I remember my dad would only smoke a cigar once a year and that was when the carnival would come to town and he would ding the bell on the strength game with the hammer. The prize was a cigar. I was always proud of him for winning that cigar.

The best explanation as to why some people smoke cigars.

Why do you like cigars? Steve: "I ain't eat no cake". 😊

Cigarettes and alcohol addiction actually destroyed my life. I could remember several years ago after divorce with my wife which brought me into my disastrous journey on Alcohol and cigarettes. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Got diagnosed with cptsd. Not until a friend recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Much respect to mother nature the great magic shrooms.

He look like an uncle you want to hang out with

Them: “why do you smoke cigars Steve?” Steve: “sum gotta give”

My dad smoked cigars for 45 years .. and he loved them ! And the only place he didn’t smoke them was in the house . But while he was driving .. or sitting outside on a summer afternoon … he loved them !!!!!!! Miss you pop !!!!! God Bless you and Mom !!!

Steve Harvey is and will always be a Top G

cigars are “enjoyed” not just “smoked”

I've only been smoking cigars for just under two years. I see a lot of people saying how unhealthy they are and while you can't argue the facts, (i.e, carcinogens when puffed and throat and mouth cancer.) There is something to be said about the history of cigars and the fact that you are supporting an industry that has been around for centuries. Also please brush, floss, and rinse your mouth after each smoke. It can and will save your mouth and should be known that this is a great preventative measure. A few things to mention to those that don't smoke cigars. - You do not inhale. You draw the smoke into your mouth and then blow out. - There are two different types of cigars. Long Filler and Short Filled cigars. Think of short filled as being the cigars you will see at your gas station like a swisher or black n mild. (Not so good tobacco that is chopped up) whereas Long Filled cigars have 'premium' tobacco that is typically hand-rolled. Though some are machine-made. -Cigars only contain one thing. Tobacco and vegetable glue. That's it. No crazy chemicals like cigarettes. -Nicotine is present but only gets absorbed from the mouth and glands within your mouth. This means that it doesn't get absorbed in your lungs and enter your bloodstream as fast nor do you get that much nicotine at all. Hence being the reason why people can go on for months without thinking about a cigar until a special event or celebration occurs. - Price. It's true that cigars can be pricey, again though you can find cheap premium tobacco if you look good enough. Cigars are pricey for good reason especially something like Davidoff. I urge all of you to look briefly at their process. If you want to look into how a cigar is made lookup, "Davidoff cigar tour" and it should pop right up on youtube. - Cigars grow mold. Another reason that proves cigars don't contain pesticides or chemicals. Cigars grow mold in an overly humid and hot environment. - Aging. Cigars are typically stored in humidors and will age in that 'case' until the end-user is ready to smoke them. I am by no means here to urge anyone to get into smoking cigars. I am, however, sick of the claims some people bring up like the chemical argument or the inhale argument. Please educate yourself appropriately before you get into cigars. I have been smoking for a fairly short time and have had zero issues. Also, I have looked through many different studies before I got into this hobby and I have to say it's a shit show. Both sides are funded by their counterparts and each argument can be argued by cherry-picked studies. Also if you try a cigar and get sick here is what you can do to prevent that from happening. 1. Soda or coffee is my go-to. Pair any cigar with a creamy cup o joe or a dr. pepper or coke of some sort. 2. Be outside or in a well-ventilated area where you can breathe some fresh air. 3. Take it easy. Don't constantly puff. A good rule of thumb is to wait a minute or a good minute and a half before each puff. Pace yourself. Soon you will get into the rhythm and that's what makes cigars so soothing. 4. Make sure you are lighting it properly and be sure to always toast the foot of the cigar completely around the edge. Then puff and light at the same time with long draws. Then blow on the foot and make sure it is evenly lit. If not then touch it up with your torch. 5. Enjoy! Here are some helpful links for those of you that would like to learn more on how to smoke cigars along with how they are made. I apologize for the lengthiness of this. Thanks for reading this far if ya did! How to smoke and the basics of cigar smoking: ukposts.info/have/v-deo/boSml4yOka-prKc.html Davidoff Tour: ukposts.info/have/v-deo/l514epuGrqCXw6c.html I understand many wont read half of this lmao

Did you hear how people automatically started laughing, yet he was being 100% serious. Must be really stressful being surrounded by fake people all the time. Steve keeps it real and he understands that the cigar grounds him to reality

"Cigars are yoga"!! Perfect statement. The epitome of what cigars are about. Its handcrafted art that you experience with all your senses (the sound of the tobacco crackling, the look of the cigar the sheen of the wrapper, the smell of the prelit stick and the nuances of the taste)

“Before you tell what cigars do to your body, let me tell what it do for me” -people laughing in the background 😂

when you try to convince your mom to buy you the new PlayStation - "somethings gotta give, gaming is yoga"

I’ll always be a fan of Steve, very wise & motivational man.

