Dan Aykroyd didn’t just star in Ghostbusters—he believes in ghosts, aliens, and psychic energy. Naturally, he made a vodka filtered through ancient crystals and bottled in a glass skull.
In this Heavy Pour, Matt, Jason, and Kendra explore the paranormal backstory behind Crystal Head Vodka, including the legend of the Mitchell-Hedges skull, ancient Mayan curses, and a daughter who rebranded a literal “Skull of Doom” into a cancer-curing love crystal.
It’s weird. It’s wild. It’s a vodka story only Arsenic Culture could pour out.

Wild Turkey asked Buffalo Trace for help. Buffalo Trace said, “Sure, we’ll use your recipe... but we’re gonna do it our way.” Fourteen years later, Wild Turkey tasted the final product and basically said, “Yeah, this ain’t it.” What followed is a bourbon hand-me-down saga involving secret barrels, shady brokers, inflated secondary prices, and a bunch of bottles now floating around under a lot of different labels.
Was this a rare collectible masterpiece—or just a $3,500 accident?
In this episode of The Spill, Matt, Jason, and special guest Kendra dive into the infamous Buff Turkey debacle, tasting the whiskey, unpacking the shady labeling, and debating whether this whole thing was a smart pivot or bourbon dumpster fire.
🦃💥 You be the judge.

We crack open a bottle of Burgundy and uncork one of the wildest scams in wine history: the rise and fall of Rudy Kurniawan—the man who sold millions in fake bottles to billionaires, auction houses, and wine snobs alike.

Matt takes Jason (and you) through Rudy’s rise from mystery man to collector god, his infamous $24.7 million wine auction, and the moment it all came crashing down thanks to a French winemaker who called bullshit.

If you’ve ever dropped $15 on a bottle and wondered who the hell spends $500,000 on fermented grape juice, this one’s for you.

What happens when a liquor store claims they landed the oldest Old Forester barrel pick ever — and then quietly walks it back? In this episode of The Spill, Matt and Jason dive into a controversial New York store pick that was supposed to be 11 years old… but wasn’t.

We break down:

• How this pick blew up on the secondary market
  
  
  
• The age statement “mistake” that raised red flags
  
  
  
• Whether this was a shady move or a genuine slip-up
  
  
  
• And of course… how the damn thing actually tastes

Welcome to Arsenic Culture. This Heavy Pour dives deep into the elusive, “allegedly illegal” world of the bourbon secondary market. From Facebook secret groups and coded lingo to John Wick status bottles and $2,000 price tags, this episode exposes how rare bourbon gets bought, sold, and—maybe—smuggled in the modern age.

We talk insider etiquette, scam red flags, Buffalo Trace’s crackdown, and how collectible bottles like Pappy and Blanton’s turned into high-stakes currency.

Are crème liqueurs the ultimate guilty pleasure—or just boozy sugar bombs disguised as dessert? In this episode of The Spill, Matt and Jason crack open two neon-colored, cereal-inspired cream liqueurs—Bedrock Bliss (Fruity Pebbles) and King Cake Cream—and get brutally honest about what’s actually inside these indulgent drinks. From the science behind why they don’t spoil to the insane calorie count of a single pour, this is your crash course in the creamy side of liquor. Plus: a quick dive into colonial milk punch, clarified cocktails, and a surprise mention of Fight Milk (yes, really).
