ACHP 592 Sit Down And Stop It
Episode Summary
Episode 592 of A Cigar Hustler's Podcast finds Mike "BD" Palmer joined again by co-host Triple G (with "the King" helping in engineering) while Phil sits this one out — a running gag that carries through the whole show. The first half is classic unfiltered Hustlers banter: listener comments from the chpod.com lounge and YouTube (including the new feature that pulls YouTube comments into the lounge), an ongoing Phil's Eagle mask auction, an Iran/Strait of Hormuz war update, new FCC restrictions on foreign-made robot vacuums and robotic lawnmowers, a canceled flight caused by a toddler who wouldn't stay buckled, a Florida Publix parking-lot fight involving a machete and a hatchet, and a deep-dive detour into whether movie theater "butter" is actually butter (it isn't — it's flavored vegetable oil topping).
The cigar news segment is where the guys get genuinely worked up. They breeze past Tradecraft's Gladius Box Press (a $12.65, 5.5x52 box-pressed 109 Belicoso-headed quarterly release made in the Dominican Republic, tied to Rob Blumenthal), then spend real time tearing into Davidoff's new "Boutique Selection" — exclusive cigars available only at the company's own flagship stores in Geneva, Hong Kong and Madison Avenue. Palmer's argument: a wholesaler selling blends you can only buy in its own retail shops is a slap in the face to the brick-and-mortar retailers who built the brand. They also cover Spain's proposed smoking ban, which would prohibit smoking on terraces, at open-air events, stadiums, bull rings, beaches, bus stops and public parks — and eliminate the exemption for private smokers' clubs, making it the strictest in the European Union.
The show closes with a double round of "What's the Score?", the guys' game of guessing a half-wheel review score before it's revealed. First up is the El Mago Limited Edition Collectible Tin Series Calvary (Nicaragua, MGE Cigars, 5x50 pressed, $11) with notes of creamy cake donut, vanilla, warm Chex Mix and pepper, dinged for combustion issues and relights — final score 85, with Palmer nailing it. Second is the Room 101 Death Bucket 2 (Fábrica de Tabacos Joya de Nicaragua, Habano wrapper, Indonesian binder, Condega/Estelí/Jalapa filler, 6x52 Toro, $12), praised for wood, earth, pepper and creaminess plus essentially flawless construction — a 93. Patreon listeners get the crew's full review of the Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust Tabaca Negra Corona Gorda (5.63x48).

Welcome to a Cigar Hustler Podcast where the cigars are premium, the opinions that are unfiltered, and the conversations have no boundaries. Welcome to a Cigar Hustler Podcast where the cigars are premium, the opinions that are unfiltered, and the conversations have no boundaries. I'm your host, Mike BD.
There'll be no boundaries. I'm your host, Mike BD. P. Palmer, and in the co-host seat, backed by popular demand, Mr.
Triple G. I live here now. You are on more than Phil. I am on more than Phil, it's true.
You can have Phil's check this month. Oh, good, good. And then over helping out in engineering, the man, the myth, the legend, we call him the king, mostly because he makes us. Here I am.
I don't make you, and I'm smoking this today, and it's burning perfectly. Is that the same when you were smoking Friday, still burning perfectly? It's a totally different cigar. Whether it's cigars, sports, business, current events, pop culture, or the craziest stories making the headlines, if it's worth talking about.
You need to raise your mic. I do? No, you are back in your breathe zone. Oh.
Raise my mic. Yeah. It's ridiculous. So angry.
But when I go too high, he's rubbing your beard! He's rubbing your beard! You gotta get that special place right between the eyes. Somewhere between the chiclets.
How are we at now? Can we breathe? Go ahead. Let me breathe test.
Perfect. How about now? Thank you. Move your beard.
Now it's in a little bit. Okay. Now it's out? Okay.
Okay. Greg, don't breathe. Obviously, no scripts. No safe spaces.
Just honest conversation. Big laughs in the kind of show that can go from premium cigars to what's going on with Greg's clothes in a matter of seconds. Every episode is a real conversation, different perspectives, and plenty of unexpected turns along the way. The way, so settle in, welcome back to a Cigar Hustler Podcast.
On today's show, we're back at war, either that or a toddler's having a fit, it's hard to tell anymore. Number five is alive, and it's against the law. Johnny number five? Uh, yes.
Short circuit? Yes, it's against the law. Can it be alive? Is alive, Johnny.
Then a second toddler was given control of a plane. What happened to the first toddler? The first toddler. The first toddler was the one in the war.
We're either back to war or there's a toddler having a fit. You can't tell. You don't know. The first toddler said, "You got this," and then jumped out the plane.
Publix Bogo involves a machete and a hand axe. Okay. Then in cigars, we have a new cigar from Davidoff. They said it's a new cigar, kind of.
No smoking if you're going to Spain. And then we're going to double up on what's the score. But first, Mikey, how do we get some of that CHPod swag? What are all the comments?
And I noticed something different. You noticed something different? Yes. What did you notice different?
If you go to the lounge, it shows you the comments from YouTube. No way. Yes. What?
It'll say YouTube comment. No. Yes. That's awesome.
You only got to go one place now. Oh, check that out. That's amazing. Did you do that?
How did that happen? Did it do-do-do-do-do? Did it do that on its own? Is Claude making changes without being asked?
Is the robot in charge now? Uh-oh. I had an issue with the update on the episode, so maybe as it kind of was pulling the feed, it started pulling the comments feed too. That's amazing.
Skynet. Skynet is real. Skynet. We're gonna be fighting the Roombas here in about five days.
Oh, they're against the law, wait and see. I just watched, I finished watching Good Luck, Something, Don't Die. Yeah. Did you watch this movie?
Yeah, great film. Amazing. Yeah. Good Luck, Don't Die?
Yeah. It's very similar to that. It's like, good luck, have fun, don't die. Yeah, yeah, that was it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's a very good movie. Yeah, actually, it really was. I enjoyed it.
Yeah, very, very similar to like the old, what was the one where the answer was 72 or 48, The Meaning of Life? You don't remember this? No. The Meaning of Life with Mel Brooks?
Never mind. Space movie? Yeah, it's a space movie. Spaceballs?
Nope, not Spaceballs. Ready, Kafka? That's not it. No?
Uh, Hail Mary? Mr. Coffee. No, that's not it.
Hail Mary? Star Wars! A maze, a maze, a maze. Star Trek: No.
