Messy Family Podcast : Catholic conversations on marriage and family
“We can only see our spouse clearly when we look at Jesus first.” - Dan Lawson Summary In this podcast, we tackle some hard issues in marriage. What makes couples believe that they need to get divorced? Why is it essential for couples to have a vision for their individual lives and for their marriage? What is the pattern in successful marriages that we can emulate? We even talk about what to say to a person who tells you they are getting a divorce - a very difficult and sensitive topic, but one that we have to discuss. Dan Lawson is a Catholic therapist who takes a solution-focused approach with his clients, as opposed to “problem-focused” approach. This means that instead of looking only at what is going wrong in a relationship, he asks questions and guides clients to look at what is going right. This hopeful approach helps spouses to encounter their own goodness which is where you need to start to create a pattern of mutual admiration, one of the hallmarks of a successful marriage. Listen into this essential conversation! Key Takeaways Divorce is a sin against hope. It says “I can't change. They can't change.” The goal of life is not the perfect marriage, the goal is holiness. We need to start first by looking at Jesus and pursuing holiness in our own lives. Then our marriage can improve. It is essential that each of us look first at what we are doing right in our marriages and in our lives. When we can see and affirm that, then we can do more of that and “starve” out the negativity. Every person needs to ask themselves the question, “Who do I want to be at the end of my life?” We need to have a vision for our lives and live that way in our marriages. Establishing a pattern of admiration and trust is key to building a life-long, life-giving marriage. Most spouses struggle to communicate their needs and their feelings. Couple Discussion Questions What is my vision for my life? Who do I want to be at the end of my life? How has my spouse loved me this year? What are some of our greatest accomplishments together? “The goal of life is not the perfect marriage, the goal is holiness” What are my thoughts on this?
Today's guest is Dan Lawson! Dan holds a license to practice Mental Health Counseling in the state of New York, where he has been practicing psychotherapy for over fifteen years. Currently he maintains a private practice in Western New York where he lives with his wife and seven children and primarily serves Catholic Marriages and Families.

After seeing so many struggling marriages benefit quickly from the simple principles employed through his practice, he decided to create Hearts Renewed, a step-by-step marriage program designed for married Catholics, to transform their marriage from the comfort of their home. In addition to his private practice and online marriage resources, Dan hosts the Smuggling Hope Podcast, designed to bring Catholic counsel to the community, inviting listeners into therapeutic conversations to navigate the current landscape of family, faith, marriage, mental health, and growing cultural concerns.

Ultrarunner and coach Robbie Britton recently broke the 24-hour British record which has stood since 1982! He covered a distance of 277.439 km in a 24-hour continuous race, involving laps of Ruffini Park, in Turin. He gives us insight on how he was able to achieve this amazing feat. His thirst for adventure has led him on some incredible journeys including a 650km record breaking crossing from north to south of Jordan with fellow British ultra runner Dan Lawson in 2019. The film Lost Dogs & Englishmen captures this adventure perfectly. We talk about his book 1001 Running Tips for every runner (a must read!) and we discuss the excitement building around the World Mountain and Trail running championships in Austria later this week.

This episode I was able to get Greg Martz from GM Development, Dan Lawson from Meyer Najem Construction and Tim Jensen from The Veridus Group to get in depth discussions on the Build Operate Transfer (BOT) project delivery method following Indiana State Statute IC 5-23. Between these three they have over 100 BOT projects completed in the State of Indiana ranging from Municipalities fire stations, police stations, civic centers, parks & recreations and libraries to name a few. BOT allows for the design, construction, operation, management, maintenance, and securing financing of the cost of a public facility to be partially or entirely the responsibility of the operator. During this episode we will walk through the BOT process, discuss it's benefits as well as it's risks and add lessons learned from each person's perspective. This episode is a good road map for anyone considering using the BOT as a delivery method on their capital projects.

Joy is...Symbiosis.Dan Lawson is a record-breaking ultramarathon runner who's represented Great Britain and achieved podium finishes in some of the world's toughest races. He is the current LEJOG (Land's End to John O'Groats) record holder, and founder of the incredible ReRun initiative, which aims to prolong the life of sports clothes and equipment and campaign to reverse the impact that over-consumption and production in the running world is having on the environment.Dan is a truly beautiful soul who really does epitomise 'running on joy' in all areas of his life. He is a values driven person who wears his heart on his sleeve and cares deeply for the world around him and the people in it. This conversation played over and over in my mind as I slipped on my own running shoes this week and Dan's words filled me with immense gratitude for the deep sense of connection to the Universe that moving over the earth can bring.We ranged across so many topics, from what 'flow' means to us to our shared childhood affinity for seals! We touch on many of Dan's achievements but, more profoundly, think together about the exquisite vulnerability of being human and what the pure actions of running, community and love bring us.Dan makes you want to be the best version of yourself and sharing time with him was an immense privilege that I am honoured to share with you in turn.Follow: @therunningdanWatch: 'Breaking Ten' (Dave MacFarlane's film following Dan's LEJOG record)Support: ReRun @rerun.clothing @rubbishshoesListen: British Ultra Running Podcast (hosted by Dan and James Elson)Research: Multiday RacesImage: Dave MacFarlane (DmTwo Media) Hosted on Acast.

