Congratulations George (Gizmo), Rooster, Poobah, Pagoda, Chef Ricky, Grinder, and Bam Bam.

To the best cigar podcast in the cigar world, we raise our glass to 200 episodes  

When the average lifespan of a new podcast is three episodes, you have delivered 200 quality episodes week after week without missing a beat. 

So proud of you lads. So proud of you George 

We should all toast the team some time this week while we enjoy a cigar and listening to your anniversary episode. Brilliant

Congratulations to the Lounge Lizards Team. Well done!

I'm just starting to get into the Lizards after I met George virtually in the original Discord test chat. Seemed to be a good guy, so I've given a couple podcasts a listen and I enjoy them a lot. Congratulations!

Atta boys! You guys are providing awesome content getting me thru my walking vest workout.

Love all the drink pairings as well!

[MoeFOH]

Congrats gents!

Congrats on 200! I haven't finished the episode yet so this may have been covered, but I quickly ran some stats and found the attendance rates intriguing.

Stick taps to Gizmo on a perfect* attendance record.

49% - Grinder & Poobah (we need more of both)
78% - Pagoda
83% - Chef (based on the ~65 or so episodes since he joined full time)
87% - Senator
94% - Rooster (this surprised me, but it shouldn't considering he's been around since the dawn of time)
95% - Bam

*We'll just look the other way and ignore the fact he runs everything, equipment, hosting & all, and clearly dictates the schedule.

Thank you all! The support from the FOH community over the years has been really special and fulfilling. I really appreciate you allowing us to become a part of your week - be it with a commute, a workout or alongside a cigar. I can't believe we're at 200 already...time truly flies!

Rob, thank you for your kind words! I'm truly flattered. I'm looking forward to celebrating in person with you (hopefully soon!).

Impressive analysis Greg! I do wish Poobah and Grinder could be with us more - but family, post-COVID return to office and travel schedules have made that difficult for them. While I do coordinate the schedule, I like to have 5 or 6 guys for most recordings so I'll do what I need to each week to accomplish it. It's usually not a moving target as we hit record right around Monday night 8pm 90% of the time...but life happens.

Refreshing and creative!!I I have really enjoyed the personalities and thoughts shared on Lounge Lizards. I find the podcast unpretentious and well informed.

[ecampz408]

Heck yeah, congrats Lizards! Nothing better than smoking a cigar every Tuesday with what feels like some of my friends. Let's go for 200 more!!

Congrats! It's a great podcast, it's great to be a fly on the wall of what is obviously a very good group of mates.
