But ... Bourbon is whisky made from corn.
Am I missing something?

Ah. After googling it, apparently the spelling is 'whiskey' in America and Ireland, and 'whisky' in Canada, Scotland, and Japan. So maybe the Maker's Mark brand is owned by Canadians, Scots, or Japanese? Or maybe they like the cachet of 'whisky' vs 'whiskey'? Or maybe they just don't care how they spell it.
Eta: Apparently Maker's Mark is one of the few American companies to use the Scottish/Canadian/Japanese spelling 'whisky' on its product. I found one web page that mentioned this is done to honor the founder's Scottish heritage; it may refer to Burke, who sold the distillery to Samuels in 1953.

Whisk[e]y purists will argue that whisky and whiskey are two different things entirely. I call bullshit, but.

Just depends where it comes from. I would never describe Jameson's or Jack D as whisky. Or single malts from Arran, Oban or suchlike as whiskey.
Horses for courses. Or, as a friend of mine used to say, arses fuck arses (you can make it work if you use a West-Country accent). I am anal.

So. No Comcast thank goodness. But we stream stuff from Netflix every day and night. Yeah, yeah. Whatever. Here are a couple categories the staff robot at Netflix might be helpful to me: Violent Revenge Action Thrillers and Raunchy Dysfunctional-Family TV Shows.
