About the Podcast

I Drink My Coffee Black and My Whiskey Neat isn’t just a podcast. It’s a mindset. A space where truths are poured straight — no sugar, no chaser. Where raw thoughts meet real talk. Some mornings. Some midnights. Always honest.

It was created by Ron Eastman — someone who doesn’t just think deeply, but questions what most people skip past. He traces the ache. He examines the silence. He asks not to provoke, but to understand — even when the reflection he’s facing is his own.

Some episodes feel like a corner booth at your favorite coffee shop: thoughtful, grounded, and a little sacred. Others hit like last call at a whiskey bar: unfiltered, emotional, maybe even a little messy.

What makes this podcast different? Ron doesn’t talk at you. He talks with you. About life. About pain. About the quiet moments that matter most — the ones that only show up when everything else goes still.

A Little More About Ron

Ron has always been a quiet person. Not shy — just someone who learned early that saying too much can get you misunderstood, judged, or dismissed. So he stayed quiet. But he never stopped thinking. And now, this podcast is where the silence breaks.

He spent twelve years in the military, then nearly two decades in protection — working as a high-profile bodyguard in combat zones, private estates, and places most people wouldn’t go. He’s protected celebrities, CEOs, and dignitaries. But for most of that time… he stayed invisible. Observing. Moving. Surviving.

Now, life has shifted. The missions are over. The noise has quieted.
The chaos is gone — but the stillness speaks volumes.

He’s a husband. A father. A man learning to live in the aftermath of everything he never said.

This podcast is where his thoughts finally have space to land.

And where he says the things he’s carried for far too long.

Thanks for pulling up a chair. I’m glad you’re here.
