Episode 210 Movies We Always Watch IV: A New Hope

Join the Brotherhood (minus the missing Francis) as they discuss more of those movies they just have to stop and watch whenever they're on. 

Episode 209 Code of Honor from Voltaire

Join the Brotherhood of Snakes & Otters for another episode of Code of Honor. Francis provides the quote for the guys this episode and he goes back to one of his favorites, Voltaire. The boys don't have a lot of agreement on the chosen quote this time, so the discussion gets lively. 

Episode 208 The Gold Rushes - Yes! More Than One!

The Brotherhood of Snakes & Otters continues the series on Manifest Destiny and its effect on history. Listen in as they discuss not just the California Gold Rush, but also various others throughout history. As always there's bourbon in the middle and discussion on the why and what it all meant. Plus a surprise special guest joins us for this episode.

Episode 207 Code of Honor from Josh Billings

Cajun provides a quote from Josh Billings, a contemporary of Sam Clemens, AKA Mark Twain. He's awesome and we're all quite enthralled.

Episode 206 The (Admittedly Subjective) History of Bourbon

On the heels of the last episode talking about the KY Bourbon Fest, the Brotherhood of Snakes and Otters returns to a favorite subject: BOURBON!!!! That's right. We talk about the history of bourbon and the effect it's had on the local region, nationally and of course, us! Cajun also provides a flight of bourbons for us to try. It's a blind taste test. Hear what we have to say.

Episode 205 Hoopajoob! Bourbon Fest in Bardstown KY

The Brotherhood visits the KY Bourbon Fest in Bardstown, KY. Also known as the Holy Land, and not just because it's considered the home of Bourbon. Three days of bourbon tasting and soaking up the ambience that comes from hundreds, if not more, of bourbon fans from all across the world. Yes, the world. Someone was apparently from Australia.

Episode 204 Code of Honor from Friedrich Nietzsche

Martin captains our first "new format" Code of Honor where the Captain now rules!
At Martin's able direction, we go back to forever-flowing well of Friedrich Nietzsche and discuss the general sanity of individuals versus the general insanity of groups.
Things get lively with five guys to bat this one around!

Episode 203 Helter Skelter - Charles Manson’s Impact on the Culture

The Brotherhood of Snakes and Otters takes a look at Helter Skelter phenomenon.
No, not the Beatles song.
Or the cover by Siouxsie and the Banshees.
Or the latter one by U2.
Who was Charles Manson, how did he create his cult and keep them under his sway? Perhaps most importantly, what influences did he have on society and the culture?
