Reminisce Some Time w/ Malcolm Baron

After harassing Matt for 6 months, I finally got him to agree to sit down with me and reminisce about our time at Camp Westmont as Counsellors. (Malcolm 2003, 2007-2009 || Matt 2010-2017) 

We take a high level look at Caveman's time at Camp, how he got his job and dig into the trials and tribulations of working for 7 weeks at an American Sleepaway Camp. Matt takes us on a Journey from his first summer a newbie on the waterfront through to being Ross's right hand man, running the programming and eventually taking his place alongside other Westmont Legends on the wall of the Dining Hall as a Colour War General. 

Stories in this episode are based on recollection of historical events as remembered by us, apologies for any factual inaccuracies. 

In this episode, I sit down and reminisce with Sam Durbin AKA Squiddy about the New Zealand Team Fortress Classic (TFC) scene back in the late 90's and early/mid 2000's. We discuss his journey into PC gaming, how he found his love for TFC and the story of how he came to be the owner/custodian of nzfortress.co.nz  

We then dive into some chat about how lessons he learnt then are still relevant to him now, both in corporate New Zealand and as a father, husband and engaged member of his new communities. 

A reminder, that we'd had a couple of beers and were reminiscing about events that happened 20 years ago, so for any factual inaccuracies and misremembered gaming tags and clan names, we ask your forgiveness. 

N.B - Contains discussion on mental health and suicide. 

Contains minimal swearing, you'll be right.
