Ah, guys, thanks so much for having us on! It was an absolute blast, and we had such a good time.. we even got emotional! ❤ You'll have to get over to Ireland and do your best accents to see if you can fit in. 😂
It was great to see you guys on this podcast! Also, congratulations on the addition to your family! Hope you both enjoyed your holiday here in the States. I also hope that you were able to go target shooting with the TUP boys and they were not just teasing you and us about it.
There's nothing better than getting a HUGE whiteboard and writing all your tasks on it. And then zealously sticking to that list. You'll find you end up with more time left over if you become blinkered except for the immediate task. The things that appear to be screaming for attention are often just our perception of what's important but are enemies of efficiency and can wait a few hours until you've smashed the current tasks.
Hey guys. I'm a regular listener. I have to say - this has been my favorite episode to date. It was great to see @Broadsword Wargaming - love those guys. Great conversations, and I can't tell you how many times I laughed. Hope to see them join you guys again in the future or vise vs. Keep up the great work!
Scott’s description of the troubles of being a human adult at 1:37:15 really spoke to me. Procrastination and issues focusing and prioritising I feel are so much harder in the modern world. You aren’t alone in your struggles guys!
Good on you for hosting @Broadsword Wargaming! I've always a blast watching Ollie & Clara and I applaud their efforts to make a difference in our nerdy and sweaty space. Still waiting for an episode with @Kirioth though! PS; Never took Clara for an Iron Warriors fan. Good for her to have a proper taste in Heresy!
Scott needs to say everything GW is wonderful, so he can get time off for good behavior from his exile. Say things like "I don't mind new models always being overpowered!" and "Man these Word Bearers are totally believable as characters, I mean, you sometimes want to moustache twirl!".
This episode contains every one of my favorite content creators for miniature painting and it was exactly the amazing collaboration I was hoping for. Thank you!!
This is a crazy good episode. Maybe my favorite ever. Scott is such a great interviewer and has a mix of well prepared questions and on the fly banter. This got deep and I really enjoyed it. Bring on more industry people and dig deep! This was awesome!
loved the perspective from Ollie and Clara. diving deeper into the mental aspect of hobby and life tasks was greatly appreciated and thank you for getting vulnerable and posting it for internet strangers. incredibly enjoyable episode
1:38:52 is the exact time that the mountain dew kicks in for Ollie (watch foot for proof) . Great show really interesting to hear about what goes into building a store.
So. I didn’t realize that I had caught up on the backlog of vids that I’ve missed last week. I was going into withdrawals. Excellent video. Great guests! Love me some “Brodesode.” Now. To wait two more weeks.
This was my first time watching the show and have to say it was excellent! I love Olly and Ciara and wish them the best! Watching from Cork so hope to get to store someday!
Fantastic episode, so funny. Ollie/Ciara are such a great couple and they just are so open and honest about what's going on about them. I think this openness leads to a great interview as Scott found a lot in common?, talking helps as we realise that other people are going through the same day to day problems and its good to share. And you guys should come to Ireland.
For the paint scheme where you go back through. A way to think about it, base coats to battle ready and then go back and add the details. I paint like that, you spend time making each one unique when you have time.
Amazing episod! I'm a massive fan of Kings of War and work hard to get it stocked in stores here in Brissy, Au. I've started putting some $$$ into this project, but it's such an uphill slog pursuading stores to look outside of GW. GW really dominate the market well
The discounting on their own site thing happened in the RC hobby a while ago, and I think a ton of stores ended up refusing to sell such and such brand anymore until they instituted a minimum online price that they (and other online retailers) couldn't go below so that all the hobby shops wouldn't die off. I think it worked because of what you're saying, most of their sales were thru local shops and not online.
To that end I like things that are completed top to bottom clean precise through and through assembly to a amalgamated structure which gives it a very clean look and a very promising look and a very realistic look if that makes any sense than to leave some patches black to think shadow, nope!😂
So, I run the POkemon Club at my LGS, and I have kids that are straight up pros now. Once they learned the real rules, all they do is build standard legal decks. It's amazing. Our best player is ranked 374 (top 400) on the east coast.)
The end of the preamble ramble is the exact reason I tell people not to turn their hobbies into a business. Very few people can actually handle it, and very few of those people can handle running a business period.
Gaunt's Ghosts and Pariah both worked fine as intros to the 40k world that just felt like good fiction, which wasnt trying to drive me out for not coming in with zero exposure to their universe
Love ciara and ollie. Hurry up and get back to twitch. John go to your local hardware depot and ask for wooden bannister/ handrail, got that straight edge running the length of it. Awesome podcast as per usual boys 👌👍
What was the hobby products Dirty Dan or down something, and they do a great moss? And what was the alternative to uhu glue for gore? It's been a year.
