One Listener, Two Bourbons, and a Table Knife S12/E11 #143

This week on We Can Help with Dave & Woody: bourbon, blunted knives, Pittsburgh history, and exactly one listener surviving a brewery meet-up.Dave recaps his trip to Pittsburgh for Sarah’s MBA graduation, including riding the Duquesne Incline, touring the legendary University of Pittsburgh “Temple of Learning,” and paying homage to Dan Marino’s childhood neighborhood. Along the way, the guys dive into steel-money history, Vanderbilt fortunes, NFL Draft merch disasters, and why Pittsburgh might secretly be one of America’s coolest cities.Meanwhile, Woody reports back from the wildly exclusive Yancey Brewing listener gathering (attendance: one loyal fan and several beers), while Dave waxes poetic about Maker's Mark bourbon, cigars, and the magic of wheated whiskey. The episode somehow also detours into the invention of table knives, sporks, YouTube rabbit holes, NASCAR, and a massive $15 billion bourbon-industry power play involving Brown–Forman.It’s history, travel, booze, random facts, and two guys having the kind of conversation that somehow starts with dental work and ends with Cardinal Richelieu inventing safer cutlery.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/we-can-help-with-dave-woody--5807494/support.
