Makes me crave for something I've never tried. If my mother complains about cigar smoke, I'll show her this video. Any sensible person would understand.
Also, gotta love that you have one of the leaders of the modern conservative movement on your political late-night show to talk exclusively about cigars. Kinda refreshing not hearing about Stormy Daniels for a single day.
Dennis Pregger just made a fool of himself for no reason even as he admitted an emotional response. Thank you Crowder for pushing back, but I wish you had made the point that pot smokers just want to be left alone as well.
Alex Boor Hey dumbass, if there’s a war on tobacco then it automatically means there’s a war on cigars. Cigars are made 100% of tobacco. No tobacco no cigars. If someone waged a war on America wouldn’t you say there’s a war on Caucasian-Americans since they are apart of America and will be bastardized the same way?
We all got politicized in the run up to the 2016 American elections mate,even here in Australia.Not all of us,but many of us.You called it out mate,check your youtube feed,i bet its full of politics and a whole heap of conservatives owning sjw's with a mix of fox and joe rogan with a dash of mouthy Buddha followed on by a bite sized piece of gavin mguinnes accompanied with an entree serve of P,pie(just for the memes).
BR33CH HD Incorrect. “ALL about Cigars” means this episode is just about cigars and only cigars. Not that they covered everything about cigars. Otherwise the episode would have been called “Everything about Cigars”
My dad took me to get a cigar on my 18th birthday . It was one of the coolest feelings to sit with my dad and smoke that cigar. It is one memory I will never forget. And he and my brother and I still smoke cigars together.
I mean they're talking about cigar people who hang out at cigar lounges in America and cigar smokers in America does Castro or che guevara hang out at American cigar lounges much less ever show up at an American cigar lounge? Yeah probably not, are they American NO!!! 🤦
juma lauta has a cheaper Cuban guantanamera christley or something like that. I ordered a few decent different cigars online. Romeo julietta reserve is one of them
I had COVID over Christmas. 3 days feeling like shit and hardly breathing, and then I smoked a cigar because I was miserable. I sucked down a A.J. Fernandez and was almost totally recovered. My throat dried up and I could breath again and my fever broke that night. Felt great afterwards. LOL crazy for modern minds but true story!
As a cigar shop owner, I appreciate you shedding a light on the cigar/pipe world. You guys are spot on with the explanation of cigar culture. Many problems we face in the world today have already been solved in cigar lounges. I'd like to hear Dennis' reaction to trying his first retrohale haha.... If you happen to be in Columbus, Ohio you're always welcome at Tinder Box Dublin! Bring some stogies to an Ohio State 'change my mind' segment and trigger some libs.
I’m 19 and wanna smoke cigars. I’ve always said mainly to myself when I think of it I have an old soul in a modern age. I’m thankful for it and can’t wait to do it. I’ve learned a lot in the past few days such as Lancero, toro, torpedo, Churchill, Robusto, Gordo. I know how to cut, different cuts, light them, smoke them. I like the professional look plus I hear it boost your testosterone. I’ve been motivated to lose weight which I lost 24 pounds, wear suits when I get fit, keep my hair looking good. I can’t wait and also drink whiskey. Also part of the cigar there are usually 1 cap, double cap, triple cap. The body, foot, head or cap. Maybe one day I might visit your cigar shop. Have a blessed day
Here's the story of Cuban cigars, from a cuban: When Castro took over, the good cigar makers left Cuba and went to Florida and central America. The cigar makers left in Cuba were nationalized and then run by people who either had never worked in the industry or were the lower end makers. E.g. Gilberto Oliva (Oliva Cigars. Try the Serie G for milder+ Cameroon wrapper and Serie V for stronger + Ecuadorian wrapper) left Cuba after the communists took over, and travelled across central america until he settled in Nicaragua and picked his trade back up. He passed in 2017 and his family is still making amazing cigars today. Communism killed the Cuban cigar industry.
Since people are getting their panties in a twist over the whole “no war on marijuana” thing, I’m pretty sure he meant the cultural attitude toward cigars now quite a bit more negative then towards marijuana. Which nowadays is 100% true, it wasn’t always that way but today it is and if you refuse to acknowledge that then there’s no point in having a discussion
@@dylanholt9906 cigars are associated with the same stigma as cigarettes, so of course people who do not know very much about cigars would dislike them or even tabacco products in general because of the harm cigarettes can cause. Though advertisements against tabacco don't necessarily include cigars, people will associate the same harm found in cigarettes with cigars simply because they do not know very much about them. Its more of a cultural thing people are against.
Adults aren't being arrested for smoking or growing tobacco! The only thing that's 100% true is that smoking tobacco causes cancer. We still live in a culture that very much demonizes marijuana.
theadventurevlog smoking cigarettes causes cancer and is highly addictive. If someone has a cigarette or two they are likely to want to keep smoking cigarettes. But someone can have a cigar once in a blue moon and not get addicted. I smoke maybe 2-3 cigars per year. Never felt like “oh man I gotta have another cigar”. So can we at least understand that cigarettes are a different thing then pipe tobacco or cigars. I’ve even asked doctors, “is it a big deal to smoke 1-3 cigars a year for special occasions ?” Yeah it’s fine. No doctor will say the same about cigarettes. Even 1 is harmful.
Nelson Gil within the first week of smoking pit I’ve had the cops called on me and I was chased out of a neighborhood by some old dude🤦🏼♂️ I’ve never heard 1 person bitch about a cigar all these comments are straight up bs
This is how I prepare a cigar for smoking (and this is the method I’d recommend): -Toast the cigar until you have just less than a 1/8” ash -Cut the cigar -Gently blow out the smoke in the cigar -Keep the cigar in my mouth and puff while lighting it Some people say that the smoke from toasting the cigar will negatively affect the taste and that cutting a cigar before toasting it will make the smoke flow through the cigar prematurely which is not what you want. Plus a toasting light (the same with pipe smoking) is not intended to be a proper light; it’s to dry out and heat the tobacco in preparation for a proper light. That’s my 2 cents
I started a cigar hobby. I’ve spent about $2k. I tried really expensive cigars (Cubans), expensive non-Cuban, “cheaper” ones ($8-$15 per cigar) and cheap ones. My favorite hands down is Deadwood Tobacco’s Fat Bottom Betty Robusto - I also have the gordo but robusto seems to be the sweet spot. Highly recommend.
I smoke cigar every 4th of July and already got one ready for next week. Romeo y Juilliet. Ashton is my favorite so far with a shot of scotch, 12 year macallans
centpushups My hubby grows his own tobacco and then rolls his own cigars and just smokes them every time we give birth to another baby or gives them as gifts to friends who are having babies... next baby is due in 6 weeks, so I need to make sure the last cigar we have left hasn't dried out.
I smoke pipe, usually with whiskey tobacco, pipe and cigar is not as harmful at all as cigarettes or marijuana. I never smoke inside though, I don't like the lingering smell.
centpushups Julius Caesar is one of my faves. There's also a nice bourbon infused one, don't know the name. Smoked one on my 30th birthday last year. For pipes I like this butterscotch flavored Virginia blend.
My great grandfather lived to be 105. At 103, the paper asked him what the key was. He said "Drinking booze and chasing women." I like his way a lot better! LOL!!!!
This was an awesome cast. I have been smoking cigars for about 6 years. I started smoking cigars with many of my Marines when I was deployed to Iraq. Just as was stated, it is a "bonding experience" than men can communicate with. Once again, a great way to discuss life.
Same here. Back in '04 we would buy dried out cohibas from the hajis, put them in a field expedient humidor for a few weeks, and find time to sit out in that dark ass desert and smoke and bullshit. Cigar nights were relaxed. Staff NCO's would be out there smoking smoking joking with us, and it was great for our morale.
Bearded Bjorn I am by no means a pothead and I haven't smoked since high school (8 years ago) and have only ever done it a handful of times in my life. I just am not an idiot and I understand science and affects these two drugs have on the body ( and have no problem with either of them, nor should anyone else).
Bearded Bjorn I love Crowder and Prager but if they were intellectually consistent on this issue they would be advocating for alcohol to be illegal also. Alcohol is blatantly the more harmful substance.
There's a difference between being angry vs pointing out someone said something extremely stupid. I can take a cigar any where I want in this country and face no issues or criminal punishment. Maybe some annoying fake coughing from an over dramatic soccer mom, but that's about it. Now try that with a joint. I've never heard of a movie called "cigar madness". Never heard of someone serving 20 years in prison for possessing a pound of cigars. Tough war you guys are facing lmao.
I chewed tobacco for a few years, switch to cigarettes for a few years, and then quit. Here I am 15 to 20 years later, reading and watching whatever I can get my hands on in reference to cigars because of how many positive things I've heard on the subject over the past couple of years. I highly respect and enjoy the work you both do, so to stumble across this video has made me very happy. Thank you for the great information and entertaining dialogue! God Bless
As funny and obviously Inaccurate as that statement is at face value, context makes it clear he is talking about the "PC" crowd. While politicians in general, and old guard Republicans in particular, have conducted a war on marijuana, the "PC" crowd has been either neutral about, or fully on board with, smoking pot.
It's pretty fucking sad to try and make excuses for an obviously bullshit statement. If he meant "there's no war on weed right now" he could have easily said that. He didn't. He was talking out of his ass.
