[E034] We Launched the Box Pass, Got a Mean Comment & Talked Cigars for 2 Hours
The juice was flowing after Tuesday's episode with Joe MCO, so we fired it back up on Thursday for an impromptu garage session — no guest, just the crew, some serious sticks, and a lot to talk about.
Episode 34 covers the official launch of our very first Discord Box Pass, Jonathan Drew's new venture J'Son & Son, Protocol Cigars getting acquired by Smokinn, our 2026 Top 25 Cigar List updates, Eddie on the Street in Bedford TX, the Rumble upload situation, our YouTube growth, and a whole lot more. Oh — and we finally got a mean comment. We were thrilled.
Pull up a chair. This one runs deep.
