Cigar Page is back with another banger: The Fab Collab Tenski Cigar Grip II

10 different cigars
Cigarpage / Cigarpage

Well, here we go again. Cigar Page just dropped another insane deal, and I knew I was in for it the second I saw the words “Rocky Patel” and “$19.99” in the same sentence. If you missed the last bundle they offered — and yes, I’m still hearing about it from my better half — now’s your chance to make up for it.

This time around, they’re calling it The Fab Collab Tenski Cigar Grip II. I did spend some time trying to figure out who “Tenski” is (don’t laugh) but realized it’s because there are TEN cigars. That saves me the embarrassment of writing a thank you note to “Mr. Tenski” and sending it to Cigar Page. Once again, the big dogs are in the ring: Rocky Patel and La Aurora. These names must mean something because my partner lit up (figuratively and literally) the moment I showed him the order confirmation.

Ten long-filler, handmade cigars — rated as high as 95, apparently — all headed our way with free shipping. That’s $2 per cigar. I’ve seen him drop more than that on a single cup of coffee, so you don’t need to smoke cigars to know this is a no-brainer.

I asked him if this lineup was as good as the last one, and he just nodded while staring at the screen like it was the last piece of cake in the fridge. He’s the kind of guy who notices the construction of a cigar before even lighting it, so when he’s impressed, I take it seriously.

If you geek out, or have someone in your life who geeks out, over ring gauges and wrappers, this is one of those deals to hang your hat on. And if you’re just stocking up the stash so you can have more peaceful evenings on the porch while they smoke, well — this does the job.

Here’s the catch (and you knew there’d be one): it’s a one-per-customer deal, and the clock is ticking. This offer runs from March 26 through April 30, or until it sells out. And judging by how fast the last one disappeared, I wouldn’t sleep on this.

Cigar Page knows how to do a deal, and this Fab Collab proves it. Go ahead — make your cigar fan’s day. Or at least save them $80 while looking like a genius in the process.

Jeremy Allen White in Deliver Me From Nowhere

Music biopics are all the rage these days, and Bruce Springsteen is the latest icon to get the treatment. The first trailer for Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere sees The Bear star inhabiting the role of The Boss. The film is based on Warren's Zane's book of the same name, which focuses on the period when he was making his 1982 album Nebraska.

The film is directed by Scott Cooper, who also directed Jeff Bridges in Crazy Heart. In the trailer, we see White embodying Springsteen as he sings "Born to Run," and we also get a lengthy monologue from Jeremy Strong's Jon Landau as he explains why Springsteen feels the need to make this album.

Tony Soprano vs. Walter White: Who is the ultimate antihero?
TV's biggest heavyweights duke it out for the antihero crown
Breaking bad season 4 screen shot

Sports fans often debate between two heavyweight legends. For basketball, it's LeBron James and Michael Jordan. Switching to tennis, you have Roger Federer fans and Rafael Nadal diehards. Debates like these are ingrained in the culture of athletics, but TV fans have their own version of this sparring match.

Tony Soprano from The Sopranos and Walter White from Breaking Bad are the two characters who still send shockwaves through every drama in the 21st century. These men were the perfect mix of good and evil. They navigated family life and the criminal underworld with cunning intelligence and ruthless risk-taking. Every show with morally gray characters at the center owes its storyboard to Walter and Tony, but which character deserves the antihero crown? This is Tony Soprano vs. Walter White for all the marbles.
Who was the more complex character?

Learn how to smoke a pipe the proper way with our guide for beginners
Let us show you the classy way to smoke a pipe
Packing a pipe

Pipe smoking is the most aesthetically distinguished way to enjoy tobacco, but you lose the classy effect if you don’t know how to smoke a pipe properly. Smoking a pipe has become a lost art, and these days, most people who engage in pipe smoking do so to achieve a sense of nostalgia. Perhaps your grandfather enjoyed a puff now and again paired with a good stiff whiskey, or maybe your goal is to emulate a pipe-smoking artist.

I know that I enjoy a good puff on a pipe now and then, and knowing the right way to enjoy a pipe has made the experience much more pleasurable for for me. Whatever the case, if you intend to take up the time-honored tradition of unwinding with a pipe like me, you should learn how to smoke a pipe the right way. And smoking a pipe is very different than smoking a cigar (except you shouldn't be inhaling either).