This guy seems to hate weed but all the reasons he's saying he loves cigars can also be applied to weed. You can enjoy a joint as an experience once in a while, just as you can enjoy a cigar as and experience. Cigar lounges bring people together, sharing a joint brings people together. I smoke both and it's strange to me that there seems to be a kind of animosity between the two communities.
And its not like the effects of weed are like that of alcohol. When i smoke(this is in my experience) im calmed and i feel the effects yet im perfectly normal and can go about my day. And i smoke indica not sativa.
I’m just saying, when you always see cigar smokers coincidentally being portrayed as “villains” in the media while people who smoke weed are almost always portrayed as friendly or “vulnerable,” I start to wonder what they’re really trying to make me believe.
More of this relaxed mellow content please. I almost felt like i was in a lounge the whole time. Not saying abandon politics of course. Just some of these sprinkled in here and there
bennettjames100 that’s how I look at it go smoke some smack, crack, weed, meth, cigars, pipe. As long as your not affecting someone else with it who cares and honestly if it’s affecting your family it’s up to them to deal with your junkie ass not the taxpayers.
@@alpham777 People act like everyone who takes drugs is a filthy junkie. Does that mean that anyone who likes to enjoy a beer is a drunk? It's ridiculous. This isn't a free country if we tell adults what they can and can't consume.
@Anglo Commando okay cool. I smoke weed out of organic papers. I dont do tobacco period. Snoop dog smokes over 30 blunts a day. That is tobacco wraps with weed. That man looks healthy and is still pushing so when he dies let me know and Ill stop smoking.
Instead of saying why are they prosecuting blank and not blank implying you want to add more regulation we should be for the least amount of government intervention into our own daily life decisions.
"If it had always been legal I would not have voted to outlaw it." It always had been legal until prohibition began- antiquecannabisbook.com/Appendix/AppendixC.htm Prohibition actually began around the time of the Mexican Revolution. Mexicans came to the United States with cannabis. Racism was more common then. That's why people began to demonize the cannabis plant because the Mexicans used to smoke it. These anti-cannabis arguments weren't even about the inherent properties of the plant. It was about the people using it. For those of you who still do not know: the plant is called Cannabis, not "marijuana". People need to stop trying to outlaw a plant that can't physically harm or kill you. I can understand that Mr. Prager has witnessed a lot of bad things related to Cannabis but, it is imperative that he understands that Cannabis is a good plant- not evil. It has successfully treated my anxiety, depression, insomnia, adhd, and helped me kick my addiction to FDA APPROVED prescription medications such as adderall and abilify. If you'd like to learn more about Cannabis, please go to the link I have provided below: www.amazon.com/Cannabis-Manifesto-New-Paradigm-Wellness/dp/1583949372/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1530072710&sr=8-1&keywords=the+cannabis+manifesto
Offroad Gunner-Pups smoked everyday my senior year of high school. Passed with a 3.4 GPA. (after continuing to disappoint with 2.0 GPAs before I smoked) Weed doesn’t make you lazy. You make yourself lazy. I kicked myself in the ass and got my shit done, and still smoked a bowl everyday. I also worked. On top of that I managed a relationship, and we’re still going. Oh and I’m going off to college. So yeah, weed doesn’t make you lazy. You make yourself lazy.
Offroad Gunner-Pups It seems safer because the proper research into the dangers hasn’t been done. Alcohol and tobacco have been under the microscope for years where as marijuana is a relatively new substance. However the research currently done points to same or possibly worse danger. Carcinogens(cancer causing chemicals) commonly found in tobacco products are found in higher quantities in marijuana products. THC a psychotropic chemical in marijuana is known to cause psychosis or worsen symptoms of it. THC is consistently found in higher quantities in marijuana with its counterpart CBD the chemical that counteracts the effects being found in less and less quantities. Maybe no dangers have been definitively stated but it doesn’t look good.
There was a war on grass in the 1900s but those days are over its frustrating the crusade on tobacco when governments want to legalize narcotics these days. My logic is no plant should be illegal but the government has shifted its sights on tobacco and its absurd
@@GrosvnerMcaffrey that's just skunk weed. I can show you weed that smells like grapegruits, weed that smells like cheese, weed that smells like chocolate, etc. All determined by terpene content. And for the record, it's still a schedule 1 narcotic with heroin and cocaine so there's no legitimacy to the argument that cigars are more demonized.
@@Shakshuka69 all I'm saying is no drug should be illegal especially not plant ones like grass and coke but I've never smelt chocolate grass only skunk all the stoners I've met smell like it and I've been to dispensaries that smell that way too so I'll take your word for it
David Millar ...are you really asking? Not trying to be a smart ass. It is a somewhat _dated_ reference. JIC, it involved a sexual act performed by Bill. ....If liberals from then could only see the popular view of their golden boy now.
Sitting here smoking an Ave Maria Immaculata, listening to two of my favorite political personalities talk about one of my favorite hobbies... this is awesome
Most cuban families moved to Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic. Cuban cigars are now an outdated meme, and yes Nicaraguan tobacco is the tastiest, Dominican tends to smell the best.
Mister Grey It would be nice if more people thought like this ("do what you like unless you're hurting someone else" is what I think too) but unfortunately you got tons of the type of people that'll wave and cough like crazy, as if they're dying from acute AIDS-infested lung cancer, if you pass by them while smoking a stogie or vaping. Fucking nancy idiots, give me a fucking break. I'm sure they're just the paragon of health too.
The amount of car crashes caused by marijuana is more than alcohol. It's affecting people. Also I had to deal with stupid ass kids in highschool due to it.
It's wild to hear Pregger of all people be so flippent about the natural rights of an individual in this instance. And that's without getting into the nuance of the origin of the word "marijuana." Here I thought Dennis was for logic and reason, much less Democracy and Liberty.
Please come to Thunderbird Cigar Lounge in Tacoma, Washington. We are reservation owned and I know for a fact the management would love to discuss the arbitrary means in which cigars is improperly handled. Plus we have very comfy chairs and you don't have to be part of a club to attend. And a huge inventory.
Finally a video for me! Big fan of your stuff Steven, thank you for bringing these horrible FDA rules to the mainstream. A few things regarding cigar smoking: 07:00 - Toasting makes it less harsh than straight lighting because the tobacco is being lit more slowly. That being said, toasting vs puffing in makes no difference past the first few puffs, as it will correct itself and burn properly after that. 29:00 - To retrohale is to pass the smoke through your sinuses, there's no inhaling involved. Since your nose is linked to your taste buds, it opens up the true range of flavours that the cigar has to offer, especially the more subtle notes. Smoking without retrohaling is the same as plugging your nose while eating food. 30:00 - The country of origin makes no difference at all. A Dominican cigar just means it was rolled in the Dominican, the tobacco inside can come from anywhere. Plus there is several different growing areas in each country, each resulting is a wide variety of tobacco. Picking cigars by country is the same as buying one randomly. Country means nothing regarding body, strength, flavours, etc. 30:00 - As far as Cubans are concerned, they are just like all other cigars: a few good ones, a few bad ones, and a whole lot of meh cigars. They are known for their construction issues however, and it is common for them to have burn problems. What Dennis said about how people love the fantasy , not the reality, is 100% true. If someone says to you that Cubans are the best, it's a dead giveaway they don't know what they are talking about. 34:40 - The wrapper (or any tobacco used in the cigar) means nothing, with the exception being ligero which has a lot more nicotine. The tobacco used means nothing as far as flavours, body, etc are concerned. The reason you say Habano wrappers as being spicy is because Habano wrappers are very common and the market is dominated now by earthy, peppery cigars. A lot of the brands you mentioned (like My Father) fall right into that category of earth and pepper. 36:40 - The best beginner cigar in my opinion is the Joya de Nicaragua Red. It's medium body with no strength and very easy to pick out the flavours for beginners. 37:40 - NO, DON'T DO THAT. All the nasty ash and smoke aromas stick inside the cigar. It DOES NOT taste good the day after and stinks up the entire place. Also, don't put in in your humidor or else it will ruin your other cigars because they will pick up the ash flavour from the half smoked one. If you cut it in half and put it in a ziplock bag like Dennis said, smell it the next day. The entire bag will stink like ash. Trust me, you don't want to smoke it. If you don't want a full cigar, then buy smaller cigars or throw it out when you are done.
Very interesting! for a beginner, what causes people to be dizzy or sick? and is there anything to do to reduce the chances of that happening? my first few cigars were fine but one time I got sick off one and was not sure why and I have been too nervous to try again.
matthewrs7 It's the nicotine. Even though you are not inhaling the smoke, the nicotine is still absorbed into your body through your mouth. To reduce the chances if it happening, I would recommend looking for some cigar reviews and see what the person says about the nicotine strength of that specific cigar. Also, it's very subjective. Cigars that have 0 strength to me are very hard hitters for friends of mine. Considering most social media stuff in the cigar world is 20 years behind, it's a lot of experimenting with different stuff and seeing what you like.
