  • Always a good listen

    After an almost 60 year hiatus, I came back to trying to build scale models when facing retirement. I stumbled on this podcast and they have provided hours of enjoyment and a great learning experience as an old/new builder. They also have given encouragement and support that I needed in some dark spots when my physical limitations almost got the best of me. I hope I can be around for their next 75.

  • Terrific episode guys. PaxCon was the best 'local' show I've been to. Better run than Nats. I can easily see it becoming a major event every year (if you hold it every year). Keep up the great work!
