🎙️🥃 WICKED WHISKEY PODCAST | EPISODE 11: AFTER PARTY
“It’s More Than What’s in the Glass” 💙

This episode hits a little differently.

In Episode 11, Matt welcomes his sister, Valerie, to join him and John “Pop Pop” Mondoux for what might be one of our most emotional and meaningful episodes yet.

We sit down to reflect on our Pour It Forward ALS fundraiser for Jonathan, the incredible support from the bourbon community, and what it truly means when we say, “It’s more than what’s in the glass.”

For Valerie, this episode is an opportunity to see a side of the bourbon community she never knew existed. A community of people who started as strangers, became friends, and came together to support a family going through something unimaginable.

Valerie opens up about her journey as a full-time caregiver, the daily struggles, the emotional toll, and the strength it takes to care for someone you love while watching ALS change their life.

We also share Jonathan's story, his battle with ALS, and how this devastating disease has affected not only him but everyone who loves him.

There are laughs, tears, difficult conversations, and moments that remind us why we started Wicked Whiskey Society in the first place.

Of course, we still talk bourbon. 🥃 But this time, what's in the glass takes a back seat to the people sitting around it.

This isn't just another whiskey podcast. This is family, friendship, love, heartbreak, and a community coming together when it matters most.

Grab a pour, pull up a chair, and join us for one of the most personal, emotional, and tear-jerking episodes we've ever recorded.

💙 It's More Than What's in the Glass.

🥎❤️ END OF THE ROAD FOR A.K. 47… BUT WHAT A HELL OF A RUN! 🏆

Well, Bourbon Fam… we gave it everything we had.

Our girl Addie made it all the way to the SEMIFINALS of Youth Athlete of the Year before coming up short. And while we would’ve loved to see her go all the way, we’re damn proud of her! 💪❤️

To EVERYONE who voted, shared, donated, rallied their friends, and supported our girl along the way… THANK YOU! Seriously. Y’all showed up in a BIG way, and our family appreciates every bit of it. 🥹🤝

🥃 NOW FOR THE BOURBON BUSINESS!

We made it through TIER 2 of the bourbon giveaway, which means we’ve got some bottles to give away! 🎉🔥

🎟️ I need a little time to tally up all the entries and make sure everything is accounted for.

🏆 We’ll be doing a couple of drawings soon, and I’ll reach out directly to the winners!

No more voting. No more campaigning. Just a whole lot of gratitude and some bourbon headed to a few lucky supporters. 🥃

The bottles are cool. But the way this community showed up for my daughter? That’s what I’ll remember. ❤️

🎮🥃 APPARENTLY I’M PLAYING TWO GAMES OF POKÉMON NOW. GOTTA CATCH ’EM ALL!

Let’s be real. Bourbon hunting is basically adult Pokémon. 😂

🥃 Find the rare ones.
💸 Spend entirely too much money chasing them.
🏆 Convince yourself you need just ONE more.

GOTTA CATCH ’EM ALL!

But apparently I’ve unlocked a whole new side quest… CHALLENGE COINS! 🪙🔥

And my boy Matt from @twofoolsonebourbon was the FIRST to go all in backing this crazy idea. What started as a little Friends in Bourbon Places project has blown up in its own way.

Matt sent some awesome goodies, but the real treasures were his Air Force MAINEiacs challenge coins. 🇺🇸🫡

Now I’m out here trying to collect coins from every damn GYM LEADER I meet. 😂

Military units, bourbon clubs, careers, organizations, communities… everybody’s got a story, and I want those stories represented at the Bourbon Sanctuary.

🪙 GOT A CHALLENGE COIN? LET’S SWAP!

Because unlike bourbon, the best part of this collection isn’t what’s sitting on the shelf. It’s the friendships behind every piece.

Amici Fideles. Trusted Friends. 🤝

💾 Save this for your next coin swap
❤️ Like if you’re collecting adult Pokémon too

🥃🚗 GUYS… I ACTUALLY DID PRETTY GOOD ON THIS ROAD TRIP.

Minnesota ➡️ Wisconsin ➡️ Kentucky ➡️ home.

And somehow I only came back with a couple bottles and some bar mats.

Responsible. Mature. Financially disciplined.

As I’ve taught my kids to say…

PSYCH! 😂🥃📦

Of course I came home with a HAUL.

Now, in my defense, most of these bottles are for other buddies.

