Glenn Howerton, Rob McElhenney and Charlie Day Announce Four Walls Whiskey

NEW YORK, N.Y. — In celebration of their decades-long friendship built within a bar, Glenn Howerton, Rob McElhenney and Charlie Day are launching a whiskey brand that pays tribute to the four walls the gang calls home.

The bar as we know it today is an offspring of the Irish Pub and the American Saloon. Its inherent Irish American spirit carries the warmth and comfort of familiar faces and repeated stories, along with the unpredictability and energy that generate the wild moments we will never forget and keep us coming back. “We wanted to create a brand celebrating the four walls that have held our favorite memories in and kept our troubles out,” states Glenn Howerton. “We were shooting Season 15 when bars were shutting down all across America. So we decided to source some really great whiskeys and create something as a tribute to the bar and kick it off by giving back,” adds Rob McElhenney. “We learned just how rare and how collectible old Irish Whiskey is, and we couldn’t believe we got our hands on some and wanted to release it and do something for the people and places that do so much for all of us – the bars and the bartenders,” says Charlie Day.

The limited-edition Four Walls whiskey collection will include two products – a rare Irish Whiskey with premium commemorative packaging for serious whiskey collectors and a blended Irish and Straight Pennsylvania Rye offering crafted with bartenders in mind and made to celebrate with fans, both available for purchase now.

The commemorative bottle is a 15+-year-old, single-barrel, cask-strength Irish Whiskey made to celebrate the record-breaking 15th season of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, all episodes currently streaming on Hulu/FXX, and the success of the It’s Always Sunny podcast. With premium packaging that includes signatures by Glenn, Rob, and Charlie, and a mirrored, engraved box, this package will retail for $999 and is only being released in a run of 755 bottles.

The second release is a mix of hand-selected barrels of grain and malt Irish whiskeys blended with Pennsylvania Straight Rye Whiskey for a new Irish & American tradition. Blended with bartenders in mind, it is smooth enough to be served neat but also holds up in a cocktail. This 90-proof spirit comes in a collectible premium box and retails for $89. Only a few hundred cases will be released now, with opportunities for fans to taste the spirit at special events over the coming months including the just-announced The Always Sunny Podcast live events at Bourbon & Beyond festival and at The Met Philadelphia.

All proceeds from this collection will be donated to the Pennsylvania Restaurant & Lodging Association’s HARP (Hospitality Assistance Response of Pennsylvania).

The liquid in both bottles, in addition to having the blessing of Master Distillers at all partner distilleries and from the gang themselves, recently received high praise during a blind tasting by members of the Barleycorn Society with co-founder John McCarthy declaring the 15-year Four Walls, “a single malt rivaling any in the world” and the blended offering a “no-brainer for high-end cocktails as well as a perfect vehicle for neat sipping armchair contemplation.”

About Rob, Charlie & Glenn

Rob McElhenney, Charlie Day, and Glenn Howerton have always had a knack for crafting fine things together. The trio is responsible for creating It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, which has now become the longest-running live-action sitcom in television history. First barreled in 2005, Sunny stars McElhenney, Day, and Howerton — along with Kaitlin Olson and Danny DeVito — as the owners of one of South Philly’s most notorious Irish pubs. The show, like a fine whiskey, has only gotten richer and intensified its distinct flavor through the years. It’s since become a landmark for dark comedy and American satire, uniting the most devoted of fans from all over the country and abroad, and this monumental 15th season is truly one to crack open and celebrate. Continuing to deliver some of the hardest laughs on television while tackling society’s most pressing issues, Sunny turns its fearless focus both outward and inward: to a national and international level but also to a deeply personal level. In addition to writing, producing, starring in, and occasionally directing the series, Rob, Charlie & Glenn now run a podcast devoted to deep-diving into the history and lore behind the show. “The Always Sunny Podcast” debuted in November 2021 and rocketed up to the #1 comedy podcast across all platforms.

An oral history of immersive vr 360° movie four walls.

International Rescue Committee (IRC) has been helping people in conflict and disaster areas for 83 years. The IRC is working in Lebanon, providing services and support to displaced Syrian refugees, many of whom fled their war-torn homeland with little more than the clothes on their backs.

