Transcript

OK, you hit the.

Recording.

I'm recording.

Welcome to a Cigar Hustler

podcast episode 487.

I'm Mike Palmer, your engineer

tonight and as your host Mikey.

I have no games tonight, so I'm

making Palmer stay to do the

podcast.

Late Step on Kevitch and then

our very special Co host Brett

Frye from Tobaccology.

Oh yes, slightly.

Slightly tired in the house.

Long drive.

So buddy, how are you, Sir?

Bill, thanks for the bump.

Yeah, I didn't know what he

shared about, you know, like, I

always thought it was just a him

sort of thing.

Yeah, he likes to.

He likes to put it on a Reese's

Peanut Buttercup.

He hits it in the needs.

I thought there's a lot of

rappers in the bathroom.

That would be wild if Zach.

OK.

Right on today's show, we got

sleeper cells everywhere.

Guthrie kidnapping, sheriff

makes an announcement.

That's the last time anyone

makes fun of ROTC.

And then it's cigars.

Perdomo makes an LE, Skip says

We don't have a lot of tobacco,

so I'm only making a craft

marquee cigar.

And then 1910 focuses on Mexico.

And then we have a special

What's the score?

Mikey's made Another Loser

Leaves the Industry challenge

and Mr. Brett Fry.

John Carney already had to leave

the industry because he lost.

Yeah, he no longer.

He's no longer in the industry.

Bentley or Hooten?

Young Bentley or Hooten Young or

anything else he's done.

Lions and giants, it's been been

a good run.

But first.

Though talking smack.

You know, I watched a short clip

on that and was it meant to like

grab you at the end because it

didn't show who lost.

So then like you got to go back

in the.

I had to explain it, they didn't

understand.

Got it.

Carney kept saying, well, did we

both lose?

I don't understand what's going

on.

Sometimes he talks in, you know,

Cousins.

It's cryptic.

Yeah.

Yeah, I.

Just I should tell myself, all

right, but first, Mikey, how do

we get some of that chapter pod

swag and the comments are very

plentiful today.

The comments are very plentiful

today.

definitely going to be 1 made

Pre sale.

Yeah, this is a pre sale on.

It's only being made for the pre

sale and then that's it.

So it could just be 1 of 1

Palmer.

You might get lucky, but I'll

wear it with pride all the time.

Because you have stopped wearing

my BDP.

Because yeah, I worked so much,

started to fade probably.

Can't make another.

One.

So, Mr. Magoomer, this is going

to be on its way.

I saw it, yeah.

Well, that makes me upset.

Well.

Don't don't ever make something

while I'm in the shop and they

Looking at some comments from

today, we got a lot of comments.

Kratos was asking about a.

Are the arms?

Are there sure arms look that

small or is that?

Yeah, they're purposely

tightened.

OK, They're all small.

Yeah, OK, I got you.

Thank you for noticing.

Yeah.

Teemo stuff, Teemo's mediums, we

only have the one side.

All right, epicuring smoke says

new merch idea ACHP branded poop

knife Perfect.

That would be good.

Do you have a?

Poop Knife at home Mr. No, you

know what it is.

I do know what it is 0.

See.

Yes.

How do you know what?

It is.

I can't say that.

OK.

That's fair.

I can't say that.

OK, people in my life, I can't

say that.

Because you respect them?

Yes, after they shared that with

you.

Yes, OK, your poor wife.

Very close.

Anne Marie Pora Pat, 68-O5 says

Palmer won a poop knife for

guessing who sent a bill of

video.

Yes, indeed, you did nail that

one.

You did nail, yeah.

TX Alpha, if the show ended with

you guys hearing your neighbors

stolen pressure washer, that's a

Seinfeld level ending.

By the way, you guys told us

about the half eaten muffins in

one of the last few episodes.

Wasn't tied to a private

conversation.

So yeah, do you remember that?

Yes.

OK.

All right.

And I did just talk to your

children in your wife's car.

Everybody had an electronic item

and everybody was eating both.

Things were a little looser in

the wifey's car.

That's the problem, you know.

That's the problem.

That's the problem, buddy.

I mean, I was even offered a

snack as I spoke to them through

the.

Door Would you like a snack?

Would you like one?

Well I don't have any problems

with the kids eating in the car,

I just don't want them on their

tech.

Call on something.

That's a that's a good point.

Anyone.

Said like a 19 inch TV, hers was

big.

You want to call out you want to

call out my wife go right ahead

bro.

She.

Doesn't listen anymore.

OK, don't worry, I'll give her a

clip.

He.

Doesn't.

Listen so well when we went

every day we lost a.

Couple.

I love you Brittany.

You look very thin today.

Team Money says so.

DHS has technically been shut

down since January 30th.

DHS has a ton of money from the

big beautiful bill, but Congress

needs to either approve the

budget or a resolution for the

money to be released.

They've eat.

They've essentially frozen the

DHS bank account to get things

they want.

It really sucks.

That does suck, especially for T

money.

Last paycheck, they the TSA got

30% of the normal pay.

This time they got nothing.

Yeah, that's and if they don't

show up for work, they get

fired.

But I mean, what's the big deal?

You're not getting, You're not

getting paid anyway.

You get nothing and you get

fired.

There's no loss.

Last two here.

John Yogerlite says they are

both crispy and raw onions on

the arch.

Oh, so I did get a row on you.

That's what those white things

were.

Yeah.

And then I took them off and

then then Kratos 899 said, hey,

did you know that the hyoid bone

is the only bone that isn't

attached to the skeleton?

Yes, it's in your throat.

It is in your throat, kind of.

Sort of, no.

It's in your throat.

It's right by your trachea.

So there you go.

I didn't know that.

Is that how you used to kill

people?

Born it's.

Floating bone.

In the CIA, yes.

The floating bone.

If you want to hear your comment

on the show, if you want, I'm

sorry if you want to hear your

comment on the show, go ahead

and comment below on this on

this episode.

And if it's funny enough, it may

make it or if you're talking

about a hyoid bone hyoid bone,

it might get added as well.

So who knows I'm forgetting

something.

Oh, if you're going, it's a PCA

and you want to speak with us if

you carry Postonia already or if

you're a retailer and you're

interested in carrying the

number 2 cigar in the world. #2

the best.

Hit the calendar link below, set

an appointment with us.

We'd love to talk with you and

when you do that, when you meet

up with the appointment, we're

going to give you a free hat if

you're a media member.

What's that I?

Don't know if I set an

appointment.

You haven't, not.

You better get on it.

You want to know why?

This is awkward.

Because because you're the guy.

Because you are the guy, Sir,

that will come up to me and say,

well, where's my hat?

Oh well bro, where's my hat?

Like, did you set the

appointment?

Like, come on, man, come on.

I'm like no, it doesn't work

that way.

We didn't bring enough for

everyone.

Yeah, only for the people that

made.

Appointments.

Yeah, and one per appointment,

right?

It's always, it's always a small

writing.

You know, at the bottom.

You don't worry.

Amounts, you know.

