New Episode available now

Mike and Alex explain the podcast, its goals and what to expect in upcoming episodes, including special guests (hopefully). Neither of them are on their “A” game but water works miracles for these old guys.

Remember the name of the podcast? Mike and Alex finally have a little whiskey and whine about how this all started. It grew from a dash of sweet vermouth, then a shot and it all went downhill from there.

Mike and Alex talk about having teenaged to college aged kids, including being introduced to capri sun shots. When do we become the “cool parents”? Update on what to expect, including the wives getting a whole episode to correct everything we got wrong in season one.

Mike and Alex define rehydrating, especially at our age. When did water become necessary instead of just “hair of the dog” or a warm beer next to your bed from the night before?

Episode 5 starts with the dream of adding a fart machine to the podcast. Mike tells the story of his ride along glory and Alex goes streaking.

Episode 6 is all about how both Mike and Alex can't seem to learn when to shut up or at least be a little quieter. Mike gets hit by a car and breaks his pager chain (90's problems) and Alex learns to keep his mouth shut in Congress.

This week Mike and Alex drink a little George Dickel and laugh about blow up dolls found in weird places. Ever drive around a dozen drunk adults and pass by a taco shop? Yeah, Mike and Alex both went deaf from those screams for food. Also, there may be a story about an inflatable party sheep, no context given.

When will Mike and Alex ever learn to shut up. Whether its a look or the actual phrase, we never quite catch on to the hints. This week Mike and Alex drink Smokewagon from Nevada Distilling Company. Mike brings his party bus to a recital and is, of course, told to shut up and sit down. Alex gets run over by a bull and we learn about human peacocks.

Well it was bound to happen, Mike and Alex broke a few things and now have to fix it their way. We have all fixed things in the cheapest way possible in our lives. Mike messed up the wiring in the bus to the point the horn turned on the stereo. Alex duct taped the bed of his truck back on in the woods. Remember, we are looking for ideas and stories, so connect with us on Insta and the website.

Welcome to the new year! This week Mike and Alex talk about being told to do something either verbally or with a "look". They try to act like the kids fear them but we all know they do not. Mike and Alex whine about ballet pointe shoes and why they don't last nearly long enough. Some of the kids are bringing home the life like babies for class and it is not going well for them. Introducing an actual rating system for the whiskey we drink. From ruby, gold, high gold, lightning and lightning gold, they will rate each weeks drink. This week Mike and Alex are drinking Heaven Hills bottled in bond.

We used to be able to hold our bladders for hours, now it seems that if we sneeze, we pee. Mike and Alex talk about their kids peeing in public when they were little. Neither of them can figure out joint restroom situations at restaurants. Oh, and Mike did something on a golf course once. This week we drink Kupu whiskey from Maui, Hawaii.

Our favorite taphouse, Tapphoria, has a couple hard seltzers on tap. When you combine the two, it's lovingly called The Gangbang! This episode, Mike and Alex talk about other inappropriate things they have yelled in open places, or at sports venues. Alex carries a spray bottle of water for people misbehaving. This week we taste The Representative.

Mike and Alex both grew up with lots of room to roam and many "great" ideas as kids. It's amazing that they both survived this long. Jumping over flames on bikes, BB gun wars and manure. They have lots of redneck cred. This week they taste Whistlepig Farmstock Oregon edition.

The story goes, someone asked for two fingers of scotch and one of our wives poured it like the fingers were vertical, a bit more than they wanted. Overpouring, bad concoctions and having no clue what we were drinking, we have made some poor decisions in our drinking lives. This week Mike talks about the time he bought a yard of Long Island iced tea in Las Vegas. Alex learns he can't mix on the spot so he might as well premake everything he can. We sample Mike's go to whiskey this week, Angels Envy.

Jerks, idiots, we have been called a lot of things but we prefer Sassy. We can get a little mouthy and it usually gets us in trouble with most of our families. This week, a Whiskey N Whine first, Cort Johnson joins the podcast as our first and most fantastic guest. Cort is a 25 year professional in the radio business. He and his wife Randi are the inspiration for Mike and Alex and the Whiskey N Whine podcast. This weeks conversation is all over the board but a great time with a fantastic friend. This week we taste Widow Jane Decadence

The elimination chamber, a wrestling ring or the bathroom? Filing some paperwork, dropping the kids off at the pool, we use a lot of euphemisms just to let our friends and family know we need to poop. Why can’t we just have a hand signal or a look? Is it more fun to come up with other ways to say basic needs?

Our buddy Brian, who has been around the liquor industry for more than a while, drops by to tie Mike and Alex up and school us in the way of Bottled in Bond. Along the way, he also corrects a few myths around whiskey and bourbon and helps Mike and Alex make informed ratings of their drink of the day, instead of just the grunting noise they usually make.

For boys, either adults or kids, every shower is a urinal. Alex experienced a set of showers with urinals on the walls, because we can’t be trusted not to pee on everything. This week Mike and Alex tell stories on bad places to be caught peeing and make plans for new art projects this summer. Alex becomes an astronaut, in his own mind.

A Whiskey N Whine first, two guests at one time. Our buddies Jordan and Andy drop into the podcast for a hell of a good time. We are getting ready to celebrate St. Patrick’s while tasting Gold Spot Irish Whiskey. This episode goes off the rails pretty quick, but the stories are epic.

Alex and Mike have run into some interesting names as well as having been called a few unsavory ones as well. This week Mike and Alex taste Eagle Rare 10 year old while going over the funniest names they have run into over the years. From Booger to Honey Bucket, there are some creative ones out there.

It’s Spring Break! Mike and Alex are in white T-shirts, ready to win the contest. This week, Mike and Alex wonder how they survived dangerous trips, questionable food and getting across the border, sotally tober. We are tasting a chardonnay barrel finished whiskey from Amador on this episode.

Welcome to the Whiskey N Whine podcast, rhymes with mase, John and Dawn. This week we talk to our long time friends about being gassy, holding it until you get home and go down the urban dictionary hole. Listeners be warned, this is certainly an 18+ episode. We sample an easily found bottle of Jack Daniels Barrel Proof Single Barrel, since we are still searching for a platinum winner.
