- The one thing we know about life is that none of us are gettin' out of this alive. We're all in it together. Instead of concentrating on our differences and our disagreements, we should spend more time focusing on our shared joys and experiences. Cigars have been one of the best ways I have found to bring people from all different strata of life together with a common bond.

I don’t know about you guys but I could listen to this guy for hours. Imagine if the world was filled with true men like this. It be great
In all honesty I think the world is full of people like dwayne and there's many such people on RUclips. They are interested in a wide variety of subject's far removed from cigars and the likes but the theme is always the same. Find your bliss and share it with others. The variety here is a prime example from cooking to wrangling to cigars. Just a genuine appreciation for life and all its nuances. Real soul food!
But what about the Pakistani Gender studies? And the Soy milk?
Yeah well there's only a few of us left and what's left has got a woman or ain't getting one ever so plenty to talk about either way there's hours of conversation
True man...God, pls send one my way some day. Thx ya'll
@@TheProfessionalAmateur91 get that shit outta here lol forget those social concerns here
I remember my first cigar. My Sgt came up to me while deployed. I was missing home. Troubled by the combat I'd encountered. The brothers I'd lost. He came up to where I was sitting and tossed me a cigar. (A Romeo and Julieta) and his punch and matches. He was KIA three days later. EVERYTIME I light up a cigar, I think of that cigar. When people ask why I love cigars as much as I do, I say "Gone but never forgotten" RLTW!!
thank you for your story and for serving. i'm sorry you lost your friends. God bless
All the way brother!
If only we knew when we impacted others lives so much. Thank you.
Trip out, same type of cigar sonny gave our guy here! Maybe I should put down the American spirits and try cigar instead 🤔 If I do, my 1st shall be a Romeo Y Julieta
This comment is awesome and cringe af at the same time.
73 yrs old and I smoked cigarettes early in life but haven’t touched one in 25 yrs. Had an occasional grocery store cigar after that but again haven’t had one of those in years. Today, thanks to you, I went to the Cigar Lodge in McKinney, Texas. Never been to a place like this but I walked in and was immediately greeted by 7 of the regulars. I told them I was new to this lifestyle but I wanted to join the “Brotherhood of the Leaf”. About half of them knew what I was talking about but soon they all knew what this brotherhood is about. Mike running the store showed me everything he had. He made some suggestions and then I pulled out a piece of paper with two cigars you had talked about on your channel. I settled on a Charter Oak Connecticut Shade. Bought a cutter and torch and I’m never turning back. Sat down and got to know everyone there. Thank you for introducing me to the “Brotherhood of the Leaf. If you and Momma ever come this way ya’ll have a place to stay.
Welcome brother. I’ll see you there next time.
Welcome, sir.
Oliva Serie V Melanio Maduro is one of the finest cigars I've ever had, I'd highly reccomend it.
Great story, and I’m happy for you.
This man alone has helped me communicate with more pride and happiness to strangers and just be an all around good fella
I’m a huge cigar smoker and lover , was born in France then moved in that magnificent country 15 years and it’s because guys like you and stories like that one that every single day I wake up and realize that I’m more in love with USA than the day before. My friends call me the French cowboy and now be American citizen is the proudest thing that ever happened to me . Thanks man for your amazing videos 🇺🇸🤟🇺🇸🤟
From a French Cowboy to another, I’m glad to share this country with ya! I’ve got a cigar for you if you’re around Pennsylvania someday.
Welcome aboard brother
I can feel my chest hairs growing from listening to this man. Salute!
😂
THANKS FOR A GOOD LAUGH! i UNDERSTAND!
I'm a woman and gratefully I can't relate 😂😂😂
Keep the Cigar stories coming. Duane your stories always hit the right place. I love the way of the brothers of the leaf.
God Bless.
The cigar bar/lounge, and/or sharing a smoke together really is the last bastion of a true neutral social congregation, in America.
A lounge just opened right down the street from my house and its changed my life.
Its helped me start turning things around and being a better man.
If you're in your mid 20s or older and you feel lost, find a cigar lounge and just go.
There's not one negative thing about it.
The cancer it can cause ?
@@spencerh2860society is cancer, coke zero is cancer, going for a jog in a city is cancer, having a cell phone is cancer, life is short and you could die at any moment. Statistics show that a cigar a day is a negligible risk, still a risk but not a severe one, while alcohol is classified as a toxin and kills more people than cigars. I've just gotten into cigars, maybe smoked about 10 so far, and the relaxation I've had and the deep conversation I've had while smoking cigars is worth a negligible cancer risk. I've seen fights everywhere except for a cigar lounge, go check one out for yourself, even just to look. It's nothing but adults sitting back, getting off their cell phones and appreciating that small pocket in time.
