Episode description

Bob and Brad wrap up their mini-series of three films by director Rob Reiner with his 1987 comedy classic The Princess Bride. The script for this movie, by screenwriter William Goldman, is considered one of the best ever, but how does Reiner's direction stack up? Our hosts power-rank the 9 main actors of the movie before pivoting to whiskey.

This week, they go back to the Bushmills line to try Bushmills Red Bush. Like the standard white label expression, this Irish whiskey is a blend of single malt and grain whiskeys, but they're aged exclusively in first-fill bourbon barrels, which Bushmills hopes translates to a gateway entry into Irish whiskey for bourbon drinkers. At only a $22 price, what will our hosts think?