Did you see, did you say, did you see Hail Mary? I don't think so. What was that? Asteroid.
With Rocky? Asteroid. With Rocky? With Rocky?
Yeah. Yo, Adrian. With Rocky. He's a rock?
Oh. Oh, that's Hail Mary. So, yeah. So, I did watch that.
That was pretty good, but the way that I watched it was kind of messed up. Like, I watched the first. No volume? No, but actually, I watched it in Chinese.
So I watched like the first half, but then forgot half of the half that I saw, and then I watched the end, and then I watched the middle of it. It was basically like a Quentin Tarantino film for me. Oh, wow. Yeah, all out of order.
Oh, in the movie "Out of Order" with the spaceships flying into the dilapidated building? No. Amaze, amaze, amaze. No?
No. Well, first of all, like and subscribe if you're reviewing or watching the show. com for all your chpod swag. And some comments, some comments, there might be a giveaway up there, I don't know, so I'm gonna do it, it might be up there.
Now I didn't see that, I saw the old one, I think. Oh. Is it because you can't see? No, no.
Phil's Eagle Mask is crushing it at 46 bucks. Oh, I read that wrong and I thought it was $200. Two, how did you get, how did. I think underneath it says two or 200 or something.
You should not be an accountant, just so you know. No, no, no, I'm not the accountant, that's not my job. That's his job. Yeah, that's entertaining too.
Right. With my man, Chris Weiss, refuses to go away. Refuses to go away. He is going for this mask as well.
I have seen the other, Corey had bid as well, and so did Charles. But Christopher is in the lead. He wants them all. He's like Thanos.
uh there's no comments yet on that uh on that page just so you know but there are comments on the lounge okay let's see so so is 591 the most recent one yes it is yes are you sure about that yes this is 592 oh perfect oh yeah it's got the transcript and everything this is lovely Hey, you can read the whole episode if you like. Wow. @lancefrazier4748 says, "I like knowing what y'all are smoking. Beings new anyway.
" Thank you. Oh, very nice. Thank you, very nice. Thank you, Lance.

No, no, no, I'm not smoking the SBC. Oh, you're smoking the Connecticut. Oh, you got a Section 8 there? " It's gonna be live in the studio.
That's lovely. We're looking forward to it. So we can't do the show before 11:00? No?
He can't get here until 11:00. Oh, I was gonna ask to do it before 11:00. Will Phil be available tomorrow? We don't, we don't know.
Could be yes, could be go fuck yourself, I don't know. Do we need to, like, set up an area for, like, a live viewing audience? Bunch of chairs? No, no, no, they just sit down wherever.
No, we're there, or a wreck there, whatever you want. Yeah. Alright. Yeah.
Why, do you need them to be able to see you at all times? They need to see me, for sure. Oh. They need to be in direct line.
We'll sit them, we'll sit them next to you. I appreciate that, that's good. @realsmokepod says, Palmer, you better put some energy behind talking about the creek. They will send creek money and his creek crew after you.
Yeah. Oh, no. Oh boy, oh boy. Well, you met him.
Is our T-Money bigger than their T-Money? He's in shape. I'd say he's solid. That doesn't answer the question.
I think our T-Money's bigger. Speaking of shape, did you hear that Jake arm-wrestled Gio upstairs? And Gio won. Jake won.
- What? I don't know who Gio is. - Gio is the, like, guy that works at a gym that's like a personal trainer. - Oh, that looks like him.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, young, jacked, yeah, and then Jake, just, mmm, no way, he let him win. " - We don't talk about that. We don't talk about that, is what Gio said? Yeah, we're not discussing it.
He's very strong. Don't say it on the air. Okay. They didn't film it?
No. I heard this video. Well, if it took place upstairs, it's probably a video. All I just need to know is the timeline when it happened.
No, no, I think that they filmed it. Oh, did they? Yeah. Oh, okay.
At Real Smoke Pod says, Palmer, you better put some... Oh, I already said that. You already read that. You want to threaten me again?
Go ahead. Oh, wait, here's a new one. At Real Smoke Pod says, Palmer, you better put some energy behind talking about the creek. They will send Kreek money and his Kreek crew out to you.
Oh, no, Kreek money is coming. @RooksCoding says, "Only time I had a burn issue was incorrect lighting. I have had two boxes so far. I just got my third box, but it's a Gran Toro.
" Yep. It's true. It's true. It's true, Charlie.
It's true. Number two to all the way down on the toilet. Thanks so much, bud. You're dead to me.
Not really though, I still like you. Charlie? Yeah. Oh, the other Charlie.
Yeah. Charlie Minano, not the Charles Rooks coding who just said... Oh, sorry. Yeah.
Come on. At Brett Mercurio says, "This just in, Mrs. " Oh, no. Did you hear about this?
Did you hear what they did? No. They genetically enhanced giraffes so that they made them small so you can have them in your home? Oh, wow.
Yeah. Tiny giraffes. Yeah. This is very bad.
It can play with your tiny cow. Yeah, I don't have it. No, we're not getting a tiny anything. You're going to have like a whole mini farm is what it's going to be called.
A mini zoo. Oh my God, it's so much. We have a chicken living on the patio right now. Why?
He's moved in? Because it's too, it's too small to mix with the other chickens. The other chickens will destroy it, so it has to grow bigger before we integrate it. So there's chicken shit all over your patio?
No, it's in a cage, but it's on the other side of the patio. It's not by like where we sit. Over where the hot tub used to be? No, it's on the opposite side of where the hot tub is.
Oh, on the other side where you, with the grill. Oh, that's good. You can cook it that way. No, unfortunately.
I thought we were capped out with our chicken amount. So, it's funny. I don't know. Apparently, they're like gremlins.
She's getting them wet after midnight, and there's all of a sudden just more chickens. Uh-oh. There's just more. I thought we had five.
Shut up, Greg. No. So, I got tricked. I thought there were six.
There's eight. And we lost one. So, apparently, there was nine. Uh-oh.
There was nine. How'd you lose one? Do you forget where you put it? Oh, no.
Raccoon got in. Oh, yeah. They're vicious animals. They will shred that thing.
Very bad. Yeah. So you have no control about what goes on in your house is what you're pretty much saying. Well, not when it comes to the chickens.
Yeah. Or your food. I have very little control over the chickens. Or your food.
But we're not getting a giraffe. A baby giraffe. It's a tiny giraffe. Yeah, it's a mini one.