I've been smoking cigars for 35 years and this guy is spot on.
As a fellow member of the Brotherhood Of The Leaf, I would have to say this is the best description of this unspoken bond. “Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up.”
Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 NIV
Amen
Amen 🙏🏼
KJV is untouched and unchanged. It’s true 🙂
Amen
This is so true. We had a gunsmith in out community. He was a cover story in gunsmith international or some magazine with a similar name. He was always such a serious looking man. He always seemed isolated and a hermit, one of those guys who hated life and people. I was in the need for a gift for my son, and a friend suggested this guy. He lived on his farm about 15 miles from town. I drove out and knocked on his door. He comes to the door and seemed a little irritated. Told him what I needed and he told me he would come over to the shop in a minute. I has woke him from his nap. He come over and sold me the hand gun I wanted, then offered me a cigar. We sat in his lounge at the shop, had a smoke, and some of the best conversation I have ever had. He went in his gun vualt and brought me out a cigar to take with me, and I left with more respect for the man than I thought was possible. I still have remorse wishing I would of gotten to know him sooner. It wasn't but a year or so after he passed away. But I will never forget that first smoke.
This guy is cut from a different cloth. A real stand-up guy. Love listening to his stories.
Duane, I recently lost an old cowboy friend from west Texas and you remind me so much of him. He smoked H. Upman's and we would drink whiskey out of old jelly jars. Time seems to get away from us and I enjoy hearing your stories (and reminders) that we all need to slow down and pay more attention to the important things. I am sure glad I found your channel and look forward to the next video. And I see others feel the same with your subscribers over 55k. 👍👍
I found this channel by accident and I know little to nothing about wrangling or even horses in general, but something about Dwayne's stories and how he speaks is very interesting and even relaxing. I really appreciate his values and the simple lessons in life that he's trying to teach the younger people like myself. I'm only 19 and tbh I haven't had a whole lotta life experience, but these videos really speak to me. Hope he decides to do more.
64 years old here and i can tell you he speaks truth. Continue listening and enjoy. Pass it on.
I'm a former Firefighter and I've found a similar brotherhood in a few areas.Bourbon, Guns, Boots, and Car Collecting. It seems to erase the BS of differences and y'all can just be human beings to each other. The Fire Dept was the same way. Guys from all different backgrounds learning to live and work together above what the outside world wanted to make you believe about that type of person. Thanks for the story, it brought back some great memories I've had over the years.
Agree totally…retired Firefighter myself.
"Not allowed at the grownups table." LOL Love it! Thank you Dwayne! 🤣
Amen. Was feeling awkward about how I’ve gravitated away from church and have found more community in the local cigar lounge. It’s a brotherhood and I love it. Thanks brother.
Hope you find a real church that you can fellowship with some guys with. All the best.
Church is a scam
Don’t give up on it brother! Look another and let the good Lord point ya in the right direction
@@SludgeManCometh how is it asanine brother ??
Praying you find a nice church with brothers to smoke with there as well.
Sparking my leaf at the grown up table haha
Man...this is one of the real good videos that I've watched...much better than many others...i could listen you for hours. it's like I know you, in fact, I've already downloaded the video. I smoke cigars and I think just like you. There is a real good brotherhood around the leaf that is unique. Greetings from Chile....
never was close with my grandpa before he passed, and didnt grow up with a father. Life lessons like these is what more young men like me need to hear in this fast world.
"We don't care" is right. We are all brothers and sisters in Christ. Brothers of the leaf, I would be proud to have that on a t shirt. Thank you and the Mrs n keep doing what you're doing.
True that brother, we are all united in the leaf in Christ's name! Sew that into a tapestry because that's the truth of it all, signed sealed delivered. Cigar lounge.
Man, the grown ups table analogy hits like a truck. I mean it's so simple and profound at the same time. I wish I could come up with something that smart myself.
😃👍Danke für das Video.
Ich bin von Deutschland nach Dänemark gereist.
Abends rauchte ich eine zigarre und fühlte mich gleich zuhause.
Brotherhood of the leaf.
