Can't believe I had this week

shoots lined up.
Quick, somebody call my agent.
Wow.

Mom called me all morning and
says Greg should be on the show
more often.
Stefan Kevitch.
That's a lie.
She doesn't call me.
All right, text she text you.
Yeah, she does.
Those weird texts where it's
voice to text, so it's a whole
page.
It's all messed up.
So what I was like, hi
sweetheart.
And then she starts and goes on
this whole.
Sweetheart, it's me, your
mother.
Yeah, she goes on this whole.
Is Greg there?
She goes on this large diatribe
and no one reads.
It's too many words.
It's too much.
I have to put it into AI to
summarize.
Please summarize my mother's
ramblings.
I don't want to read it either,
it says.

Oh, Skip's here too.
Yeah, you got to time it better.
You got to time it better.
Do better, Michael.
I mean, well, hang on a second,
'cause that was the purpose of
my call, 'cause you showed up on
my list and you're making me
look bad in front of Skip and I
don't like this.
When I when I started doing
face.
When I started doing face to
face bro calls with Mike, he's
heard it answering more.
Often.
That's it.
Yeah, that's it.

There was an arrest made in the
fireworks explosion from last
summer.
We're all going to be painting
in Washington.
Florida has more of these than
any other state in the union.
Then in cigars, we have a price
increase, a portal entry and a
new cigar.
And then we end the show with a
What's the score?
And a new cigar, kind of like
just left that out like that.
And a new cigar.
Oh, OK.
And then before ending the show,
we have a What's the score?

I watch a podcast every morning

I missed this one Friday and
watch Saturday.
Ben Rowland presence calling me.
I declined it just.
So.
They're in a fight.
Oh geez.
Ben Rowland says.
I can only imagine Phil yelling
at his assistant like Ari Gold
from Entourage.
That's.
What I'm picturing too.
That'd be nice.
T Money says I stopped watching
and Mikey doesn't read my
comment on the air.
Yes, Palmer is still on the
list.
Let me know the highlights from
the rest of the show.
There you go.
If you like hearing your
comment, read out loud on our
podcast.
Comment below and we may read it
out.
Oh, he'll read it.
Yeah, he reads them all.
I don't read them all.
If we have, there's a bunch.
There's No I don't.
No, I don't.
Stop.
Stop saying that That's not
true.
It's a lie.
Don't lie to your.
Don't lie to our people.
Don't lie to our people.
Are you OK?
OK, this is ridiculous.
All right, go over the
microphone.
Now you can't hear me.
Well, now I'm ready.
Now it looks like we have a bug
on our shirts.
You know the other thing that
drove me nuts was yes, I felt
like Greg had to relight his
cigar 75,000 times and on the
last podcast probably and it was
like right on the.
On the microphone, yeah, it's
like having two fills.
Well, well, yeah, I'll give you
that, all right.
All right, you guys, remember
the fire, the fireworks place
that exploded last summer?
It was a big story, huge story.
Well, there's been a massive
criminal case.
In total of eight people are
facing 30 charges, including
murder, conspiracy, illegal and
illegal weapons violations.
The explosion killed 7 people
and injured two others, turning
what should have been a routine
storage into a catastrophic
event.
So the president of the company,
he got arrested the other day at
Disney.
Oh, he was seeing the mouse.
He was in Florida seeing the
mouse and they took him in front
of the space mountain.
Was it in Florida?
Was the fireworks in Florida?
No, it was like South Carolina
or something.
Oh, OK.
But he was here on vacation.
Was he like this The.
Feds came looking.
They won't get me in Florida.
They can't.
Like it's a non extradition
state or something like that?
Right, well, they're waiting for
extradition back to California.
Oh, it's in California
apparently then.
I love how they made him spend
all this money to go to Disney
and then took him away while he
was there.
Yeah.
Wait, wait till he gets inside.
As soon as soon as he hits the
teacups, we break him, hit him.
When he gets off, he'll be
dizzy.
He can't run.
Let him buy a couple Turkey
legs.
Let him spend the $200.00.
So hold on.
Feed his family of seven.
So the fireworks that exploded
weren't really fireworks.
Oh no.
They were essentially explosive
devices that exceeded the legal
limits.
OK.
Oh, that's that's really bad.
Right, so they were.
The whole fireworks thing was a
front.
Really, yes.
So you potentially So what
you're trying what you're
saying?
Allegedly.
Allegedly is that he didn't
really have fireworks, he had
explosives.
He had some fireworks, but there
were some that exceeded the
limit of being called a
firework.
Because of the terminology of if
it has X amount of gunpowder.
Right.
But it was still fireworks.
Well, it's a four letter word.
You can't call them fireworks.
It was a real.
Deal with AB, yeah, ends with
AB.
Really.
As an ONM in the middle maybe?
Really.
Yes.
Used a lot, not here.
Interesting.
Key company figures including
operation manager Jack Lee,
license holder Gary Chan,
Budget.
Asia.
And face are facing murder
charges long so a Yolo County
sheriff's Lieutenant Samuel
Machado did you.
Say Yolo.
Yeah, Yolo County, I don't think
it's you only live whatever it
is, I don't think that's.
You only live once county.
I don't think that's what it
means.
He owned the warehouse and he's
being charged with murder, too.
OK, part of the Police
Department.
Oh wow, conspiracy.
So Machado's wife.
He's part of the Police
Department.
Yeah, I said he was a deputy.
Wow.
Lieutenant Samuel Machado, who?
They kill 7 people that worked
there.
I don't have their names or you
wouldn't know who they were
anyway.
Say their names no.
OK.
Bob, Steve, Mark, Tom, Timothy,
Walter and Machado.
Say it again.
I only had, I just.
Raised Bob.
Go ahead, Bob, I feel.
Like that seems to be different.
Right.
He raised on the street
Machado's wife, Tammy.
She was also arrested, yeah.
She got Tammy.
She got released on bail.
Couldn't blame Tammy.
One the suspect, Douglas
Tolferson, he's been charged
with murder, but he hasn't been
arrested because I can't find
him.
He's on the run.
Yeah, on the lamb, he.
Hid in Space Mountain.
He well, he wasn't there.
He's not part of the, the, the
the owner's last name is Chen.
So I mean.
