About this episode
(January 23, 2024 - Hour One) 9:14pm - Can you believe we are NEAR the end of January already? 2024 Rapidly coming to a close and tonight we lead off with Christie Vanover from Girls Can Grill . Christie lives in Vegas and attended the 2024 CES that Wes and I talked about last week. We will get her take on what some of these items looked like in person, her take on how successful they might be and what else she has going on in her live-fire word! Christie also just launched a new podcast hat we will discuss as well. 9:35pm - After Christie, I will be joined by official show cigar expert, Mr. Jonathan from The Cigar Authority podcast. As you might recall, we have been going to "Cigar School" the last few times Mr. J has been on going over the parts that make up a cigar. Tonight we explore the last part...the "filler". What tobacco makes this up, what is its purpose, what flavors do they add and all the other things that filler tobacco is known for. We will also talk about the 2023 Cigar of The Year as chosen by TCA and some other topics as well.
