    Hey everyone, started exploring Lemmy the other week and really jumped in after the Apollo news broke.

    I’m gamer/podcaster/dad/wannabe bourbon enthusiast from Michigan.

    I have a tech role in logistics and am just looking for a chill community to be a part of.

    Currently consumed with exploring Hyrule.

      Welcome! As a fellow wannabe bourbon enthusiast who has now discovered that rye and scotch are my real preference, what’s been some of your favorite bottles?

        Barely scratched the surface…

        A friend gifted me a pint of Buffalo Trace and I’m working on some Makers Mark now.

        Coming from craft beer, it’s been a slow entry.

          I feel the same way. I’m a fan of what Woodford is doing and their stuff is super clean. A friend of mine is a huge bourbon fan so he’s been a good resource. Good luck to you on your journey!

      Tell me about your podcast! I’ve been wanting to start one for a long time, but I’m anxious people will be bored with me talking.

        It’s changed a few times over the many years, but now basically slice of life: parenting/work/wins/struggles with a dash of gaming sprinkled in.

        If you want to start one, just do it! I’ve had so many recorded conversations with my best friend because of it!

      What part of Michigan? I’m an enthusiast for spirits of all kinds, and I’d love more friends to share the hobby with. I actually made a custom cocktail inspired by Zelda back on TotK launch day
