Show Notes
Adam and writer/whiskey expert/Kentucky resident Zach Johnston discuss all of the wild and wonderful conspiracies that have emanated from the state of Kentucky. Does Mitch McConnell's health come up? Of course it does! As does the real story behind Cocaine Bear, the Burr Conspiracy, the weird influence of Christianity on Louisville coffee shops, the highly suspicious 2019 slaughter of a bunch of llamas, the Pope Lick Monster, and so very much more!
