In this episode we discuss how fatigue can affect your passion for the hobby and whether you continue in it all! The different types of fatigue, where this comes from and how to overcome it. Supporting your friends in the hobby, and those that give it everything.

In this episode, we discuss a question posed by one of our listeners regarding portraying nations other than that of your home nation. What are the  triggers and motivations, what do your family think? What do we think about other nations reenacting our own country? Should you always reenact your home country?

We chat to UK Reenactor Scott Allen on the eve of the 77th anniversary of Operation Overlord, D-Day. Since it remains almost impossible for many reenactors to make the annual pilgrimage, we discuss the importance of D-Day in reenacting.

In a rather deep episode, we get into the importance of wider research. We look deeper into the meaning of the hobby for ourselves, and how our outlook on research and education in the hobby has developed over the last few years.

IN this episode we have a good old waffle about our week, new kit purchases, tailoring dress uniforms and much more!
