Welcome to Squire Radio on Bo.

And I'm John David. J.D. Hey, Bo, good evening, man. Man, good evening to you, sir. How are you doing? I'm doing well, man. I'm doing well. It's been kind of a slow couple weeks here around the shop. Yeah, for some reason it's, you know, I think it's February. People are kind of recovering from all the holidays we've had. And of course this week is Valentine's Day, so we might see something from that.

But what's cool is there's been a lot of blending energy going on around the shop here. So I've been focusing on some new stuff here that we're going to try to roll out the next couple of weeks for the shop, which I think will be a lot of fun. I hope our aromatic pipe tobacco smokers will be

very, very pleased with that. We'll see where all that goes. That fits the season a little bit.

There's aromatic, you know, flowery nature. I mean, I got to think about like how holidays

impact the pipe buying, the pipe tobacco buying. Well, yeah, I mean, you think about how much

sweet stuff you, you know,

eat and consume between like Thanksgiving and Christmas and then, of course, we've got,

in the deep south, we've got, you know, lent that we're making cakes and stuff.

Yes, sir.

Move on towards Valentine's Day and St. Patty's Day. I don't know. It's just, it's kind of

fun to mark those things with different tobacco. Well, what, it's interesting to me that, like,

you know, I mean, I think Thanksgiving, for example, big meal, you're gonna, you know, you don't want to smoke your pipe after that. Christmas, you've got all of these seasonal Christmas blends that happen. New Year's, you know, some people go the cigar route on New

years, but we're true blue in the pipeway. But I mean, like, you know, I think about like Valentine's and how you're going to be spending your time with your significant other and how many stories we've gotten in of like, yeah, my significant other hates that I smoke a pipe. And so I wonder if that might be impacting the slow traffic the last couple days.

I wanted to smoke my pipe for Valentine's Day, but she sent me out to the shed in the backyard.

Exactly.

Yeah, exactly.

I spent my Valentine's Day.

It was just me and my pipe.
