Long day at work.

Yeah, I got to get into that. That sounds great.
Here's why I'm in. And by the way, like I'm
I and I realized cigars smoking is massive, massive? Yeah, yeah,
can I get Can I give you a tangent thing
real quick?
Speaker 7 (02:03):
So a buddy of mine, a buddy of mine works
at a car dealership and told me that there there
was a guy that used to bring He had a
very nice car and he used to bring his car
in like super service, like twice a year or whatever
it was. And he smoked cigars in his car all
the time, but he didn't open the windows.
Speaker 6 (02:22):
Oh god, how bad did that stay?
Speaker 10 (02:24):
Well?
Speaker 1 (02:24):
Not only did it stink, but he would ash all
on the up on the dash on the dashboard that went, yeah,
so every sing.
Speaker 6 (02:31):
We wouldn't even use an ash tray.
Speaker 7 (02:33):
Every six months they'd have to clean this guy's car
and there's no getting to smell out, Like the smell
you're not going to get out.
Speaker 6 (02:39):
But you, like super rich doesn't care.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
I don't care how rich you are. You don't put,
you don't put. You don't just ash cigars and cigarettes
on your dashboard Like that's ridiculous. And he said it
was all over the car, Like it's not like it
all just stayed there. It was all over the car.
But the the thing that's where do you do you, Diane?
Do you find the smell of cigars obnoxious?
Speaker 6 (03:05):
I kind of waver back and forth.
Speaker 5 (03:07):
I love the way they smell when they're not lit,
But sometimes sometimes the smoke can be a bit nune.
Speaker 7 (03:13):
It bothers you, Yeah, it bothers you? Does cigar smoke
bother you? The smell of not the smell of cigars.
Speaker 8 (03:19):
Yeah, though I don't know if the word noxious is accurate, right,
But uh, I'm not a huge fan of it.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
I don't know that I care. I don't know that
I care.
Speaker 5 (03:30):
That's funny when like, because doesn't Tyson still have one
of those like Georgetown tobacco stores that they do have
a closed.
Speaker 6 (03:38):
Room where you can go and smell like the mall.
Speaker 5 (03:41):
Yeah, and you can still out in the hallway of
the mall can still smell it.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
There's no way, there's no way I think there is
inside the mall.
Speaker 5 (03:49):
Unless it recently closed. I feel like it's down one
of those side corridors.
Speaker 7 (03:54):
There's a place in seven corners right by that home
depot in seven Corners. Yeah, is it Dominion Cigars Old
Dominion Cigars, Virginia Cigars Old Virginia, whatever it is, But
that is like, that's a cigar shop that you could
smoke in.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
But there's no way in the mall you're smoking in there.
Speaker 8 (04:16):
I mean, Diane's right there at least used to be.
Speaker 7 (04:19):
Oh, I know that there was a Georgetown Tobacco because
it had the big wooden Indian in it.
Speaker 5 (04:23):
Yeah, I just remember, I don't think you could smoke
walking past there, you could definitely tell people were smoking
cigars in there.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
Yeah, but like, was that thirty years ago?
Speaker 6 (04:35):
I don't think it was that long ago.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
There's a place I don't know the name of it.
Speaker 7 (04:40):
There's a place in DC that's a cigar shop that
you can smoke in, like they have like all the
what do you.
Speaker 5 (04:48):
Call it, the humidor like ventilation of the ventilation and stuff,
the ventilation and stuff.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
And then a buddy of mine lives in Tampa and
they have a cigar shop attached to a bar and
you can like smoke in the you could get a
drink and go into the cigar part. It was eboors City.
That's cool bar.
Speaker 6 (05:15):
We were just in in Cleveland over the weekend. It
was the same thing.
Speaker 5 (05:17):
I was like, where is this cigar smell coming? And
you walked around the corner and next to the bathroom,
it was just a side room. There was no closing
off or anything, because you could definitely smell it into
well into the next room and it was just people
smoking cigars and drinking.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
That's awesome, that's great.
Speaker 8 (05:33):
Didn't you go to one of those in Atlanta?
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Oh I did.
Speaker 7 (05:37):

Speaker 8 (06:00):