According to Insider, it is a trend that involves mixing cleaning chemicals in sinks and toilets to create "mesmerizing" visual results, but experts say it could be damaging to the environment. Well, according to Dan Lawson, Co-Founder & President Of Business Affairs at Viking Pure Solution, a company that produces patented e-water, nontoxic solutions and cleaning products, you don't need a “product overload” to harm the environment when using cleaning products. To better understand how our everyday cleaning products are impacting the environment, our health, and how Viking Pure's cleaning products stand to make a difference, we sat down with Lawson to discuss this in today's Brains Byte Back episode. In the episode, Lawson shares that normal chemical products have a multitude of ingredients with colors, fragrances and soaps that are added, which can damage surfaces over time. However, Lawson argues that Viking Pure's products are far more minimalist and walks us through how its machines are capable of taking salt (sodium chloride), mixing it with water, and combining it with electricity in a very specific way to create the company's cleaning solutions. We also discuss how Viking Pure's solutions can help the environment not only by stopping harmful chemicals from being released into it, but also by reducing packaging, and carbon footprint. And finally Lawson shares some case studies of how their products have helped clients and customers so far, alongside the story behind the name Viking Pure.

Ultra runner Debbie first appeared on YHRF in Episode 4 of Season 2. She was busy prepping for The Spine Race (it got postponed) whilst juggling the social media rigours of the wonderful Marcothon. We catch up with Debbie this time around about all the stuff we failed to cover last time round, and that's heaps! With her wealth of knowledge and experience in the world of running how could we resist from picking her brains once again? We talk running tours of the Glasgow Mural Trail in the city she loves, joining Dan Lawson during his iconic LEJOG attempt, Team GB 24 Hour racing, her favourite races....ever, coping with 100 mile race curveballs, Anglo-Celtic Plate managerial duties, virtual racing (and rainbow buffs), competing in the gruelling Tour De Geants, Steven & Debbie find they share a trainer addiction and we even slip in an(other) blether about the Kinlochleven Chip Shop. We find time to touch on a more serious topic too, that of female solo running and how Debbie feels about it along with some of her tactics to ensure she's keeps safe out on the streets, trails and hills. Steven challenges Debbie to run to the moon, does she accept though? Remember hang on until the end as we coax out Debbie's favourite local dialect word and assess if it's a worthy entry into the YHRF dialect dictionary! It's another fun filled chat full of laughs & precious tips, hints and inspiration from a lady who leaves an indelible mark on everyone she meets with her enthuisiam and commitment to achieving great things. You can catch up on our first part chat with Debbie on this link - Debbie Martin-Consani Part 1
John and Steven pick up the chat where we left off in the last episode with James Stewart. And if you enjoyed part 1 you will LOVE part 2. We delve further into James' career finding out about his recent John Muir Way FKT, his involvement in the amazing Dan Lawson's LEJOG effort and (in a first) we actually get talking about some proper running stuff like training load and focussed recovery! There are some absolute nuggets of gold of info and inspiration in here for anyone who runs. How often the only barrier to progress is your thoughts and mindset, yes, we get tore right into all that with laughs a plenty along the way. Our two-parter with James has been brilliant fun to record, it's provoked so much thoughts and discussion about our own running why. We hope that these episodes have a similar effect on you.

Dan Lawson is a GB Ultra Runner wih a list of achievement almost too long to name. I first hear of Dan through my brother and hearing the stories of the crazy distances that he would run. Upon meeting Dan, he explains running these distances as not only simple, but blissfully peaceful and a human capability we all hold at some point. We go into areas such as the mindset needed to run distances well over 100km, the mediative state it gets him in, stories along the way and the sustainability of running attire.

On the first weekend in April there was a very special event in Crawley. On the 400m athletics track at the K2 Leisure Centre, the Freedom Leisure British Ultrafest 24hr Running Championships took place. A field of 30 runners competed in an event where they would each push to run the greatest distance they were able in a 24hr period. More still came to run 12 and 6 hour versions of the same event. That's 6, 12 or 24 consecutive hours running around the same track. As endurance events go this is uniquely challenging. It is a cutting back of endurance to a matter purely of running ability and the strength of mind to persevere with almost no distraction from noon one day until noon the next. In a special edition outside broadcast, Will talks to the runners and organisers to find out why these athletes take on this massive distance. Featuring, among others, Dan Lawson of Team GB, William Sichel, a multi-record holder and the first Brit to finish the world's longest footrace within 52 days, and Abichal Sherrington who has completed that same race among dozens of others from marathon to 1000 miles.
We speak with Scott Hawker from the Southern Hemisphere on his 2nd place at TNF100, Joe Fejes talks about running 6 days and clocing a new American record, 606.24 miles and Dan Lawson discussed the GUCR 145 mile race and his record breaking run. Karl is back, we have the News, a Blog and guess what, no up and comng races...
This week's episode is an interview with voice actor Dan Lawson about the biggest lessons learned in his life and craft so far. Listen to find out how a defining moment of independent happiness, the importance of being nurturing, balancing creativity with professional demands, and so much more relate to those lessons. This is an episode filled with laughter and heartfelt observations about living. Whether you seek to live life to the fullest or you enjoy discussions about creative industries, this one might be for you! Insight in Progress will be taking a short break for the holidays, but the show returns on Monday, January 13th!
