Citizen Kane / Eagle Rare

Citizen Kane / Eagle Rare

For the Labor Day weekend, Brad and Bob finally watch what is arguably the greatest film of all time, Orson Welles' Citizen Kane. This film was written, directed, and produced by Welles, who also starred in the film at age 25. The guys discuss Welles' performance, as well as the backstory of the film, its fallout upon release, and how it holds up nearly 80 years later. 

Meanwhile, they revisit one of their favorite bourbons from back in the day: Eagle Rare. This was one of the first whiskies the guys ever tried together. Does it transcend their nostalgia, or is it just an average bourbon?