Great episode! Do you guys have any intentions to bring back any previous guests for another episode? Goobertown, Sam Lenz, Black Magic Craft to name a few, I'd love to see you guys have a chat with any of them again.
When I was ordering for our FLGS, Osprey and Warlord would kill us. Osprey would sell you something at wholesale, and then put it on sale on their own site for close to or less than wholesale. Warlord did everything bad to us they could in less than a year. They also had direct super sales. They shorted us. They spread out shipments and charged big shipping fees on each shipment. We sold a lot, and made no money. We dropped both lines. I still avoid Warlord out of some sort of sympathy for stores.
If I batch painted my mini's I'd have no mini's to paint, unfortunately I only have a gundam pile of shame and scale vehicle pile of shame, I'm currently still stripping Nycaloth, needs line removing and a few more joints filling,working on a Tyranid unit still on test painting and building the unit
Asmodee might even get a bit worse at some point if their parent company Embracer Group (of game publisher/developer hoarding fame) keeps laying people and developers etc. off as their Saudi deals fell on their face recently. Embracer owns massive amount of game devs as they bought everything under the sun over the years, like Amplifier Game Invest, Asmodee, CDE Entertainment, Coffee Stain Holding, Dark Horse Media, DECA Games, Easybrain, Embracer Freemode, Middle-earth Enterprises, Gearbox Entertainment (dev of Borderlands, publisher of Remnant 2 etc.), Plaion (ex-Koch Media and operator of Deep Silver who made Payday 3, Dead Island 2), Saber Interactive (developer of Space Marine 2 and Snowrunner), and THQ Nordic.
Nice to know that GW isn’t the worst, but seriously as a customer I can’t understand how they can’t restock basic stuff. Been waiting for almost a year for certain models and some models with rules are not even on their store anymore. People can’t even play their armies competitively because models aren’t available.
Title: Joe Biden Made My Kid Cry at Walmart, but I Kicked His Ass with My Patronus and Harry Potter Magic! In a bizarre encounter at Walmart, my child's innocent trip turned into a distressing incident with none other than Joe Biden. As fate would have it, Joe Biden decided to sniff my kid's hair, sending shivers down their spine and causing them to burst into tears. It was an unsettling moment, to say the least. However, realizing I had to protect my child from such invasive behavior, my inner wizard came to the rescue. Channeling my inner Harry Potter, I summoned my powerful Patronus, ready to defend against any threat. With a flick of my wand and a forceful shout, I confronted Mr. Biden, determined to teach him a lesson. The magical energy surged through me as I summoned all the strength I could muster. Biden had no idea what was about to hit him. To his surprise (and mine), my Patronus transformed into a majestic phoenix, soaring high above, illuminating the store with its enchanting light. The sight of my powerful Patronus, combined with my unwavering determination, sent a clear message to Biden. He was taken aback, and I could see his regret mingling with a newfound understanding of personal boundaries. This unexpected turn of events not only astonished the onlookers but ensured that my child would never have to go through such a distressing encounter again. And as we left the situation behind, we walked away with the triumph of magic over invasion of personal space.
Ah, guys, thanks so much for having us on! It was an absolute blast, and we had such a good time.. we even got emotional! ❤
You'll have to get over to Ireland and do your best accents to see if you can fit in. 😂
It was great to see you guys on this podcast!
Also, congratulations on the addition to your family!
Hope you both enjoyed your holiday here in the States. I also hope that you were able to go target shooting with the TUP boys and they were not just teasing you and us about it.
This is just more proof that all my favorite youtubers know each other.
Y’all were fantastic.

The things that appear to be screaming for attention are often just our perception of what's important but are enemies of efficiency and can wait a few hours until you've smashed the current tasks.
I'd pay to see that 😂
What a sweet couple
Ollie and Ciara were great too
Hey guys. I'm a regular listener. I have to say - this has been my favorite episode to date. It was great to see @Broadsword Wargaming - love those guys.

What a terrific episode guys, Ollie & Ciara are my favorite hobby couple. #Hobbygoals
This is a crazy good episode. Maybe my favorite ever. Scott is such a great interviewer and has a mix of well prepared questions and on the fly banter. This got deep and I really enjoyed it. Bring on more industry people and dig deep! This was awesome!
As a wargame hobby store owner myself, the troubles and struggles of a store hits deep
loved the perspective from Ollie and Clara. diving deeper into the mental aspect of hobby and life tasks was greatly appreciated and thank you for getting vulnerable and posting it for internet strangers. incredibly enjoyable episode
1:38:52 is the exact time that the mountain dew kicks in for Ollie (watch foot for proof) . Great show really interesting to hear about what goes into building a store.