We're definitely not getting a giraffe. It's a mini giraffe. I can only imagine what that thing costs. A couple G's.
No way. Yeah, you're fine. Pocket money. Tiger's like $12,000, $13,000.
Yeah, we tried that tiger thing. You can't get one. You don't have enough room. It doesn't work.
Yeah. So, I mean, you know, a genetically engineered giraffe has got to be a lot of money. Yeah. They're cheap.
They're small. Yeah. I don't think so. They eat lettuce.
And grass. Yeah. Imagine being so confused. Like, you know, you've got thousands of years of genetic memory of you eating from the top of trees and then all of a sudden you wake up and you're like four feet tall.
Like, you're not eating trees anymore. It doesn't know that. It's just born. No.
There are certain things that are, like, inherited that you remember due to genetics. The top of the tree because that's what they can reach. Well, they're designed to do that, with a long neck. " Where's my tree?
Where's my tree? We can't get to the tree. He eats bushes. He's sitting here eating food out of the garbage can.
Even those pterodactyl ferns you put in your yard. Pterodactyl ferns. Whatever that thing was. The staghorn ferns.
Yeah, there we go. By the way, there is no such thing as a miniature giraffe. Oh, how disappointing. A baby one died the other day and it looked like a miniature.
And we just talk about having many in drafts. " Always. Always. Always put the pressure on that guy.
That's why he's not here today. Yeah, so he's actually crying today. Yep. He's over there on the other side.
Over there, crying. Yeah, sobbing. Sobbing. He said that's the best he can do.
He said it's not good enough. You might actually hear him sobbing later on in this show. So, you're off the show today. Yeah, you could hear him sobbing.
I just have to pay attention. " You're right. You're right. That makes complete sense, Mr.
Hasselhoffman. Household name. It says so right there. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You ain't wrong. You ain't wrong. com lounge, and you might want to check out chpod, because there might be a giveaway, I don't know, I don't know, apparently, you couldn't find it. I saw one, but I thought that was the last one.
com, Cigar Hustlers Podcast, where today, we are reviewing the Hoya, wait, no, not the Hoya, the Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust. A Negra. A Negra. Which weighs in at...
Tup-a-tup-a, tup-a-tup-a-tup-a-tup-a. 8 grams. Ooh. I don't know.
We'll have to check that. What size is it? It's Corona Gorda. Oh.
63 by 48. This is a new one. We've discussed this, haven't we? This is a new one.
That's why we're gonna... That was in a cedar sleeve. Oh, yeah, I haven't smoked it yet. Oh, me either.
Interesting. Well, congratulations, we just bought it for you. And by bought, we mean we took it downstairs. Yeah, I'm aware.
We pay for our cigars. Yeah, we pay for them. Sometimes. Sometimes they get lost.
Do they? Yeah, there was, there have been a couple. I know. What got lost?
Well, there was a recent one for like five and change, I think. Five dollars? A five dollar cigar? No, no, no, no.
There was like a whole tab that like fell off. Oh, no, we paid ours. No, we paid ours. That wasn't us.
I'd pay them when they get to a certain point and we have money. Oh, okay. The two have to equal out. The money and then the tab.
Okay, pay it. We got the hundred bucks. Pay it. Now we're zero again.
Congratulations. They fucked up and gave us a credit card. I mean, it's fine. No problem.
It's not like we got a high break. Oh, boy. Yeah. That's great.
No problem. Wait, you want money? No, just slide the plastic. It's fine.
It's no big deal. It's fine. You don't need money. I take this and I put it on and I take this stuff.
It's perfect. Okay, so yeah, check out our Patreon and yeah, let's get on with the show. All right, end of the news. We have an Iran war update.
We're back at war. Everybody, we're at war? Oh, so we're back at? We're back at war again.
Okay. We didn't work it out? Nope. Big shocker.
Big shocker. S. corrects its behavior. Oh, yes.
We've been bad. We're bad people. There's what you need to know about the Iran war today. Iran targeted a vessel owned by the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company.
Uh-oh. Yeah, they shouldn't do that. In the Straits of Hormuz on Saturday, despite ongoing talks with Oman over how to manage the dispute waterway. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Agrakachi on Saturday said talks with Oman were approaching the final stages but cautioned that this is not a sign of reopening the Straits of Hormuz.
So apparently that's the guy who owns Abu Dhabi oil. He was cutting his side deal to get his ships through and he thought he had the okay and he sent it through. No, no, no, they shot it. See, that's what happens with people that are really rich.
They have these privileges. They think they can get away with it. They thought they could. Not today.
Not today. ISIS said not today. That's right. It wasn't even not today ISIS.
It was ISIS said not today, allegedly. S. S. S.
must never, okay, these are what they want. Leave us alone. S. must never threaten Iran again.
Okay, well, you can just full stop right there, because that's where we, all right, get number one done, might as well throw the rest of this paperwork away, we're done. Two, end the blockade. Okay. Three, withdraw all military assets from the region.
Never gonna happen. We would like Donald Trump to not take interviews with a teddy bear on the desk. Lift all sanctions, unfreeze assets, and compensate Iran for everything we damaged when we bombed them. Wow.
Pretty tall order. Pretty much asking for everything. You know, this guy sounds like William Wallace is what he sounds like. I'm not finished.
I'm not finished. I want you to go to every town and ask for forgiveness for a hundred years of rape and murder. And we all know how that movie ended, too. Yeah.
S. S. Central Command. So that was our reply.
Right. On Saturday, Mohamed Bagheer Zolgader, a member of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, issued a string of demands for the straits to be reopened. So this is a different guy. He's got his own demands.
We have some of our own demands. Well, no, this is the second guy in the same organization. I, too, would like. I, too, would like something.
I need a sandwich and a bagel. I would like. One peepee touch. I would like to touch Trump's peepee.
First of all, they're against Israel, so there's no bagels. Oh, no bagels. Yeah, we'll not take the bagels. That's why he wants one.
He can't get them there. Oh, makes sense. S. to rescind the blockades.
This guy doesn't want to blockade either. S. must never. Oh, this is all the same.
This guy's got the same demands as the other guy. S. must also say they will not detect us. Oh, he wants complete compensation.
He wants a little different. An unconditional, so he wants specific, he wants really extra things. I would like payment for my emotional stress about the Strait of Hormuz. One ship full of gold.
One ship full of gold. And a touch to peepee. One peepee touch. So, uh, yeah, we're just, we kept the blockade, we went, pfft, and then...
