  • Film Review – In A Violent Nature (2024)

    The Doctor is a lifelong fan of learning and I enjoy taking deep dives into research. Having said that, I am equally at ease with someone else doing the legwork and freeing me to pursue my various leisure pursuits. TNCC chairman Cade is a natural leader and himself a...
  • Episode 168 – The Last Riders (1991) & Hell Riders (1984), CAO Resonator cigar, Booze

    Let’s imagine a scenario together, shall we? What would happen if an atypically handsome podcast host selected two movies for the show’s nightly film discussion that divided the podcast crew to such extremes that it changed the course, the future, of the podcast forever? Wouldn’t that be fucking crazy?...
  • Cigar Review – Intergalactic Event Horizon by Black Works Studio

    Honest question: How do you react when you hear the news that one of your favorite limited-edition cigars is returning to store shelves BUT the manufacturer has completely altered the blend? For me, personally, my first instinct is to get angry. “If it aint broke don’t fix the sonofabitch!”...
  • Cigar Review – Safe Keepings by Alec Bradley

    Like most creative types, cigar blenders are prone to keep notebooks of their blending recipes and within those notes are almost certainly blends that, for a variety of reasons, never made it in to production. The Safe Keepings from Alec Bradley is one such cigar, born from Alan Rubin’s...
  • Episode 167 – Justice Ninja Style (1985), Powstanie Justice cigar, Beers

    Who doesn’t like ninjas? I mean other than the dudes who are killed by ninjas, as they most likely hate(d) ninjas. Well, we here in The Corner Of No Hope love us some ninjas! And tonight that love, that passion for the hooded warriors, will be put to the...
  • Cigar Review – Joya Cabinetta Lancero by Joya de Nicaragua

    Full disclosure time, I’m a longtime fan of the Cabinetta series. It’s not only a regular rotation smoke for me, but it has proven to be an outstanding cigar to hand out to novice smokers over the years. There’s nothing scary about the Cabinetta as it’s always a smooth,...
  • Episode 166 – Burial ground (1981), Warped Serie Gran Reserva 1988 cigar, Beers

    Welcome everybody to The Tuesday Night Cigar Club episode 166! It’s our first ever Mother’s Day Love-Your-Mama-With-Everything-You’ve-Got Spectacular Bonunzo! Sorry, that should have been, Bonanza! No no… sadly we got drunk as usual and completely missed Mother’s Day so this will just be a random very weird episode of...
  • Film Review – Late Night with the Devil (2023)

    The Doctor is certainly prone to moralizing but I have stopped short of ever delivering a sermon. I am a religious man, but I leave the sermonizing to the professionals. Suffice it to say that I am paradoxically both a man of science and religion. Whether this makes me...
  • Episode 165 – Blackened S84 Shade To Black cigar, Booze, Road House (2024)

    Oh boy… tonight’s show is a fun one! Way back in 2017, we tackled the original classic Road House and not only was it an epic episode but our beloved Yak Boy almost lost his life during the taping of it. Turned out he was just passed out drunk...
