Episode Details

Prepare for a whirlwind of modeling excitement as we gear up for a major event! Mike and Kentucky Dave discuss the nitty-gritty of packing and hosting house guests, all while enjoying Guinness and Trader Joe's Hefeweizen. We reveal some thrilling behind-the-scenes updates, including a platform change for our podcast, and share listener mail, featuring a hilarious anecdote from Dave Kinsey about living with multiple Daves and a Mike. Plus, we announce the much-anticipated MarauderCon 2024 and highlight Mike MacKowski's latest release in his Space Miniature series.

Long-time listener Bob Bair joins us for a nostalgic trip down memory lane, talking model railroading and music, with a special nod to Rush. We share laughter over food poisoning jokes and Shakespearean references before diving into the frustrations of traveling with fragile models, sparked by an email from Brandon Jacob. From recounting TSA mishandles, including Jake McKee's Battlestar Galactica diorama, to discussing the distinctions and overlaps between model railroaders and scale modelers, this episode is packed with insights and stories.

Our passion for scale modeling shines through as we share both the joys and challenges of the hobby. Evan previews his weathering presentation at the National Convention, and we express our excitement about upcoming releases like the Ornithopters from Dune and Takom's new sdkfz 250 series half-tracks. We also honor Jeff Hearn and his team's dedication to the hobby, setting the stage for our next gathering in Wisconsin. Join us for camaraderie, laughter, and an unwavering love for scale modeling!
