Well well well, its a swelled headed Ray, day today.
Myself and BigLee , spoke with Ken Rilley AKA the Yarkshire Gamer while we were at Salute last month, for some reason he asked us both if we'd like to be interviewed on his podcast......of course we both agreed!!!
What followed was nearly 3 hours of mayhem talking about all things wargaming.
Stolen from Lee's blog, I couldn't say it any better....
"Over the course of the recording, we covered a wide range of topics close to our hearts. We talked about our personal journeys into the world of wargaming, how we both fell in love with the hobby, and some of the memorable moments we've experienced along the way. Of course, no conversation between wargamers would be complete without mentioning Postie’s Rejects, the gaming group we're both proud to be part of. We shared some behind-the-scenes stories and insights into what makes our little band of wargaming misfits tick.
We also took some time to reflect on the recent Salute 52 show, sharing our impressions, highlights, and some honest opinions about the event. It was a great opportunity to dive into what makes shows like Salute such an important part of the hobby community — and to have a few good-natured rants along the way!
Ken has now bravely released our ramblings into the wild for the entire wargaming world to hear. If you enjoy hearing about wargaming from the point of view of people who are deeply passionate (and perhaps just a little bit unhinged), this episode is definitely worth your time.
We’d love for you to go and give it a listen — and while you're at it, please leave a thumbs up for Ken! It’s clear he put a tremendous amount of work into bringing this all together, and it really shows. Recording a four-hour epic is no small task, and editing it is an even bigger one. Huge thanks to Ken for inviting us on and for making the whole experience such a fun and memorable one.
You can find the episode on the Yarkshire Gamers Reet Big Wargames Podcast on Podbean or on your favourite podcast platform. Also check out Ken’s Yarkshire Wargamers blog to see his amazing Italian Wars stuff and of course previous episodes of the Podcast. Happy listening!"
I am about halfway through the dialogue. Sounds like a Monday Paint & Chat session.
ReplyDeleteThat's exactly what we said. It turned into 3 chaps talking about wargames, just like our Mobday nights.
DeleteI've just finished it and was laughing throughout.
ReplyDeleteI'm only 45 minutes in so far. Isn't it strange listening to your own voice. It sounds so different to how I hear it?
DeleteWill give this a listen over the weekend and I must admit I am really looking forward to it.
