About This Podcast

Sunday Afternoon Smokes is hosted by Chris Strother, creator of a long-form conversation series highlighting the people and businesses shaping life in the Upstate of South Carolina. Each episode is an unhurried, guided conversation with entrepreneurs, creators, business professionals, and community voices — hosted at the table, not the podium. Cigars are often part of the setting, but never the requirement. These conversations explore work, personal stories, faith, challenges, and the ideas behind what people are building across the Upstate. Settle in, slow down, and enjoy the conversation.
