102
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:24,560
Speaker 7: I was always in I was in marketing, I was

103
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 7: in brand. I originally went to school for management information systems.

104
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,560
Speaker 7: You know, back in the day before you know, coding

105
00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 7: and everything, there was any path for that. So I

106
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,800
Speaker 7: was actually kind of a computer nerd, you know, wrote

107
00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 7: code and stuff like that. And then I really liked design,

108
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 7: So then I kind of got into that. I was

109
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 7: like liking design websites.

110
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 6: Right, So this is.

111
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 7: Back what two thousand and mid two thousand and five,

112
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:48,719
Speaker 7: two thousand and four, and then I was like, man,

113
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 7: marketing is really cool, right, So and then branding and

114
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:52,719
Speaker 7: all that kind of just came to it to a head.

115
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:54,640
Speaker 7: I got a com I got it. My first job

116
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 7: was in I was in two thousand and nine. So

117
00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 7: if you remember the economy in two thousand and nine,

118
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:03,920
Speaker 7: the big crash, it was the best time to graduate, right.

119
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 6: So the professor like the hell yeah, They're like, go

120
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:08,160
Speaker 6: to grad.

121
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 7: School because there's not gonna anything for you, right. So

122
00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 7: I got this job in an automotive company.

123
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:14,040
Speaker 6: They had it.

124
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 7: You know, it was a marketing position and I honestly

125
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:19,719
Speaker 7: it was a heavy duty. They did led lights and stuff,

126
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:24,120
Speaker 7: and I just built my my, uh my background from that.

127
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:26,320
Speaker 6: It was just honestly was a small marketing team. So

128
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:27,039
Speaker 6: we had to do a lot.

129
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:28,440
Speaker 7: You know, I'm sure you guys are were that Like

130
00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 7: when you're a smaller you know, smaller group, like you

131
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 7: have to wear a lot of.

132
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 6: Different hats and stuff.

133
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 7: Tea a lot though, but yeah, I mean you just

134
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:38,159
Speaker 7: got to do There's no like blaming anybody, right, Like,

135
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:42,160
Speaker 7: when you have that accountability, you just do it. And yeah,

136
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:44,279
Speaker 7: and that's all we could do, right, So I learned.

137
00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:46,200
Speaker 7: I cut my teeth on that, right. So it's like

138
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,720
Speaker 7: I have a ton of different backgrounds because we didn't

139
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 7: have a ton of people at that company to.

140
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 6: Do all this stuff, so you had to just do it,

141
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:56,280
Speaker 6: figure it out. And then I had an opportunity.

142
00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:56,719
Speaker 3: Uh.

143
00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:58,760

00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:38,840
Speaker 5: It was like, it's it's a classic.

163
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 7: Yeah, and the biggest thing to answer your question, I'm

164
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:44,039
Speaker 7: kind of going long, long way around it. But to me,

165
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,279
Speaker 7: I was at a time in my career where I

166
00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 7: was looking for a company that aligned with my personal beliefs,

167
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 7: and when I did my due diligence, you know, and

168
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:56,039
Speaker 7: I knew. You know, you talked about there's people that

169
00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 7: stay at Zippo for like fifty years, fifty five years,

170
00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 7: sixty years. It's like, why did they stay there. It's

171
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:02,719
Speaker 7: like because they actually espouse.

172
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:04,479
Speaker 6: You know, they live what they what they say.

173
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:06,360
Speaker 7: So like in our mission statement, you know, it says

174
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 7: that the people in the town of Bradford, which is

175
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 7: a small town in Pennsylvania where these are all made.

176
00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:13,000
Speaker 7: You look at the bottom of all of them, they

177
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 7: say made in Bradford, Pennsylvania.

178
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:19,920
Speaker 6: They really do live. They walk, they they talk, the talk,

00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 6: stayed that way.

181
00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 7: So it's been handed down generationally through family and so

182
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,040
Speaker 7: you know, it started with George E. Blaisdell, you know,

195
00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:01,560
Speaker 7: some of that stuff's intangible unless it's passed down explicitly

196
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:04,040
Speaker 7: from generations, it gets lost and then people and then

00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:53,280
Speaker 7: there's the there's lighter companies for a lot longer than Zippo.

247
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:53,680
Speaker 4: Sure.

248
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:55,360

250
00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:00,440

251
00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:02,120
Speaker 7: pay a cent to fix.

252
00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 5: That's crazy and we still have it.

253
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:05,199
Speaker 6: We still do that.

254
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,319
Speaker 3: That's the best part about it though that lifetime, Like

255
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:09,360
Speaker 3: I remember hearing that, Like I said, it gets passed

256
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:11,280
Speaker 3: down to you, you know, I mean like some people.

257
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:13,080
Speaker 3: I remember a couple of my buddies. Oh, my dad

258
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:14,559
Speaker 3: gave me this, and his dad gave him that.

259
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 4: How big collection.

260
00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:19,920
Speaker 6: Oh it's you know, it's getting better. Yeah, it's getting better.

261
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:22,600
Speaker 4: I mean we like to share. Yeah, we like to share.

262
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:24,000
Speaker 6: We like to share a lot of stuff.

263
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 4: We can't.

264
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,040
Speaker 7: We have to be really careful because like there's an

265
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 7: arbitrage market. I mean, there's a huge aftermarket for these products.

266
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 7: It's just like sneakers, right, like you we do a

267
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 7: limited release of something and then it comes out, you know,

268
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,040
Speaker 7: and somebody wants it, so you know, it could quadruple

269
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,040
Speaker 7: in price, I mean even more, you know, depending on

270
00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:40,960
Speaker 7: how how limited it is.

271
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:42,800
Speaker 5: So you know, that's one of the craziest ones you've seen.

272
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:45,000
Speaker 3: Like when you say that, I'm thinking of it random,

273
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 3: Like I'm mak sure exactly. Pick a Jordian, pick a Disneyland,

274
00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:51,760
Speaker 3: pick a Mickey Mouse, Like what's the big one that, Like,

275
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:53,480
Speaker 3: Oh my god, I can't believe I've seen this online

276
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:55,720
Speaker 3: going for five thousand dollars.

277
00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:58,680
Speaker 7: Honestly, I'd be a horrible because it goes back so long.

278
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,199
Speaker 7: We'd have to get one of those amazing people. That's

279
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:03,040
Speaker 7: been there for like fifty five years, right to even

280
00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:06,760
Speaker 7: take a chance at it because it's ninety years old. Yeah,

281
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:10,120
Speaker 7: I mean honestly, like, well, for instance, we did ones for.

282
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:13,839
Speaker 6: Uh, geez, what's his name now? I can't remember his name?

283
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:18,559
Speaker 6: Uh cowboy? What's his name? Old cowboy Willing?

284
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:20,800
Speaker 5: I just said wired like I was a cowboy?

285
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:20,959
Speaker 4: Is it?

286
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:22,320
Speaker 6: John Wayne?

287
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:23,080
Speaker 4: Way? Thank you?

288
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:24,880
Speaker 6: So we did it for John Wayne. It was like

289
00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:28,760
Speaker 6: he kept getting stolen from him. They kept stealing his lighters.

290
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,160
Speaker 7: So we actually put like this letter was stolen from

291
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:33,760
Speaker 7: John Wayne on there. So I figure, if you car

292
00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:35,480
Speaker 7: probably find one of those.

293
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:37,720
Speaker 5: Bad boys, oh man, that would.

294
00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:40,880
Speaker 6: Be worth some real coin. And then wow, but there's.

295
00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:45,240
Speaker 3: Other stuff stolen from John Wayne's zepp oh yeah.

296
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:46,720
Speaker 4: And it's actually it was one of his if it

297
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:48,199
Speaker 4: says yeah, they made him just for him.

298
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:49,040
Speaker 7: Wow.

299
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:52,080
Speaker 4: So it wasn't one that went into production, right, it

300
00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:53,120
Speaker 4: was just really his.

301
00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:54,720
Speaker 6: Right, And we do a lot of that stuff.

302
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:56,160
Speaker 7: That's where we have to be careful because it's like,

303
00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:58,559
Speaker 7: you know, there's like these are what you're seeing here,

304

Speaker 7: These are stocked. These are stocked as so we call

305
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,000
Speaker 7: those are those are basically like what's in a catalog.

306
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 7: But we do a ton of business with people where

307
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 7: they give us artwork or they work with our designers.

308

Speaker 3: I was.