He's not wrong. I started smoking cigars as a result of 3 inexpensive cigars I received as a gift. I mostly smoked on the golf course, and almost everytime, another golfer would strike up a conversation, give me a cigar that I just had to try, maybe 2 or 3 for later, all the simple pleasure of sharing the brotherhood of the leaf. I finally had to give them up due to lung issues....but some days I really would love to just to take a nit of time, just to visit.
I am born and grew up here in Singapore, fast-paced, bustling Asian city and I needed to relax. Stumbled upon your page. I used to smoke cigarettes for years and discovered cigars only about 5-6 years back. I have been to different parts of europe and asia but never been to the US. I've always wanted to. I grew up watching cowboy movies with my dad and maybe that is one of the reasons why I was attracted to hear what you have to say about the cigar. I love the messages you bring across, may you always be in good health and success in all your endeavors. BOTL!
This is one of the things that my wife and I love the most about the cigar community. Hi class, low class, no class. White collar, blue collar, no collar. Black, white, Spanish. American, Canadian, Mexican. Catholic, Baptist, Jewish. Doctor, commercial pilot, auto mechanic… When you sit down at the lounge there is nothing but people who love cigars. They love to smoke them, they love to talk about them, they love to share them and as long as you feel the same then there are never any questions, just acceptance and camaraderie!
Society could learn a lot from the cigar lounge, hell many churches could learn a lot from the cigar lounge as unfortunate as that may be.
Alaska is one place I need to visit! I want to build a School bus RV baby and travel the States! Pack up my dogs and roll out! Let's go Brandon
My dad was an engineer for the Santa Fe railroad. I was the youngest. We went on trips on the railroad because it was free. When I smell a cigar or pipe I remember the railroad stations. It brings back many memories.
Brother hood of the leaf and of the Briar is real for me. No truer word have crossed my ears in a long time.
Man, this video brought a tear to my eye. God bless you, sir. Greetings from Ukraine.
I hope you are doing well my man. Stay safe
the comedian really screwed you guys up. Could've been safe and sound and the country in ship shape if he hadn't followed his Western masters like a sheep..
One night, as an MC prospect, I was working behind the bar and it got quiet. I was tired and bored, so I spontaneously smoked a gas-station cigar that I found in a drawer. I got it. Romeo i Julietta #3 is now my go-to. Best cigar I ever had was a bandless handmade bought off a guy who was rolling them on a street-side in Munich. Perfumed and mild!!
"What I got was...this is right." Just smoked my 1st cigar last week and that describes it perfectly. I don't have a refined palate either and can't taste subtle hues this and wafts of that but....this is right.
I am not a smoker but I do love you Philosophy in life. It definitely can be applied across everything you do.
Speaking of brotherhoods the Marine Corps birthday is on the 10th. Semper Fi brothers and sisters! God bless you all.
I work logistics in the aviation industry. At the local lounge I frequently rub shoulders with doctors, real estate magnates, law enforcement, hunting and fishing guides....
You are absolutely right. They are an equalizer.
My grandpa who hailed from Pino de Rio, Cuba lived to be 94 years old, he smoked cigars every day quietly pass on in his sleep. He always attributed his longevity to cigars
I feel this same brotherhood feeling you just described when I am skating at the skatepark. we skaters talk to each other all the time, doesnt matter if its a stranger, a newcomer or if its a skater with a higher skill level. we are all equals.
Tonight I’m having the rare occasion of getting to relax by a campfire and have a cigar alone. I knew exactly where to come for a good story and some perspective. Love your videos, Duane.
Today I smoked my first cigar in years. They helped me getting off cigarettes a decade ago and I haven't relapsed ever since.
Right now times have been getting quite rough for me, and I can't lie, a lot of it has been my own fault.
Smoking this cigar has helped me calm down and take my time to think. Just think and figure things out.
And I decided to do it regularly again, like in the years after I quit smoking cigarettes. Just sit down somewhere, take my time, smoke a cigar and think.
I have privately collected and smoked Cigars, Never occurred to me to see it as a social construct, a modern day peace-pipe, But Brotherhood of the leaf must be a thing.
Sounds like an old time preacher to me, my dad was one. I am now 79 years old and I wish I still had him to listen to today.
Some of the best experiences of my life revolved around smoking cigars with lifelong friends and new acquaintances. I started smoking cigars at 18 years old and turned many of my friends onto them. Now I get to enjoy them with my son, who’s 22, and his friends.
You’ve hit it right on the head, it’s a brotherhood.
Cigars... The "great equalizer". You never know who you may share a fine cigar with. Great story !!
