- Great Hobby Talk
This is a very enjoyable podcast about the war game hobby and adjacent topics. There are amazing guests with lots of great insights and opinions. The hosts are super engaging, relatable, and funny (but don’t tell them I said they’re funny). I really do feel like I’m sitting in an armchair next to them.
