How do you know you're a pretty big Witcher fan? When you spend over a year of your life bringing it to life! This week, we welcome Lihtar Studio's Edward Kurchevsky to the podcast to discuss the recent animated tribute short he directed based on Andrzej Sapkowski's short story, “A Grain of Truth.” A stylish interpretation of Geralt and his world, the energetic teaser is a labor of love from all involved—and Lihtar's very first project. Over scotch, Edward shares why he and his colleagues decided to launch their studio with The Witcher, what he enjoys most about the franchise and what other memorable Witcher story he'd love a chance to animate. Plus, we discuss European vs. American fandom and whether Geralt should have a beard. (The answer is surprisingly controversial!)

Las Vegas is re-opening -- So are cigar factories and shops. Is it all happening too soon? What is the proper way to cook a hot dog? Should it be grilled? Boiled? The NY Yankees have been accused of stealing signs using modern technology. Do all teams cheat? Zoom and Twitter are being criticized for how they do business. Is that fair? Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts the Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) podcast, presented by Fanimation.com (http://fanimation.com). Today, it's a review of Baker's 7 Year Old Single Barrel bourbon and the La Flor Dominicana Salomon cigar. Louisville ends no-knock warrents. Is this long overdue? Many people in COVID-19 lockdown have jumped into the stock market. Have you become a day trader?

George Floyd was murdered by a police officer in Minneapolis. The video, watched by America, disgusts and frightens rational people. Protests have begun across the nation, demanding action and changes to policing. Protests matter, and protesters should be protected. Rioters - those destroying private property and people's livelihoods - should not be allowed to prosper. But why can't we discuss the possible changes without the nation devolving into right vs. left, black vs. white, Republican vs. Democrat insanity. It's our country...so what's our plan? Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts the Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) podcast, presented by Fanimation.com (http://fanimation.com). Today, it's a review of High West American Prairie bourbon and the Herrera Esteli Maduro cigar. How do the riots and the protests effect the 2020 election? Has Trump's handling of the public outcry hurt him? Can he win people over with a stronger push on "law and order?" Will Joe Biden try and win over the far left by coming out as anti-cop?

President Trump is threatening to move the Republican convention out of North Carolina, saying the Democrat governor is keeping things shut down on purpose. Meanwhile, the people went to the beach over Memorial Day weekend. They went to community pools in the Ozarks. Coronavirus? What coronavirus? The real question is, were they right or wrong to go? Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts the Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) podcast, presented by Fanimation.com (http://fanimation.com). Today, it's a review of Russell's Reserve 10 year bourbon and the Padron 7000 series cigar. Eat! Drink! Smoke! was recorded at Havana Cigar Lounge (http://havanacigarlounge.vip) in Fishers, IN. Would you go to Las Vegas right now? How about New York? And Joe Biden is looking for a VP nominee. Who is leading the pack to get the nod? Joe Rogan signs a deal with Spotify that can net him close to $100 million. What does that say about the future of content, and podcasting?

People in America are divided about lockdowns. Some want to stay ultra-safe from coronavirus, and some want to lick all the doorknobs! Well, not really. It's that some think opening is dangerous and others think staying locked down is dangerous. But even more people are questioning why politicos and media types are so heavily invested in lockdowns: Is there a political win in staying at home? Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts the Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) podcast, presented by Fanimation.com (http://fanimation.com). The podcast was recorded live at Smoker's Choice (http://smokerschoicecigarbar.com) in Brownsburg, IN. It's a review of Jefferson's Very Small Batch bourbon and the La Gloria Cubana Coleccion Reserva Presidente cigar. Over one million Americans identify as ants. Or, at least their Facebook activity says so. How Tony's Rabbi has learned to love cheeseburgers, and how the "New Normal" isn't a real thing.

The coronavirus stay-at-home orders have made people crazy. But for many, it's not the staying at home: It's the hate. Media hates Trump, politicos hate protesters - it's viciousness that can lead many to wonder what the hell happened to their country. Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts the Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) podcast, presented by Fanimation.com (http://fanimation.com). With Fingers Malloy (http://fingersmalloy.com), they review Redneck Riviera American Whiskey and La Aroma De Cuba box press cigar. Coronavirus has people confronting issues with lonliness and depression and panic attacks, but also has families coming together, cooking together and finding new ways to engage. Culturally, America will be changed in many ways....possibly for years to come. A group of guys got into their Mercedes, headed to an empty parking lot and had a cigar. This isn't a problem, this is fantastic! And it can be done without the Mercedes.

