S3 Ep10: Shootin' The Sh!t...Again – Part 1: Books, Bourbon, Bad Decisions
<p><strong>Join us on our </strong><a href="https://patreon.com/nerdherfers" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer"><strong>Patreon</strong></a><strong> for full episodes, extended content, giveaways and more!</strong></p><p><br></p><p>Welcome back to the show where the bourbon is poured generously, the cigars are lit responsibly-ish, and the conversation has absolutely no adult supervision.</p><p>It's been a while since we've all been able to get together, so this week we're throwing out the agenda, ignoring the outline, and embracing the chaos with <strong>"Shootin' The Sh!t...Again – Part 1."</strong></p><p>That's right—we're talking about whatever happens to wander into our nicotine-and-bourbon-fueled brains. Books we're reading. Shows we're watching. Why some actors are secretly brilliant despite appearing in movies that feel like they were financed by a fever dream. Looking at you, <strong>Nicolas Cage</strong>.</p><p>We'll probably discuss a few nerdy things, a few non-nerdy things, and at least one topic that starts out completely normal before taking a hard left turn into territory no one saw coming. As usual.</p>

S3 Ep9: Westerns!
<p><a href="https://patreon.com/nerdherfers" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer"><strong>Join us on Patreon</strong></a><strong> for FULL episodes, bonus content, community, giveaways and more! </strong></p><p><br></p><p>This week we’re riding into the dusty frontier to talk all things Westerns — the gunslingers, the antiheroes, the lawmen, the outlaws, and why the Western genre still hits so hard even after all these years. From the classic cowboy legends of John Wayne and Clint Eastwood to modern masterpieces like Tombstone, Unforgiven, and Yellowstone, we’re digging into why the West never really died — it just got meaner, darker, and more interesting.</p><p>In our glasses this week is 1845 bourbon — rich, bold, and smooth enough to make you think you could survive a duel at high noon.</p><p>And for the smoke, we’re firing up the legendary Toscano Master Aged #5 — a rustic, old-world cigar with enough grit and character to feel right at home around a campfire outside a saloon.</p><p>So pour a glass, light one up, and join us as we talk shootouts, spaghetti Westerns, unforgettable one-liners, and whether modern Hollywood still knows how to make a proper cowboy movie.</p>

S3 Ep8: All About That Bourbon
<p><strong>Join us on our Patreon for full episodes, bonus content and more!</strong></p><p><br></p><p>This week, we’re diving headfirst into America’s greatest contribution to civilization besides air conditioning and sarcasm: <strong>bourbon</strong>. Where did it come from? Who decided charred barrels were a good idea? And how did corn juice become a personality trait for half the country?</p><p>We’re talking bourbon history, bourbon myths, bourbon science, and the fine line between “collector” and “guy with 47 unopened bottles.” From frontier distillers to modern hype culture, we’re breaking down why bourbon went from backwoods whiskey to liquid gold with a secondary market more intense than sneaker drops.</p><p>For this little whiskey expedition, we’re sampling the <strong>RD1 Amburana Cask Bourbon</strong>, bringing sweet spice and enough flavor to make your taste buds file a noise complaint, alongside the rich, dessert-like <strong>Woodford Reserve Double Oaked</strong>—because sometimes more oak is exactly the right amount of oak.</p><p>And tying it all together, we’re lighting up the <strong>Faustino’s Candela cigar</strong>, a smoke greener than a bourbon rookie asking for ice in a barrel-proof pour.</p><p>So pour a glass, light one up, and join us as we talk mash bills, barrel char, bourbon lore, and why America looked at whiskey and said, “What if we made it smoother… and then argued about it forever?”</p>