This week we welcome Craig Schneider back for the biggest smoke ever on DogWatch Cigar Radio. The three of us exchanged cigars this week so we each have three cigars to review making for a total of nine reviews of 6 different cigars (do the math yourself, this one confused me). We also have mail from Palio contest winners, a request from a listener and a question for our team of experts. Cigars of the Week - Cigar of the Week: Bob – E.P Carillo Golosos Cigars Ring Gauge: 60 Length: 6.5 inches Shape: Toro Gordo Strength: Medium E.P Carillo Golosos Cigars - The creator and the man behind the famous cigar brand La Gloria Cubana has launch a new personal project and another fabulous cigar The E.P. Carillo. The filler in the EP Carillo cigar is a well aged 5 year old Dominican and Nicaraguan fillers that is bound and wrapped with a 3 year old Ecuadorian-grown Habano wrapper. This cigar is a medium bodied cigar that is characterized creamy flavors, and rich notes of pepper. Cigar of the Week: Dale - Mi Tierra Habano Ring Gauge: 60 Length:4.5” Shape/Name:Parejo - Grand Mi Tierra cigars are Dominican Puros, made from tobaccos grown on a single farm. Michael Munoz is the brand face of the line, but the cigars were developed in a joint venture with Jose Blanco. All the blend tobacco has been aged for 3 years and is covered in a silky Habano variety wrapper. A complex cigar with more spice then one might expect, especially right from the start. Rich and bold full flavors that keep the cigar very interesting throughout the experience. The body of the smoke is medium, and the strength level is above the typical Dominican profile. Cigar of the Week: Craig - Anonymous Ring Gauge:56 Length:6.375” Shape/Name:Parejo - Sublimes (roughly - Little short, little wide) This large cigar has a rustic Mexican San Andreas Seco skin on a body of tobacco coming from all one country. It brings a slightly sweet demeanor to the table with an interesting spicy core. It was released to slightly negative fanfare and never received the due I feel it deserved. In my opinion, it did not take off as a cigar enjoyed by the masses. That explains why I may like it, as my tastes tend to lean away from the trends of today. Strength, but with balance; the only way I’ll take it. Rearranging show dates! We are moving the the Nov 4 show to November 5 as Liz and I will be traveling that evening. _______________________________________________ We get Mail: Sometimes it takes a while.... Liz, Below is a copy of an email I tried to send on 15 JUL 11. I continued to listen to the podcast wondering if you ever received it. Bob & Dale, Thank you! Thank you for the selecting me as the May contest winner of the magnificent Palio cutter. I received it in the mail about two weeks ago and have used it for every cut on my cigars since. I was just getting ready to buy one when I listened to your podcast and heard I was selected; now I’ll have to buy a carbon fiber cutter. You mentioned on the podcast that you believed I was military and you was absolutely correct. I am a sergeant First Class in the Army stationed in Germany and recently returned home from Afghanistan. I am very new the good life of cigar smoking but thanks to your podcast (and the power of the internet), I have become educated quickly. Once again thank you for selecting me, for an incredible radio show, and for your support of the uniformed services. Keep up the great work! v/r SFC Tim Delaney More Mail: a call to our listeners DJ Shalifoe is looking for any retailers that still have pre-General Cigar CAO La Traviatas in stock. DJ writes: The old pre-GC Traviatas come with the CAO branded Boveda pack in the box whereas the post-GC CAOs do not. I'm partial to the Divino and Animados vitolas in either natural or maduro. The reason I want the older ones is that I find CAO cigars under General's ownership to have fallen off the cliff, so to speak. If any listener knows of a retailer with pre-GC Traviatas, send the info to theshow@cigarmedia.tv and we will pass it along. More Mail: Listener feedback John Magrisso to Liz after she followed up to see how he liked the Palio cutter he won in June Liz, I received the Palio cutter sometime at the very end of June and shot Bob an e-mail when upon its receipt. I've been very happy with it- it has lived up to all the accolades given on the show each week! As to the show, I've been listening for a number of years now, and though I'm not the most vocal listener, I look forward to it every week and thoroughly enjoy the sense of community it provides us cigar smokers (especially living here in Massachusetts, where I'll get dirty looks just for smoking on my own front steps)! So thank you all! John Legislative Update Venezuela has annulled by decree an anti-smoking law, which prohibits tobacco use in public places and offices a day after enforcement. Venezuela's Ministry of Health announced its new decision just a day after the anti-smoking law was printed in the Official Gazette. According to the new legislation, smoking was banned in public spaces, cafes, public toilets, dining halls and joined buildings. The new law was planned to be implemented after three months, said a Press TV correspondent. Get the full story Craig: Funny how Venezuela’s ban comes right on the heals of their dictator’s struggle with cancer. Wait... I’ve read this again. So they’re annulling the legislation? Craig’s Esencia Contest #1 - Adam Zed Esencia Canonazo Cut - took off just the cap to produce a good draw. Not tight, but almost perfect. Pre-light aroma - I don't do this anymore as the smells might get mixed when I have a lot of singles in the same area. Apperance - Nice color, firm but not hard body. The cap was almost invisible, it was so well