While I've been seeing a lot of people making the jump to vaping, and I myself have dabbled in it(shout out to Chreees for the awesome deal he gave me on the MVP2) I have concluded that I'll be sticking to hookah. I've always said I love hookah for the social aspect it seems to convey, a group can have a discussion and even disagree, but with that hose being passed around, even disagreements stay respectful of other parties. What cemented my decision my appearance on my buddies podcast last week. He has come over to my place and hookahed with me before, so he asked me if I would be willing to bring one of my pipes with. So I did, even brought the coil burner for lighting the Nats. We smoked while recording the podcast and had a great time. As soon as we ended the podcast, both of the guys who run the show(the DJ's?) said this was the best one they ever recorded and attributed it to hookah, that it grounded the recording and made it so casual. So while I won't be stopping vaping, I will not be stopping hookah. I will not be selling off my stuff. I'm blessed to be in a position where I can continue to enjoy both.
And for anyone curious, I packed a bowl of melon blend for the show.
