Ep. 42 – Men: Community Needed! An Afternoon with Willett, Wild Turkey Triumph, WhistlePig & Dave Schroeder

Ep. 42 – Men: Community Needed! An Afternoon with Willett, Wild Turkey Triumph, WhistlePig & Dave Schroeder Episode Description: In this episode of Two Guys On A Porch, Jason and Bradford are joined by longtime friend and special guest Dave Schroeder, who has spent the last 20 years in Christian publishing working alongside influential voices like Max Lucadoand John Eldredge. Together, they wrestle with a question many men feel but rarely articulate: What does it actually mean for men to live in real community—and why does it matter so much? The conversation moves beyond why community is important and gets practical about the harder question—how do you actually build it? From intentional friendships to simply showing up, Dave shares perspective shaped by decades of working with authors who speak directly to the hearts of men. On the porch, the guys revisit the same cigar from Episode 1, grounding the conversation in familiar ritual, and pour a lineup of bold whiskeys that mirror the depth of the discussion: Willett 4 Year Rye (110.6 proof) – a high-proof, family-owned classic with roots dating back to 1936. Wild Turkey Triumph Rye (102 proof) – a limited-release expression from Wild Turkey, highlighting their heritage of bold, rye-forward flavor and masterful blending. WhistlePig Boss Hog 13 Year Rye (115.8 proof) – a Vermont-based distillery known for rye-focused innovation and experimental releases. This episode is an honest, thoughtful look at brotherhood, loneliness, and the intentional choices required to build meaningful community—one pour, one cigar, and one real conversation at a time.   #MensCommunity #MensMentalHealth #MaleFriendship #Brotherhood #LonelinessEpidemic #FaithAndLife #ChristianMen #BourbonPodcast #WhiskeyTalk #RyeWhiskey #WillettRye #WildTurkeyRye #WhistlePig #CigarLifestyle #TwoGuysOnAPorch
