An absolute gaming gem
This is a wonderfully warm, funny and insightful pod that’s perfect for gamers of a particular vintage - and great for more recent converts too. Dirk is a terrific host, ably backed up by his partner in crime Judge Blythey and a Grogsquad of guests and occasional contributors. The tone is always gently humorous and warm, with frequent bursts of pure nostalgia mixed in with enthusiasm for newer games. Dirk and Blythey’s knowledge and experience is deep and broad, and the pod has opens my eyes (and wallet) to many games old and new. It richly deserves its reputation of one of the best pods out there. Perhaps one day I’ll get to Grogmeet and buy them both a pint of something suitably warm and… uhh… brown? An absolute gem of a pod!

Now, you may say that because I am from Oop North, I'd be biased towards any kind of blog, podcast or even a dice roll made by a fellow countryman. But, given that I am from 'The Shire'and the chaps at the Grognad Files are from over the border in 'Mordor', I don't think...Read full review »
