The Spare Notes Series
The Spare Notes Series is a Bi-Weekly podcast hosted by Matt Tabacco, Kevin Acuff and William Cooper of Cigar-Coop. Started in 2021, the show is based on extra topics and material that didn’t make it into the hosts regular shows. This is a more industry focused show with some very unrelated topics sprinkled in as well. There are no guests, just good company.
The show can be found on YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter LIVE every other Saturday night, as well as after the show everywhere you download your Podcasts under the Smokin Tabacco channel.
