Welcome to Country Squire Radio on Bo. And I'm John David. Hey, Bo, good evening, man. Man, good evening to you, sir. How are you doing, man? I'm good. Merry Christmas, man. It is, we're a week away, dude. Not even a week away. We're in full gear here around the Country Squire, and, man, things are rocking and rolling. Yeah, you're not lying, man. We are we're in full full gear here i feel like everyone i know is just uh very busy right now it is it's kind of the uh

the uh tizzy that that builds up to the the big day and then uh course we're all uh you know

stuffed with with goodies and uh and and and and fine uh delicacy foods and and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, you, uh,, and,, and, and, and,, and, this has been, this has been a, this has been kind of a unique

year for us because we've been doing kind of like a holiday suite of shows. Last week, we did

our holiday blends, Christmas blends for the year 2016. This particular episode is very

Christmas-centric. We'll be talking about a unique pipe-smoking

hero here in a little bit. And then next week, we're doing something very different, which is

we're bringing the listeners in on a pipe Christmas party, essentially. Yeah, yeah. It's something

that we've never, I don't think, really ever done before. Bringing it to, bringing it to life, I guess. We're making it accessible maybe for folks that couldn't come to that kind of thing. Yeah. So next week in the in between of Christmas and New Year's, we'll be kind of continuing on the Christmas season by bringing you in to our local pipe community and the Christmas party that we have here at the country Squire.

It'll be different, but it'll also hopefully be very enjoyable. So check that out. And it should be

really fun. Yeah. So I got to ask you, man, you know, are you, I know that you've been extremely

busy with people coming in and buying presents. I'm kind of curious in the midst of the Christmas rush, has there been like a particular pipe that's been selling more so than others this year for Christmas presents? Yeah, there really has. We're doing a lot of Mearsome pipes this year, which has been really, really cool. Of course, we've got a, you know, bunch of them right now. But it seems that that's been kind of a common theme, you know, just lots of Mirrensen pipes. So, and you know, if you think about it, of course, I'm smoking mine tonight right now. Yeah, it's beautiful. But that is kind of a, um, you think of it as kind of a Christmasy thing, right? It's something you might not smoke all year, but, uh, I don't know, it just, it, Christmas. It fits Christmas time. So, yeah, good. You know, obviously, you know, lots of other things are selling themselves as they always do. Like the Savinelli's always move really well this time of year, and Peterson's and Nortings and things of that nature. But, yeah, this has the year of the Mirsham, and we're happy about that.

And I'm glad.

Yeah, there is something Christmassy about Mircham Pipes, just the beauty of them.

And maybe it's kind of the...

It seems kind of right.

Yeah, it's like the white like snow.

Now, we don't really know what snow looks like here in Jackson, Mississippi.

I understand that...