334
00:12:57,559 --> 00:12:59,599
Speaker 7: I mean I still am serprised, you know when I

335
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 7: find out. I can't obviously talk about ton of them,

336
00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:04,040
Speaker 7: but you know some of these lighters that you know,

337
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:05,800
Speaker 7: these companies that we work with, and you're like, man,

338
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:07,520
Speaker 7: it's anything, it's literally anything.

339
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 6: Sure, it doesn't have.

340
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:12,440
Speaker 7: To be a lighter or a flame adjacent company. Sometimes

341
00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:15,079
Speaker 7: they just want to have a cool piece of like Americana. Yeah,

342
00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:17,960
Speaker 7: and it's the lifetime warranty comes with those two. So

343
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,160
Speaker 7: it's like that she Usually for these brands, like some

344
00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:22,160
Speaker 7: of these are like high fashion brand stuff like that,

345
00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:23,400
Speaker 7: I think they.

346
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:25,040
Speaker 6: Go the first thing that goes is the zippo.

347
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:27,880
Speaker 7: Yeah, a part of their capsule collection because people are like,

348
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:29,720
Speaker 7: I know, this is going to last forever. It's usually

349
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:31,840
Speaker 7: like under one hundred dollars, you know, but it's still

350
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:34,680
Speaker 7: that like quality piece that can be handed down and

351
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:36,320
Speaker 7: they can put in a display or use it.

352
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:39,000
Speaker 3: Like you said, like even like a Lion Chanel, like

353
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:41,439
Speaker 3: any of those brands would like want their own lighter.

354
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,360
Speaker 2: Just just imagine like you know, even here right like

355
00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:47,160
Speaker 2: above the kitchen right there, like a whole big zipo

356
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,120
Speaker 2: just all big more lighters. You know, you start thinking

357
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:53,840
Speaker 2: of it like like it's a collectible process, Like I

358
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:55,960
Speaker 2: look at that. There's a value to it, you know,

359
00:13:56,120 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 2: like I know that. You know, I've seen collections of

360
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:04,040
Speaker 2: just thousands of people. People have thousands of these zippos

361
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:06,480
Speaker 2: dude in their homes in different places. I mean, it's much.

362
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:07,440
Speaker 2: It's a culture.

363
00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:09,840
Speaker 6: There's a culture.

364
00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:13,320
Speaker 3: There's people that you know, Disney products, they collect zippos.

365
00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:14,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, big, big, big.

366
00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,679
Speaker 7: You know, We've got we've got Facebook groups, there's subreddits,

367
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:20,680
Speaker 7: there's there's all sorts of and and that's the I

368
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:22,720
Speaker 7: mean again, I'm just speaking from my own opinion here,

369
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:24,920
Speaker 7: you know, not not necessarily as a brand manager, but

370
00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:27,760
Speaker 7: one of the coolest things, you know, for me with

371
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:30,800
Speaker 7: it is it's the intangibility of it. I think nowadays

372
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:33,720
Speaker 7: there's so much like we measure everything, right, like what

373
00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 7: is the value of this thing directly to me?

374
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:39,800
Speaker 6: And I think, you know, cannabis and cigars.

375
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:43,760
Speaker 7: I've heard you know somebody like cigars a day, you're

376
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 7: the cigar I'm too, But like if somebody explains to you,

377
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:49,480
Speaker 7: like what value do you get out of like what

378
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:50,640
Speaker 7: tangible value?

379
00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 6: And it's like or some people's coffee, right, and you're like, I.

380
00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:57,120
Speaker 7: Really maybe I can't quantify this, right, but you know

381
00:14:57,160 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 7: that that's the magic of it is it it does

382
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 7: didn't have any necessarily quantifiable thing, right, Like I'm gonna

383
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 7: earn x y Z amount because I'm doing this thing because.

384
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,160
Speaker 4: Not gold exactly to save it, but it is gold.

385
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:12,160
Speaker 7: And it's like the last respites of these things that

386
00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:14,160
Speaker 7: like it's almost it's like alchemy.

387
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:15,920
Speaker 6: It's like I do it, I feel good.

388
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:18,920
Speaker 7: There's something that that's magical about this thing that I

389
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:20,880
Speaker 7: and that's and you got to have at least like

390
00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:23,400
Speaker 7: one of those things in your life that you don't measure,

391
00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:24,280
Speaker 7: that's not you're.

392
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 6: Not responsible to anybody for it. It's almost like you know,

393
00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:28,080
Speaker 6: I just do this for the enjoyment.

394
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 7: And zippos because it's again you can go out and

395
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:33,880
Speaker 7: buy tons of cheap lighters, you know, if you're just

396
00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:35,080
Speaker 7: looking to light something on fire.

397
00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 6: There's tons of stuff out there. But when you see

398
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:40,640
Speaker 6: people interact with these even today, like on.

399
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:42,880
Speaker 4: Set, everybody plays with them.

400
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:44,880
Speaker 3: And not only that, I think it was a movie

401
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:48,440
Speaker 3: or a character somebody that flicked up the zippo and

402
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,520
Speaker 3: lit up their cigarette. Like, that's what I remember as

403
00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:52,360
Speaker 3: a young kid seeing somebody.

404
00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 4: It is, I say, one of them that I know.

405
00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:58,240
Speaker 3: But the trick to doing it whatever, right, my trick.

406
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:01,600
Speaker 4: Shit, that's how you get.

Speaker 4: That one's the show. Let me tell the listeners walk

445
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:43,880
Speaker 4: us through it step by step. What do you get?

446
00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:45,680
Speaker 7: So this is this is one that I'll probably screw

447
00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 7: up because you know on camera. Uh, this is the

448
00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:50,479
Speaker 7: first one I learned when I when I joined zip

449
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:52,160
Speaker 7: because I didn't know any before I joined Zippo.

450
00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:54,240
Speaker 6: But it's I don't even know.

451
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:56,840
Speaker 7: What they call it, but basically you just you hold

452
00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:59,680
Speaker 7: it in the webbing. That's the he's telling Blue about this,

453
00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:01,879
Speaker 7: that you put in the webbing of your hand, of

454
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:03,560
Speaker 7: your hand, and then you build up pressure and you

455
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:06,119
Speaker 7: got to make sure that the hinge is facing upward

456
00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:08,320
Speaker 7: and you're grabbing the lid, and then you build up

457
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:10,400
Speaker 7: the pressure and then you just release it.

458
00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:11,800
Speaker 6: There we go.

459
00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:14,960
Speaker 4: It's a little slippery, it is. The silver ones are

460
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:15,919
Speaker 4: a little easier.

461
00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:18,360
Speaker 6: I do this all day every day.

462
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:22,080
Speaker 4: And not today. And the ones I think that one

463
00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:22,879
Speaker 4: has like a mesh.

464
00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:24,560
Speaker 5: I think it's when you're getting camera.

465
00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:27,120
Speaker 4: Yeah there there.

466
00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:29,760
Speaker 6: You really got to build up pressure on this bad.

467
00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:32,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, because it's not it's not like some one's a

468
00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:34,600
Speaker 4: little more difficult. I want to keep that one.

469
00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:35,520
Speaker 6: I think I'm mormon it up.

470
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:35,680
Speaker 4: Though.

471
00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:37,000
Speaker 7: You got to like get the hinge of these are

472
00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:39,040
Speaker 7: brand new, man. You gotta with the tricks, you know,

473
00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:39,440
Speaker 7: you gotta.

474
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:41,159
Speaker 4: You gotta break them in, break the hands in a

475
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:41,800
Speaker 4: little bit too.

476
00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:43,760
Speaker 3: So and we talk about the different lighters and the

477
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:45,080
Speaker 3: different capabilities.

478
00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:46,560
Speaker 5: I know they all light stuff.

479
00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:49,000
Speaker 7: But yeah, so this is an exciting part. Enough about me,

480
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:52,119
Speaker 7: let's talk about the lighters here. So I gave you guys,

481
00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 7: it's just so we can we got a little we

482
00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:56,680
Speaker 7: got a little distance here. Yeah, so if you turn

483
00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:59,160
Speaker 7: to sixty five and I'll try to make sure since

484
00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:02,119
Speaker 7: you know, this is an audio format here.

485
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:04,119
Speaker 3: By the way, and these are the type of this

486
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:07,080
Speaker 3: beautiful too, because I just like looking at all the

487
00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:07,880
Speaker 3: dumb lighters.

488
00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:09,439
Speaker 5: Oh my god, I'm one.