To raise awareness of the refugees’ plight and difficult living conditions, the IRC partnered with YouVisit to produce Four Walls , an immersive VR 360° movie documenting IRC Voice Rashida Jones’ trip to Lebanon to learn first-hand about the refugees’ struggles.

Tapping into the storytelling power of VR, the project has kept their plight top of mind among donors and supporters. In the process, Four Walls has been covered by media outlets ranging from Vanity Fair to NPR’s All Tech Considered . Below, members of the team that created Four Walls look back on learnings from the project.

VR and the IRC

Four Walls marks the first time the IRC has used VR in their storytelling. The organization did a great deal of discovery to learn about the medium and understand how it could play a role in supporting their messaging. In the end, they concluded that an immersive experience could best tell the Syrian refugees’ stories and would allow the IRC to cut through clutter in the media landscape.

Cathe Neukum, executive producer (International Rescue Committee): Technology is always growing; it’s not static, so neither should be our storytelling approach. VR is one of the best mediums out there to evoke genuine empathy and action for a mission like the IRC’s: responding to the world’s worst humanitarian crises.

When you’re watching a traditional video, you’re able to multi-task. But once you don the virtual-reality goggles, the rest of the world around you disappears and you’ve entered into a completely simulated experience. Even watching without a VR headset is a powerful experience. Such intuitive technology has a real potential to tell real-life stories in more compelling ways, building awareness for our donors and supporters.

We partnered with YouVisit, because we were impressed by their willingness, excitement and energy to help us tell this important story in an immersive way. It’s critical to have the right creative partner – especially when experimenting with such a new medium – and YouVisit knew we wanted to get into this space.

Alex Pedigo, VR content specialist (YouVisit): In the western world we see constant imagery of refugees in various stages of a painful and difficult situation on the internet or TV, both of which are virtual. Very rarely do we absorb this imagery as a reality in our world. VR is an amazing tool in telling the story of people in any need because it allows a viewer to experience these stories in a more immersive way. It can act as a bridge between the reality of this world and the reality of our own world using virtual technology. I believe this bridge invites us to step into reality, which in this case is the very important reality of Syrian refugees in Lebanon.

Reflections on a seven-day shoot in Lebanon

YouVisit’s cameras documented the refugees’ difficult conditions living in tent camps and dilapidated homes in a truly moving way.

Cathe Neukum: From a production POV it was interesting to observe how non-invasive VR is in the field. It’s easy to set up the camera and then forget about it – of course making sure you are nowhere near the camera! It is a different way of working and thinking about how scenes unfold. No walk and talks – no traditional B-roll set ups. How to get from scene to scene is very different visually. But the main learning curve was really around distribution and how to get more eyeballs on the project.

Alice Shindelar (writer/director, YouVisit): We were in Lebanon for five days. The YouVisit crew — Rakan Shaker, Ben Leonberg, and Alex Pedigo — showed up a day before Rashida [Jones] to do a whirlwind scout of all of the locations where we’d be shooting, meet the refugees, various IRC employees, and lock in the rest of our schedule. This scout saved the shoot. We never would have been able to get what we got if we’d met refugees and plopped a camera down in their kitchens to shoot and interview with a celebrity that same day. Then the day Rashida [Jones] arrived we shot at the center for Working Children and Street Kids, then it was the abandoned building in Tripoli and the Palace on Mount Lebanon. The following day was the tented settlement in the Bekka Valley with the four sisters, and a cooking class for women that evening. On the last day it was just the YouVisit crew that went to the camp where we shot with Huda and her family.

The importance of creating presence

While the Syrian refugee crisis has been news since it began in March 2011, the IRC wanted to dispel misconceptions about life as a refugee. Contrary to popular belief, refugees, who are prohibited from working legally, are paying rent to live in dangerous substandard conditions in tents and homes in cities, a fact that is not widely known.

Cathe Neukum: Many people would say refugees live in a camp. But more than 90 percent of Syrian refugees in Lebanon, Jordan, Turkey and Iraq live as urban refugees.

Most refugees make their ways to the cities, which can present more opportunities to live a normal life again. In cities, refugees face extremely harsh conditions and are confronted with various challenges: they’re denied access to basic services such as education or health and are exposed to harassment, intimidation and discrimination. They also have trouble finding affordable housing, as it’s illegal for Syrian refugees to work in Lebanon without a permit, which can be difficult to obtain.

