A Cigar Hustlers Podcast

In this week’s episode, the guys return after yes, you guessed it another YouTube ban. The crew dives into the latest election cycle madness, the chaos at airports as the shutdown strangles air travel, and the absolute circus surrounding the Bill’s collapse in Miami. No one is safe from the Herf treatment this week.

Patrol Gone Wild takes us back to Buffalo for a pair of animal encounters straight out of a zoo, and over to NYC where two dogs decided to take a bite against law enforcement.

Caleb’s News lightens the mood with cigar world updates featuring fresh drops from Espinosa and Lampert, plus a new Russell’s Reserve release that’s guaranteed to make whiskey lovers smile.

Welcome to The Cigar Hustlers Podcast, Episode 413!

This week — cops chase down Breakfast, Kim Kardashian hits another legal speed bump, and the NFL delivers plenty of winners and losers in Week 10.

In cigar news — Cigar Page is building something massive, Rocky Patel’s got big anniversary plans, and a few surprises are hitting retailers across the country.

The boys dive headfirst into another wild week, starting with the Dodgers’ repeat World Series run and whether baseball is officially scripted or just allergic to parity. From there, it’s chaos in the combat world as we unpack the UFC fight-fixing scandal and how it ties right into the NBA’s latest betting drama. Add in a good old-fashioned government shutdown that’s left people without SNAP benefits, and you’ve got the perfect recipe for America’s favorite dumpster fire. To restore balance (and sanity), we close things out with our review of the Room 101 Namakubi 2025Patrol Gone Wild brings cinematic glory this week with a car chase that ends in a pond and two taser deployments straight out of a blooper reel.Caleb’s News wraps it up with new drops from Arturo Fuente and Bocock Brothers, plus the coldest pour on the planet — a whiskey aged in Antarctica.Cigar: Room 101 Namakubi 2025 A huge thank you to our show sponsors Crowned Heads Cigars, Dunbarton Tobacco and Trust, and Small Batch Cigars!

Another top-tier cigar show has announced it’s calling it quits at the end of the year. After years of dedication, countless interviews, and hundreds of episodes — it’s over.

Is this the beginning of the end for cigar media as we know it? Or just another example of how much work goes into these shows for so little return — in money, recognition, or respect from within the industry?

This week we break down what’s really happening behind the microphones. From burnout to bandwidth, sponsorship struggles to platform restrictions, we’re asking the hard question:
👉 Is cigar media in crisis… or just evolving?

Join us as we take an honest look at what it takes to survive in the cigar media space today, and whether the grind is still worth it.

This week, the boys lit up the Crowned Heads Blood Medicine B Positive and things got hilariously unhinged. Between the bizarre No Kings protest, an Oceans 11-style robbery at the Louvre, and Shohei Ohtani’s latest feats of baseball wizardry, the crew found plenty to puff and ponder over.Patrol Gone Wild was full of classics a prisoner who smuggled a gun somewhere the sun don’t shine, another DWI suspect who thought chaos was a strategy, and a Kentucky heist straight out of bourbon folklore at Castle & Key Distillery.Then Caleb’s Got News closed the show with fresh cigar drops from Cohiba and Sinistro, plus a special release from Paul Sutton Bourbon that’s sure to make whiskey lovers drool.Cigar: Crowned Heads B-Positive A huge thank you to our show sponsors Crowned Heads Cigars, Dunbarton Tobacco and Trust, and Small Batch Cigars!
