Golden Retrievers, Bourbon Rules, And A Riverfront Rental

from Spandex & Wine · host Robin Hackney

The bourbon trail taught me something I didn’t expect: the best “fun facts” stick when they come with a story and a simple way to remember them. After a quick Louisville getaway (yes, I’m learning to say it right), I’m sharing the riverfront house surprise, the porch coffee views with rowing teams and barges, and why Dave and I love traveling for the history behind what we’re tasting. Then we get practical with a question that comes up all the time: what’s the difference between bourbon and whiskey? I break it down in plain English with an analogy you can repeat at your next happy hour. You’ll learn why every bourbon is whiskey but not every whiskey is bourbon, plus the key bourbon rules like made in the United States, at least 51% corn, and aging in new charred oak barrels with nothing added for flavor or color. Finally, I’m kicking off a new wellness series that looks beneath the surface, literally. We’re talking skin health as a clue to what’s happening inside your body, including the connections between nutrition and inflammation, highly processed foods and seed oils, liver health, gut health, hormones, stress, sleep, hydration, skincare, and habits. Some of these topics are still being researched and a few may challenge what you’ve always believed, but we’re choosing curiosity over fear so you can make informed decisions that fit your life. If you like real-life stories mixed with clear wellness takeaways, follow or subscribe so you don’t miss what’s next, and if the show helps you, share it with a friend and leave a review.Support the showThanks so much for listening!
