Description

In September of 2021, the Bo Brothers made its first official visit to the Bourbon Festival and one of the legends they ran into was former legendary Master Distiller JW "Jim" Rutledge.  Now one may worry (if you're a couple goofy DJ's) may be cast aside by some of Jim's stature when approached for an interview request.  Not to be deterred, the Bo Brothers anxiously approached Jim Rutledge and he welcomed the opportunity to be  a guest of 2 Shots on a Barrel Podcast with open arms.  Fast forward a few months and we figure out that Jim Rutledge is actually living in Marion County, loves Rosewood Restaurant (one of the favorites of the Bo Brothers) and works out in the Pearl of Lebanon's Lebanon Health and Fitness which just happens to be the home of the 2 Shots Studio.  So all things were complete nirvana and the next thing you know, one of the legends is drinking one of his unicorns (High Plains Rye), talking about his career and JBow hitting golf balls into his windows and just having a grand ole conversation.  Dreams do come true when the stars all align.  So sit back, pour yourself your favorite juice, and enjoy listening to one of the legendary figures in the Kentucky Bourbon business.  #HighPlainsRye #RosewoodRestaurant #GolfBalls #JBowHitJWRutledgeHouse #Bourbon #BourbonTrail #KentuckyBourbonFestival #LivingLegend #FourRosesBourbon

Join the Bo Brothers, a couple of long time goofy radio DJ's as they go on a quest to learn more about Bourbon especially because they live in the Heart of Bourbon Country and also realizing they really didn't know a lot about the world famous liquid - except they do enjoy it from time to time. The Bo Brothers look to interview the experts in the Bourbon industry and other things that are unique to the Heart of Central Kentucky like Wineries, Craft Breweries, Country Ham, Caves, Kayaking, Trail Riding, Kentucky Derby, Kentucky Restaurants, Kentucky Foods, Kentucky Tourism, and so much more. The Bo Brothers usually pair a select Kentucky bourbon (and occasionally even a premium cigar) with great, educational and sometimes absolutely ridiculous discussions about one of the treasures of Kentucky... the HEART! Join the Bo Brothers for a truly unique trek to learn more about the Heart of Central Kentucky!
