  • Good but needs improvement

    good personalities and content but production needs significant work. The audio levels are mismatched. One person will be very loud, and the other will be barely audible. Also, somebody keeps click clacking a cutter or lighter in the mic and bumping into the mic

  • Have followed for years

    Love the guys and have followed for years. Production quality can be a bit shabby. Hopefully they can pay for a better producer and make essential improvements to help them up to standards similar to Cigar Dojo.

  • Dope show! Must listen!

    This show got me deep into the cigars. I’ve been listening for the past 3-4 years but I have heard every episode. Honest Abe is a beast! Lady M is missed but the show still holds up. I feel bad for Adam. Paul is annoying. It’s the best when Abe and everyone clowns on him. He’s definitely a cat person! Haha still must listen.
