Close Encounters of the Third Kind / Highland Park Magnus
07/11/22 • 58 min
Bob and Brad continue their mini-series of popular films from director Steven Spielberg, this time with 1977's wildly successful Close Encounters of the Third Kind. A surprisingly interior movie, our hosts are wowed both by its ambition and the remarkable leading turn from Richard Dreyfuss.
Meanwhile, our hosts sip on Highland Park Magnus, a lower-proof, non-age-stated single malt Scotch from the Orkney region. This marks the second Highland Park expression in a row. How will it stack up to last week's Highland Park 12?

Previous Episode
Jaws / Highland Park 12
Season Six kicks off with one of the most popular films ever, director Steven Spielberg's breakthrough Jaws. Widely considered one of the best horror movies ever made, the famously-troubled production led to a tightly-edited masterclass in tension. Brad and Bob discuss the film's two very different halves, as well as the unsung acting heroics of Roy Scheider and Richard Dreyfus.
Meanwhile, our hosts sip on Highland Park 12-year, a lightly-peated single malt Scotch from the Orkney region. This bottle represents the entry point into the famous Highland Park brand, but what will our hosts think of it?
