The Difference Between Tired and Weary - Pendleton 12yr Rye

[@xDarthRio]

I’m really loving the new (old?) format. Don’t get me wrong, I loved the Vault/Tribe videos but this feels like I’m sitting down with a friend and just talking.

[@shmirginhymer1867]

Tribe is an entire different category my guy. Hope you keep watching the Tribe also!

[@xDarthRio]

@@shmirginhymer1867 yeah, I know. Been watching for years.

Love the backstories. It’s like finally getting the deep lore of something you thought was just a sitcom (albeit, a highly educational and gloriously interesting buddy comedy)

[@Jeff.the.senior]

This is by far one of the most insightful and wise monologues in a wonderful format. I have shared this in particular because many people are weary and don't realize it. Those that are weary become depressed, suicidal or completely implode their life. Thanks Rex for making this conversation relatable to many of my dear friends.

[@kellycottrell1674]

I like this format soo much more. I relate to being Weary....I spent 34 long years in a Career that payed well....I was good at....but I didn't like. I came to the same realization.... something has to change. The Lord answered my Prayers....I have a job I Love.... with great people to work with. It doesn't pay as well....and I am 2 hours from my family until we can get our home sold during the week....but doing something for a living you like.....is light years better! Looking forward to the next installment! Thanks Daniel.... Cheers 🥃

[@whatsthepoint170]

Love the new video format. It’s like a fireside chat with a buddy, perfect setting for a whiskey pour if you ask me. Instead of being pulled in a million directions at once (today’s format of the world) I’m able to focus on a single spot. Relaxing, and a much needed change up.

[@toddbelanger1923]

This was BRAIN SHAKING AWESOME.. YAHOOOOO CHEERS to this format.. Love it

[@ole661]

You just keep channeling Paul Harvey, and I'll keep watching!

[@nathand4561]

Loved the old videos but this hits different and it just seems like it will work. After all, one of the best parts of a good whiskey is the conversation while drinking it.

[@NotMe-zq6sn]

This is spot on. I realized it was time to retire from my 35 year career exactly because of weariness. Tired can be fixed with a break and recharging batteries, but weariness never goes away.

[@EpicValleysStill]

Really enjoying our one sided conversation. I love you and him together and the whole tribe feeling, but this is just cozy. Thank you both for not just disappearing into the void.

[@peterhunt2k]

Loving these chats Daniel. You highlight an important point about being old enough to know the difference between tired and weary. I wasn't when it happened to me the first time!

[@danieldean2096]

The format is comfortable and easy. Having a dram and shooting the breeze. Cheers 🥃

[@shaesnell3938]

As a working muso, I totally relate. Cheers to you Daniel

[@JohnWalker-dn1qt]

Love the stories. Love the whiskey. Good luck with the changes!

[@Lawnshrooms]

That Pendleton mixed with some lemonade is my summer go to for a relaxing afternoon on the back patio

[@kevingalloway1684]

Thanks for the conversation Daniel! Yep it felt like I was sitting there with you. Can’t wait until the next visit!

[@TheFrogmaster66]

In the healthcare, we call this 'Burnout Syndrome'. It is often brushed off or disregarded by the society. It is basically the exhaustion of emotional and physical state while you are continously in a high stressful environment. I'm digging the new/old format of the video. Good to just rewind your day to! Thank you for sharing.

[@tasdevl]

Refreshing to see this style of video again, so glad Daniel is still doing these.

[@joeljhelbig]

Loving the new format. A lot. This is really feeling fresh. A much needed update.

[@dannyfannyfoodle]

Damnit, Daniel! You’re making me all weepy! Can’t wait to hear the rest of the story and SO glad you’re here, blessing us with your wisdom, humility and humanity. ❤️

[@kylewipert11]

I really enjoy this style of video. Don’t worry Daniel, we are all still here. Your stories are captivating and as a fellow musician, it’s fun to hear an origin story. I have been playing instrumental prog metal to almost nobody but I love the travel and the experience of getting off stage and talking to that one overly enthusiastic fan while I’m trying to pack up lol.

[@luxintenebris1776]

Thank you. I'm getting married in September. Two of my groomsmen I have known for 12 years. So I gave each of them a bottle of this very 12 year old Whisky to commemorate our years of friendship. If there is anything that you and Rex have taught me, it is this: That there are few joys more grand than sharing a good drink with good friends. So thank you Daniel for the laughs, the knowledge, and the love of Whisk(e)y that you and Rex have "distilled" in me. So cheers to you! For all you have done for those you have known, and for those who's lives you've never known you touched. Thank you.

