#ELOSOFUMARTAKES - 142nd Take with guests William Cooper, Jon Carney, and Miguel Schoedel of Cigar Coop, LFD & Crowned Heads

This week, #ELOsoFumarTakes - IT'S MY BIRTHDAY! And since it's my birthday, I could cry if I want, but I'd rather have some fun for #Take142. I am blessed with a lot of friends in this industry, not just people I am friendly with, but actual friends. It would be way too cluttered for one episode to bring everyone in, but I've asked some of my Premium Cigar Industry friends to join us. So, #TakeFans we welcome Cigar Coop's William Cooper, La Flor Dominicana's Jonathan M. Carney, & Crowned Heads' Miguel M. Schoedel. It'll be a little of this, a little of that, and a lot in between. And for the occasion, I'll be raising money for the ASPCA! This is going to be one awesome #Take! Enjoy!

This week's charity:

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.
