In the series premiere, actor and television host Joel McHale travels to Belfast, Ireland to soak in the island's culture and drink their famous whiskey. After hearing plenty of stories about the country from his wife, who lived there years ago, Joel is surprised to find a plethora of mouthwatering restaurants that have sprung up around the City Centre. To whet his appetite, he'll hang out in some of the sleekest pubs and get his drink on. Plus, he learns a lot about the turmoil that took place in Belfast called The Troubles, and he partakes in some of the most fun activities Belfast has to offer including betting on a dog race and playing a round of golf on one of their famous courses.