The sad part is that Palmer

sends an e-mail, We talk about

on the show, we do follow up

calls, we talk on the phone all

the time and you have yet to set

a calendly appointment.

What are we doing?

What are we doing?

I think I blocked.

I think he's sent to spam so

that would explain that one.

Same goes for media members.

If you want to book an

appointment and do an interview

with one of us, book the

appointment.

We're going to give you a hat as

well.

OK, We're ready, Mr. Palmer.

All right, now the news.

FBI Director Kash Patel says the

shooting be investigated was an

act of terrorism at Old Dominion

that happened yesterday.

OK, So what happened?

The guy went into an ROTC class.

He shot the instructor and then

and killed the instructor, and

then he shot two other people

and then three of the ROTC guys

realize he was a threat to

national security.

They subdued the man and he is

no longer a lie.

They stabbed him 22 times. 22 *

1 of them apparently had a knife

and stabbed him 20.

Two times stop resisting.

Stop resisting.

Man, yeah.

You're still breathing.

Stop moving.

After.

All the blood was gone after the

tent stab.

The suspect was identified as

Mohamed Jolah, previously

convicted of providing ISIS

material support.

If he was in and he if he was in

the guard and he'd been

convicted, why was he not in the

Leavenworth?

Right I.

Don't know.

That's a good point.

That's a good point.

I wonder that myself.

But what is the punishment for

just providing material support?

Is that like?

You make, you get copies.

You get stabbed 22 times.

Well, yeah.

Is the.

I can't see you.

It's weird for me.

I'm just staring at this box.

I'm not even here.

So.

So what do you think?

22 More, less, just enough.

I'm the wrong person to ask?

That's why I'm asking you how

many.

Times, would you?

I'm sure that they felt unsafe

up until after the 21st, and I

think it was the proper amount

of force returned.

Makes sense to me.

I mean, you know.

He had a gun, they had a knife.

That seems only fair.

Yeah, where did this happen?

Dominion up in Virginia.

Dominion.

Oh, OK, Yeah.

This guy's not going to get any

trouble, right?

In Florida, we would have gave

him like some flowers and sent

them home.

No, he's.

Being hailed as a hero, he is,

yeah.

OK, good.

Even the school came in.

Yeah, he probably saved a ton of

lives.

There hasn't been any pictures

of him though.

Maybe he doesn't want pictures.

Well, if it's a terrorist, they

normally don't put anybody

involved in a terrorist on the

other side.

How?

Go ahead, Michael.

How old is he?

He's a kid, he's ROTC, so he's a

college student, so in his late

teens, early 20s.

Yes, I'm sure.

You know what's funny is this

goes back to like the the

forever debate about should I be

able to carry a gun on campus?

You know what I mean?

Like why couldn't ROTC member be

able to carry a firearm?

Children in in the state of

Virginia, it's 21 years old.

They don't carry.

Most of them are under 21.

Yeah.

I don't think in ROTC they

qualify.

They qualify.

A weaponry.

Those wooden rifles?

The fake ones.

Yeah, the white ones that they

paint and they spin them around.

Spin them around.

Yes, a ceremony.

Yeah.

OK.

So no other comments from you

yet?

No, you know the show.

No, no, I understand the show.

You know the show?

Yeah.

No, I understand the show.

So.

There's talking.

You have to.

Yeah, you have to speak.

No, I spoke.

I spoke.

There was a proper amount of

force right after 21.

I think they felt he was subdued

and they were no longer in

danger, right?

OK, apparently we need to be on

a little more light hearted.

Well.

We don't have much light hearted

news.

Today News.

Thing what do the next non light

hearted yeah we.

Don't have like a Waffle House

story or anything.

No, let me look.

So tell us about, listen, can

you cover the next shooting for

for Brett?

OK, well, really wants to chime

in on some of these things,

right?

There was an attack on the

largest Jewish synagogue in

North America yesterday.

Also, it's a very busy day

yesterday for terrorists.

Yeah.

It's in Bloomfield Hills, MI and

the reason I pulled the story is

I know where it is.

I mean, I've seen it.

Yeah, Ronnie lived in Michigan.

I think.

Yeah, I think it's the largest

one in North America.

It's huge.

I think Ronnie sent me the video

on it.

Maybe I.

Think a big fire truck.

Yeah, yeah.

Something like that.

So apparently they had a tip it

was going to happen, they just

didn't know when.

OK, so the guy drove his truck

into the front door.

There were children inside, the

car had explosives, but the car

blew up, but the explosive

didn't.

So apparently, apparently he

didn't have it hooked up right

or something.

OK, so he got out, opened fire

on the synagogue, and the armed

security guys took him out.

Subdued him as well.

Yes, unalived him.

Nobody says killed anymore, they

say.

Unalived, I said, Subdued.

I understand that.

I'm just saying the news says

unalived, right?

Yeah, if you say the word kill.

Yeah, so let's keep saying it on

the podcast.

It's a great idea, Yeah.

If you could say like 9 more

times when we can get a strike

that'd be great.

If you say that, that's.

Not one of the questions they.

Asked subdued.

Subdued from breathing.

Subdued.

From breathing.

Stopped his breathing.

Any injuries?

Just the just the the unalive

guy.

Just the one dude.

It's a very bad week for

terrorists.

No kids.

So that worked out well.

No, the kids were all quickly

ushered out the back of the

building to a neighboring home.

Oh, how?

Many kids were in the sun.

I don't have the exact.

Sounds like they had systems.

Are you a man of systems?

Yeah, I am a man of systems.

Are you a man of systems?

Yes.

I think there's a common theme.

Yeah, to today's news.

That's the problem.

That's the problem.

OK, all right.

I like that it was a.

Refueling plane, but we won't

talk about that.

Oh my Lord.

OK.

Anything else to cover on that

buddy?

Because it doesn't sound like

we're getting much here from

from red on any type of what?

Yeah.

So where's the sad?

I can only hear microphones when

I put.

These things up.

What?

What we We won both of those.

Wants to know where the sadness

is.

Yes, yes, we won.

Yeah, we won both of those.

Yeah.

The bad, bad week for well, but.

Unfortunately, in the Virginia

ones, people died.

Yes, Lieutenant Colonel.

We have his name, Lieutenant

Colonel Brandon Shaw.

OK.

Sad.

That sucks.

All right, well, move.

Keep it moving then, because

you're, you know, I think we got

to cater to our guest a little

more when it comes to the news

articles, buddy.

Right now we're not doing so,

no.

When I did this, he this was not

playing.

He wasn't on the map yet.

No, no.

It's all good.

You notified me after I had just

finished.

No, no, Little Debbie's news.

No, no, little.

Debbie's Little Little Debbie's

Level 1 return for bacteria.

How do you feel about that?

How?

Do you feel about that?

I feel about food recalling I.

Think we're having trouble?

It's not coming in.

Yes, it's not coming in.

I can't hear it get.

Off the three shot.

If there was a food recall on

Little Debbie's, would you

return your tasty cakes or

whatever the fuck did you buy?

No.

Yeah, you just eat them.

Right.

Yeah, I would eat them, of

course.

Yeah.

See See Palmer.

