The Searchers / Woodford Reserve Kentucky Straight Malt Whiskey

The Searchers / Woodford Reserve Kentucky Straight Malt Whiskey

Bob and Brad continue their series on director John Ford with 1956's The Searchers. Long revered by filmmakers as Ford's best and most influential film, it's also one of his most controversial by today's standards. Our hosts discuss star John Wayne in a career-best performance before diving into some of the film's complex racial issues.

Meanwhile, they honor Woodford Reserve master distiller Chris Morris by trying Woodford Reserve Malt Whiskey during this, an episode on his favorite film. Our hosts are huge Woodford fans, but how will the malt whiskey stack up to Woodford's famous bourbon?
