Podcasts about cigars

This week on The Cigar Authority broadcasting live from the Toscano Sound Stage in Salem, New Hampshire... What Side should I light? Lighting and Smoking a Torpedo Cigar frontwards and backwards. Let's experiment and see what the difference really is. We light up two cigars from the Care Package (one is Prime), at the same time with a twist. We light them from opposite ends to see how and if they change the flavor profile. Join us for all of this and the usual suspects including the VS Question of the Week, Offer of the Day, Ask the Don, the Email of the Week and a peek into the Asylum. The Cigar Authority is a member of the United Podcast Network and is recorded live in front of a studio audience at Studio 21 Podcast Cafe upstairs at Two Guys Smoke Shop in Salem, NH.

This week the guys talk a healthy dose of cigar talk, talk about the art of cooking steak, and discuss football and team ownership. Tell a friend, tell a hobo... As always, send us questions and comments to theretrohale@gmail.com  Thanks for listening, ENJOY IT!

Welcome to the 100th episode of Missin Curfew. In this very special edition of the show, Obie and Updogg are joined by some of the most important people involved in getting the show to this milestone. What better place to start, than with the shows inception and the man that first gave the fellas their shot, Kevin Connolly! Then the master of social media himself, Mark Printz comes on to chat. After that the president of HallPass Media and friend and mentor to Shane and Scottie, Albert Hall joins the fellas in the studio. Later, the lovely Nadia Milner who has the pleasure of handling the finances and reviewing all the expenses from the Fella Tour comes on. And finally, breaking down what goes on behind the scenes to make the fellas look national league, are the producers of the show, Max Miller and Bing Banta.

Dave has 30 questions for Mr. Jonathan and Ed. Which things within the cigar industry are dead and which are alive?

Cigar Coop has been covering the Trade Show since 2010, and every year Topper Cigars is a company we don't miss. There is a rich history with this family and owner Chris Topper is quite proud of it. A year ago, Topper Cigars showcased the Topper 125th Anniversary Cigar. However as many companies have encountered, there were delays in packaging. The good news is the cigar is due to ship to retailers this summer. PCA 2022 Report: https://wp.me/p6h1n1-nji

The name "United" truly applies to United Cigars. United has a portfolio of its own brands, brands on which it collaborates with other leading companies, and distribution agreements. If you read our 2022 PCR Pre-Game Coverage, United Cigars was my selection for "The Company" at the Trade Show. This is a pick that names the company poised to have a big Trade Show.  There was little doubt after visiting United Cigars and the booth of one of the companies it distributes, Selected Tobacco, that this selection exceeded expectations. United also brings a portfolio that offers something for everybody - from value-priced to ultra-premium cigars. PCA 2022 Report: https://wp.me/p6h1n1-nj5

De Los Reyes Cigars did not have any new product at the 2022 Premium Cigar Association (PCA) Trade Show.  We interviewed company President Nirka Reyes to find out what the company has been up to. In addition to running the De Los Reyes cigar brand, Nirka heads up a tobacco processing operation that includes the De Los Reyes factory located in Santiago, Dominican Republic. That factory makes a host of third-party brands - and several of them were part of the De Los Reyes booth at PCA 2022. This year it included Debonaire House, Patoro Cigars, Topper Cigars, and a new addition to the booth - Casa de Suenos cigars. Of its own brands, De Los Reyes is still focusing on its Saga and Don Julio brands. Nirka told us they generally release a new cigar only when they are satisfied they have the tobacco to use. Finally, we typically don't get involved in talking about booth layouts, but a lot has been made that this is the last year of the current Reyes booth. The Reyes booth essentially has two main features - a library that is used for the De Los Reyes brand; and for the other companies in the booth, the remaining space modeled after the De Los Reyes factory (which features signature pastel colors).  PCA 2022 Report: https://wp.me/p6h1n1-niy

