Breaking News with Bailey Pryor
Manage episode 289386272 series 1257545
Bailey Pryor’s achievements are impressive. He is the recipient of several Emmy awards, has written, directed, and produced scores of movies and documentaries, and is the leading authority on notorious rum runner, Bill McCoy. And he’s barely over 50-years-old.
F. Scott Fitzgerald famously said there are no second acts in life. But, Bailey’s years of research for the award-winning documentary, The Real McCoy, raised the curtain for his second act — and included a dramatic plot twist.
While researching rum runners and prohibition for his film, he befriended (previous Shift Drink guest) Richard Seale, the 4th generation owner of Foursquare Rum Distillery in Barbados. As that relationship grew, Bailey’s obsession with rum blossomed. And The Real McCoy rum was born. And a partnership with Richard began.
The Real McCoy rum quickly garnered attention and is now just as decorated as Bailey’s films. As he pumps the brakes on his filmmaking career, his career as a distiller is just beginning. And he has a hell of a mentor.
