The Mount Rushmore of Cigar Smokers!

Описание: The Cigar Guys, comprised of Alex Gonzalez, Mark Nikollaj, Zach Nikollaj, and Jared Burrows, incorporate interactive cigar-themed games like "This Or That," "Blind Ranking Cigars," "Mount Rushmore Draft," and their newest game, "Guess Who's Lying," into their podcast and YouTube content to engage their audience and promote cigar culture with a fun, competitive twist. These games, often featured in their podcast episodes, combine humor, cigar knowledge, and group dynamics to entertain both seasoned enthusiasts and newcomers while highlighting their passion for premium cigars.

In "This Or That," the hosts debate between two cigar-related options, such as choosing between specific brands, cigar sizes, or accessories, encouraging lively discussions that showcase their preferences and insights. For example, they might compare a robusto versus a torpedo or a mild versus a full-bodied cigar, often weaving in personal anecdotes and playful arguments to keep the mood light. "Blind Ranking Cigars" involves the hosts smoking unbanded cigars and attempting to rank them based on flavor, construction, and overall experience without knowing the brand, as inspired by similar formats like Holt's Guys' "Guess the Cigar" series. This game tests their palates and expertise, offering viewers an educational yet entertaining look at cigar evaluation.

The "Mount Rushmore Draft," featured in their podcast episode "The Mount Rushmore of Cigar Brands" (June 2, 2025), sees the hosts, joined by guest Tristan Parrino from Cigarz on the Avenue, selecting their top four cigar brands to create a personal "Mount Rushmore." They discuss the merits of brands like Arturo Fuente or Padrón, debating their historical and cultural significance, with each host defending their picks in a draft-style format. This game highlights their deep knowledge of the industry and fosters engaging banter. The newest game, "Guess Who's Lying," introduces a deceptive twist where hosts share cigar-related stories or facts, and the others must identify which one is fabricating their tale. This game, while not detailed in specific episodes, aligns with their knack for creative, interactive content that keeps listeners guessing and laughing.

These games are seamlessly integrated into their podcast and social media, often accompanied by memes and skits on platforms like TikTok and Instagram to amplify their reach. By playing these games, The Cigar Guys not only promote their 1102 Cigars brand but also create a community-driven atmosphere, encouraging audience participation through comments and subscriptions, making cigar culture accessible and fun.
