Sheffield Gaming Podcast #48

This month's podcast was originally supposed to be a long interview with Jim, the owner and founder of a Sheffield gaming institution: Patriot Games. Sadly, due to a technical issue, we lost that bit of the podcast. It was a really good bit too.

Sorry. But it's not all bad news!

Fortunately, a good chunk of the podcast did record perfectly, so here's that.

In this episode, we discuss:

• Cosy games to snuggle up with over the winter.
• All of the Sheffield gaming events this September, and upcoming events in October.
• Taking part in Treehouse Boardgame Cafe's Megagame.
• And lots more!

Sheffield Gaming Podcast #48

We tried to think of a snappy title for this podcast, but honestly it was too difficult to explain. This podcast talks about all the things we love about our gaming hobbies, but have had so much trouble explaining them to outsiders!

In this episode, we discuss:

• The Treehouse Boardgame Cafe 5th Birthday celebrations.
• The Sheffield Showcase
• Our phantom mum's telling us off for playing videogames when it's sunny
• And lots more!