Yeah, I figured they coat the

roof of my mouth anyway so it

would stop absorption.

Right.

And prevent that.

And prevent absorption of

anything positive or negative,

OK.

That's good.

Yeah.

Good to know.

OK, next one, Palmer.

All right, Pima County is it?

It must be Pima.

Pima, Pima County.

Shooting at Pima.

Chris Nanos said his agency

believes they know the motive

behind the Nancy Guthrie

kidnapping.

Oh, this is the fucking this.

Is the dumb ass shit.

Slap Dick shit.

Right, he has.

He has announced that he knows.

He's got it.

He's got the motive, OK?

And he's warning that other

residents are not immune.

OK.

Someone else could be kidnapped.

OK, what's?

The reason?

Because I didn't hear any.

Did you hear anything?

About a Randy No, I did not.

So what's that?

This is taking people body

parts.

The quote is we believe we know

why he did this and we believe

that it was targeted, but we

can't.

But we can't.

We're not 100% sure that.

And so it'd be silly to tell

people, yeah, don't worry about

it.

You're not his target.

Don't think for any of that

because it happened to Guthrie

family that you're safe.

But tune into our show tomorrow

and we'll tell you.

Right.

I don't think he's to that

level.

I think that he's, he's this

guy, from what I'm hearing, he's

run on like two brain cells

tops.

He's like the bad.

Yeah.

I mean, I don't even know why

they let him talk.

It's so bad.

What do you think happened?

Maybe they should put a mask on,

cover half his face.

Yeah, people might pay attention

more.

And call him Phil.

What do you think happened to

Guthrie's mom?

No idea.

No idea.

Buried in a home, yeah.

Yeah.

I think by now that's probably

the that's.

What you guys disposed of?

But like, why would they take

her?

I don't.

Nothing.

Maybe there was going to be a

ransom, but in the act of taking

her, something happened and she

had a heart attack or she passed

or they accidentally ran over

her or something.

And like, now what do we do?

I'm.

Still going to stick with my

original.

Which is what?

She's in the elderly sex

trafficking, right?

Oh, you like that?

Yeah, right now.

She's have you seen any emails?

I mean, you're, you travelled in

that circle.

Yeah.

No, no, no, not in that circle.

No.

No.

Are you in?

Are you dark web like the

Squatty Potty guy?

No.

Are you sure?

But but I think that's where she

ended up.

She.

Ended up That's terrible.

Some.

I mean, it's all terrible.

I mean, none of it was good.

Some chic has a fetish for older

women.

Probably.

Maybe they're releasing the

files for this reason only.

Wow, she's on it.

How much would you pay Phil?

Yeah, what's the line?

What's the number for an elderly

woman?

I'm broke so.

But do you have to win on the

Super Bowl to be able to get

Mrs. Guthrie?

Would you give up your poop

knife?

My poop knife?

Yeah, I First of all, Palmer was

the one that brought the whole

poop knife situation.

You can switch your disposable.

This is really good, by the way.

Thank you.

Yeah.

Did you blend it or?

Didn't.

No.

Oscar did, Yeah.

What is that?

This is the Habano.

It's gotta be Habano.

Yeah, it is.

It's a Backology by Oscar.

Yeah.

It is good.

Yeah, it actually kind of

reminds me of Leaf, the original

Leaf by by Aston.

Yeah, Leaf in Island Gym too.

Yeah, I really like this is.

There an AI of island gym coming

out smoking this.

He does AI videos every.

Day.

I just want to know right now, I

feel like The Fifth Element is

going on and you are Bruce

Willis and I'm Chris Tucker.

Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, I'm like, so how do you

feel about that?

You're like, awesome.

Dude.

Thanks so much.

Yes, Brett.

Yeah, Yes, Brett.

I just wanted to know, I mean,

if you're thinking about getting

in the podcasting realm.

Don't do it.

Thanks buddy.

I.

Want to let that one?

Back.

It's been a long day, buddy.

Yeah, I know.

Look, it's a long day for all of

us.

I got a rally.

I get you.

You were in a car.

You.

Slapped you.

I need another bump.

There's only one.

Yeah, I'll.

Be right back.

Yeah, need you to rally.

We need you.

Get it together.

You don't want me talking about

the news topics.

I do know I.

Like, no you don't.

It's kind of the idea of the.

Show yeah, that's the whole

thing you can have a theory,

people will get outraged about

it and I'll just say hey relax,

it's fine you know people will

be on the.

Show it'll.

Be people will have for

different perspectives.

We have a consistent problem.

Yes, Yep, we do.

We do.

That's it.

Thrilled we have a consistent

problem.

Multi pass we.

Got a consistent problem, Lulilo

Dallas multi pass.

All right, what's the next story

there, Mr. Palmer?

Well.

We're moving into cigar news.

Right along, huh?

Unless you have a video.

You know what I have a video

for?

You.

Oh, he's in one week.

He has had two videos.

No, no, this is the second one.

No, here.

Yeah, that's true.

And here's the thing.

Wait, you provided one?

I provided one.

What videos did he do?

He did one on Monday I think.

Oh, did he?

Or whatever day that was.

Here's.

The thing, buddy, you called me

out on this and now I'm going to

respond.

Oh.

I can't wait to see this video.

It's amazing, all right?

It's not.

Going to be any good?

It's not one of you in Preston,

is it, Sir?

It's.

One of me we're.

Only allowed to talk about

Preston on Tuesdays.

On Tuesdays.

Sorry, I don't know.

What day it is anymore?

Well, if you want to watch it,

OK, I don't know how this audio

is going to work.

Does it have music?

Yeah.

You have to listen to it because

it's hilarious.

Is it alright?

Here's what I want you to do.

You know what?

You don't have to see it,

Palmer.

I want you to play it on your

phone and play it loud enough so

we can all hear it.

It's a news thing.

And then we'll pop it up.

Did it?

Did it, did it?

Mike Palmer reporting.

The US state government has come

under fire after its customer

service system, which claimed to

be offering Spanish language,

was found to actually be

speaking English with an accent.

Told Licensing in Washington

state is responsible for vehicle

registrations and issuing

drivers licenses.

It fields thousands of calls

every day in order to streamline

customer queries.

It uses an AI driven

self-service system asking

callers to select the language

they would like to converse in.

But if you want to speak in

Spanish, you'd probably be

disappointed what you've heard.

Customers were met with an AI

program speaking English with a

Spanish.

Accent.

Wow.

Please.

Please press Uno.

Oh wow.

Oh man.

So are you that worried about AI

taking our jobs or what?

Oh, that it's humor.

It's good humor though.

Dude incredible and like at the

end it said some people said

like it was very disrespectful

but hilarious.

The umbrella of comedy?

Yes.

Yes.

I think.

It was prompted for that.

Yeah, so they obviously told AI,

hey, you know, speak with the

Spanish accent, Yeah.

If they choose this.

Yeah, so somebody, but you like

the problem.

Here's the thing with AI is like

you have to, you have to be

extremely specific what you want

it to do, right?

So when you just say, hey, speak

with a Spanish accent, it's like

no problem.

