Hey everyone! Welcome to Gamers and Gadgets, a podcast by Models Workshop. Gamers and Gadgets is not exactly a spin off from the long running After Hours podcast but a way to explore more aspects of the hobby than miniature painting.

Everyone knows Larry, the long running and long suffering front runner of the Models Workshop podcasts. Joining him in this Adventure are Marie, Chloe, and Krys (aka Mino) bringing in their experiences with games and gadgets.

We strive for all things nerdy, bringing you vast geeky energy. We cover collectable card games like Magic: The Gathering, Pokemon, and Yu-Gi-Oh to the world of miniatures game play from Games Workshop games like Warhammer 40k and Age of Sigmar to miniature painting and airbrushing. We also discuss our favorite movies, books, and music that we are excited for. Larry is a former book reviewer for The Founding Fields and enjoys listening to many podcasts while driving down the road. Marie is a wiz on 3d printers, both filament and resin, has a love of print and play and solo play games, and has been running various role playing games [keywords] for years. Chloe is a miniature painter and MTG alterist. Krystopher is Larry’s long time friend from the MMO video game City of Villains. 

As a whole we just enjoy sitting back and discussing what we have been doing, the various Kickstarters that hit the market and to the guests we bring on the show. So sit back and get your nerdon, and remember…. rawr