Speaker 1 (06:01):
I don't either. I don't either. That's gonna bother me.
Speaker 8 (06:06):
Having a lot of cigar shops also introduced, like vaping
product to what do you mean the ones that are
trying to also generate sales from the newest trends.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Oh, so you can buy a cigar and a vape.
Speaker 6 (06:20):
Yes, I like that. You can get clothes there too,
That is true.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
That is true.
Speaker 8 (06:27):
Did you go to Burn?
Speaker 6 (06:29):
Is that the one in Atlanta?
Speaker 1 (06:31):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (06:33):
Is it?
Speaker 1 (06:33):
That looks right? It was nighttime.
Speaker 8 (06:37):
I couldn't tell you during the day.
Speaker 7 (06:38):
No, wait, go up, go up? Yeah, those seats look right. Yeah,
and Burn makes sense because I'm having a cigar.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
Mm hm, any drink a lot there?
Speaker 8 (06:49):
What does a food taste like? There?
Speaker 1 (06:51):
Smokegar? Now? Can you like? Does does Scott ever have
a cigar?
Speaker 6 (07:01):
He has in the past it's been a long time.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
Not regularly, not regularly.
Speaker 7 (07:05):
When he did try to think back when he would
come home, did that's the smell on him?
Speaker 1 (07:11):
Did that bother you?
Speaker 6 (07:13):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (07:13):
It stinks well obviously, but like like in a bad way.
Speaker 6 (07:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (07:20):
Like there are sometimes where like I don't smoke a
lot of cigars, Like every so often, like at Bigsy
and and and KOs Gar Kurd and Nelly.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
And everybody are getting together, I'll have one. But most
of the time, if they're having one, I'll just sit
and smoke cigarettes. Right, But every so often I'll have one.
Jackie not a huge fan.
Speaker 6 (07:38):
Not a huge makes it worse than cigarettes.
Speaker 7 (07:41):
It's like one big umbrella, Okay, one big umbrella. They're
opening a cigar smoking facility in a place that I
was surprised to read, and they say if this one
is successful, they believe it will open in other facilities
just like it. And for a number of reasons, I
(08:04):
was like, first of all, it's definitely a no smoking facility.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
I know you could smoke outside, but you can't smoke
in there. Used to be able to, but you can't anymore.
Speaker 7 (08:18):
And I thought, the whole reason you can anymore is
they outlawed it. Detroit Metropolitan Airport, the major airport in Detroit.
Speaker 6 (08:28):
I'm relatively newer, right.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
It's got to be within the last twenty five years.
Speaker 7 (08:34):
They're going to open a cigar like a cigar lounge
inside the airport.
Speaker 5 (08:40):
It is like when you used to walk by and
steal the people smoking the cigarettes.
Speaker 6 (08:44):
Never got the classroom.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
We all look so pathetic, pathetic. It's horrible. Like there
are even times you would walk in again, like you
look like.
Speaker 5 (08:54):
You were like walking out for like a wrestling event.
The amount of smoke that would come out.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
It was bad.
Speaker 7 (08:58):
It was bad because you'd open the door would go
So Detroit's going to open a cigar lounge inside the
airport and they're they're working to get all of like
the the ventilation and everything done, but you're still gonna
smell it.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
How did How is that working an airport? Also, it
takes a long time to smoke one and the like.
Speaker 6 (09:20):
It's only for people who have the long layovers.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
Well, it's not like I'm just driving by and I
was like, oh, I'm going to pull in for it.
The airport you can't get into anything, and it's definitely
beyond the security checkpoint.
Speaker 8 (09:33):
I hadn't seen that this was opening. But haven't groups
been fighting this for a while now? So aren't there
billboards up in Detroit? In Detroit, Oh, I don't know
opposing this that have been up for a while.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
So did it pass?
Speaker 8 (09:49):
I didn't know you're telling me new news.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
I thought that it was. I thought I read it's opening.
Speaker 8 (09:55):
I have to pull up these billboards.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
Yeah, here it is door smoke lounge.
Speaker 8 (10:03):
Yeah, look see stop the cigar lounge at DTW say
no to indoor smoking. It couldn't be clear with their message.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Food cigars in close smoking area, state of the art
and handling facility.
Speaker 7 (10:25):
But like I can remember, like when they used to
have those rooms in the airports, Like I'd be on
a flight next to somebody and even I would be
like Jesus, dude.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
A polls that smell like when you're flying.
Speaker 5 (10:41):
A poll that they took in June, seventy seven percent
of people in Michigan opposed this idea.
Speaker 6 (10:46):
How many seventy seven percent? That's a lot in all
of the sun nights, say three quarters?
Speaker 1 (10:54):
But then why because this this? The airport says that
a request for proposals opened up on October first, there's
a deadline of January.
Speaker 7 (11:05):
Well, if the Detroit wane, the non smoker's rights are
saying it's a bad.
Speaker 8 (11:09):
Idea, Tobacco Free Coalition are continuing the fight against that.
Maybe it never sees the light of day.
Speaker 7 (11:20):
Listen, I'm not gonna lie. I've smoked at an airport before,
like outside, and they always send you down where you're
like you're standing like down wind from the buses and it's.
Speaker 6 (11:30):
Like where the dogs are peeing.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
I wish, honestly, I wish.
Speaker 7 (11:35):
No. It's always like there's every bus exhaust where you're like,
I am so lightheaded now, and I know it's not
from this.
Speaker 8 (11:44):
One passenger says, as long as it's closed off and
we can't smell it out here, I'm fine with it. Yeah,
you're going to smell. And there's second hand there's third
hand smoke. No, there's not third hand smoke residue.
Speaker 6 (11:58):
Oh stop, okay, out your hands.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
Yellow. But is this going to be the new thing
in airports?
Speaker 6 (12:08):
I don't know.
Speaker 8 (12:08):
I can't see this catching on or internationally. Is this already?
Speaker 1 (12:12):
Oh that's a good question.
Speaker 7 (12:13):
That's a good question because I from what I read
at least Detroit is the first major airport that's looking
at it in the US.
Speaker 8 (12:21):
Oh, but you don't know globally.
Speaker 7 (12:23):
Globally, I have no idea. Would we be shocked to
find out?
Speaker 1 (12:26):
Well you can't. Can you?
Speaker 5 (12:28):
Like?
Speaker 1 (12:28):
What's a big smoking country?
Speaker 6 (12:30):
France or China? Yeah? China they smoke like crazy. If
I fly into the Gaul in Paris.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
No, I was going for a Chinese one.
Speaker 7 (12:40):
I was like, oh God, the gall is not Beijing,
you had said, Shahi, Yeah, are they smoke?
Speaker 1 (12:46):
Like?
Speaker 7 (12:46):
Is everybody just like I got youa my ass? Well
that's Japan? Maybe there too, but like where everybody's smoking? No,
they have lounges still, do they really? Yeah, I'll get
my pay way to go?
Speaker 1 (13:06):

Corners right by home Depot.
Speaker 9 (13:42):
I couldn't tell you that. Yeah, it's by a local
mall and you just walk past and it actually doesn't
smell too bad when you're walking past the store or whatnot.

But yeah, every once in a while I'll get into
a bottom Beeddies.

It's like a nice dessert chocolate cigar. You try it
one time, all right?
Speaker 9 (14:46):

Now imagine it half that size, more people jammed on
top of each other, and in fifteen minutes you're gonna
sit right next to me on an eight hour flight.
Speaker 8 (15:30):
They Peter Greenberg tells you to go light on the
cologne when you're gonna be begging for someone to bathe
in some sort of perfume if they smell like they've
been in that lounge line.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
Three. Hi, elliot in the morning.
Speaker 10 (15:50):
Hi, this is Stephen.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
Stephen, what can I do for you?
Speaker 10 (15:55):

not Shelley's. It's actually TG Cigars. It's right across from
the convention Center at Tamptonel Northwest and what does it
call actually have It's called TG Cigar like yeah, TG,
And it's one of the oldest businesses in Shaw, actually
(16:17):
black owned h and they have a really large walk
in humidor which is pretty cool. So it kind of
maintains all of the products and they also have food
and you can smoke there. So I actually have worked
with them before and it's kind of crazy how all
the work goes into the ventilation system.
Speaker 5 (16:37):
Uh.
Speaker 10 (16:37):
And then if you want another place you can actually smoke.

going on a cruise in March on the Norwegian Joy
and there is a cigar lounge on the ship.
Speaker 1 (17:17):

