  20. 40k Badcast 174 - Campbell Shows His True Colors (Yellow)

  29. 40k Badcast 167 - Bricked-Up Whilst Decanting

    We've said many times that "this is the most unhinged episode yet!" Ther veracity of this statement cannot be proven.

    The Badcast bois are back! They've struggled through the intervening weeks and have appeared, vagrant-like, on the outskirts of town: haggard, starved, and scabby.

  49. 40k Badcast 152 - The Cast? Bad. The Mutants? Sad.

    We could have named this episode "If I ain't truckin', I'm fuckin'" but we didn't because Rob from Goonhammer would get mad at us. And then the big fat checks would stop arriving every Friday.
