ModelGeek's Podcast

Welcome to The ModelGeeks Podcast.  We are very happy and privileged to have Sean King from Primed Model Works YouTube Channel and TJ Haller from the Plastic Posse Podcast join us as guest hosts for EP29.  In this episode we do a little recap of the Old Dominion Open (ODO) held by IMPS Richmond.  In our main topic we scratch the surface of scale modeling benefits as it relates to both stress and mental health.    
 
Of course we’ll also give a run-down of what’s new out there in kits, aftermarket, upcoming shows, and other news around the hobby.

 We would like to thank all the listeners for the support you have given the show over the past year now. We hope to see you out and about as we hit some of the shows, If you can't make it to the shows then you can still interact with us through social media, Facebook, Instagram, and email.
We also want to thank each of our sponsors for their support. We are very lucky to have their support. When you have the time, pay a visit to their web sites, and have a look at their fine products.

Welcome to Episode 028 of the ModelGeeks Podcast.  In this episode we’re going to discuss hanging out with your modeling buddies and building away from the comfort of your bench…taking the hobby on the road! Do you have a group of friends who build? If so, make a plan to get together, do some model building, tell some tall tales, have a drink or two, and enjoy some camaraderie. 
 
 Of course we’ll also give a run-down of what’s new out there in kits, aftermarket, upcoming shows, and other news around the hobby.

 We would like to thank all the listeners for the support you have given the show over the past year now. We hope to see you out and about as we hit some of the shows, starting tomorrow (Feb 26th) down in Richmond, VA at the IPMS Richmond Old Dominion Open model show and contest. See you there! If you can't make it to the shows then you can still interact with us through social media, Facebook, Instagram, and email.