placed and pressed into the crown. Smoke time - 2 hours on the nose Drink - Pepsi and ice. Also a bottle of water if I want to cleanse well. Light - Toasted end with triple torch until an ember appears then draw a couple times with a little bit of heat to the end of the cigar. I decided to break this stick into quarters instead of the typical thirds...no reason, just thought it would work, and it did. First few puffs ( I don't use these to determine the whole first quarter ) - Big kick to the back of the throat. A lot of black pepper that I get from Nica tobacco. Very heavy. First quarter - After the first 4-6 pulls, the cigar settled down. I immidiately thought of Illusione MK. Smooth ! The back of throat raspiness went away immidiately. Black pepper lingers for a minute after expelling smoke. Pallet filling, great. The burn is great, straight and not pulling inside at all. The smoke at this point is drying my mouth with every puff, but making me salivate at the same time...I almost equate this to the experience of an almond when you first put it in your mouth, it is drying your mouth, but making you salivate at the same time. There is an underlying peaty/ earthiness that comes in only after smoke is expelled and taste lingers. At this point, it reminds me the only H. Upmann Mag 50 I have had, wonderful ! Second quarter - Started developing a white pepper flavor that I absolutely love, I only get this in T52 Toros and it is the flavor I always search for. Still a drying effect with the smoke in my mouth at the sides, almost like red wine tannins when you first take a drink and it gives you that "bite" at the back sides of your mouth. Still smooth. There is a mineral, almost metallic, taste that comes in now that works well with cigars on the finish. Third quarter - Settled out now to a lush white pepper flavor predominantly filling the pallet. Still a mineral feeling/taste that works. The body now goes from a steady medium, to medium-full as the smoke seems to get richer and thicker. Now I am getting a roasted deep tobacco flavor at the end of this quarter that fills out my missing piece for what I look for in a great cigar. MMMM ! White pepper and roasted tobacco complement each other so well because they don't bombard your pallet, but complement the experience. Last quarter - Same tastes at the beginning, but as I get deeper in, the roasted flavor starts to dominate. The flavor and smoke completely coat the mouth. I know when I blow smoke out and it becomes a giant white/grey cloud that floats in the air outside like a cloud, that it has now transcended into full bodied. The white pepper subsided and became a creamy roasted tobacco ending ... oh wow ! Great finish. I don't usually smoke cigars until I littlerally burn my fingers, most of the time I smoke them down to about an inch, but if the smoke is still cool enough and has flavors other than tar, I tend to incure short term pain for long term gain. I have only done this once, with a Padron Maduro. I highly recommend these cigars, and would buy more to lay them away for a little bit to see if that mineral taste would subside a little bit, as it was the only thing that wasn't helping earlier, but that mineral taste was not bad in any way. Now for the non-technical of this email; I love these cigars, and recommend them to as many people as I can. I have given them away to people, even though it is very hard for me to find them as the retailers are not willing to ship up here, and also turned people onto smoking these wonderful beauties. I have had the Lancero, Canonazo, Robusto, and Corona Extra's. My preferance is the robusto's as the blend just "fits". It is funny that when I ordered some cigars the last time, my friend who goes down across the border to pick them up for me and bring them back across to ship here informed me of how he had been looking for Esencias for a while as well. He was so happy to know where to get them after we discussed my source; Fullers Pullers. He was even happier when he was gifted a 5 pack of cigars heh. As far as my "experience" with Esencias, I cannot say that I have smoked them with anyone else at the same time, or done anything wild with them anywhere as I have just been smoking them for a few months now, but what I can say is that my "experience" with Marc of Brothers of the Leaf LLC has been fantastic ! He has treated me well, answered a few questions I have asked in a timely manor, sent me a couple cigars to start me off in down the road of ever-expanding credit card debt, and seems to be doing well at maintaining a great standard on his cigars. As a consumer, I cannot ask for much more from a brand owner....well I guess I could ask him to come up here to the frozen north for a shop event .......... but somehow I highly doubt that :/ Thanks Craig for reading this long-ass email, I am just so happy that I finally found a way to get these cigars up here, even though there are a bunch of hoops to jump through. #2 Ralph from Connecticut (Ralph Purificato) On Mon, Oct 3, 2011 at 10:36 AM, Ralph Purificato wrote: Hey guys. Long time podcast listener who went to the CRA website to support the Traditional Cigar Manufacturing and Small Business Jobs Preservation Act. Unfortunately the support in CT seem to fall on deaf ears as you can see below. My response from Senator Blumenthal was the same as from Mr. Leiberman. Just wanted to pass this on and see if we could make a little more noise in Connecticut to let our "representatives" know that consenting adults would like to make their own choices on how we spend our time and money. I also wanted to take the last half of this email to talk about Esencia cigars for Craig's contest. I still consider myself a "new" cigar smoker though