Speaker 6 (17:18):
I believe? Doesn't that make sense?
Speaker 7 (17:20):
You know where it makes sense if it's outside, but
you but if they say there's a cigar lounge.
Speaker 1 (17:25):

Railroad show where it feels like you're getting robbed on

That's an up charge to get in there. Yeah, that's
a package.
Speaker 8 (18:32):
You can't just go.
Speaker 7 (18:35):
Also, can I like, for example, the place of Pentagon City?
Speaker 1 (18:38):
What is that old Georgetown? Can I go in there
and have a cigarette?
Speaker 6 (18:45):
What do you think the cigar pio are gonna go? Ah?
Speaker 7 (18:48):
So I told you there used to be this big
charity event and maybe it still goes on.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
They were very very nice people. This isn't a shot
at the charity.
Speaker 7 (18:55):
It was called Little Puff And I used to get
invited to go with my friend Mark and it was
up on top of like where Charlie Palmers was, where
you would like look out and overlook the capitol. It's beautiful, beautiful,
and they would set up shop and then at the
end of the night they would auction off boxes of
cigars for thousands and thousands and thousands of dollars. Yeah, like,
(19:16):
I don't know what's in these cigars, but you used to.
They used to have like a bunch of like different
cigar companies there, and people would walk around and they
like with their little goodie bag and they would drop
this cigar in there and that, and so people would
leave with.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
Hundreds of dollars worth of cigars. Yeah, well you know
who didn't care me Like, I don't know anything about cigars.
I know nothing about them.
Speaker 6 (19:35):
But would you get some and then just give them
to your friends?
Speaker 1 (19:39):
Oh yeah, oh all the time.
Speaker 7 (19:41):
So I would load up a bag and I'd walk
around smoking Marlboroughs and like even the people who were
like in charge of the event would be like, seriously, you.
Speaker 6 (19:48):
Give you the side.
Speaker 7 (19:49):
I yeah, but I was like, what do you care?
Like I'm here, I wouldn't a dick about it, but

So somebody's asking how you didn't go to barney Lounge
when we were at the airport in Vegas.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
What is Barney's Lounge?
Speaker 8 (20:06):
Is it a smoking section inside?

Speaker 1 (20:25):
Oh that's pathetic looking. I don't remember seeing that. I

So there's definitely there's slots inside, yes, and clearly you
can smoke in there. There's a huge smoking It's funny.
All the photos for Google are just people walking by
not believing their eyes. So there's some high top tables.
(20:58):
There's actually a lot of gaming.
Speaker 1 (21:00):
Yeah, but that gaming doesn't look like it's in the
smoking air Oh that's not in the bar.
Speaker 8 (21:04):
This is the the bar. It looks like you're allowed
to vape there too. Yeah, And then the other one
was that is coming up when you search for Barney's
is bud twenty nine? Did you see that when we
were there?
Speaker 1 (21:18):
Is that?
Speaker 8 (21:19):
I'm looking it up.
Speaker 7 (21:20):
By the way, I don't want to go to a
designated area to smoke weed.
Speaker 8 (21:24):
Bud twenty nine refers to the Budweiser Racing Track Lounge,
a designated smoking area located in Terminal one. Yeah, oh see,
this one's not as obvious. It just says Budweiser. This
Bud's for you.
Speaker 1 (21:39):
Yeah, you wouldn't know that's a smoking lounge. How do they?
Oh wait, can you go back?
Speaker 8 (21:44):
Well, signature lounge? How do you know? Oh wait, there
is a signed small sign. What does that say? Smoking?
Speaker 1 (21:52):
But isn't there go back to that other door for.
Speaker 8 (21:54):
Smoking for bar patrons?
Speaker 1 (21:56):
Oh now, I'll take a water.
Speaker 6 (22:00):
You're that guy.
Speaker 8 (22:01):
Why do I remember seeing this either?
Speaker 7 (22:03):
No, where's the there's a picture though that had and
this is where we did the same thing.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
We thought it was bud like like for weed. I
thought there was one that showed a picture of a
of a marijuana leaf with a line through it on
one of the one of the pictures.
Speaker 8 (22:17):
I can understand if that's prohibited by the way. On
the other side, they do a very similar neon sign
that does say.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
Smoking yes, Hi, Elliott the morning, this Yeah, Hi, who's this?
Speaker 7 (22:34):
Hey?
Speaker 11 (22:34):
Why is silt? Yes?
Speaker 8 (22:35):
Sure?
Speaker 11 (22:36):
You mentioned earlier about whether it's popular internationally. So I
just flew home from my honeymoon in Italy and we
flew out of Milan, and in one of the lounges
we were in there was a separate room that was
a smoking ring. And I kid you not, there was
like twenty five to thirty people crammed into like a
(22:57):
twenty by twenty room, all of them just going to
town on cigars, cigarettes, whatever they had. But you did
not smell a thing outside the room.
Speaker 7 (23:08):
You know, when you smelled it, when they were like, oh,
excuse me, I'm sitting right next to you.
Speaker 3 (23:13):
No, you know exactly.
Speaker 11 (23:14):
So I was like, that's a good point, Like I
didn't smell anybody next to me. But I guarantee you
they all reaped of it when they got on the
plane because they packed people in there.
Speaker 7 (23:24):
Absolutely absolutely. You could have told me there was only
ten people in there. But you get ten people in
a packed room with no real air flowing, you're smoking
a cigar.
Speaker 6 (23:37):
Hell, just even smoking.
Speaker 1 (23:38):
A cigarette and listen, I'm the worst. I don't want
to sit and smell that for five hours on a plane.
Speaker 5 (23:46):
It was kind of.
Speaker 11 (23:46):
Funny because right next to the smoking room and a
separate room was a whole room of people sleeping, so
I'm sure they probably got a whip of it, like
through the ventilation.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
Unconscious, dude, How was your How was your How was
your honeymoon?
Speaker 3 (24:01):
It was great.
Speaker 11 (24:01):
We spent about fifteen days between Rome, Florence, Bologna, Milan
and Lake Lugano in Switzerland. It was I want to
go back.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
Good Now were you good? Well? I appreciate you listening
while you were there.
Speaker 11 (24:17):
Yep, yep, always there we.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
Go, all right, very good, very good. Thank you sir.
Even if you were lying, you answered correctly.
Speaker 6 (24:23):
Thank you.
Speaker 8 (24:24):
Do you want me to send you this website airport
smokers dot com.
Speaker 2 (24:29):
It has.
Speaker 7 (24:31):
Every place you could smoke in an airport, and there's
a lot in the US.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
Is there really?
Speaker 8 (24:36):
I'm surprised where somebody on here says Cincinnati. What I
didn't see that?
Speaker 1 (24:43):
Now you can't even get a knife at the outback?
Where am I smoking in Cincinnati? Isn't connected?
Speaker 7 (24:51):
To like the dog walking area.
Speaker 8 (24:57):
I don't see that here. But look at this, I mean,
it doesn't it seem like every states on this list.
Speaker 1 (25:02):
Wow? Is there a place of DCA that I just
don't know about? Is it down that weird walkway between
terminal one and two where there's like artwork in there?
Speaker 8 (25:18):
DCA it says before and after security smoking.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
Forbidden.
Speaker 8 (25:26):
Now it's outside the terminal.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
Yeah, that sucks.
Speaker 8 (25:29):
But what does it say about Richmond?
Speaker 1 (25:32):
Oh, all the way up to the tarmac.
Speaker 8 (25:37):
Only outside?
Speaker 1 (25:38):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (25:39):
Come on?
Speaker 1 (25:40):
How did they seriously? How is there not like the
Marlborough Mall or something.
Speaker 5 (25:46):
Why doesn't the tower look like a big cigarette.
Speaker 8 (25:51):
But it looks like you can.
Speaker 7 (25:52):
So Detroit isn't really well, I guess they're gonna be
the first cigar.
Speaker 8 (25:56):
Bar in Detroit. Its stogy time. But this is this resource.
Let's just check BWI here also without him? Oh my god,
take a no from Vegas?
Speaker 1 (26:12):
No kidding? Can you go in those places and have
a cigar? Though probably not.
Speaker 8 (26:18):
On the actual website for the airport, all they say
is allowed is smoking and vaping. They don't say cigarette smoking.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
Yeah, okay, so I'm smoking.
Speaker 8 (26:31):
I think you're good. So you're going to But are
you going to Barney's.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
I'm going to Barney's. I'm going to Barney's. I like
how that sounds you said.
Speaker 8 (26:37):
It also looked pathetic, it did.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
Line one. I'll go quick Hi Ellie in the morning.