Yeah, like I what is that?
What is that?
What?
Does that mean means he's Asian?
Also, this is a big Asian.
Bomber like a Yakuza thing or
something?
Oh yeah.
I'd be Japanese Chen that thinks
more Chinese.
Yeah, you're probably right.
So there's also been a
firefighter implicated in it.
Is there a Chinese mafia?
Of course there is.
What are they called?
Chinese mafia, That's it.
Well, you want to hear it in
Chinese Unga Banga.
That's, that's what they sound
like.
That's the, that's the name of
them, yes.
Well, it's like the mings or
whatever.
Greg cut ring the what?
Is it like the mings or
something?
So it's like the Mings?
Yeah, it's the Mings over there,
Phil.
It's the Mings.
Isn't.
I thought that was the mafia
name, no?
Or Yakuzumo's.
Yeah, Yakuzumo, right.
So Yakuzan and Yakuzumo.
There are several widely known
Chinese organized crime groups,
the Triads.
Triads.
Yes, from rush hour.
The Triads.
I think that's the big one.
I'm going to stop right there.
Yeah, let's not name all these
people and get them mad at us.
That would be bad.
Do you think they're affiliated
with us?
I'm not saying anything, yeah,
other than the facts I have here
from the Internet.
Oh, these those aren't really
facts.
Craig Cutright, volunteer
firefighter.
He was arrested.
And Triad alleged.
Allegedly.
What was his last?
Name Mr. Cutright Mr. Cutright.
Yeah, he's dead when I try.
He's vaguely related to the
Cartwrights from Bonanza.
OK, wow, Palmer.
I got to really link it up
somewhere.
Yeah.
You guys be more excited.
I want to talk about all these
people that got arrested.
We don't know.
What the answer is?
That's funny you thought that
this was going to go like.
I thought we'd go better than
this.
It was a big story.
Interesting.
We covered the original story,
yeah.
He wants us to engage in the
making fun of the Chens, no?
No, no, you don't make fun of
these people.
They could.
They could be the Chinese mafia,
Yeah.
That's yeah, you don't want to
make fun of the triads.
Why would it be funny then?
The the story, there's like 13
people that are being arrested
for the thing that exploded.
Yeah, it's like Peaky Blinder
stuff.
Right, I love this.
So what you're telling me is
like, you go, you go through
the, you go through these
stories and you're like, oh,
they're going to this is
they're.
Going well, this will get a
conversation.
This will be a good this is
going to be great.
Well, not great, but get a
conversation going.
And then when like it doesn't
happen, you're really just
disappointed.
I am disappointed.
I think it happens a little
differently.
I think he's like, he's sitting
at home with his wife and he
sees the stories, like who?
And he like gets up and runs
over to her and he's like, look
at this one.
You think they like this one?
I picture.
If they don't show her any of
these because she wouldn't care
less.
I picture this more like giddy
schoolgirl like, Oh yeah, yeah,
yeah, they're gonna love this.
Yeah, You guys do that, do the
next.
You're great.
I just want to stuck.
Up the conversation.
I got I got news for you, but if
you want to make comments about
me when I'm away, I'm happy to
make comments about while I'm

Hello, Mr. Boo.
Is that a Boo?
You look great.
This is lovely.
All right, Donald Trump wants to
do some painting in Washington,
DC.
That's at least $7 billion.
He wants to cover the entire
White House office building
that's right next door.
Yeah.
Please be gold.
With no.
With magic paint.
Oh, so people can write on it?
No.
So they can't write on it.
That's why it's magic.
They have not done anything to
this building since it was
originally built.
It looks terrible.
It's got stains on it.
It's Gray it.
Was the crap white marble here
to save it?
So But he needs special
permission to use magic paint to
make the Eisenhower Executive
Office Building bright white
forever.
Forever.
But it may damage the marble, so
experts are warning that the
paint could damage the historic,
oh, granite.
Sorry.
Exterior and preservationist
groups have filed A lawsuit to
stop the renovation.
It's an historical building.
This is wild.
You campaign granted.
Nobody visits this.
It's a it's a national office
building where a lot of the
offices from the White House,
that's where the people have
their.
Office where they go.
Yeah, they're not allowed to
work in the White House.
Their offices are in the
building next door.
They're outside.
Yeah, which barely.
They pay no no attention to how
this building looks.
No security.
Nothing.
I don't know.
I imagine it would be some.
He wants it painted.
He wants to paint it with magic
paint.
This is what we're talking about
now.
Why are you saying magic paint?
Because that's what he calls it
in his speech.
He calls it Magic Paint.
Magic.
Because it doesn't fade.
It's magic paint, but he doesn't
say it's special paint.
Doesn't.
Fade he got.
He calls it Magic Paint.
He got a slayed over the
salesman.
It's magic.
It never fades.
Right.
This is Emperor's New Clothes
all over again.
You're going to look great.
It's magic.
You paint the building always
white.
Always white for now.
You can't see it.
You mean it's magic?
Yes, yes, magic. $5,000,000 in
my bank account right now, yeah.
Check this out.
What's that behind your ear?
Whoa.
It's magic paint.
Look at this magic paint.
This guy's great.
Let's have him at the White
House again, maybe.
We can paint the.
Ballroom this color too yeah, I
love it.
It's.
Great.
Everything.
We're gonna paint the whole city
Magic paint.
Sir, why does the building look
the same after you painted?
Because your eyes can only see
through this magic paint.
Everybody else sees the white.
Only my supporters can see the
white.
Right.
No, it's white.
This was too close to the cigar
industry.
Do not say the name.
Do not do it.
What you know, Booth, is exactly
what I'm saying.
Don't you dare.
With the magic paint, yes.
With the with the foolery.
Yeah, OK.
Don't.
Worry.
OK, thank.
You for 5 million.
I was reading, Yeah.
So Trump's been talking about
it, for instance, November of
2025, that he would like to
paint the building with magic.
That's not that long.
He's really hanging on.
Yeah, he's dragging on.
You know, hey Straight of
Hormuz, I want to talk about
this painting, this building.
Yeah, I'm over the straight of
Hormuz thing.
Can we move?
On like, listen, we're going to
blockade now we're going to
blockade and look, look, this
building over here, I need
painted with magic paint.