At least that’s the story I’m telling myself, and I’d appreciate everyone respecting my version of events. 😂

Huge shoutout to my guy @crown_and_creed_reserve for doing some serious behind-the-scenes procuring and securing for the crew. 🤝🥃 When bourbon friends start coordinating across state lines, things escalate quickly.

👀 BIG HAUL REVEAL COMING. First, I need a little time to wind down from the drive, unpack, and figure out exactly what the hell followed me home. 😂📦🥃

This is basically what Friends in Bourbon Places has become:

🚗 Road trips
🥃 Bottle pickups
📦 Bourbon muling
🤝 “Hey, can you grab one for me?”
💸 Absolutely fictional financial responsibility

The bourbon brought us together. Friendship is what kept us here.

Now I’ve just got to figure out how many of these I can legitimately claim “aren’t mine” before somebody checks the shelves. 👀😂

💾 Save this and come back for the haul reveal
❤️ Like if “most of these are for friends” sounds completely reasonable
👀 Follow because you’re definitely gonna want to see what came home

🎯 BOTTLE ACQUISITION: MISSION ACCOMPLISHED

Indian Trail ABC posted that it had two bottles of Little Book The Infinite Edition III. The mission: get there before they were gone. One made it back to Whiskey Recon. 🫡🥃

Freddie Noe’s 2026 blend carries forward a portion of Edition II and adds bourbons aged 9, 11, and 23 years. It comes in at 118.3 proof. The exact mash bill percentages and proportions of the new components haven’t been disclosed, so I’ll leave those off the intel sheet for now.

The published tasting notes point to tobacco, caramel, and butterscotch on the nose; vanilla and light barrel char on the palate; and a long, warm finish with dark fruit. My own tasting notes and Whiskey Recon rating are coming soon.

For adults 21+. Personal collection and review; no alcohol for sale.

🥃 IT’S MY BIRTHDAY! 🎂
What an incredible fucking year it’s been.
I’ve only been a part of this whiskey community for about a year and a half, and somehow it has turned into one of the best experiences of my life. I’ve met some incredible people, made real friendships, and crossed paths with some genuinely amazing souls.
Who the hell knew this brown liquid gold would bring so many good people together? 😂🥃
But especially this year, you guys have shown me what this community is really about. The support you’ve shown Wicked Whiskey Society, the friendships, the laughs, and especially all of the donations and support for our ALS event for Jon and my sister... I honestly struggle to find the words to explain what that means to me and my family.
So on my birthday, I really just want to say THANK YOU.
From the bottom of my heart, I appreciate every single person who has supported us, donated, shared our stuff, reached out, poured with us, or simply been along for the ride.
Love you all. 🥃❤️
Cheers to another trip around the sun and whatever the hell comes next.
It’s more than what’s in the glass. 🥃

🔥 YOU ASKED, WE DELIVERED! 🔥
We partnered up with An Obstruction of Art to finally get some official Wicked Whiskey Society merch available online! 🥃🤘
And we weren’t putting our name on some cheap-ass Gildan trash 😂
These hoodies are BADASS and seriously top quality. Super soft, comfortable, and made to actually last.
The tri-blend shirts are just as good. Lightweight, super soft, a little stretch to them, no shrink, and ridiculously comfortable.
And this is only the beginning. 👀🔥 Hats, WWS sweatpants, more designs, and our Pour It Forward / Carrion Strong ALS Event shirts will all be added soon! 💙
👉 Hit the link in our bio, head over to An Obstruction of Art, and grab some WWS merch before the event so you can come out and represent! 🥃🤘
Huge thank you to everyone who’s been asking for merch and continues to support the Wicked Whiskey Society and everything we’ve been building.
What started as a few people sharing a pour has turned into something way bigger than we ever expected.
IT’S MORE THAN WHAT’S IN THE GLASS. 🥃🤘💙

First layer of epoxy is officially down! 🪵🔥

Next up, I’m adding stickers from all the different groups and people we’ve connected with along the way.

Honestly, that might be my favorite part of this whole barrel. These groups are a huge reason why this community is so damn special. So many of you have welcomed us, supported us, shared with us, helped us out, and treated us like we’ve known each other for years.

I’ve met some genuinely amazing people through this crazy whiskey community, and I wanted this barrel to represent that. Every sticker is another group, another friendship, another story, and another part of the journey.

Love this community and the people in it. 🥃🤘

It’s more than what’s in the glass. 🥃❤️
