Did they play 8 games apiece? Yes! Were some of them bad? Also yes! You can listen right now and get the scoop.

    40k Badcast 179 - The Def Leppard

    Honesty time! Dan had a bunch of hilarious notes for this episode, but the power went out and he hadn't saved his .txt! What a buffoon! Anyways, the fellas talk Adepticon plans, Dan fails a quiz, and they create the greatest and most serendipitous mutant of all time. Gripping stuff! https://www.patreon.com/40kBadcast https://40kbadcast.bigcartel.com/ contact@40kbadcast.com

    40k Badcast 178 - The Farty-kay Scatcast

    Hey, we don't like it either, but for some reason, the fellas had two different discussions about poop in this show.

    40k Badcast Special Report: Is it OVA for NOVA? Say it ain't SO-VA!

    In what can only be described as truly unfortunate news, some shit went down with the NOVA Open late last year, and the bois are here to talk about it. We've got a corroborated and accurate timeline of events, and interview with the creator of the piece that kicked this whole thing off, and Campbell and Dan weigh in with analysis and future plans. It's not the most fun anyone's ever had podcasting, but it's necessary work.

    40k Badcast 175 - The Hot Grot Minute

    It is time, once again, to look deep into your (Kia) soul, and ask: Why did so many peoples' houses smell like ham in the 1990s? What was the deal with that? Anyways, the eejits are back with yet another bad cast, and this time they're talking the Nissan MacroVan; applesauce and medicine; Colonel Ephraim's Anal Flamethrower; and hard booch AKA fart tea. Also they return to the Primaris Pizza Parlor in episode 3: la Bellissima Terza! Meravigliosa! https://www.patreon.com/40kBadcast https://40kbadcast.bigcartel.com/ contact@40kbadcast.com

    40k Badcast 174 - Campbell Shows His True Colors (Yellow)

    For once, the title of this episode isn't a reference to piss, but instead Campbell's moral fortitude, which is...lacking. But don't worry, there is at least one piss-based bit in the show. We gotta hit those quotas, after all. Other terrible bits include: the giga-cow, pustin' makes me feel good, and the dreaded "griculture" bit. No, none of it makes any sense to me, either. Good luck! https://www.patreon.com/40kBadcast https://40kbadcast.bigcartel.com/ contact@40kbadcast.com

    40k Badcast 172 - All Roads Lead to Dome

    Oh yes, folks. Much like a bad penny, the jaw-jackin' jabronis have once again returned to fill your head with some truly dumbass shit. This time around, the fuckos talk "Lou Dante", Campbell's finger cymbals, and who wants a taste of the Blood Angels' jungle juice. Also, they ask the question, who do you want as your 40k primary care physician? Get it while it's hot, horndogs! https://www.patreon.com/40kBadcast https://40kbadcast.bigcartel.com/ contact@40kbadcast.com

    40k Badcast 171 - Engage on One Front

    Hello, everyone! The jabronis are back with yet another choice cut of warhammer-themed grab-ass! This time Campbell paints the town gulten-free in Salt Lake City, Utah, and Dan spends truly stupid money on food in Nottingham, England! Also, Dan is 40 now. That sucks! Additionally, the lads touch on making a choice to win the game, the Emperor's Dan-pion, and Dan kills a mosquito LIVE ON AIR! Can't miss this one! Or maybe you can, no one is keeping score! https://www.patreon.com/40kBadcast https://40kbadcast.bigcartel.com/ contact@40kbadcast.com
