I'm not superstitious, but I'm a little stitious. Your pal Justin had a feeling we needed to skip episode 13 because it's supposedly unlucky. Against my better judgement we rolled with it. Wouldn't you know, the system stopped recording part way through one of the most pipe/tobacco relevant episodes we have recorded to date. We had our pal Christian on as a guest and had a very enlightening and helpful conversation on dealing with the stigma of smoking and drinking as a person with a super religious upbringing. We were able to salvage enough of the conversation that we'll use some of the clips to edit a future episode on the topic. Instead, you get to enjoy another episode of food talk and a plethora of rabbit trails! Enjoy!
We have been continuously working to improve the sound of the podcast and that comes with investing in better equipment. We have been able to procure quality mics, stands, and a mixing console and now must learn how to use it all. If you'd like to have a part in helping us accomplish better audio for your listening pleasure, we have a set up a Buy Me a Coffee account should you desire to contribute. https://www.buymeacoffee.com/pipespourspals
