Half Ashed Episode 088: Pipe Smoking Volume 1

What this episode covers

Welcome to Episode 088, our first Pipe Smoking episode! This is Volume One of what will be an occasional feature here on Half Ashed. We spent the first hour going through the process of how you go about readying a flake tobacco for smoking (either rubbed out or folded/stuffed). Admittedly, last night’s show is much better absorbed if you watch the video – but I hope you find some value in the audio as well. We should have another pipe smoking related topic and show lined up in about three months or so. While we realize we are a cigar podcast, we’re total tobacco geeks at heart and since pipe smoking is a big part of my life (Kip), we’d like to include some info here as well. Once we got through the longer-than-imagined pipe smoking content, we did manage to hit a couple of news items. First and foremost the sale of Drew Estate from the past week. We also hit the high spots for some important legislative potentialities and some upcoming Cigar Tourism trips. We didn’t get to a couple of listener emails as we normally would; we will be sure to get them in next week’s show. In the next episode we will be featuring the Cohiba Reserva Media Corona, so be sure to check back in Friday night at 9:30pm EST on halfashed.com where you can catch us recording and participate in the chatroom.
