    Joe Lankford passing. RIP

    I just saw he passed. His blends were a great source of pleasure for me. Of all the famous names I know, he’s one of the few that I know what they did. What a legacy.

    FlatCapPiper & LadyFire on Radio Show of August 30, 2022

    Hey Brian- it’s been awhile since I’ve commented, but I do listen weekly. Your guests this week were a lot of fun to listen in on. I’m sorry to hear they live somewhere smoking is forbidden. I think it’s great they have a hobby to share though. I’m going to check their YouTube. My wife actually...

    In-house Pipes from Iconic Shops

    I have a few shops’ pipes. L.J Peretti has some good ones, though they lost the stamp to put their name on them. They can be affordable, but not for quality pieces in my experience. Collectible? Absolutely, go for it.

    The Capitaland Pipe Show in Albany, NY

    Oh wow. I may try to get up there. I turn 40 on the 6th, so it’d be a nice birthday event for me.

    Corn Cob Break In

    In my experience, they don’t really have a break in. They smoke well off the rip. They do however, sometimes need a little fine tuning around the airway with a knife. Can’t beat ‘em otherwise. I recently put the higher end C&D bent stem on a bent legend bowl, and it awesome. Much better weight...

    What Cigar are You Smoking? - 2022

    I had an avanti ammezzetto with my coffee this morning. Great little cigar for keeping the flies at bay lol

    The Sound of a Zippo

    I would imagine overstuffing the wadding would not let it hold as much in the first place. It is packed in there pretty solid though. When I get one I take them apart anyway. I like to weave the wick through the layers of wadding, it seems to last longer that way. And I remove some of the...

    Jim's Revised Prince Albert Review.

    Now that I’ve had to process your review update, I think it sounds like it may be a bit better blend overall, for my taste, than it was before. However it sounds like a different animal in many ways. I would like to think they didn’t make it too different. Of course, my taste isn’t incredibly...

    Jim's Revised Prince Albert Review.

    I was unaware there was a change. When did this happen? I just got a new can a few weeks ago, and it seemed the same to me. It disappeared for awhile a year ago maybe, and I had to search high and low for it. I didn’t notice a change when it came back online though. On a side note- 9/10 tobacco...

    The Sound of a Zippo

    I finally broke down and got my first pipe insert zippo a week ago. The new C&D model on smoking pipes. It’s fantastic. No rim charring, and got the hang of it pretty quickly. It’s basically a wind proof match as far as I can tell. And far more functional than my nimrod lighter.

    Fred Hanna on Radio Show of June 14, 2022

    A fine conclusion to the Fred talk series. It shines through how good of friends you are. I always like your gift guide bits, but trying to get that through on my wife’s end is unlikely. She did get me a decent bottle of whiskey for Father’s Day though.

    Father's Day?

    My wife got me a bottle of Knobel Tennessee whiskey, from the Mike Rowe foundation.

    Pipe Rotation

    I usually take two pipes with me when I leave for the day, and probably smoke ten bowls before I get home. They get shifted through my large pipe rack and probably won’t get smoked again for a week. I have others I only smoke at home. As far as I can tell, you can smoke a pipe pretty heavily day...

    Fred Janusek & Jeremy Reeves on Radio Show of June 7, 2022

    I’m really enjoying the continuing saga here, this man is a wealth of experience in the pipe world. Also, his story of the uncomfortably long man-hug from a stranger in a random hotel room had me laughing for a few days. Great stuff.

    Chicago & Las Vegas Pipe Shows Discussed on Tonight's Pipes Magazine Radio Show

    The pipe show report makes it sound like a lot of fun and friendship all around. I’d love to get out to one some day. Vegas sounds very interesting later this year, and I’m glad you’re taking the privilege/responsibility of running it. I’d say you are just the man for the job.

    Oooh, I'm giddy!

    What sort of boots? I wear them for a living, so my curiosity is humming right now lol.
