Cigar Hacks Podcast

Joining the crew is Brian Sonia from United Cigar at the Plaistow Cigar Event. We pick up Bill, a lounge patron, to round out the panel and it’s bedlam from the start. Mustang Mike is not with us this week but he sends in a story, or two, or three… The mail bag is full and the Hidden Herf is excellent. Plenty of laughs, and podcast juice, in this episode. It was almost named “The Podcast That Would Not End”.

We attempt to do this week’s show from the boat but the weather does not cooperate, so we retire to Jake’s Place (AKA, Comedy Chris’s smoke shack). The Hidden Herf is a complete surprise and was selected because it was a box of 10 that we have not tried before, so basically we got lucky. This one runs a bit long because we go off on a lot of tangents and tell a lot of funny stories. There are plenty of laughs and a cigar that goes the distance, even for us fast smokers.

Direct from the Mustang Ranch, we are joined by a couple of special guests, including Irving, our sales rep for PDR Cigars, and for the first time; the lady of the ranch. Again we’re recording before the basket ball game. The Hidden Herf coincidentally rates the same as the last PDR Hidden Herf, now there’s a controversy! We learn about PDR Cigars and have a few laughs along the way.

We have perfect weather on Cinco De Mayo for a firepit episode. After a bit of a hiatus The Scarlet returns with tales from the road about the ponies and cigars after a visit to FatAsh Cigar in Kentucky. The Hidden Herf is an easy guess if you’ve been paying attention. Hunter Rick returns for the second consecutive week and gets sworn in.

It’s our first visit to Radloff’s since we got snowed out at Hackapalooza. Boom Boom and Kimmy just happen to be there too, there must be a psychic connection. We get caught up with Jamie on the shop, outdoor seating, and the cigar business. Jamie sets us up with a Hidden Herf from the vault that we come so close to accidentally guessing. There’s a contender for the new Podcast Juice that everyone seems to enjoy.

With what could be our last episode from The Domicile we are joined by The Brooklyn Chick and The Blue Ash. We have official Podcast Juice which has also been canceled. Nurse Rick and Taco Steve find us a nice Hidden Herf that has a surprise twist. The current events list is extra long this week, but The Reverend Harvey does a respectable job working through it.
