Hot Ashes Podcast
The Hot Ashes Podcast is where cigars, conversation, and camaraderie come together. Hosted by veterans and longtime friends, the show blends sharp humor, real talk, and storytelling straight from the cigar lounge. One week it’s swapping war stories, the next it’s debating music, movies, leadership, or life’s big questions—no script, no filters, just unfiltered conversation and good bourbon. Whether you’re lighting up a cigar or just looking for a seat at the table, Hot Ashes delivers laughs, insight, and the kind of banter you’d expect from a crew that’s seen a little of everything.

Episode 2 (Chili, Star Wars, Dog visits)
In this episode, Lee, TK, and Nick gather at the cigar shop for a laid-back conversation filled with food, family, and fun. They kick things off with their favorite cigars before diving into barbecue styles, chili recipes, and unforgettable restaurant experiences. Along the way, they trade tips on smoking techniques for chili and meatloaf, debate vinegar vs. ketchup-based barbecue, and swap stories about memorable meals.
Adding to the mix are call-ins from Lee’s kids, Madison and Jackson, who share personal stories—including Jackson’s work as a special education teacher. The talk drifts into movies and Star Wars, with plenty of laughs and side conversations along the way. Background rain, a few dog visits, and the casual cigar shop setting give the episode its relaxed, authentic vibe. They wrap up with a tease of what’s ahead and a lighthearted plug for Lighthouse Realty.
