“A brilliant podcast, that combines warm, light-hearted witty banter with excellent insight into games design and the nature of games playing and social interaction. The icing on the cake for me is the delight of Dirk's dulcet Lanky tones describing the what, where and how of gaming back in the day. It takes me back to my own 70's orange-painted bedroom in Oldham (I did at least have a window) trying to work out how to avoid dying at the hands of an Orc sniper in my mate Alec's homebrewed WW2 D&D game. After perishing for the fifth time at the same point on the road (the hedge is too high to climb, you don't have smoke grenades and your weapon skill isn't high enough to return fire), I did briefly wonder whether a long prison sentence would be a price worth paying for the satisfaction of battering him to death with his own DM screen.

“I seriously have to ration this podcast as its equisitely scripted nostalgia takes a lot of time to craft. If only these guys could go pro and release one a week I would be in heaven.”