Hi is this being?
Speaker 5 (26:48):

Speaker 1 (26:48):
Hi? Who's ass? Hey?
Speaker 2 (26:50):
This is Tom from Frederick. About twelve fourteen years ago,
I went to the Nashville airport on a company thing
and there's a smoking lounge inside the air port.
Speaker 8 (27:00):
You paid like six.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
Dollars and you got in and there's the same thing,
a little room crammed in the back, a bunch of
people smoking on cigars and cigarettes.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
Oh that's Lady Wilson's new joints.
Speaker 6 (27:12):
Is that the first one you've heard that's paid the Yeah?
Speaker 1 (27:15):
Why am I six bucks? Smoking has gotten so expensive?
Dear God. Yeah, travelers, the flame.
Speaker 8 (27:29):
It was seriously, thank you. So the other ones have
like an environment or vibe. This just looks like it's
a Hudson News. I love the little tag. Here travelers
can enjoy. One of life's pleasure is a glass of wine, beer,
liquor of choice, or a unique blend of coffee with
a great cigar.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Here jelly Rolls put some of the thought.
Speaker 8 (27:55):
Into that one.
Speaker 7 (27:58):
Exactly breakfast judge it up like, let's go her.
Speaker 8 (28:03):
At least put a door that we can be certain
is trapping with the spoken.
Speaker 9 (28:09):
Oh.
Speaker 8 (28:10):
Not good reviews on Google no, oh really, one star
Speaker 1 (28:13):
Whatever, probably because they had like bad wine menu or
something
Where are you on cigars?
Speaker 2 (00:03):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (00:03):
Wow, haven't smoked cigars in a while. I kind of quit.
Speaker 1 (00:09):
I love it. Oh there, Why did you? Why did
you quit? Uh?
Speaker 4 (00:14):
Mainly for health reasons. I love playing golf and smoking
a cigar.
Speaker 5 (00:19):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (00:19):
It ruined my golf.
Speaker 1 (00:20):
Game, though, Wait why did I don't understand why it ruined?
Speaker 6 (00:23):
You all got worse when you quit?
Speaker 3 (00:26):
Uh, it got worse when it smoked cigars on the
golf course because I was focused on just, you know,
enjoying a nice cigar, and my game just kind of
went downhill.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
The you know, you can do both?
Speaker 4 (00:40):
Yeah, isn't that a big Like?
Speaker 7 (00:42):
I don't golf, But isn't that like a big like
guys will go out and golf and smoke like two
or three cigars during a round.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (00:48):
Yeah, and also a couple of beers.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (00:51):
Well that's all right. That's why your game went to hell.
It's not the smoking, it's the drinking.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Gave me the drinking.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
Did you did you smoke cigars when you were golfing?
Speaker 8 (01:00):
Like?
Speaker 1 (01:00):
Did you smoke cigars at all?
Speaker 7 (01:02):
Like like like other than like when you were out
with the guys having like playing around of golf.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
Would you would you have a cigar at home?
Speaker 3 (01:09):
Yeah? I would. I go out on the deck and
smoke a couple of cigars. My father in law got me.
Speaker 4 (01:15):
Into it, uh, he and I would just we go
on vacation beat trips and smoke cigars. So yeah, every
now and then I'll go out on the deck and
smoke a couple of cigars.
Speaker 6 (01:27):
A couple. Oh my god, did it take forever to
get their one cigar?
Speaker 9 (01:32):
The Yeah?
Speaker 1 (01:33):
Yeah, isn't it like an hour? I don't know, I
may be way off it good.
Speaker 4 (01:37):
It depends, It depends, but you know, you know, I'll
let us get in a little bit and smoke and
I have a glass of whiskey and then just relax
that on the deck after a.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
Long day at work.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
Yeah, I got to get into that. That sounds great.
Here's why I'm in. And by the way, like I'm
I and I realized cigars smoking is massive, massive? Yeah, yeah,
can I get Can I give you a tangent thing
real quick?
Speaker 7 (02:03):
So a buddy of mine, a buddy of mine works
at a car dealership and told me that there there
was a guy that used to bring He had a
very nice car and he used to bring his car
in like super service, like twice a year or whatever
it was. And he smoked cigars in his car all
the time, but he didn't open the windows.
Speaker 6 (02:22):
Oh god, how bad did that stay?
Speaker 10 (02:24):
Well?
Speaker 1 (02:24):
Not only did it stink, but he would ash all
on the up on the dash on the dashboard that went, yeah,
so every sing.
Speaker 6 (02:31):
We wouldn't even use an ash tray.
Speaker 7 (02:33):
Every six months they'd have to clean this guy's car
and there's no getting to smell out, Like the smell
you're not going to get out.
Speaker 6 (02:39):
But you, like super rich doesn't care.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
I don't care how rich you are. You don't put,
you don't put. You don't just ash cigars and cigarettes
on your dashboard Like that's ridiculous. And he said it
was all over the car, Like it's not like it
all just stayed there. It was all over the car.
But the the thing that's where do you do you, Diane?
Do you find the smell of cigars obnoxious?
Speaker 6 (03:05):
I kind of waver back and forth.
Speaker 5 (03:07):
I love the way they smell when they're not lit,
But sometimes sometimes the smoke can be a bit nune.
Speaker 7 (03:13):
It bothers you, Yeah, it bothers you? Does cigar smoke
bother you? The smell of not the smell of cigars.
Speaker 8 (03:19):
