Episode 198: Pete The Wargamer (Youtuber)

This episode I have a second chat with Pete The Wargamer. Pete is probably my favorite YouTube video content producer, I just love his style, his method, and his content in general. Plus he is a fun and interesting guy to boot. We talked back in ep 31 so if you want a bit more of an introduction to him and his channel then you can go and listen to that first. In this episode we delve a bit deeper into his craft, his evolution, and peripheral bonuses that have come his way, plus also a chin wag about a great many other things.

Episode 169: Jens (Tabletop Generals Youtube Channel)

This episode I speak to Jens of Tabletop Generals. Tabletop Generals is a YouTube channel which is charting the course of World War 2 from very beginning to very end via bat reps and hobby content. It was a pleasure speaking to Jens and I had fun reliving my silly German sayings, along with some very deep conversation about the Waffen SS from his German point of view. I need to mention it here in the intro and I dont want it to potentially offend anyone, so if you dont want to hear about our opinions on man’s potential to do not very nice things to others then this might be a show to miss. It is my opinion that anyone is capable of doing anything, either amazing or terrible, depending on the circumstances and situation. I am not condoning war crime, or any crime of any sort, or celebrating it, I dont even think anything we talk about is controversial in anyway, but I just thought I’d mention it here. It is my own and Jen’s unqualified opinions on it at this point in time…Whew! I made that seem a lot more serious than what it is, but there you go.

Episode 168: Restless Kaiser (Modelling for Advantage)

This episode I speak to Mr Restless Kaiser of Modelling for Advantage. Modeling for Advantage is a Youtube Channel putting together battle reports for various games along with other content for our viewing pleasure from a number of different people. I enjoy the level of banter and hijiinx that goes on during their games, I always have a chuckle watching it and I’d heartily recommend you having a look see.

Episode 165: Mat Hart (Steamforged Games & Resident Evil 3 KS)

This episode I speak to Mat Hart the co founder of Steam Forged Games, we were very humbled when Steamforged decided to attend the recent PATMOCON event, our online convention and that was my first experience of talking to anyone from there. I have really enjoyed every conversation I have had with Mat he comes across as an interesting and straight forward chap, with a great insight into the industry and how he puts together games.

Episode 164: Paul Hicks (Baron's War KS)

This episode I speak to Mr Paul Hicks an outstanding sculptor of miniatures. We have a general chat about him and what he has been up to since we last spoke on episode 90, and also both the previous and upcoming Baron’s War kickstarter campaigns he is working on with Andy Hobday of Footsore Miniatures. I always enjoy talking to Paul, traditional sculpting seems to be going by the wayside in favor of Z brush and electronic sculpting but I for one would hate the art and the discipline to die out, it was a shame Salute was cancelled this year as Paul was going to be there with PATM doing a number of sculpt along classes, next year we hope it will become a reality.

Episode 162: Matt M - Bedroom Battlefields

This episode I talk to Matthew McLean of Bedroom Battlefields, a hobby blog chronicling an average Joe’s return to the hobby after the seemingly natural nerd hiatus from leaving school to late twenty something. I find Matthew to be a very interesting individual who doesnt toot his own horn enough. The amount of interesting things he has done quickly stacks up and we didn’t get a chance to talk about a number of them, we need a subsequent chat I think.
