#131 - Numbers Matter - A Chat With Two Female Mayors in the Fastest Growing County in Texas
Description
Whiskey of the Week: Balcones True Blue (Blue Corn Whiskey) — butterscotch, vanilla tasting notes. Firebro pours his out in disgust. Also sampled – Red River Distillery’s Vermejo Añejo agave spirit (aka “not-tequila tequila”).
The Bros kicked things off with their usual mix of raunch and banter, warning listeners (again) not to look up “donkey punch.” They joked about becoming feminists with back-to-back female guests, then welcomed Amanda Black (returning) and Crystal Cardwell (mayor of Newark).
Conversation roamed through Boyd speed traps, regional quirks (is it “flip” or “flick” someone off?), and Florida vs Texas Gulf Coast beaches — with a joke that “Trump renamed it the Gulf of America.”
Big highlight: Camp Quit Your Bitchin’ — a new glamping resort on Lake Bridgeport with stagecoach cabins, futuristic vessels, saloon, beer garden, and tetherball. Its grand opening hits Labor Day weekend. Guest Crystal’s marketing firm Pugnacious drives their campaigns, with a fiery, media-savvy approach that could boost shows like Whiskey Bros.
Side trails included aviation streaming apps, small-plane claustrophobia, and fishing nostalgia. All delivered in the Bros’ trademark style: local politics + whiskey + unapologetic humor.