Yeah, though I don't know if the word noxious is accurate, right,
But uh, I'm not a huge fan of it.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
I don't know that I care. I don't know that
I care.
Speaker 5 (03:30):
That's funny when like, because doesn't Tyson still have one
of those like Georgetown tobacco stores that they do have
a closed.
Speaker 6 (03:38):
Room where you can go and smell like the mall.
Speaker 5 (03:41):
Yeah, and you can still out in the hallway of
the mall can still smell it.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
There's no way, there's no way I think there is
inside the mall.
Speaker 5 (03:49):
Unless it recently closed. I feel like it's down one
of those side corridors.
Speaker 7 (03:54):
There's a place in seven corners right by that home
depot in seven Corners. Yeah, is it Dominion Cigars Old
Dominion Cigars, Virginia Cigars Old Virginia, whatever it is, But
that is like, that's a cigar shop that you could
smoke in.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
But there's no way in the mall you're smoking in there.
Speaker 8 (04:16):
I mean, Diane's right there at least used to be.
Speaker 7 (04:19):
Oh, I know that there was a Georgetown Tobacco because
it had the big wooden Indian in it.
Speaker 5 (04:23):
Yeah, I just remember, I don't think you could smoke
walking past there, you could definitely tell people were smoking
cigars in there.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
Yeah, but like, was that thirty years ago?
Speaker 6 (04:35):
I don't think it was that long ago.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
There's a place I don't know the name of it.
Speaker 7 (04:40):
There's a place in DC that's a cigar shop that
you can smoke in, like they have like all the
what do you.
Speaker 5 (04:48):
Call it, the humidor like ventilation of the ventilation and stuff,
the ventilation and stuff.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
And then a buddy of mine lives in Tampa and
they have a cigar shop attached to a bar and
you can like smoke in the you could get a
drink and go into the cigar part. It was eboors City.
That's cool bar.
Speaker 6 (05:15):
We were just in in Cleveland over the weekend. It
was the same thing.
Speaker 5 (05:17):
I was like, where is this cigar smell coming? And
you walked around the corner and next to the bathroom,
it was just a side room. There was no closing
off or anything, because you could definitely smell it into
well into the next room and it was just people
smoking cigars and drinking.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
That's awesome, that's great.
Speaker 8 (05:33):
Didn't you go to one of those in Atlanta?
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Oh I did.
Speaker 7 (05:37):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, it was. It was in the battery.
But I can't remember the name of it.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
Yeah, went with Sean. He got a hammer the but yeah,
and they but like the whole side of the the
whole side.
Speaker 7 (05:53):
Of the restaurant opened or bar opened up right, so
you could sit in.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
There and smoke.
Speaker 8 (06:00):
I don't remember the name of it.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
I don't either. I don't either. That's gonna bother me.
Speaker 8 (06:06):
Having a lot of cigar shops also introduced, like vaping
product to what do you mean the ones that are
trying to also generate sales from the newest trends.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Oh, so you can buy a cigar and a vape.
Speaker 6 (06:20):
Yes, I like that. You can get clothes there too,
That is true.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
That is true.
Speaker 8 (06:27):
Did you go to Burn?
Speaker 6 (06:29):
Is that the one in Atlanta?
Speaker 1 (06:31):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (06:33):
Is it?
Speaker 1 (06:33):
That looks right? It was nighttime.
Speaker 8 (06:37):
I couldn't tell you during the day.
Speaker 7 (06:38):
No, wait, go up, go up? Yeah, those seats look right. Yeah,
and Burn makes sense because I'm having a cigar.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
Mm hm, any drink a lot there?
Speaker 8 (06:49):
What does a food taste like? There?
Speaker 1 (06:51):
Smokegar? Now? Can you like? Does does Scott ever have
a cigar?
Speaker 6 (07:01):
He has in the past it's been a long time.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
Not regularly, not regularly.
Speaker 7 (07:05):
When he did try to think back when he would
come home, did that's the smell on him?
Speaker 1 (07:11):
Did that bother you?
Speaker 6 (07:13):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (07:13):
It stinks well obviously, but like like in a bad way.
Speaker 6 (07:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (07:20):
Like there are sometimes where like I don't smoke a
lot of cigars, Like every so often, like at Bigsy
and and and KOs Gar Kurd and Nelly.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
And everybody are getting together, I'll have one. But most
of the time, if they're having one, I'll just sit
and smoke cigarettes. Right, But every so often I'll have one.
Jackie not a huge fan.
Speaker 6 (07:38):
Not a huge makes it worse than cigarettes.
Speaker 7 (07:41):
It's like one big umbrella, Okay, one big umbrella. They're
opening a cigar smoking facility in a place that I
was surprised to read, and they say if this one
is successful, they believe it will open in other facilities
just like it. And for a number of reasons, I
(08:04):
was like, first of all, it's definitely a no smoking facility.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
I know you could smoke outside, but you can't smoke
