Conversations From The Cigar Box

Podcasts exploring business, culture, faith, and community across the

Upstate of South Carolina — hosted by Chris Strother.

Sunday Afternoon Smokes

A long-form conversation podcast hosted by Chris Strother, highlighting the people, businesses, and stories shaping life across Upstate South Carolina.

Each episode is an unhurried conversation with entrepreneurs, creators, business owners, craftsmen, and community voices — hosted at the table, not the podium.

Recorded inside the private Sunday Afternoon Smokes Lounge, the show is built around atmosphere, authenticity, and genuine human connection.

Cigars may be part of the setting, but never the requirement.

Between Sundays

A short, midweek, solo reflection. No guests. No outline. No pressure.

Hosted by Chris Strother, it’s a quieter space for thoughts that don’t belong in a hosted conversation — ideas still forming, observations worth naming, and moments from ordinary life that invite a little attention. Recorded between Sundays.