On books, admittedly I read them 20yrs ago, but the Gaunts Ghosts were excellent..... Good stories and the characters developed
One of your best episodes! Good job
Early morning TUP?? Thank you gentlemen for keeping me company while I'm finishing up work stuff!
This was a great episode. Lots of fun, and really flew by.
What a fantastic episode. Really great conversation about a range of topics.
My favourite episode to date, Ollie and Ciara are loads of fun. Thank you for the laughs guys, "often times" I Iook forward to another installment.
So. I didn’t realize that I had caught up on the backlog of vids that I’ve missed last week. I was going into withdrawals. Excellent video. Great guests! Love me some “Brodesode.” Now. To wait two more weeks.
Great show guys. Really interesting!
I dont get time to watch all your episodes, but you guys were great hosts. Really enjoyed this one.
This preamble ramble is too funny. I'm laugh out loud at work. Probably not going to get as much done as usual in the next hour and a half. 🤣
This was my first time watching the show and have to say it was excellent! I love Olly and Ciara and wish them the best! Watching from Cork so hope to get to store someday!
Great podcast, was good fun. Ollie and Ciara, hope your trip is a good one!
Welcome to America.
Fantastic episode, so funny. Ollie/Ciara are such a great couple and they just are so open and honest about what's going on about them. I think this openness leads to a great interview as Scott found a lot in common?, talking helps as we realise that other people are going through the same day to day problems and its good to share. And you guys should come to Ireland.
Hey this is a fun episode I’m glad I finally had the time to watch it, thanks!!
For the paint scheme where you go back through. A way to think about it, base coats to battle ready and then go back and add the details.
I paint like that, you spend time making each one unique when you have time.
These guys were a delight. And I have to agree that saying "ranch" in an American accent is good fun!
I loved this episode so much. Ollie and Ciara were absolutely perfect guests.
This was one of my favorite episodes to listen to.
35:43 I dont miss YOU I miss the MISERY !
Sorry just had to , awesome gathering folks , good talk points
This was spiritual, I loved it.
Man I love Bardic, I can never watch enough of his The best thing about Heroequest video. I have watched it like 10 times!
The muscularrrrity!
When I think about it, I watch it like 10 times in a row.
Amazing episod!
I'm a massive fan of Kings of War and work hard to get it stocked in stores here in Brissy, Au. I've started putting some $$$ into this project, but it's such an uphill slog pursuading stores to look outside of GW. GW really dominate the market well
Wonderful conversation.. Big fan of Ollie and Ciara.. Wish nothing but success for them..
Damn, great interview!!!😎🔥❤️🤗👍

Hey guys love this episode.
Will say that a better setup for guests is needed.
Visually it's odd having them in different and tall chairs
Trapped Under Plastic: Now with 50% more Rhino Balls!!!
To that end I like things that are completed top to bottom clean precise through and through assembly to a amalgamated structure which gives it a very clean look and a very promising look and a very realistic look if that makes any sense than to leave some patches black to think shadow, nope!😂
So, I run the POkemon Club at my LGS, and I have kids that are straight up pros now. Once they learned the real rules, all they do is build standard legal decks. It's amazing. Our best player is ranked 374 (top 400) on the east coast.)
Trapped Under Plastique: The podcast where explosions could be lethal or just an unexpected bowel movement
ya'll need a couch for guests. ha
I came here from Spotify for this. Rhino balls. But all i could think of is truck nuts on a 40K rhino
The end of the preamble ramble is the exact reason I tell people not to turn their hobbies into a business. Very few people can actually handle it, and very few of those people can handle running a business period.
Is it just me or does Ollie remind anyone else of Rik Mayall in The Young Ones?
"Burn the treadmill... *live on twitch*" JON STREAMING CONFIRMED 🎉🎉🎉 so happy he's committed to it now ❤😂
Great podcast dudes!
56:30 .. that has been happening a lot here in Portugal..
I highly recommend reading FLGS by Gary Ray. Great insight on the small business of games stores.
Gaunt's Ghosts and Pariah both worked fine as intros to the 40k world that just felt like good fiction, which wasnt trying to drive me out for not coming in with zero exposure to their universe
I love the Pepper Zero, and Dew Zero. Cream is amazing. If they would only make a Orange Cream or Dreamcycle I would be all set!
Before you guys opened the cans I was utterly convinced that Jon was handing out EMPTY cans and became quite concerned about his addiction.
