Podcasts You Might Enjoy

Hey kids,

I end up listening to a lot of podcasts at work, as well as audiobooks, to better pass the time.  Here's a rundown of three that I particularly enjoy, and that you might as well:

Brohammer is a local podcast dealing with Warhammer Fantasy.  It's well done, and humorous, dealing with everything from book reviews to tactics. 

Pointhammered is a hilarious podcast recorded up in Wisconsin also dealing with Warhammer Fantasy.  Their thoughts on painting and play are pretty valuable, and you can tell they're having a great time recording. 

The D6 Generation is a general gaming podcast that is a great time to listen to, and offers a ridiculous amount of content.  It's hooked me up with a few great board games over the years!

Brohammer Episode 6 is out!

Check out the new episode of the Brohammer podcast, released yesterday!  It's got some Brawler Bash and Grail Quest tournament action, and is a great time!

From their website:

Brohammer ep005 "Prison Tatoos" is here!

Kevin, Tom and I are again joined by Canadian phenom Andrew Weber.

We start the show off in our usual fashion by describing what we have brought to the table to slake our thirsts.  After that is a Warhammer's Real Men of Genius short (repeat in case you have missed them so far AND to hype our newest contest!)

We talk about what we have been doing recently hobby related...naturally this leads to the term "prison tats" being bandied about like its awesomesauce.  Another Warhammer's Real Men of Genius short (repeat in case you have missed them so far AND to hype our newest contest!)

Then the meat:  Joe and Chuck from the WAAAGHCAST podcast interview me on my thoughts about 8th and life in general, well they didn't really ask me about life in general, but I let them know my thoughts on it anyways!  (this was taped in Dec and aired on episode 50 of WAAAGHCAST)

Direct download site:  http://www.cyberears.com/podcasts/podcast_5800.xml

**Note: Due to a technical issue I didn't catch early enough, the audio quality suffers (most specifically Tom's volume level).  It is still good, but if this is your first show, know that it is usually better :>

Brohammer presents "Warhammer's, Real Men of Genius" Monster double length holiday special episode.  :)

We start this episode off with some chat about what kind of beer we are drinking (Kevin's homebrew for us-Tom's got an import) and move right into what we have been doing in the hobby since last we met.

WARHAMMER"S REAL MEN of GENIUS! At the 20:37 mark we introduce our new signature digital short.  This will be a continuing spot with related contests in the future and a new "salute" every episode!

After the break we come back with coverage of Tom's recent 3 game local tourney up in IL.  Then I discuss the NC Masters tourney and the results.
A short rules section takes us out.

Happy Holidays!

Brohammer Podcast: Episode One!

Any time that I can let people know about an awesome new podcast, plug a friend's work, and use a picture of hammer pants, life is good.  Brohammer, a product of North Carolina locals Erik and Kevin Lindley, released its first episode the other day. 

"But where can I get a piece of this hotness?", you ask.  Right here:  http://www.megaupload.com/?d=I7Z5900S.  Download that sucker now and have a listen!  Let me know what you think.  Then visit their blog at:  http://brohammercast.blogspot.com/.

Brohammer! and ETC Comp REquirements

I'd like to take a moment to point out an up and coming podcast in development.  Brohammer is being made by two locals, Erik and Kevin, who are great guys and have a great amount of experience in the hobby.  Plus, they're a lot of fun and I think they'll do a good job.  So go follow them at:  http://brohammercast.blogspot.com/!

After the strong feelings that composition ideas generated here and elsewhere, I wanted to put a copy of the ETC restrictions up here.  These guys play a lot (and for national pride), so I was very interested to see what they would do.  The restrictions and changes are pretty heavy.  I'll need some time to mull it over.