Mr. Prager is not alone in not caring for Cuban cigars. From what I have read, the recent enhancements in the agricultural worlds these other countries mentioned have caught-up or surpassed Cuba. There is also a theory that their cigar region soils have been over worked, without a lot being done to replenish it.
Most cuban cigar families moved to Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic. Our cigars now a days are far better than what cuba ever grew in the past. The expanded blends currently are the result of their collaboration and new soils.
How about we allow adults to be adults and make decisions for themselves. Let’s not declare a ware on adult’s individual decisions... What a concept...
@Taylor Graham Liberal? For being against prohibition? Technically that would be conservative. Go back a little over a hundred years and no drug was outlawed. Liberalism is being open to new ideas and behaviors, such as the idea that the country would be better off if we made the mushrooms that naturally grow in my lawn illegal.
Fantastic interview and I love the Brick House! Have a great sentiment for this cigar because actually it was my first ever! Would love to watch more about premium cigars here!
Brick House is my favorite budget cigar. I punch my cigars, but I'll use a guillotine on torpedo wrapped cigars. The way I see it, it's either all okay or none of it's okay. I like to relax with a cigar, on occasion I'll smoke a little bit of green. I think they both ought to be legal.
I love cigars and pipe smoking last time I was in commiefornia I had a beautiful long stem hand carved pipe smoking outside my hotel room. A guy came up and thought my pipe was cool as shit until he found out it wasn't weed then it turned into "you would do that in front of our kids"
Strange that you mention the link between conservative ideology and cigar smoking. I used to be rather liberal left but in the past 6 months have changed my political standpoint completely (big thanks to you Steven for helping me along). I have also recently picked up cigar smoking. Perhaps they are just mutual traits of an intellectual! :P
@@silkroad1201 Oh I still lack common sense despite my shift in political belief. Perhaps one day I will be able to find the nail clippers in the draw to the immediate left of the spare bed; but that day is not today.
@@aayushdas19 Yeah me too, I truly believed the 'it's never been implemented properly before' spiel.. Ah well, I just ordered a Cuban sampler pack, Montecristos and Cohiba's, and a couple other sticks, capitalism is the best. Sorry Cuba.
Some of the best conversations I’ve ever had with strangers have been in a cigar lounge. Race didn’t matter, country of origin was irrelevant- just good conversation. Love this video as I’m a huge fan of Prager, Crowder and cigars. Great show and as someone else mentioned I am enjoying the break from politics.
The cigar is toasted before drawing to create an even burn. The binder and wrapper do not light as fast as the filler. Also, toasting the foot helps you visualize the burn before drawing and lighting at the same time. This makes it easier to light and prevents burning the shit out of it trying to light it evenly..
Okay that makes more sense, but I personally strongly disagree with people being able to smoke in public places because I really hate second hand smoking, like I don't give a shit what you do, but if it effects me, then fuck off. I can also see the nicotine fee making sense because smoking does significantly increase your chances of needing medical care, and since these insurances are all profit driven, it makes financial sense for them to do that.
If it's an outside public place and beyond the 20ft from the entrance to a business then you have no right to complain. You can just as easily fuck off and get out of range of the second hand smoke. If walking down a sidewalk and someone walks into my cloud of smoke... well tough shit, I have just as much right being on that sidewalk as you do whether I'm smoking or not.
That's actually a good point, I can see how public places that are away from certain places should be allowed. But I still think we should make sure people are smoking in these places, and also enforce rules not allowing people to smoke in some areas.
It doesnt exist. The only point they have was the need to detour teens from running to flavored tabacoo. You know that weird shit joe camel was known for?
I’m 21 I’m always the youngest at cigar lounges I’ve never met anyone who isn’t at least 10 years older than me but they’re always really nice and friendly i don’t drink or do drugs or anything close to that but I ended up with some cigars and honestly I love the flavor too and I always get relaxed and I am perfectly capable to drive and do anything unlike with weed with I have done once and I my perception of distance was so bad I always panicked at a stop sign or red light and I wasn’t even the one driving
I smoke both. Both are like a relationship. A cigar is a girl you take your time with if you push her too far she'll get sour and fall apart (smoke too fast). A pipe is a very sweet girl that needs constant attention. If you do you'll be rewarded. If you don't you're constantly rekindling the relationship (re lighting)
Steven I would just like to say thank you for clearing up many stigmas I had on cigars. Your information really changed my mind and I looked up all of it to confirm it all and your right. Thank you for removing one more misunderstanding for me and adding to my current understanding. Cheers!
@@adventageousrebel739 Yes, a people that immigrated to the east bank of the Mediterranean Sea, from what is now Iraq, look like Sub-Saharan Africans.... Sure... 🙄
It's true what Prager said about the friendliness of people in cigar bars. I went into one for the first time earlier in the year and the people there greet you like an episode of Cheers. They'll give you cigar suggestions, they'll wave you into their social circle, and they've all got a light. Really a delightful crowd.
There's a reason for the stereotypes Pipes: Super cheap the tobacco. Really the most expensive part is the pipe itself and needing time to tend it while smoking. hence associated with grandpas and professors in their study. Hookah: Eastern pipe equivalent associated with royalty because it does take time to tend too as well. Got popular with hippies cause it's capable of being social with like a bong but not as ghetto. Cigarettes: Working class because it's so quick and portable. Course now they're so expensive because of regulations there's no point. Cigars: Always seen as bourgeois because the good ones are expensive. Lots of communists smoked them too because if you know about farming tobacco leaves you'll know the details. Vape: Modern zoomer invention to try and abide by the toxic culture that doesn't want you to have anything. It has no nicotine, it's entirely just nitrogen and other extracts so people can't complain about allergies, and people still complain. I'm not knocking vape, if you like it cool. They look cool and are convenient. But don't vape just to avoid people disliking smoking. They'll never be happy
Steven, I have been a Mug Club member for several years! The FDA funded study indicated that the increased risk of death from ALL causes for people who smoke 2 "premium" cigars a day is 1%. I also saw a graph that indicated that for people who smoke 5+ premium cigars a day the risk increases to 1.4%. Conversely, I read a study that indicated that people who eat 2 Big Macs a week increases the risk of heart disease by 59%, diabetes by 39% and breast cancer by 32%. Btw, I frequent Cigars Daily and have not been able to buy a box of the American Viking Obrigado Coronas since they started the Crowder Sampler! Thanks for that! Hahaha!
I never knew Dennis Prayer was such a rebel. I hate smoking, but I love it when smokers have the freedom to smoke their ass off, as long as it disrupts no one else's day.
Sorry about the misunderstanding, pu tang. No offense meant. Yes, weed is illegal, federally. Thankfully. Note- the "establishment", is now the left wing nut jobs, who favor legalization of drugs. I'm quite "libertarian" in that regard, but still, I've been around the block too many times, to not know what a problem that would be in the real world. It's just me, and my life experiences that say such a thing against drugs. How about you, Tang? 60 years of life experiences, actually "using" those poison's, like me, or not? On balance, weed is a monumental negative thing in any society, based on my experience.
As a libertarian, I believe that weed should be 100% legal. The govt has no right to tell us what we can use. I think it was ridiculous that Mr. Prager said there isn't a war on weed. There is, much more than cigars. I dont see people who smoke cigars getting beaten by police and thrown in jail just to get even more beat up and raped. Just saying
I was gifted a cigar last year and enjoyed it, never bought another though until last week. I have had a few so far and started to write down my thoughts on each so I know what I like. I made the rookie mistake of buying longer ones at first, so i went back and bought some shorter ones. Its is really enjoyable and I am glade that you guys talk about this hobby. Keep up the good work!
DUDE tobacco is Schedule I drug. Schedule I drugs, substances, or chemicals are defined as drugs with no currently accepted medical use and a high potential for abuse. No one in the world thinks tobacco has any accepted medical use and every one knows its addictive and causes cancer.
Cosmic Error have you been asleep for the last year? Cigars are being criminalized all over the nation while marijuana is being legalized. Have you not seen the increasing number of places where you can now sell marijuana but can no longer sell cigars?
Dennis Prager stops by to discuss all things cigars! Let us know your thoughts on our conversation below!
Makes me crave for something I've never tried. If my mother complains about cigar smoke, I'll show her this video. Any sensible person would understand.
Also, gotta love that you have one of the leaders of the modern conservative movement on your political late-night show to talk exclusively about cigars. Kinda refreshing not hearing about Stormy Daniels for a single day.
Serie V Melanio is also my favorite cigar. Great choice!
Dennis Pregger just made a fool of himself for no reason even as he admitted an emotional response. Thank you Crowder for pushing back, but I wish you had made the point that pot smokers just want to be left alone as well.
Love this vid and info. My go to is a Drew estate nica rustica. Always a good draw, dark creamy flavors and great price point.
I'd dig more casual conversations like these. Never realized how nice it is to have a break from politics.