in there. Used to be able to, but you can't anymore.
Speaker 7 (08:18):
And I thought, the whole reason you can anymore is
they outlawed it. Detroit Metropolitan Airport, the major airport in Detroit.
Speaker 6 (08:28):
I'm relatively newer, right.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
It's got to be within the last twenty five years.
Speaker 7 (08:34):
They're going to open a cigar like a cigar lounge
inside the airport.
Speaker 5 (08:40):
It is like when you used to walk by and
steal the people smoking the cigarettes.
Speaker 6 (08:44):
Never got the classroom.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
We all look so pathetic, pathetic. It's horrible. Like there
are even times you would walk in again, like you
look like.
Speaker 5 (08:54):
You were like walking out for like a wrestling event.
The amount of smoke that would come out.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
It was bad.
Speaker 7 (08:58):
It was bad because you'd open the door would go
So Detroit's going to open a cigar lounge inside the
airport and they're they're working to get all of like
the the ventilation and everything done, but you're still gonna
smell it.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
How did How is that working an airport? Also, it
takes a long time to smoke one and the like.
Speaker 6 (09:20):
It's only for people who have the long layovers.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
Well, it's not like I'm just driving by and I
was like, oh, I'm going to pull in for it.
The airport you can't get into anything, and it's definitely
beyond the security checkpoint.
Speaker 8 (09:33):
I hadn't seen that this was opening. But haven't groups
been fighting this for a while now? So aren't there
billboards up in Detroit? In Detroit, Oh, I don't know
opposing this that have been up for a while.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
So did it pass?
Speaker 8 (09:49):
I didn't know you're telling me new news.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
I thought that it was. I thought I read it's opening.
Speaker 8 (09:55):
I have to pull up these billboards.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
Yeah, here it is door smoke lounge.
Speaker 8 (10:03):
Yeah, look see stop the cigar lounge at DTW say
no to indoor smoking. It couldn't be clear with their message.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Food cigars in close smoking area, state of the art
and handling facility.
Speaker 7 (10:25):
But like I can remember, like when they used to
have those rooms in the airports, Like I'd be on
a flight next to somebody and even I would be
like Jesus, dude.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
A polls that smell like when you're flying.
Speaker 5 (10:41):
A poll that they took in June, seventy seven percent
of people in Michigan opposed this idea.
Speaker 6 (10:46):
How many seventy seven percent? That's a lot in all
of the sun nights, say three quarters?
Speaker 1 (10:54):
But then why because this this? The airport says that
a request for proposals opened up on October first, there's
a deadline of January.
Speaker 7 (11:05):
Well, if the Detroit wane, the non smoker's rights are
saying it's a bad.
Speaker 8 (11:09):
Idea, Tobacco Free Coalition are continuing the fight against that.
Maybe it never sees the light of day.
Speaker 7 (11:20):
Listen, I'm not gonna lie. I've smoked at an airport before,
like outside, and they always send you down where you're
like you're standing like down wind from the buses and it's.
Speaker 6 (11:30):
Like where the dogs are peeing.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
I wish, honestly, I wish.
Speaker 7 (11:35):
No. It's always like there's every bus exhaust where you're like,
I am so lightheaded now, and I know it's not
from this.
Speaker 8 (11:44):
One passenger says, as long as it's closed off and
we can't smell it out here, I'm fine with it. Yeah,
you're going to smell. And there's second hand there's third
hand smoke. No, there's not third hand smoke residue.
Speaker 6 (11:58):
Oh stop, okay, out your hands.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
Yellow. But is this going to be the new thing
in airports?
Speaker 6 (12:08):
I don't know.
Speaker 8 (12:08):
I can't see this catching on or internationally. Is this already?
Speaker 1 (12:12):
Oh that's a good question.
Speaker 7 (12:13):
That's a good question because I from what I read
at least Detroit is the first major airport that's looking
at it in the US.
Speaker 8 (12:21):
Oh, but you don't know globally.
Speaker 7 (12:23):
Globally, I have no idea. Would we be shocked to
find out?
Speaker 1 (12:26):
Well you can't. Can you?
Speaker 5 (12:28):
Like?
Speaker 1 (12:28):
What's a big smoking country?
Speaker 6 (12:30):
France or China? Yeah? China they smoke like crazy. If
I fly into the Gaul in Paris.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
No, I was going for a Chinese one.
Speaker 7 (12:40):
I was like, oh God, the gall is not Beijing,
you had said, Shahi, Yeah, are they smoke?
Speaker 1 (12:46):
Like?
Speaker 7 (12:46):
Is everybody just like I got youa my ass? Well
that's Japan? Maybe there too, but like where everybody's smoking? No,
they have lounges still, do they really? Yeah, I'll get
my pay way to go?
Speaker 1 (13:06):
Where am I going? Line to? Hi? Elliott the morning?
Speaker 9 (13:11):
Hey, good morning Elliot?
Speaker 8 (13:12):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (13:12):
Hi, who's that? This is James?
Speaker 2 (13:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (13:16):
There was actually a smoking store like a cigar store
in Pentagon City and you can actually sit in there
and there's TVs. You watch sports, smoke cigars all day
if you want to.
Speaker 1 (13:27):