I have been enjoying cigars for close to 10 years. It started when I was 18 and a friend and I were given cigars by an older relative. From that point on we've always frequented our local smoke shop, The Owl Shop in New Haven CT. Up until about 2 years ago I never bothered to try and pick out flavors and a cigar simply being smooth was my main criteria. Now since paying more attention and listening to podcasts and reviews I am enjoying cigars more than ever. With that being said, I finally picked up an Esencia cigar last week and enjoyed it on my porch with a glass of water. The first thing that hit me on the first few puffs was gingerbread. As I smoked the cigar more and tried to pick out the individual flavors, I found that the spice and cedar woody flavors I picked out combined to make that initial "gingerbread" that hit me initially. I really enjoyed this cigar and it seemed to fit the fall season that's starting here. The burn was also terrific and the cigar smoked great down to the nub. I will definitely be picking up more of these and really enjoyed it. -- Ralph from Connecticut #3 Dan Crouch WINNER - He shared the experience with another. I gotta say I never thought I would have an Esencia cigar in my life (or any super premium for that matter). There are no Brick and Mortars in the area and to be honest they are really not in my price bracket. However, due to the kindness of Marc Aub I received a few samples and now I am hooked. The cigar smells as good as it smokes and that is amazing. All have been smooth and had a nice touch of sweetness along with hints of pepper in the retro. I even gave one of the few to my dad and he just could not believe how smooth it was. Now I am saving my change in hopes of buying a box should I ever get up to the city (Chicago). #4 Charlie Platt from Springdale AR Some of the best NCCs in my man cave! I tried these on recommendation of Bob and Dale. Completely satisfied! A rich and complex smoke. Great work BOTL. Charlie Platt What's My Band? - This week we have three unbanded cigars, one from each of the hosts.. Bob: Dales unbanded (Famous Nicaraguan 7000): Great leather with a slight sweet spice, I enjoyed this cigar tremendously. Now I guess I have to buy some. Craig (Craigs own blend): unbanded was the best constructed lancero I had had for some time. But the tste did not quite live up to the construction all the way through. Craig: From Dale (Famous Nicaraguan 7000): 5x50 Prelight - No tingle,slight sweet spice; cinnamon? Slight Barn funk. Round, like it was from a cabinet or SBN cedar box packed loosely. Curious if it was put in cellophane to fool us or just an older cigar that has lost some shape. Oil lines where the cigar was touched by somethign else for an extended period. 1st 3rd - Immediate Earth & citrus sweetness. made me think of a royal Corona then, naturally of a Monte pascal. Little tangy sweetness similar to the Montecristo fruity tang. Overall, despite having the sweet Cuban flavors, the sweetness was more Nicaraguan in how it came across. More zing than Twang. Med Body (3/5) - Med/Strong Strength (3.5/5) Reminds me of the RP 15th at this point but stronger 2nd 3rd - Deepenign up in Flavors & continuing w/ med/high strength (4/5) Slight bready component - Good. Think this might be a blend instead of a Puro. Turning sugary sweet with less deep/dark flavors. The bread, sugar, and accompanying 1942 Tequila make a wonderful cookie flavor. Starts dropping strength back down to ⅗. Estelian sweetness, like Pepin gets out of his balsy Nic flavors. Like a JJ or a Black label 3rd 3rd - Sweet tang; more Esteli-an flavors. Less strength than 1st third, (who did we meet that positions leaves “backward”? Stalk than tip? They mentioned consistant flavor & strength.) This is so different from that idea. But, it behaves as if it was opposite traditional flavor/strength progression. Odd. It should be getting stronger if it was normal & staying the same if it was backward... Overall - Good, too much nicotine for an anytime smoke for me. Finished more to my preferred strength but started w/ more complexity & depth of flavor. Serie JJ? No real idea. From Bob (blended dring a Cigar Tourism trip in 2011): 6-1/8”x51 Parejo Prelight: Barely any wrapper aroma; loads of Saffron & paprika like smoke off of the filler. Very, very unique for a cigar to have this distinct savory spice flavor. Pretty wrapper with a funky cap. I didn’t cut this cigar, I peeled the simple cap off & separated the binder leaf below. Looks a lot like an Equadorian wrapper from the stuff La Aurora puts out but the sizes don’t match their production. 1st Third: Deep, rich flavors; cedary, caramel. Tastes immediately of both Jalapa Nicaraguan tobacco & Olor (?) Dominican. Nice mix of flavors 2nd Third: Sweet creamy depth that has evolved from the Nicaraguan base of initial flavors. Tastes like the sweetness off of a Habano wrapper. Could this be a La Reloba Habano? What happened to the Dominican notes? The appearance continues to shine with oils coming to the surface of this thick wrapper. Almost corojo leathery feel without the appearance. Beautiful veining, color consistency & oils. More sweet flavor now turning tart & tangy like sorbet Final Third: Buttery sweetness from the Creamy 2nd third with a wonderful grain. Still woody but a bit softer in how it comes across. Not as much body as initially and the flavors have gotten a little “easier” on the palate. Full flavored & still complex. I really enjoy this stick. Could it be all Nicaraguan or is there more to it? I would say no stronger than 3 /5 with an equivalent body. Great smoke. La Reloba? No real idea. Palio Cutter Contest: The September winner of a silver Palio cutter is Dan Lawson from Louisana.

