Do you like the jump into the fray, sword swinging, or prefer to sit back and hurl fireballs with wild abandon?   This week Ben and Tom walk through each of the Dungeons and Dragons classes in the current 5th edition with an eye toward underlining which are a blast to play, and which may be a little less fun…   Check us out on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrVDCRWjYTe4LWDFZRNIkhw   Music and sound effects from https://www.zapsplat.com   Artwork by Thorn and Thistle: https://www.instagram.com/thorn.thistle/   Check out Tom's Instagram at: https://www.instagram.com/bonesawminiatures/?hl=en    

Everyone’s favorite hobby store is under fire again!   Is Games Workshop really the bad guy (baddie to our UK friends), or is the gaming community being unfair?

Remember how good it felt when Darth Vader turned on the Emperor? Or how sad you were when Fredo betrayed Michael (Godfather reference ya'all)! Well, professional wrestling has been making use of moments like this for years to create compelling narrative!   In the business (wrestling that is), a "face turn" is when a bad guy goes good, and a "heel turn" is the opposite, a good guy going bad. Join Tom and Ben as they reminisce about some of the best heel and face turns that shocked and delighted audiences and kept the thinly-veiled soap opera that is pro wrestling in business!   Episode 38   Watch us on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrVDCRWjYTe4LWDFZRNIkhw   Music and sound effects from https://www.zapsplat.com    Artwork by Thorn and Thistle: https://www.instagram.com/thorn.thistle/    Check out Tom's Instagram at: https://www.instagram.com/bonesawminiatures/?hl=en

Ben and Tom express their feelings (mostly sad) that beloved YouTube sensation Alfabusa (who recently stopped by for a 3-part interview) will be putting his series on hiatus.   To lighten the mood, the dynamic duo take a quick visit to fun internet shenanigans from over a decade ago, leading to a contentious discussion with an Al Pacino soundboard…   News: 40Cray season 1 will be coming to a close soon, and season 2 may see a rebrand and refocus.

In this very special, first-ever video chat episode, Ben and Tom dive deep into some of the biggest plot holes and cases of general lore tomfoolery in the 40K universe (after a bit of reflection on Warhammer+ now that we have all the details!). With dozens of authors across hundreds of books, there's plenty of inconsistencies and... weirdness... to choose from. Did we hit on your favorite or most frustrating plot hole?
