They discuss the different types of port, including Tawny Port and ruby port.  They share their experiences visiting various cigar lounges and the sense of camaraderie they have found in the cigar community.  They emphasize the importance of sharing knowledge and experiences with others in both the cybersecurity and cigar worlds. There are various cigar lounges in different cities, such as the JC Newman Lounge in Las Vegas and the Davidoff Lounge in Vegas.  Repairing damaged cigars can be done using pectin or by replacing the wrapper.  Ventilation and air purifiers are important for smoking indoors and removing smoke odor.  Attending the PCA conference in New Orleans is a possibility, but media support in the cigar industry is limited.  Consideration is given to doing a live event from New Orleans and attending other conferences in an RV.
