Well, it happened as advertised - we recorded an episode and then the Season Three annoucement came at 8am the next morning!  Please be patient with our speculation - some of which is still accurate - and our confidence levels! Darcy was 5% certain!  Now he can be 100% certain!

We also talk to Dave Sutton regarding his Summer Bash win, including how best to leverage Slann and the fouling meta that exists in Alberta. 

In any case, we hope you give it all a listen - and if you have any further tips regarding how best to teach kids to paint, drop us a line! 

Ah, what better way is there to enjoy the summer than to toss random Halfling Hopefuls through the warm, breezy air and to hear their bones crinkle as they hit the ground!

This month, there is a LOT of stunty talk, but also a catch up with recent tournament results! The Golden Tentacle, the Tacoma Open, the Golden Sausage... all need to be dissected! This includes special interviews with the Renegade Halfling Mafia, Dan and Damion, as well as a check in with Cale Lemay (aka The Best Canadian) and Justin Gatner!

Let us lay out our picnic basket so that you can all enjoy a little sausage and, of course, stunty talk!

Well, we have a jam packed episode that contains lots of content for you! We address some of the rumours with our best Ilya Bryzgalov impression, "It's only game, why you heff to be mad?"

We then make Connor's dream come true with SO. MANY. UNPOPULAR. OPINIONS!

Afterwards, we talk about Pow Town along with four interviews - including with Ken Wright, Rory Henry, and Mike Barker. 

Finally, we cast our gaze to the summer as we set you up for a date with Pippen McSquee (aka Justin Gatner) and his Golden Sausage.

Tuck into this double-long episode and enjoy the goodness!

As of the recording, we are FIVE days away from the biggest tournament on the Great Plains Grand Prix circuit. The rosters have been submitted and are now revealed - and you don't even have to click through every single one, because we talk all about them in the next hour! So, if you are planning to attend, you might be able to glean a few strategic ideas from our conversation - and if you are not coming, maybe it will give you a few roster builds for your next 1.2 Million build tournament!

This episode, we take our skeleton crew and try and track down some rumours that we found on the internet... is it misinformation from Russian bots, or reliable insider infromation?!  Only you - and time - will be the judges in this case!

Secondly, Barry reveals an expanded number of prizes to support the "Road to PowTown" painting challenge.

Then, we take a good look at the Alberta Classic and try and figure out a way in which Dave doesn't end up Champion.

Finally - we get you prepped for PowTown. What can you expect? Where can you eat? How many people are coming?!?! 

Are you excited yet?!

This month, we chat about all things tournamnets in the Alberta scene, sprinkled in with a little bit of hear-say and wishes. We also announce the Road to PowTown painting challenge (listen for details) and make sure to give some attention to both our Great Plains Open tournament as well as the Blood DIamond Chalice. If you are so inclined, we also talk about the Alberta Classic that is coming up in May as well as PowTown 2025 that is right around the corner. 

We try out a new recording platform while we debrief over the last Cry Fowl Cup, complete with interview with Dave Sutton, the first two time winner of the trophy! With very little news from GW and lots of tournament action on the horizon, we ramble on happily with whatever comes to mind! 

Upcoming tournaments include the Great Plains Open Tournament, the Blood Diamond Chalice, the Alberta Classic, PowTown, and College Exhibition 2025 are all approved on the NAF!

The Cry Fowl Cup is upon us and we are hear to let you know how the coaches spent their 1.2 mil budget in preparation. So many STUNTIES! So many NECROMANTIC!  So many H'THARK! Stick with us and we will guide you through all of the decisions that the coaches have made. 

The guys are all very excited about Tourplay releasing the Secret League teams to be used in competitions. While FUMBBL is all well and good, who would be sad to make, paint, and play an actual Squig team!

We also spend a considerable time recapping the Hammerslam and the role that generative AI could play in future tournaments - as well as an interview with the cahmpion, Chris Cameron! Tournaments on the horizon abound as we also preview the Cry Fowl Cup and others.

Come take a listen to the ramblings!

What a year it has been!  We recap the late Christmas Present that Grandma Wendy sent us in the way of the 2024 Spike! Almanac while we recall some of our favourite memories from the year. We even name the winner of the Great Plains Grand Prix (about the 1:25:00 mark) and look ahead to the next tournament season. 

We chat about some textured paint on miniatures (Mosou Black) as well as offer up some unpopular opinions regarding tackle.

If you are looking for some Alberta-based Blood Bowl reporting, we got it for you here - including an interview with 2/3 of Unnamed Phenomenon - the winning team from Winter Mayhem at about the 1:07:00 mark. 

May the episode find you all in good health and ready to enjoy another year on the pitch!
