Graeme, Angus and Ross are three friends who enjoy a dram and a chat in their local pub. We don't take ourselves too seriously and tend to invite a special guest along each week to chat about their experience in whisky.

The 'What 3 Drams' feature of the podcast dives into three specific whiskies close to them and discuss the story behind them.

  • Guests too quiet, host too loud.

    Enjoyable content but please give your guests better microphones. I can hardly hear Simon Thompson so turn up AirPods to full whack then get a blast of deafening shouty host banter. Not the only episode where the guest I actually want to hear from is too quiet.

    Hard to listen over headphones, as every person have different volume, guy with mic is extremely loud but guests you can not hear sometimes beside him, just unbalanced audio and few times I had to stop listening, sadly