Yes sir... it teaches patience and for one to enjoy the cigar to the fullest, you take your time and appreciate it. Allow time to slow down so you can enjoy not just the cigar, but the moment.

I'm glad he still here with us. Everytime I see him I think of the good old times like the 90s shows. He's like that nostalgic granpa. The last of em.

Everyone needs an outlet or a place of serenity.

This is a wise man right here. Take time to enjoy something nice.

I agree - a man and his cigar A cool thing.

Nothing better than the smell of a good cigar. It relaxes me just to smell them

There is a certain Zen about taking _time_ to savor each step in the process, focusing on all the subtle textures, aromas, and flavors, and...as demonstrated in the video...breathing _intentionally._ I was just discussing this with some coworker friends _yesterday._ Between a full-time job, a part-time side hustle, a wife, kids, and a dog, _me time_ is in short supply. The _ceremony_ of properly enjoying a cigar has a _meditative_ quality that requires me to slow down, be present in the moment, and take time to _appreciate_ the fruits of my labor. For that matter, since I smoke _outside in the fresh air,_ often drinking a big bottle of water over the course of a smoke, this genuinely _is_ a healthy _exercise_ in self care.

Love you Steve, thank you for changing my life for the better !

I still like Arnold’s cigar smoking explanation better.

When he talk , it just hit different.

Hell yeah, pure relaxation

You been a smooth OG since i’ve seen the movie “You Got Served” ‼️💯 even schooling them in ya roll in that movie. Much respect.

I couldn’t agree more Steve! I work hard to have a good life and at times it’s stressful so the little moments with a cigar is my therapy.

My first cigar I smoked the entire thing and i didnt know you weren't supposed to inhale. I threw the hell up

7 minutes are added to my life each time I smoke a cigar.

I love this! Something got to give!

Good for you Steve Harvey. Getting your point across in a cool/relaxed tone. As a cigar smoker myself, I salute you as a public figure, and a true embassador of cigar lovers. Whether you agree with the title or not LoL.....

The people that are screaming "they're bad for you" are the ones who are inactive, sedentary, and live off of processed foods and refined carbohydrates.

I just became a cigar enthusiast. Just right now. Thanks Steve.

I've been smoking cigars for 13 yrs, I'm a retired LEO and my working days were stressful....one doctor told me that stress was more dangerous than smoking a cigar as long I didn't over do it!

Literally saw him exhaling, and thought to myself this man is meditating

No one: Steve Harvey: I will become completely unhinged without my cigars

Years ago when I first watched Steve I didn’t care much for him. Through watching his videos or videos with him featured I have to absolutely admit I admire him he is a humble guy a great human being with morals and values I have to say he won me over and I have nothing but respect for this man and his views on life. Thank you Mr. Harvey for teaching me lessons that I would have overlooked otherwise you’re a good man a teacher of life’s moments a true leader.

My cigar addiction is solely attributed to being able to blow smoke like this man lmfao!!!!! And I love it

Right on man. You deserve it

Are cigars unhealthy? Michael Jordan began smoking cigars in '91, and then started a dynasty...

I get it. I can't start my work day without my coffee and cigarette. It's what gives me the mindset to collect my thoughts before I start the day.

I just started. Love cigars with wine or coffee. Damn. Bless you and enjoy!!

Doctors: smoking will kill you Steve: hold my cigar

I've been smoking fine cigars for many years. It truly is a relaxing experience. From the cutting to the lighting to the smoking of the cigar, it's relaxing.

I'm 42 and I love everything this man has done for maybe 20+ years. Old stand up, comedy species, movies, tv shoes etc etc.

This is real oldschool and I respect it

"I don't do drugs" while explaining what a cigar does to him lmao

Little kids when their uncles give them a puff of their cigars:

Amen, cigars put you in a whole different vibe

I love you Steve, you are a great man, watching your shows, I enjoy smoking cigars too, it's relaxing therapy 😁

That’s literally a story teller telling a beautiful story #kingofcomedy#ripmac

Cigars may be a hobby to some but to me it's part of my lifestyle. I'm so fortunate to work for a company that allows me to smoke my stogies while driving my box truck. A lot of crazy erratic drivers on expressways and the only way for me to relieve my stress levels is spark up a cigar.