Like I'll be like I got got you

they.

Said, you know, speak Spanish.

Right.

Thank you for calling.

Hello, thank you for calling.

No, that's not Spanish.

No, no, they're Chinese.

They.

That's not even well do.

You think anybody shared that

with their friends and told them

to call?

0100.

Yeah, I mean you had.

To right, you had to immediately

be like, hey, you need, you need

to call listen to this, you got

to check this out.

Hey, there's a strange amount of

traffic going on to our FTL or

our Spanish.

Language portion of our.

So.

So strange.

Pressing 2.

There's a lot going on here.

You don't, people.

Are calling in today.

What's happening here?

And I love that it was covered

by, like, Australia News.

And then it made its way back to

us in Florida, which is even

better for me because I'm like,

you're not going to believe what

the Americans are doing, right?

Pretty epic.

So there's your video, Mr.

Palmer.

Thank you.

Very much pretty good that.

Was.

Good.

OK.

That's probably the best one

he's ever done, no?

I'm not going to comment on that

because I feel his will be

repercussions for that comment.

It's only they're only funny to

him.

I saw one about a Denali that I

almost popped up.

Yeah, here it comes.

Yeah.

And you know what?

I should have saved it because

it was pretty funny.

The guy's like, I don't attach a

trailer to my Denali, and we

could scratch the coat painting

off the the ball or whatever.

Yeah, the hitch.

I'm like, Oh my God.

Yeah, see that one wouldn't have

been.

Fun it was, it was pretty good.

You see me hook up trailers all

the time, right?

I told.

I told stuff.

I told stuff on my truck I do

construction.

Yeah, I'm, I do.

Construction.

Wow, I do.

Construction.

Brett, don't feed into her.

Yes, I was just seeing.

I get trouble for being silent.

I get in trouble for.

Here's what I'm going to tell

you.

Screw him.

Do it do you don't have to worry

about him.

It was no big deal.

We have technically replaced him

with this new piece of

equipment.

Yeah, yeah, he, he, he got

replaced by a 12 inch box.

Yeah.

But yeah, they're always like,

oh, press this button, Don't

stay on this screen too long, Do

this.

Yeah, but.

We don't have to tell the

machine that though.

Yeah, it just doesn't.

The machine doesn't do that.

You guys said it was horrible

the first time you did it.

We used it the other day when

you weren't.

Here and it was great.

It worked great, no problems.

Whatever it learns, we.

Still missed you?

Yeah, it probably does it with a

Spanish press.

Button thing or something.

We still, we still missed you OK

there.

It can't thank you.

It can't say quid Dow.

You know what I mean?

I can't, you know, it's.

Not racist.

Yeah, it's not racist.

It doesn't call Arabic people

towels.

Yeah, You know, it doesn't do

all those evil things that

people.

There's no hard R in It's hard.

At all.

Yeah, I.

Don't use the hard R yeah.

I almost slipped into it the

other day.

Yeah, you wouldn't all.

Right.

Perdomo's got a new cigar that's

coming out.

But unlike most of Perdomo's

cigars, it's a limited

production.

It's a father and son

collaboration.

Nick Pernomo junior created the

Shade growed blend and wait.

Hold on.

Nick Perdomo Junior and Nick

Perdomo the third.

How many of them are there?

7.

Is there only three?

All right, so Nick Pernomo

Junior created the shade grown

blend.

Nick Perdomo the third created

the Maduro blend.

Both work together on a

Connecticut blend that uses a

hybrid tobacco, uses a Habano

cross with a Cameroon hybrid

seed for the binder and core of

the blends.

Vintage tobacco filler comes

from Kondaga, Estele and Halapa

and are age from 2011 to 2016.

So there's there's three wrapper

options.

There's a shade grown, a Maduro

and a Connecticut. 2011 to 2016.

Yes, that's the age of the of

the filler tobacco.

OK.

So they've had it for an

additional 10 years on top of

that.

Yeah, takes a long time.

Long time OK, they lost it and

then they had to find it again.

Oh, oh, it's lost and pound.

Lost and pound.

OK.

Very.

It's 6 by 48 by 6.

What it says single vitola.

Then it says 6 by 48, six by 60,

and 6 by 52.

So I guess that's the three

different cigars.

Each one is a single vitola.

That doesn't even make any

sense.

No, there's three different

cigars.

Oh, OK, there's a.

Shade grown, a Maduro and a

Connecticut.

It didn't disclose that.

Which you think is which?

Yeah, which is what?

Maduro's probably the 60.

Well, let's see it goes.

If it goes in the same order,

the Maduro is the 60, the

Connecticut is the 52, and the

shade grown is the 40.

Their last one they did with

that that the third did was the

top 30 retailers or something

like that got them.

Oh, is that how that?

Works.

Yeah, that's how they did it,

yeah.

So what was it like for you?

You liked it?

I I was not top 30 if you wanted

no, you're not top 30.

No, no, no.

You were 31.

Yeah, something like that.

Yeah, just about.

Maybe just slightly below?

Yeah 31 1/2.

Yeah, 30. 131 1/2 What was so

close?

Did you try it?

No, no.

Do you carry Perdomo?

No, no, I have not bought in a

while.

You're not bought in a while.

Yeah, OK.

Used to carried a lot.

Yeah, but not anymore.

No, not in a while.

OK, there's no reasoning or

anything but.

Just happens.

Just happens.

No, I mean it just happens.

Yeah, the Habana sold well.

The Habana Barrel aged, Yeah,

sold well at the shop.

Things they won't let you just

buy that one.

Correct.

So you didn't want to give them

the whole?

Merchandise.

He's big on merchandising, yeah.

This is the one brand.

Big on merchandising you.

Hear the most complaints about

this brand, what I'm out about.

As far as the.

Requirements, the requirements

only you know the most shops are

like well only this sell but

they won't let me just buy this

and then one guy show they go

see all these on the floor.

I had to buy those to get this.

One, I mean, I could argue

either aspects of that

realistically because like you

want to have a decent amount of

facings so that people can see

it.

You know, it's not like you can

count on every single retailer

to actually do their job and

direct people in the humidor

towards cigars.

That's the problem.

So if retailer did a better job,

then you wouldn't need to have

the facings, right?

But that's not the case.

Yeah.

I mean it's, it's real estate,

you know how it goes.

You know, you'd like to

everybody that manufacturers

would like to have as much as

they produce, right?

And it's hard.

That's the dichotomy of what do

you do right as you know.

I I yeah, I know.

I got way too much post on you.

Yeah, way too much.

Wait, you got to cut back?

We have requirements, we're very

so.

Much post on you well, listen, I

I expect a specific amount

because you know retailers such

as yourself don't do a good job

introducing it to.

Customers, I figure you and you

and the boy will soon put one

out and open a bar together.

You and the boy.

Oh, yeah, That's.

Yeah, that's what I'm doing.

I got that.

I got that.

Took me a second.

Yeah.

We're going to go online.

I'm going to work with just

close friends.

We're going to do some collabs.

That's going to be great.

That'll be great.

I'm going to make one called

the.

It's a backology.

