I’ve been making my way through the past episodes and it’s been really interesting to hear these old interviews. I thought it’d be nice to have an active thread where people can comment on older episodes they’re listening to or to recommend some of the past episodes.
A few of my recent-listened-to favorites:
Ep. 21: Marty Pulvers was an absolute hoot. I would’ve loved to visit his shop.
Ep. 36: I didn’t realize Marco of Novelli worked that closely with Castello. I found out about their online store just earlier this year so it was a pleasant surprise to hear him on the show. As someone who’s just started to have an interest in Castello I found this very informative.
Ep. 37: Fred Hanna was so pleasant and informative and I loved the joy that he had both in the topic of nicotine and the banter with Brian. Fred seems like he would be just a delight to share a bowl with.
Ep. 38: Tokutomi was so charming even through a translator. I could really understand what Brian meant when he said Tokutomi was very humble. Also, how can you not love a bluegrass playing pipe carving master. And hearing about the family business taking off was just heartwarming. I still don’t think I’ll ever own a Tokutomi (not because I don’t desire one) but I hope he and his family’s carving legacy continues to many more generations.
Ep. 39: I’m grateful for guys like Paul Creasy fighting on our behalf and educating the policy makers about how they could inadvertently harm or destroy the pipe industry. I love his jolly banter with Brian and like Fred, seemed like he would be a delight to share a bowl with.
Anyway, share some of your thoughts on the oldies!
