So come join us, Bradford and Jason, on the porch to enjoy a good bourbon and cigar to figure it out. Picture this: a cozy porch or patio, the sun setting in the distance, and the perfect cigar in hand. That’s our sweet spot, and we want you there with us. Each episode is like a chat with old friends where we dive into everything from the smooth notes of bourbon to the complexities of life’s biggest questions—jobs, politics, history, music, and even the quirkiest of topics like, “Why did we quit using lead paint?” One of us is a brain surgeon—yes, really—and the other brings a mix of sharp intellect, charisma, and unyielding certainty. We’ll let you guess which is which. We’re tackling it all: from the lives of Presidents to overcoming isolation, battling cancer, navigating divorce, and the wild ride of raising adult kids. So, grab a friend, your favorite cigar, and a drink that makes you smile. Join us on the porch for some real talk and a lot of laughs.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-31T08:17:23.165860+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/two-guys-on-a-porch-7048444"},"episode":{"title":"Ep. 38 - Padron, Poker, Jack & Pappy Plus The Entrepreneur Who Invented the Bristol Night Race","slug":"ep-38-padron-poker-jack-pappy-plus-the-entrepreneur-who-invented-the-bristol-night-race","published_at":"2025-11-12T19:30:41+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/two-guys-on-a-porch-7048444/ep-38-padron-poker-jack-pappy-plus-the-entrepreneur-who-invented-the-bristol-night-race","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/two-guys-on-a-porch-7048444","url":"https://jdhc6.podbean.com/e/padron-poker-jack-pappy-plus-the-entrepreneur-who-invented-the-bristol-night-race/","audio_url":"https://mcdn.podbean.com/mf/web/iv273wpjvm9qsrgr/FB725_2E4a_-_bW_-_Episode_36a_-_Podcast_Recording_August_23rdbopad.mp4","summary":"This week, Jason and Bradford welcome their friend Lanny Hester to the porch — a man whose life story spans industries, eras, and adventures. A talented entrepreneur whose ventures have ranged from the medical world to co-owning Bristol Motor Speedway in the late 1970s, Lanny has lived the kind of life you just can’t script. With Padron cigars from The Mission Cigar and Social in hand — a brand known for quiet excellence and uncompromising quality — the guys settle into a blind whiskey tasting between Jack Daniel’s Bonded and Pappy Van Winkle 12-Year. Both are fan favorites on the porch, but this afternoon, it’s about pure taste and value — no labels, no bias. Between sips, Lanny shares stories that sound almost mythical but are entirely true — like the time he found himself in a Las Vegas poker game with Pug Pearson, Amarillo Slim, and Sailor Roberts. And how a bold idea during his time co-owning Bristol led to one of NASCAR’s greatest traditions: the Bristol Night Race. This episode is more than cigars and bourbon — it’s about creativity, risk, and the kind of vision that turns good ideas into legacies. Light up a Padron, pour something bold, and join us for an afternoon of unforgettable storytelling with the man who helped bring the lights to Bristol. #BristolMotorSpeedway #BristolTN #TwoGuysOnAPorch #NASCAR #CaleYarborough #DarrellWaltrip, #AmarilloSlim #PokerLegend #StockCarRacing #Motorsports #NASCARLegends #RacingHistory #Vegas #LasVegas #WorldSeriesOfPoker #WSOP #PokerLegends #PappyVanWinkle #JackDaniels #HighStakesPoker #LegendaryDrivers #StorytellingPodcast #BourbonAndCigars#FranklinTN #FranklinTennessee","meta_description":"This week, Jason and Bradford welcome their friend Lanny Hester to the porch — a man whose life story spans industries, eras, and adventures.
