<p>Episode 21 calls for a celebration and we're doing it right. Three bottles, all carrying a 21-year age statement, go head-to-head on the Talking Shit Today rating scale. X cracks open his raffle-won Knob Creek 21 Year Kentucky Straight Bourbon, Big Red brings the Redbreast 21 Year Irish Whiskey, and the night gets derailed in the best possible way by a 140-proof Rare Character Limited Release Light Whiskey Batch #5 that broke Lumpy's brain in real time.</p><p>Then we flip the script on Kyle for once, he might not be the asshole. We dig into milestones, crossroads, and the choices that made us who we are. Plus: what does turning 21 actually look like when you look back on it?

e. 20 War of the Wheaters, Whiskey Riot Recap & Men’s Mental Health: Going Deeper
<p>X and Lumpy go head-to-head in a blind tasting showdown between two wheated bourbon legends — Weller Antique 107 and Old Fitzgerald 7 Year — while reflecting on a wild night at the Orlando Whiskey Riot (including a lost phone, a surprise fan encounter, and bottles they definitely didn’t leave with). The guys then take the mental health conversation a floor deeper, unpacking stoicism, emotional bank accounts, the difference between reacting and responding, and why your happiness matters more than being right. Plus: Am I the Asshole returns with a bourbon abandonment dilemma, and a teaser for episode 21’s very special age-statement bottle.</p><p><br></p><p>🥃 Topics: Blind wheated bourbon tasting | Whiskey Riot Orlando recap | Stoicism & anger | Men’s mental health | AITA: the allocated bottle</p><p><br></p><p>📞 If you’re struggling: 988 — call, text, or chat.

e. 19 Three Batches, One Winner, and Kyle Sold the Bottle
<p><strong>We finally crack all three batches of Fire and Flask Didymium side by side and let the table decide which one wins. Spoiler: the char makes all the difference. Big Red is back from South Texas with tales from the Whiskey Warriors RGV chapter kickoff, including a pour of Russell’s 15 that may have been the bottle of the night. We dig deeper into what anger is really masking, why men’s emotions always get read as aggression, and what HALT has to do with all of it. Plus, Kyle sold a bottle he had no business selling and no, paying you back does not fix it. We also preview the Orlando Whiskey Riot and remind you there are over 200 pours waiting. Cheers.</strong></p>