Speaker 9 (14:26):
But yeah, the Mamble Wings are pretty.

Speaker 1 (14:30):
If you ever every chance note to sell all right,

It's like a nice dessert chocolate cigar. You try it
one time, all right?

a good time, sir.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
That looks awesome. It does, it does?
Speaker 7 (15:19):
Now imagine it half that size, more people jammed on
top of each other, and in fifteen minutes you're gonna
sit right next to me on an eight hour flight.
Speaker 8 (15:30):
They Peter Greenberg tells you to go light on the
cologne when you're gonna be begging for someone to bathe
in some sort of perfume if they smell like they've
been in that lounge line.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
Three. Hi, elliot in the morning.
Speaker 10 (15:50):
Hi, this is Stephen.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
Stephen, what can I do for you?
Speaker 10 (15:55):
I wanted to plug another cigar bar in downtown. It's
not Shelley's. It's actually TG Cigars. It's right across from
the convention Center at Tamptonel Northwest and what does it
call actually have It's called TG Cigar like yeah, TG,
And it's one of the oldest businesses in Shaw, actually
(16:17):
black owned h and they have a really large walk
in humidor which is pretty cool. So it kind of
maintains all of the products and they also have food
and you can smoke there. So I actually have worked
with them before and it's kind of crazy how all
the work goes into the ventilation system.
Speaker 5 (16:37):
Uh.
Speaker 10 (16:37):
And then if you want another place you can actually smoke.
Speaker 8 (16:41):
Uh.
Speaker 10 (16:41):
There's a DC's doing cannabis lounges to right, and there's
one at don Touego just two doors down. So lots
of well ventilated spaces.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
I really just hit like stairwells. That's my too. All right,
very good, very good, thank you sir. By the way,
these places are beautiful.
Speaker 8 (17:05):
Yea cigars nice looking beautiful. Now from Patty, we are
going on a cruise in March on the Norwegian Joy
and there is a cigar lounge on the ship.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
Is there real that?
Speaker 6 (17:18):
I believe? Doesn't that make sense?
Speaker 7 (17:20):
You know where it makes sense if it's outside, but
you but if they say there's a cigar lounge.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
I bet it's inside.
Speaker 8 (17:27):
Oh that's how I read that. Yeah, Norwegian is Sam's
that's Sam?
Speaker 7 (17:32):
Yeah right, Sam started, So he's already pre booked one
for next year. Man, he's talking to them about a
third one already.
Speaker 5 (17:40):
Because they are they giving me a deal.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
There's always a deal.
Speaker 7 (17:45):
There's always a deal. You know what Sam starts this weekend?
What pickleball?
Speaker 8 (17:54):
Yes, it's called the Humidor's Cigar Lounge.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
Good name.
Speaker 8 (17:59):
It's also pretty nice looking.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
That's nice.
Speaker 8 (18:06):
That's pretty I would say. It's not like the old
Railroad show where it feels like you're getting robbed on
the train, right, but it's definitely.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
It doesn't feel like you're on a boat.
Speaker 8 (18:19):
Takes you away from the Yeah.
Speaker 6 (18:21):
No, it's like deep mahogany.
Speaker 8 (18:23):
Yeah, like chairs or these leather with I bet.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
That's an up charge to get in there. Yeah, that's
a package.
Speaker 8 (18:32):
You can't just go.
Speaker 7 (18:35):
Also, can I like, for example, the place of Pentagon City?
Speaker 1 (18:38):
What is that old Georgetown? Can I go in there
and have a cigarette?
Speaker 6 (18:45):
What do you think the cigar pio are gonna go? Ah?
Speaker 7 (18:48):
So I told you there used to be this big
charity event and maybe it still goes on.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
They were very very nice people. This isn't a shot
at the charity.
Speaker 7 (18:55):
It was called Little Puff And I used to get
invited to go with my friend Mark and it was
up on top of like where Charlie Palmers was, where
you would like look out and overlook the capitol. It's beautiful, beautiful,
and they would set up shop and then at the
end of the night they would auction off boxes of
cigars for thousands and thousands and thousands of dollars. Yeah, like,
(19:16):
I don't know what's in these cigars, but you used to.
They used to have like a bunch of like different
cigar companies there, and people would walk around and they
like with their little goodie bag and they would drop
this cigar in there and that, and so people would
leave with.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
Hundreds of dollars worth of cigars. Yeah, well you know
who didn't care me Like, I don't know anything about cigars.
I know nothing about them.
Speaker 6 (19:35):
But would you get some and then just give them
to your friends?
Speaker 1 (19:39):
Oh yeah, oh all the time.
Speaker 7 (19:41):
So I would load up a bag and I'd walk
around smoking Marlboroughs and like even the people who were
like in charge of the event would be like, seriously, you.
Speaker 6 (19:48):
Give you the side.
Speaker 7 (19:49):
I yeah, but I was like, what do you care?
Like I'm here, I wouldn't a dick about it, but
I get it.
Speaker 8 (19:57):
So somebody's asking how you didn't go to barney Lounge
when we were at the airport in Vegas.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
What is Barney's Lounge?
Speaker 8 (20:06):
Is it a smoking section inside?
Speaker 1 (20:09):
Okay, Barney's Lounge sounds cool? Is it like for me
and four people on oxygen who were just sitting in
there smoking? And you know there's one slot machine?
Speaker 6 (20:23):
Hurry?
Speaker 1 (20:25):
Oh that's pathetic looking. I don't remember seeing that. I
don't remember seeing it either.
Speaker 8 (20:30):
Because we definitely would have taken a photo entering.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
Look how pathetic that is.
Speaker 8 (20:37):
So there's definitely there's slots inside, yes, and clearly you
can smoke in there. There's a huge smoking It's funny.
All the photos for Google are just people walking by
not believing their eyes. So there's some high top tables.
(20:58):
There's actually a lot of gaming.
Speaker 1 (21:00):
Yeah, but that gaming doesn't look like it's in the
smoking air Oh that's not in the bar.
Speaker 8 (21:04):
This is the the bar. It looks like you're allowed
to vape there too. Yeah, And then the other one
was that is coming up when you search for Barney's
is bud twenty nine? Did you see that when we
were there?
Speaker 1 (21:18):
Is that?
Speaker 8 (21:19):
I'm looking it up.
Speaker 7 (21:20):
By the way, I don't want to go to a
designated area to smoke weed.
Speaker 8 (21:24):
Bud twenty nine refers to the Budweiser Racing Track Lounge,
a designated smoking area located in Terminal one. Yeah, oh see,
this one's not as obvious. It just says Budweiser. This
Bud's for you.
Speaker 1 (21:39):
