Pipes, Pours, and Pals

The normal Nate (well maybe not so normal) is on vacation. It only seemed appropriate that we have another Nate fill in. Our Pal and fellow Hoosier, Nate King, graciously agreed to be not-so-normal Nate's replacement. We discuss a myriad (take a drink if you listen to the other guys) of topics that are sure to be informational and potentially helpful if you're ever on Jeopardy. Check out t...

This week we recap our time at the Chicago Pipe Show and discuss the Instagram Pipe Maker Club challenge pipes for April. Check out the pipe maker community called Instagram Pipe Maker Club (@ig_pipemaker_club). We have the privilege of not only bringing light to these artisan makers, but we are privileged to be the exclusive media source to feature the club. If you would like to support the podca...

While at the Chicago Pipe Show, we had the opportunity to record with friend of the show, Jay Furman, and Instagram Pipe Maker Club member, Kevin Foster of Foster Handmade. As you can tell by the laughter, we had wonderful time recording together. There is a new pipe maker community called Instagram Pipe Maker Club (@ig_pipemaker_club). We have the privilege of not only bringing light to these art...

A lot about smells this week. Drink smells, smoke smells, people smells. This is a funky fresh episode all around. Come give us a big sweaty hug at Chicago Pipe Show!

Edit: This is the 3rd posting of episode 55 because Sp@tify screwed up the first couple, and half of you couldn't listen Post recording, we were challenged on Instagram by our Pal, Mike with Pipe and Tamper Podcast, to not mention his lovable cohort for one episode. In response, I jokingly replied back and referred to him as "He who must not be named" and the challenge grew. This is...

I had a fun. You didn't read that wrong, and its not a typo. We had a fun. Grab a pipe, your favorite tobacco, a pour of your choice, find a place to relax, and have a fun with your Pals Nate and Justin.

There is a new pipe maker community called Instagram Pipe Maker Club (@ig_pipemaker_club). We have the privilege of not only bringing light to these artisan makers, but we are privileged to be the first media source to feature the new club. We are INCREDIBLY excited at the work coming out of this group and the wonderful resource of knowledge for less experienced makers. This week, we are joined by...

We went back to the Muletown Pipe Show at Briarworks again in 2023. If you didn't go, you missed phenomenal time. Join your Pals as we relax and reflect on the wonderful time we had.

While at Muletown Pipe Show, we took the opportunity to catch up with our OLD Pals, Mike Laeding and Rocket Man. We had a tremendous time hanging out with our dear friends. We have had many requests for how to support the podcast. IF that is something that interests you, see the options at: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/pipespourspals Email us at pipespoursandpals@gmail.com Instagram @PipesPoursAnd...

We made it a year. 50 episodes of hanging with your Pals, Nate and Justin. Thanks so much for being our Pal and hanging out with us weekly! Here's to 50 more! People have been asking how to support our mission. Obviously, it's never expected of our Pals to support us financially and cover expenses. If that were something you wanted to do you can do so in a few different ways at https://www.buymeac...

This week we compare side by side by side by side, 4 different offerings from Wild Turkey. We might have been a little generous with the pours, but hey, we're among pals. Grab a pour of Turkey and join us for a while in the smoking lounge.

Sometimes a good recuperation is needed after an illness, a time away, maybe having a few abnormal podcast episodes, or a compilation of all of the above. Bear with us as your Pals Nate and Justin try to jump back into the swing of our "normal" routine. We had a bit of catching up to do. But, as always, our time together is great for the soul.

Your Pal Nate is under the weather so we are rolling with Life's punches and making sure you still have Pals to smoke with. Our Pal, Tim Beaumont of Papa Bear's Pipes, joins us for an opportunity for us to get to know Tim both inside and outside of the pipe and tobacco world.

Your Pals Nate and Justin were invited to spend the day with our Pals at the Fort Wayne Cigar and Pipe Club in Fort Wayne, Indiana. We had such a fantastic day we almost forgot to record. Thanks so much to our kind and friendly hosts. We can't wait until next year!

Stranger from Cabela's aka Tyler joins your Pals for a smoke, a drink, and a hearty chuckle.

Gentlemanly Curmudgeon sounds like an oxymoron, but for this episode it couldn't be more apropos. 

You know him. The best head of hair in the pipe world. The King of Selfies. The god of pipe related Instagram posts. The carbless wonder. The Escudo wearing tanner. Super-Pal, Jay Furman. Jay is a tremendous supporter of this show. This week, we smoke a blend that he sent us, and he's made the very generous offer of sending YOU some too. There's a catch... you must be the first person to message h...

This week we wrap up the first impressions marathon through the D&S blends by GL Pease. What a tremendous journey! Thanks Mike for the generous samples and thanks Greg for blending such exceptionally well rounded mixtures in this series. 

Like a quality pipe, each Pal is unique. We all hope to make our mark on the world. Leave something to be remembered by.

Fantasy, make-believe, pretend, imaginary. When it comes to football, it doesn't feel fake to us. It's joyful goodness. Like all good things, it must come to an end. Join us, and find out which of your Pals won the inaugural Pipes, Pours, Pals, and Pigskin Fantasy Football League.  

There has been a bourbon heist of extraordinary proportions. Pour your favorite drink and enjoy the tale (whether it's tall or not).

This episode is chock full of ridiculousness. Show tunes, musicals, getting murdered by an unhinged Irishman. Grab a pipe, your favorite tobacco, and a comfy seat. Enjoy an hour of nutty fodder.

Two experiences makes one an expert right? Of course not! Your Pals Justin and Nate aren't shy about admitting that we don't know what we are talking about. Not about pipes. Not about tobacco. Not about booze. Not even about life. We DO know about having a great time WITH pipes, tobacco, booze, and most importantly...PALS! 

If you've listened for any period of time, you know we speak freely. Our discourse always meanders through tobacco, drinks, sports, work, family, life, entertainment, and general nonsense. This week we tackle some very important and hotly contested topics. Find your lounge, sit back, relax...heck, even join in the conversation. Through email or Instagram of course. Otherwise, people might think yo...

First of all, thank you so much for bearing with us while we missed a week due to illness. We are on the mend, but between the down time and the Thanksgiving holiday we got to examine and reflect on you, our Pals. We had so many people reach out with well wishes and tales of withdraw. We read all of your comments and messages but even went a step further and stalked you to learn more about our Pal...