489
00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:11,080
Speaker 2: Of those guys that you look at all the baseball

490
00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:13,800
Speaker 2: they they've licensed every single baseball team. Oh yeah, so

491
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,000
Speaker 2: let's go from there. Let's start there, right, Yeah, we

492
00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:17,880
Speaker 2: got LB. I'm sure you got NFL.

493
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:18,359
Speaker 4: Yep.

494
00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:23,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're going to sixty sixty five sixty five, So sixty.

495
00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:25,400
Speaker 6: Five is based is our imprint methods.

496
00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:27,680
Speaker 7: And again if you guys, if I say stuff, no,

497
00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:30,119
Speaker 7: I'm pretty good at like because again I've only been

498
00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:32,879
Speaker 7: there for four years, which is like totally you're basically

499
00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:35,520
Speaker 7: just a rookie at Zippo when you're four years, which

500
00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:38,960
Speaker 7: again shows the you know, how committed people are to

501
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:42,920
Speaker 7: the brand that work there. But basically these are all

502
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:45,679
Speaker 7: the different imprint methods. And when we say imprint methods,

503
00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:48,880
Speaker 7: it's the way that the lighters are essentially decorated, right,

504
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:50,800
Speaker 7: So all these layers that you're looking so the one

505
00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:53,480
Speaker 7: that you're flipping here. This is the most This is

506
00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:56,480
Speaker 7: basically this is the top one right here, which is

507
00:19:56,520 --> 00:20:00,359
Speaker 7: color image. So it's just like basically the images it's

508
00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:02,520
Speaker 7: screened on. You know, there's a process that we do

509
00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:05,680
Speaker 7: that it's it's printed onto the later itself and then

510
00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:07,679
Speaker 7: it's just printed on a on a type of what

511
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:08,639
Speaker 7: we call base model.

512
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:10,800
Speaker 6: This one's fun because this one's glowing the dark. Now

513
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:11,679
Speaker 6: we can't really.

514
00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:14,199
Speaker 7: Show it here, but this is this is a newer

515
00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:17,640
Speaker 7: process or a newer base model that we we have for.

516
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:19,080
Speaker 4: The dark metal. That's awesome.

517
00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:22,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, here, let me put in my pocket blue.

518
00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:28,000
Speaker 6: It's probably pretty charged up now. They they glow like crazy.

519
00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:28,560
Speaker 3: Really.

520
00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:32,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's some stuff it's like little you can tell.

521
00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:34,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's got a little.

522
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:37,400
Speaker 4: Butt plan on it. Wend Yeah, oh that's so cool.

523
00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:38,760
Speaker 4: Fun one at night.

524
00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:40,640
Speaker 5: You got to find your lighter and you're in there.

525
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:42,880
Speaker 4: Oh this is great. Yeah, don't touch my lighter. Bro

526
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:45,200
Speaker 4: already dropped their first.

527
00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:47,359
Speaker 5: This is yours is all banged up.

528
00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:49,440
Speaker 4: Here. You go lifetime guarantee her.

529
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:53,120
Speaker 6: You'll make Yeah, you'll make it on that, okay, And.

530
00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:55,400
Speaker 7: I'm just gonna go over a couple like crazy fun

531
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:57,720
Speaker 7: ones and then if you guys have questions, that's I

532
00:20:57,720 --> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 7: think better format probably here.

533
00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:02,920
Speaker 6: Than me just droning on about this stuff. But so

534
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:05,400
Speaker 6: these are so these are I'll go over those ones later.

535
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:06,760
Speaker 6: Those are different case shapes.

536
00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:09,120
Speaker 7: So most of these shapes that we call it are

537
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:12,760
Speaker 7: just our standard shape. There's one big difference though, so

538
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:14,840
Speaker 7: in the in it there's like thirty five and then

539
00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,399
Speaker 7: there's forty one. Those are when the case shapes started

540
00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:19,960
Speaker 7: to change. So there was like the original shape which

541
00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:25,720
Speaker 7: was very very rectangular shark, and then basically over the years,

542
00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:27,680
Speaker 7: over the ninety years, it started kind of round out,

543
00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:30,080
Speaker 7: thin out a little bit. I didn't bring a slim

544
00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:31,720
Speaker 7: but we do have a slim model as well, which

545
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:35,920
Speaker 7: is like what it sounds like slim sound? Yeah, So

546
00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:37,680
Speaker 7: this is I'll shay, I guess this one. This one's

547
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:41,960
Speaker 7: really cool. So this is the five forty fusion. This

548
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:45,840
Speaker 7: is a again a proprietary process that we develop our

549
00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:49,160
Speaker 7: and we have an in house engineering team that their

550
00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:52,000
Speaker 7: job is to come up with ways to decorate these

551
00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:55,560
Speaker 7: lighters new ways all the time and to test them

552
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:58,000
Speaker 7: to where they'll pass our quality tests, which is when

553
00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:00,520
Speaker 7: you have a lifetime warranty on lighters are called testing

554
00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:04,640
Speaker 7: is very very strict. So this is a process where

555
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:06,800
Speaker 7: the lighter, you know, i'll hand this to you, you

556
00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:09,560
Speaker 7: will be able to see the metal underneath the lighter

557
00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:14,960
Speaker 7: and and it's actually it's actually the design is on

558
00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:18,439
Speaker 7: top of that metal and it goes around the entire

559
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:23,400
Speaker 7: so it goes across the top as well. No, no, no,

560
00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:26,800
Speaker 7: it's actually yeah, it's actually, so the metal, the sheene

561
00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 7: that you're seeing is actually the metal. It's not like

562
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:33,480
Speaker 7: some you know, sort of like facade metal or something

563
00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:35,119
Speaker 7: like that. That's actually the metal of the lighter that

564
00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:35,639
Speaker 7: you're seeing.

565
00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:38,600
Speaker 3: I'm a lighter geek that like I literally look at

566
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:39,880
Speaker 3: lighters and I like them.

567
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 4: I mean it's such a like I don't know.

568
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:45,040
Speaker 7: Well, and it's the hand the hand field, so we

569
00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:48,200
Speaker 7: call that different. We we sell to all different basically

570
00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:51,320
Speaker 7: every country in the world essentially at this point minus

571
00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:51,800
Speaker 7: a few now.

572
00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:55,600
Speaker 6: But there's there's actually hand field.

573
00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:57,520
Speaker 4: This is a really nice piece.

574
00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:00,280
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's the newer piece design.

575
00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:01,720
Speaker 5: Is that a dragon drag again?

576
00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:04,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a really nice I mean you could even

577
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:05,560
Speaker 4: tell the quality. That's what I mean.

578
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:08,560
Speaker 3: When you feel the real zipp you're like cool, you

579
00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:09,600
Speaker 3: know what I mean, this feels cool.

580
00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:11,960
Speaker 4: I'm fine, Yeah, this thing feels like quality.

581
00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:14,800
Speaker 2: This is well, they all feel quality, but that just yeah,

582
00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:16,600
Speaker 2: they all feel great, you know. I mean but this

583
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:18,679
Speaker 2: they all feel better than most lighters, any any other

584
00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:19,639
Speaker 2: lighter on the market.

585
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:21,600
Speaker 4: But but I mean this.

586
00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:23,560
Speaker 3: This this is you could tell like this, is there

587
00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:25,600
Speaker 3: a standard where they all use butane or do they

588
00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:26,439
Speaker 3: use fuel too?

589
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:29,119
Speaker 6: So we can we can go into that if you.

590
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:31,440
Speaker 7: I'd like to spend some time on that to cover

591
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:33,600
Speaker 7: the difference there, because that's one of the things that

592
00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:35,240
Speaker 7: were actually for me talking to people.

593
00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:36,360
Speaker 6: I think there's a lot of.

594
00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:39,320
Speaker 7: Confusion around that, like what buttane versus fuel is and

595
00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:41,960
Speaker 7: like how that works. I just want to show you

596
00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:44,960
Speaker 7: guys this, This is probably one of my favorite newer designs.

597
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:48,320
Speaker 7: That's the so that's the standard five forty. So the

598
00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:50,080
Speaker 7: other one is the five forty fusion where you can

599
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:53,440
Speaker 7: see through it. That one you can't see through it, right,

600
00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:56,480
Speaker 7: So that's that's actually just on top of there.

601
00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:58,119
Speaker 6: And then yeah, you can like that, I think that one.

602
00:23:58,200 --> 00:23:59,960
Speaker 2: So this is just going kind of you just pulled

603
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,520
Speaker 2: this whole piece out and now the other ones are

604
00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:02,959
Speaker 2: built in.

605
00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:04,800
Speaker 6: All these are built.

