A website devoted to American games as opposed to Euro games.  The podcast is done by League President Steve Weeks aka The Mad Gamer.  This podcast is definitely dead.  See BGG thread “What happened to the Ultimate Podcast?” It was controversial but it was also entertaining. I got all of the episodes except for the last two but thanks to BGG user Matchstickman in England I was able to complete my collection.  (BGG member Sir Loin o Beef was also willing to help me get the missing episodes.)  Link to the Dead site in case it ever comes up.

I have all of the episodes before Steve’s site temporarily went DEAD. These episode are between Jan 29, 2007 and July 4, 2007.

The League podcast started back up in Oct 2007 and had 12 more podcast with the last one being in August 2008. The site is down again and I am not sure if or when it will be back up.  I will try to get up these other 12 episodes posted when I get a chance.

Friendly Local Gaming Stores in SE Wisconsin

I strongly feel that you should support your Friendly Local Gaming Store!!  Here are some links to the FLGS that I have been to in Southeast Wisconsin.  I get almost all of my games at Rockheads in Kenosha.  Whenever I have to go to Appleton WI for work I stop by Chimera Hobby shop in Appleton and Fond Du Lac to see if they have any cool deals.  In fact I stop in at hobby and game shops where ever I go.
