  • Get rid of Randy!

    Just finished listening to the “Brand Stock Market” episode. That Randy guy ruined the show with his incessant interrupting, high octane volume and that fake laugh he blasts after every comment. They should stop including him on their podcasts.

Zino’s Tom Zbyrad In-Studio for Smoke Night LIVE
Q: Tell folks what your role is with Zino. What do you do with Zino?
Tom explains that his role covers the marketing side for Zino and the entire portfolio, including promotions, swag from his Drew Estate days, show appearances, promotions, merchandising displays, and coordinating with retailers and sponsors.
We’ve Been Keeping a Secret… Until Now
Q: How does cigarranker.com work and how do you participate?
Users sign up with email or Google, add up to 20 cigars to their personal list, and interact with a live leaderboard. The more complete a list, the more weight it has on rankings, helping to balance against spam and group manipulation.
Rocky Mountain Cigar Fest 2026 Pre-Game Show
Q: What makes the Rocky Mountain Cigar Fest different from other multi-vendor events?
The event provides a pre-distributed set of cigars for attendees to try at booths, allowing deeper conversations about products rather than just handing out cigars, which enables meaningful consumer-brand interaction.
The Ultimate Cigar Vitola Tier List with Steve Saka
Q: What are your thoughts on Lancero versus Lonsdale in terms of elegance and practicality?
Lancero is a cigar-nerd size with dramatic concentration and frequent draw/relight issues; Lonsdale offers elegance and balance, often a solid B but not universally loved; Steve and others emphasize consistency over novelty.
The Ultimate Cigar Vitola Tier List with Steve Saka
Q: Why do corona gorda sizes often land in the S-tier for Steve?
They provide enough space for complex blends, enabling a richer, more balanced smoke while maintaining a robust construction; several panelists agreed it's an S-tier size for blending versatility.