[@davidm7480]

"Pay attention to the moments in your life when weariness creeps in. Because that's different and you need to listen to that." Dude, you nailed it. Really like the video's by the way. The format, stories and presentation. Well done.

[@b1gsteve251]

The new format change is great, but the setting is magnificent, you bastard! Cheers 🥃

[@iamgeek246]

This one hits a little closer to home as of late. I work my butt off to provide for my family and the fight to stay ahead of the curve is a true slog sometimes. Thanks for sharing. I love the new channel format even though I will miss the mooch by your side, these stories are just top notch. Keep it up!

[@aaronwestlund1378]

Needed that. On many levels. Thank you. Your timing was impeccable.

[@jjy3k10]

Having recently finished watching all the vault episodes some of the last ones for me to finish being the solo Daniel and Advent calendar episodes these episodes are noticably better. Less rambly, Daniel's more comfortable behind the camera, the camera itself is positioned to feel more personal, and there's a sense of cohesion and flow that makes for a more complete package.

[@cardfan64]

Appreciated the message and your story. Glad you listened to your weariness. I know too many others who didn’t. Also appreciate the picture of the magi in the background. Now I want to sip some Pendleton. Blessings and look forward to hearing more of your story. Pray that your son is doing well.

[@calebsuydam2502]

I’m missing the old dynamic, but damn do these new videos make me just feel good. Keep the stories coming and I’ll keep coming back.

[@i_own_adog]

People aren't accepting of the change, but we have truly been spoiled with the content Daniel is making for us right now.

[@geargirl2399]

I really enjoy this Rye for sipping on when friends (who don’t know about Whiskey) are over. Great story, can’t wait to hear about the call from Rex.

[@c4hjorth]

Pendleton 1910 was my first rye, and is one that I keep going back to.

[@jackturnpike]

I loved touring as well, especially seeing so many neglected corners of America.

[@NationsAttic]

I really enjoy this format and your sincere stories, both about whiskey and your experiences. Keep up the good work!

[@MrSpot6016]

Respect to the Far Side collection next to you. Perfect book to pair with a slow drink.

[@williamdavelaar]

Its like Daniel has come full circle. 🙂 I very much enjoy the return to this format. 🥃 Cheers MBs

[@charles_the_elder]

Love the explanation between tired and weary. Thank you. Love this format.

[@Beardmire]

Loving this new format! While before I looked forward to some fun banter and shenanigans, I now look forward to having a nice, calm, relaxing moment with you. A very welcome moment, and a welcome change.

[@darrinchurch420]

Thanks Daniel - Happy to see you telling these stories.

[@XBOXKILLER33988]

This last year has been rough, and I wish this video existed months ago, so i could've reflected sooner rather than later. Really loving the new format. It's like little nuggets of wisdom from an old friend. Thanks, Daniel, we're here for you.

[@christinecamley]

Fabulous Daniel! Such a terrific format! Love your stories on life! I really enjoy this delicious Pendleton oak-barrel aged 100% Rye! Amazing butterscotch, cigar (in a good way!!), toffee, citrus! The Canadian Club 40 yo expression was amazing and of course this rye isn't at that level, not near it, but it's nice! Pendleton Rye is distilled in my Canada so that's always a plus for me! Vancouver is home! Taking stock when we hit that place where something has to change, and we know deep inside, is such an important time to look inward and make shifts. Great message Daniel! Have an awesome day!

[@DW-qe7qe]

You get it. It’s no wonder why you connect so well with viewers. You are one of us.

[@ericcarpenter3263]

Really digging the new format. I really needed this tonight. My parents are getting close to end of life and they were in a town between my brother and I, basically 2.5ish hours away. Going back and forth I was getting tired, but after moving them to the town I live in, I just felt weary (you helped me know what I was feeling, I didn’t have a word for it). I’m a hobby musician and I haven’t touched a guitar in so long I actually have feeling in my left hand fingertips. I’ve made some big time adjustments and settled into a schedule, even if it’s only a week old now. Today was the best day and even though it’s Tuesday ( I always call it “Monday 2: Tokyo Drift” cause it’s double bad) it was amazing. Thank you for giving me a word for what I was feeling, and sharing a bourbon across the internet, even if mine was just Turkey 101 tonight. Thanks from the bottom of my heart.

