We're still waiting for the season of Netflix's Nailed it! where contestants have to make whiskey bottle or barrel shaped cakes, but in the meantime to celebrate the new season, the Whiskey Women made whiskey cake and invented a drinking game for their favorite baking show!

The Whiskey Women combine a few of their passions -- books, environmentalism, and whiskey -- when they sit down with Shanna Farrell, author of the new book A Good Drink: In Pursuit of Sustainable Spirits. In this eye-opening discussion, Shanna gives Janet and Blair the scoop on which distilleries are prioritizing green practices, how the bar industry can create less waste, and how consumers can demand more transparency when it comes to what ends up in their glasses.

What would it be like to drink whiskey in space?

Whiskey Women podcast seeks to liberate shy or tentative wannabe whiskey drinkers by introducing types and brands of whiskey and discussing them in a delightfully absurd, insistently unserious way. If you like to have your whiskey compared to bad relationships or given senior yearbook superlatives, than sit back, pour yourself the namesake, and listen to two friends explore the feminine side of this historically masculine drink.