606
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:07,400
Speaker 7: So whenever you order a zippo, you'll you'll you will

607
00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:08,960
Speaker 7: get that standard insert.

608
00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:10,879
Speaker 3: The three pieces, two pieces, two pieces.

609
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:13,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, the top though, yeah, okay.

610
00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:14,800
Speaker 6: Yep, that's hinged on because the old one.

611
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 7: Now, the thing one of the things that this is

612
00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:19,760
Speaker 7: in our history that George actually is the founder. When

613
00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,480
Speaker 7: he was talking to one of his friends, it was

614
00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:24,720
Speaker 7: an Austray it was an Austrian lighter company, and you

615
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:26,159
Speaker 7: had to take the top off and then put the

616
00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:26,639
Speaker 7: top back on.

617
00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:28,520
Speaker 6: He's like, well that's kind of annoying, right, like.

618
00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:31,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, you lose the top and it's like you

619
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:32,159
Speaker 3: can't do it one handed.

620
00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:35,159
Speaker 6: And I mean that's and again that's that's part of

621
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 6: our history.

622
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:39,919
Speaker 3: It was, right, Yeah, you feel like you just feel

623
00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:40,720
Speaker 3: like something.

624
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:43,440
Speaker 4: When you like you can't do that with one hand.

625
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:45,960
Speaker 2: If you if you had just the top that came off,

626
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:47,720
Speaker 2: you have to physically pull it off.

627
00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:50,520
Speaker 4: And I like the smell of it.

628
00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:52,400
Speaker 6: And that's that's the other thing.

629
00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:55,120
Speaker 7: Like we have these new inserts, we have these buttane inserts,

630
00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:57,639
Speaker 7: which some people have that preference, right like they want

631
00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:00,800
Speaker 7: they want the buttane, they want the clear cleaner smell,

632
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:02,760
Speaker 7: right like they want that. But then there's other people

633
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:05,280
Speaker 7: and again there's there's features of benefits to both. Like

634
00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:09,440
Speaker 7: the traditional insert that lighter fuel, that's wind proof. I

635
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:11,080
Speaker 7: mean that's going to pass weeks to have. Back in

636
00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:13,560
Speaker 7: the day, it was the fan test, so like you

637
00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:15,199
Speaker 7: could go up to that fan right over there and

638
00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:15,760
Speaker 7: hold it up.

639
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 6: That thing's not going out. It was just stay so you.

640
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:20,720
Speaker 7: Can be on the golf course because if you guys

641
00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:23,960
Speaker 7: smoke of the jet. No, this is the traditional, this

642
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:25,760
Speaker 7: is the lighter. This is this guy right here. Oh

643
00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 7: really is so that that wind proof that chimney right there,

644
00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:32,520
Speaker 7: So like this guy, that guy there, even in front

645
00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:33,480
Speaker 7: of a fan, it won't go out.

646
00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:34,200
Speaker 6: If there's a fan test.

647
00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:35,720
Speaker 7: So we would do the fan test, and that was

648
00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:37,600
Speaker 7: that was part of the marketing back in the day.

649
00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:41,200
Speaker 6: And like the thirties and forties and twoties, like yeah.

650
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:43,520
Speaker 7: Pretty good, which is annoying anybody that smoked outside, like

651
00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:46,680
Speaker 7: it is super annoying when you're freaking your.

652
00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:49,640
Speaker 3: Flame goes out, happens all the time.

653
00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:50,840
Speaker 6: And you're like trying to cop it.

654
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:53,120
Speaker 7: You're let figure figure out where, like this, where it's

655
00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:55,320
Speaker 7: coming from, so you can block your body and everything.

656
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:58,479
Speaker 7: And so that that is a huge benefit. But some

657
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:01,000
Speaker 7: people they're indoor smokers whatever, that's not a thing for them.

658
00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:03,399
Speaker 7: Then these buttane inserts and the jet, the jet you

659
00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:05,960
Speaker 7: can do better outside because it's pressure ized, right, because

660
00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:10,120
Speaker 7: it's it's hitting you more with Like I can show this, well,

661
00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:11,840
Speaker 7: this is actually the yellow flame. So this is the

662
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:16,199
Speaker 7: this is butane. So this is very much like the

663
00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:17,080
Speaker 7: traditional insert.

664
00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:19,399
Speaker 4: But it's that's not wind proof.

665
00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:22,320
Speaker 7: Now it's wind resistant. We say wind resistant, but it's

666
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:24,720
Speaker 7: not wind proof. It's not when it's the original has

667
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:26,800
Speaker 7: the wick in there. So the way the wick and

668
00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:30,760
Speaker 7: the chimney work together, that's how that's the magic of

669
00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:31,920
Speaker 7: of how it how it can.

670
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:32,320
Speaker 6: Be wind proof.

671
00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:35,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's awesome without a wicked that old school wick

672
00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:38,240
Speaker 2: man that that that o ge I just I.

673
00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:42,920
Speaker 4: Almost remember, you know, winter time.

674
00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:45,600
Speaker 2: You know, my dad, my dad was a big you know,

675
00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:47,560
Speaker 2: zip o guy, and you know I grew up. My

676
00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:50,720
Speaker 2: dad would smoke all his life, cannabis and cigarettes and

677
00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:53,720
Speaker 2: anything else he gets his hands on. And you know,

678
00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:56,880
Speaker 2: to be honest with you, just uh, you know, he

679
00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:00,920
Speaker 2: always had zippos. Yeah, always there was on his counters

680
00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:03,560
Speaker 2: in his pocket. You know, he'd roll them. Yeah, that's

681
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:04,440
Speaker 2: his thing.

682
00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:06,959
Speaker 3: You see the accessories here, like they have the clips

683
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:07,800
Speaker 3: like you could hold it on.

684
00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:08,800
Speaker 5: The side like a phone clip.

685
00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:10,720
Speaker 7: So one of my favorites is that's so dope is

686
00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:13,800
Speaker 7: the tactical pouch anybody that anybody does at the bottom

687
00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:16,320
Speaker 7: there that guy right there that's made. So it was

688
00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:19,600
Speaker 7: a project I worked on where it's actually a company

689
00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:22,280
Speaker 7: that that that makes it is. We have a sister

690
00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:25,520
Speaker 7: company called Case Knives and they make it's literally like

691
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:28,199
Speaker 7: down the road from us, and Case Knives is if

692
00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:31,000
Speaker 7: you're into knives, you know that company. And these are

693
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:33,399
Speaker 7: all owned by zip Corp, which is the company that

694
00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:37,439
Speaker 7: owns Zippo. Northern Whites was a candle company and then

695
00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:40,880
Speaker 7: also Case Knives, and so it's Atchison Leather. They're they're

696
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:43,679
Speaker 7: a company right out of I always forget is it

697
00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:46,720
Speaker 7: Kansas or I can't remember, but they we worked with

698
00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:47,400
Speaker 7: them to me and.

699
00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:48,240
Speaker 6: It's US made.

700
00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:52,520
Speaker 7: So it's like that has that little pouch has the

701
00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:55,600
Speaker 7: DNA right, Like we went through iteration and we're like, no,

702
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:56,960
Speaker 7: this needs to be better, it needs to be better,

703
00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:59,640
Speaker 7: it needs be better, and and you know, and now

Speaker 3: com are on Instagram at Kellijuana Brands. Edwin Ledwin Ledwig

734
00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:22,320
Speaker 3: excuse me, is the global brand manager for Zippo. We've

735
00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:25,200
Speaker 3: been looking at so many Zippos. We're gonna find out

736
00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:28,240
Speaker 3: which is your favorite. But let's break down the difference

737
00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:31,920
Speaker 3: between the fuel and the flame.

738
00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:33,800
Speaker 4: What is it exactly? What's the difference?

739
00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:35,960
Speaker 7: Okay, right, so we only got so much time, so

740
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:38,160
Speaker 7: I'm not gonna spend too much time on this, but

741
00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:40,320
Speaker 7: it is something that's come up when I've been talking

742
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:43,000
Speaker 7: to different people when there's seems there's some misconceptions that

743
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:45,240
Speaker 7: I just wanted to expel some of these myths. So

744
00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:48,080
Speaker 7: the main thing, I don't have a cannabutane with me unfortunately,

745
00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:49,760
Speaker 7: because you can't fly with a futane.

746
00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:51,959
Speaker 5: Have some unique no, no, I can.

747
00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:54,320
Speaker 6: I can talk to it. It's but we do make Zippo.

748
00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:58,320
Speaker 7: We make Zippo buttane, We have Zippo later fluid later fuel.