Tune in to find out what they are. Cigar of the Week - Buena Vista Limitada Reserva Piramide. This cigar is an Ecuadorian puro. From the web site: For several years we have searched the Western Hemisphere to find the one location that most resembles and replicates the famous Pinar del Rio tobacco-growing region of Cuba. Our research resulted in a small valley located in Ecuador, where the soil content, the daily temperatures, and the atmospheric conditions all combine to deliver a tobacco leaf that we feel mirrors identically, the world’s most desired tobacco — CUBAN. The all new Buena Vista Tobacco Factory is annually producing an extremely limited supply of only 400,000 of its ultra premium cigars for the U.S. market. Buena Vista cigars are produced in nine shapes (also known as vitolas) and premiered as one of the highest quality cigars ever introduced in America. The tobacco for the initial offering of Edicion Limitada was been aged for 3 years, and comes exclusively from our plantation in Ecuador. Comes in 9 sizes: Corona Larga 4 7/8 x 50 Robusto: 5 3/8 x 54 Piramide: 6 1/4 x 52 Sublime: 6 1/2 x 54 Prominentes: 7 x 49 Doble Robusto: 5 5/8 x 52 Corona: 5 1/8 x 46 Petite Piramide: 4 7/8 x 52 Short Churchill: 4 3/8 x 54 What else have you been smokin' Doug? Lou Rodriquez Oliva O Maduro Quesada Oktoberfest What else have you been smokin' Bob? 5 Vegas Limitada 2011 - cedar wrap; great flavors of leather and toasted oats. Nice medium flavor strength; good body to the smoke that just rolls through the air. A real nice smoke. Blue Ribbon bundled cigars - As you know I am not one to regularly smoke low-priced bundled cigars; however, recent events have caused me to take a closer look at the options. These are made by Drew Estate. What's My Band? - The Nestor Miranda Collection Dominicano lancero suggested by Jeff Curtis. Here is Executive Producer Liz's review of the unbanded: I liked this lancero cigar. Before I cut it, I smelled cocoa. After cutting I got a barnyard smell. The 1st puff gave me toast. I had trouble with the draw, it was tight, but Bob had no trouble with his cigar’s draw. As I smoked this cigar, I tasted coffee with a slight bitterness and coffee overtones. I tried retrohaling and got a barnyard flavor, but no spice (which I liked because I hate a nose burn). It ended with more of a cocoa taste. I liked this cigar and would smoke it again. It was a nice change from the mellow cocoa or coffee tastes that I tend to gravitate to. It gave me enough of my flavor favorites to enjoy it, but threw in some twists that were a good change. I also noticed that I finished well ahead of Bob. (I have got to slow down.) Palio Cutter Contest: The September winner of a silver Palio cutter is Dan Lawson from Louisana.

"Our new brand Loyal is dedicated to my father's long standing commitment to provide exceptional quality cigars without breaking the bank. To him cigars were never a far reaching luxury, but one of life's simple pleasures", said Charlie Torano, President, Torano Family Cigars. Loyal will be available in a 5x56 Robusto, a 6 1/8 x52 Torpedo, a 7x47 Churchill, and a 6x60 BFC, all with an MSRP between $4.95-$5.50. Displayed in attractive 21 count boxes, the Loyal blend features fillers from Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic, combined with a Nicaraguan binder and dressed in an oily Ecuadorian Sumatra seed wrapper. Loyal is a solid, medium bodied smoke, that intrigues the palate with a spicy, peppery start and then transitions to a variety of rich flavours with notes of coffee and brown sugar. We Get Mail: DC, a regular in the chat room writes: Hi Bob and Dale I put this up on BOTL forums but thought I would email you and see if you had any insight on the matter. About 2 weeks ago now my dad and I took a trip up to Rockford IL. (Actually he took the trip I just rode along because I knew that the Tinder Box was up by where he was going and we don't have a B&M where I live.) We had a good time and while checking out of said store I picked up a tin of 4 Don Lino Africa Kuros cigars. I always thought the tin was neat and wanted to try the cigar. Well after 2 now all I can say is the things keep falling apart in my mouth. I took a very shallow cut with my Palio on the 1st and the thing practically disintegrated. On the second I used a wedge cutter (a V cut) reckoning that by taking less of the cap the stick my hold up better. It held up, but I was still taking peelings of the wrapper out of my mouth. Are these just bad cigars or is it me? The tin was like 10-14 bucks so I am not exactly thrilled about not getting to smoke the cigars I purchased because they are falling to pieces...literally. I gave 1 away to a friendly mooch at work, so that leaves me with 1 remaining Kuro and I am leaving in the humidor for a minimum of 2 months to see if some time settling out of its tin may help. As for Don Lino? My bad luck with small cigars continues and I think I will stick to the J. Fuego Origin originals.. 