I mean, just go level these guys. What are we doing? This is just stupid. Well, they've got that Stargate thing.
Oh, we just call it United States of Iran, whatever. It's dope. What's the problem? United States of America.
You know? Straight of US. Straight of US. Straight of US.
Just start labeling all the waterways United States. Yeah. Trump's got a big Sharpie in his office with a map. Yeah.
Just man-baby the... Trump Island right here. Just man-baby the hell out of this. I mean, what are we doing?
Like, here's what we're doing. It's ours now. The children's crossing off the names, writing new things. Listen, we couldn't come to terms.
It's ours. We're taking it. Name this one after my daughter. Name this one after my wife.
I would call this one Ivanka. Ivanka. All right, now we got Trump's new robotics rules. Uh-oh.
These are new laws. Oh. The household items impacted. The Trump administration is putting new restrictions on foreign-made robots, and this one could actually affect what you buy for your house.
Skynet? The Federal Communications Commission has expanded its national security restrictions to cover certain foreign-made advanced robotic devices. And we're not just talking about humanoid robots walking around factories, we're talking about things like robot vacuums, cleaners, robotic lawnmowers, other autonomous machines that can navigate their surroundings, use cameras or sensors, and connect to a network. Mm.
Yet my phone is constantly listening to me and tracking everything that I do and has been ever since I've had it. That's fine, we're American. It can only move around, though, if you let it. You have to take it with you.
Yeah. The concern of these items are mapping out our houses, mapping out our yards. It's worse than that. The phone is mapping out who you are and the way that you spend money.
Like they don't need a gun to control you anymore. They just need your spending habits. But that doesn't tell them where to send the bomb. That just tells them what to sell you.
Well, Google Maps will tell you where to send the bomb. Right. Well, that's because they get the information from your vacuum. The concern is data.
Many of these machines can map the inside of a home, recognize objects, collect information through cameras and sensors, and communicate that information over Wi-Fi back to China. This is complete horseshit. Look, you could go onto a property appraisers website and you could get the square footage of a home in the layout. This is ridiculous.
I think it's just like presenting us that they're doing something to protect us from the robots, whereas realistically you're not protected from the robots. Oh, they're, they're bad, they're bad robots. They're like, okay, buddy. You're not protected from the robot.
I could, I could tell you exactly the square footage of your home. It would take me 10 minutes to look it up. Do you know where I keep my guns? Yes, in your closet.
Wrong! In the safe in your closet. I don't have a safe. I have no children in the house.
Rather than spending all this-- They're just laying around randomly. --all this money on preventing this. Can they just stop my Roomba from detecting, or not detecting dog vomit? Oh, no, the worst.
Oh, my God. Oh, it runs over poop? The poop? That's when we threw ours away when it ran over somebody's diarrhea.
We came home a week, week and a half ago, and we have two Roombas for whatever reason, I have no idea. So rich. So rich. And the big black dog threw up, so it was a lot, and the whole house was just covered.
We threw away the Roombas, it was a disaster. I took one apart and cleaned it one time. Why would you do that? Well, I'm not rich like you.
I can't just throw these things away. They're four or five hundred dollars. Even with like dog shit up inside of it? I cleaned it out good.
Rubber gloves, masks. That's a lot of work. Surgical equipment, just tiny little because it's everywhere you're getting all sorts of stuff out of there yeah so bad I don't have a room but I don't anymore I haven't my wife decided it didn't clean well I haven't had one for years you step two I want me yeah no you had a wet and a dry it was yeah you bragged when you got the wet and the dry it was the set I would like one that mops again to be the mop one was the best When we had all tile floors? Yeah.
The mop one was the best. Except you had, well, yours auto-refilled the spray that went in it? I don't think so. Oh.
Mine didn't either. But yeah, but the house sure did smell good when you come home though. Yeah, I love that. S.
market. Hey, I know we're talking about this, but I just want to pivot real quick. Did you see if Mr. Clean has now come out with like this kind of fall spice for flooring, for mopping?
Fall spice? Yeah. Yeah, it's very exciting. Very excited about this.
Does it smell like pumpkin and stuff? Like pumpkin spice? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't like the stuff that smells like food.
Then I'm always hungry. No, it doesn't smell like pumpkin spice, but it smells like the broom. Remember the brooms? Oh, yeah, the cinnamon brooms.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. The white women love that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. The white women love that.
I almost bought it at Costco, but then I realized I was poor. And I said, I'll skip it. Just the cleaning fluid? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I was like, 12 bucks, bro. I'm out of here. I still got some Fabuloso left. I gotta burn through that.
It worked so well, too. The purple? The purple guy? The purple guy?
Yeah. Yep. " Okay. We don't or you don't?
Well, I mop. Oh. Sometimes. Oh.
Your vacuum cleaner may clean your floors, but apparently Washington is starting to wonder what else it knows about your house. I jumped to the end. Yeah, I mean, it's dumb. This is retarded.
I don't understand why this is made news. Because they're getting more autonomous and they're getting more sophisticated. But again, you can just look this shit up yourself, it's all-- But they can't see the inside of your house, the Roomba shows the inside of your house, it has a camera. It's gonna see my feet?
No, it's gonna pan up and see everything when you're not home. Who cares? What's it gonna see? I don't know, maybe you're doing weird stuff in front of the vacuum.
I don't know what you like. Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, go get the vacuum, go get the vacuum. My fetish is let the Roomba watch. I want the Roomba.
I want the Roomba to watch. Let the Roomba watch. We'll program it to pace back and forth, back and forth. I want it, I want to do it in front of the refrigerator.
Let's go. Oh yeah, your refrigerator has a camera on it. Yeah, and then turn on the dishwasher. I mean, what, what, what?
You can turn on all your appliances, what not? The washer and dryer's right there? Yeah, then, okay, then I get an email from China, like, we've seen your positions in the kitchen. Please stop sending this video.
Yeah, like, please stop sending these. Can you put the cover on the camera's sleeve before next time? Listen, we're sorry, we're sorry. All right, we didn't mean to turn this on.
We get it. We apologize. You're not going to believe this. Oh, what are you doing now?
It's doing it to the vacuum. Oh my goodness. Pull vacuum. Pull vacuum.
It must watch. Oh, so bad, so bad. Put vacuum, involve vacuum in interactions. The vacuum just killed itself.