[@FastHatTrick]

No better message at this moment for me. I love the new format and you and Rex being brave enough to be honest with yourselves and us. To what's next, cheers.

[@paladonis]

"I got a call from Rex Williams" has so much more meaning now knowing what I know after Saturday's Tribe video. Loving the new format Daniel. I have been around this shindig so long. Neither here nor the Tribe channels are losing this viewer. I have hit a point of weary myself and am actively trying to make changes too. I understand with a whole heart

[@trubaka]

A beautiful day in the whisky room. Love this new format

[@zs1917]

This new format is something I didn’t know I needed. Still love the old one, but this has been a great story time before bed

[@JackFinnegan-s9t]

Amazing story and great words to live by. I was there myself - working 60 + hours a week - and like you say - something had to change. I retired at 63 and never looked back. We downsized- moved to a couple of acres in the country in East Texas and now instead of working myself into the ground, I’m extremely content sitting on my front porch with a glass of bourbon, a cigar, and my wife watching what God has given us. Thanks for a very inspiring message !!!

[@donewithpoliticsforever3961]

We too made our move to East Texas about 12 years ago and left big cities forever. I wanted to do it while still young enough to put some trees in the ground and put down roots. My wife was reluctant at first, leaving friends, good jobs, etc. After a few months we both realized what an emotion-suck the rat race had become. We've never since regretted it. Welcome! And enjoy that back porch.

[@Da_dctr78]

Love the new format. This is a refreshing change that will keep the channel thriving!

[@pharrigan-hikes]

Awesome hearing these stories. I knew you played music but I didn't realize how extensively you toured. Pretty crazy how you were in the right season of life for change when Rex called. Thanks for getting me more and more into whiskey the last few years. And as a sound engineer I've definitely been at those shows where it's just me, the band and the venue staff 😅.

[@johnstinson7018]

I just want to be on the other side of that barrel drinking with you. This type of stuff is what makes whiskey so awesome. This is like sitting and having a conversation with your buddy over a poor and you just get lost in time.

[@jakem1541]

Really like this, a little whiskey talk, and hanging out with a buddy. Good stuff.

[@valachimus]

Admittedly, I (like most everyone) was pretty heartbroken thinking about not getting to see Daniel and Rex producing videos together anymore. But this new path is something special that I would not have dared to hope for. What a wonderful new format and, dare I say, a blessing I wasn't looking for. Thanks, Daniel.

[@bryanwalker1737]

I am really enjoying these barrel top chats!

[@adammartinguitar5436]

I'm liking the calmer videos, just feels like chatting to a friend

[@BiffStrongo]

Cheers, Daniel.

[@fr.davideynon6984]

I love this format. As much fun as things were before the IRS nonsense, this feels more genuine and even happy. I can see why teaching is so important to you. Thank you for all that you do.

[@JReed305]

I know exactly what you mean about weary, that's exactly how I felt the last year or two before I retired from the Marine Corps. I was just mentally and emotionally done.

[@sabrinawilhelm7964]

Good timing on releasing this one.

[@scottyBbourbon]

I always looked at weariness at both physical and mental "tiredness". Being bone dead tired is usually a good thing, it means you worked your arse off that day or that week or for how ever long. Weary means you've done that but didn't get the reward or satisfaction you were hoping or looking for. Love this series, both the stories and your telling of them. Your next video should be with your absolute favorite whisky, the one you always go back to and can always enjoy. I'm curious to see what that one is.

[@kellyzink8348]

Great format and I enjoyed hearing of your travels. Your description of tired vs. weary strikes a chord with. I had a similar situation - that moment of truth when you know you need to make a change. When you decide to step forward, it's almost like walking toward the edge of a cliff. You just don't know if you'll find your way before you fall off. I'm glad you found your way.

[@thewhiskian]

I just quit my job this week for something new precisely because of the weariness you describe. Maybe it's serendipitous, maybe the universe has aligned; either way, thank you for the motivation and for being here, too, Daniel.

[@jay_white_music]

What a great sentiment, Daniel. Thanks for sharing.

[@robviousobviously5757]

GOOD MORNING YOU MB'S... 🥃 so it begins with all revealed...

[@Budkalings]

All the best to you in this new chapter. You seem like a nice guy, someone I've been seeing for years and who shares one of the things I love the most. Cheers! 🥃

[@jayfrankel8021]

Love the new format!