Well, these videos are 2 years old, and I can't do anything about partaking in a Wranglers school due to my back issues, but your smoking cigars do resonate with the likes of myself and your videos on said subject! Think I've watched most of what you've put out on smoking and enjoying cigars and the Brotherhood of the Leaf! Down to earth, straightforward, commonsense, and seemingly easy to get along with! My type of people! Have no cigar lounges nor large stores here in SW Wyoming. Order most of mine online and smoke by myself! You're correct about having to slow down and enjoy a cigar and contemplation of life in a relaxing manner! Would it be enjoyable to share with other Brothers and Sisters of the leaf! Sure! But in the end, as long as one enjoys what they're doing, by themselves or with others, that's all that is important! Peace of mind, and relaxing! Good luck with your Wranglers school, and you and your wife enjoy a smoke together for me by a lit camp fire some evening! Jon in Wyoming!
What a man there isn’t many left like him today, god bless you sir
I don’t smoke at all, but I like the smell of cigars and I could just sit there and listen to just about any story you tell, Mr. Dwayne. Please, keep these going. Not only is it so peaceful to hear you talk during these convoluted times, you also have plenty of wise things to say that some of us young guys (and not so young, as my case) could learn. Cheers from Spain!
I've found a very similar brotherhood in the Warrior Poets Society founded by fellow Christian and former Army Ranger John Lovell. Each and every human on earth has more in common than they have different. Just gotta swallow some pride, check some ego, drop some guard and have some respect to find it.
That place is so peaceful.
The spirit behind what you’re saying is what’s going to save us. Thank you for the message.
Thanks Dewayne. As they say, "If I call you brother it is because you have earned my respect". You nailed it brother.
im 28, havent figured out what cigars were all about. Now I see Dwight. thank you.
brothers of the leaf are the most generous people I know.
I'm no cowboy, I ride a steel horse, but it's good to see real men still exist, we are getting few and far between, I am a combat vet and a member of the brotherhood of the leaf, you seem like the type of guy that I would enjoy sitting down and having a beer and a good stogie with. I enjoy your vids, thanks.
I've listened to most of your videos and just ran across this one. It reminded me of a time in my life when I ended up in northern Idaho, trying to shake off a bad marital breakup. After some time up there I was invited to an 'invitation only' gathering of men that met on Wednesday evenings. It was called 'The Roost' and was held on the upper floor of an old barn, an old hay loft that had been converted into a man cave, sporting a circle of couches, chairs, and a wood stove for heat when needed. I nervously walked up the narrow stairs to the loft and was met by around a dozen guys, all of whom were Jesus followers, sweet-smelling cigars, and good whiskey. Even though I was a pipe smoker, I was welcome. The Roost was to become the epitome of a real men's group where deep issues of life were discussed, cigars and pipes (at least one pipe) were smoked, and good whiskey was sipped. It was wonderful and I often wish there was one on the island where I live. By the way, the reason the group was invitation only and somewhat secretive was that a number of the attendees were on a church staff. People in their churches just wouldn't understand...
Grew up running to the shop to buy our old neighbour his cigars when he'd been on a whiskey binge and ran out of smokes. I always remember the smell of his cigars hitting me smack in the face as soon as he opened the door. I loved that smell. I'm a non smoker but I did get to smoke a few cigars at parties in the 90s but that was it. Just today I got that whiff again from a passerby in town & boy the memories came flooding back to the point I went on ebay to source a few decent cigars. Google knew what I wanted & now my youtube is full of cigar recommendations 🤣 but I'm binge watching your vids as you tell it best 👌.
Amen my brother. I was out fishing in my little boat. smoking my cigar. and went out deeper waters to see what they where catching. guys says. don’t know what your smoking. damn it smells good. Thank you. brother of the leaf.
Cheers to the leaf... I've had similar experiences with nice folks and truly have enjoyed those spontaneous moments. Thanks for the talk.
Greetings from Kharkiv, Ukraine 🇺🇦 Well, this story is beautiful. The stories actually. I had similar experience with wine 🍷 - sometimes, you can find people that share the same passion and right away you have something common to discuss. Although it’s something different and important around cigars. The whole experience is calming. I do agree that if it’s anything that ties us together, it should be cherished. Cigars are so good when viewed from this angle. Thank you mr. 🤠
Слава Україні Боже Благославии Україні Sending love to Ukraine from the United Kingdom
Exactly how I feel about cigars . I go to my local lounge at least once a week and always get into conversations with all kinds of people .