Oh, something.

Let me know.

By Oscar the Hustler.

Yeah.

By Oscar the the the, the to

back Hustler.

Intense.

No perfect it's.

Going to be good.

Perfect.

It's going to be good.

People can find out your name's

not really Stepan Kevich.

I'm going to cut you in.

Thank you.

I appreciate that.

Yeah, grateful.

You know, but payment may be a

little slow.

I don't.

I don't know what he's talking

about.

What?

That means me neither, me

neither.

I have no idea, but you know.

All right, once against how much

is the lovely cigar collection?

It's per cigar.

They're all three of the same.

They're all apparently they're

all three of the same price.

Every vitola is the same price.

Yes, the three Vitola's, they're

all the same price.

It sounds like a really bad

article.

It's not Well put.

Together 16.

Well, I'm not allowed to just

read articles.

Anybody like that?

That's true. 1616 sounds. 16

sounds.

Per Demolish.

I'm gonna, I'm actually gonna go

lower.

I'm gonna go 14.

Yeah, I'd probably take the over

on 14, the under on 16, yes.

I'm gonna go 15.

He.

Went the right way.

Yeah.

Price is right, Baby I.

Didn't know he was playing.

It's not.

Fair.

Oh, whatever.

I thought it was just me and

Brett.

So yeah, I think that this year,

this particular PCA, you're

gonna see a lot more lower

priced cigars.

You think we're done with the

$100 cigars?

I think, I think that ship has

sailed.

Something about them not selling

well, you know, it's crazy.

That DHS not getting paid, Yeah,

yeah.

That whole thing, DHS not

getting paid, it's kind of a big

one.

Some airports.

Are saying to leave 5 hours

before your flight.

How how hard would you work if

you weren't getting paid?

Right?

Exactly.

Well, let's only entrepreneurs

are that stupid, yeah?

Yeah, yeah, exactly, exactly.

Yeah.

Why am I doing this?

Did you open another line?

Nah, like.

Outwork everybody.

That's right, that's right,

that's right.

Outwork everybody.

You only don't get paid unless

you're working for somebody

else.

Then screw that.

Yeah, we're just trying to get

Dum Dums now for us every time

we does a show.

Yeah.

Well, I was just upstairs.

You're doing all right.

I'm just playing boys.

I'm just playing boys.

These are great.

Mike, start the car.

It comes in a 50 count chest

made in Pardomo's own box

factory and the preview event is

in May at Two Guys Cigars.

Two guys, and.

Then it's shipping nationwide

fourth quarter of 2026.

I'll say this though there his

his box factory is pretty cool

at the factory, he's got a blind

guy that worked for him.

And we went there and Bob and I

were very curious.

So the whole tour moved through

and he was there and we just

stood in the door and watched

him for a while because it was

fascinating to me.

And it's like you knew we were

there.

He.

He he did this.

And I was like, oh man, that's

scary.

That's scary stuff.

He's not really blind.

That's good.

That's for the record.

I'm just telling you what we

were told.

He's blind, just telling you

what we're told.

But he's got a cool box.

Fan I heard that the box room is

actually the dressing room for

the other ladies.

That's where that came from.

Oh, you don't worry about him.

He's blind.

We saw that's how they pay him.

Yeah, that's fine.

He can't.

And then that was when he

instantly started doing this.

We saw this old Cuban box that

was there because he's got a

room at the tour that's got a

bunch of boxing examples of

boxes, unique boxes, and it's a

box that has kind of a a rest in

the center of it.

And when you lift it up, it

loads a cigar from each side of

the box.

And we had comments on and

picked it up and we Bob and I

were looking at it and the

toward moved on and they

immediately like Brett bubble,

come on, put that back.

Now you know me.

But Needless to say, they made

US1 really.

So when we when we got back,

they had sent sent 1 and it was

the exact same thing where it's

got it.

You just pull it up and it feeds

from this side and you pull it

up, it feeds from the next side.

It's a really cool little box

that they so they have.

Yeah, it was really neat.

So it's a cool, it's a cool

factory.

Where is it?

Huh?

Is it the it's at the it's the

house.

No, you had the house, not at

the shop.

No, it's that cool.

It's that cool we brought.

It all, it's pretty cool, man.

It's pretty cool.

I like it.

So can you put other cigars in

there too or no?

Yeah, if it's up to a 60, Yeah,

Yeah, which is hard to humidify.

There's a spot for a movie to

pack, but it's not like sealed,

right?

It's more of like a desk if you

know people are coming over.

Right, you bust it.

Out.

Bust it out there.

That kind of thing.

Would you like cigar Fancy?

Here I am.

Better than most.

Boxes.

I am a bread of the backology,

OK?

All right, Roma craft to back

begins shipping next week.

The Craft.

Marquette L Marinaro.

Marinaro.

Marino What's Carlos?

'S marine aero.

Marine.

Aero.

It's the leather one, right?

No, that's the craft.

He's a he.

Been the same Marquette in

there.

I did say Marquette.

Oh, OK.

Craft Marquette.

El Marino.

Yeah.

So I believe that there was some

issues with production on boxes

for the craft.

So that was held back.

I gotcha.

I can't confirm or deny.

That yeah, I I hadn't heard

exacts.

I think that that was the case.

There was some kind of hold up

in production on the box.

OK, so instead they went forward

with the Marquette the next.

Marquette.

Yeah.

Next Marquette.

Maria Narrow.

It's a 4 3/4 by 54 box press

Gran robusto.

It's a Mexican.

Sandra's rapper Binder is OMA

Tempe.

First time Robocraft has used

this tobacco.

Yes, Oma Teva is a cool place.

Yeah.

Have you been?

Yeah.

What was the coolest?

Part.

There's a blind guy there too.

There's a blind guy there.

Anyway, see, I'm done.

Blind guy there, me shutting

down now.

That means we won if you shut.

Down.

We won and we win for the

record, all right?

We're not even recording really.

That was just all.

We're just.

Doing yeah, yeah.

All right, let's start now.

Let's start now.

Yeah, there's been a whole gag.

They're so mean.

Yes, they sound nice, but

they're not very nice.

We sound nice.

OK.

Thanks so much.

Go ahead with the marinara

buddy.

What else you.

Got all right, Thousand bundles,

10 cigars per bundle.

How much is this little cigar?

How much is it?

Boots is or Phil is playing.

No, I'm not.

Stop giving any.

Signals wrong there What?

Are you doing wow you?

Want me to play?

I'm sure these two already know

the price if they're getting.

That no, you won't.

Now you gotta go first.

All right, 10 bucks.

What do you think?

10 bucks what we pay or oh

retail.

Retail.

I'm going to say 14 1/2. 14 1/2.

That's 50, Michael.

Thank you.

I'm going to say 18 bucks.

You went the wrong way.

Great 13, yes.

I've got to go.

I purposely aimed high on that

one.

So it's a brown paper bundle

with ribbon instead of

traditional bands.

It was inspired by Skip Martin's

U.S.

Navy service, Ernest Hemingway,

The Old Man in the Sea, and it's

a tribute to Carlos Sanchez, a

respected tobacco figure, and

Essa Lee, who provided Oma Tempe

binder.

