This week, #ELOsoFumarTakes welcomes the incomparable Steve Saka of Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust to sit down for our #130thTake. 'Saka Squatch' poses to takeover this #Take, with his ever endearing, self-deprecating, boyhood-like love of the leaf. The goal? To bring out a side of Steve you've never seen before. The Over/Under? 4 hours. Mission: Impossible? We dare not think so.  Steve challenges me in the opening minutes that I may not know him as well as I do.  We dive into Steve's military background as well as finding out where exactly Saka Squatch hails from.  Hint:  We share it in common.  In ONE MUST GO - Steve makes a fast choice, but it doesn't mean it was hard.  Steve sticks to his "always honest" approach and sometimes this means hurt feelings.  We take it in stride.  And Finally, did Steve give me a passing grade for this interview?  Enjoy!

To the #ELOsoFumarTakes community, I have decided to take part in a survey that is aimed at capturing the influence of our podcast, in addition to other Cigar Industry media. I ask you, humbly, to take a few minutes and take part in this survey. Two major points:


1) No personal info will be asked for or given by you
2) THE GOAL: to see what, if any, influence and impact Cigar Media has on the way you, the consumer, views and takes part in this industry we love.

It would honor me to hear and see your thoughts. Thank you in advance.