Protests over stay-at-home orders are popping up all over America. Why has the issue of re-opening society become so political? What are the true motives of the protestors? Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts the Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) podcast, presented by Fanimation.com (http://fanimation.com). Tony is enjoying a Lito Gomez No7 Small Batch cigar. Fingers Malloy (http://fingersmalloy.com) is trying to smoke an Acid Kuba Kuba cigar from Drew Estate. Their drink - a 41 year old bottle of Seagram's V.O. Yes, Seagram's. Protests over the stay-at-home orders have occurred in states like Michigan, Indiana, Kentucky, Minnesota, North Carolina and Utah. Is this an astroturf movement as some have claimed, or is it an organic reaction to perceived government overreach? How will America change in a post-lockdown world? How will major professional sports leagues like the NFL and MLB move forward? Will Vegas fully recover? These topics are discussed, as well as Nancy Pelosi's fancy kitchen on this episode of Eat! Drink! Smoke! Stay safe. Wash your hands. Smoke cigars.

Lots of governors are showing their power-hungy side during coronavirus, trying to ban near everything and control the movements of everyone. Social distancing is one thing, but what Democratic Governor Gretchen Whitmer of Michigan is doing is just madness. Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts the Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) podcast, presented by Fanimation.com (http://fanimation.com). Tony is on his deck, enjoying Bravo Bourbon from Hotel Whiskey Tango and an Avo Domaine 70 cigar. Fingers Malloy (http://fingersmalloy.com) is on his patio, nursing a Busted Knuckle porter from Quaff On brewing, while enjoying an AJ Fernandez New World. Gov. Whitmer is not only banning travel to one's own property, she has banned the sale of seeds. Yes....like tomato seeds, to grow your own food. When does America decide to open up, and how do we handle these shameful elected officials? Actress Alyssa Milano, who continues to be the activist no one ever asked for, has noticed that more people are buying guns because of coronavirus. She fears this means that people will become insane, and use them in school shootings. Listen to the most amazing straw man argument ever! Stay safe. Wash your hands. Smoke cigars.

Coronavirus continues to dominate the news. And while there are amazing stories of heroism and good works by Americans, media and politicos can't stop the hate. Speaker Pelosi says President Trump is "fiddling" while people die, and he's holding back on providing needed medical equipment. Of course, there is no proof of this. So why say it, other than hate? Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts the Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) podcast, presented by Fanimation.com (http://fanimation.com) For the first time, it's a review of cognac; Courvoisier VS. It is paired with the CLE Prieto box press cigar. Joe Biden has started a podcast, called "Here's The Deal." He's running for president, so why is he acting like a talk show host? And is Tucker Carlson right? Will Biden not last as a candidate? Stay safe. Wash your hands.

With all the coronavirus talk in America, a few things never change: Some people only want to help. Some people only want power. Some people don't even know what's going on. Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts the Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) podcast, presented by Fanimation.com (http://fanimation.com). Today, Tony and Fingers Malloy review Big House Bourbon (on sale for $8.99!!) and the Liga Privada Ratzilla cigar. Also true: many countries lie about how they are being affected. Is China one of them? And actor Jon Cryer from Two and a Half Men has the worst Trump Hate Tweet ever written. And that's saying something! Due to coronavirus, Eat! Drink! Smoke! was recorded in Tony's garage.

Eat! Drink! Smoke! hosts Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) wasn't in a quarantine. Co-Host Fingers Malloy (http://fingersmalloy.com) was in a self-imposed quarantine. Neither one of them had or ahs coronavirus. But after a week of working from home and staying away from work, they both know that the virus is spreading, and the panic is unnecessary. But what's worse than the panic is desire of elected officials to use the crisis to achieve their ideological agenda. Forget your politics: Why is an Illinois mayor using coronavirus as a way to stop gun sales? The Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) podcast is presented by Fanimation.com (http://fanimation.com). They review the Uncle Nearest 1884 Small Batch Whiskey and the Litto Gomez No. 7 cigar. Eat! Drink! Smoke! is recorded live at Blend Bar Cigar (http://blendbarcigar.com) in Indianapolis, IN.