Do you hear the problem now in
the straight of Hormuz?
No.
What's going on?
They don't remember where they
put all the mines.
Who?
The Iranians.
Stop it.
Nope, that's.
Yeah, they don't have no
technology on the ones that they
put.
Out who?
Who has a piece of paper with
the mine location?
Who has this?
Frank, come here.
Frank, Frank, you had the paper.
Where are.
You I don't have a boost.
Is that upside down?
I can't tell.
I can't.
I don't know either.
Oh, this direction to my house.
Sorry.
This is to Alibaba's house.
I don't know where I go right
now.
Alibaba can't they just put some
people in like the like the
little underwater scooter things
and just raise Allah into all
these things and clear them out?
You know what I mean?
Like that's.
You'll get your virgins this
way, yeah?
It's for the country or
whatever.
Yeah, it's.
Driving.
It makes sense.
Here's what we got to do.
We got 12 here.
There's 11 out there.
One of you going to return.
They probably don't know how
many of them they have.
Yeah, Oh my goodness, they're.
Going to blindfold all of you
that way you don't know who.
It is.
If that's true, that's terrible.
Like how did like what I?
Have no idea where the mines
are?
We don't know.
Well, see, here's the problem.
Yeah, we didn't write it down.
We didn't think that we would
get to peace.
Yeah.
We didn't plan on winning or
even a tie.
So I'm just working things out.
Could be like Looney Tunes.
Like, they're all like really
tiny Iranians, and then you got
the Chicken Little big guy.
Or there isn't mines at all.
Oh, is that it?
Yes, there are lots of mines.
There's so many mines I feel
like.
You're not the mines you're
looking for.
I feel like the Navy has a
minesweeper.
Over there though, yeah, we can
clean this up real quick.
No, no, no.
Like it's a yeah, kind of, I
mean, but the ship can detect,
yeah.
Well, yeah.
Does it blow them up or then
somebody has to go down and cut
it loose or whatever?
What's the plan on the aircraft,
by the way?
I don't know what's the plan on
the aircraft.
How does it?
How does it work?
Navy boy?
What's the different?
Yeah, How does it work, Navy
boy?
Lots of different planes.
How's the minesweeper work,
Navy?
Boy, many, many planes.
I don't know exactly how that
works, I just know that.
There's he wasn't on that boat
either.
He.
Doesn't like boats?
You know who would know this?
Ben, the guy on the minesweeper.
No, Skip would know this.
Skip would know.
This submarines.
Yeah, he's a mine expert.
Nuclear Subs.
Yeah.
OK.
All right, so we're painting the
White House.
Got it.
And there's.
Or not the white.
House in the whatever thing.
There's mines in the Strait of
Hormuz and we don't know where
they are.
Oh.
We didn't.
We didn't put them there.
Yeah, yeah.
The other guys don't know.
There's no amount on this.
How many mines?
No.
Of the paint.
Oh, dollar price?
No, there was no dollar
mentioned.
Maybe it's donated, I don't
know.
No, no, They keep that dark
until it happens, and then they
blow that up.
That's how that works.
You're not going to believe how
much you spent on painting this
building.
It was magic because it was so
expensive.
Then you cover shit stuff.
I don't know if we can say that
word either.
OK.
All right.
This past Friday, Governor Ron
DeSantis signed a law.
What did you sign a law to do?
Who wants to guess this is what
now?
This is something that we have
more than anybody else in the in
the country.
Kill the alligators.
Phil, you want to try something
reasonable?
He allowed more Cubans in.
No wet foot, dry foot's back.
In effect, No.
He signed a law bringing 5 new
specialty plates to the plate to
the state.
Sorry.
To the plate plate.
To the plate.
Especially license plates.
So we can't.
So we don't have the most
alligators.
No.
Well, we do, but we also have
the most vanity plates.
Not vanity plates, the plates
you can get.
Yeah.
We already offer more plates
than any other state.
So there's five new ones.
OK, but there's a there's a
catch.
All right.
All right, here's the five new
ones.
There is a UFC1.
Only if we're going to the White
House.
There is one for Miami
Northwestern Alumni Association.
Outsider.
Outsider.
Which is the Hoover Brothers
Foundation, a nonprofit
dedicated to enhancing public
spaces throughout the state.
So because these organizations
get money from the plates, so
they have to have a charity
that's associated with it.
OK All right.
And then the Saint Petersburg
College, they fund scholarships.
OK, OK, here's the catch.
Tell me.
Oh sorry, one more first
responders.
I like that one.
That was the biggest one I've
all.
Yeah.
So October 1st they start
selling these plates.
OK.
The organizations have to pre
sale 3000 plates within the next
two years.
OK.
And if they do that, then they
print them.
Oh yeah, because it.
Shouldn't be that hard.
Yeah, but you pay for it now.
OK.
So but you're not going to get
it till 2028 or 9.
Is that how cigars work?
I'm not OK.
I understand like I understand
where you're like instant
gratification.
You want the thing.
Well, if I.
Paid for it.
I'm a I'm not gonna remember 2
years from now I even bought it.
This is a thing, though, that
you're doing just to do a good
deed.
Right, but if they don't sell
3000, you don't get your money.
What's the first responder?
The one look like.
They don't have designs yet.
They just, he just allowed these
five and there is a word on each
one that has to show up a little
phrase like first responders has
to say first responders, UFC has
to say the name of their charity
organization.
Oh, OK.
Well I mean, I wouldn't mind
buying a first responder one.
I'm OK with that.
You can't apply for a refund,
but there's no guarantee you'll.
Get you, I'll buy you one too.
I don't want. 1 So I have all
the chapter pod money now
because we're getting all these
cool things, remember?
We have money.
Wow.
You see, because you guys, you
guys know we don't have any
money, but I'm going to buy
these plates though you got to
talking smack about me saying
that I'd spend all our money.
Well, you.
Oh, I forgot we did that.
This is just show fodder.
Michael, calm down.
Yeah, we needed some because
obviously Greg wasn't talking.
And I love the fact that his
phone rang.
Well, he thought it was
Brittany.
Yeah, yeah.
Or his wife.
My phone doesn't ring when she
calls.
Your phone doesn't ring, period.
You just answered, right?
Yeah.
No, his.
His ring.