this comment was some dumb shit I wrote when I was an edgy teen.
Funny thing is, Communism was the reason that a bunch of Cuban cigar makers emigrated elsewhere, because they didn’t want to be paid so little.
Because Cuba has not made the best cigars for a long time...
nickapalooza861 they still do I smoke romeo and Juliet . Still the best
Cubans are good but they aren’t the be all end all.
@@nickapalooza861 its a branding thing. General cigars are most affordable and the blends have been perfected more then most Habanos.

My dad took me to get a cigar on my 18th birthday . It was one of the coolest feelings to sit with my dad and smoke that cigar. It is one memory I will never forget. And he and my brother and I still smoke cigars together.
Nerd
Should of cut it open and filled it with weed 😂
How old is your dad currently? Did cigars never affect his health? I am going to start smoking cigars but I am afraid of health issues long term

Love you guys
You guys are great!
Love your channel dude
There needs to be a cigar related episode with Bradley from TNT and Steven Crowder!
I watched you guys around the time I started smoking cigars.
Im 100% conservative, but weed and cigars should be 100% legal
Yeah why not
Fuck it McMuffins all around
im 47% liberal
I'm hardcore libertarian on the drugs issue. People wanna smoke crack let em as long as they ain't MURDERING people
Weed is harmless and very beneficial if used appropriately. Cigars are also nice for the most part, just don't inhale.
This video is the reason I'm sitting in a cigar lounge trying my first cigar... Right this moment
How was it? Any suggestions for my first experience?
juma lauta has a cheaper Cuban guantanamera christley or something like that. I ordered a few decent different cigars online. Romeo julietta reserve is one of them