All they did was attend the Conservative Political Action Conference in National Harbor, MD, just next door to Washington DC. Yet one attendee tested positive for coronavirus. They're both fine, but Tony Katz and Fingers Malloy still have to deal with self-quarantine. Seriously. Tony Katz hosts the Eat! Drink! Smoke! podcast, presented by Fanimation.com. Sitting on separate decks, they review the Rocky Patel 2003 Vintage Cameroon cigar, the Davidoff Winston Churchill Late Hour Toro cigar, Old Forester bourbon and a coffee liquor that has Fingers embarrassed about who he is as a man. Yes, they are in self-quarantine. No leaving the house for the rest of the week. They're both calm, but the panic across America is pure madness. And why are people making runs on toilet paper at Costco? Nevermind the inability to find hand sanitzer in any store! Can Americans deal with a problem without manufacturing a crisis, and without losing their minds?

Klobuchar is out. Buttigieg is out. And they both endorsed former VP Joe Biden. So what will be the effect on Super Tuesday? Will the supporters of Pete and Amy go to Biden, or is there another candidate that best fits their wants? Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts the Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://bit.ly/eatdrinksmoke) podcast, presented by Fanimation.com (http://fanimation.com). They also have an in-depth conversation with Jeff Stone from Davidoff about cigars, personal preferences and where the American palate is compared to the rest of the world. Eat! Drink! Smoke! is recorded live at Blend Bar Cigar (http://blendbarcigar.com) in Indianapolis, IN. A video of Michael Bloomberg eating pizza will make you want to puke. Turns out $53 billion may buy you an election, but it can't buy you class. The corona virus hysteria is just that. And the politicizing of corona virus is downright disgusting. In an interview making its way across the internet, celebrity Dr. Drew Pinsky does a brilliant job admonishing media for hyping up the fear. He also explains how in Indiana then- Governor Mike Pence handled the HIV outbreak, and why it wasn't "bungled" or "mismanaged" like media says.

Sen. Bernie Sanders destroyed the field in Nevada, winning the Democratic caucus handily. In response, media has gone crazy. Did they not know he was a socialist, or did they just realize what being a socialist means for the nation? Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts the Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) podcast, presented by Fanimation.com (http://fanimation.com). Today, they review Aberfeldy single malt scotch and the Davidoff 50th Year Diademas Finas. The podcast is recorded live at Blend Bar Cigar (http://blendbarcigar.com) in Indianapolis, IN. Russell Stover, the company that makes the Easter candy you love, has now come out with white fudge bunnies that also taste like blue rasperry. Why would they do such a thing? Fingers Malloy has choice words for Costco, while April D. Gregory has a creepy story about Southwest Airlines. When raising children, what matters most? And how do you raise them to have purpose, or a sense of self, in a maddening PC world?

Former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg is running for president. Actually, he's trying to buy the nomination, spending at least a billion dollars to get there. And he's raised the stakes as his campaign confesses that they'd like Hillary Clinton to join him on the ticket. Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts the Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) podcast, presented by Fanimation.com (http://fanimation.com). Today, they review Diplomatico Ambassador rum and the Davidoff Nicaragua box press. The podcast is recorded live at Blend Bar Cigar (http://blendbarcigar.com) in Indianapolis, IN. Another lawmaker, this time in Alabama, has decided to propse legislation that would limit the ability for men to obtain Viagra as a way to stand up for abortion rights. This comes up every year or so, and everytime it comes up it's a reminder that women who advocate for this position are not feminists. But high school girls in Connecticut are suing the state to ensure that transgender students cannot compete against them in sporting events, because it's unfair. These girls are standing up for themselves, and one has to ask how soon will they be attacked for not being "woke" enough?

NBA legend Kobe Byrant was killed in a helicopter crash, along with his 13 year-old daughter, Gianna, and seven other people. It's a horrible story about a life taken too soon, and it's also a moment when craven people do their worst on social media. Tony Katz (http://tonykatz.com) hosts the Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) podcast, presented by Backbone Bourbon (http://backbonebourbon.com) and Fanimation.com (http://fanimation.com). Today, they review Bulleit bourbon and the La Flor Dominicana TCFKA M cigar. Joe Rogan used his highly popular podcast to say he would vote for Sen. Bernie Sanders because of how consistent he's been over the years. The problem, according to Tony, is that Bernie's been consistenly wrong. Should you have fear of Coronavirus, or is the media just fear mongering for clicks? And does anyone believe that the Chinese government is telling the truth about how many people are infected? Eat! Drink! Smoke! is recorded live at Blend Bar Cigar (http://blendbarcigar.com) in Indianapolis, IN

