Episode #31: A Potential Reason to Buy Property in Ohio: Adam Sharp from the Thomas Hill Wargaming Group

Friends- Kelly and I only interviewed Adam a few days ago, but couldn't help but post the conversation immediately. While not necessarily "affiliated" with Firelock Games, Adam and his Thomas Hill Wargamers crew (from Ohio) love their games, and even have been showcased in some of Firelock's books! Because of this, it made sense to post the pods together, as we talked so much about the Firelock team with Adam. Ultimately, I've been impressed by the Thomas Hill Wargamers ever since I saw their amazing WW1 trench board at Historicon 2024. Additionally, they have been published in a few wargaming magazines. They have an amazing game club and are prolific when it comes to their online presence- hence how we came into contact. I loved doing this interview. Frankly, this interview is exactly why I got into podcasting, as while I knew a lot about the wargaming club, I knew very little about Adam. He has lived quite the life, doing work on behalf of farmers everywhere. He has traveled the world, worked in government, lived in DC, and has even taken a gamified approach to working out the kinds of problems farmers could have in catastrophe. It was a fascinating conversation. Also- I do want to point out that this little family unit- created by this pod- will be a lot of fun to get together with this summer. Cigars? Rum? Wargaming? Maybe a little danger? Should be a blast! I hope you enjoy this podcast (and the Firelock episode) as much as I did!And, don't forget about our sponsor, BetterHelp!