749
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:03,160
Speaker 7: The difference here is really what they do. So this fuel,

750
00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:06,680
Speaker 7: the lighter fuel, is really only going to be compatible

751
00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:10,920
Speaker 7: with the standard insert, the traditional insert, the wick insert,

752
00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:12,680
Speaker 7: and the way you can tell is when you turn

753
00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:14,760
Speaker 7: it upside down. Besides that, the holes is that it's

754
00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:17,480
Speaker 7: got this lift to fill. And the proper way to

755
00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:19,960
Speaker 7: fill this is you pull this little felt tab up

756
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:23,800
Speaker 7: and then you open this, you know, and you put

757
00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:26,440
Speaker 7: the nozzle underneath there. You fill it to where it's

758
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:28,640
Speaker 7: just slightly satured, you know, you see it saturated. There's

759
00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:31,520
Speaker 7: cotton underneath, there's ray on underneath there. You put this

760
00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:34,800
Speaker 7: tab back down and and then that'll last you, you know,

761
00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:37,880
Speaker 7: a few weeks, it will, it will potentially it will

762
00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:41,920
Speaker 7: evaporate after a while because it's an open fuel source.

763
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:44,640
Speaker 6: So there's the wick the way that it works, and that.

764
00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:47,720
Speaker 7: Helps you know, the even though that's a bit of

765
00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:50,800
Speaker 7: a negative in some people's eyes, it does allow you to.

766
00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:53,640
Speaker 6: Have the wind proof feature. Sure, so there's it's one

767
00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:55,960
Speaker 6: of those gain one lose one over here.

768
00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:59,880
Speaker 7: So then over here we've got this is basically it's

769
00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:03,640
Speaker 7: unter part, which is buttane. Now this is closed, right,

770
00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:06,080
Speaker 7: So this this system that there's a bladder in here

771
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:09,760
Speaker 7: that contains that gas, right, the liquefied gas with buttane.

772
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:12,720
Speaker 7: You do not ever want to fill. We've had people

773
00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:16,560
Speaker 7: try this. You never want to try to use lighter fuel.

774
00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:19,600
Speaker 6: In a buttane doesn't work a you're probably never gonna

775
00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:20,760
Speaker 6: get it in Are you gonna get it in there?

776
00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:22,040
Speaker 4: You're gonna use a little hole.

777
00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:25,400
Speaker 7: However, however, for those who really don't want to put

778
00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:29,880
Speaker 7: buttane in the traditional insert, and we've had people try

779
00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:32,520
Speaker 7: to do that as well. You know, they take the

780
00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:35,600
Speaker 7: pressurized gas, they stick it in and that gas builds

781
00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:36,880
Speaker 7: up in there, and then they go to light it

782
00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:39,280
Speaker 7: and poof flows there's a ball. Right, So they never

783
00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:42,800
Speaker 7: use butane gas in its traditional lighter.

784
00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:44,040
Speaker 6: Sure, always make.

785
00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:49,320
Speaker 7: Sure some of the benefits of butane, right, Like it's odorless, tasteless, right,

786
00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:54,120
Speaker 7: you know, it's it's becoming much more well known. Right,

787
00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:56,160
Speaker 7: So I don't need to go on necessarily too long

788
00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:59,480
Speaker 7: about that. Versus, like I said, with this, the traditional

789
00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:03,200
Speaker 7: lighter flu would lighter fuel, I should say, gives you

790
00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:06,520
Speaker 7: that sort of wind proof effect, right with.

791
00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:08,520
Speaker 4: The smell of like a fire pain.

792
00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:10,560
Speaker 6: Some people love it, some people don't like it. And

793
00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:11,960
Speaker 6: it's a total preference, you know.

794
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:14,400
Speaker 3: It's like to me, it's the zippo feel. Yeah, it's

795
00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:15,760
Speaker 3: the smell tradition.

796
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:16,440
Speaker 4: I like it.

797
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:16,959
Speaker 6: I love it.

798
00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:18,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's like when I delighted you.

799
00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:22,160
Speaker 4: Oh there's a real zip for me. The wick is

800
00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:23,920
Speaker 4: where it's at. I mean it's always been.

801
00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:25,360
Speaker 6: But I love the answers to I will say.

802
00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:27,160
Speaker 7: I'm like I said, I'm a cigar guy too as well.

803
00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:30,440
Speaker 7: And uh, sometimes like you want to you're outside and

804
00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:33,560
Speaker 7: double torch, like I just want to be able to

805
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:35,600
Speaker 7: toast that foot, you know, And there's different things that

806
00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:38,600
Speaker 7: you want to, you know, be more surgical about how

807
00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:41,160
Speaker 7: you're lighting. And anytime you want to be surgical, that's

808
00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:43,720
Speaker 7: that's where those torches come in. And there I should

809
00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:46,920
Speaker 7: probably show this is how easy, Oh this is. I'll

810
00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:49,160
Speaker 7: show this the guy. So I'll show that one in

811
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:52,080
Speaker 7: a second. This is actually one of the coolest cases.

812
00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:54,240
Speaker 7: This is not my favorite. To answer your question that.

813
00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:56,360
Speaker 6: You you teased a little bit before. This is one

814
00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:57,080
Speaker 6: of my favorites though.

815
00:32:57,240 --> 00:32:59,520
Speaker 7: This is a deep carve, This is an armor case,

816
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:01,320
Speaker 7: This is a this is one and a half times

817
00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:04,960
Speaker 7: thicker case, so that's actually physically heavier.

818
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:06,680
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, oh yeah, that's it.

819
00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:10,080
Speaker 7: It's called deep carve, or actually that one's called multi cut.

820
00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:12,719
Speaker 7: Is the process so that multi cut actually is etched

821
00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:16,000
Speaker 7: into the lighter itself. That's not printed or there's nothing

822
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:19,720
Speaker 7: that's literally carved. That's it's a brass, thick metal. It

823
00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:21,640
Speaker 7: has to be because otherwise.

824
00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:23,240
Speaker 6: You'd puncture it. You go right through it.

825
00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:24,000
Speaker 4: Beautiful.

826
00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:28,520
Speaker 7: So that's a premium. That's one of our premium lines,

827
00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:30,000
Speaker 7: the Multicu.

828
00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:32,360
Speaker 3: I could just tell that's expensive right there, right. I mean,

829
00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:34,000
Speaker 3: it looks like a from a.

830
00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:38,200
Speaker 7: Movie theater, and that's an antique finish that has it

831
00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:39,920
Speaker 7: has a finish that gives it that black and look.

832
00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:41,800
Speaker 7: But then it's coded to make sure that again it

833
00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:44,120
Speaker 7: will stand the test of time. It's not gonna wear

834
00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:45,760
Speaker 7: in your pocket and all that. I mean, there's gonna

835
00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:47,520
Speaker 7: be a little wear and that's what people actually like,

836
00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:49,760
Speaker 7: that little bit of distress. But it's not gonna like,

837
00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:52,360
Speaker 7: it's not gonna be gone and you know two days

838
00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:54,120
Speaker 7: or two weeks or so.

839
00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:56,640
Speaker 5: Now the big question is and when what is your

840
00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:57,280
Speaker 5: favorite one?

841
00:33:57,360 --> 00:33:58,320
Speaker 6: I was trying to avoid that.

842
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:01,760
Speaker 5: I think, is which one do you have in your pocket?

843
00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:07,480
Speaker 6: I have all these, I do have a favorite. I

844
00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:09,719
Speaker 6: do have a favorite. It's it's but it's not one

845
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:12,040
Speaker 6: that was ever released. It was Oh man, that's not.

846
00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:16,360
Speaker 7: The uh, it's the cop that we released the copper

847
00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:19,120
Speaker 7: a full copper case, and there's just something about it

848
00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:23,280
Speaker 7: that I absolutely love. We just did a re release

849
00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:25,480
Speaker 7: of it, I think before we had only done it

850
00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:27,800
Speaker 7: in two thousand and three, I think was a release

851
00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:29,640
Speaker 7: and then there. We just did a release last year

852
00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:33,920
Speaker 7: of a full copper case. We did we just released this.

853
00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:37,319
Speaker 7: This is a This is called a bimetal. This is

854
00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:40,040
Speaker 7: the only second time that we've done this where it's

855
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:42,000
Speaker 7: literally sterling silver on half of it.

856
00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:47,520
Speaker 6: So this one's pretty cool. Again in my book, yeah.

857
00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:49,520
Speaker 4: Said he said, this was second time we've ever only

858
00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:49,919
Speaker 4: done it.