Many live in cramped apartments, abandoned buildings and partially constructed buildings. And while some still shelter in tents, this traditional image no longer paints a true picture of how refugees live in the 21st century.

So we asked ourselves: how can we illustrate the living situation for Syrian refugees in a way that is impactful and resonates with audiences, and makes it clear to them that refugees do not live well? Virtual reality.

When you watch Four Walls , you’ll see three different living environments: tented settlements, abandoned buildings and partially finished buildings. It’s a really 360° experience. You can get an accurate picture of this environment. You can’t physically touch anything, but it’s your own experience.

The film provides a stark perspective on the dire conditions people live in and our viewers are placed within a crisis that isn’t going away anytime soon. We have to reach people we haven’t reached before and while they might not care about the refugee crisis in the Middle East at first, virtual reality may be the medium to get them to engage and take action.

Ben Leonberg (creative director, YouVisit): VR is fundamentally different than other forms of storytelling. It’s more than just watching a spherical picture or video; VR offers a sense of presence (or perspective) that can’t be reproduced in other mediums. In Four Walls, feeling like you’re really in the homes of refugees or seeing their daily struggles first-hand is extremely impactful.

Alice Shindelar: VR creates an undeniable sense of presence. You can’t look away. When you’re standing in the middle of a refugee camp with a woman looking right into your eyes while she tells you about being kicked out of her family’s home you can turn around and check out what’s behind you, but you’ll still be looking at the tarp and plywood shacks where her and her family have been living for four years. When she points to the shack where her brother-in-law died two years into their exile you turn around to see that it’s right behind you.

The one thing you will always remember about making Four Walls ….

Alex Pedigo: I was involved in this project in a very unique way. My primary job was to photograph everything happening, including YouVisit Studio team behind-the-scenes shots, scenery, portraits of refugees, Rashida’s experience in Lebanon and portraits of Rashida. I spent a lot of my time looking through a lens to capture and communicate everyone else’s experience through imagery. It required a lot of focus and attention to the interactions and feelings expressed around me which can sometimes make it difficult for me to absorb the reality that is surrounding me.

After we returned to New York and we began our post production process, I spend a lot of time in a VR headset testing various versions of the Four Walls experience. It wasn’t until then that I had the opportunity to reflect on the content we captured from a creative standpoint but also an emotional and critical one. I was able to relive my experience over and over again through a virtual reality headset. In the end it was through a lens that I captured our hurting world and it will be through a lens that I remember it. However, remembering this experience is not enough as action must be taken.

Alice Shindelar: Interviewing Huda, a Syrian refugee. She is the woman in the blue headscarf that bookends the story. We almost didn’t interview her. It was the last day, and everyone was exhausted. But we’d met her on our scout and knew that she spoke English. I knew that this would be an opportunity to hear from a refugee in her own words without having to go through a translator. We set up the camera with her on one side and me on the other so we could look at each other through the camera. Then I was removed in post. This is a technique we use to maintain a human connection. It’s next to impossible for a professional actor to deliver honest emotion straight into a camera. And then she did the rest.

She delivered the most open and honest interview I’ve ever gotten, all within a few minutes of us arriving at her home. That’s perseverance right there. She knew that there was a possibility that something she might say in this interview could get in front of the right people that might be able to make a difference, if even a tiny one, and possibly one that would never come back to affect her and her family. Huda used to be an elementary school English teacher who lived in a modern apartment built by her husband and spent weekends on the beach. She’s now living in a muddy ditch on the side of the road, in a country where she can’t legally hold a job, for the last four years. There’s nothing that can be said to express what it means to meet a person like that. That bit of hope almost negates the other gargantuan truth about humanity that stares you in the face when you take a trip like this.

Ben Leonberg: The difficult practicality of actually making the experience. We shot under rough conditions, time constraints, language barriers, and really high temperatures. But my favorite memories are also about physical production: specifically getting to meet and work with some of the kids. My French isn’t great, but I speak it at close to the same level as most pre-teen Syrians so I made a lot of new friends at each location.

