An annual tradition continues on Prime Time Jukebox Episode 185, the Dedications Show for 2026. Dave Burck started the Dedications Show on Cigar Jukebox. Each year, listeners could submit a dedication song to honor a loved one or someone special who has passed away. Since we launched Prime Time Jukebox, we have included the Dedications Show every year. A tradition on the Dedications Show is to light up a Las Calaveras Cigar by Crowned Heads. Las Calaveras is an annual limited edition cigar that pays homage to those who have passed away over the past year. As opposed to being a mournful symbol, it is intended to celebrate those lives and remembrances of those who are no longer with us. We will smoke the Las Calaveras Edición Limitada 2025. Tune in to the premiere Prime Time Jukebox Episode 185 on YouTube on Monday, 4/27/25 at 8pm ET. The show will also be posted on the Cigar Coop Facebook Live page. As always, you can follow along with our Spotify Playlists: Episode 185 Playlist
