Mick Fleetwood Sips Whiskey & Opens Up On 'The Fred Minnick' Show

Over whiskey and through Zoom, Fred Minnick discovered a side of Mick Fleetwood the world doesn’t know.

 On The Fred Minnick Show, Fleetwood confessed to the conversationalist—and inviting interviewer—that he misses “hugging” people while isolated from others in the coronavirus pandemic. “We are losing our sense of touch,” Fleetwood told Minnick. “It’s going to be a different world for a while.”

 Available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, iHeart, YouTube, Google Podcast and TuneIn, 

 Fleetwood nosed Minnick’s five curated whiskeys like a seasoned professional, revealing that smelling is his favorite of the five senses. Fleetwood tasted Barrell Bourbon Batch 21, Jack Daniel’s Tasters Select, Rhetoric 25-year-old, Cream of Kentucky and George T. Stagg. The drummer selected George T. Staggas his favorite of the crop.

 While tasting, Fleetwood and Minnick found a common note of “marzipan,” which led to a wonderful story from Fleetwood’s childhood about his grandma’s marzipan cake. 

 In addition, the Rock & Roll Hall of Famer expressed his affection for former and current bandmates Peter Green and Neil Finn, respectively, while revealing the origins of his passions for ascots and the blues. And much, much more.

 The hour-long interview is available on most podcast streaming devices and video of the Mick Fleetwoodinterview is also available on Minnick’s YouTube channel below:
