DogWatch Cigar Radio Podcast Episode #320 - Goodnight and Thanks for Listening
04-2-2011 This week Bob and Dale discuss two topics sent in from listener Peter Daly in Australia (Dale's practice of tasting the cigar head before lighting and how an old DogWatch podcast saved Big Pete from losing his lunch). Carl Holtman provides this week's "What's my band?" cigar, the Curivari El Gran Rey Emperadores. With Easter coming, Bob discusses jelly bean pairings with cigars. An April Fool's joke is played on the audience.

Do you have a suggestion for the unbanded cigar of the week? Every week Bob and Dale include an “unbanded cigar” segment in their show in which they smoke a cigar without any markings and give their honest opinions. Bob then opens a sealed envelope and discovers the cigar’s name and manufacturer. If you have suggestions for the "What's My Band?" segment, please send them to liz@cigarmedia.tv.

After hearing about the sampler offered at Studio Tobac Tours, I bought a box of Daytona robustos at the local event in Baton Rouge on 4-2. These are some very good cigars. I had to try them after hearing about them on the show and I am glad I did.
On itunes its labeled epsidoe 319 in the title, and episode 320 in the description. It more importantly wont download. Might want to try reposting it on itunes
I emailed them yesterday to let them know it wasn't downloading. Got an email back saying it's been fixed earlier this morning. Tried again when I got home from work and still not downloading.
I downloaded from iTunes this morning without an issue and just now from this link, again without an issue. You may need to clear your browser cache or some other setting but the file appears to be in the right place and working properly. I am sorry for your trouble.
It's on your guys' end. I can't download from the link above or still get it from iTunes.
Chris, if you could email me with details of the error I might be able to help. We have seen over a thousand downloads already of this episode.
I, too, cannot get the show to download. It begins and goes for a minute or two and then quits. If you've found anything that might help I'd love to see it. Thanks.
I am sorry for the trouble. All of the downloads come from the same source at Libsyn but they do have multiple copies across the server farm. So I have uploaded the show again to libsysn to replace the file that is there and hopefully replace the bad copy that seems to be floating around. I hope this helps.
