We’re back again! We’re kicking off our 3rd season discussing fast food. It my not be the best for you, but we can all agree on some favorites. After we agree on what exactly constitutes a fast food restaurant, Mike goes off on several pet peeve rants, we discuss the nostalgic aspects of fast food, and we go through our favorite places to get specific items.

If you want to drop us a line, we’d love to hear from you at [email protected]!

Tonight’s cigar is the Aging room Small Batch M356.

We’re finally back (again)!

As you can tell from the title, we’re both literally and figuratively breaking our fast with a breakfast episode.

Mike works himself up with excitement talking about how to prepare eggs, Ryan purposefully goes off on a planned tangent about Saturday morning cartoons, we design our ideal breakfasts from the ground up, and we talk about everything that makes breakfasts one of top three meals of the day!

This episode’s cigar is the “La Opulencia” from My Father.

No witty pun from Mike this episode; we're talking about pizza!

We discuss homemade pizzas, frozen pizzas, and chain pizzas.

Mike guides you through making great pizzas at home. From making a perfect dough, to how to top it, he covers it all.

PS - the word Mike was searching for the entire episode is extensibility.

Tonight's cigar is the Reserve Toro from Cuban Stock

Holy cow! We're discussing all things bovine this episode.

We attempt to guide you from horn to hoof, stopping at several areas to go over our favorite cuts, and how we like to prepare them.

We also touch on cheese and milk, and Mike reveals the strange (and probably delicious) way he's been having his cereal.

Today's cigar is the Swamp Thang from Drew Estate Cigars

The After Dinner Cigar is jumping in our time machine to reminisce about school lunches.

We talk about the good and not so good aspects of our school lunches growing up, and Ryan discovers that Mike had it a lot better in Catholic school than he did in public.

Hear about our favorites for both bringing your lunch and buying it from the cafeteria.

This episode's cigar is the fantastic Martial Law from the Nomad Cigar Company. 

This time we're sticking with the sweet stuff, and talking about desserts of all kinds.

Ryan of course has some governing rules of his own as to what does and does not constitute a dessert, while Mike tries (mostly in vain) to convince Ryan that fruit belongs in desserts.

And it takes all episode, but Mike finally nails down his top three dessert list by the end!

This episode's cigar is the Kristoff Sumatra Torpedo.

We're Back!

In case you don't know the song lyric (don't worry, Ryan didn't know, either), it's from "Smoke Gets In Your Eyes." So we're talking about smoking foods!

We cross the lines between smoking and barbecue many times this episode. We shake off the rust to talk about our favorite meats to smoke, go deep on a rub technique, and we invent something that's already been invented!

This episodes cigar is the Sam Adams Utopia.

Welcome to our Thanksgiving episode! We are all about traditional holiday grub this fortnight.

Everything is covered, from our favorite (and not so favorite) appetizers, all the way to our favorite desserts. Mike even reveals a new quirk regarding the serving of dips.

Tonight's cigar is the Perdomo Estate Seleccion Vintage 2002 Maduro.

We're back (again)!

The After Dinner Cigar is back, and we're covering sweet and savory foods that are on sticks.

Starting out with savory foods, we talk about kebobs and other foods you can eat on sticks. We break the mold on what even constitutes a stick on this episode, in a mind blowing revelation.

Then we switch to sweets, where Ryan waxes nostalgic for way too long about the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and Mike picks the wrong Good Humor ice cream bar as his favorite.

Since it was just Halloween, we even go a little bit on a tangent about bad candy to get while trick or treating.

We're Back! 

In this episode, we discuss food shows of all shapes and sizes. Informative shows, entertainment shows, and competition shows all get covered as we tell you which shows to watch and which ones aren't worth it.

Mike recommends a lot of Netflix shows that he can't remember the titles of, and Ryan lets you know his true feelings about Guy Fieri (It's not positive). Mike also alienates some television hosts who will probably never agree to do our show now. And we were so close to booking the Pioneer Woman!
