Thunderdome Delay

Tuesday, December 23rd, 2008

Many of you are probably wondering where the Thunderdome video is. The answer? its not ready yet for two reasons.

The first is that real life work is really busy at this time of year. The christmas rush takes alot of my energy. I have been working long days lately and what little time left is spent with my family and other real life things.

The other reason, Podhammer takes alot of my time and energy I spend alot of time working on the show, website, forums etc. I have burned out a little and I really need to take a break. Its like painting an army if you force yourself you end up not enjoying it, and then it never gets done.

Podhammer is a passion of mine but it is a hobby and sometimes we all need to break from our hobbies so that we enjoy them more.

So don’t panic! Podhammer is not going anywhere, I am not throwing it away. I just need a break for a little while and I will return refreshed and ready to do the show in early january. Thunderdome will be released just not straight away.

I apologise for the inconveniance and would like to wish everyone out there that has supported the show over the year a safe and merry Xmas and a fantastic 2009

Thursday, November 20th, 2008

If you have listened to episode 35 you would have heard me mention our newest venture, the Wargamer Radio Network(WRN)

The Wargamer Radio Network(WRN) is the home of the worlds premier Wargaming Podcasts.

Since late 2007 the world of wargaming podcasts has continued to grow, we decided to create a place where only the best podcasts can be found.

If you listen to a podcast from the WRN you know it will focus on the following things

1. Experienced Hosts and guests – When someone on a WRN podcasts gives an opinion it comes from an experience in that game system. WRN hosts and guest are regulars gamers just like you who love the hobby.

2. Quality Audio. – WRN podcasts strive to provide the very best audio quality available. None of the WRN podcasts are recorded in flashy radio studios but all of the Podcast creators have invested considerable time and money into equipment and continue to do so.

3. Consistent Content. – Some WRN shows are weekly, some are bi-weekly. Whatever the schedule you can count on regular updates from any show in the WRN.

4. Bonus content. – All WRN podcasts are committed to provding extra material outside of the main episode structure. From premium members only forums, to contests or extra content from special events. WRN podcasts give more than the average podcast.