Your phone doesn't ring.
No, he just has it where he can
see it.
I have mine sitting face up in
case there's an emergency.
Yeah, OK.
All right, do you have a video
for us?
I do you know what?
I forgot to send it to me
though.
I forgot to send it to you.
Just keep moving forward, you
know, I'll.
Yeah.
So it's actually from Mark
Gordon.
He told me all about this
yesterday.
The the the not as good as
Julian Gordon.
What I'll do is I'll record it.
If he sent you the recording,
you don't have it.
What's that?
I have it, but so the guy got
into this, the guy from it's.
A continuation of Friday's.
Video Yeah, the guy who said he
was Harry Dresden, who's
apparently like a wizard or
something.
Yeah, something from some type
of game or something.
Yeah, what?
I couldn't think of the right
words.
The guy in the trench coat.
He's a wizard from a game.
That name, Harry Dresden, is a
character from a book or a game
or something.
Yeah.
So what I'm going to do is I'll
send you the video and I'm just
going to keep the volume down
the.
You fucking trying?
I swear to God I'll fucking kill
you.
Do you understand me,
motherfucker?
I will say you bitch, there's no
fucking you fucking liar.
I can hear her.
I can fucking hear you.
Man, hurry the fuck up because
I'm going.
To drive his ass out.
I'm telling you who you're
talking to bro.
What the fuck they think you
are.
Get the fuck out of my house.
I know you're screaming the dirt
you don't want up there.
Get the fuck out of my third
room.
Walk the fuck out.
What's the third room?
Walk the fuck out.
I'm telling you, I'm giving you
right now, man.
It's the third room.
I'm giving you a fucking chest.
Get the fuck out of my house in
the third room, bro.
I'm telling you, get the fuck
out of my house.
Just answer the question.
Get the fuck out of my house.
Answer the question, please.
There's no one in there.
There's three rooms, man.
I don't know who you are.
You're.
Better in the Street at 1797.
Co-op driving.
I don't know who you're talking
about, man.
Why do I hear screaming?
Are you military?
Yes.
OK.
Can you help me out?
OK.
I understand what you're going
through right now.
Yes.
Can you step outside?
Yes, Sir.
Thank you.
Thank you for asking.
In the news would cover it,
right?
Yeah, I would think so.
No, they get other stuff like
the blockade.
I don't know, this is pretty
fascinating to me, no.
Yeah, well, I'm fascinated too,
but I mean, like, it's not a,
you know, a huge national story
because he didn't hurt anybody.
Have you seen the news lately?
Like nothing on it man.
I don't know.
I think that first of all, I
think that mental health is a
huge national story and a.
Huge national problem.
And a huge national crisis.
Yeah, national problem equals
national story.
All depends.
Well, in in my opinion, I think
that it does certainly.
So, you know, I hope that this
guy gets help.
I'm glad that he didn't get
killed, you know, and I hope
that it it works out.
So we'll see.
Maybe the news story will pick
it up.
You know, since the my rope
thing has kind of come back and
forth a couple times, I did want
to say one thing.
I had a scenario which I thought
was fascinating.
So I coach the kindergarten for
for our school, right?
And it's out in the heat and I
don't have a tent for the kids.
So the first time I'm.
On you, Sir.
Wow, Sir.
So the first time I used the the
team before us tent, like we
have three teams for our
kindergarten group and one of
the dads who's on my team helped
me break it down.
And then, you know, because he
said, hey, he's my neighbor,
I'll bring it back to him,
whatever.
And then I forgot about the
tent, right.
So because I was at AI wasn't
available the previous weekend
because we were at bull Weevil.
OK, so this dad text me and
says, hey, do you have a tent?
And I'm already on my way over
there and I do have a tent, but
the tent I broke the tent, but
it still works.
I'm like, no, it's OK, like
they'll be fine, right?
It's.
Stop.
Just one quick second.
Did you break the tent because
it wouldn't fold up correctly?
You got angry.
It wouldn't fold up correctly.
I wasn't angry about it, I just
forced it and broke it.
I've known him a long time.
OK, please continue with the
story.
Yeah, that played through my
head too, Bobby.
Right.
Exactly.
What are you talking about?
I'm picturing it not working.
I was thinking.
Dear Battle closed.
It's in so so anyways so.
Slamming the trunk, slamming
the.
Trunk So this dad texts me yes
and he says hey, do you need a
tent?
I said Oh no, I don't have one,
but it's OK, whatever.
So show up, tent guy brings out
the tent, has it all set up
ready to go right for the kids.
Awesome and game's over.
We have a good game.
Everybody had a great time.
He's now the assistant coach.
Game's done.
No, I have.
I have an assistant coach and
he's amazing, too.
Oh.
So the guy who brought the tent,
now he's just a coach.
He's just a father of somebody
on the.
Team Yeah, a kid that's on the
team.
Not equipment manager.
Put the tent up, played the
game, broke the tent down,
packed it in.
Good to go.
Done.
Did not ask me.
Did not, you know, whatever just
said, hey, you know what?
I see what you guys are doing,
so you can use some help.
Here's some help, right?
That's a guy that pulls the rope
with you.
Oh, I've, you know, I completely
lost the whole thing about the
rope thing at the beginning, but
now I understand.
What you got there, He.
Didn't know where you're going
man.
This is a long story to.
Go back to the tent.
Are we buying a tent?
I don't understand.
So anyways, we're getting a tent
all.
Right, let's gonna say chapter
pod tent.
We're getting ACH pod tent.
Oh, OK, good, perfect.
No, but like, but those are the
type of individuals that you
always want to be around, right?
A person that doesn't, you know,
that doesn't ask but just wants
to help and helps but doesn't
overstep right like say, hey
man, I got you.
Boom over.
It's problem solved right?
And now we're moving on.
Like those are dudes that you
want to be around.
So that's just kind of my point
of pulling the rope.
He.
Has a mash on your shirt?
Thank you.
No problem just pulling the rope
with you.
He's going to point out every
time.
Every time he gets old, Yank,
he's going to tell you.
Pulling the rope, you sit bro.
You sit on the rock sometimes.
I don't know all.
Right Cigar News Are we not
doing the video?
Are we doing the video?
No, he told us about it.
We're talking.
About it, yeah.
