Whiskey in a (Soap) Bottle: Dish Whiskey

Ever feel like the terms “barrel-aged” and “charcoal-filtered” could be applied to some of the less exciting areas of your life? Archer products is bringing everyone’s favorite liquor to the sink with Dish Whiskey. Forget your grocery store brand dish soap that smells like tangerines or handfuls of lilacs, this stuff smells good enough to drink, even if you definitely shouldn’t. Alcohol has demonstrated its usefulness as a solution to many problems, so why not use it to also deal with pots and pans crusted with manly things like meats and hearty stew?

Archer products also makes a series of air sprays that are a distinct departure from the typical aromas like “shady island flowers” and “festival of candles.” These sprays instead claim to replace the smells that occur naturally with scents that demand serious business and leave your pad reeking of manliness. I’d never dreamed there would be a can to make my house smell like “hearth stone, gun powder and damp timber” but now that I know “Hunting Lodge” exists I refuse to accept anything less. If a life of wilderness and mounted beast heads isn’t fast enough for you, “European Sports Car” kicks it up a notch with all the speed and racing fury you crave. Finally, there’s “Distillery” if you want more than your dishes to say “why yes, those are oak barrels.”

Every new Game of Thrones spinoff explained
George R.R. Martin's television world continues to grow
Matt Smith starring in House of the Dragon

When it first aired on HBO in the early 2010s, Game of Thrones dazzled audiences with revolutionary special effects and terrific acting in a unique fantasy world. Based on author George R.R. Martin's series of novels, the universe depicts the battles between several different noble families as they try to climb to the top of the continent of Westeros, both politically and figuratively. The war scenes, family drama, and massive number of characters helped make the story feel fresh and new every time a new episode aired.

As Martin's attention shifted to television and away from his books, fans have looked to the TV series to finish some of the stories he couldn't finish on the page. Game of Thrones left fans wanting more, despite its poorly received finale, and a plethora of spinoffs are on the way. House of the Dragon already has two seasons completed, and there are several others in the coming years to look forward to.
House of the Dragon
House of the Dragon finished its second season in 2024. The show chronicles the heated family dynamics of the Targaryen empire almost two centuries before the events of Game of Thrones. The third season should pick up the civil war between Queen Rhaenyra's forces and King Aegon's after a slow-building conflict throughout the second act.
