Random question. Have you ever considered a Patreon? I remember you releasing a video a while back that said you had a negative impact to your income so maybe a Patreon could help supplement? Pipe smoking is a niche community, but its a loyal community. Come up with a few unique perks (maybe once a month giveaways of blends, early access to videos, mug giveaways, etc). You make so much quality content that I feel there would at least be some willing to join to help you out and ensure this content keeps flowing. Edit: omg I just realized you have a TH-cam based membership program. How have I missed this??
Thanks for the kind words. You probably missed it because I rarely mention it. (Of course on a video in which I do not speak at all, I suppose it would be impossible to mention). And thanks so much for joining! Glad to see you're taking advantage of the custom emojis already. I might need to make some more. Let me know which blend you would like me to review this month!
Thank you. I have intended to be completely silent a number of times, but I usually end up having something on my mind. This time, the thunderstorm took priority.
I mean this in the most lighthearted way possible, I LOVE this channel and would never change a thing about it... But the opening of this video instantly reminded me of the opening scene from Planes, Trains, and Automobiles. 😂 th-cam.com/video/fXXNrHpaQ3k/w-d-xo.htmlsi=KucC5ETRt1XC9_eZ But really, don't change a thing. Even these long openers I enjoy. Chilling with some Mac Baren HH Bold Kentucky with you tonight.
@@amanrelaxes It definitely is strong, yes. I know you are susceptible to nicotine strength so HH Bold Kentucky you'll be feeling for sure. Not quite as strong as Mac Baren's HH Rustica, but only a step down. I like the strong Kentucky's though. Those are my go-to's and just what my palette prefers. Would love to see you try it! Here's a tip: back when I first started and was more prone to getting sick from the nicotine, I would take a "shot" (well, 6-8 ounces) of pineapple juice. The high sugar content helped mellow out the nicotine sickness.
@@TonikQL I'll definitely try out the pineapple juice shot. Your membership level includes a monthly review of your choice-would you like HH Bold Kentucky to be your choice for September?
@@amanrelaxes Absolutely! It is my all time favorite blend. It goes with me everywhere. It's the only blend that I've purchased in a 16oz size now that I think about it. My wife despises the smell of it (she says it smells like bbq but I love that about it). Can't wait to hear what your senses pick up!

Total relaxation!
I really liked when you said, “……….”
Happy smoking and God bless you brother!
😆 Thanks, and same to you!
I love these videos...they are a beautiful repudiation of our hurried, clickbait culture. 6:50
Thank you. I have intended to be completely silent a number of times, but I usually end up having something on my mind. This time, the thunderstorm took priority.
which pipe were you using
That's my Peterson B11-first briar pipe I ever bought about 15 years ago.
@@amanrelaxes thanks
😄
Relaxing as always! Would love to see how you pack your pipe, you seem to be much less fraught with relights than I do!
Funny you should mention it. I have a video I am finishing up on that process.
Smoking with you: Sail Regular in a University Deluxe dublin.
Good choice. I look forward to trying one of Sail's blends sometime soon.

He certainly is-though he didn't realize the accidental connection on his own channel for a couple of years.

😄 That's hilarious.
I've got some Bold Kentucky waiting patiently in my cellar. I'm a bit scared! It's fairly strong?

Sounds good! I’ll post my review sometime this month.

Thanks!