[@TheCHIEF092]

Awesome story. Thank you for being real. Keep on keeping on!

[@akren86]

These vids always come out in the morning while I'm at work and I want to watch them right away! But then I want to have a drink while I'm watching, so I have to wait until later in the day. The struggle!!! Guess I'm watching twice.

[@franksimonds04]

I love this format. Thank you, Daniel, for sharing your history and backstory.

[@JeffGibson-p2i]

I understand, I worked the fair circuit for 12 years so I get it. I will miss you and Rex together but I do get it. I wish you and Rex nothing but happiness in life.

[@rickdankert779]

Great to see you enjoying yourself, change is a good thing for all of us, look forward to more stories

[@tpecillo]

I'm going to love the new style of videos... I will sooooo miss the old ones with Rex.

[@Robert.Sheard]

Yes, yes, yes to this format.

[@lwosijk]

Love the storytelling. From one extreme introvert to another!

[@dscmatr]

I like the story teller Daniel

[@derekborgen6170]

Daniel, this hit on the right day and time for me. I appreciate the insight and the way to verbalize it!

[@bjmmn]

I got into whisk(e)y around the end of 2020 and found the Vault videos shortly thereafter. You guys have guided me to bottles I wouldn't have thought about, for good and bad, so thank you for that. I'm still struggling with picking out specific flavors, but at least I know what I like. That said, if these Vault videos continue like this, taking me away for ten minutes to tell a story and talk about a whiskey, I will watch every damn one of them. Here's to fighting, stealing and drinking... :)

[@SammeLagom]

Great story! Wow! I look forward to hear more! Take care man, from a fellow drummer.

[@jvmuyen]

I'll watch more of this

[@-RONNIE]

Thanks for the video Daniel 🥃

[@ihopethis1]

Love the storyteller format

[@haroldconner2645]

First time watching. Excellent.

[@dannythompson3256]

I am really loving these words of wisdom videos.

[@jameserdmann2468]

Great video and sound advice. Thanks for sharing!

[@jamesdayringer710]

Like the new format...

[@sylvaingrew8236]

What a pretty nice story. Thanks for that professor Daniel! 😊😊😊😊

[@ricdotdev]

Couple of things: * One of the first things I learned early is knowing when to quit, but it's difficult to gauge when something requires some more perseverance or if it's time to quit. And I think knowing the difference between tiredness and weariness is one good way to assess that. * For me, tiredness is when one can recover from it with just a good night's sleep, or maybe even up to a week or a month. Weariness is when one needs to stay away for at least a year or more... or forever. * This new format could now be more of a conversation between Daniel and the audience, instead of the audience just being the third-party between Daniel and Rex. (But then you would have to spend a bit more time reading and responding to comments. 😆)

[@WhiskeyVault]

I have started that in the last weeks :-) I'll be doing periodic Q&A's so we can still have a conversation as well!

[@dustinthiessen]

I can certainly relate to the road life. it's so much work, but so enjoyable at the same time! some of the best sleeps I've had are on tour busses :)

[@dustinberry8900]

Love it Daniel!

[@michaelvandijk6490]

Great Story, know the feeling

[@cnwilliams59]

Love these, please keep them up!

[@TLS2005]

I'm glad you had fun doing music but I'm really happy to see you being in charge of tasting bourbon and scotch one of these days when I retire i want to come down there and visit you guys

[@steveboyd3455]

Tired is an acute state because of what you did the day or few days before. You recover. Weary is a chronic state, because you are worn down and worn out because of what you've done for months or years. You don't really recover, unless you change.

[@333fux8]

I had this with coke the other day and it was actually very very good in coke

[@Remrcm]

I'm only at this channel, I left the other. It’s YOU that I'm following. Keep the fantastic work

[@WhiskeyVault]

There's still a lot to love on Tribe. Don't miss out! just two sides of the brain :-)

[@Remrcm]

@WhiskeyVault it's not fanatism, it's preferences.

[@donaldgelhot-uu3zi]

I stumbled in here years ago and discovered whiskey knowledge. That's what I'm here for. Idk what this is, but I can't sit through it....

This is the perfect format for Daniel 👍🏻

[@steveboyd3455]

I like the painting in the background.

[@martinanastacio9157]

This resonated. Thank you for sharing

[@bradkirbey1560]

Insightful video. Nice to see a more personal note along with the whiskey review. Well done