When it comes to the Premium Cigar Association (PCA) Trade Show, Crowned Heads has been a staple for over a decade. Every year, when it comes to visiting the Crowned Heads booth, the reaction coming out of it has pretty much always been “Crowned Heads had a great show”. This is with good reason – because the company has delivered time and time again with compelling products and the stories behind them. 2022 was no exception to the “great show” outcome. This year, Crowned Heads not only shared a booth with its strategic partner Ace Prime, but also with Tim Ozgener's new Ozgener Family Cigars company. In addition, Ozgener is reunited with his former CAO alumni as not only is Crowned Heads heads handling Ozgener's distribution, but Tim Ozgener himself is now a partner in Crowned Heads. In addition to the strong three-way alliance Crowned Heads has with Ace Prime and Ozgener Family Cigars, the company introduced two new products to market, including an exclusive cigar to 2022 PCA Trade Show attendees. Perhaps nobody brings a story to a cigar like Jon Huber, and this year was no exception. PCA 2022 Report: https://wp.me/p6h1n1-ngh

LA based photographer Ian Spanier was first on the show back in 2019 for a conversation about Classic Portraits & Classic Lighting, discussing a portrait of actor Jeff bridges. His lighting style immediately struck me as something so classic, and timeless. Since then, Ian and I have become friends, and when he was invited to do a lighting workshop for the photography students at California Baptist University in my hometown he invited me to sit in. Watching his laid back style was inspiring. Ian has a way of seeming so calm, even as 15 things are happening around him, any of which could derail the project. Recently, two things got me thinking about a different kind of show. One was talking to Vanessa Joy at WPPI this year, and wanting to get her on the show again. The other was watching Ian work at that workshop. I started to really look at what the show meant to me, and why I started it. Then it hit me... I look at Behind the Shot as a backwards interview. Instead of me interviewing a photographer, the photographer and I interview the photograph. Those "normal" Behind the Shot episodes are based on looking at one image, through it's many aspects, like the composition, lighting, posing, props, location, and post production. But, what I reversed that? What if we looked at one aspect, and how that element looks when applied in various photographic examples? This show is one of the results of that idea, and the second in the series. It's a show focused on Ian Spanier's favorite lighting setups. In this episode we are going to look at four of Ian's go-to setups, using a few images as examples, along with some behind-the-scenes images. Ian will help us understand the different characteristics of each modifier and setup, as well as the reason he might pick one setup over another, based on location, subject, or intended use. Ian will also introduce us the brand new umbrella, and idea he had and then developed with Westcott, the Westcott Deep Umbrella. This is a chance to speed up your on-set workflow, and start using tested and proven light setups on your jobs. If you're new to lighting, and need a bit of confidence boost, Ian's knowledge can help you get over any fears and start lighting you subjects with confidence. Oh yeah, in case you were wondering, the first show in this series was the one I did with Vanessa Joy focused on Posing Tips. It's no wonder that Ian's work is so refined. He began taking photographs at six years old, and he majored in photography in college. While he ended up working in publishing for some time, as an editor, photography never left him. He ended up teaching himself medium and large format, as well as lighting. Today Ian is a respected and published artist. His first full book of published work, "Playboy, a Guide to Cigars" arrived in cigar shops in November 2009, with the public version hitting retail stores in the Spring of 2010. The book is a collection of his photographs made in six countries, and spanning two and a half years. His second book project was a different subject altogether, and “Local Heroes: America's Volunteer Fire Fighters,” came out to critical acclaim in the Fall of 2012. His personal project "Right Next Door," has been featured on Huffingtonpost.com (here and here), The Daily Mail, and the Platypod Blog, and he's not even finished shooting! As an educator, Ian loves to share his experience as a lecturer for Canon, Westcott, PPA and the NY Photo Expo, B&H, The Sante Fe Workshop (2019) and The Fashion Institute of Technology in NYC. Ian is an Ambassador for Westcott as a "Top Pro," ThinkTank Photo, Spider Holster, as well as Hoodman USA, Sekonic, Naroo Global Masks, CamRanger, and finally, he's on Imagenomic's featured photographer list. The original “Masters of Photography” have always inspired Spanier as they shot what they saw. For him, there is no “one” subject that he photographs; he shoots what he sees. This approach has certainly paid off too.

Hawk talks about a new song that he loves, Tommy Olson is back in studio and talks about the win over Wisconsin and getting kicked out of bars afterwards!
