They’re closing out 2025 and stepping into 2026 with pure Steady Pour energy: jokes flying, glasses clinking, and a real reflection on how much the brand leveled up this year. The crew talks about how the podcast and events grew from “this is scary” to “we’re really built for this,” and they highlight the moments that made 2025 feel like a true expansion year. Tony gets put on the hot seat for his most memorable “single barrel curation” (and yes, the story comes with classic family chaos). They also revisit some of the biggest experiences that helped put the name on the map, including collabs, tastings, and events that tested them but ultimately proved the community is real.

Then they tease what’s coming next, including plans to bring people together in a bigger way in 2026. Of course, Dry January catches a few strays, and the “mocktail vs fancy juice” debate turns into a whole thing. To top it off, each host names their favorite reviewed pours from the past year, and the final bottle they crack to end the year sparks one of those tasting-note moments you can’t script. If you want laughs, whiskey talk, and a peek at what Steady Pour is building next, this New Year’s recap is the one to run back

The crew rings in the holidays the only way they know how—with whiskey, jokes, and a full-on Secret Santa bottle exchange. 🎄🥃 From unexpected gifts and heavy hitters to playful trash talk and instant temptation to crack bottles on the spot, the vibes are festive and unfiltered. They revisit their go-to holiday pour tradition, debating how certain seasonal releases hit differently year to year and why some bottles never make it past Thanksgiving. Along the way, they talk gift-giving wins and fails for whiskey lovers, overrated accessories, and the unspoken rules of bringing bottles to someone else’s house. There’s music talk, family stories, big laughs, and honest reactions that feel like you’re sitting right at the table with them. This episode is less about scores and more about community, tradition, and enjoying great pours with people you rock with. If you love holiday whiskey vibes, Secret Santa chaos, and classic Steady Pour energy, this is the perfect episode to sip along with. Cheers and happy holidays. 🍻🎅

The fellas sit down with Wendy Peveich, founder and blender of Archer Eland, for a conversation that’s part whiskey tasting, part life masterclass. She breaks down her journey from healthcare to whiskey, why rye deserves more respect, and how “single barrel curation” is more than just picking a good barrel. The crew works through multiple rye expressions that challenge everything you think rye is supposed to taste like, sparking real debate at the table. Along the way, Wendy opens up about risk, faith, grief, confidence, and what it really takes to build a brand from scratch. There are laughs, proof-snob side-eyes, unexpected flavor reactions, and a few moments that feel more like a TED Talk than a podcast. This episode goes way beyond the glass and dives into purpose, perseverance, and betting on yourself. If you love rye, entrepreneurship, or hearing how passion turns into execution, this is one you don’t want to miss. Pull up and experience the journey.
