Room101 Johnny Tobacconaut 10th Anniversary Begins Shipping
Turns out fires on the ground are just as problematic for Johnny Tobacconaut as they are in space. This release was significantly delayed by the March fire at the AJ Fernandez factory.

Partagas Y Nada Más Santiago Robusto
For the newest offering in its Partagas line, STG turned not to its factory in Santiago de los Caballeros, Dominican Republic, but to Tabacalera William Ventura, which is located in the city's Tamboril municipality. The name translates to "Partagas and nothing more."

Yeah, this. I mean, I’m also here to scream my beliefs at whoever will listen, but the beliefs I’m referring to are things like, Albert Belle should have been the 1995 AL MVP and Hook is the best baseball movie
an overlooked aspect of all these “bluesky is an echo chamber” pieces is that the writers bizarrely think that the only reason people use social media is to talk about politics, which is true only for a subset of users

Some great #STLBlues stuff in this interview!
Bill Armstrong is the first GM we've had on the pod. Really enjoyed this conversation with him. Among things discussed:
- How GMs make trades
- The BOLD text that Jordan Binnington once sent him
- Draft day suits
- A great Buddy Cianci story