So I'm going to clip it in.
Yep.
OK.
You'll clip it in no audio, so
we can talk about it through it
the whole time, right?
And then I'm going to send it to
you guys with the audio so that
you can see it.
Gotcha.
Why?
Thank you all.
Right.
So put it over where we were
talking about it.
Yeah, OK.
All right.
Yeah, I'll put you on the being
on the show, Palmer.
Well, it could be.
I just cut it in and then
there's the video and then we
talk about it after.
There's several different ways
you could.
Go.
That's true.
And because the last video that
you guys did drove me nuts, I
don't.
Even remember what it was.
It was the guy.
It was the first half of the
video, but we all three talked
through the entire thing and
there was no place to put.
It yeah.
So it was insanity to me.
I started to lose my mind a
little bit.
Sorry, are you back?
Don't be sorry to be better.
Get off the rock.
Are you back?
Get off the rock.
Are you back, Get off the rocks.
Are pulling the rope.
I got to tell you to pull the
rope.
That's already a problem.
Can we push the rock or do we
have to pull the?
Rope.
I don't care as long as you're
in.
I don't care what we're doing as
long as you're trying.
All right, Cigar News Placencia
announces a 2026 price increase.
Well, that new logo is
expensive.
We got to put it on everything.
Yeah, we got the new leaf put.
On everything.
Are we giving away a Porsche
this year, PCA or what?
I don't know.
Ahead of next week's 2026 PCA
convention trade show, Placencia
has announced that it will be
increasing prices.
In a letter to retailers, the
company said the prices are
increasing by an average of. 7%.
4%. 2%.
Yes, I'm closer.
Sparklers, sparklers, sparklers.
We don't have any.
The new pricing will take effect
Monday, April 27th now That
gives retailers one week to
place orders between the end of
the PCA convention trade show
and when the new pricing hits.
So they offer this, they still
give you the better price and
PCA, right?
Yeah.
So that is their design.
That's smart.
Do you think go?
Ahead.
No, no, go ahead.
Do you think the prices go up?
They're going up 2%.
Yeah, but after PCA.
Yeah, yeah.
That's what they're.
Going to do.
April 27th, they're going to
institute the price increase.
If you don't have if you have
the orders in, then it's they'll
honor that price.
But if you don't have them in.
It's like an incentive to get
the PCA.
No, that's, I mean, it just in
my mind, I was like, oh, maybe
that's a marketing thing like by
now before the prices go up and
then the prices never go up, but
they get all their.
Orders.
No, the prices go up.
Prices are still going to go up,
OK, 2%.
I mean, that's not a huge thing,
no.
It's not bad, no.
I mean, look, inflation happens
annually.
Yeah, Most of these are five to
seven on average, yeah.
It's still low for inflation.
Who?
What?
That's still pretty low for
inflation.
Yeah.
OK.
Just making sure he's done.
I've started the story.
Twice he seems, yeah, he seems
pretty.
He's very talkative.
He's sitting on that rock
talking away.
Wow, Drew Estate's Eddie
Deadwood Crazy, Alice C notes
this month.
That should be the shirt, The
self preservation shirt.
It should be me and you pulling
the rope and then him and that
Mardi Gras mask sitting on the
rock.
That would be epic.
Wow, wow.
Oh.
What do I get an I get an idea
for sure.
I've talked to you after the
show, OK?
I pull the rope.
You're sitting on the rock
today, I got to tell you.
All right, continue.
Not only you sit on the rock,
you're digging a trench in.
Front of the rock pulling it the
other way.
It's adding the popular C note
ventola to it's Deadwood Crazy
Alice line this month, bringing
the tiny ventola to the flavored
line.
The Deadwood Crazy Alice C note
is a three and three quarter by
22.
It's a little guy.
He's a little guy and uses as
the same Maduro wrapper,
Indonesian binder and
undisclosed fillers found in the
larger size of the line.
The company refers as a Ceno
vitola, which appears in its
acid line as a fast smoking grab
and go expression design for
everyday moments.
OK.
C notes the Holy Grail of gravid
gold, the grand Hefe, a burn 1,
the epitome of the on run EI
don't remember how I did his
voice before.
He doesn't have that voice
anymore.
He has a different name.
Now, oh, a different name is
right, St.
Jonathan Sands, Co founder of
Drew A State in a press release.
I vividly remember the day in
Nicaragua when we invented the
Acid cigars C note at my desk on
the second floor of the old
factory when we finished rolling
the sample.
This is long.
Yeah, so C note.
C Note invented a masterpiece.
Friends laughed at him.
He said it was going to be
great.
He said these are straight fire
and soon millions of them will
be ruling the earth.
So do you think that this is a
good product to release, Phil?
A musical note.
C note's the name of it because
it's a tiny little cigar.
Yeah, it's a little cigarillo.
So the C imagine stands for
cigarillo, I mean.
I, I like little, the little
cigarillos every now and then.
So yeah, yeah, I don't see why
it would be bad.
Now it is a crazy Alice.
I'm not smoking that.
But the people that do smoke
these, they don't like to smoke
a lot.
So maybe the little ones, good
for them.
OK, it's 100 count bucks.
Do you think this is a good one?
I imagine Also I think it's
right the people that smoke
these aren't everyday cigar size
smokers.
I don't think that makes a
difference.
I mean the the regular crazy out
of which crazy owl is that what
this is?
That's not it's not a whole lot
bigger.
Yeah, but it is bigger, right?
Like engage wise.
Yeah, yeah.
And like the reality is that
sometimes a quick smoke is good,
right?
Like if you just get something
in and you don't like normally
what I'll do is I'll chop a
Corona in half, right.
But having that little cigar
that's that's advantageous.
Plenty of times I'm like, hey,
I'd like to get a quick smoking.
Guess the price of the little
cigar.
The little one.
The little one, it's 100 count
box.
I'm not going to give you the
box price because they need to
figure it out.
OK, boots.
So it's a big, it's a crate.
It's a little crate, yeah. 250.
That's pretty close.
I'm going to say 3 bucks now.
180 you went the wrong way.
Yeah, I thought it was low.
You.
Know so it's $180 for 100 count
box, which works out TO10180 per
cigar, so they're not packaged
to sell separately.
They want you to buy.
I want you.
To buy the whole box.
