Summary

Rob Dietrich is the currently the Master Distiller of Metallica's Blackened American Whiskey, though he may have the most diverse resume in his field, reflecting a man that remains impossible to categorize (and hard to hold down for long). Rob is a combat veteran who joined the Army in his twenties and served three tours, one of them being the incident referred to as "Black Hawk Down". He's a lifelong die-hard music fan of every genre, who chooses to have a record player in his home instead of a television. Rob also has an impressive music career, formerly having worked for Bill Graham Presents for a decade (his first assignment for the world famous promoter was The Tibetan Freedom Concert in 1996, which made an indelible impression and impact on his life). This another episode that feels like "Jaymee's made a new best friend" (which seem to be happening more often these days). This episode was the brainchild of Jaymee's brother Benjamin Carpenter, who works for Rob and Metallica at Blackened. Also discussed: why vinyl records and coolections are important Big Black (and other groups you haven't heard of that we have) details you never hear about joining the army and being in combat how psychedelics & going off the grid reduced combat PTSD why fireworks are lame for veterans (and dogs) the importance of listening to your children trusting intuition How to keep your sanity in the hell of war the car ride w/ Beastie Boy Adam Yauch that changed his life what it's like to meet and work for your hero's Pioneering Black Noise Sonic Enhancement at Blackened FEATURED GUEST: Rob Dietrich (@whiskeyrob on IG) MORE ABOUT BLACKENED: www.blackenedwhiskey.com FEATURED MUSIC: "Nothing Else Matters" by Metallica (performed by Phoebe Bridgers) + "Bodhisattva Vow" by Beastie Boys.