War with Iran is not what anyone wants, but siding with Iran is downright insane! So why, after the killing of terrorist Qassem Soleimani, are there so many Democrats in the US who want to blame President Trump for bringing us to war and shooting down a Ukranian airliner? Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts the Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) podcast, presented by Fanimation.com (http://fanimation.com) and BackboneBourbon.com (http://backbonebourbon.com). Eat! Drink! Smoke! is recorded live at Blend Bar Cigar (http://blendbarcigar.com) in Indianapolis, IN. On today's show they review Stagg Jr. bourbon and the Diamond Crown Maximus cigar. Iran has admitted that they shot down the plane, and the people in Iran are protesting aggressively. But politics is overriding reason, and that leads to politicos, for political purposes, abandoning reason. It's all really ugly. Speaking of ugly, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have left the Royal Family. Well, they didn't "leave." They still want the money, and they're keeping the titles so they can monetize them and build themselves into a global brand.

All of America is talking about how Ricky Gervais exposed the hypocrisy of Hollywood when he hosted the Golden Globe awards. And, right on cue, the political right loves him and the political left hates him. But can you call what he did brave? Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts the Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) podcast, presented by Fanimation.com (http://fanimation.com) and Backbone Bourbon (http://backbonebourbon.com). The podcast is recorded live at Blend Bar Cigar (http://blendbarcigar.com) in Indianapolis, IN. Today they review the Parker's Heritage Rye and the Davidoff Series702 Special T cigar. Politicos are up in arms over President Trump's decision to kill Iranian General and terrorist Qasem Soleimani. But that doesn't mean they are right. Fingers Malloy (http://fingersmalloy.com) and April D. Gregory (http://twitter.com/aprildgregory) are thinking about joining a gym as 2020 begins, but who's willing to pay $70 a month? And Oreo put out a bunch of new flavors in 2019. We go through the list and see what we would try.

A man with a machete attacked Jews at a synagogue in New York. A man in Texas shoots two people in a church before being shot by the security officer. Why aren't more people armed when they go to their place of worship? And what are the best guns to carry to church? Tony Katz hosts Eat! Drink! Smoke!, presented by Fanimation.com and Backbone Bourbon. The podcast is recorded live at Blend Bar Cigar in Indianapolis, IN. On this episode, it's a review of Widow Jane bourbon and the Headley Grange Chamuco cigar. Yes, Americans should be armed in their place of worship. And, no, anti-Semitism is not on the rise because of President Donald Trump. A new poll, however, shows that both Trump and former President Barack Obama are the most admired men by Americans. The list of admired women is topped by Michelle Obama. Fingers Malloy went to another casino, and this time he was accosted by a three year old.

The End of the Year wrap brings the our choices for the best bourbon and cigars of 2019! Fingers Malloy, April D. Gregory and Tony Katz each picked from all of the cigars and bourbon reviewed this year. Well, Tony and Fingers did. April went completely off task but still made some great choices. Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts the Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) Podcast, presented by Fanimation.com (http://fanimation.com) and Backbone Bourbon (http://backbonebourbon.com). The podcast is recorded live at Blend Bar Cigar (http://backbonebourbon.com) in Indianapolis, IN. Impeachment has happened, and no one thinks it will do anything to change a voter's mind in 2020. Pete Buttigieg's slam on Indiana in the Democratic Debate did not sit well with anyone. And Fingers is buying a minivan, and he's pretty sure his life is over. The Winners: Fingers - The Nat Sherman Timeless and The Old Granddad 114 April - The God of Fire Serie B Double Robusto and champagne (She doesn't really care which champagne, just bring her more of it!) Tony - The Davidoff Royal Salamones and the Pikesville Rye

No one is losing weight during the holidays. It's a ridiculous idea that only ridiculous people would even attempts. But if you want to try, here are the top five weight loss tips for the holidays. Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts the Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) podcast, presented by Backbone Bourbon (http://backbonebourbon.com) and Fanimation (http://fanimation.com). The podcast is recorded live at Blend Bar Cigar (http://blendbarcigar.com) in Indianpolis, IN. It's a shortened podcast this week because the holidays make timing near impossible. But if you need a good gift idea, here are great bourbons under $25 that make an amazing gift.

The female reporter slapped in the butt by a runner going by was rightfully angry, and the runner was definitely wrong. But should he be fired from his job and his life ruined from one stupid move? Would it change your mind if he was also a youth pastor? Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts the Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) podcast, presented by Fanimation.com (http://fanimation.com) and Backbone Bourbon (http://backbonebourbon.com). The podcast is recorded live at Blend Bar Cigar (http://blendbarcigar.com) in Indianapolis, IN They review the Nikka Coffey Malt Whiskey and the La Coalicion cigar from Drew Estates and Crowned Heads. The podcast starts with Fingers Malloy, fresh off his 72 hours in Florida, complaining - loudly - that the "Happiest Place On Earth" is anything but. Yes, impeachment will happen. No, President Trump will not be removed from office. And, no, none of it will affect the outcome of the 2020 election. Tony has had success with intermittent fasting, but he's had more success with not accepting what convential wisdom tells us about weight loss and health.

