Ep. 28 – Hominid Battle Royale

November 30, 2021 Nick McDonald Leave a comment

Show Notes

It’s Thanksgiving here at The Booze + Spirits Podcast, and we celebrate it like most Americans–by being painfully unaware of the plight of Native Americans and having a big blow-out fight with family members. After a few tales of Native American lore, Nick goads Cait into storming out. Afterwards, Nick and Mel ‘go for a walk with the cousins’ and ramble on about proto-man behavior including Bigfoot, Wendigos, and Facebook. Like a Thanksgiving dinner, it goes on too long and makes you wonder what else you could be doing right now if you didn’t feel so guilty obligated. Happy Turkey Day!

Ep. 26 – Call Her DADA

Show Notes

It’s our one-year anniversary! One year of Booze + Spirits, and despite all that experience, Mel shows up late, Cait pulls her conversation cues from Cards Against Humanity, and Nick talked into the cold mic while the hot mic was in another part of the room again (sorry for the potato quality). For this momentous event we decided on a episode touching some of the darker, nastier denizens of the paranormal world (the ghost ones, not douchey or pretentious ghost hunters), and some ways to keep yourself from being caught in their webs. So sit in for an extra long, sub-quality version of Defense Against the Dark Arts class, and at the end Cait will send you home with a recipe for a Bloody Mary that doubles as a protection spell!

Like we mention in the podcast, Michelle Bellanger is one of our favorite sources for information on psychic and magical arts. You can find her books through her website, though some of our favorites are listed below:
The Ghost Hunter’s Survival Guide
The Psychic Vampire Codex
The Dictionary of Demons

The Phillip Experiment – Artificial creation of a spirit entity (see also tulpas)

Recipes

RECIPE: Kanaka Death Orgy

May 16, 2021 Nick McDonald 1 Comment

2 oz chai tea infused Pendleton Whiskey
1.5 oz white rum (we used Havana Club)
1 oz Coco Reál coconut cream
4 oz pineapple juice
juice of half a lime
1 oz amraetto (we like Disaronno)
.5 oz spiced dark rum (we used Kraken)

Shake all ingredients, except dark spiced rum, with ice until combined and frothy. Strain into a tiki mug with fresh ice. Top with dark spiced rum float (gentle pour to try to keep the rum together on top). Garnish with all the fruit you can find!

Chai-Infused Whiskey

Combine 8 oz. Pendleton Whisky with 4 scoops of Blue Lotus Traditional Masala Chai in a mason jar or other air tight container. Let set for at least a week.

You can also use 3-4 chai tea bags of your choice. Dip them briefly in hot water before adding to the whisky to get a more potent spice flavor.
