Donor Acknowledgments and Scotch Recommendations

The hosts read donations from listeners in Massachusetts, California, and Quebec. In response to a request for an affordable scotch recommendation, John Dvorak suggests Macallan 12-year-old as a high-quality starter option, noting that Macallan 18 is smoother but significantly more expensive. A humorous anecdote involves "Miss Mickey" drinking the Macallan and leaving the host with Jack Daniels.

Fareed Zakaria, Dyson Vacuum Commercials, Laphroaig 30-Year Scotch

Fareed Zakaria's CNN program is criticized for featuring segments that resemble long-form commercials for the Steve Jobs biography and Dyson vacuum cleaners. Transitioning to spirits, the hosts recommend Laphroaig 30-year-old single malt as the ultimate scotch, noting that younger versions often have a harsh, medicinal quality that disappears with age.
