Tony and Fingers review the Stoic Equanimity Justice, a hefty 6x52 cigar with notes of spice, cedar, and earth, and a surprising amount of staying power. They pair it with Jacob’s Pardon Small Batch American Whiskey Batch #2, a 109.3 proof pour that brings vanilla, brown sugar, oak, butterscotch, and enough heat to keep things interesting.

Also on the show: Beyond Meat pivots toward protein drinks, summer grilling and BBQ sides, the bourbon industry slowdown, the 2027 Masters ticket lottery, the rescheduled White House Correspondents Dinner, and why the FCC says you may want to turn off Bluetooth when you are not using it.
