Pipe Smoking 101: Getting Started with $1K... wait what!?

Author: Country Squire Radio July 13, 2022 Duration: 42:28

There are no stupid questions, just stupid people, and two of them are hosting this podcast! Thankfully if there is one thing they know better than most it’s best practices for new pipe smokers. Here we do our best to set you up on your pipe journey right with the spirit of mentorship and community that the Country Squire is renowned for. This week: Getting Started with $1,000!?

Pipe Question: (From Joshua) Hey John David. Was wondering if you already haven’t if you could explain semois pipe tobacco. Yeah have seen it several times and am intrigued. Joshua Warwick - Twin Falls, Idaho

QFQ: (From Pastor Joda) So, my brothers, I present to you “Will it Pipe Tobacco?” The concept is simple, I present a list of flavor profiles and you debate whether or not it would fly as a tobacco blend. It’s not necessarily you dump proposed flavor on the tobacco, though that may be the “case(ing)”. But if there is a way to deliver the flavor with some other form of Tobacco Alchemy, then that is acceptable as well. I realize you may find this idea quite lame and place it directly in the trash folder, if so, no problemo. Will it pipe tobacco?

• Fireball Candy
• Juniper forward Gin
• Muscadine
• Basil
• Peanut butter and jelly

Listener Feedback: (From David) Greetings and Salutations JD and Beau! I am a relatively new listener, having discovered your podcast barely a month ago, while searching the google for information on corn cob pipe customization. I have been devouring your podcast episodes exclusively during my workday, It wasn’t until listening to an episode from just prior to New Years Eve, and you mentioned the new year being 2017 that I realized that I was listening to a 5+ year old episodes…(facepalm). I now listen to the most current episode that’s been released and then go back and continue catching up. I love the way you two interact with other and avoid “current events in the news”. It’s also refreshing that your podcast is not scrubbed of any reference of religion or being religious. It’s OK to love Jesus. I just listened to the episode discussing the history of the pipe cleaner. The nerd in me enjoyed it much more than I should have. I’ll check out the “How It’s Made” you mentioned being on YouTube this evening. I look forward to being able to support the show financially, but until then I’ll continue to enjoy it like those free pipe cleaners in your shop!