Yeah, that's what's funny to me,

Palmer, is you're telling me

this story and you think that

it's Carlos?

I thought that was the Carlos.

No, it is De Carlos, but it's

not the local Carlos.

Well, yeah, I just read that now

I only read the first.

Different last letter, yeah.

Carlos Sanchez.

Is there's more than one Carlos

in Nicaragua?

We have a Carlos here who was

just at the factory.

Carlos Sanchez is distinctly

different from any other Carlos

that I have met.

I would assume yes.

I can assure you.

Carlos could be respected

tobacco figure necessarily, too.

You don't.

Know no, that's not true.

He doesn't live there.

Well, it doesn't mean he's not

respected.

Well, no.

Carlos is a big deal, and his

son's pretty.

Cool.

I never met him.

Really.

Yeah.

He was like one of the first

guys to help Skip kind of get

going.

And, you know, they would drink

heavily together.

They would drink heavily

together.

I'm.

Going to presume rum.

So to to my knowledge, I'll be

corrected on that.

I got we got a text earlier

letting us know how much idiots

we are on this podcast.

You know how?

Our news Just.

Sucks.

He's like he covers.

He didn't say it like that.

He said that's the way I took

it.

That's the way I don't take it

like that.

See, you can't.

That's the problem is you can't

take Skip's text like that, he

said.

Something like the Hell's this

coming?

From now, he said.

He said the picture from when we

were at his house eating.

He cooked for Bob and I He sent

a picture.

Yeah.

Did he did you get the the

Fritos thing?

Fritos chili thing.

It was chili, but it wasn't

Fritos chili.

Oh, he.

Had to put in a Fritos bag.

The Walking Taco.

Oh yeah.

That's what we had.

It's called a walking Taco.

Yeah.

Where'd it go?

Walking Jelly.

What?

Why is it called no you eat it

when you can walk in the Fritos?

Bag.

Got it, he says.

I watch things like Startalk and

discover amazing things about

our physical universe.

I listen to history of News

podcasts and learn things about

the world I live in and what is

going on in the news.

ACHP is kind of the opposite of

that.

And you know, Palmer took that

to heart.

I don't like we kind of are the

opposite of that.

Certainly been.

I don't need him to tell me, I

know that.

Palmer There's an ask for every

seat, right?

That's right, yeah.

Any of those, we are

entertainment.

That's right, baby you.

Know those other shows?

The number.

One podcast.

So so I went on this.

So we were on this Fritos quest

in Esta Lee, me and Danny

Vasquez.

OK, so I'm a date.

I'm a date This a little bit,

right?

And this is when the Ford

Explorer that they had that was

in Esta Lee, probably one of

one, right?

We were in this car together on

this quest, checking, you know,

the five gas stations that are

there and any other type of

convenience store for the for

Fritos.

And as we're driving, Danny in

his infinite wisdom does not see

a median.

Now, the medians in Esther Lee

are not like the medians in the

US.

They're like these hard squares,

very tall.

And he went for doom for doom

for doom.

And I was like, Oh my God.

And he just kind of froze

holding the steering wheel like

this.

No, don't freeze.

And I'm like, look man, it's.

Going to hurt.

Look, no, I said look, if it

looks OK, I'm not saying a damn

thing, bro.

I won't, you know, like at that

point Danny should have known

who The Who I was.

And like, man, this guy's, he's

got me like, you know, like hey,

as long as everything checks

out, I'm not saying anything, I

won't throw you under the bus.

You can report yourself and

that's it, you know?

So we eventually found the

Fritos.

I know that's what everybody

wants to know.

It took like 3 hours to find the

Fritos and we almost destroyed

an explorer in the process.

If it was a Denali it would have

made it.

Yeah, Denali, definitely.

Yeah, thank you.

But that's not really a worker

workers truck.

I I get it, Yeah.

It's like, yeah, like a shove

truck, right?

Yeah, you know what I mean.

Yeah, not so much.

Guys who are construction boots

that are clean.

You're right.

Exactly.

You know what I mean?

Yeah.

Probably unlaced.

Yeah.

Yeah, unlaced.

Yeah, 100% Yeah.

He doesn't have boots that have

laces.

Yeah, he's got, he's got

American boots.

Yeah, you.

Know what I mean?

America.

Yep.

Yep, that's him.

Yeah, don't finish that soon.

Yeah, I'll have to check the

box.

Yeah, I'm.

I'm not.

Subdue.

Yeah.

Do you have a?

Is it?

That's a car ride that he

suggested.

You should do a podcast.

What's that?

Danny originally took credit for

the podcast saying he suggested

it to you.

Was that the car ride or was

that was that one in America

where you like picked you up in

that airport at the airport or

something?

Yeah, you know what, dude?

I honestly don't recall that

conversation.

Yeah, he was terrified.

Well, we can say that it was in

the States.

I guess.

I don't know, you know.

Did you spend the day with him?

One time he picked you up at the

airport.

You guys went to a a couple of

shops or.

Something he did pick me up from

the airport in Texas, I think.

Texas, yeah.

Maybe it was in Texas.

That's where I lived.

Yeah, and I mean, I had a good

time with him.

That's when it all went

sideways.

But hey, here we are.

Here we are.

Here we are.

You know what I'm saying?

Yeah, on a different voyage.

Oh boy.

Thank you.

Thank you.

We're welcome to the show, bro.

Thank.

You.

Guys, we're almost finished.

So we're excited.

Is anyone excited for this

cigar?

Of course.

Perfect.

How could you not be excited?

I thought we'd finish this story

here.

We kind of went off the left

field.

Trying to bring it back.

No.

Yeah, trying to bring it, bring

the show back around.

Dude, I'm excited by anything

comes out of the Nika Swinger

factory.

Yeah, I'm excited about this,

you know?

They're next level for sure.

Can you ever see yourself doing

like a Marquette line like he's

doing?

Because now he's, he's bringing

out more and more every year,

right?

It's consistent now.

A Mac Cat line, Yeah.

No.

No, probably not.

No.

I mean, you know, I'm trying to

develop more core stuff, right?

I don't think I'm at that level.

Like he'll always give me a hard

time that I don't sell enough

core.

So that's always a main focal

point.

I mean, just brand recognition

and development is the is what

I'm trying to do.

And, you know, I'm trying to get

Brett to buy more and one day at

a time, one day at a time.

Terms are crazier.

Terms are crazier.

Ridiculous.

OK.

What else you got there, Mr. P?

The Casa 1910 announces A

portfolio makeover focusing on

Mexican cigars for 2026.

OK.

Mexican soda.

So what does that mean?

Like San Andreas.

Casa 1910 is shifting into its

strategy to fully emphasized

cigars made in Mexico.

Mexican made cigars.

I thought they were selling 2

Mexicans.

They had fun with Edgar Hoyle.

Highlighting the heritage of the

San.

Andreas and he convinced them to

come.

So the core lines are the Chu,

chulo, parado.

OK.