VR will inform nonprofits’ storytelling

Cathe Neukum: VR is still an experiment for the IRC, but we’d like to keep this medium in our toolkit for our ongoing narrative about the world’s worst humanitarian crises. We can’t bring people to the field to bear witness to countless tragedies throughout the world, but we will do our best to raise awareness through VR. For future projects we will need to do a better job at distribution (as previously stated). It would be important to have an event in mind before production.

Making indelible connections

Cathe Neukum: The best quotes would be from the NPR story since those were from the IRC gala, but those in office who watched were very moved. And these are people who have seen it all and are very familiar with the issues. When people from the IRC are moved to tears, then we know we have succeeded.

Donations to support the IRC’s work on behalf of Syrian refugees in Lebanon can be made here.

Drunk driver in Michigan birthday party crash that killed young siblings, 4 and 8, charged with murder

An intoxicated driver was charged with murder after crashing into a Michigan business where a child's birthday party was being held and killing two young siblings, authorities announced Tuesday.

Marshella Chidester, 66, hit a building at Swan Boat Club in Berlin Charter Township around 3 p.m. on Saturday. It came to a stop 25 feet inside where the party was taking place, Monroe County Sheriff Troy Goodnough told reporters Saturday.

In an arraignment hearing Tuesday, Chidester was charged with two counts of second-degree murder, two counts of operating under the influence of alcohol causing death and four counts of operating under the influence of alcohol causing serious injury. Her bond was set at $1.5 million. If convicted, Chidester could be sentenced to up to life in prison.

Zayn Phillips, 4, and his sister, Alanah Phillips, 8, were declared dead at the scene, Goodnough said in an update Monday. The sheriff's office previously reported that Zayn was 5-years-old.

A third sibling survived with “severe injuries," according to Andrew Brodie, the superintendent of Flat Rock Community Schools, an area public school district.

At the arraignment, Bill Colovos, an attorney for Chidester, said she has a history of epileptic seizures in her legs and lost control of the car when she crashed. He also said that his client only had one glass of wine four hours before the crash, according to a search warrant executed at the bar where she allegedly was.

"This is not a monster," Colovos said about his client, adding that she doesn't have a criminal history. "It’s horrible what happened, absolutely horrible. I have two children. It's absolutely horrible. But some things we don’t have control over."

Chidester was seen in court with a cast on her right arm, wearing a striped white and black prison uniform.

Monroe County Prosecuting Attorney Jeffery A. Yorkey refuted the claim that Chidester had a seizure during the crash and said that "her blood alcohol level was significantly over the legal limit." He didn't mention what her blood alcohol level was.

"There is no indication, whatsoever, in any of the evidence that we have uncovered in this case, that the defendant suffered from a seizure at the time of this incident," Yorkey said during the hearing.

"She indicated herself that she had some seizure issues and she was on some medication, and that she wasn't supposed to be drinking, but admitted that she had been drinking that day," Yorkey said.

A woman who identified herself as the grandmother of Zayn and Alanah spoke at the arraignment, accusing Chidester of drinking and driving.

"She chose to drink and drive and she took my grandbabies from us," the woman said.

A woman who identified herself as the aunt of the two children said she was at the scene of the crash, and saw her niece and nephew in their final moments.

"They walked into that birthday party having a fun time," she said. "They were sitting at that table, eating, and this woman crashed her car through this building, destroying all of our lives. Not just my family, everyone else that was in that building."

She says her other nephew and her sister, the children's mother, were hurt in the crash and are still fighting for their lives.

"I had to be the one to tell my sister her babies were gone when they removed her ventilator yesterday," the woman said. "She said 'How am I supposed to live without my babies?'"

"No one should ever have to go to a birthday party thinking that they’re gonna die," she said tearfully.

Zayn's birthday was coming up next month, according to Monroe County Undersheriff Joe Hammond.

"We were supposed to be planning a birthday party for Zayn, not a funeral," the child's aunt said.

Approximately 13 others were injured in the crash, Goodnough said on Saturday. Nine of those people, who range in age from 11 to 66-years-old, were hospitalized, according to the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office.

Five remain in critical condition, including an 11-year-old boy, a 14-year-old boy, a 16-year-old girl, an 18-year-old woman and a 31-year-old woman.

The four other victims, who range in age from 57 to 70, had minor injuries. A 42-year-old man also received treatment on his own for minor injuries.

Chidester's next court appearance is scheduled for April 30.