I had COVID over Christmas. 3 days feeling like shit and hardly breathing, and then I smoked a cigar because I was miserable.
I sucked down a A.J. Fernandez and was almost totally recovered. My throat dried up and I could breath again and my fever broke that night. Felt great afterwards. LOL crazy for modern minds but true story!
^^100% same situation for me. Had COVID, broke it within 3 days from smoking cigars

As a cigar shop owner, I appreciate you shedding a light on the cigar/pipe world. You guys are spot on with the explanation of cigar culture. Many problems we face in the world today have already been solved in cigar lounges. I'd like to hear Dennis' reaction to trying his first retrohale haha....

Hahaha well said 👏🏼
I’m 19 and wanna smoke cigars. I’ve always said mainly to myself when I think of it I have an old soul in a modern age. I’m thankful for it and can’t wait to do it. I’ve learned a lot in the past few days such as Lancero, toro, torpedo, Churchill, Robusto, Gordo. I know how to cut, different cuts, light them, smoke them. I like the professional look plus I hear it boost your testosterone. I’ve been motivated to lose weight which I lost 24 pounds, wear suits when I get fit, keep my hair looking good. I can’t wait and also drink whiskey. Also part of the cigar there are usually 1 cap, double cap, triple cap. The body, foot, head or cap. Maybe one day I might visit your cigar shop. Have a blessed day

Dont ban tobacco or weed
Secondhand smoke is deadly. Every year countless vapers get the shit kicked out of them for blowing like an asshole.
mariokarter13 😂
Weed is already illegal
This man speaks the truth. If we ban tobacco we’d be completely out of blunt wraps...
Let people snort coke too. And I'm not joking.
Here's the story of Cuban cigars, from a cuban: When Castro took over, the good cigar makers left Cuba and went to Florida and central America. The cigar makers left in Cuba were nationalized and then run by people who either had never worked in the industry or were the lower end makers.
E.g. Gilberto Oliva (Oliva Cigars. Try the Serie G for milder+ Cameroon wrapper and Serie V for stronger + Ecuadorian wrapper) left Cuba after the communists took over, and travelled across central america until he settled in Nicaragua and picked his trade back up. He passed in 2017 and his family is still making amazing cigars today.
Communism killed the Cuban cigar industry.

Since people are getting their panties in a twist over the whole “no war on marijuana” thing, I’m pretty sure he meant the cultural attitude toward cigars now quite a bit more negative then towards marijuana. Which nowadays is 100% true, it wasn’t always that way but today it is and if you refuse to acknowledge that then there’s no point in having a discussion
can you give me a tangible example of a negative attitude toward cigars?
@@dylanholt9906 cigars are associated with the same stigma as cigarettes, so of course people who do not know very much about cigars would dislike them or even tabacco products in general because of the harm cigarettes can cause. Though advertisements against tabacco don't necessarily include cigars, people will associate the same harm found in cigarettes with cigars simply because they do not know very much about them. Its more of a cultural thing people are against.
Adults aren't being arrested for smoking or growing tobacco! The only thing that's 100% true is that smoking tobacco causes cancer. We still live in a culture that very much demonizes marijuana.
theadventurevlog smoking cigarettes causes cancer and is highly addictive. If someone has a cigarette or two they are likely to want to keep smoking cigarettes.
But someone can have a cigar once in a blue moon and not get addicted. I smoke maybe 2-3 cigars per year. Never felt like “oh man I gotta have another cigar”.
So can we at least understand that cigarettes are a different thing then pipe tobacco or cigars.
I’ve even asked doctors, “is it a big deal to smoke 1-3 cigars a year for special occasions ?”
Yeah it’s fine.
No doctor will say the same about cigarettes. Even 1 is harmful.

