Our... Well MY Chicago Show recap, and a bit on Burley & Karo!

Chicago talk... just SUCH a great show! as we sit back, smoke and talk about the new "Eight State" burley.... along with some other nonsense and ramblings

Lots to catch up on... the last 2 months tobaccos and the new Chicago show blends! Pipes, our Universe & Everything else that's not important! Sit back for 7 hours of nonsense... 

Bo and I just hitting all sorts of topics... from the C&D's Summit series and Firebird... to Tastes of aged blends and our tastes on pipes and  finishes... YES BOWL COATS!  So Happy V-Day, Love it or hate it... No facts only opinions.

In this part Deux! We talked all the tobaccos of 2025, which was such a great year.. things we'd like in 2026... All the in's and coming up's of the IG Pipe Makers Club... (1st come, 1st in) OUR definition of "Magic Pipes" AND so much random pipe community misbehavings, by us!  

We crammed in just over an hour... 2 hours worth a nonsense! The 6 new tobacco blends released this month... The all about's of the IG VPS...  And ran the numbers on available belnds... Still dispelling the FOMO some newer pipe smokers may feel.

On this Halloween episode, Bo and I talk about pipes, pipe making and the artistry within hte next generation... Along with the discovery of older blends...  Having a CELLAR of tobacco is a great thing, but not always... if you don't know what you have!

Some CRF+P talk, pipe shapes and sizes... and national elephant appreciation day!  What we're smoking and what we're enjoying... Just a random episode.

Join Bo & I as we discuss tobacco "WHAT IF'S" Try and distinguish between EDC and Workhorse pipes and is pipe smoking a hobby, lifestyle... OR BOTH! We also figured out... which came first the chicken or the egg!

The art and virtue of PATIENCE... whether with a new pipe, tobacco or cigar... Give whatever it is the patience and respect it deserves... so you can fully enjoy it the way it's meant to be experienced.

After a short break and then some technical plaques... WE ARE BACK! New pipes, old pipes, new tobaccos, old tobaccos... LIFE with pipes, tobaccos & cigars... Just a good time (for Bo & I at least) So enjoy...