1 more cigar in a bigger better style. What else have you been smokin' Dale? Pedro Martin Corojo Robusto - Another Nicaraguan Puro that I just had the pleasure of smoking last Saturday. Thanks to Kris (one of Longmont’s officers in blue) for sharing this with me while we watched the Packers beat the Broncos. Maria Martin left her position as Camacho National Sales Manager & has successfully run Martin Family Cigars in honor of her father, and has so far produced 3 lines of cigars (Gold, Ruby & Corojo) that were blended by Perdo before his passing last year. Wrapped in a Corojo leaf that’s light natural colored, the binder & filler tobaccos of the Corojo line are all Corojo variety as well, lending a full bodied, full flavor character to the line. Leather, cedar and spice are the core flavors. I find some light sweetness in the middle of the cigar. Kris also gets a buttery flavor, the reason he buys these cigars. Very well made with a great draw, this cigar should be sampled by all experienced smokers! J Fuego 777 Maduro Robusto - This line of Nicaraguan Puros from Jesus Fuego’s Tabacos S.A. company is one of those go-to dependable cigars that can be counted on for deep flavor, good construction and a good experience every time. The filler is ⅓ Criollo and ⅔ Corojo, the binder is Corojo and the wrapper is a dark maduro Criollo. The Fuego website says this cigar is bold & spicy, and they do not lie! Add to that the earthiness and light citrus tones, and you’ll find these in my humidor all the time. What else have you been smokin' Bob? A. Fernandez Signature Series from Cigars International - Ok, I admit that I am a fan of AJ Fernandez cigars. This one was picked up by Executive Producer Liz as a sample pack of four sizes sizes, in the A. Fernandez Flight Sampler that provides you with three each of the Robusto (5x50), Toro (6x50), Torpedo (6x52) and the Churchill (7x48). I have only tried the Robusto and Toro so far (like I said, Liz got this sampler so i am dependent on her generosity) and like both. At $30 for the pack a great value and some amazing cigars. Slightly milder than some of the others such as diesel and man o war but very flavorful, leather, roasted grains and slight sweet spice. J Fuego Originals Gran Reserva Corojo No. 1 and Sangre de Toro - Some new blends in the popular paper bagged sizes of approximatley 5x44. SdT has a Colorado wrapper and produces pleasant notes of leather and rich oak with a slight pepper spice. This is like a concentrated larger version. The Gran Reserva is of course a Corojo wrapper with Nicaraguan, Honduran and Costa Rican tobaccos on the inside. Notes of woody coffee and a sweet pepper is a great combination.

Factory: Plascencia Cigars in Esteli, Nicaragua Wrapper: Honduras Connecticut Binder: Nicaragua Filler: Esteli, Condega Comes in 6 sizes: Corona 5.5x42 Robusto: 5x50 Toro: 50x46 Churchill: 48x7 Torpedo: 6.5x52 Gordo: 6x60 What else have you been smokin' Dale? Saint Luis Rey Double Coronas 49 x 194 (7.6”) - It is officially fall now, and I think of smoking Habanos more this time of year then any other. Don’t know why, just seems like the Cuban flavors fit the season. I pulled out this Prominentes vitola to enjoy during a pre-season hockey game. Maybe one of my favorites in this size, the cigar is medium bodied, smooth and quite complex. A mild sweetness is apparent throughout the cigar, complimenting the floral, coffee, leather and other earthy flavors. With rich aromas, a great draw and producing a lot of smoke, this cigar is a fantastic companion when one is looking for a 2 hr mini vacation! Master by Carlos Torano Torpedo 6.25” x 52 - After featuring this cigar recently on DWCR, I can’t get enough of these excellent cigars! I find them medium bodied and full flavored with great balance. The room aroma is magnificent, sweet and rich. On the palette, a myriad of flavors can easily be picked out, and all are savory & delish! Caramel, cedar, cocoa, spice and an occasional whiff of citrus. Very smooth and easy to smoke, but also holds one’s interest. Wrapper is Ecuador Habano, binder is Esteli Nicaraguan and the filler is Esteli & Jalapa Nicaraguan. Add the easy-on-the-wallet price of under $6 and you have a real value cigar! What else have you been smokin' Bob? Kristoff GC Signature Series - This week I was afforded an opportunity to try one of these new smokes from Glenn Case thanks to Tom at Duque Cigars in Indialantic, FL. I was excited to try this smoke because as you may recall, I was a big supporter of his earlier efforts to break into the value priced cigar world with tasteful cigars. Unfortunately, by 2010, the Kristoff line of cigars had become distasteful examples of contract manufacturing. It has been that long since I got the courage to try another Kristoff product. And so it was that I looked forward to this stogie as I sat down to enjoy a fine NFL game. Strangely enough, the cigar and NFL experience were eerily similar in that both suffered from a lack of balance, bad taste and inconsistency. For the NFL, this was exemplified by the Jags vs Carolina game that was a war of the worst and it just hurt to watch such a poor example of professional football. In the case of the GC Signature, the experience began hopefully with smooth flavors of leather, chocolate and sweet spice. By the midpoint however, the flavor had begun to degrade into a rather sour, almost acrid flavor base and although the original flavors of leather and chocolate remained, the sweet spice was replaced by the flavor of slightly over-ripe fruit, verging on rancid. This did not turn out to be a very good cigar, similar to the football being played by Jacksonville and Carolina. Joya de Nicaragua Antano Dark Corojo Doble Fuerte - A full bodied cigar that fits my needs first thing each day with a great cup of coffee. I prefer the Pelogroso (5x44) but have also enjoyed the Azarosa (4.5x52). The cigar comes in 3 other sizes as well: El Martillo (5.5x54), La Pesadilla (4.75x60) and the Poderoso (6x54). This cigar epitomizes the “power” cigar with its rich, deep and dark flavor profile that is not nicotine heavy but still packs a whallop. A creamy Nicaraguan puro that performs magnificently.

