Recommended if You Like is Boing Boing's weekly podcast of Brian Heater's cafe conversations with musicians, cartoonists, writers, and other creative types.
Colin Spoelman quite literally wrote the book on home whiskey distillation. It's a subject he knows a thing or two about, having transformed the output of a single internet-purchased pot still into a major microdistillery — New York City's longest running, no less, at the ripe old age of four. It's a terrific book, though it did firmly crush any fantasies I had of running my own apartment-based distillery. Thankfully, however, there are more terrific whiskies in the world than ever before, thanks to a recent explosion in craft distilleries. The list certainly includes Spoelman's King's County, maker of some fine bourbon and the smoothest moonshine I've ever tasted.
