Seth and Catfish sit down to chat about Catfish departing What Embargo?

This is the last CigarChat before we leave for IPCPR in New Orleans... and is there a better way to wrap up the first half of the year than chatting with Rick Rodriguez of CAO Cigars?  We'll find out what's new with CAO and what we can expect to see at IPCPR.

AKA Cigars has a new sister company and it's called ACME Cigar Company!  Jay Lundy, of AKA fame, will give us the low down on the new project and we'll ever have some ACME cigars up for grabs!  Don't mis your chance to win some ACME cigars before they hit the stores!

Surgeon and Rob sit down with some Nomad S-307s to pair with cocktails. Surgeon pairs with a  Knob Creek Bourbon Orange Tumbler, Knob Creek Ginger Beer and a Flor de Cana Dirty Coke Float.Rob pairs with a Zacapa Estilo Viejo, Old Cuban, and a Paper Plane.Fred Rewey of Nomad Cigars pays a surprise visit to the show and sticks around for an hour to talk shop and answer questions.

We'll have Omar in the house to give us the low down on everything that is new with Fratello.  Logan is on assignment, so John will sit in.  We've got a ton of giveaways, so make sure to listen for the 'phrase that pays' and email it off to Rob for your chance at some Fratello cigars.

Surgeon and Rob sit down to pair some Liga Privada Dirty Rats with various beers to see which beer pairing will reign supreme! Surgeon pairs a Tank 7 Farmhouse Ale, Green Flash Double Stout, and a Grande Cuvée Porter Baltique. Rob pairs a  Prairie Bomb! Imperial Stout, Ballast Point Sculpin IPA, and a Stone Stochasticity Project - HiFi + LoFi Mixtape.

Phil Zanghi of Debonaire Cigars will join us live from the DR!  John will sit in for Logan, so I may play the role of The Grumpis... you never know! We've got some exclusive cigar giveaways for our podcast listeners, so make sure to listen for the phrase that pays!

Dave sits down with Skip Martin and the community for a Virtual Herf. A bunch of Fed Heads join in and questions get asked!

Danny and Nelson are two of my favorite guys to have on the show.  They have some great smokes and there are some new releases to talk about, but the best part is they pick on Logan!  It makes my life easier for one episode at least...  Anyway, its gonna be a great show and we have a ton of giveaways... we may even have some of The Rake up for grabs before they hit the stores... now do we hook you up or do we hook you up?
