Lounge Lizards – a Cigar and Lifestyle Podcast
by Lounge Lizards
July 29, 2025 7:00 pm
Released every Tuesday, the LOUNGE LIZARDS podcast helps listeners navigate the experience of finding and enjoying premium cigars (both Cuban and non-Cuban) and quality spirits. Episodes are normally around 90 minutes long and feature a variety of different topics including food, travel, life, sports and work. The podcast features eight members: Rooster, Poobah, Gizmo, Senator, Pagoda, Chef Ricky, Grinder and Bam Bam. This is not your typical cigar podcast. We’re a group of friends who love sharing cigars, whiskey and a good laugh. Join us and become a card-carrying lounge lizard yourself!
