Hey Gang,

Just going to pop in here. Thanks for the comments and feedback of the show. We completed our first 13 weeks and what a learning experience it was. It definitely is a work in progress. We are gearing the show to be more of a Lifestyle show, and being we are all into cigars that is part of our theme.

In our light it up section we talk about the cigars we will be smoking that morning. Yes, we cannot smoke in the studio. We are currently in construction of a new 4000 sqft free standing building that will be our NEW headquarters due to open next year. We are building a studio in the store and our plan is that the show will be done remotely in our store done in front of a live audience where WE CAN SMOKE. =)

The new 2- hour format will MANY new segments such as

The Bloggers Corner: We invite different Bloggers each week to come on the air and review a cigar giving their unbiased opinion.

The Fray: A short section dealing with current political climates

Ask Lady M: Another short section in Lady M replying to emails or callers seeking relationship advice

Dummy Dialers: you will have to listen to these yourself because if i explain it to you, you would never believe me.

All in all guys, everything we try to do is about having a good time. That is the mood we try to express on the show. Your feedback is always appreciated and will help us make a better show overall. I look forward to any comments as we get a few of the new 2 hour shows out there.

Neoflex,...Guilty as charged. If I am going to be stuck in a studio for 2 hours, Lady M is definitely good to look at and she does add the sensitive maternal side to the show. She has a terrific fan base and some hardcore followers already. As far as her being a stretch for a pretty face......well I guess I should be hanging out with you on the
weekends! =)

Best Regards Gang. keep Smokin!

The 2 hour show will be nice to have. 1 hour goes by way to quickly.

thechrisdotcom · 09-27-2011, 11:12 AM

And before a mod beats me to it...

Welcome to the board, be sure to post in the introduction thread.

09-27-2011, 11:23 AM

Chris,
Just processed myself in new member area. Thanx.

You are absolutely right about the 2 hours. That was the number one complaint we got from everyone. At first we thought ...."wow..what r we going to talk about for an hour"

We soon found ourselves running out of time every show and cutting segments we wanted to air. So we are definitely exited about the new format.

I was just messing with you about the intro stuff.

neoflex · 09-27-2011, 01:30 PM

Thanks for chiming in Abe and giving us some insight of what will become of the two hour show and sorry if I offended you but I was just giving my honest input. I do feel like the show if getting better every week as I mentioned earlier. I imagine it can be challenging to put an entertaining show together live every week where you don't get to cut down and edit content. I know I wouldn't be able to knock it out of the park right out of the box. Someone just asked for an opinion and I gave mine honestly. Sometimes being up front and honest does have it's drawbacks. I will also be honest and say I have listened to every show so far and plan on continuing to listen and watch how it developes as it is definitely headed in the right direction and improving. And no it's not like I am not hanging out with supermodels every weekend by any means and I don't doubt that Lady M has her fan base. A woman who smokes cigars can be very appealing in itself to many but I honestly feel like she has yet to add any useful content to the show other than being the female voice. Again, just being honest even if it makes me the bad guy. I am not saying anything here that I would be afraid to tell you in person. Hell, my wife tells me all the time I am too blunt at times and should consider using a filter when speaking.

I do wish you guys the best of luck with the show and look forward to the longer shows and when you are able to broadcast from your own studio as you will be able to give instant reviews and feedback on what you are smoking as your working your way through sticks. Again, hopefully I did not offend you as that was not my intention as I know when things are posted on a public forum that anyone can read them and never doubted that you yourself may have read my feedback. I guess I could have and should have kept my opinions of Lady M to myself but again, I really need to learn to use a filter.

09-27-2011, 02:20 PM

Neo brother,

No offense taken at all. In fact we welcome the criticism.....It is the only way we can improve to make the show better. No filter needed buddy.

I just thought you might of been harsh on Lady M....while she is new to Radio, she knows enough about Smokes (She Manages our Montecristo Lounge at the PGA National Resort), but your are right...she definitely needs to work her personality more into the show. I just felt your comment about her not being good to look at was a little rough. In my best football playing heyday, I woulda been lucky to snag a gal like Lady M.

All in all brother, keep the comments coming and hopefully we will make a better show for all!

Regards,

Abe

Point taken and your right I could have and should have left that part out... Thanks again for jumping in and giving us some insight of what's to come.

irratebass · 10-24-2011, 11:11 AM

I listened this weekend and I enjoyed the show, I didn't win the "media word" prize which was one of the reasons I listened I won't lie....I'm poor, but I still enjoyed the show and I hope I can tune in again this Saturday.

Thanks Abe.

thechrisdotcom · 10-24-2011, 11:13 AM

Shows are a lot better now that they're 2 hours long.

Dumby Dialers are funny, I just wish they would change the sound drop when it starts. Lady M singing the intro to it or whatever it is is annoying. It's kind of cheesy.

Blak Smyth · 10-24-2011, 11:24 AM

I might have to give this a listen tonight!

x man · 10-24-2011, 11:43 AM

I enjoy the interviews with cigar industry execs.
The call in from Fuente after the fire was great.
Great place and the nicest people, ive been to the shop
and met the cigar radio stars. Smoked one with Pete Tat there
last year at the Anarchy launch.

I was dying at the one this past Saturday, something about buying some dust or something, but the caller had NO CLUE.

I really enjoyed the interview, too bad the little one was yelling at me to watch him on the swingset since I was outside listening and missed a lot of it including the media word for the giveaway.

CigarSquid · 10-24-2011, 01:24 PM

So this is Saturdays only? 10-12 eastern time?

Well this is a podcast right? So I can download it and listen to it anytime?

MurphysLaw · 10-24-2011, 01:29 PM

Yes, live saturdays from 10-12 eastern, and also available as a podcast if you can't listen live

Jasonw560 · 10-24-2011, 01:37 PM

Ironically, I have downloaded and listened a couple of times when I'm walking in the evening.

Blak Smyth · 11-15-2011, 12:25 PM

I started listening to the podcasts, I am almost all caught up now.
Very intertaining show, can't stand the segway intros or the repetitive commercials.
I do like the cast though and they have some great segments!!!

Hey Mickey was that you that guessed True Romance?