This has 100% been my experience smoking pipes and cigars with other men. Good stuff.
Hey man, you're right about our country being torn apart, and I appreciate your message here.
I started watching your channel because my wife wants to ride horses for our honeymoon and, to be honest, I am a little afraid of horses. I figured I'd watch you and learn about the animals and people who love them.
I've learned a lot and feel pretty good about the coming experience now, so thanks.
I also have made a personal pledge to reach out to my fellow Americans, because we all are a tribe here in America, a bickering tribe, but a tribe nonetheless, and try to express my humble love for all of the people I live here with. Regardless of their political leanings.
I will love them all as best I can.
A brotherhood indeed.
I found this brotherhood during the pandemic during some long walks while I was unemployed. The community of BOTL/SOTL has been a part of my life since that first cigar. I’ve met some great people. Hope everyone has a good smoke today.
Best thing that worked for me was I was a bourbon and cigar guy in the Army. As a older E4 cpl I found the only other bourbon and cigar guy in my company. The commander. So after a rough day we would have a counseling session behind a building or our of view out in the field. Learned alot and laughed alot during those time.
Crazy how one experience of comfort and acknoeledgement if not basic belonging reverberates through the years.
this hit me ina spot i never knew i had. my first duty station in the military i got deep into cigar collecting and it allowed me to create even better bonds with the guys i served with. makes me miss those close friends on a deeper level than i ever thought. its something so simple but it allows you to just "smoke and joke" as we say in the military, but it becomes a very melancholy, but happy memory of times shared with people just being human beings in the moment
As a new member of “The Brotherhood of The Leaf” I really enjoyed your video Duane! Thank you for sharing your thoughts, they resonate with many of us!!
Over cigars we are all equals. Cigars break down barriers, set differences aside and make us more tempered. I truly believe all important matters should be settled over cigars.
My buddy introduced me to cigars. First ever cigar was a Java Maduro from Rocky Patel. I’ve loved them ever since. Same thing when I visited my brother and his wife’s family for thanksgiving. His brother in law brought some cigars to the function and let me have one. It was a Fat Bottom Betty from Deadwood. There truly is a bond in the Brotherhood of the Leaf
Your not allowed to sit at the grown ups table....classic!! I love it.
Love the video Dewayne. Couldn't agree more!!
Loving this content brother. One of the very best parts of cigars is how they're "the great equalizer", they bring people together and inspire deep thought. There's no better time to make new friends and no better time to instill strength in old friendships than while smoking cigars.
Glad to have found you here, Matt. Dwayne is the single person who got me into cigars (properly), and it was by accident. His most popular video is what I stumbled across, and then I went down the rabbit hole. “Why I smoke cigars” is what did it. And before long, I found your channel.
When you connect these channels together…that’s the resource that changes the lives of people who already have a lot of life together…but still need a nudge. It’s been a great journey.
I was in Yuma Arizona last week and heard some people partying at the hotel so I went over and they were sitting outside , I was smoking a cigar and there were two couples of Mexican/Asian decent , the one asked me about cigars so I went and got him one , showed him
How to cut and light and smoke , we hit it off and became friends !! Pretty cool , he was really thankful
He is BRILLIANT> I love him, just discovered him...he brightens up this rainy day here in Somerset, UK!
Not allowed at the grown ups table. Lol. Love that!!! My man. I’m definitely a tabbaconist myself good sir. Cheers to you sir!!! 🇺🇸💪
I'd be honoured to sit down by the campfire and join this man for a cigar. Just talking about philosophy, the world, family, adversity-everything. He's like a mentor and a friend rolled into one. Thank you, Dewayne. Hope our paths cross one day 🙏🏽🔥💪🏽
Que bueno que hoy en día se pueda traducir los videos y no perdernos de estas grandes anecdotas y sabias palabras de este grande
Saludos desde Argentina !!