859
00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:52,000
Speaker 7: Well, in the first time, it was like an ultra

860
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:54,600
Speaker 7: I mean it was like super super I mean hand

861
00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:57,080
Speaker 7: done and stuff. So this is actually a process that

862
00:34:57,160 --> 00:35:00,360
Speaker 7: our engineering team had to resurface memory. They had to

863
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:01,880
Speaker 7: go through all the checks and bounces of Q and

864
00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:04,160
Speaker 7: A all that stuff to make sure that we could

865
00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:05,040
Speaker 7: make this come to fruition.

866
00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:07,000
Speaker 6: And so really happy that we've been able to launch it.

867
00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:08,279
Speaker 6: But it's not you know, it's not.

868
00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:11,399
Speaker 7: Cheap, but yeah, it's a I bet you in ten

869
00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:14,080
Speaker 7: years you'll look back and these things will be selling

870
00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:15,319
Speaker 7: for yeah credit bit of money.

871
00:35:15,400 --> 00:35:17,400
Speaker 3: Well, I see one on here for thirty dollars and

872
00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:20,239
Speaker 3: ninety five cents thirty one. What is the most expensive

873
00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:21,480
Speaker 3: Zippo lighter you guys have?

874
00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:25,400
Speaker 4: Well, I think that's a hard to say because I

875
00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:26,799
Speaker 4: think it's it's not that they have.

876
00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:30,080
Speaker 3: I think it's the collector. Well, that's that, but that's

877
00:35:30,080 --> 00:35:33,560
Speaker 3: not them right now. I well, no, that's from eBay

878
00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:35,400
Speaker 3: and that's a collector's item. But I mean, if you

879
00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:37,719
Speaker 3: want to buy right now the most expensive lighter from

880
00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:40,680
Speaker 3: directly from Zippo, and it might be worth more later.

881
00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:42,000
Speaker 4: That's a good thing about Zippo.

882
00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:45,919
Speaker 3: It's like it's like Rolex, you know, you don't lose

883
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:46,560
Speaker 3: its value.

884
00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:48,959
Speaker 4: That's where they should do a collab with Rolex.

885
00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:50,640
Speaker 6: You know, shame on me. I should know this off

886
00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:51,279

Speaker 7: for the it's everybody gets the same treatment, Like it

921
00:36:56,760 --> 00:36:59,319
Speaker 7: goes through the same the you know, it goes through

922
00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:02,000
Speaker 7: Bradford to go to our factory. The same workers that

923
00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:04,280
Speaker 7: have been working on it for fifty years are working

924
00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:04,680
Speaker 7: on those.

925
00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:05,320
Speaker 4: Wow.

926
00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:07,120
Speaker 6: I mean with the goal they have to do a

927
00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:08,560
Speaker 6: white glove service. It's it's a.

928
00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:10,919
Speaker 7: Very They follow it through the plant, but it goes

929
00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:13,560
Speaker 7: through the same plant. It's not like we ship it

930
00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:16,200
Speaker 7: out to, you know, somewhere else and have them do

931
00:37:16,239 --> 00:37:17,200
Speaker 7: it and we call it ours.

932
00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:20,480
Speaker 4: Do you ever let people do tours to the plant? Oh? Yeah, yeah, yeah,

933
00:37:20,520 --> 00:37:22,360

Speaker 3: course they do it for any company that's out there.

937
00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:33,000
Speaker 3: But was it a struggle for them or challenge to

938
00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:35,279
Speaker 3: jump into the cannabis market and put the whole weed

939
00:37:35,360 --> 00:37:37,200
Speaker 3: leap on it and embrace the community.

940
00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:38,400
Speaker 5: Because I feel like they've been.

941
00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:40,640
Speaker 3: A part of it, you know, But do you I mean,

942
00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:42,920
Speaker 3: they've obviously been a part of it before your four.

943
00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:43,560
Speaker 4: Years of being there.

944
00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:45,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, but did you hear the history.

945
00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:47,520
Speaker 3: Of them saying no, man, we have to capitalize on

946
00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:49,279
Speaker 3: this and not be afraid to put the plant on this.

947
00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:49,839
Speaker 1: Yeah.

948
00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:51,160
Speaker 6: No, it's not that at all.

949
00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:56,000
Speaker 7: So it's it's really Zippo is a very I don't

950
00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:58,360
Speaker 7: want to say modest company, but the company itself is

951
00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:02,480
Speaker 7: like we we don't want to you know, be political.

952
00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:04,279
Speaker 7: We don't want it, you know, we just want to

953
00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:07,359
Speaker 7: be able to deliver products that are quality and make

954
00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:09,640
Speaker 7: people happy with them and you know, make make sure

955
00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:12,840
Speaker 7: that they're satisfied and you know, like live with confidence

956
00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:15,160
Speaker 7: is one of our speaking points right now, so they

957
00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:17,440
Speaker 7: can live with confidence and it's non judgmental, Like we

958
00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:19,600
Speaker 7: don't want to say, you know, you should do this

959
00:38:19,640 --> 00:38:21,440
Speaker 7: and you shouldn't do Now, there's things that we won't do,

960
00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:24,560
Speaker 7: you know, if it's like promoting hate or things like that. Right, Yeah,

961
00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:27,000
Speaker 7: But besides that, you know, we want to be advocates

962
00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:29,959
Speaker 7: for for people now with legalization and stuff like that

963
00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:34,600
Speaker 7: that's happening, and you know, we're not trying to if anything.

964
00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:37,160
Speaker 7: I think it's funny because there's so many companies that

965
00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:39,399
Speaker 7: I feel like are trying to capitalize that have been trying,

966
00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:41,960
Speaker 7: like they're making products to try to get into the space,

967
00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:44,640
Speaker 7: and the whole time, like we've had a product that

968
00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:47,719
Speaker 7: is naturally in the space and we just have been like, okay, well,

969
00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:50,000
Speaker 7: if you want it, like there's there's products that you know,

970
00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:52,160
Speaker 7: people like, you know, companies. I'm not going to go

971
00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:55,000
Speaker 7: into those companies that have been putting their brands, you know,

972
00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:58,279
Speaker 7: cannabis brands on the lighter and stuff. But now we're

973
00:38:58,320 --> 00:39:01,160
Speaker 7: just officially kind of getting into saying like go ahead,

974
00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:03,480
Speaker 7: how do we be more authentic?

975
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:03,680
Speaker 2: Right?

976
00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:06,000
Speaker 7: And like how who should we talk to right to

977
00:39:06,120 --> 00:39:08,560
Speaker 7: get this out? Because everywhere I've gone, I've been doing

978
00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:12,560

Speaker 6: Right, We're just in for four twenty.

994
00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:42,440
Speaker 7: We were in LA and we were at Hippy Hill

995
00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:46,680
Speaker 7: and San Francisco and Greensville Street, and so we were

996
00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:50,360

997
00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:52,359

00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:53,439
Speaker 6: You know what? These are so cool?

999
00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:55,239
Speaker 7: I love these things and I think it goes hand

1000
00:39:55,239 --> 00:39:57,440
Speaker 7: in hand with the space, right It's it's sort of

1001
00:39:57,480 --> 00:40:00,839
Speaker 7: that that enjoyment, the thing we're talking about before, where

1002
00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:03,919
Speaker 7: you're not necessarily quantifying it, like when you come into

1003
00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:06,280
Speaker 7: the Zipp But we have a flagship store in Bradford,

1004
00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:09,040
Speaker 7: and I love going into the store and you hear

1005
00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:11,680
Speaker 7: like there's older people, there's younger people, and it's like

1006
00:40:11,680 --> 00:40:14,359
Speaker 7: an adult candy store, right, Like they go in there

1007
00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:17,840
Speaker 7: and there's huge glass displays of ZIP that like hundreds

1008
00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:19,359
Speaker 7: of of and they just.

1009
00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:22,799
Speaker 4: Choose exactly how do you choose? That's what you're going

1010
00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:24,879
Speaker 4: like an buy what about like ten of them?

1011
00:40:24,920 --> 00:40:27,040
Speaker 6: I don't know, and they align with their personality.

1012
00:40:27,120 --> 00:40:28,960
Speaker 7: And it's like that's why we have live with confidence

1013
00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:31,120
Speaker 7: because it's like you get to choose what one kind

1014
00:40:31,160 --> 00:40:33,680
Speaker 7: of just aligns with your own personality.

1015
00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:35,120
Speaker 4: The whole collection. So I could have a wall of

1016
00:40:35,160 --> 00:40:35,759
Speaker 4: them to just be.

