The boys explore the exciting and expanding world of Warhammer Age of Sigmar!
This one's got it all: vampires, bone dudes, lizard dudes, and every flavor of poorly-dressed elf, from the "You're going to go outside wearing that?" Daughters of Khaine to the "Where are my Birkenstocks?" Lumineth Realmlords.

This week, Ben and Tom take a break from the usual Warhammer shenanigans to discuss their top 5 weirdest storylines (and gimmicks) from professional wrestling.
Note that this was supposed to be a lighthearted episode, but a quick journey down memory lane unearthed some surprisingly DARK and OFFENSIVE characters, gimmicks, and angles from the history of the WWE (formerly WWF). So... listener discretion advised.

Ben and Tom go back to their roots in this one with a list of the top 5 most grimdark persons, places, or things in the 40th-42nd Millenia (depending on where in the 40K universe you consider to be "current state").
As you might expect, there's some pretty messed up things on the lists so viewer discretion advised... more so than normal...
Note for listeners that, due to life events, we may not be able to release new episodes on our usual weekly cadence for a little bit. Thanks for bearing with us!

This week we welcome a High School Literature teacher and gothic fiction expert to discuss 40K lore. Our guest's special focus on Mary Shelley's Frankenstein provides a pretty interesting parallel to several 40K characters, including Fabulous Bill (aka Fabius Bile).
Can Tom's and Ben's passion for 40K win over a non-fan of the setting?
Note for listeners that, due to life events, we may be going on a short stint of biweekly episode releases instead of weekly!

For episode 13 we were thrilled to have Ryan from the Command Point youtube channel and podcast join us for a deep dive into all things Space Marines. Join Ben, Tom, and Ryan for a discussion into what makes these 7-8 foot giants so important as GW's posterboys and why they're the general embodiment for the grimdark existence of humanity in the 41st Millienium.
You can view Ryan's great analysis of the Kill Team hobby with co-host Shane in the youtube channel below. You can also join the Command Point discord to get involved with a great community, with opportunities to find like-minded Kill Team players and engage, whether in-person (as quarantine allows) or via TTS!