You can also send written reviews to theshow@cigarmedia.tv. Cigar of the Week - San Lotano Maduro by A.J. Fernandez. San Lotano is the first line from AJ Fernandez NOT to be sold under someone else's banner. Already well known for blends like Man O War and Diesel, AJ has also built a fabulous reputation making cigars for such brands as Rocky Patel and Esteban Carreras. AJ is a master cigar blender and magnificent roller - I saw him roll a cigar on a board balanced on his knee. He has secured enough farmland to begin producing his own tobacco and that means he can now experiment with different varietals and blends so I expect some outstanding new cigars from him very soon. As a matter of fact, last week on the show Dale raved about the new Man O War Puro Authentico (Liz and I saw pre-release boxes in Nicaragua in January). Dark Side - - No Dark Side this week. What else have you been smokin' Dale? Man O War Puro Authentico 5 x 42 Corona - This a wonderfully full bodied, very full flavored cigar with a superbly balanced dark earthy & spicy character. I hesitate to say how magnificent I think this cigar is for fear they will all sell out before I can buy them up! Rich and satisfying with lots of complex flavors, but not much change in those flavors from front to back. Espresso, hazelnuts, pepper and a touch of vanilla bean are evident throughout the cigar. From the middle on, some sandalwood is more obvious and near the end, some cocoa bean. The cigar is powerful without being over-powering. Gurkha Beauty - 6.5” x56 limited edition - The complimentary cigar to the Gurkha Beast, this behemoth is filled with 5 yr old premium long fillers wrapped in a 7 yr old Ecuadorian grown Connecticut wrapper. Creamy, toasty flavors come across as elegant and refined. Medium bodied, smooth with a heady room aroma. A Conny wrapped cigar I could get behind if it wasn’t so damned big (and pricey). The cigar is packaged in the K. Hansotia style - a large Gurhka band, a second Beauty band over a cedar sleeve, and all resting upright in gold capped glass tubes in a fancy lacquered box. At $695 for a box of 20 (even if there were only 500 boxes made), not a cigar I’ll buy, but one I’d happily smoke if gifted to me again. Punch Rare Corojo 10th Anniversary - The last one from my box, I still think these are good cigars, but not quite up to the regular Rare Corojo line in depth of flavor. Something in the blend just gives me a bit too much of that metallic/astringent component that overtakes the savory flavors, especially in the last half. What else have you been smokin' Bob? Puro Autentico - Allegedly this blend originates from the personal blend of AJ Fernandez himself. I always hesitate when I hear that because the cigar makers that I have spoken with tell me they smoke several different cigars depending on what they may be working on; however, each does have a favorite and I can see why this might be AJ’s favorite smoke. A powerful smoke not unlike the other Man O War selections (and its cousin the Diesel), this cigar makes all of that flavor and power a little more manageable. Using Habano ligero wrapper from Esteli and a filler/binder packed with ligero, this is a cigar that will give “Straight Ligero” a run for its money. EPC Elencos - This is the top of the line from Ernesto Perez Carillo and commands a staggering $11 each. That is really not much in today’s cigar world but compared to the paltry sums required to experience the great Core Line and New Wave Connecticut, the Elencos is a luxury item, but one that all of us can enjoy. The most powerful of the current line, this cigar delivers unique flavors and a mystic experience thanks to its Dominican binder, Nicaraguan filler and Brazilian wrapper. Give yourself the taste of luxury, give yourself an Elencos. Alec Bradley Family Blend M23 7x50 - I smoked through a box of these so fast that I soon forgot how good they were. Then I found one while making room for boxes of Daytona and Oliva G’s from a recent event. Now I want more, again, and then some more and don’t forget I want more. Reasonably priced at a mere $120 per box, you guessed it, I want more. Esencia Belicoso - A flavorful package of well aged tobaccos that exemplify the cigar maker's art. Excellent smoke in a nice-to-handle size that produces voluminous smoke and flavor. What's My Band? - this week's Unbanded Cigar, the Perdomo Lot 23, was suggested by listener Dan Crouch April Palio Cutter Contest Winner: DJ Shalifoe from Big Bay, Michigan, won the Burl Palio Cutter.

You can reach the Herfline at 321-594-4373 - or cigar.radio on Skype. You can also send email to theshow@cigarmedia.tv. Origin of the term HERF: From Cigar Craig, http://cigarcraig.wordpress.com/2009/09/29/the-origin-of-the-word-herf/ Do you have a suggestion for the unbanded cigar of the week? Every week Bob and Dale include an “unbanded cigar” segment in their show in which they smoke a cigar without any markings and give their honest opinions. Bob then opens a sealed envelope and discovers the cigar’s name and manufacturer. If you have suggestions for the "What's My Band?" segment, please send them to liz@cigarmedia.tv. Thanks to Michael Howe for bumpers and special effects in this show. Music provided by the Figurados from their new album, "Lesson Two," and The Surfonics.