Look at that what happened. He jumped in the dryer. I have a net around my house, so when it jumps out, I have to put it back to work. All right, a flight was canceled after a toddler refused to remain seated with a seatbelt fastened.
I get it. Leaving passengers stranded overnight. Terrible parenting. According to a report by Fox News, the incident occurred as the aircraft was preparing for departure.
The young child would not stay seated and properly buckled, which prevented the flight from taking off. That's like two years of terrible parenting is what that is. Federal Aviation safety requirements require passengers age two and older to occupy their own seats with a seat belt fastened during taxi takeoff and landing. The crew reportedly gave the family time to get the child seated and secured, but the situation was not resolved.
The aircraft had already begun the departure process and continued delay eventually created additional operational problems for the flight. The flight was ultimately canceled, forcing passengers to leave the aircraft. How did you not just kick the family off the plane? I mean, if it's my kid, I'm just getting off.
Yeah, just take the kid. Look, you know what, I'm sorry. Me and Felix here are just getting off the plane. Felix?
Well, his name's gotta be Felix. He doesn't listen. It's absolutely Felix. Felix is a kid that doesn't listen.
Do you risk smacking him on the ass? No, then some person in the back jumps up and runs up. I got a video of that. You hit your child.
That's nice. I don't care that I strike that person, too. Now they're both knocked out. Let's get this plane out of here.
Do you ever see the parody of the slap or whatever? And, like, there was a show back in the day called The Slap where a guy slapped another person's kid or whatever, didn't make it out of season one. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, I saw that. And then there was a parody of it on, like, SNL, where this guy's just going around to start smacking the hell out of everybody, like, tsh, tsh, tsh, like, you can't do that, and he starts slapping everybody.
Oh. No? Okay, you're a lot of fun right now, thanks. I was thinking of the airplane movie where the lady's frantically yelling.
It's basically the same thing, only modern done in the backyard. First strikes a kid, then another kid, then... Everybody's in line. Yeah, yeah, yeah, the adults start going to say something.
The nun's got the crowbar hitting in her hand, waiting in her head. Yeah, that's, and that movie was actually called "Airplane". I know, that's what I said. You said the airplane movie.
What's the difference, the airplane movie or the movie called "Airplane"? There's a big difference. No, it's not. One has an airplane in it, and one is about an airplane.
So you couldn't say the, you couldn't say the "Avengers" movie? No. Yeah, so I didn't say the "Avengers" movie, the movie about the "Avengers"? Couldn't say the "Spider-Man" movie?
No. It's not specific enough? Mm-mm. Which one?
All of them. Exactly. Because there's so many Spider-Mans. Saw the most recent one.
Yeah, what'd you think? Slightly disappointed. Told you. I'm not rich like you guys.
I looked and it was going to be $18. I'm like, I'm not going. Oh, we go on Tuesday. It's half price.
Oh, I wanted the... I didn't want the 4D because that's even more, but I was going to do the IMAX. Oh, nice. I don't do that.
It's very big. $18. Bro, I break a hundo every time I go to a movie. Well, you take a giant.
You have a tribe. I have to bring... I call them the squad. I bring the squad.
He brings the squad. Do you have to get them all snacks and stuff? Were you there too? Of course.
Oh, you're more than 100 now. I go with the one popcorn and the sodas. Do you eat the popcorn? No.
Yeah. Do you feel ill afterwards? No. I feel ill like every time.
Do you put the grease on it? Of course. The butter? The purpose of the popcorn without the grease.
Maybe you put too much. Maybe. Are you one of those people that fill it halfway? No, no, halfway.
And then you go and put the grease in. No, bro. I don't do that. It's four.
Four times. It's just a quarter, and then you put the grease a little bit more, more grease, a little bit more, more grease, and then the top layer of grease. Gee, I wonder why it wants to kill you. Yeah, no wonder you feel like you're gonna die.
Oh my God, my blood pressure's through the roof right now. I feel horrible. I feel like I've got grease running through my veins. I just had a tub of butter with some popcorn on top of it.
That's not even really butter. What is it? It's some type of chemical oil with butter flavoring. It's a chemical oil?
Yes, it's just oil. Butter flavored oil. It's not even real butter? No.
Stop it. Yes, it's not real butter. That's all betrayed. Have you, did it feel hot from the butter?
Because how else is he keeping it from turning salad in that container? Is the butter popcorn really butter at the movie theaters? Let me see. Do you want to use chowchee?
Is he just using the interwebs? The popcorn at the movies isn't made with butter at all. The kernels are often cooked in oil and all in one popcorn season. But wait, that's, but that's...
I want to know about the stuff that I'm pouring in the bucket. The additional. The self-applied. I want to know if the oil that I apply at a movie theater popcorn is actual butter.
Tell me, Mystic Machine. No, it is not. What are some brand named butter toppings used in theaters? Why is it an elusive?
This is, it didn't even do, use Chappie BT. Why are you using the poor man's robot? We pay for a robot. Ask the expensive robot.
Because when he asks the expensive robot, it sends him to the poor one now. It sends me a bill. That's what it does. Could you clarify by what you mean?
He asked Claude, Claude sends him to chat GPT. I'm going to go to Claude real quick. Really? No, it's a joke.
He's just kidding. All right. He doesn't want you to know, apparently. Hey, Claude.
Hey, Claude. So, I go to the movies, and I buy a tub of popcorn, and then I put what I believe is butter on it, when I go to the little stand. Is that stand actually butter, or is it some other solution? Hold on.
Hold on. Wait, wait, wait. Hold on. Quick answers.
Almost never real butter. Most movie theaters use what's called popcorn topping or buttery flavor topping, a blend that's usually made from partially hydrogenated soybean oil or similar vegetable oil with artificial butter flavor coloring and mixed in. Grandpa was correct. It's way cheaper than real butter.
Grandpa was correct. One more time. My grandpa was correct. Oh my goodness.
Don't eat the butter. Been around a long time, no thanks. Some higher end or specialty theaters or ones marketing real butter do use clarified butter or a butter oil blend, but that's the exception, not the rule. I'm gonna start bringing my own melted butter.
Just bring your own popcorn. Can you microwave this for me? Can you put this in the nuker for me real quick? You don't have the flavored, I like the flavored stuff.
- Yeah. - I like the real butter. - All right, because cancellation occurred late in the day, passengers weren't able to continue the trip, and so they beat the family up, and they all stayed in the airport all night. - All right, so let me ask you guys, let me ask you guys this.
