Do an in-depth episode about the imperial guard and imperial tanks land Raiders Lehman Russ’s royal dorm and if you weren’t gonna do any of that, please at least do an episode on banblade
OK, so there was this one guy who left another review that was completely hating on John. Don’t listen to him, John. You’re doing great.
PS: Brad and Chester are also great and so is the entire show overall.
I’ve been dabbling with the idea of “really” getting in to 40K and have been super overwhelmed. This is just what I needed. Fun banter, good insight. All around great. Now I need to final down my legion/chapter!
John and Brad are funny, informative, and very good at explaining the changes that have happened in the lore. Definitely the best 40K podcast I’ve had the opportunity to listen to. Thank you guys for the good work!
Left Spotify, came here. The quality is better. For the emperor
