Episode 14: Work In Progress - It’s Elementary Dear Watson, We’re Just Giving it a Bit of a Kick - Sherlock Holmes and Moriaty’s Web Aug 29, 2016

Show notes

In the first of a new Series, Work In Progress looks at a new Kickstarter project and chats with its creative team. Joining us on this episode is Jim Keifer and his daughter Lucy, who will be talking about their Kickstarter for their moving tile, collaborative tabletop game "Sherlock Holmes and Moriarty's Web" We are more than aware that we have three people on this episode. We also have a special guest in the form of the gardener operating the leaf blower in the background of Jim's audio, so there the occasional blast of sound in the background. We edited him out where we could, but he still butted in and gave his opinion on Pandemic. The other thing to note is that part of this episode will potentially send you into some kind of nostalgia based haze and Jim tells us about his history working in the industry. Prepare to either be misty eyed. Or just think whut? It's nothing short of fascinating. Links of Note.

Episode 13: Friends of The Show SCANDAL - Staying In, Making Tea, Not Eating Crisps and Loving Little Dice - Sam Turner Aug 27, 2016

Show notes

Do you remember the film Michael Caine starred with Kevin Spacey in the 70s? Or how about how long the gluten free aisle is in Tesco? If Pandemic did advent Calendars, what would happen? This, plus many other important topics are discussed between Richard and Sam Turner from The Staying In Podcast. We also talk about some boardgames, how Sam recently got involved in his six sided habit and much more. Had a massive amount of fun. Hope you enjoy. We also need to warn you that the last 5 minutes of this show are quite frankly so full of scandal this may well be the last episode we release with a friend of the show.. It was so much fun, anything less than controversial would have been frankly unacceptable.

Episode 10: Friends of the Show - Speaking in Code but not saying the D Word. - Gary Butterfield Aug 06, 2016

Show notes

For our next Friends of the Show Episode, we are joined by fabulous Gary Butterfield who is one half of the Duckfeed.tv network. Along with his co-host Kole Ross, he hosts a number of successful podcasts including the Dark Souls focused Bonfiresidechat, The Retrogame look-back Watch out for Fireballs and the hilarious Abject Suffering. We really appreciate the time Gary gave us and he was great fun to speak with.

For those unfamiliar with his work, please visit the Duckfeed website http://duckfeed.tv/ You can find Gary on Twitter - https://twitter.com/garybuh We even splashed out on some spy related theme music courtesy of http://www.bensound.com/royalty-free-music Which we will probably change for next time now we know how to do it.

Show notes

In our latest Friends of the Show edition, we reach across the pond and have a chat with Jon Gilmour which unearths one of the funniest and interesting stories we've heard about getting into the hobby. We were really pleased he took the time out to talk to us and it's certainly worth a listen. Jon, along with Isaac Vega were responsible for the creation of Dead of Winter, a personal favourite of Richard's. He has been involved in a number of other games which he was happy to talk about as well as telling us what he likes to get to the table. We talk about Kickstarter and the choices in the route to market and finish up with his latest game in progress, the extremely interesting looking Wasteland Express. We answered some questions and general had a bit of fun. Even though Richard does comes across as Captain Fanboy.