Seriously. Do you think airlines should have chloroform on board? - No. Chloroform?
- Why not? - No, but I-- - Here, smell this napkin, kid, and then we're moving on. But, like, you know how there are adult-only resorts? Like, why not have adult-only flights?
Oh. Special airplanes? No kids allowed, right? No kids allowed.
Why not? Scantily dressed stewardesses? Yeah, whatever. Scantily, oh, like a Hooters?
And don't stop, don't stop there, right? Hooters, you should have an airline. Don't stop there. Like, have, like, weight requirements, too.
Like, those that are too big for the one chair, you have one Airbus only that's double chairs only for them. Put them all on one bus. It sounds a little too specific. Yeah.
You know, why don't we put them all in concentration camps, Greg? Why don't we do that? You're assuming all the bigger people want to all fly to the same place at the same time. That's not my problem.
That's pretty much where they're going. They just want to fly. Put them on a plane. Why don't we just say they can't fly?
There you go. I like that even better. " Big people, watch the kids. We're out of here.
Done. That's it. Don't eat them. Don't eat the kids.
and cover them in butter from the movie theater. Cover them in synthetic oil. That way they slide down better. What are you doing?
Why are you filling that quart up? Oh, I was going to go put it in my car instead of eating it. Oh, you could. Yeah.
A little vegetable oil. I'm sure that'll go over well. Yeah. That would work.
Look, listen. We're going to talk briefly about this, and then we're going to move the hell on. But I'm going to tell you, look, these parents failed. Their kid throws a tantrum, and they don't know how to control it.
He got away with it. Yeah, 100%. Yeah. Absolutely.
You let this kid win over and over and over again and now he knows that he or she knows that I can scream and just get whatever the hell I want. Right. You know? Yeah.
How do you not just make the kid sit down? I don't understand. Alright, you know what? Scratch my original vote.
Chloroform. Thank you, chloroform. Sir, I have something for your child if you would just smell this napkin. Smell this, please.
Don't get it too close to your face. Tell me if this smells like chloroform. Yeah. And we're all taking off.
This smells like grapes, little boy. Check this out. Check this out. Santa loves these.
This show is definitely getting flagged for monetization. Oh, yeah. Yep, we're gonna have to click three boxes already. It's like five dollars, it's gone right there.
All right, only in Florida does a trip to Publix apparently turn into a fight involving a machete and a hatchet. That's not true, it happens in other states. Only at Publix. Yeah, it's because we have Publix, that's the problem.
Two men were arrested after police say a dispute over a woman erupted into a violent confrontation in a Publix parking lot The incident happened August 4th and involved 52-year-old Everett Kitschbaum and 35-year-old James Gay. Everett Kitschbaum. And James Gay. And James Gay.
I'm trying to envision what they would look like. Everett Kitschbaum. I saw them. Wait a second.
I'm gonna tell you right now. Yes? Kitschbaum had the machete. Oh, they didn't specifically...
That's my guess. They didn't show them in the act of the fight. They didn't tell you who had the machete? Uh, I don't know.
Let's read on and see. Okay, hurry up. According to police, Kitschbomb was sitting in his vehicle when Gay approached him and the two began arguing, investigators say, Gay then went back to his vehicle, retrieved a machete. Damn it!
Gay had the machete. I was wrong. In its sheath returned and struck Kitschbomb in the face with it. Oh, sheathed.
Yeah, he didn't, so he maybe smacked him. But this is a horrible idea in the state of Florida. Everyone's carrying a gun. Yeah, take a shot.
Why would you grab a machete? Because that's what he had. Oh my. Maybe he's a landscaper.
So bad. Maybe he is a jungle guide and that's what he keeps in his cards. No, Mr. Gay is just an idiot.
I'm gonna carry this machete. Oh, that could be also. Yeah. That's when things escalated even further, police say.
Kitchbomb responded by swinging his hatchet at Gay. Oh, there was a hatchet too. Yeah, he had the hatchet. There was a hatchet and a machete.
Oh, I would have put it on. I'm sorry, I didn't realize there was a hatchet as well. Your position in that fashion is like almost completely off the screen. We've got about half of your face in the shot.
I know, I'm very comfortable. Alright, well, just screw it. By the time officers arrived, both men were injured. Gay reportedly suffered a deep cut to his pinky finger.
Ah, a pinky. Along with a puncture wound to his lower abdomen, Kitschbaum suffered multiple cuts to his hands and face and told investigators that he lost consciousness after being... That's Phil crying. Because we're not allowed him on the show.
Is that being picked up by the mic? I would assume, I didn't look at the, I was so distracted I didn't look at the thing. I don't think it was being picked up by the mic. I bet it was, I bet it was.
That is. Maybe slightly. If not, what's the time stamp? 37 minutes.
37 minutes. He lost consciousness after being struck in the head. It's gonna be okay, Phil. It'll be fine, Phil, just keep it down over there.
Both men were transported to the hospital. Police identified Gay as the primary aggressor and arrested him that same day on aggravated battery, charged involving a deadly weapon. Kitchbomb was released from the hospital the following day and was also arrested and charged with aggravated battery, causing bodily harm or disability. All right, we get it.
We're moving on. Did you see on that last episode that... Did you see on the... The speech involved a woman.
Kitchbomb is currently fighting. Gay reportedly is dead in the past. It doesn't matter. I will turn your mic off.
I have the ability over here. You turn mine off, you turn him off. That's fine. I'll just run the show by myself.
It'll be just half of my brother's head doing the show. It'll be great. It'll be great. Hey, did you see the episode?
Did you finally watch the episode that you weren't on, where I told you you were on? No, I've not watched it yet. Is that what you did similar? You're really missing out.
Well, I'm sure I will try to. It was amazing. It was amazing. It was amazing.
Yeah. Nobody has said anything about it. It couldn't have been that amazing. Oh, I got messages.
Oh, I mean, there's no comments. I think that there were comments. You just don't know how to read. I can read the comments.
Oh, yeah? They show up on my feed all the time. What are we talking about? Apparently, similar to Phil's appearance on this show, I was on the episode the other day that I was not on.
Oh. Somehow. Also crying in the background? I don't know what I was doing.
I haven't listened yet. Nice. You're going to have to watch. Oh, it's a visual?
Uh-huh. Oh, okay. All right. Cardboard cutout bomber?
It was of epic proportions. Epic Proportions. Epic Proportions. It's not getting good ratings.
