Coming to you from the JRE Tobacco Aladino Studios, Nick is joined by Noah Zeleznik to do a mid-year celebrity death check in. We recap those we lost in the first six months of 2026 and review our predictions made at the end of 2025. Did we predict any correctly? Do we stand by our predictions for the back half of the year?

All this while smoking some Aging Room cigars!

Find out what we've been watching lately in the Villiger Cigars Entertainment Report.

And you've waited patiently and it's finally here... the Lemonade-O-Meter! Nick gives the first official score to the Two Guys Lemonade. How does it score up? What do you think of the official Lemonade-O-Meter? Is it good to go or too complicated?