Pete Davidson is known for being a jerk on Saturday Night Live and dating women who are way too good looking for him. Now, he wants audience members to sign a non-disclosure form before seeing his comedy act. If they talk about it on social media? He'll sue them for $1 million. Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts the Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) podcast, presented by Backbone Bourbon (http://backbonebourbon.com) and Fanimation (http://fanimation.com). The podcast is recorded live at Blend Bar Cigar (http://blendbarcigar.com) in Indianapolis, IN. The term porch pirate refers to people who steal packages from your front porch. The term is way too cutsey....they're theives! But wait til you find out which city has the biggest issue with them! We were shocked, too.

Former VP Joe Biden leads all Democrats in the race for president. But he can't speak more than four sentences without falling apart, he tells insane stories about "Corn Pop," he sniffs and smells young children and gives inappropriate backrubs to women. Now, he's telling stories about his blonde leg hair and is "nibbling" his wife's finger on stage. And he LEADS all Democrats running for President. What kind of "malarkey" is this? Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts the Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) podcast, presented by Fanimation (http://fanimation.com) and Backbone Bourbon (http://backbonebourbon.com). Today, it's a review of Old Pogue Master Select bourbon and the Avo Domaine 50 cigar. The podcast is recorded live at Blend Bar Cigar (http://blendbarcigar.com) in Indianapolis, IN. Way too many Americans think the job of you and me is to provide for them. Bernie Sanders likes his place in the gimp box. And the Vagina Museum has opened in London, shocking absolutely no one.

Thanksgiving is not a time to worry about your waist. Yet time and again, and year after year, people and news groups and no good do-gooders think that a holiday based around delicious and carb-filled foods is a time to make feel people guilty about enjoying them. Nonsense! Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts the Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) podcast, presented by Fanimation.com (http://fanimation.com) and Backbone Bourbon (http://backbonebourbon.com). The podcast is recorded live at Blend Bar Cigar (http://blendbarcigar.com) in Indianapolis, IN.

"You should not go to holiday dinners where they hate you, just because they are family." That's Tony's advice for Thanksgiving, and every holiday meal. And why does anyone feel the need to get political at family events? And it turns out Tony is no fan of the Rob Roy. But he might be a fan of the Elon Musk "CyberTruck." Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) presented by Backbone Bourbon (http://backbonebourbon.com) and Fanimation (http://fanimation.com). They review the Rob Roy, and the Davidoff Nicaragua figurado cigar. So-called "protesters" stormed the field of a Harvard-Yale football game during halftime because of climate change. It's always nice to see woke trust fund babies try and prove their worth while not changing any minds at all. Colin Kaepernick is not interested in playing in the NFL, and his "try out" was nothing more than theater. Elon Musk unveils the "CyberTruck" to scorn and laughter. Now he claims he has 146,000 buyers and counting. Eat! Drink! Smoke! is recorded live at Blend Bar Cigar (http://blendbarcigar.com) in Indianapolis, IN.

Old people are using the blood of young people to feel younger....and it's not an episode of Black Mirror. It also costs $8,000. Maybe it will help Fingers Malloy (http://fingersmalloy.com) better handle his 3 day gambling benders in Vegas! Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts the Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) podcast, presented by Backbone Bourbon (http://backbonebourbon.com) and Fanimation (http://fanimation.com). A company in California is claiming to cure what ails you with the plasma of young folks. The FDA says it does nothing, but that hasn't stopped the company from offering up the sweet juice. Week one of the impeachment inquiry is in the books, and America is not moved in any way. But why are members of Congress so worried about the feelings of former Ambassador Marie Yavonovich? She didn't hear the phone call...she says President Trump was never involved in bribery. But if you ask Rep. Adam Schiff, what matters most is how Trump made her feel. Yes, Fingers Malloy loves Las Vegas in an almost improper way. Now, he brings his Vegas tips and tricks to all of us so everyone can have the Fingers Malloy experience! Eat! Drink! Smoke! is recorded live (most times) at Blend Bar Cigar in Indianapolis, IN.

