Cigar Hacks Podcast

No rowing was required as we do another episode out on the boat. No fish were harmed (or caught) in the production of this episode. We swear in, or at, a new Hack and have him read some cringe-worthy urban dictionary entries. The Hidden Herf is picked out by Nurse Rick at the 11th hour. The second half of this episode goes in a few directions, but not without a few good laughs.

Direct from El Toro, with all nations represented, we’re back at one of our favorite lounges and are joined by a few of the regulars. We have a follow up on a couple of topics from last week. The Hidden Herf stumps the panel, but is well received. Smoke along while we tell stories and talk cigars, etc.

We are on the S.S. Low Voltage, where the weights are made up, and the fish don’t matter! It’s our first time this summer doing the show from the boat. We have a couple of Comedy Chris’ out-of-town relatives who join in on the fun. The Hidden Herf gets a decent rating but no close guesses.

This week we find ourselves invited to the Amici Club in Medford, MA. for a BBQ and Cigars. We are joined on the show by Angelo, Gus, Andrew, and Paul with dozens of fellow cigar enthusiasts in the background. The members tell us about the Amici Club while smoking the hidden Herf. Lots of guesses but no one gets close.

Direct from the Route One Business Networking Group (BNG) event for our second year, we talk with various BNG members while enjoying cigars on the back patio. We are then joined by a pair of Marine Vets who tell us about their new podcast on YouTube called Hard to Kill. It’s the usual laughs with some new and old friends.

Continuing our Farewell Tour, we do our last episode at Radloff’s Cigar Shop and On the Rox Lounge before they cease operations on July 31st 2022. It’s a bittersweet transition for the proprietors as they move on to the next chapter. We smoke a brand new release, which is a bit of a metaphor for what’s to come for the Radloff’s team, and it doesn’t disappoint. We have a rare appearance by our very own Chappy, on leave from the 82nd Airborne, where he tells us about Operation Deployed.

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!
