Tony Katz and Fingers Malloy light up the Espinosa Murcielago, a 6x52 box-pressed cigar with a Mexican San Andrés wrapper, and quickly find out this is no lightweight smoke. What starts with a cracked wrapper and a wounded ego turns into a full conversation about bold flavor, oak, spice, richness, and whether this big, powerful cigar is worth about $11 a stick or just a little more than Fingers wants to commit to humidor-wise.

Also in this Happy Hour episode: Fingers battles a swollen lip from an unfortunate steak incident, the guys talk through what to do when a cigar hits a little too hard, and Tony walks through his cigar notebook method for figuring out your own flavor profile over time. Along the way, they get into a Costco pan recall that sounds like frying-pan roulette, cast iron steak experiments, overpriced used cars, YouTube growth, Byron Allen buying late-night TV time, ESPN layoffs, and why everything suddenly feels more expensive than it should.
