Yeah, you ain't kidding, man. It's fucking this blows.

Nevertheless, I'm good. A little tired last night we after her, but we'll get through it.

He's gonna make it.

**Gio** (0:49)
But yeah, this weather blows.

**Jerry** (0:51)
Geo, why don't you introduce our guest, buddy?

**Gio** (0:53)
We got the lovely Rachel, president of Lockhouse and the one, the only Buffalo Bourbon babe.

**Rachel Glover** (1:00)
Hi, guys.

**Jerry** (1:02)
Hey, Rachel, what's up?

**Rachel Glover** (1:02)
Hi, you know, just really enjoying this weather, you know. It's great.

**Rachel Glover** (1:09)
It's exciting.

**Jerry** (1:09)
She's been bitching about it for the last 10 minutes. 10 minutes she's been bitching.

**Rachel Glover** (1:13)
I really hate it because it's wet and it's March and I don't like it.

**Jerry** (1:17)
It's 3-3-23. I mean, we should be getting ready for spring, right?

**Caleb** (1:22)
St. Patty's Day, we gotta get ready for that.

**SPEAKER_6** (1:24)
The Patty's Day, we need some green.

**Gio** (1:26)
They're removing the ice boom, so that means winter is almost done.

**Jerry** (1:30)
That sounds fake. I thought that, what the hell is the groundhog's name?
Phil? Yeah.

**Gio** (1:35)
Punxsutawney Phil?

**Jerry** (1:36)
Yeah, Phil.
Phil saw a shed. I thought we had six more weeks of winter.

**Gio** (1:40)
So, no, they...

**Jerry** (1:41)
That actually was four weeks ago. So we are coming up on the six-week mark.

**Gio** (1:46)
So, no, they pulled the ice booms from Lake Erie, so it should actually... Usually when they do that, they don't anticipate any crazy storms off the water, so anything else is just gonna be pretty mild from here on out.

**Jerry** (2:02)
Well, Gio, without further ado, before we get into this awesome episode we have, what are we smoking today, buddy?

**Gio** (2:11)
Got a fun one today. The Liga Provada Velvet Rat by Drew Estate. As always, got a nice little smoke here from the humidor.
And to get into the details of it here, it's a Nicaraguan cigar. It's out of the Drew Estate Factory Connecticut Broadleaf Rapper, Brazilian Mata Fina Binder and Honduran and Nicaraguan filler. It's going to be a Lonsdale with a 46 by six and a fourth ring gauge.
And when these came out in October of 2012, they were $13.95. Good luck.

**Jerry** (2:46)
What did you pay for them?

**Gio** (2:47)
$25 a stick.

**Jerry** (2:48)
$25 a stick?

**Gio** (2:50)
Yeah.

**Caleb** (2:51)
Well, thank you, sir. I appreciate that. Look at that bad boy.

**Jerry** (2:54)
Rachel, you having a cigar?
You don't know what to do? Yo, somebody help her out, man. Somebody help her out here, man.

**Caleb** (3:01)
Jesus Christ.

**Jerry** (3:02)
Caleb, Caleb, be a gentleman.

**Caleb** (3:04)
Jesus.

**Jerry** (3:05)
Is it cut? Okay, at least it's cut.

**Caleb** (3:08)
The V cut.

**Jerry** (3:09)
All right. The V cut.

**Rachel Glover** (3:10)
Nice.

**SPEAKER_9** (3:10)
Oh, God.

**Gio** (3:13)
We're just going to let that be. Just puff on it like a fish.

**Jerry** (3:18)
Don't inhale it.

**Rachel Glover** (3:19)
I'm not that dumb.

**Jerry** (3:20)
Okay, I'm just saying don't inhale it.

**Rachel Glover** (3:21)
I mean, I'm not like, no, that's smart. But I'm not that dumb.

**Gio** (3:28)
We tried to find a mild one for it.

**Jerry** (3:29)
It's just like half lit.

**Rachel Glover** (3:30)
I don't know what's half lit.

**Rachel Glover** (3:34)
We're going to figure this out together.

**Gio** (3:35)
This is teamwork.

**Rachel Glover** (3:36)
Teamwork makes the dream work.

**Caleb** (3:38)
Right. There you go.

**Jerry** (3:41)
What an expression.

**Rachel Glover** (3:42)
What a time to be alive.

**Caleb** (3:44)
I hope this cigar doesn't put me on my ass like the one last night. I was definitely feeling it last night.

**Jerry** (3:49)
So Caleb, last night, the dude just starts like, I'm not feeling that great, man.

**Caleb** (3:53)
You got candy in the house?

**Jerry** (3:56)
I'm like, I got pizza and wings. He's like, yeah, that'll work.

**Gio** (4:00)
What'd you guys do?

**Jerry** (4:00)
Just walks right in.

**Caleb** (4:02)
We did the leaf supreme.
