Episode 242 Burritos, Herfs & The Plague!

Jerry (0:06)

Welcome to Down to Herf, the podcast for cigar smokers, whiskey drinkers, and for the people just looking to kick back, light up, and have a good time. I'm your host Jerry, and I'm joined by, as always, my co-host, Gio, and Caleb. Fellas, fellas, fellas, it is Monday.

It was a long weekend this weekend, did a lot. Woke up yesterday, watched a bunch of football all day, hung out with some friends. Definitely a great day. And now we're here on this fine Monday, just smoking cigars and hanging out.

Gio (0:43)

Yeah, we're doing some podcast work this week. It's one of those busy ones that we have a lot planned for you guys, obviously. We told you we have an upcoming guest, but you know, Saturday, had our boy's wedding got absolutely twisted.

Jerry (0:58)

Speak for yourself.

Caleb (1:00)

I also was at a wedding Saturday. Did a little drinking myself.

Jerry (1:04)

Oh, very cool.

Caleb (1:05)

We were all at weddings.

Jerry (1:07)

How was your wedding?

Caleb (1:08)

It was good. Definitely had a lot to drink in a short amount of time, and well, you know, that's how things go.

Jerry (1:17)

Well, congratulations to all our friends getting married and starting their lives.

Caleb (1:22)

Yeah.

Jerry (1:22)

What more can you say?

SPEAKER_4 (1:23)

Yeah.

Caleb (1:24)

Don't listen to any marriage advice from me.

SPEAKER_4 (1:27)

I mean...

Caleb (1:27)

That's safe to say.

Jerry (1:28)

I think you have a very simple one.

Caleb (1:30)

Yeah, true. That's for sure.

Jerry (1:31)

Like, the simple one for you, that's like the common sense one.

Caleb (1:39)

You know?

Jerry (1:39)

Yeah.

Gio (1:40)

It is what it is. I mean, I just was very happy it all worked out because the stakes were rarer than you guys liked, so they just got passed down to me, and I traded my chicken, so it was a great wedding win for me.

Jerry (1:56)

Gio had a busy weekend, visited Home Depot, had a good time.

Gio (2:00)

Yeah.

Caleb (2:00)

Doing some work around the house.

Jerry (2:02)

Doing a little work around the house.

SPEAKER_5 (2:03)

You can call it that.

SPEAKER_4 (2:04)

This guy's doing stuff around his apartment, man. It's impressive.

Jerry (2:08)

I don't know who... Listen, I'm impressed.

Gio (2:10)

I could turn a wrench.

Jerry (2:13)

Yeah, a lot of football, a lot of things happening this weekend, fantasy hockey's in full swing.

Gio (2:19)

0-1 in that. Crawford got me.

Jerry (2:22)

Yeah, I'm 0-1 as well. It is what it is.

Second highest scoring team, 0-1.

Gio (2:28)

So you lost to the highest scorer?

Jerry (2:30)

Yes.

Gio (2:31)

That's one of those week one shit...

Jerry (2:32)

It's a bad beat. I would have beat any team in the league, except the guy who had more points than me.

Caleb (2:39)

Going into Saturday, I was down like 35, put a 40-bagger up on Saturday and ended up winning by four.

Gio (2:44)

I am on the IR squad right now. Like just everyone on my team is IR hurt or suspended.

Jerry (2:50)

It'll get better. It will. It will get better.

Caleb (2:53)

Long season ahead.

Jerry (2:54)

I was 0-6 last year and I made the playoffs. Yeah.

Gio (2:57)

Well, guys, before we get further down our rabbit hole of tangents as we always do on our lovely little show here, I'm going to take a minute to give a shout out to our title sponsor, Crown Heads, the one, the only. Guys, be on the lookout next week. We are going to have...

Why did this turn down?

Jerry (3:15)

Just keep talking.

Gio (3:16)

I couldn't hear.

Jerry (3:17)

I'm making an adjustment.

Gio (3:18)

Oh. You fucked me up here. I got to... Well, anyways, guys, be on the lookout next week. We're going to have Miguel Chandel live in studio, one of our OG guests on the show.

Awesome guy, one of the most knowledgeable people in the cigar industry. Can't wait to have him back. It's been way too long and we're going to be having a blast like we usually do. And that's it, guys, small crown heads. Get into their good stuff. Decimo 2026 is going to be coming to stores soon. I know they're waiting to announce when that's going to ship. And then they have a ton of releases this year that kicked ass. Marikana, the World Cup Cigar, Moonflower. The list goes on. And don't forget about the regular core stuff that they did. Last year's big release, Broadway, La Imperiosa, Mildias, Mildias Maduro all re-branded. And Tennessee Waltz, Jericho Hill too.