This is how I prepare a cigar for smoking (and this is the method I’d recommend):
-Toast the cigar until you have just less than a 1/8” ash
-Cut the cigar
-Gently blow out the smoke in the cigar
-Keep the cigar in my mouth and puff while lighting it
Some people say that the smoke from toasting the cigar will negatively affect the taste and that cutting a cigar before toasting it will make the smoke flow through the cigar prematurely which is not what you want. Plus a toasting light (the same with pipe smoking) is not intended to be a proper light; it’s to dry out and heat the tobacco in preparation for a proper light. That’s my 2 cents
If you wanna smoke pot or cigarettes or a cigar then do so. People need to start acting like grownups
Bejdza in your house only. Got it.
I laughed more at "Dennis Prager Uncut" in the title than I should have.
OMFG 😂😂
I started a cigar hobby. I’ve spent about $2k. I tried really expensive cigars (Cubans), expensive non-Cuban, “cheaper” ones ($8-$15 per cigar) and cheap ones.
My favorite hands down is Deadwood Tobacco’s Fat Bottom Betty Robusto - I also have the gordo but robusto seems to be the sweet spot. Highly recommend.
I smoke cigar every 4th of July and already got one ready for next week. Romeo y Juilliet. Ashton is my favorite so far with a shot of scotch, 12 year macallans
centpushups My hubby grows his own tobacco and then rolls his own cigars and just smokes them every time we give birth to another baby or gives them as gifts to friends who are having babies... next baby is due in 6 weeks, so I need to make sure the last cigar we have left hasn't dried out.
Adolf Hitler lol, I know you're joking but the answer is basically yes. We can get hold of awesome fireworks where we live.
I smoke pipe, usually with whiskey tobacco, pipe and cigar is not as harmful at all as cigarettes or marijuana. I never smoke inside though, I don't like the lingering smell.
centpushups Julius Caesar is one of my faves. There's also a nice bourbon infused one, don't know the name. Smoked one on my 30th birthday last year. For pipes I like this butterscotch flavored Virginia blend.

Padron 1964 with about 1 year of resting in your humidor. That has been my favorite to date.
This was an awesome cast. I have been smoking cigars for about 6 years. I started smoking cigars with many of my Marines when I was deployed to Iraq. Just as was stated, it is a "bonding experience" than men can communicate with. Once again, a great way to discuss life.
Same here. Back in '04 we would buy dried out cohibas from the hajis, put them in a field expedient humidor for a few weeks, and find time to sit out in that dark ass desert and smoke and bullshit. Cigar nights were relaxed. Staff NCO's would be out there smoking smoking joking with us, and it was great for our morale.
Pretty much 80% of these comments are pot heads getting angry at Steven, even though they didn’t even listen to what he said.
Bearded Bjorn I am by no means a pothead and I haven't smoked since high school (8 years ago) and have only ever done it a handful of times in my life. I just am not an idiot and I understand science and affects these two drugs have on the body ( and have no problem with either of them, nor should anyone else).
They might be anxious because they risk being put in a cage in with violent criminals because they smoked a relatively harmless plant. Just a thought
It’s stupid to think the government can tell you if you are allowed to smoke a plant or not
Bearded Bjorn I love Crowder and Prager but if they were intellectually consistent on this issue they would be advocating for alcohol to be illegal also. Alcohol is blatantly the more harmful substance.
There's a difference between being angry vs pointing out someone said something extremely stupid. I can take a cigar any where I want in this country and face no issues or criminal punishment. Maybe some annoying fake coughing from an over dramatic soccer mom, but that's about it. Now try that with a joint. I've never heard of a movie called "cigar madness". Never heard of someone serving 20 years in prison for possessing a pound of cigars. Tough war you guys are facing lmao.
Holy hell, I love cigars! Watching this makes me want one!
I chewed tobacco for a few years, switch to cigarettes for a few years, and then quit. Here I am 15 to 20 years later, reading and watching whatever I can get my hands on in reference to cigars because of how many positive things I've heard on the subject over the past couple of years. I highly respect and enjoy the work you both do, so to stumble across this video has made me very happy. Thank you for the great information and entertaining dialogue! God Bless
It does increase mouth and tongue cancer, just like chewing Tobacco. All tobacco carries risks, so you've been warned.

As funny and obviously Inaccurate as that statement is at face value, context makes it clear he is talking about the "PC" crowd. While politicians in general, and old guard Republicans in particular, have conducted a war on marijuana, the "PC" crowd has been either neutral about, or fully on board with, smoking pot.

@Photodisintegration wow.
It's pretty fucking sad to try and make excuses for an obviously bullshit statement. If he meant "there's no war on weed right now" he could have easily said that. He didn't. He was talking out of his ass.
This guy seems to hate weed but all the reasons he's saying he loves cigars can also be applied to weed. You can enjoy a joint as an experience once in a while, just as you can enjoy a cigar as and experience. Cigar lounges bring people together, sharing a joint brings people together. I smoke both and it's strange to me that there seems to be a kind of animosity between the two communities.

"If it had always been legal I would not have voted to outlaw it."
It always had been legal until prohibition began- antiquecannabisbook.com/Appendix/AppendixC.htm
Prohibition actually began around the time of the Mexican Revolution.
Mexicans came to the United States with cannabis. Racism was more common then.
That's why people began to demonize the cannabis plant because the Mexicans used to smoke it. These anti-cannabis arguments weren't even about the inherent properties of the plant. It was about the people using it.
For those of you who still do not know: the plant is called Cannabis, not "marijuana".
People need to stop trying to outlaw a plant that can't physically harm or kill you.
I can understand that Mr. Prager has witnessed a lot of bad things related to Cannabis but, it is imperative that he understands that Cannabis is a good plant- not evil.
It has successfully treated my anxiety, depression, insomnia, adhd, and helped me kick my addiction to FDA APPROVED prescription medications such as adderall and abilify.

Weed doesn’t make you lazy. You make yourself lazy. I kicked myself in the ass and got my shit done, and still smoked a bowl everyday. I also worked. On top of that I managed a relationship, and we’re still going. Oh and I’m going off to college. So yeah, weed doesn’t make you lazy. You make yourself lazy.
Offroad Gunner-Pups It seems safer because the proper research into the dangers hasn’t been done. Alcohol and tobacco have been under the microscope for years where as marijuana is a relatively new substance. However the research currently done points to same or possibly worse danger. Carcinogens(cancer causing chemicals) commonly found in tobacco products are found in higher quantities in marijuana products. THC a psychotropic chemical in marijuana is known to cause psychosis or worsen symptoms of it. THC is consistently found in higher quantities in marijuana with its counterpart CBD the chemical that counteracts the effects being found in less and less quantities. Maybe no dangers have been definitively stated but it doesn’t look good.

