Welcome, Chain_Gang.
Glad to have you here!

I have approved all of your posts awaiting moderation. Our apologies for any delay. That should go away. Just a little measure to protect the forum from nefarious spammers.

Thanks! Tats are my current favorite brand, with the Black being my go to. Any tips on how to score the limited releases? I scoured the net for the MBS, but don't want to drop $40 for one that's included in a kit. Smithfield is a pretty cool place. We go there at least once a year to do the Windsor Castle Park and check out the cool downtown area. If you come to Virginia Beach, check out Emerson's for a great selection and nice lounge.

No good tips here as I don't typically chase the limited stuff, other than the TAA releases which are widely available. I just don't see the point of chasing something I'll only be able to smoke once and never get again. So I'm not much help with that. @SoCal gunner is your man for that sort of thing - he's a baller that buys every limited thing that comes along. He's a big Ezra Zion guy at the moment but I'm trying to get him on some decent smokes

I've bought from Emerson's online but never made it to the actual store. From the website it looks like they do have a top notch humidor selection. One of these trips I'll get a chance to break away for a visit.

I've got How I Built This favorited, but haven't listened to it in awhile. I only remember listening to the Shake Shack episode. My wife and I were huge Shake Shack fans and it origin was interesting.

Haven't heard of the cigar podcast you mentioned but will look into it. I've got a buddy who shares an office with who listens to a youtube cigar show (cigars daily maybe). I used to listen to Cigar Dave, and still have his show favorited, but haven't listened to him in a while.

I enjoy checking out new and interesting podcasts. Let me know if you'd like more recommendations.

Please check out the Church Of What's Happening Now - it was my daily ritual to listen, and I'm trying to go back to Church daily. Be aware though, it's pretty vulgar, but raw with real conversations, and a good insight into mostly the host's life, the comedy industry and lives of comedians.

The HIBT episodes with Daymond John and Herb Keller are awesome.
