That's cool you're entitled to your opinion. Have any ideas on what we could do to make it more interesting? We did some sketch type episodes before like a star trek theme, pirate theme, man vs. cigar, etc. We plan to do more of that here soon. Let me know what the videos need and I can definitely add to it to make it enjoyable for all. Thanks for taking a look. Also, if the videos are painful, we do a written review along with the video for those that don't want to watch.

The point of the site is to find a good cigar that you can smoke on a regular basis (everyday cigar) that won't break the bank. I'm definitely in the category that can't pay for the more expensive smokes because I can't "break the bank". I have 4 kids and the family takes up most of my funds. :-)

Only suggestions I would make are to get a better microphone like a boom mic or something and then the video quality. The rest is pretty good. I think people are expecting some high budget ordeal but its a cigar review site. If you look at the numerous youtube video reviews you guys are already light years ahead of them. Keep doing what you do and I for one appreciate you and your reviews. I have purchased some good smokes for dirt cheap. They don't taste like $14 cigars but for $1-$2 they can't be beat.

We actually got a boom mic but that introduced even more hiss than the internal mic. I think it's because my smoking room used to be my garage where the breaker switch is so there is tons of electrical interference in this room. I can't wait until it gets warmer outside so we can do some more reviews outside again.

I like the website. The reviews are accurate. Most of my cigars are under $3, it took me a long time to find the good ones.

I watched their 'diamond in the rough' review of the Gran Habano Corojo Vintage 2002 and then found one in in the back of the humi from a sampler. Good call. :-)

Hey guys I just wanted to draw your attention to the shout out to the website in the most recent Crap Cigar video on their website. I get a shout out too but I told him it was more important that the sites, this one and then Pipe Chat, get a shout out. I don't know how to embed the video here so here is a link to the page with the short article/review.

That's a cool thing that was done by both them and you. Thanks. :-)

I'm fairly certain that video embedding is disabled here.

Yeah it's disabled. These guys could do some good with reviews, they just need to cut the joking and laughing down a bit. As well as the intro. Do 7-8 minute videos, throw in a few jokes here and there that would be much better.

No problem and thank you and everyone else for watching the video. I hope it atleast brings a few more guys here.

That would make sense because I was able to embed it in other forums but not this one. Thanks.

I tend to disagree. I like the laid back style and joke filled reviews. It makes it more watchable. If I wanted to watch boring cigar smokers review cigars I would watch ever other video out there. I like watching these guys for the banter back and forth and the reviews. Maybe I am just crazy though, after all this is the asylum. :-)

I like the back and forth of the videos but the intro to the videos is just way to long.
