Today’s guest is someone who’s made a career out of asking the questions most people are too polite—or too scared—to ask. He’s the man behind The Dom Nati Show, where no celebrity is safe, and every interview has the potential to go off the rails in the best way possible.

In this episode, Dom shares some of his most unforgettable—and completely unfiltered—celebrity encounters. We talk about:

• How Howie Mandel tried to play matchmaker and get Dom and his wife back together.
  
• Why Whoopi Goldberg hung up on him mid-interview.
  
• The time Charles Bucci refused to take a photo giving the reason being he had diarrhea..
  
• How one of Dom's interviews became part of The Chrisleys' courtroom drama.
  
• His pickup game of basketball with Will Ferrell on the set of Talladega Nights.
  
• The upcoming Netflix documentary that will feature another one of his interviews from 90 Day Fiancé.
  
• Why Drake Bell lost his cool and hung up on him.
  
• The truly bizarre confessions he got from the cast of Tiger King.
  
• How Jelly Roll’s wife came swinging in the comments of one of Dom’s TikTok videos.
  
• And the time he managed to annoy none other than Ludacris.
  

Trust me, this one’s a ride. So pour yourself a drink, spark up your favorite cigar, and get ready to hear stories you won’t find anywhere else.

If you’re not already following The Dom Nati Show, fix that. The next celebrity blow-up is probably just one question away.

Welcome my dad and my grandfather (from my Mom's side of the family) as they share the part of our family history that has been connected to tobacco dating all the way back to the 1800s!

The only part that is unfortunately missing in this re-release that is in the original is the short clip of my cousin and aunt... it has gotten lost in one of my laptops over the years! But its okay, we will just have to do another full episode with those psychos!

Welcome back, cigar aficionados and story lovers, to another captivating episode of Ashes with Ash! I'm your host, Ash, and I couldn't be more thrilled to have you all here with me today.

In this episode, we have a very special guest joining us – the wonderful Arlene. She's not only here to share her own inspiring journey but also the remarkable stories of those who have shaped her life (like her superhero mom and military hero, dad) and the vibrant world of the cigar industry: (from her husband, to the Fuente family, to Nick Perdomo and how his tour of Perdomo factory in Nicaragua sparked a learning desire in Arlene!)

As we dive into Arlene's narrative, get ready to be enthralled by tales of resilience, passion, and the power of connections. Through her experiences, we'll discover how the cigar industry can be a medium for personal growth and meaningful relationships.

But wait, there's more! I’m excited to introduce a brand-new segment to the Ashes with Ash Podcast. It's time to shine a spotlight on incredible women's stories from both history and present day. Their achievements, triumphs, and contributions will leave you in awe and inspired.

Today, I am sharing the story of Zenzile Miriam Makeba - South African singer, songwriter, actress, and civil rights activists!

So, sit back, relax, and get ready to embark on a journey of exploration, empowerment, and enlightenment. As always, your support means the world to me, and I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I do.

Without further ado, let's jump right into the stories of Arlene and the amazing women who have left their mark on history and continue to do so today.

Connect wit Arlene!