The Tierra Blanco and getting

updated updated packaging and

will now share the same 3

battolas, a Corona Robusto, and

a Toro extra.

They're making six new skews

cross the core lines for a 6 by

60 added to the Mexigars bundle

line.

They call them the Mexigars.

Oh boy.

Mexigars, yes, it could be a

good opportunity.

Price points there if the

competition's low, you know what

I mean?

It has been I.

Didn't know they were making

cigars in Mexico.

I mean go Casa turret does

right?

Yeah, Well, he's the guy though.

Yeah, You know what I mean?

Like he grows the the tobacco so

that that makes sense.

Yeah.

So they're obviously featuring

Mexican San Andreas wrappers,

tobacco aged five years and

offered in the same 3 standard

sizes.

You have price points.

No, they are not announcing the

prices yet.

To be determined.

To be determined.

OK.

And they're discontinuing the

cavalry and the Soladero lines

because those are not made in

Mexico.

So only Mexican?

Only cigars made in Mexico.

I mean.

Mexigars.

This is always interesting man,

because.

Give it a shot.

What's that?

You have to give it a shot,

right?

Yeah.

And like, OK.

So why did they discontinue it?

Was there issues with the

factory?

Was there issues with

production?

Was there issues with timing?

Was there issues with cost?

Or was it none of that?

They just wanted to have a

different vision.

I mean, like, I mean, for me,

I've worked at the same factory,

right?

Got a good relationship with

those guys and that's nice,

right?

I don't feel the need to now.

I can dabble a little bit with

some of my other friends every

once in a while and do something

else.

But it's nice to be established,

you know what I mean?

I think the there's a it's nice

to have the foundation like

that.

Yeah, yeah.

But, and you also have a,

obviously I'm biased, but you

have a great foundation.

I'm on board with Nika Sweeney,

right?

I mean, I, I agree that I think

there's vision and true passion

there, you know, and concern for

people.

And I think, you know, the more

you go and you take trips,

that's important, right?

And Skip takes care of his

people.

Right, 100%.

That, you know, I don't know if

it's a industry wide thing that

we're seeing, but maybe with

sales or people are being forced

to make moves such as this, you

know, I don't know if it's that

macro, right, you know.

Maybe tariff related?

I don't know.

That could be it.

That's what I mean.

I don't.

I don't know if that's that's

what motivates something like

this or what.

What's that, Palmer?

Said that could be it for

Mexico.

The tariffs are lower there,

yeah.

I don't know why they are in

cigars, but a lot of my Chinese

customers that I was.

Making it could have started

when we were extremely fearful

of the the tariffs and and that

got pushed right.

Yeah, now, now it's being now

it's all being challenged and

it's like a blanketing 15 points

across the.

Board 1010 now I believe. 10.

Ten, Yeah.

We know, Fact Check.

It's 10.

You think I just know when the

bill comes in, I'm like, oh

shit, we got to raise our

prices.

You know, what are we going to

say, Phil?

Maybe I'm going to change my

beginning statement of this

whole show.

Maybe that's where Samantha

Gumthree went.

Oh, to make.

Yeah, maybe she's a roller now.

Oh, she's making cigars.

For 1910, yeah.

Oh Good, Hope you got a nasty

letter for.

Somebody from 1910 you're.

Pretty mean.

I'm sorry, nobody knows where

she is.

We're just speculating here.

Yeah, it's all speculation.

OK, it's.

Better than the first thing I

talked about.

Wow.

Elderly sex.

Trap value he provides on this

show.

Yes, it's tremendously.

Yeah, we got to love it.

We can't get him not to talk.

I can't believe they let him fly

still, you know what I mean?

He's not on.

Do not play a list.

We love when I fly.

Who's they?

Because he goes southwest and

buys two seats.

I love you, buddy.

I know.

Or he was so excited that you're

coming.

Too.

He's texting me I miss you.

I miss you too buddy as.

Soon, as I said, Brett Frye

comes like like I think he may

have cancelled this.

Happy to be at work because I

thought when I sent the text,

I'm like, hey, we're going to

we're going to podcast with

Brett in the evening.

I thought he'd just say, oh, I

got to work or whatever.

He's like, I'll be there.

You probably call if.

He cancelled, I pushed.

It I pushed.

It yeah, he's like, hey, can't

oh man, my equipment's down.

Oh, I can't play.

Very sorry.

My wicked wink.

It won't work.

Yeah.

You're not going to believe

this. 49 guys broke my stuff.

I can't plug in the speaker. 49

guys broke my stuff.

To call back Michael.

Together, thank you all.

Right now, it's time for the

industry's favorite game.

What's the score all right?

Today's Cigar, April 14th, 2011,

reviewed by Steve Val.

No.

No, that's that mystery guy

whose name pops up every once in

a while. 2024. 2011 April 14th,

2011 Steve Val cigars.

It's a Cuban cigar.

Oh God.

It is a Dunhill Cabinetta.

OK.

Who's going first?

Phil, I think that you should go

first.

I will.

I'll position myself in the

weird middle spot, and then you

can go last, OK, since you're

our guest.

All right.

All right, I will go 85.

I don't nothing about the cigar.

88. 1011.

Yeah, Steve Val, no idea.

They were on their way out.

Dunhill Cuban, Take your time.

88.

OK, 88.

All right, the cigar is a

Dunhill Cabineta.

It is from Cuba.

The factory is Rio Fabrica de

Tobacco's Romeo and Julieta.

It's a Cuban wrapper, Cuban

binder, Cuban filler.

It's a 4 7/8 by 50 robusto.

The price is $150.00.

American.

Box of 25 cost you at auction

5000 to $8000.

This was in 2011, buddy.

Yes, and the cigar was

originally released in 1984.

Oh boy.

Was it made for something?

Oh, it doesn't say.

It doesn't say.

Did it say how many smoked in

there?

No.

No, OK, no this is way I can do

that as 11 that's fair.

Well, is there going?

To.

I don't know.

There was an expensive cigar

that I smoked not too long ago

that we talked about and it was.

2011 they didn't have money.

Yet, oh, they were broken.

They were broken.

Charlie did not have the velvet

jumpsuits anywhere.

I'm going to go down to 82.

I'm going to torpedo on this

thing at 67.

Oh, this is where it gets

interesting.

No, there's no way.

No, Maybe.

You just have to be close.

You don't have to have the.

Exact.

Yeah, I understand.

He used to listen.

I don't know.

He used to listen.

Wow, not anymore.

The studio audience thought that

was very funny.

Yeah.

Does anybody admit it?

We have cigar companies that

listen to this and they all play

in the office.

Yes, yeah, you could listen to

84.

Yeah, you could play it in the

shop. 84. 80.

Four, yeah, you could play it if

you wanted to play it.

No, it'd be no big.

Deal.

It's on YouTube.

Yeah, we need to use.

We're monetized now I.

Haven't paid my Internet bill

yet.

Well, you can just steal your

Internet play.

It on your phone?

No, their Wi-Fi could.

With the old cash is that.

Everybody.

Yep, that's everybody.