Back in 2005 I was living for awhile in Puerta Vallarta Mexico. While there I came across this tobacco shop where they rolled there own cigars, I watched this old man sitting in the sun rolling cigars. After a bit I bought a couple of cigars and then left. The next day in the afternoon I went down to a beach, there was a vender there selling cerveza, I got one, borrowed a chair and sat near the shore and smoked that cigar, an hour or so later I went back to the vender to get another beer, he said to me "senor, you know how to smoke a cigar". I was 55 years old and that made me feel like a real grown up for the first time in my life. Brotherhood of the leaf, peace and love
This dude hit it right on the money. Having this one commonality allows us to know a little bit about the guy across the table from you. I was in Greece on a trip a few tears back and bought a partagas at a little cigar shop in a small town. I was getting ready to light up and saw a group of guys sitting on the waterfront. When they saw my cigar they beckoned me over. It was just a random group of traveller's. Some on cruises, some locals, some from adjacent countries. We sat together in fellowship. Most spoke English. After an hour of cigars and adult beverages we were like any other group of cigar guys. Talked a little bit about cigars, sports, wives. The usual stuff.Like the guys this cowboy described.
My home cigar club the Cigar Ambassadors has judges and it has janitors. It has senators, and it has street sweepers. But we all have one common thing together. And the fellowship we share has a value beyond measure. It's hard to describe but I'll wager every cigar guy or gal that reads this or watches the video above will be shaking their head in understanding before they finish this. Long Ashes my friends. Enjoy every second of it, the best hour of the day. When we share some time together and shake off the days problems. No matter any where you are. We all get it!
Kevin
you always tell a good story that even this old dog can relate to. I smoke cigars and was a Lawman for 22 years. thank you for great stories you share.
Only 5 minutes in and I’m stifling laughter out of amazement
Romeo Y Julieta damn good Cuban cigar, especially in 1993 !!
This is the second time I've watched this video, and I got even more out of it this time. From one Brother of the Leaf to another, thanks for the content.
Amen, brother. Love your style.
Dare I say "men" like Dewayne are a dying breed, OfCourse kudos to his lady behind the camera. Amen to the "Brotherhood of the Leaf"
You're a great store teller. Im a new subscriber. Feels like im camping with my family around the camp fire. shooter the crap.
This title is bad ass
Dwayne, this was great! What a wonderful recollection of the past. I could sit by a fire and listen to you tell your history with mama and the world for days. You are the best!
Dewayne if I ever get to hit the road and see more of this country one day it would a dream to have a smoke with you and a cup of coffee from the fire kettle.
I do like this Law Enforcement story. I'm a patrol officer in the Pacific Northwest.
This was the most wholesome video I‘ve seen in a long while. Its just one sincere down to earth person talking from the heart. We are missing exactly that nowadays. Keep doing what you’re doing. Thank you sir !
Love this. I'm not a smoker, but I love this. Even if I don't smoke, there is a remarkable thing about pipe and cigar smokers. They are thinkers and tend to be brothers. George Bruno introduced me to the concept. I just found this channel and I already love it. Thanks my friend. You're a real gentleman, and follow the gentleman's code.
What I enjoy about the seegar brotherhood is that in one burn session. We solve all the worlds problems. Mahalo for this aloha.God bless.
Romeo Julieta is a good cigar. I also like CAO brand. Padilla makes some nice ones too. Thanks for the videos. I am glad I found you. I too wear a cowboy hat and boots. They are just plain comfy and kinda my trademark. I been wearing them for years now. I also play guitar and have made a little money playing n the stage. Now, I play simply to enjoy it often with fellow players. OLD county music mostly. I also know a couple bluegrass players who join us at times. I am in upstate NY but, if I had my druthers, I would be in Texas. Being almost 67 now, that prolly won't ever happen. Thanks for sharing your wisdom!
Good afternoon sir! Brother of the leaf (and briar). I enjoyed this video. I was raised in South Central Tennessee and now live for past 43 years in West Tennessee. I began career in public safety same as you at age 26 and back in those days worked alone even before attending the academy. Things have surely changed. I have friends who smoke cigars and pipes and it truly is a brotherhood of the leaf. I'm very familiar with your area in Tennessee. Great video and keep 'em coming.
This is what it's all about! Servicemen who know their purpose in this CRAZY world we live in. We can all meet each other in the lounge, and converse as equals, and that's what it's all about.
This is a great video sir, I recently starting smoking cigars and the amount of fellowship it's brought is honestly amazing. It really brings people together and we need more of that.
I found this brotherhood (pipe smoking) late in life at 72! Thank you for your insight and long live The Brotherhood of the Leaf!
This man is what you call a sage
A old, wise man
this is amazing. i would love to hear more stories from you!
I love this format of storytelling. Keep it coming.
I couldn’t agree more!!! Here, here!!!
I like how you think my friend. And I am a barber who is a member of The Brotherhood of the Leaf. I love to talk cigars in my one man shop. Thanks for all you do, God bless....