It's not being watched much. It's because I spelled Oliver's name wrong. That's why? Yep.
I don't think that's why. That just keeps Oliver from watching it. He told me that I spelled his name wrong. I said it's just a lot easier if you go to the clerk of courts and get that straightened out.
Phonetically, we would really appreciate that. Yeah, he's like, hey, you spelled my name wrong. I was like, well, did I? Get I?
Because you can go change it, right now, and get that squared away. And then it's right. All right, into Cigar News. Thank God.
Tradecraft's Gladius Box Press coming August 22nd. We still don't care. You got anything else? And today, on the Cigar Hustlers podcast, next topic, next topic, next topic, I don't care, next topic.
Let's see, he's excited apparently, he said Rob Blumenthal. Yeah. 5, 52 box breasts. I'm going to FestiCain, it's got a 109 Bellicoso style head.
Yeah, it's great, it's made in the Dominican Republic. It's one of the company's core lines, but it only comes out seasonally or something like that. It's all about the tobacco, yeah, we got it. Yeah, there's a lot of tobacco in it.
65. Yeah, it's a great deal. It's made at the William Mature factory in the Dominican Republic. Oh my god, perfect.
It's a quarterly release. Davidoff's adding boutique selection for selection. All right, here we go. You want to know about this?
Yeah, tell me. Because I don't like this one, we're just gonna go through this one. No, no, come on, come on, come on, come on. Next month, three of Davidoff's company-owned flagship stores each getting a new exclusive cigar as part of the Swiss company's new boutique selection.
There you go. Way to really drive it home that you don't give a shit about any other retailer. Hey, you know what we're gonna do? We're gonna sell specific cigars in our store that you can't get.
Attaboy. There you go. It'll be 30 grand for you to be a white label account, and perfect. Oh, wait a minute, wait a minute.
He is just on one. It's just true, though. Like, that's the dumbest shit I've ever heard in my life. Exclusive cigars.
I'm a wholesaler, but you can only get these cigars at our retail store. If that's not a F you to everybody else who builds and supports that brand, I don't know what is. Geneva, Hong Kong, and Madison Avenue, Greg. Yeah.
It's in Geneva, Hong Kong, and Madison Avenue. Go check it out. Okay. Let's go through this.
The Hong Kong cigars listed as a medium. Uh, the David Rodolf says, "Worked with employees, the stores developed the blend," so the employees were in on it, apparently. I'm sure they were. They go on sale Tuesday, September 1st, Javier Gonzalez, SVP, Head of Global Marketing, apparently it was his idea.
He should be fired. Good lord. Pack it in, Javi. Each blend tells the story of its location, crafted with, location, all they did is change the binder and filler.
I mean, that's a lot of the cigar, to be fair. Well, yeah, but I mean, how does a specific binder and filler for Hong Kong, a specific binder and filler for New York that says it's New York? But they're totally different cigars at that point. I mean, you can change one leaf in the filler and you can change the dynamic of the cigar grass.
That's very true. I mean, the size in itself will change. How do you feel about Spain, Michael? You want to talk about Spain?
Or should I just skip this one? Am I allowed to smoke a cigar there? Nope. Skip it.
Not in private or public places. public places. That's awesome. Oh my God.
They're not doing generational tobacco ban. They're doing a location tobacco ban. Oh, that's cool. Can't smoke in hospitality, terraces, open air events, stadiums, bull rings.
Can't smoke in the bull rings. They can kill the bull, but you can't smoke a cigar while killing the bull. Not at the beach, not at the bus stop, not in the public parks. I will not do it on a train.
I will not do it on a plane. Or in a private smoking lounge. Can't do that either. Can't do it in a private smoking lounge.
It's in the name. Right. What else do you What's the name? It's in a private smoke.
You know what? I got a Davidov exclusive they might be interested in if they want to go pick that up. They have the strictest smoking ban in the European Union. Hmm.
Spain. I think after Iran, we go after Spain. Straighter Hormuz, then we just straighten out Spain. The Minister of Health, Monica Garcia, stated that the government intends to eliminate the current exemption for smokers clubs.
So no smoking clubs either. She's just angry is what you're saying. She's angry. She doesn't like smoke.
She's an angry person. She doesn't like things shaped like phallic things. Yeah, she doesn't, yeah. Have you seen a picture of this lady?
No, I refuse to because she was banning cigars. You're not going to look her up. What's her name? What's her name?
I'm going to look it up. Something Garcia. I don't know, way past her now. Something Garcia.
She's in the Catalan right wing party. Something Garcia. I'm typing that in. Spain lady.
Director of health thing. No. Director of health. Image.
Let me see. Oh, she looks like somebody hot and then he has to eat his words. Mmm, no. No, she's not hot?
Mm-mm. Nope. No, but she's not a dude, at least. No, she's not a dude.
Monica. Monica was her first name. Well, you don't know what her original name was. It could have been Steve.
Oh, could have been. Is that big in Spain? Is that outlawed, too? I don't know.
Stefan. Stefan. Alright. Monica, you're a terrible person.
All right, now it's time for the industry's favorite... Can we do this? You know, skip it! Skip it!
Skip it! I don't want to do it! We got a meeting to go. Oh, we're way past the meeting.
Yeah, we got a meeting in four minutes. We got this under control now. We got eight minutes. Congratulations.
Now it's time for the industry's favorite game: What's the score? Can you predict a cigar score from a half-wheel review before it's revealed? We'll give you clues. You make the guess.
As the review unfolds, the answer gets closer. Or does it? Mm. The closest guest wins the round.
Let's play What's the Score? Mm. Today's Cigar, first up, August 8th, 2026, Patrick Le Greed, the El Mago Limited Edition El Mago Collectible Tin Series Calvary. Mm.
Mikey? Tin Series Calvary. How'd they review this? Well, they smoked it, and then they wrote down notes, and then they typed this thing out.
I think it comes in like a five-pack tin, similar to like that thing that the carbon flour came in, something of like that size. Something like that? Yeah. They only showed pictures of the individual cigar.
Eighty-four. Eighty-eight. Yeah, it's standard for you, it's lame, it's weak, it's weak. All right, it's the El Mago Collectible Tin Series Calvary, country of origin is Nicaragua.
Factory, MGE Cigars, Wrapper, Undisclosed, and then Princey says Corojo. Undisclosed, keep reading. Binder, Nicaraguan, Filler, Dominican Republic and Nicaraguan, Length 5x50, it's pressed, it's $11, and they smoked three. Yeah, it comes in a five pack.
