Episode 242: Domicile Farewell Tour
– Local Spotlight: Domicile Stories from the Past

We assemble a large panel of thirteen hacks for what we’re calling the farewell tour to the Domicile, the sale should be final in a couple weeks. It’s Saturday night of the Fourth of July weekend at the lake so there are a few fireworks in the background. Half of us are in the garage and the other half are on the driveway in the fresh air. We swear in a few new hacks, add the Ladies’ Night segment, and followup up on last week’s story. The Hidden Herf is so far out in left field no one is even close with the guesses. Lot’s of laughs this week!

Episode 241: Wheelbarrow Mania, with United Cigars
– Local Spotlight: Plaistow Cigar; Plaistow, NH

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”.

Episode 240: Cocoa Puffs
– Local Spotlight: Podcasting Locations, NH

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.

We learn about PDR Cigars and have a few laughs along the way.

– Local Spotlight: Radloff’s Cigar Shop and On the Rox Lounge; Rochester, NH

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.