ABC News quashed a story about child sex predator Jeffrey Epstein, and when video from an anchor got leaked complaining about it, they hunted down the producer who leaked the video and fired her. One problem: she didn't leak the video. Another problem: No news organizations are talking about Jeffrey Epstein. Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts the Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) podcast, presented by Backbone Bourbon (http://backbonebourbon.com) and Fanimation (http://fanimation.com). Today, it's a review of the Grand Cru paring: The Glenfiddich Grand Cru scotch and the Davidoff Grand Cru Robusto. (Yes, we reviewed the Davidoff Grand Cru toro just an episode or two ago. But, Blend Bar Cigar - where we record - asked us to try the pairing. We were happy to oblige!) Impeachment is here...and it's pretty clear that the hearings aren't going to bring America any closure. But that's not the plan. The plan on trying to oust President Trump has been in effect for three years. Not because we say so, but because they say so. The CDC has found what they say is the culprit that has led to illness and death in some vaping cases, but the people desperate to ban vaping aren't paying attention to the science. Eat! Drink! Smoke! is recorded live at Blend Bar Cigar (http://blendbarcigar.com) in Indianapolis, IN.

Why people hate FOX News commentator Tomi Lahren is a mystery. But when it was learned she has a $50,000 engagement ring, the hate resurfaced yet again. But the story isn't the ring; the story is why are they paying $50K, and why do people who can't afford things buy things they can't afford? Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts the Eat! Drink! Smoke! (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/eat-drink-smoke/id1439697678) podcast, presented by Fanimation (http://fanimation.com) and Backbone Bourbon (http://backbonebourbon.com). Today, it's a review of the Glenmorangie Nectar D'Or (yes...SCOTCH!) and the Davidoff Grand Cru Toro cigar. Trevor Noah, host of the Daily Show on Comedy Central, does an interview with Hillary Clinton where they joke about child sex trafficker and predator Jeffrey Epstein. Hilarious, right? John Legend re-writes the lyrics to 'Baby It's Cold Outside' and records it with Kelly Clarkson. The problem with this level of woke is that it's clear that Legend didn't care about the history of the song - and that it is NOT a rape song. Rather, he saw an opportunity to market to his fans by lying about a song that won an Oscar in 1949. Eat! Drink! Smoke! is recorded live at Blend Bar Cigar (http://blendbarcigar.com) in Indianapolis, IN.

Nothing at all against Flint, MI, but it is not a retirement destination. They've gone through a lot in Flint, and we hope they get it figured out. But no one is going there to play out the golden years of their life. Really...is anyone going to Michigan to do that? Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts the Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) podcast, presented by Fanimation (http://fanimation.com) and Backbone Bourbon (http://backbonebourbon.com). A list of baset places to retire has the usual Florida spots, but also has some recommendation in some spots you'd find almost impossible to beleive. Different strokes for different folks, but this list can't possibly be real. Can it? Eat! Drink! Smoke! is recorded live at Blend Bar Cigar (http://blendbarcigar.com) in Indianapolis, IN

A website has come up with 10 health benefits of whiskey. For the record, neither Tony nor Fingers are doctors, and they can not be held responsible if you don't take care of yourself. Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts the Eat! Drink! Smoke!

US Special Forces killed ISIS leader al-Baghdadi. This, by every measure, is a good thing. ISIS is evil, they are murderers and they must be fought until their horiffic and violent ideology is gone from the Earth.

Houston Rockets GM Daryl Morey tweeted his support of Hong Kong. Then, he deleted it. Too late.

Were they just waiting for an opportunity to show how "woke" they were? And what about the reality that many who got ill were buying their flavors from black markets? A review of the Henry McKenna 10-year "Bottled In Bond" bourbon and the Davidoff Complexion toro cigar. A man acts up on a plane; hitting seats, smoking and yelling, "You're all screwed!" from the bathroom. How is it possible that those flying with him didn't demand he quiet down...or physically restrain him? A mom in the UK was sneaking her obese child fast food even while he was in the hospital fighting for his life.

Presidential candidate Andrew Yang tried to buy the votes of Americans on the debate stage in Houston. And then, he made a joke about Asians and doctors. Some call him a racist....is that possible?

The New York Times is obsessed with Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh. They have two reporters who claim that another woman say she was sexually mistreated by Kavanaugh at Yale University. But the incident in question - based on the woman's statement through friends - never happened. Why the continued lying about Justice Kavanaugh? Why is the Times, and the Democratic Party, working so hard - still! - to discredit him. This time, seemigly, with outright lies? Tony Katz hosts Eat! Drink!