Right. It says five pack. 89. 88.
Clue number one. The matte finish band stands out while the cigar delivers enjoyable creamy cake donut, vanilla, warm Chex Mix? That's a new one. Warm Chex Mix.
That means white people will like it. And pepper notes with a manageable medium minus strength. 86. 90.
Clue number two, burn line and smoke production were generally good, particularly on the first two samples and the Retro Hills offered a flavorful, well-balanced pepper component. 87. 90. Clue number three, one sample had a draw that was tighter than preferred and all three cigars eventually developed combustible.
Question issues requiring at least one relight. Eighty six. Eighty five. Final thought.
The El Mago Collectible 10 Series Calvary is an impressive offering delivering a rich, hearty flavor profile with plenty of sensory stimulation and a good number of transitions. I really like the mellower start that develop into a fuller, more layered, and more complex profile at the end of the first third And keeps the development going until nearly the end of the cigar. As I had to say far too many times, there are some combustion issues which hurt the score and enjoyment. Going forward, I'd cut the head and dry box these for a bit before lighting another one up because the first two thirds deserve a better ending than what the third has to offer.
So does the rating, does he change, does he dry box it and then that's how he finished it and that's how he got a good rating? He suggested that that's what you do, sure. Oh, I'm sorry, are you tired? Yes.
Why? I don't normally have to talk at that point. I had the yawn started before you asked the question. Why are you so tired?
I'm always tired. You don't sleep well? I'm old, I don't sleep well. Why not?
Um, I was, uh, wondering who I was gonna call first this morning. There's a list for you. Yeah, I know, but I start thinking about it as soon as I wake up at three o'clock to pee. 86.
85. 86. On the money. Oh!
America! I win. This is the face of a loser, ladies and gentlemen. And that's, it's still rated higher than a Bosonis and Madra Churchill.
All right, second cigar. Oh, there's two, that's right. Yeah, there's a two for Tuesday. Oh, yeah, that's right.
December 29, 2020, Patrick LaGride cigars. It's the Room 101, Death Bucket 2. Death Bucket. Two.
Two. The second one. Number two. Gregory.
See, you thought, you thought I was gonna go and then you were good, but now there's two. There's two. Yeah. So now you get to go.
Say your 88 so we can move on. It's 88. 77. Wow!
Room 101, Death Bucket 2, Country of Origin, Nicaragua, Factory, Fabrica de Tobaccos, Hoya de Nicaragua, Wrapper, Habano, Binder, Indonesian, Filler, Condega Esteli & Jalapa. Length, 6x52 Toro, sells for $12, and they smoke three. Still 88. Still 77.
The earthy, woody, and peppery Habano profile, The bottle of wine is tied together beautifully with creaminess while the retro hails were a standout for their balanced aroma and smooth pepper. Ninety. Seventy-seven. The draw, burn line, combustion, and smoke production were consistently excellent with construction described as essentially flawless throughout much of the cigar.
Victory. You're gonna go seventy-eight? It's none of your damn business and I thank you for staying out of my personal affairs. Ninety.
Fuck. 82. Nah. Clue number three.
These cigars are terrible. I don't like it. It doesn't taste like check mix. As the creaminess fades, the cigar becomes earthier, grittier, and drier with the wood and pepper developing a sharper edge toward the final third.
Is that Phil's next movie? As the creaminess fades? Yes, as the creaminess fades. Towards the edge.
Towards the edge. 90. -90. -Oh, yeah, no.
Pfff, 80. -It's my final review of 2020, and what a treat of a cigar it is to wrap up the year. The Room 101 Death Bucket 2 checks every box. -Oh, my God.
-Flavor, balance, complexity, flawless construction. -This cigar was terrible. -Overly... -Oh, my God.
-This is the two, not the one, Michael. -Yeah, the one was awesome. The two was... no.
Yeah. -I don't remember. -I can't say that there was a single unenjoyable puff from start to finish With the profile bouncing between very good and outright great rooted in a Habano-forward profile of wood, earth, and pepper. Give me a however.
However it sucked. While trying everything together with creaminess. That's the clue of his next movie. Together with creaminess.
Together with creaminess. There is both stability in the profile from start to finish, but also some subtle transitions that show some range of the tobacco. The only thing that has me a bit perplexed was the huge variance in smoking times, but that is so minor that it's quickly forgotten, and you can find the cigar, buy them, clear a few hours, and enjoy this incredibly crafted smoke. 90.
Shit, man, I'm in trouble. Is it higher than a 90? Palmer, what do you think? I don't know.
What do I think? I'm looking at it. Yeah, just tell me the number. What's the number?
Just tell me the number. I mean, nobody's listening. Oh, man. Do I go 91 or 89?
He started the meeting without us. I'm going to go, I'm going to go 91. You went the right way, 93. Oh, that cigar was like a 40 at best.
No, the two was the good one, one was the bad one. Double, double, double! You have it backwards. No, no, no, no, no.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. No. Yeah, the one was terrible. We hated number one.
Really? Number two, we were like, why didn't he do this before? Oh. So that's probably where I'm screwing up.
Yeah, yeah, you got it backwards. It doesn't matter because this is a face of a double loser. There you go. Double loser.
La-hoo. La-hoo-hoo. Zer-her. Loser.
All right. You have anything else to add there, Mr. Palmer? No, that is all I have.
Triple G, anything else to add? No. Any personal appearances? Any personal appearances?
Any place you're picking up money? Any money? No. No money.
You handing out money? You handing out money? You handing out money. You have money you want to give us?
No. We're going to be on Chi-town soon, right? That's coming up? Next week.
Next week we're going to be on Chi-town. Michael Z. Like and subscribe, wherever you want to listen to the show. Thank you very much.
com where we're going to review this guy, give you our thoughts, the Dunbarton Tabaca Negra, and thank you very much for your time. We appreciate you. We hope that we provided great edumatainment today. Triple G, thank you so much for stepping in again.
You are here now more than Phil. That's it. Wait for my check. You get his next check.
Will you take a post-dated third-party outstater? Sure. Okay. All right.
So, can you write us a check? Can you write us a check? Just go ahead and put your name on it. It's no big deal.
Yeah, put your name on it, and you go cash it, and we'll say thank you. Yeah, you'll be fine. Sound good. All right, everybody.
Thank you so much. All right. We gotta go. Bloop!
