Contagious, Deadly, & UGLY: Episode 39 (Early America's Vaccines & Vaccine Mandates)

In this episode we are sipping on a colonial cocktail, the Stone Fence. This simple yet very funky concoction was once the favorite of Ethan Allen and Benedict Arnold—its popularity ties into the era and region of TUX’s scandal.

In this vaccination themed episode of Beyond Reproach, TUX talks about the Founding Fathers views on vaccine mandates, America’s first anti-vax movement and the Black man who deserves credit for bringing the idea of inoculation to the New World. We raise our glasses to doing our patriotic duty and getting vaccinated because vaccines save lives!

O. G. Dubs: Episode 35 (The Whiskey Rebellion)

In this episode we are drinking a Rye Whiskey Sling. This colonial era mixed drink is tied directly to TUX’s scandal involving American Whiskey and the people who were willing to go to war against George Washington because of it.

CORRECTION: TUX mistakenly calls the Temperance movement "the Abolitionist movement" at the beginning of the show. What was he thinking?

TUX does a deep dive into the Whiskey Rebellion. We toast to the first amendment and our rights to freedom of speech, assembly, and petition.

Bone Apple Tea: Episode 34 (George Washington's Military Blunders Started the Seven Years War)

In our first episode of Season 4 we revive an autumnal proto-cocktail from the days of yore, the Apple Toddy. This warm colonial drink was popular in the 1700s and ties in perfectly with STEPHANIE’s scandal involving George Washington. 

STEPHANIE shines a light on the Jumonville Affair, a little known scandal involving our first president, that changed the course of modern history. We raise our glasses high and cheers to the first George W doing what George Ws do best!