Are Hollywood leftists actively working to keep conservatives out of the business? It's a subject of debate, but when Debra Messing and Eric McCormack called for a list of Trump supporters in Beverly Hills to be published, the debate became a lot more one-sided. Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) presented by Fanimation.com (http://fanimation.com). Tony, Fingers Mallloy and April D. Gregory take a deep dive into the hate, and how Hollywood really has a penchant for control of others. So much of this is about how politics have grown hate, and the hate too many have for President Trump. Tony talks about how the politics got in the way of his own religious journey, and how he walked away from - and returned to - Judaism. The podcast is normally recorded at Blend Bar Cigar (http://blendbarcigar.com). This episode was recorded on Tony's backyard deck.

Dave Chappelle, in his latest comedy special 'Sticks and Stones,' directs a good amount of focus at those people - the 'Woke' - who want to tell the rest of us how to live, and who want to destroy those who they think have done a wrong.

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck has retired. At 29. With millions in the bank. He says the injuries have gotten to him, and he is 'mentally worn down.' Many people are mentally worn down, but don't have the luxury of big bank account to stop working. How will his answer be taken by fans, and the NFL? Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) presented by Fanimation.com (http://fanimation.com). With Fingers Malloy and April D. Gregory, they review the Yaziki 10-year single malt whiskey and the 7x50 Sobremesa cigar. Luck's retirement is about more than football injuries; it's part of a growing trend of players who have decided to hang it up early. Is this the new way for millennials, who have a much different view of culture than older generations? And what does this mean for the NFL; will they continue to invest millions in players who leave in their prime, preventing the league from benefitting from their investments?

In the span of 72 hours, Democratic Reps. Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar went from being denied access into Israel to being shown as hating Israel so much that one of them, Rep. Tlaib, was willing to throw her own grandmother under the bus. Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) presented by Fanimation.com (http://fanimation.com). Why didn't Reps. Tlaib and Omar go with the rest of the Congressional delegation? Why did they accept funding from an organization that has vocally supported terrorism in Israel? And why did the media spin the facts - or simply fail to report them? Chick-Fil-A now has mac and cheese. Tony, Fingers Malloy and April D. Gregory give the definitive review. They also reviewed the Bardstown Bourbon Company Phifer Pavitt Reserve Bourbon and the Diamond Crown Figurado #6 cigar.

In New York, cops are getting drenched with water by the citizens. It's not cute or playful; it's an attack. In some cases, people are filiming the officers while throwing water on them, goading the cops into responding. There are already laws about assault, says Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio). But what's happening here is far beyond on legal reasoning. On the Eat! Drink! Smoke!

Gregory discuss all the ways this new trend causes problem for society. Eat! Drink! Smoke! is recorded live at Blend Bar Cigar (http://blendbarcigar.com) in Indianapolis, IN.

If we listen to the media, America seems to want changes to gun laws in America. But does the 'Do Something' crowd really know what it wants? On the Eat! Drink! Smoke!

Is there a place for Red Flag laws, and is so bad to have a conversation about them? Also, Tony challenges the notion of 'Do Something,' and explains what he is already doing. Monica Lewinsky is producing the latest American Crime Story, which will dig in on the events leading up to the impeachment of former President Bill Clinton.

The star of Grey's Anatomy, Ellen Pompeo, did what many Americans do: she voiced her thoughts about the Democratic Debate on Twitter. But it wasn't laudatory of presidential candidate Sen. Kamala Harris. So, Twitter called her a racist. Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts the Snack Size edition of Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) presented by Fanimation.com (http://fanimation.com). Now, so we're clear, nothing that Pompeo said was racist. Not a single word. Pompeo simply thought that Harris' strategy of going after former VP Joe Biden was problematic....specifically, she called the strategy a case of Harris being "overconfident." Pompeo's tweet wasn't racist, and Pompeo's analysis wasn't accurate. Eat! Drink! Smoke! is recorded live at Blend Bar Cigar (http://blandbarcigar.com) in Indianapolis, IN.

What kind of candidate do the Democrats want? If they nominate a Progressive will America vote for them? If they nominate a moderate, will the Democratic party vote for them? Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) presented by Fanimation.com (http://fanimation.com). The debates left everyone with a comment, and with more questions about who the nominee will be than answers. Tony, Fingers Malloy (http://facebook.com/fingersmalloyradio) and April D. Gregory (http://twitter.com/aprildgregory) discuss CNN and Playboy reporter Brian Karem, who was suspended from the White House for 30 days. This isn't a story of Trump and the administration laying a smackdown on a reporter they don't like. No, this is about how Karem acted at the White House...including threatening a guest of the President. They review the Old Granddad 114 bourbon and the Davidoff Bellicoso "Special B" cigar, which can only be found (we believe) at Blend Bar Cigar locations across the country.

