Bourbon & a Buddy

From 'Take The North' (subscribe here): David Haugh and Dan Wiederer listen and react to what Bears special teams coordinator Richard Hightower had to say about the NFL's new kickoff rules.

From the Bar Talk with Jenna podcast, Jenna Duddleston talks relationships, mental health and growing up Chicago royalty (Shinnick's Pub is one of my favorite bars on the planet).

David Hochberg has been a top-rated home loan expert in the state of Illinois for twenty years. He's featured prominently on the majority of radio and TV stations in Chicago, has his own show on WGN 720-AM and more importantly -- he's a wonderful human.  If you're a millennial considered about whether or not you can afford a home or have no idea how to even go about obtaining a home loan, David is your guy. This episode is full of laughs and legit info.  And as always, thanks to Wyoming Whiskey for the liquid gold to go along with the conversation.

Tori Rubenstein is the woman behind both the White Sox Talk & Bulls Talk social media accounts at NBC Sports Chicago. She's a social media maven & absolutely hilarious. We talk about that, smoking cigars with Ozzie Guillen, being a professional woman in sports media, dating as a millennial in Chicago, when it's appropriate to put a 'label' on things & dudes who hold onto Hinge just a little bit too long;

Lawrence the Band is absolutely blowing up. You've seen them on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Stephen Colbert and all over the country on The Sounds of Summer tour with MisterWives. Their smash hit Don't Lose Sight peaked at 33 on the Billboard Hot 100 Top-40 chart, a MASSIVE achievement for an independent group. Listen as I talk baseball, music and starting a band with your family with founding member Clyde Lawrence and his younger brother Linus.

In the second episode of Bourbon & a Buddy, Shane Riordan talks with White Sox General Manager Rick Hahn about a hell of a lot more than just baseball. Rick calls Shane out for not drinking bourbon at 11:30a in the morning, talks about his inability to cook but strong ability to order DoorDash, remembers the trade that sent Jose Quintana to the Cubs for Eloy Jimenez and Dylan Cease, talks Tony La Russa and lineup construction, comments on whether or not he has a lack of resources in free agency and wonders how MLB can market their players better.