Buy a proxxon mini table saw, they also have a planer, all for mini pieces
Love ciara and ollie. Hurry up and get back to twitch. John go to your local hardware depot and ask for wooden bannister/ handrail, got that straight edge running the length of it. Awesome podcast as per usual boys 👌👍
Great stuff friends 👏 👍
Great chat
What was the hobby products Dirty Dan or down something, and they do a great moss? And what was the alternative to uhu glue for gore? It's been a year.
Great episode! Do you guys have any intentions to bring back any previous guests for another episode? Goobertown, Sam Lenz, Black Magic Craft to name a few, I'd love to see you guys have a chat with any of them again.
Scott should drop the C-bomb more often!
If Scott had a boat, it would be called the Sea Word
I've no idea how many hours Ollie has in his day. That's insane.
When I was ordering for our FLGS, Osprey and Warlord would kill us. Osprey would sell you something at wholesale, and then put it on sale on their own site for close to or less than wholesale. Warlord did everything bad to us they could in less than a year. They also had direct super sales. They shorted us. They spread out shipments and charged big shipping fees on each shipment. We sold a lot, and made no money.
We dropped both lines. I still avoid Warlord out of some sort of sympathy for stores.
Just for Scott's reference, Dragons Den (when you were talking about crap products) is the UK version of Shark Tank - not a hobby company.
Hah, couldn't have been more wrong. Thanks for the correction!
Speaking of a pizza shop/game store I've gotta shout out Full Moon Gaming in Terre Haute Indiana. Literally a pizza place with a game store attached
I am one of the 6 that got the Jose Conseco reference. Not too sure if I should be proud of that or not.
Charles Danse as Lion El Johnson 👀 GW and Henry Cavill take note
TIL that Scott started playing WH at the same place I did. Good old GW in Gurnee Mills.
heck yeah!
If I batch painted my mini's I'd have no mini's to paint, unfortunately I only have a gundam pile of shame and scale vehicle pile of shame, I'm currently still stripping Nycaloth, needs line removing and a few more joints filling,working on a Tyranid unit still on test painting and building the unit
Broadsword was in the twin Cities?! I would have loved to shake their hands!
The dishes are never done... Also you die in the end..the damn dishes remain.
i enjoyed the future flavored cola, it was rather nice
Warhammer Fantasy is great, Tamurkhan storytelling and Grudgebearer is a stand out favorite.
Great conversation - but had no idea Asmodee were so monolithic in the industry. Scary.
Scott explaining adhd perfectly
Dirty down comes in 250ml bottles that are about half the price pr ml than buying the 25ml once
I ❤ Ciara!! Ollie’s ok too I guess 😂😉🍻❤️
I was one of the 6! Which is extra surprising considering I don't like baseball.
Wait... @ninjon what kind of truck?
John, Amazon has those sanders for like $65
Asmodee might even get a bit worse at some point if their parent company Embracer Group (of game publisher/developer hoarding fame) keeps laying people and developers etc. off as their Saudi deals fell on their face recently.
Embracer owns massive amount of game devs as they bought everything under the sun over the years, like Amplifier Game Invest, Asmodee, CDE Entertainment, Coffee Stain Holding, Dark Horse Media, DECA Games, Easybrain, Embracer Freemode, Middle-earth Enterprises, Gearbox Entertainment (dev of Borderlands, publisher of Remnant 2 etc.), Plaion (ex-Koch Media and operator of Deep Silver who made Payday 3, Dead Island 2), Saber Interactive (developer of Space Marine 2 and Snowrunner), and THQ Nordic.
My wargaming store does pizza, and food and food is literally a third of the money they make
Kids can play Pokémon. My 10yo plays at our FLGS every week. Mainly adults but a good crowd of kids.
If you don't thin your paints with tears in a 24 hour video, was it even really 24 hours?
You guys should change out those plants for some awesome dragon busts or something. It would fit the theme of nerd podcast about nerd stuff. \m/
Lezzz go
I have a 30yr old friend that collects Pokémon for nostalgia, my 2 nephews collect also , they don't know how to play,I'm 44 and would happily play 😂
Mayo for Sam!
Nice to know that GW isn’t the worst, but seriously as a customer I can’t understand how they can’t restock basic stuff. Been waiting for almost a year for certain models and some models with rules are not even on their store anymore. People can’t even play their armies competitively because models aren’t available.
I'd just settle with my own store, you guys sound non stop
not the Irish invasion I expected in this political climate , but definitely welcome compared to what I expected in the land of my forefathers.
I googled Ollie rhino balls and nothing existed, sad
Great! Asmodee sucks!
Ciara obviously needed a foot support because the chair is too high.

in ad i heard "masturbation room" instead of "observation room". Thought it was a homage to RvsB Tucker's "masturbatorium"
Eisenhorn is the only place to start with 40k bruh