I mean, that's a good price for
a box of those 100 though A.
Little quick smokes, man, Yeah.
I don't know, 100 seems like a
lot.
It looks like a lot.
You can burn through them fast
though.
You probably burn.
You burn through like 5 or 10 of
them a day.
Yeah, yeah, I keep, I keep a
little 10 of like the Padrones
or the Davodovs in my truck and
when I smoke them I usually
smoke like 2 pretty.
Quick, see how rich he is.
Yes.
No, you got me on those.
I like everywhere.
I keep some padrones and some
Davodovs.
I have padrones that I keep in
the.
I just keep them.
I let them get stale and then I
smoke padrones because I am no
big deal.
Not no cubes, I have padrons.
I carry my padrons yes.
No, I hear you bro, I have my.
Diamond studded box in.
My in my in my sapphire humidor.
Go Zalita, go get me one of my
Padrons all the time.
Grab the Doritos and the little
padrone.
And the Cheetos.
And there's the Cheetos, the
fiery ones, and then we can do
stealing fast and then we can do
the Camada or whatever, he said.
Pajata Pajata.
Then we do the Pajata.
All right.
Jamie Flores Estrada.
We're done talking about that.
Oh, sorry.
That we were.
No, well, I was going to say I
understand.
Like I you're right.
I like the little Davidoff.
The Grago ones.
Nope, I like the Davidoff,
Winston Churchill's the the
pyramid ones.
Whichever 10 you got, you got me
hooked on the. 10 I don't smoke
the late hour ones that much or
anything like that.
I like the Connecticut out of
the Davidoff, the Pedrone like
the little Corticos.
Those aren't bad either.
Little quick smokes, the ten of
them are you?
Talking about the individuals.
You know, it's even better than
both of those weaselitos.
Weaselitos.
I didn't see any in the walk is
there?
Are they in the walk in?
I think that we we might be down
to just.
Yeah, we're down to like.
Amanos, yeah.
I have them in my humidor.
I try not to smoke them all
because I don't know if they're
coming back out.
I would love they're.
Coming back out, it's, it's a
regular item I think, isn't it?
I would love some EC weaselitos.
That'd be dope that.
Would be nice.
Yeah.
When you call them back, tell
him or the volts.
No no.
When you call them back after
the show because they called,
you tell them you would like EC
Weaselitos.
OK, I like EC Postana,
Connecticut's.
Oh yeah.
Weaselito yeah, that'd be dope.
That'd be nice.
Well, we can't call them
weaselitos.
Yeah, we couldn't.
What do we have to call them?
Postana Litos.
Justice is finger.
Justice is finger, yes.
Wow, Greg's point.
Yeah, that'd be good.
Greg's Point, The Little
Connecticut's Lancero or
Chopped.
Up chopped up Lancero.
That'd be dope.
That would be good.
Write that down.
Write that down, OK.
All right, carry on.
Are you writing it down or is?
It no, Palmer, you write it
down.
No, Carry on.
I guess it's a Jaime.
Jaime Flores, Jamie Flores could
go either way.
Jaime.
Jaime Flores Estrada named CEO
of SAG Imports.
Oh boy, SAG.
The American distributor for
Hoya de Nicaragua and Quesada
has announced that Jaime Flores
Estrada is the company's new
CEO, effective April first.
Could be a joke.
Got him.
Flores, Estrada's most recent,
served as the global chief
growth officer For what?
I don't know.
Global Chief Growth Officer.
What's that job?
Do you?
Grow across the world.
Bet it pays a lot.
Think so.
What's the what's his title?
Global Chief Growth Officer.
Like 200K.
For global premium cigars, yeah.
Are you looking it up?
No, no, he's getting paid
though.
The parent company of the 15-O2
brand.
How many?
How much?
How much do he's getting paid?
Yeah, at least 200 if not more.
I mean, global he's, he's got to
be like 25350.
OK.
Is 15-O2 a big brand?
I know what that is.
That's what I mean.
He's the global chief officer of
a small company.
I don't think he's making 200.
From Hoya no.
No.
No, now he's in charge of Hoya.
Before he was global premium, he
was the chief officer for Global
Premium cigars.
Sounds like he's just a fancy
name.
Oh, so what's his title now?
Now he's the CEO.
Of Hoya.
Of the company that owns Hoya.
This is fun.
Who's on 1st?
Jesus, I don't know.
They're based.
They don't own Hoya, They're
just imports.
Hold on.
Yeah.
American distributor.
He's a distributor.
Oh, OK.
For Hoya de Nicaragua and
Quesada, right.
OK.
So it's a distribution company.
He's now the CEO.
Yeah.
And before he was the global
chief officer of a right brand.
We don't know a lot about Ricky
All.
Right, Enrique.
All right.
All those, Enrique?
Previously, he was also the VP
of Marketing for Drew Estate and
Executive VP of Marketing for
Royal Aggio USA.
During his time at Drew Estates
he worked with 1/2 of the SAG
and Poor group, just half of
them.
SAG.
The other half didn't like it.
It's not sag.
I like SAG OK.
It's the same group that gives
you the union card for being an
actor.
The Screen Actors Guild.
Yes, same, same group got it.
But this is the the other half
he dealt with.
Half, yeah.
He didn't do it.
He didn't deal with the actors.
Nothing to do with the actors.
No, no, the other half.
The other side From 2008 to
2025, Drew Estate was Hoya de
Nicaragua's American
distributor.
Yep.
Hey, here's a quote from him.
What should his voice be?
What do you?
Think I'm thinking Russian Ivy.
Yeah, Ivy sounds Jewish.
Yeah, no, it's Spanish.
I'm thinking Russian.
I'm going Russian and I'm going.
You can do.
Russian better than me?
I can't read though.
Squeaky Russian.
I'll tell you what you're
saying.
No, I don't.
No, it's OK.
I'll give you 4 words at a time.
No, I want you to do it.
Squeaky Russian.
I'm gonna end up being Chinese.
I'm just.
I moved the Chinese, then I
moved the Chinese.
I think squeaky.
Chinese.
Squeaky Chinese.
Squeaky Chinese.
Yeah.
Yeah, good.
I am honored to.
Leave.
That's not squeaky enough.
I am honored to.
There you go.