Yeah, you wouldn't know that's a smoking lounge. How do they?
Oh wait, can you go back?
Speaker 8 (21:44):
Well, signature lounge? How do you know? Oh wait, there
is a signed small sign. What does that say? Smoking?
Speaker 1 (21:52):
But isn't there go back to that other door for.
Speaker 8 (21:54):
Smoking for bar patrons?
Speaker 1 (21:56):
Oh now, I'll take a water.
Speaker 6 (22:00):
You're that guy.
Speaker 8 (22:01):
Why do I remember seeing this either?
Speaker 7 (22:03):
No, where's the there's a picture though that had and
this is where we did the same thing.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
We thought it was bud like like for weed. I
thought there was one that showed a picture of a
of a marijuana leaf with a line through it on
one of the one of the pictures.
Speaker 8 (22:17):
I can understand if that's prohibited by the way. On
the other side, they do a very similar neon sign
that does say.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
Smoking yes, Hi, Elliott the morning, this Yeah, Hi, who's this?
Speaker 7 (22:34):
Hey?
Speaker 11 (22:34):
Why is silt? Yes?
Speaker 8 (22:35):
Sure?
Speaker 11 (22:36):
You mentioned earlier about whether it's popular internationally. So I
just flew home from my honeymoon in Italy and we
flew out of Milan, and in one of the lounges
we were in there was a separate room that was
a smoking ring. And I kid you not, there was
like twenty five to thirty people crammed into like a
(22:57):
twenty by twenty room, all of them just going to
town on cigars, cigarettes, whatever they had. But you did
not smell a thing outside the room.
Speaker 7 (23:08):
You know, when you smelled it, when they were like, oh,
excuse me, I'm sitting right next to you.
Speaker 3 (23:13):
No, you know exactly.
Speaker 11 (23:14):
So I was like, that's a good point, Like I
didn't smell anybody next to me. But I guarantee you
they all reaped of it when they got on the
plane because they packed people in there.
Speaker 7 (23:24):
Absolutely absolutely. You could have told me there was only
ten people in there. But you get ten people in
a packed room with no real air flowing, you're smoking
a cigar.
Speaker 6 (23:37):
Hell, just even smoking.
Speaker 1 (23:38):
A cigarette and listen, I'm the worst. I don't want
to sit and smell that for five hours on a plane.
Speaker 5 (23:46):
It was kind of.
Speaker 11 (23:46):
Funny because right next to the smoking room and a
separate room was a whole room of people sleeping, so
I'm sure they probably got a whip of it, like
through the ventilation.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
Unconscious, dude, How was your How was your How was
your honeymoon?
Speaker 3 (24:01):
It was great.
Speaker 11 (24:01):
We spent about fifteen days between Rome, Florence, Bologna, Milan
and Lake Lugano in Switzerland. It was I want to
go back.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
Good Now were you good? Well? I appreciate you listening
while you were there.
Speaker 11 (24:17):
Yep, yep, always there we.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
Go, all right, very good, very good. Thank you sir.
Even if you were lying, you answered correctly.
Speaker 6 (24:23):
Thank you.
Speaker 8 (24:24):
Do you want me to send you this website airport
smokers dot com.
Speaker 2 (24:29):
It has.
Speaker 7 (24:31):
Every place you could smoke in an airport, and there's
a lot in the US.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
Is there really?
Speaker 8 (24:36):
I'm surprised where somebody on here says Cincinnati. What I
didn't see that?
Speaker 1 (24:43):
Now you can't even get a knife at the outback?
Where am I smoking in Cincinnati? Isn't connected?
Speaker 7 (24:51):
To like the dog walking area.
Speaker 8 (24:57):
I don't see that here. But look at this, I mean,
it doesn't it seem like every states on this list.
Speaker 1 (25:02):
Wow? Is there a place of DCA that I just
don't know about? Is it down that weird walkway between
terminal one and two where there's like artwork in there?
Speaker 8 (25:18):
DCA it says before and after security smoking.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
Forbidden.
Speaker 8 (25:26):
Now it's outside the terminal.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
Yeah, that sucks.
Speaker 8 (25:29):
But what does it say about Richmond?
Speaker 1 (25:32):
Oh, all the way up to the tarmac.
Speaker 8 (25:37):
Only outside?
Speaker 1 (25:38):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (25:39):
Come on?
Speaker 1 (25:40):
How did they seriously? How is there not like the
Marlborough Mall or something.
Speaker 5 (25:46):
Why doesn't the tower look like a big cigarette.
Speaker 8 (25:51):
But it looks like you can.
Speaker 7 (25:52):
So Detroit isn't really well, I guess they're gonna be
the first cigar.
Speaker 8 (25:56):
Bar in Detroit. Its stogy time. But this is this resource.
Let's just check BWI here also without him? Oh my god,
take a no from Vegas?
Speaker 1 (26:12):
No kidding? Can you go in those places and have
a cigar? Though probably not.
Speaker 8 (26:18):
On the actual website for the airport, all they say
is allowed is smoking and vaping. They don't say cigarette smoking.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
Yeah, okay, so I'm smoking.
Speaker 8 (26:31):
I think you're good. So you're going to But are
you going to Barney's.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
I'm going to Barney's. I'm going to Barney's. I like
how that sounds you said.
Speaker 8 (26:37):
It also looked pathetic, it did.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
Line one. I'll go quick Hi Ellie in the morning.
Speaker 2 (26:47):
Hi is this being?
Speaker 5 (26:48):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (26:48):
Hi? Who's ass? Hey?
Speaker 2 (26:50):
This is Tom from Frederick. About twelve fourteen years ago,
I went to the Nashville airport on a company thing
and there's a smoking lounge inside the air port.
Speaker 8 (27:00):
You paid like six.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
Dollars and you got in and there's the same thing,
a little room crammed in the back, a bunch of
people smoking on cigars and cigarettes.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
Oh that's Lady Wilson's new joints.
Speaker 6 (27:12):
Is that the first one you've heard that's paid the Yeah?
Speaker 1 (27:15):
Why am I six bucks? Smoking has gotten so expensive?
Dear God. Yeah, travelers, the flame.
Speaker 8 (27:29):
It was seriously, thank you. So the other ones have
like an environment or vibe. This just looks like it's
a Hudson News. I love the little tag. Here travelers
can enjoy. One of life's pleasure is a glass of wine, beer,
liquor of choice, or a unique blend of coffee with
a great cigar.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Here jelly Rolls put some of the thought.
Speaker 8 (27:55):
Into that one.
Speaker 7 (27:58):
Exactly breakfast judge it up like, let's go her.
Speaker 8 (28:03):
At least put a door that we can be certain
is trapping with the spoken.
Speaker 9 (28:09):
Oh.
Speaker 8 (28:10):
Not good reviews on Google no, oh really, one star
Speaker 1 (28:13):
Whatever, probably because they had like bad wine menu or
something
