EPISODE 84: Age of Aging (ARCHIVES)
Episode 84: The process of aging pipe tobacco | One note: Obviously since we recorded this episode Disney purchased Fox and Wolverine and the X-Men have moved over to the MCU. Also the 'smoking ban' on Marvel characters has clearly lifted as we've seen characters smoking in the MCU, the latest that comes to mind being 'The Cavillrine' Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy...

The Pipe in Modern Mythology
What is the pipe's role in modern mythology? Have we lost the narrative entirely? And what responsibility does the modern pipe community have in telling our own stories? Get ready from some major soapboxing this episode. Pipe Question: Jeremy Dukes - pipe cleaners. They come in “soft’n’fluffy” and “hard’n’bristly”. I’ve always tended towards the hard cleaners because I refurbished so many pipes and used those bristles to really get the gunk out, but some swear soft is the only way to avoid damag...

This week we have an article from Psychology Today on Integrity Pipe Question: So I had been smoking my first tin of autumn evening and was enjoying about halfway through the tin I started getting a ve...

A pipe is the perfect complement to a good meal and a good drink is the kind companion to a good pipe.