I wanna hang out and smoke a cigar with these great men!
Finally a video for me! Big fan of your stuff Steven, thank you for bringing these horrible FDA rules to the mainstream. A few things regarding cigar smoking:
07:00 - Toasting makes it less harsh than straight lighting because the tobacco is being lit more slowly. That being said, toasting vs puffing in makes no difference past the first few puffs, as it will correct itself and burn properly after that.
29:00 - To retrohale is to pass the smoke through your sinuses, there's no inhaling involved. Since your nose is linked to your taste buds, it opens up the true range of flavours that the cigar has to offer, especially the more subtle notes. Smoking without retrohaling is the same as plugging your nose while eating food.
30:00 - The country of origin makes no difference at all. A Dominican cigar just means it was rolled in the Dominican, the tobacco inside can come from anywhere. Plus there is several different growing areas in each country, each resulting is a wide variety of tobacco. Picking cigars by country is the same as buying one randomly. Country means nothing regarding body, strength, flavours, etc.
30:00 - As far as Cubans are concerned, they are just like all other cigars: a few good ones, a few bad ones, and a whole lot of meh cigars. They are known for their construction issues however, and it is common for them to have burn problems. What Dennis said about how people love the fantasy , not the reality, is 100% true. If someone says to you that Cubans are the best, it's a dead giveaway they don't know what they are talking about.
34:40 - The wrapper (or any tobacco used in the cigar) means nothing, with the exception being ligero which has a lot more nicotine. The tobacco used means nothing as far as flavours, body, etc are concerned. The reason you say Habano wrappers as being spicy is because Habano wrappers are very common and the market is dominated now by earthy, peppery cigars. A lot of the brands you mentioned (like My Father) fall right into that category of earth and pepper.
36:40 - The best beginner cigar in my opinion is the Joya de Nicaragua Red. It's medium body with no strength and very easy to pick out the flavours for beginners.
37:40 - NO, DON'T DO THAT. All the nasty ash and smoke aromas stick inside the cigar. It DOES NOT taste good the day after and stinks up the entire place. Also, don't put in in your humidor or else it will ruin your other cigars because they will pick up the ash flavour from the half smoked one. If you cut it in half and put it in a ziplock bag like Dennis said, smell it the next day. The entire bag will stink like ash. Trust me, you don't want to smoke it. If you don't want a full cigar, then buy smaller cigars or throw it out when you are done.
Very interesting! for a beginner, what causes people to be dizzy or sick? and is there anything to do to reduce the chances of that happening? my first few cigars were fine but one time I got sick off one and was not sure why and I have been too nervous to try again.
matthewrs7 It's the nicotine. Even though you are not inhaling the smoke, the nicotine is still absorbed into your body through your mouth. To reduce the chances if it happening, I would recommend looking for some cigar reviews and see what the person says about the nicotine strength of that specific cigar. Also, it's very subjective. Cigars that have 0 strength to me are very hard hitters for friends of mine. Considering most social media stuff in the cigar world is 20 years behind, it's a lot of experimenting with different stuff and seeing what you like.
Cigar Talk oh I see. So I likely had one with high nicotine level. I will look up reviews next time I give it a try
Mr. Prager is not alone in not caring for Cuban cigars. From what I have read, the recent enhancements in the agricultural worlds these other countries mentioned have caught-up or surpassed Cuba. There is also a theory that their cigar region soils have been over worked, without a lot being done to replenish it.
Most cuban cigar families moved to Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic. Our cigars now a days are far better than what cuba ever grew in the past. The expanded blends currently are the result of their collaboration and new soils.
Cuba's soil has been played out for years due to agricultural mismanagement and tobacco being the major splint holding up cuba's economy
This was great. Thanks for the collab with yet another cigar enthusiast!
The best theological, political and otherwise conversations I've ever had were over cigars...
How about we allow adults to be adults and make decisions for themselves. Let’s not declare a ware on adult’s individual decisions... What a concept...
No that sounds very libertarian, Crowder is a--- oh wait---
@Taylor Graham Liberal? For being against prohibition? Technically that would be conservative. Go back a little over a hundred years and no drug was outlawed. Liberalism is being open to new ideas and behaviors, such as the idea that the country would be better off if we made the mushrooms that naturally grow in my lawn illegal.

I'm a fan of Dennis and cigars. I can't believe it took me almost 4 years to find this...
This was refreshing.
I love cigars and pipe smoking last time I was in commiefornia I had a beautiful long stem hand carved pipe smoking outside my hotel room. A guy came up and thought my pipe was cool as shit until he found out it wasn't weed then it turned into "you would do that in front of our kids"
Ryder RatedR fuck him and sorry as i still live in commiefornia try out Ashton's blend its a great english blend.
TRIGUND thanks i will btw vash for president
Could you do a churchill test where you test the pin thing, like a smal mythbusters segment
lol
Louder with Crowder in one hand, cigar talk in the other. Loved putting them 2 together!
Strange that you mention the link between conservative ideology and cigar smoking. I used to be rather liberal left but in the past 6 months have changed my political standpoint completely (big thanks to you Steven for helping me along). I have also recently picked up cigar smoking. Perhaps they are just mutual traits of an intellectual! :P
Good for you man 👍👍. Welcome to the world of common sense :)
@@silkroad1201 Oh I still lack common sense despite my shift in political belief. Perhaps one day I will be able to find the nail clippers in the draw to the immediate left of the spare bed; but that day is not today.
@@meadandmilk welcome home bruv, I was liberal too, even communist too to a point.
@@aayushdas19 Yeah me too, I truly believed the 'it's never been implemented properly before' spiel.. Ah well, I just ordered a Cuban sampler pack, Montecristos and Cohiba's, and a couple other sticks, capitalism is the best. Sorry Cuba.
@@meadandmilk agreed. I'll probably try a Cigar the moment I hit eighteen, but sadly, not now.

