Episode 6 brings Andy back to the chair, a live studio audience into the room, and Old Forester 1910 onto the table after Brent Bickett kept voting until it finally won the public bottle poll. But the biggest local story comes early: The Boathouse is expanding into Murrells Inlet, sparking a conversation about the MarshWalk, live music, and what the move could mean for the local scene.
From there, Andy and Phil get into Nashville's nonstop live-music culture, Skull's Rainbow Room, a $320 dinner, Phil and Ola's 20th anniversary, and a spontaneous live call to Chef Kevin at CK's Bistro. They also launch the Twisted Brisket Cooking Team, talk downtown Conway, college choices, River Oaks traffic, Nashville liquor taxes, and the difference between bourbon and Tennessee whiskey.
Stick around for the Old Forester verdict, Talkin' Trash, live callers, and Andy's phoenix story at the end.

Episode 5 gets loose fast as Dewey fills in for Andy, Woodford Reserve Double Double Oaked hits the glasses, and a fake house-party flyer almost turns Andy’s empty house into a real event. Then Phil tells the story of getting kicked off a flight after a Vegas trip, while the crew digs into the long-running Myrtle Beach surf park plans and what could finally be changing.
The conversation rolls through 357 Brewers, Myrtle Beach pizza, an $11K backyard cornhole fundraiser benefiting SC Needs Help, college and family milestones, Waymo and Uber stories, the Outer Banks road washout, self-checkout rage, shopping-cart etiquette, and $700 flights to Atlanta. Stick around for the Woodford verdict, Talkin' Trash, live callers, and Andy checking in from Nashville after a canceled Lionel Richie concert changed the trip.

Episode 4 of Keepin' It Real with Andy & Phil opens with the community-voted Old Forester 1924 10 Year Old at 100 proof before the conversation turns to aging, loss, living while you can, college football, family milestones, food, and life around the 843.
Phil shares one of the wildest stories of the show so far: his 18-year-old son Gage gets onstage in Virginia Beach and raps with Lupe Fiasco after a weekend around B.o.B and Travie McCoy. Andy and Phil also get into eatMYR and its 29-restaurant lineup, the Carolina Cup Pro/Am Surf Fest, Gamecock football, digital-ticket frustration, diesel pumps, $16 drinks, hotel prices, and the final Old Forester verdict.
Stick around for Talkin' Trash, live callers, Dewey on online haters and giving back, and the 1,000-subscriber pedicure challenge nobody asked for.

After a rocky live start, Andy is joined by Dewey while Phil is away, and this week's community-voted pour is a Knob Creek 12 Year Cask Strength at 121.2 proof. They crack it open, put it to the test, and eventually deliver the final verdict on whether this high-proof bourbon is good or it ain't.
The conversation rolls through Pour Decisions, kickball injuries, Myrtle Beach-area eats, the closing of Greg Norman's, and a wild BBQ weekend at recteq Academy in Evans, Georgia. Andy and Dewey also get into Darlington Raceway, bowling, golf, dementia care, VRBOs, college football, Clemson vs. LSU, the Gamecocks, and a peak-demand electric bill story where one hour reportedly added roughly $700 to the bill.