The President tweeted about Dem Rep. Elijah Cummings and Baltimore. The media and fellow Democrats screamed racism. But is it? Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke), presented by Fanimation.com (http://fanimation.com). The President often tweets in ways that ride the edge of acceptability. But is the issue here what he said, or that he called out Rep. Cummings - a black Democrat and civil rights icon - for the failures of the city he represents.

OK. What the hell is "white Twitter?" According to multiple sources, "white Twitter" is in uproar because a black woman has been cast as Ariel in the live-action version of "The Little Mermaid."

California deals with earthquakes, and will the US Women's National Soccer Team go to the White House now that they've won the World Cup? Or will it be better for them (and Megan Rapinoe) to just be angry and say no?

The NRA dropped NRA TV. And it has made big news.

US Women's National Team co-captain Megan Rapinoe was not wrong to stand at attention during the national anthem. But she was wrong to say she wouldn't go to the "f_ing" White House. And she was also wrong to accept an invitation from Rep. Ocasio-Cortez. Is grilling a man's job? And was Rep. Tulsi Gabbard the most Googled candidate from the Democratic debates because she was the most attractive? A Chick-Fil-A employee saved the life of a child in the drive-thru lane, thanks to a pocket knife. Also, America prefers cold pizza to, well, just about everything.

The cigar was not the rye; the Fuente is a fantastic mix of creamy and spice with a Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade wrapper. (Our cigar expert Richard from Blend referred to it as a Colorado wrapper.) With nearing 1,000 measels cases now in America, is there an argument to be made for forcing vaccinations? And can schools keep your kids out because they don't have the vaccine? Restaurant workers have good reason to be angry with Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who is pushing to end the lower minimum wage for the hospitality industry. Coke is continuing its retro feel, and brinigng back coffee-infused Coke. And Lamar Odom claims he spent $100 million on drugs. We say BS. Eat! Drink!

"I think he asked me to punch him?" - April D. Gregory (http://twitter.com/aprildgregory) That's how April described a moment that occured during a game of beer pong. But she's not so sure what really happened...and her trying to piece it together is amazing! Tony Katz (http://facebook.com/tonykatzradio) hosts Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) Just because a bourbon is a high proof doesn't mean it won't be enjoyable. The uncut and unfiltered bourbon from Blend Bar Cigar Private Label bourbon is 120.8 proof. April and Fingers Malloy (http://facebook.com/fingersmalloyradio) are in love.

NOTE In the podcast, Tony refers to the number of colonists who favored revolution as 3%. The number he should have used was 1/3rd, which is a contested figure - https://historynewsnetwork.org/article/5641. The 3% number comes from a myth about the percentage of colonists who served in the militia - https://observer.com/2017/07/soldiers-militia-american-revolution/ We always try to correct the record when we notice an error. We usually blame the bourbon.

It seems that #MeToo has backfired.

Democratic senator and presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren rebuked an invitation from FOX News to participate in a town hall. Was this the right move - a chance to show her left-leaning base that she is strong against the "enemy" - or did she miss a chance to be on the biggest cable news network in America and possibly find new voters?

The Mueller Report has been released. Everyone has a hot take, and Tony Katz needs to take a step back: "The media told us this was all about collusion. And, now, all anyone in media is talking about is obstruction of justice. Can we discuss the first part first? America got told for over two years there was collusion, and there was no collusion. What the hell?" Tony host the latest Eat! Drink! Smoke! (http://facebook.com/eatdrinksmoke) podccast, recorded live at Blend Bar Cigar (http://blendbarcigar.com) in Indianapolis, IN.

Is Julian Assange a criminal or a hero? It really does depend on how you ask. Maybe the better question is, did Julian Assange break the law? And who is worse - Assange or criminal Chelsea Manning? (Spoiler: It's Manning.) And maybe there's an even bigger question hanging over the Assange arrest: Do American even care about this story? Tony Katz hosts Eat! Drink! Smoke!

Jussie Smollett gets away with a hoax. At least, that's the feeling of most Americans. Yet, the NAACP is still welcoming him to the awards ceremony they are holding where he is up for an image award. But it's not just the hoax from Smollett that has people angry.