Some of the best conversations I’ve ever had with strangers have been in a cigar lounge. Race didn’t matter, country of origin was irrelevant- just good conversation.
Love this video as I’m a huge fan of Prager, Crowder and cigars. Great show and as someone else mentioned I am enjoying the break from politics.
boom!
The cigar is toasted before drawing to create an even burn. The binder and wrapper do not light as fast as the filler. Also, toasting the foot helps you visualize the burn before drawing and lighting at the same time. This makes it easier to light and prevents burning the shit out of it trying to light it evenly..
I would like to see his pipe and fountain pen collections.
if cigars lengthen your life, monica lewinsky is going to live to be 105.
How big is this cigar problem cuz I’ve literally never heard about it
Okay that makes more sense, but I personally strongly disagree with people being able to smoke in public places because I really hate second hand smoking, like I don't give a shit what you do, but if it effects me, then fuck off. I can also see the nicotine fee making sense because smoking does significantly increase your chances of needing medical care, and since these insurances are all profit driven, it makes financial sense for them to do that.
If it's an outside public place and beyond the 20ft from the entrance to a business then you have no right to complain. You can just as easily fuck off and get out of range of the second hand smoke. If walking down a sidewalk and someone walks into my cloud of smoke... well tough shit, I have just as much right being on that sidewalk as you do whether I'm smoking or not.
That's actually a good point, I can see how public places that are away from certain places should be allowed. But I still think we should make sure people are smoking in these places, and also enforce rules not allowing people to smoke in some areas.
Non exstent
It doesnt exist. The only point they have was the need to detour teens from running to flavored tabacoo. You know that weird shit joe camel was known for?
I’m 21 I’m always the youngest at cigar lounges I’ve never met anyone who isn’t at least 10 years older than me but they’re always really nice and friendly i don’t drink or do drugs or anything close to that but I ended up with some cigars and honestly I love the flavor too and I always get relaxed and I am perfectly capable to drive and do anything unlike with weed with I have done once and I my perception of distance was so bad I always panicked at a stop sign or red light and I wasn’t even the one driving
The amount of time Prager said “yummy” was uncomfortable for an aged, wisdom-filled man.
9:46 I love how Prager is like "The government should ban everything I don't like."
Basically his logic
"My father is very tasty" -Dennis Prager, 2018
Such a chill episode. Politics can be a headache this is a nice fresh video
i was told cigars are like a one night stand vs pipes are like a relationship
I smoke both. Both are like a relationship. A cigar is a girl you take your time with if you push her too far she'll get sour and fall apart (smoke too fast). A pipe is a very sweet girl that needs constant attention. If you do you'll be rewarded. If you don't you're constantly rekindling the relationship (re lighting)
Steven I would just like to say thank you for clearing up many stigmas I had on cigars. Your information really changed my mind and I looked up all of it to confirm it all and your right. Thank you for removing one more misunderstanding for me and adding to my current understanding. Cheers!
This is one of your best videos
Prager may be the first uncut Orthodox Jew.
schwarzblatt he’s not orthodox
He not even a jew he maybe "jew'ish" but definitely not a real biblical jew, they're black people.
@@adventageousrebel739 wait what?
@@adventageousrebel739 Yes, a people that immigrated to the east bank of the Mediterranean Sea, from what is now Iraq, look like Sub-Saharan Africans.... Sure... 🙄
@@adventageousrebel739 Now this is some high level stupidity.
I smoke a lot of weed but I do love me some crowder and practically agree with him on everything
"Tobacco is yummy" - Dennis Prager
It's true what Prager said about the friendliness of people in cigar bars. I went into one for the first time earlier in the year and the people there greet you like an episode of Cheers. They'll give you cigar suggestions, they'll wave you into their social circle, and they've all got a light. Really a delightful crowd.
There's a reason for the stereotypes
Pipes: Super cheap the tobacco. Really the most expensive part is the pipe itself and needing time to tend it while smoking. hence associated with grandpas and professors in their study.
Hookah: Eastern pipe equivalent associated with royalty because it does take time to tend too as well. Got popular with hippies cause it's capable of being social with like a bong but not as ghetto.
Cigarettes: Working class because it's so quick and portable. Course now they're so expensive because of regulations there's no point.
Cigars: Always seen as bourgeois because the good ones are expensive. Lots of communists smoked them too because if you know about farming tobacco leaves you'll know the details.
Vape: Modern zoomer invention to try and abide by the toxic culture that doesn't want you to have anything. It has no nicotine, it's entirely just nitrogen and other extracts so people can't complain about allergies, and people still complain. I'm not knocking vape, if you like it cool. They look cool and are convenient. But don't vape just to avoid people disliking smoking. They'll never be happy
I prefer Churchill style cigars the very long ones
"I have a very long one"😉
Cigars are the cool thing to smoke, next only to pipes
Legoclub 22 I will be your friend old friend

Steven, I have been a Mug Club member for several years!
The FDA funded study indicated that the increased risk of death from ALL causes for people who smoke 2 "premium" cigars a day is 1%. I also saw a graph that indicated that for people who smoke 5+ premium cigars a day the risk increases to 1.4%.
Conversely, I read a study that indicated that people who eat 2 Big Macs a week increases the risk of heart disease by 59%, diabetes by 39% and breast cancer by 32%.
Btw, I frequent Cigars Daily and have not been able to buy a box of the American Viking Obrigado Coronas since they started the Crowder Sampler!
Thanks for that! Hahaha!
I never knew Dennis Prayer was such a rebel. I hate smoking, but I love it when smokers have the freedom to smoke their ass off, as long as it disrupts no one else's day.
Yep, look at him smoking that illegal tobacco.
Yep he's a real rebel alright... being against weed and all...
Yes, tang, that actually is being a rebel now.
brabham74 no a rebel is against the establishment... weed is illegal federally
Sorry about the misunderstanding, pu tang. No offense meant. Yes, weed is illegal, federally. Thankfully. Note- the "establishment", is now the left wing nut jobs, who favor legalization of drugs. I'm quite "libertarian" in that regard, but still, I've been around the block too many times, to not know what a problem that would be in the real world. It's just me, and my life experiences that say such a thing against drugs. How about you, Tang? 60 years of life experiences, actually "using" those poison's, like me, or not? On balance, weed is a monumental negative thing in any society, based on my experience.
As a libertarian, I believe that weed should be 100% legal. The govt has no right to tell us what we can use. I think it was ridiculous that Mr. Prager said there isn't a war on weed. There is, much more than cigars. I dont see people who smoke cigars getting beaten by police and thrown in jail just to get even more beat up and raped. Just saying
Bill Clinton liked flavoured cigars.
David Thegan 😈😈😈
Bwhahaha lol
He also liked to fuck fat interns in his office and then smoke it with a prime minister of a foreign country
I was gifted a cigar last year and enjoyed it, never bought another though until last week. I have had a few so far and started to write down my thoughts on each so I know what I like. I made the rookie mistake of buying longer ones at first, so i went back and bought some shorter ones. Its is really enjoyable and I am glade that you guys talk about this hobby. Keep up the good work!
"there's been a war on cigars but not on marijuana" Ummm have you been asleep for the last 50 years?
DUDE tobacco is Schedule I drug. Schedule I drugs, substances, or chemicals are defined as drugs with no currently accepted medical use and a high potential for abuse. No one in the world thinks tobacco has any accepted medical use and every one knows its addictive and causes cancer.
Sticky Red Candy Boy What dafuq are you talking about?
Smfh Pregger is being an idiot on this issue. Gunna lose his youngins if he doesn't shape up his logic.
Cosmic Error have you been asleep for the last year? Cigars are being criminalized all over the nation while marijuana is being legalized. Have you not seen the increasing number of places where you can now sell marijuana but can no longer sell cigars?
Darude Rocket What dafuq are you talking about?
