553: Pipemaker Paul Lucas. The Paper Inside Tobacco Tins.

Our featured interview tonight is with Paul Lucas. Paul is the pipe maker behind the Paw brand of pipes. By looking at his pipes, you would never guess that he's only been making pipes for three years. He started in 2020 during lockdown when he had nothing to do except to make pipes. One year later, he quit his job and became a full time pipe artisan. He makes both freehand and standard shape styles, but even his standard shapes are artsy. At the top of the show, Brian will answer a listener's question about the paper liners that are typically found inside the tins of tobacco.
