Episode 069 – In a slow news week, the guys still found plenty to talk about. We kicked things off with FIFA and the World Cup, including the controversial red card given to Flo Balogun and the surprising decision by FIFA to reverse his suspension, sparking debate over officiating, fairness, and the state of international soccer.

We then shifted gears to America 250, including President Trump’s visit to the Teddy Roosevelt Presidential Library and the legacy of one of America’s most influential presidents.

The cigar world finally got a major win as the Cigar Association of America defeated the FDA in a landmark case, pushing back against years of federal regulation and changing the future landscape for premium cigars.

Plus, we covered several other current events, random headlines, and the usual conversations that happen when two guys light up cigars and try to make sense of another week in America.