1017
00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:38,799
Speaker 7: Like, yeah we have we have people to do that,

1018
00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:42,080
Speaker 7: and yeah we've got displays for that wall display on the.

1019
00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:44,319
Speaker 3: Top half so let me ask you this though you

1020
00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:46,719
Speaker 3: mentioned the one torch, do you guys do like the

1021
00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:50,120
Speaker 3: other cigar lighters or four tords or two tords?

1022
00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:51,920
Speaker 5: Like how high do you guys go with that?

1023
00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:52,200
Speaker 4: Yep?

1024
00:40:52,239 --> 00:40:54,680
Speaker 7: So the with the inserts on the zippo side, we

1025
00:40:54,760 --> 00:40:57,880
Speaker 7: have a single torch, and then we have a double torch.

1026
00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:01,719
Speaker 7: And and again these are literally just swap in, swap out,

1027
00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:04,920
Speaker 7: so you can if you want, you could literally just

1028
00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:07,759
Speaker 7: buy one lighter one later case and then you can

1029
00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:11,040
Speaker 7: buy the the torch, the buttane torch insert nice and

1030
00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:13,279
Speaker 7: just convert it over. So if you're like, oh, I'm

1033
00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:19,560
Speaker 7: we see more people do, and again to your point

1034
00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:22,680
Speaker 7: of collecting, is they just buy they buy me later.

1035
00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:23,960

Speaker 5: I need that case for that me.

1037
00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:29,840
Speaker 2: Like if you had a yellow one on today or

1038
00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:32,480
Speaker 2: like even like that multi color one, I might I mean,

1039
00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:34,920
Speaker 2: like I I accessorize so much, I might take that one.

1040
00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:36,400
Speaker 4: Let me see this one right here, because you got

1045
00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:48,840
Speaker 2: with it, you know, on purpose, knowing that I'm wearing

1046

1050
00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:05,960
Speaker 2: you know, I like the option of having some to coordinate.

1051
00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:09,319
Speaker 2: That would be an amazing thing to you know, have

1052

Speaker 2: whatever they had a little one of your authorized dealers

1062

Speaker 2: you know.

1065
00:42:35,719 --> 00:42:37,920

00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:27,719
Speaker 7: So like I love the science of t so I've

1093
00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:30,040
Speaker 7: learned as much as I can right in the amount

1094
00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:30,279
Speaker 7: of time.

1095
00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:31,200
Speaker 6: But like you know, the.

1096
00:43:31,200 --> 00:43:34,880
Speaker 7: Tri chromes and the tri combs and the you know

1097
00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:37,280
Speaker 7: as far as like the turpens and the charge effect

1098
00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:41,160
Speaker 7: and like how that works and decarboxylation and you know,

1099
00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:46,080
Speaker 7: like turning the the CBD and a the acid so you're.

1100
00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:49,200
Speaker 3: Not using no CBD at all. No, So I could

1101
00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:51,000
Speaker 3: tell you work out. You look like you work out

1102
00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:54,080
Speaker 3: your shoulders on you. That being said, dude, I'm gonna

1103
00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:57,800
Speaker 3: guarantee that when you start using some CBD, you'll start

1104
00:43:57,840 --> 00:44:00,200
Speaker 3: feeling it lubricate that. But you'll just start seeing a

1105
00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:03,600
Speaker 3: little difference in your recovery. Maybe like go on some

1106
00:44:03,640 --> 00:44:06,720
Speaker 3: studying yourself, like do a hard workout and then start

1107
00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:09,080
Speaker 3: taking some CBD for a week and do that same

1108
00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:11,799
Speaker 3: hard workout where you're fatigued, whether it's doing something where

1109
00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:13,600
Speaker 3: you're like, okay, that one hurt. You know, I can

1110
00:44:13,600 --> 00:44:17,600
Speaker 3: feel the doms the delayed OxT two days afterwards. And

1111
00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:20,000
Speaker 3: then start taking some CBD and watch how it will

1112
00:44:20,080 --> 00:44:22,799
Speaker 3: lessen that, you know what I mean, because the recovery

1113
00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:27,080
Speaker 3: process lubricating your joints. I'm a believer where I wasn't

1114
00:44:27,080 --> 00:44:30,040
Speaker 3: a believer in CBD and cannabis use before I even met,

1115
00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:32,160
Speaker 3: like before I came to the show, Like I wasn't

1116
00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:34,279
Speaker 3: even on it. I was never on it actually, and

1117
00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:36,080
Speaker 3: now now I take it every day.

1118
00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:37,960
Speaker 2: And something I would just tell you is, you know,

1119
00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:41,040
Speaker 2: the United States government will never say that it was

1120
00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:44,799
Speaker 2: medicinal if it hadn't been, you know, and so and

1121
00:44:44,840 --> 00:44:48,680
Speaker 2: so for a natural herb to be a medicinal, you know,

1122
00:44:48,840 --> 00:44:50,640
Speaker 2: and and and for it to for it to be

1123
00:44:50,920 --> 00:44:53,680
Speaker 2: legal in the in the thirties when when this was

1124
00:44:53,719 --> 00:44:56,600
Speaker 2: around this this this company here is Zippo, and then

1125
00:44:56,800 --> 00:44:59,040
Speaker 2: for it to go over to be an illegal and

1126
00:44:59,080 --> 00:45:02,440
Speaker 2: then the pharmaceutical came in and then made that, you know,

1127
00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:06,040
Speaker 2: legal until it became an epidemic. And it's now the

1128
00:45:06,120 --> 00:45:09,400
Speaker 2: leading cause of white male you know, is opioids, you know.

1129
00:45:09,480 --> 00:45:11,160
Speaker 2: And so when you start to think of these things

1130
00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:15,440
Speaker 2: and and and and for pain management and for lubrication

1131
00:45:15,560 --> 00:45:18,279
Speaker 2: of your indocannabinoid system, which is a system that you know,

1132
00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:21,040
Speaker 2: as you're you know, you know, you've already obviously looked into,

1133
00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:23,600
Speaker 2: you know, you know, to to kind of get into

1134
00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:25,840
Speaker 2: that that that note like, you know, you'll start to

1135
00:45:25,880 --> 00:45:28,759
Speaker 2: realize that you know this plant. And don't get me wrong,

1136
00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:30,879
Speaker 2: I don't like smoke weed all day. It's not something

1137
00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:33,000
Speaker 2: I can do. I've got there's smoke weed every day.

1138
00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:35,560
Speaker 4: By no means yeah, no every day.

1139
00:45:35,640 --> 00:45:38,040
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, no, I would smoke cigars all day.

1140
00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:44,000
Speaker 5: I mean it's honestly earlier this, Yeah, it would have

1141
00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:44,319
Speaker 5: been great.

1142
00:45:44,520 --> 00:45:47,560
Speaker 7: There's a parallel that runs between this and that. Like

1143
00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:49,880
Speaker 7: just like with the zippos, we were talking about that

1144
00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:53,160
Speaker 7: everybody chooses their own thing and that we're not non judgmental.

1145
00:45:53,480 --> 00:45:55,840
Speaker 7: It's the same thing with this, where it's like I

1146
00:45:55,880 --> 00:45:57,560
Speaker 7: have people give me some you know, they give you

1147
00:45:57,560 --> 00:46:00,120
Speaker 7: ship about cigars or something like that or yeah, and

1148
00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:03,360
Speaker 7: you're just it's those things that like, yeah, could I quantify?

1149
00:46:03,400 --> 00:46:04,560
Speaker 7: Am I gonna do it my whole life? Am I

1150
00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:06,719
Speaker 7: going to be smoking like a morning cigar when I'm

1151
00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:07,600
Speaker 7: you know, sixty?

1152
00:46:07,719 --> 00:46:08,880
Speaker 6: Maybe it's my favorite.

1153
00:46:09,440 --> 00:46:11,120
Speaker 3: There's nothing better than a couple of coffee and a

1154
00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:12,919
Speaker 3: cigar in your morning cigar.

1155
00:46:15,239 --> 00:46:17,080
Speaker 5: I gotta wait till the kids are going and I'm like,

1156
00:46:17,160 --> 00:46:18,040
Speaker 5: you know, oh, it's.

1157
00:46:17,880 --> 00:46:20,680
Speaker 3: It's when I'm on vacation or something, or if I'm

1158
00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:23,680
Speaker 3: going golfing, I'm like starting my cigar before the round.

1159
00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:24,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know what I mean.

1160
00:46:24,640 --> 00:46:27,399
Speaker 3: It's not even a.

