  • "Say a Prayer for the Thin Kid" - Horror Movie with Thomas S. Moore Bourbon
    Sep 6 2024

    This week, Stephen and Mark spend a little time talking about the most recent story from author Paul Tremblay, "Horror Movie". They will talk about the twists, spirals, and rabbit holes truly good authors like Trembay can create. Horror Movie is a escheresque, gravity defying maze of mirrors. A sophisticated story needs an equally sophisticated bourbon paired with it. Tonight, the boys will sample Thomas S. Moore Cognac Cask bourbon.

  • What We Forgot About Twice Removed - OOPSISODE with Author, Zee Lacson with Elijah Craig Bourbon
    Aug 16 2024

    Oh my. Author, Zee Lacson, sticks around after the initial recording to do the oopsisode with Stephen and Mark. How many bourbons can one author take? All of them. Especially when we're talking about allies. Spend another 12 minutes with Zee Lacson and the boys as they talk about allies in the book "Twice Removed."

    Zee Lacson has had practice in different professions. Engineer. Teacher. Photographer. Visual artist. Writer. But throughout her life, she has always been a Dreamer.

    The Woolgathering Trilogy is her dream come true.

    Born and raised in Manila, Philippines, with her grandparents, father, and twin brothers, she currently lives the dream in the northern suburbs of Chicagoland with her husband and twin sons.

    She enjoys good coffee. And sushi. And wine. And ice cream. And cake … though not necessarily together. Or in that order.

    Reverie was her first published work of fiction. It was a finalist at the 2021 Illinois Author Project.
    Revenant, the sequel to Reverie, was released in 2021.
    Réveil, the final in the series, was released May 2023. Twice Removed is her latest book, and will be released in 2024. Website: ZeeLacson.com

    Aug 6 2024

    WELCOME TO THE ANNUAL RONALD MALFI LOVE FEST.

    Seriously, it's kind of sick how much we love this guy's writing. We have a problem. We need counseling, or perhaps we just need some Copper & Cask Bourbon to pair with writing.
