Back to EpisodesEP 38 Jefferson’s Begins: A Pour, A History Lesson, A Spiral
Description
This week, the guys are broadcasting from what can only be described as Studio 2.1: part podcast room, part greenhouse, part plant‑rescue center. Between ficus drama, cold‑weather casualties, and debates about which trees get custody upstairs, the episode opens with peak Old Fashioned Friendship chaos.
From there, the conversation shifts into merch madness — hat sizing, shirt fits, sticker sheets, and the dream of one day owning a heat press that doesn’t cost a small fortune. The boys dig into what’s coming next for the brand and how the studio might double as a print shop once the trees stop taking over.
Then it’s bourbon time. A surprise pickup of Blanton’s Black straight from Japan sparks a whole discussion about labels, rarity, and whether it’s actually any different from the U.S. release. That leads perfectly into the first pour of the Jefferson’s lineup, complete with a quick history lesson on why the brand is named after Thomas Jefferson and not… well, the other one.
Along the way you’ll hear:
• Conspiracy theories about phones listening
• Backyard mud disasters
• Stress‑cooking entire chickens
• The economics of lunch
• And the eternal truth that leftovers are king
It’s everything you expect from Old Fashioned Friendship — bourbon, banter, and beautifully unhinged storytelling from start to finish.