1161
00:46:26,320 --> 00:46:28,520
Speaker 6: Connecticut like a Connecticut leaf in the morning, like a

1162
00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:29,120
Speaker 6: light one.

1163
00:46:29,040 --> 00:46:31,359
Speaker 4: I like a Dominican, you know.

1164
00:46:31,600 --> 00:46:33,560
Speaker 3: And what my favorite, to be honest with you is

1165
00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:37,719
Speaker 3: I buy from a website called CI Cigar International, and uh,

1166
00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:39,120
Speaker 3: I get a lot of the knockoffs.

1167
00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:40,800
Speaker 6: Yeah, they're just for the seconds.

1168
00:46:40,960 --> 00:46:41,799
Speaker 5: Give the seconds to.

1169
00:46:41,800 --> 00:46:44,520
Speaker 3: The knockoffs, to me are the best because it's a

1170
00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:48,759
Speaker 3: great quality, fucking place cigar that's for the for a

1171
00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:49,880
Speaker 3: fraction of the price.

1172
00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:52,400
Speaker 5: And don't get me wrong, I'll splurge and get some

1173
00:46:52,440 --> 00:46:53,520
Speaker 5: good ones here and there.

1174
00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:56,160
Speaker 3: But to me, the knock offs in the seconds like

1175
00:46:56,280 --> 00:46:58,279
Speaker 3: they mess up on a bread, like the role is

1176
00:46:58,320 --> 00:47:00,560
Speaker 3: not perfect for the company, so they backing them off

1177
00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:02,880
Speaker 3: like Olivia, like a break red like Olivia.

1178
00:47:03,280 --> 00:47:04,359
Speaker 5: I'm like, they're selling them.

1179
00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:06,279
Speaker 3: There's a special that happens, and I'm like, yes, I'll

1180
00:47:06,280 --> 00:47:07,400
Speaker 3: buy a pack of thirty and.

1181
00:47:07,400 --> 00:47:09,160
Speaker 6: Everybody wins because then they get rid of there. They

1182
00:47:09,160 --> 00:47:09,440
Speaker 6: get there.

1183
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:13,239
Speaker 2: You guys have had a crease in its selling the

1184
00:47:13,239 --> 00:47:14,640
Speaker 2: ear smoking around in a note.

1185
00:47:14,719 --> 00:47:16,720
Speaker 4: Oh my god, this is a not You don't notice.

1186
00:47:16,719 --> 00:47:18,400
Speaker 5: You're sitting there going, what's wrong with this cigar?

1187
00:47:18,600 --> 00:47:20,239
Speaker 7: Yeah, they don't even Yeah, it doesn't usually get a

1188
00:47:20,239 --> 00:47:22,360
Speaker 7: wrapper though, and there's something about taking that wrapper.

1189
00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:24,400
Speaker 3: I'll say, you know what, though, I'm to the point

1190
00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:26,960
Speaker 3: now that I don't care about the rapper, you know

1191
00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:29,320
Speaker 3: what I mean, Like, I don't care about it because

1192
00:47:29,760 --> 00:47:32,160
Speaker 3: when I used to go, like to the Bahamas, and

1193
00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:34,160
Speaker 3: I'm always bringing a back up my favorites A number

1194
00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:36,719
Speaker 3: two money Crystal, that's my hands down number one favorite, right,

1195
00:47:36,800 --> 00:47:39,239
Speaker 3: so like what's your favorite cigard Jo Monty Crystal number two.

1196
00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:42,000
Speaker 3: And when I'm across the ponds and across where I

1197
00:47:42,040 --> 00:47:43,880
Speaker 3: can get them, when I bring them back, I have

1198
00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:46,400
Speaker 3: to take the sleeve off anyways, and I put that

1199
00:47:46,440 --> 00:47:49,600
Speaker 3: in my wife's tampon bag or whatever, and then I

1200
00:47:49,680 --> 00:47:51,799
Speaker 3: keep the guards over here because that's the only way

1201
00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:54,080
Speaker 3: you can tell if they're that brand, you know what

1202
00:47:54,120 --> 00:47:56,120
Speaker 3: I mean, That's how you can tell they're legal. So

1203
00:47:56,200 --> 00:47:57,719
Speaker 3: my point is I just been like I don't care

1204
00:47:57,719 --> 00:47:59,759
Speaker 3: about them no more. You know, it's not a but

1205
00:48:00,640 --> 00:48:02,200
Speaker 3: as I say that, when you go to the cigar

1206
00:48:02,280 --> 00:48:04,359
Speaker 3: shop and you're hanging out, you know, you're sitting there

1207
00:48:04,360 --> 00:48:06,400
Speaker 3: smoking until it comes down to it, and it's.

1208
00:48:06,280 --> 00:48:07,839
Speaker 7: And I think with I do have you know there's

1209
00:48:07,840 --> 00:48:10,280
Speaker 7: people I know that that you know CBD and TC

1210
00:48:10,480 --> 00:48:14,080
Speaker 7: and whatever. But there's again a lot of parallels with

1211
00:48:14,080 --> 00:48:15,839
Speaker 7: with cigars as well as like for me, it's more

1212
00:48:15,920 --> 00:48:18,680
Speaker 7: the ritual. It's like the meditative, Like it's not even

1213
00:48:18,680 --> 00:48:21,719
Speaker 7: the cigar. It's like the ambiance of just like you're

1214
00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:23,800
Speaker 7: decompressing your you're breathing.

1215
00:48:23,960 --> 00:48:25,560
Speaker 4: That's that's cannabis in a nutshell.

1216
00:48:25,640 --> 00:48:27,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what I mean, Like you and I

1217
00:48:27,080 --> 00:48:29,640
Speaker 2: know what you're feeling because you know, I I've smoked

1218
00:48:29,760 --> 00:48:32,759
Speaker 2: both you know, cigars, cigarettes, and and I'm a big

1219
00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:34,680
Speaker 2: fan of tobacco. It's probably one of It's what killed

1220
00:48:34,719 --> 00:48:37,520
Speaker 2: my my father and and and I and it's probably

1221
00:48:37,560 --> 00:48:38,360
Speaker 2: my biggest addiction.

1222
00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:40,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, you're not perfect what you like.

1223
00:48:40,640 --> 00:48:43,439
Speaker 2: I'm just I'm just I haven't smoked since April first, though,

1224
00:48:43,719 --> 00:48:45,560
Speaker 2: any tobacco, So it's been.

1225
00:48:45,440 --> 00:48:48,080
Speaker 4: A really Yeah that's good. That's funny.

1226
00:48:48,080 --> 00:48:49,200
Speaker 3: I thought you were smoking a Sunday and you just

1227
00:48:49,239 --> 00:48:49,879
Speaker 3: went outside of spit.

1228
00:48:49,960 --> 00:48:51,840
Speaker 4: I thought you're outside of smoke. No, no, no, no, I

1229
00:48:51,880 --> 00:48:52,799
Speaker 4: haven't smoked it, not once.

1230
00:48:53,400 --> 00:48:53,600
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1231
00:48:54,280 --> 00:48:56,879
Speaker 4: Nice yeah yeah yeah yeah.

1232
00:48:58,160 --> 00:49:00,880
Speaker 2: But with that being said, though, but I know that

1233
00:49:00,960 --> 00:49:03,600
Speaker 2: ritual you're talking about, Yeah, because even like smoking in

1234
00:49:03,640 --> 00:49:05,200
Speaker 2: the morning, you know that that was one of my

1235
00:49:05,239 --> 00:49:07,920
Speaker 2: favorite things. I'd wake straight up, get a cup of coffee,

1236
00:49:08,239 --> 00:49:10,520
Speaker 2: sit down, and it's a peaceful moment to myself.

1237
00:49:10,600 --> 00:49:11,920
Speaker 6: And we don't get many of those. It's like in

1238
00:49:12,080 --> 00:49:12,879
Speaker 6: today's day and age.

1239
00:49:12,880 --> 00:49:15,000
Speaker 7: It's like with all And I don't want to sound

1240
00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:17,319
Speaker 7: like a you know, like that guy, but it's like

1241
00:49:17,680 --> 00:49:19,040
Speaker 7: to have something again.

1242
00:49:19,160 --> 00:49:21,800
Speaker 6: It's like you have a lighter part of this ritual.

1243
00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:22,960

1251
00:49:33,239 --> 00:49:36,360
Speaker 3: a cigar with anybody, Mark, dead or alive.

1252
00:49:36,560 --> 00:49:37,479
