Our featured guest on tonight’s Pipes Magazine Radio Show is Texas-based artisan pipe maker Ryan McCawley from Smokin’ Barrels Briars. Like many of us, Ryan was attracted to the scent of aromatic tobaccos. Also, like many new pipe smokers, he burned the heck out of his tongue. That was a long time ago. Now he is a regular pipe smoker and he has been making his own pipes for five years now. He started with classic shapes, but now he is more interested in Danish-style freehands. At the top of the show Brian will discuss cake. Not the cake that you eat, but the cake that builds up in your pipe bowl. This is based on a question sent in by a listener.

The show airs every Tuesday at 8:00pm eastern US time, and can be found at PipesMagazine.com and all podcast apps.

Another Great Episode. Ive been follow SBB for awhile and one thing I noticed from his briars is he has an eye for colors. He somehow he can take an unusual stem color and make it compliment the briar perfectly. I've also like what he does with his rounder shapes and accents.