“Something gotta give...” That’s right.. The journey through life isn’t always smooth, but a draw from a good cigar is. 💨

Respect, Uncle Steve!

This man is so virtuous and wise

Nothing is more relaxing than a Fine Cigar and a glass of Bourbon

That last "yoga" with a dead serious face gets me every time. Basically saying "get off my back, this my relaxing 'me' time" in a single word

Steve you nailed it. That’s why I smoke cigars. Thanks for sharing

"yoga.. cigar is yoga" - Steve Harvey Absolute legend 💯

I'm smoking a cigar rite now I do almost daily and I noticed when I work all day, I do plumbing and when I get home my wife serves me food we talk for a bit then I talk to my daughter for a bit and I head to the room open the window a bit put the fan on the window to avoid the smell in the room I sit back in my recliner by the window light me up a fine cigar and just get to relax my mind first then my body for a cool 40 -50 mins .....man oh man reflect on life and then half through my cigar I pour a half glass of congac with 3 pieces of ice ..... and sip only .. ohhhhh man .... I understand it.. im only 34 but I get it now for real for real... much respect 🙏

I don’t blame I felt that hit from here it came from the soul! 💯💯

Yessssss! That’s what I do too! Thanks 🙏🏽 ❤

Who can argue with this mans logic. Instead of running around on his girl or getting messed up on drugs and stuff, the man just wants his cigar. Leave the man be in peace ✌️

Thanks for sharing Steve.I've been smoking cigars for decades.They are definitely great for meditation(I normally smoke alone unless I'm at a cigar lounge).My three main reasons are flavor,aroma,and the mediation.People knock me for smoking and I get it,but they really don't know what they're missing lol!!

love this guy

I agree Steve very relaxing. My favorite cigar called "NUB" they are smooth. Excellent cigars.

I love this man's honesty! No bullshit ever! Most people can't handle it!

Amen brother, Amen. 🙌🏽🙌🏽

Steve got a point its not literally yoga but it helps you control, slow things down and appreciate what's all around you and where you're at.

Steve is one of the living legends I wish I could meet before he gone very funny very solid guy cigar.

Tell em sir!! It relaxes me too!! I have the same very reasons why i smoke my cigars. Keepin it real Mr Harvey 💯

Cigars by Steve Harvey....Very nice

Damn, perfect explanation. Me too Steve, somethings gotta give

How to smoke a cigarette while drinking beer brought me here. I think its great that Steve Harvey has moments for himself. His explanation was very romantic and mentioning of his wife.

cigars are very relaxing I have one every other day calms me down

Looks nice, Steve. I'm mostly a pipe smoker but I enjoy an occasional cigar (and an occasional Steve Harvey burger at Big Burger Spot!) you are spot on with this and it is unfortunate that non-smokers get confused and lump in pipe and cigar smokers with cigarette smokers who inhale the smoke. Let me know if you want to try a good corn cob pipe. Scott

Amén brother!

Exactly! Sum'in gotta give...let a man be a man 💯🔥

amen to that my brother, cigar smoking is like yoga

I agree, I smoke them as well just like Steve Harvey, every human being has a vice.

Love yah Steve! 🧡

little getaway for your mind... Amen!!!

Absolutely love this man🤗💯

As someone who smokes cigars also, I approve this message

i love this guy

Steve Harvey the best 💪

Cigars are wonderful and I'm damn glad they are making a come back

Keep on smoking old G, u deserve it all the work u be doing, keep on smoking

I am a capricorn like steve and I love cigars! I never smoked a cigarette in my life❤

He said it in the most gangsta way possible

0:43 when my wife asks me " Why haven't you taken the garbage out"!?

I love cigars too, You are one of my favorite t v personalities,. I wish I could give you a big hug.😂👍💯

Steve Harvey nailed it for me!

I agree Steve. Cigars are the best way to relax.. Way better than Yoga for me..

He’s that sophisticated uncle

Respect ✊

That was a very cool trick at the end. Thanks for showing me that Steve. " Yoga"

Very relaxing!

Steve, get your hands on the new M by Macanudo. It's a coffee infused stick with strong chocolate flavor too. Peace