All right, clue #1 the cigar

looks remarkable for its age,

featuring a buttery milk

chocolate wrapper and delivering

rich pre light aromas of cedar,

barnyard, floral sweetness and

aged tobacco sounds.

Horrific.

Phil.

Oh, you want to go just directly

on me?

What you're saying the score?

I mean, I like when it's three

because then it shows

everybody's we can.

Do the three when I'm doing the

clue.

Yeah, you.

Stay on your side of the table,

bomber.

That's why he's executive

producer.

You're not.

You're not engineer, buddy.

You're executive.

You're supposed to be over here.

This might be my.

New scene Good.

Your watch went on perfect.

You couldn't have an episode

without it.

Tell your wife you're busy.

Yeah, that's one of my workers.

Tell them you're busy. 82 is.

It the one that broke the water

line today in the building.

Broke the water line you.

Didn't hear about that.

Didn't.

Hear about that?

No.

Oh, maybe we shouldn't have said

anything.

Oh boy.

Don't fire.

Don't.

Fire him I like.

Him, I'm sticking low here.

You're not going to fool me with

this.

Floral notes pre light Barriana,

67.

Wow, this was an 11 and you said

82, right?

81 I'm.

Going to go 82.

All right, clue #2 Throughout

the smoke, it shows excellent

complexity and balance,

transitioning from smooth aged

tobacco and Cuban style

sweetness to notes of coffee,

leather, nuts, and dark

chocolate while staying

incredibly smooth and flavorful.

How's that torpedo coming up?

How's that torpedo?

How's that torpedo, Iran?

How's that torpedo?

That messy over here.

There's nobody to report back

this.

Cigar is really good.

Thank you.

It is, man.

Thank you, Oscar.

That's the second clue, yes.

OK, so we have the third doozy

coming up you.

Still have the third clue?

Yeah, and and the bottom.

Line, I know this is you're not

used to the game.

I get it, it's new.

It's new 81. 74.

He's engine.

He's Canada right now.

Coming back up. 84 Here it

comes.

All right, third clue.

Here it is ready.

The rapper shows some visible

veins and lungs along the length

of the cigar, which slightly

affect the otherwise refined

appearance.

OK, that's it.

That's it, That's all you got.

Holy shit.

Palmer's making this one

difficult.

Come on, Phil.

Phil wants to win so bad in

front of somebody else.

I don't know. 83 I.

Don't know you can't sense that.

83.

OK, you don't have to.

Yell.

It's like the phone.

I can't even hear myself,

Palmer.

I can't hear you.

I know. 79 myself either can I

talk?

No, no go.

Man 79.

The answer is either 80 or 83,

right?

So you said what, 81 or 82?

No.

I'm 83.

Oh, you're 83?

Yeah, I went up.

You went 78. 79 I don't.

Know.

We got one more afterwards. 8080

all right.

This doesn't have a final

thought.

It's called the bottom line.

The.

This is a true bucket list

cigar.

This is a cigar that I will

think about for many years to

come.

This marks.

Each other.

Dunhill we have reviewed and

been blown away by.

People talk all the time about

Davidoff 1490 twos and Dunhill

selections.

Someone for 67?

You really want to experience a

cigar that will knock your socks

off.

You look for a Dunhill from

1980s and you will be blown

away.

There's a reason why Steve's no

longer half will.

I know, I know, we're talking

about spending hundreds of

dollars on a single cigar, but

this experience will last a

lifetime, and that, to me, is

worth it.

I put the phone down Michael so

he can't cheat and look.

Good. 93. 96, yeah.

That's where I was gonna go with

his writing.

I got over under you.

The problem is if they take the

under, it's only A2 under

because of his SO.

I don't want you thinking too

much about this because you're

going.

What you're doing is you're

giving Phil ideas to actually

figure out how to play the game,

and he has no idea.

Understood.

This game whatsoever he.

Just yells out numbers.

Normally you are right, it does.

It does kind of put you in a

like.

So we're at 93 and 96, Yeah.

If I choose 94 and it's 95, is

it a tie?

It would be a tie and you get to

stay in the industry.

That's right, I.

Mean there's no way otherwise

you went 97 with this associate.

Here gets all your shops.

Yes, and the dash.

And the.

Dash.

And all that for Domo, Yeah. 94.

97 you went.

Man, I was going to say 97.

I was going to say 96.

But I felt like I was pressing

too.

High 96 was safe.

Yeah, that's why 96 was what I

would have said before you said

it.

Look at that.

And that's how it's done.

That's the second highest.

Ladies and gentlemen, that.

We've yeah, we've had a. 90 how

it's done No 99 can.

We have a 99.

Yeah, there are no hundreds.

I'll.

Just let you know that there's

no hundreds.

Shame, shame, shame.

Self game.

Shame.

Shame that was a good cigar to

pick because you guys didn't

know the guy that's a Cuban with

a high score.

Yeah.

Apparently he married it.

Apparently, yeah, he loves.

It I mean totally mowed he.

Quit.

He couldn't.

He'll never forget it.

It's like nothing.

Nothing will change.

Nothing will ever be higher.

I have chasted greatness and I

must be done.

Yes, Charlie, I retire.

I'm done.

I'm done after this.

Maybe he owed for it.

Maybe he had to pay Charlie for

it.

He.

Just left.

Yeah, OK.

Anything else to add, Mr.

Ballmer?

That is it, we are done.

That is it, we are done.

Where are we going to be at the

end of the month?

We are going to be at Huber or

Fine Cigars and Bo Weevil on the

27th and 28th Saturday, 1:00 to

5:00 Friday night, 5 till 8 or 5

to 9, something like that.

You can drive that one too.

No.

Why not?

It's only half the distance,

it's not the same.

That's only five hours for us,

by the way.

I love. 13 hours today.

Yeah, it's 30.

It's just like 7, yeah.

Nothing wrong with it.

We did drive to Detroit to see

you.

That's.

Right.

That's what I'm saying.

I mean, we did drive to Detroit,

go to Detroit, to Ronnie's.

You know, we could go to

dolphins, you know, no.

No, no, sorry.

All right.

Anything else to add Sir?

No.

All right.

Well, if you're in the Virginia

area, but it's a backology, my

guy.

Yeah, yeah.

I don't want to promote all your

stuff, but I get it.

Yeah, I well, but you.

Remind me mycology, Google the

word, we created it.

Figure it out and this is a good

cigar, so if you're there, pick

this one up.

Yeah.

Thank you, Oscar.

Yeah, he's a big fan.

He watches the.

Show yeah, the huge yeah, yeah.

Not a lot of TV choices in

Hunter.

He watches all five times a

week.

He watches every day.

Well, if.

AI would do a better job

translating.

He hits the Mexican button and

it's just an accent.

Make sure you like and subscribe

wherever you're viewing or

listening to the show.

And Mr. Magoomer will be gone by

the end of Monday as far as

pre-orders, so.

Jump on it.

This show goes up on Monday.

That's what I'm saying.

So when they watch it on Monday,

they better jump on it and get

it done.

If not, it's gone do.

It it's gone, do it.

Do it.

Do it.

All right, guys.

Thank you very much.

All right, bye.