It looks like Jonathan Drew in
Chinese.
Yeah, you could do like one
thing.
Said Flores Estrada in the press
release.
Of course he did.
I have no idea what he said, but
you sound like a minion.
The talent and passion already
on the team is remarkable.
OK.
Today, we honor the heritage of
both families and grow with
something less.
That's like Russian Chinese or
German Chinese or something.
He almost sounds like the guy
from Rory used to play like
zombies on Call of Duty.
No, but go ahead.
It sounds.
Like that sounds like that's
good dude, I love that.
All right, moving on.
Moving on.
Pariah's Cigars announces #39.
Well, that's I guess that's the
number we're at.
At his first line, this is his
first cigar.
It's the 30 ninths.
It's.
Still got 39 tries.
Yeah, one for 38, but we sucked.
We got there.
Prize Cigar is the new brand
created by Daniel Lance, Esteban
Disla and Kevin Baxter, has
announced its first cigar #39
according to a press release #39
is an initial chapter built
around meaning, symbolism, and a
distinct visual and product
identity.
Is made-up of three blends and
releases at a 7 by 60 box Press
Super Toro. 7 by 60.
Super Toro.
Super Toro.
The inspiration across all three
cigars was to create blends that
are extraordinarily
approachable, with flavors that
arrive clearly on the palate and
land consistently across smokers
with very different levels of
experiences.
Sounds very.
AI it's a 7 by 80.
Yeah.
Like it's not going to taste
like much.
It's a 7 by 60.
Same thing.
Whatever.
Same thing. 7 by 60.
It's delicious.
There's three of them.
There's a black one that there
is a red one and there is a
white one.
OK.
Oh, it sounds a lot like New
Tampa.
Oh W Tampa.
West Tampa, they did a black red
in a way.
Didn't.
Well, Macau's doing color too.
We're all doing colors now.
But these are the exact same
colors that W Tampa did.
Got it.
Maybe they both got their ideas
from AI.
You should just make three
colors.
Just make three colors, right?
Is it like a red cigar or just a
red label?
Got a red label.
Red Band.
Red band.
All three blends are exactly the
same price.
How much is this?
Lovely, Wonderful 7 by 60,
Michael. $10.
Billy.
This company's first cigar.
Well, yeah, 39th try.
Yeah, let's go. 18 bucks. 01399.
I won.
Oh, buy a penny.
It's got an unusual box down.
How many in a box?
Oh. 8. 13. 40.
I was closer.
So the box cost $559.60.
Oh, I'm not sorry.
Think they were the first cigar
you'd make a smaller box?
Yeah.
Get more people a chance to try.
Yeah, like, take, listen, you
can't have conversations with
these people.
They know what they're doing.
You got to cough up $600.00.
You want to try my cigar?
All right.
OK, All right.
It's time for the industry's
favorite game.
What's the score?
And thank you, Mr. T Money for
your suggestion on how to change
the game.
But as we discussed, that just
won't work.
Oh, he gave you Intel?
He gave me a suggestion and then
before I could tell him why it
wouldn't work, he told me he
goes, oh, never mind, you're
right, it won't work.
All right, Aren't you supposed
to tell me about something that
he did or something?
Am I supposed to tell you what?
No, he already told you.
I don't know.
He told me.
He told you.
He told me that he didn't tell
me.
And they told me that you had to
tell me.
Well, then he probably should
have told me that he's going to
tell you that.
Not to say, you know, so that I
can tell you because he's also
already posted it on social
media and tagged both of us in
it.
I did see it OK.
I'm going to talk about.
It he got a pee tattoo, he got
the post on you pee.
He did.
He got a post on his.
On his.
Forearm, it's a bad.
Ass tattoo.
I like the flag.
It is, It's a nice touch.
He's afraid you didn't like the
flag.
No, I loved that, I thought.
The flag was nice too.
I might get the flag out of the
mine.
Yeah, you should.
Yeah, you should have the flag.
How many peas are in existence
now?
I think that's it's either
number 5 or 6.
Yeah, it's up to get up there.
He gets his.
He gets his.
Paola.
His Paola.
He doesn't.
He's not even aware of that.
Yeah, he is.
Is he?
Yeah.
He has Paul.
Did he do that before he got the
tattoo or?
Yes, he did.
He heard about it before.
He knew about it before he gets
his Paola.
It came up on the the zoom thing
I did because mine.
You see, I could do this.
Yeah, apparently.
Sounds good to me.
What was the suggestion?
What do you mean?
To change the game.
Is that what we were?
Talking about.
No, him and I forget who the
other gentleman was.
They they noticed that Charlie
Minato takes two to three times
longer to smoke a cigar than
anybody else.
Yeah.
So I guess in some of the older
reviews it says how long they
took them to smoke it.
That was going to be a separate
game called Guess the Time or
something.
We don't have that kind of time,
yeah.
Right.
I mean, and I go.
So I asked him one question and
they say the answer and then
we're done, right?
As it goes, very exciting moving
on.
Maybe it could be a bonus?
This is why T Money doesn't have
his own podcast.
I guess you know well, and in
the new ones they don't even.
Then he goes, oh, they didn't
put the time in anymore, never
mind.
Oh, he didn't even research it
before he had an opinion,
Correct.
Nice complete T smooth attaboy.
But very nice tattoo.
It's awesome.
Yeah, we'll have to hook him up
the.
Fact that he put it on his butt
was a little weird when he sent
me a photo, but you know, it is
what it is I guess.
Like you didn't know there was
going to be a little joke there.
Yeah, he's not getting away.
Clean.
Come.
On obviously on the butt, no.
Sorry, Next May 1st cigar, May
23rd 2023 Charlie Minato Cigars.
It's a Honduran JRE tobacco
limited edition Aladino Candela
robusto. 87 Aladino.
Candela.
Honduran, 2023. 82.
Country of origin Honduras
factory fabrica de puros aladino
at Las Lomas Amistran that
Honduran corojo candela.
It is a Honduras Corojo binder.
Filler is also corojo length 5
by 50 and they smoked. 388.
It was so fast, going to switch
the camera A2.
Well, you reach for your drink
to be.
Fair, no, my fingers are on the
buns at all times.
He's got his watch under the
table 'cause he doesn't want to
take it off.
