On today's episode I'm riffing on things you might need to consider if you're considering a career change or pivot of some sort. Having read an article in Livewire.com about fellas who made a move to Metal Music from real life careers in healthcare, software technology, hospital operations and teaching as examples.

The core brand of the Fuente Family, Arturo Fuente-brand cigars come in a wide variety of styles and shapes. Most are quite affordable. That’s how I discovered them early on and I was smoking the cheaper Fuente’s which I still love to this day.
