Listening to episode 1 and very much enjoying it, a great discussion.

I like how you're bringing on a lot of interesting people that I've never heard of before, I even registered on Twitch because of this! Episode 4 was a bit tough for me as a non native speaker due to poor sound quality and strong accents... also I have no idea what a Chalice is but I guess I can google it. :-)

thanks verminado,

On Blood Bowl two they run week seasons that start with brand new teams, and at the end the top 3-4 of each race are invited into one big KO tourney, often called the Chalice. of CCL finals. or CCL cup.

as to string accents, that may only get worse as i invite non english speakers on, of course they tend to use less slang, so maybe not.

And the whole idea is to go looking into every corner of blood Bowl can find, feel free to pop by my Discord and recommend someone.

Often I feel that native speakers are actually harder because non-native speakers don't swallow as many syllables. ;-) I know that in German I often muble or talk too fast, which I don't do in English. Often I have no trouble understanding foreigners speaking English, even with an accent. Except that Volbeat singer, I don't know what it is with that guy. ;-P

Anyway, it's a lovely show, I think with everyone the same volume and using a decent microphone it'd be absolutely fine!

Personally I would love to see a tabletop centered episode, see some more of the NAF cracks on, Purplegoo or Joemanji, or one of the reigning World Champions from France. Or maybe one of the organizers of the next Eurobowl in Malta?
