Melksham? Don't mind if I do!

Aug 04 2024 85 mins  
A rare reappearance for the Madaxeman Podcast as a part new, part old crew heads down to the West Country for a bit of Hard Rock, a lot of beer, pubs and food, and eventually some rather eclectic analysis of a variety of unsuccesful army lists from the recent ADLG competitions held at the Attack! show in Devizes. Join me, Dave from The Podcast, Another Dave (technically "the Dave f

Episode 100 - The Alicante Lists Podcast

Feb 03 2024 118 mins  
Disproving the old adage that the best things in life are worth waiting for, the 100th episode of the Madaxeman Podcast thunders onto the airwaves with an epic, 6-handed special all the way from Spain, as myself, Dave From The Podcast & Aussie Simon are joined by Gordon, Revolutionary Dave and Mark to discuss and digest the lists we all used at the recent Alicante competition.

Roll Call 2023 : The Top 5 Lists

Apr 24 2023 70 mins  
It's been a while since we've done an ADLG Army List podcast, but with the recent Roll Call event throwing up some really interesting lists in a 15mm theme called The Roman Pond (armies and enemies of the Roman Republic & Empire that could have dipped their toes in the Med) it seemed like an ideal opportunity to delve back into the theory of list design yet again. In this episode n

The Normandy Landings

Apr 14 2023 84 mins  
Yes, a rare in-the-field podcast in which a team of 3 (me, Dave from the Podcast and Mike) storm the beaches of Normandy to visit Bayeux, Le Havre, several seaside gun positions, Pegasus Bridge, Rouen and Dieppe whilst also finding time to fit in a bit of Norman-themed ADLG competition action in between numerous bouts of eating, drinking, discussing former Fulham players of the las

Le Herring Rouge!

Apr 07 2023 87 mins  
The only wargames podcast to tell you all you ever wanted to know about waterfly larvae returns with a springtime Easter (Not All That) Special episode in which we execute the usual discursive tour through a multitude of topics, asking all of the key questions including; Just how much are plastic figures nowadays? Who makes the best Byzantines and why is it Aventine? Are two packet

The Idlers of March

Mar 03 2023 113 mins  
After a lengthy hiatus almost all of the podcast team return for a daffodil-sprouting episode at the very start of March 2023. Despite the absence of any badger-related content, we do manage to cover shopping expeditions (online and in real life), take a diversion into discussing the merits of Siocast/Warlord Resin/"I Can't believe It's Not Called Airfix" plastic figures, get into

Les Petits Tanks dans La Bouche Du Bourne

Nov 21 2022 86 mins  
After a few weeks which went past in the flash of an eye, a full 7-handed (well, technically 14-handed) team return for more witless chatter and half-hearted attempts at analysis and insight in this tightly wound 90 minute post-Warfare episode. We cover the usual mix of painting and gaming and this week also have a "show special" shopping discussion as face to face retail activity

Series 3 Opener : Huge Grenadier Hat Malarkey

Oct 07 2022 118 mins  
After a barren 5 month interregnum a mathematical majority of the Madaxeman Podcast crew stumble grudgingly back onto the airwaves with a near-2-hour episode to kickstart the 3rd series. Any semblance of order, structure and giving the impression of planning is almost instantly thrown out of the window as we immediately go off tangent in a fascinating discussion around the origin (

Oh My Aachen Nuts!

May 12 2022 96 mins  
A decidedly Carry On-flavoured episode title hides within it a pun-tastic "five-handed" episode this month/week, as we take you on a road trip the like of which has not been seen since the Blues Brothers set off for Chicago with half a tank of gas, two packets of cigarettes and their still-iconic-now Ray-Ban sunglasses all those years ago. Our journey however thankfully avoids Dave

The North Macedonia All Stars

Mar 31 2022 101 mins  
In this March & April episode the full suite of seven engage in an unexpected discussion comparing Warlord and GW's "Contrast"/ "Speed" paints that occasionally veers into actual proper wargaming podcast territory at times. Keeping with this unusual approach there is also a bit of a chat about 3D printing and the gentle wave of retirements washing across the traditional manufacture
