This week, #ELOsoFumarTakes welcomes the return of Alec and Bradley Rubin of Alec & Bradley Cigars to sit down for our #146thTake. A lot is going in the world and in the industry. A lot of brokenness, a lot less cohesion. The latest project from these gentlemen is their small gesture of getting back to what makes us human and makes our industry a beautiful community. We'll be talking Kintsugi. Plus, we'll be diving into what this pandemic has done to bring brothers and colleagues more closely together as well.

And for the occasion, we have a double dose of charity. So, you are not seeing double! Alec, Bradley and I will be raising money for the World Central Kitchen & Direct Relief!

Donate now!

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.