Dude #1.
I've had it up.
Here, it just dinged.
Put it back down.
Unique and enjoyable sweetness
profile.
The cigar delivers a standout
natural honey like sweetness
that shifts between sugar,
citrus, and even light T notes
layered with creaminess and
earthiness.
It's especially impressive given
there's no sweetened cap, making
it one of the more memorable
natural sweet profiles in recent
history. 89. 82.
Clue number 22 of the three
cigars showcase very solid
construction with a good draw,
consistent burnt and smoke
production that improved nicely
after the first few puffs,
allowing the core flavor profile
to really shine. 88. 82.
Clue #3 Inconsistency Withdraw
and burn One cigar suffered from
a tight draw that impacted
flavor delivery and required
correction, while multiple
cigars needed touch ups in the
latter in the later thirds,
pointing to some inconsistency
across the samples.
Insects.
What was the number?
Trying to beat you to it 86. 82.
Final thought for those of you
that don't like the candela
cigars you had to date, This
could very well be the one that
becomes your favorite candela.
But I hope you like sweetness,
in particular the first step of
cigar.
I had a lot of sweet notes.
Oh, the gong went off.
It strongly reminded me of honey
sweet and green tea beverage.
Some of that might be the color
association, but the honey
sweetness is as strong as I
found it.
Any cigar that isn't flavored.
The upside for those of you who
haven't enjoyed in candela is
that outside of the sweetness
there is not much the typical
candela flavors, specially that
dry hay flavor that I often find
a tight draw on.
The second cigar hurt the score
a lot, but this very well might
be my favorite candela cigar
I've ever smoked. 84.
It's a.
Good number.
And.
Who was this?
Charlie Minato.
Charlie Minato. 85 He's nice.
What did you say, 84?
You went the right way.
Yeah, 7:00.
Bing bong.
Burglars, burglars, burglars.
Damn.
Second cigar December 21st,

Cerberus Lancero.
Oh, I just went to the other
day.
Oh, I'm first.
Yeah, sorry I had a camera on
you.
I'm like, why isn't he talking?
What am I pulling the rope?
Am I on the rock?
What?
Am I going to do 89?
This is a good cigar.
I keep adding rocks on this
rock.
I keep putting more rocks on
though, hey.
What do you guys, you're pulling
that?
Oh, I'm gonna throw my rock up
there too.
No rock.
They won't even notice.
Yeah, there's a no big deal
they're.
Working so hard they won't care.
Well, oh, what?
How'd that get up there?
I don't know.
What is that so weird?
Why the heck it's so weird?
Why does it say fill on it?
Wow, what'd you say?
I'm not telling you because of
that comment she made. 84.
Is that what he said or is that
what you said?
That's.
What I said all.

Oh, they're free.
OK, 89. 85.
Clue #1 The cigar delivers a
standout natural honey like
sweetness that shifts between
sugar, citrus and even light.
That's the exact same one as
before.
Right, you just copy paste it.
You stole Charlie's.
Now is it word for word?
It's the exact same one.
He stole it.
That's plagiarism, Patrick.
Well, let's jump to the final
thought.
We have now figured out Patrick.
All the yeah, they're.
Unless you messed it up.
Unless I did it.
Yeah, you probably messed it up.
Well our ChatGPT just gave me
the same 1 twice.
Palmer, look it up on your phone
real quick.
No, I don't even know where it's
at.
You want me to look it up?
No.
OK, alright, here's the final
thought.
Call Greg.
To put it bluntly, my experience
with the gardening of the Farm
Service Lancera was not a good
one.
The first cigars wrapper leaf
started to split upon cutting
the cap and throughout the
smoking process, while the
flavor seemed disjointed and in
congruent incongruent, the
second and third cigars had
combustion that was frustrating
at best, infuriating at worst.
While none of the trio offered
the kind of profile that made me
feel like the blend had been
dialed in, there are moments
that are intriguing, such as the
honey Graham cracker.
And while the general profile
seems like it's close to being
better, it's simply not.
The flavor struggles to land a
solid combination and instead
relies on more basic a
combination of flavors and
lingering pepper finish, both of
which stimulate but do not
satisfy.
Unfortunately, all three cigars
for this consistent performance,
the guard of the Farm Service
Lancero is a hard pass for me.
Fell.
Yes, I'm thinking.
You forgot to go.
There you go.
Rev that motor. 77.
Damn 78.
You went the right way. 79 We
split the day well.
Good, because now there's no.
No fireworks.
Sparklers.
No sparklers, OK.
We planned it that way.
Where are we going to be?
We're going to be at the PCA
from the 15th, from the 16th and
to the 21st.
Something like that. 18th to the
20th.
Well, that's the actual show,
but we're going to be there
though. 16th and and New
Orleans.
I'm heading home Monday.
You're what?
We're heading home Monday.
We're heading on Monday.
I'm going to head home on
Monday.
Going to come back?
Yeah, There's one more day of
the show on Monday.
No it isn't.
It's Saturday, Sunday, Monday I
think.
Is it 18/19/21?
The 18th.
So the 15th is Wednesday, 16th
is Thursday, 17th is Friday,
18th is Saturday, Saturday,
Sunday, Monday.
I'm heading home Monday.
Well, I'm in your car.
So we all leave then, yeah?
Why?
Why would they have the show on
Monday?
That's what they did, Yeah.
I thought in the normal, it used
to be Friday, Saturday, Sunday,
yeah.
It doesn't make sense.
Now it's Saturday, Sunday,
Monday, I don't know, maybe
Allegiant flies on Thursdays
and.
Tuesday, Wednesday.
Thursday.
I don't really think it matters
what day it's on.
I mean, I understand your thing
when people stay, but if I'd
been there for a week, last
thing I want to do is stay
longer, show my wife around.
I think people would stay if
they show up on Tuesday.
Maybe the retailers, I don't
think that the industry people.
No, they don't want to stick.
Around, we don't want to stay.
OK.
That's it.
Do we want to tell about the
special show on Wednesday?
Thursday.
Not yet.
OK.
All right, That's it.
Thank you.
It's episode 500 and.
Something something.
Hey, 7 or 8 I don't.
Remember como sis on the
Patreon?
I.
Watch you on the Patreon.
We're going to smoke this thing.
