Episode 003 "Warhammer's Real Men of Genius" has gone GOLD!

Direct download site:  http://www.cyberears.com/podcasts/podcast_5800.xml
(Also available via itunes a few hours after this is posted.)

**Note: Due to a technical issue I didn't catch early enough, the audio quality suffers (most specifically Tom's volume level).  It is still good, but if this is your first show, know that it is usually better :>

Brohammer presents "Warhammer's, Real Men of Genius" Monster double length holiday special episode.  :)

We start this episode off with some chat about what kind of beer we are drinking (Kevin's homebrew for us-Tom's got an import) and move right into what we have been doing in the hobby since last we met.

WARHAMMER"S REAL MEN of GENIUS! At the 20:37 mark we introduce our new signature digital short.  This will be a continuing spot with related contests in the future and a new "salute" every episode!

After the break we come back with coverage of Tom's recent 3 game local tourney up in IL.  Then I discuss the NC Masters tourney and the results.
A short rules section takes us out.

Happy Holidays!

Twitter, Twitter, Tweet, Tweet

No, we did not buy a canary to be the Brohammer mascot.  Way more exciting than that.

Brohammer is now on Twitter!

That's right, you can now know instantly when the newest episode of Brohammer goes live.  You will also get updates about what the shows main host (me!) is doing at random times.  Could be interesting. :p

Give me your Tired, your Tournaments, Events, and Huddled Warhammer Masses

Brohammer is all about supporting warhammer in the South.  That means if you have a warhammer event that you would like us to mention, we probably will! 

You can drop the host an e-mail: brohammercast@yahoo.com
or post on the forums:  Brohammer.proboards.com

Even if it isn't exactly local, give me a shout and I'll promote it.  I believe that keeping the local listeners connected with the larger scene  helps encourage hometown warhammer.  Ya' gotta' get excited about something!

Brohammer Forums are Active!

The Brohammer forums are up and running!

http://www.brohammer.proboards.com/

You can join up and join in the discussions about warhammer, the podcast, or anything else that you fancy.

Be sure to drop by the welcome and introductions section and say hello.  We want to know who is enjoying Brohammer out there!

You can call me "Brocephus" from now on. 

You see, this is the perfect name not only because it cleverly incorporates my podcast title "hook" but also relates back to my southern hillbilly roots.  Rock on! 
(Many thanks to the Rodge Lodge of  PointHammered fame for the cool moniker)

What is a Brohammer?

1. Brohammer
     
The words bro and hammer combined into one awesome title for someone who is so cool     they deserve a title of combined words, like bro and hammer. Often times used when greeting the friend.
"Hey Rory, 'sup brohammer?"

2. Brohammer

Generic term used to describe any individual who loiters on the beach areas of midwest lakes. They will almost always plead with local fisherman, asking if they can have the unwanted bottom feeding fish that would normally be thrown back into the lake or beaten to death. (Carp, Catfish, etc)
"Dude, here comes that Brohammer. Quick, kick that Carp back into the lake."


(From the Urban Dictionary)

Getting some airtime on tape!

We taped our first session of witty banter!  It ended up being about 45 minutes. 

Now we are looking to bring McClure in via Skype for the first of many WTsquared segments (Warhammer time with Tom)  Or otherwise known as:  2 Engineers, 1 cop....

That segment will finish out our first episode and we will be able to publish!

Exciting stuff :>

WIP shots of the Corsairs

Here are a few shots of the corsairs.  Very WIP.  There are about 25 models shown.  I built a total of 40!







The heads are from a Polish company called MaxMini.  http://www.maxmini.eu/ 
Excellent customer service.  I couldn't be happier with my experience there.












I think the head swaps work out really well and once painted, will tie the corsairs into my over-all theme of the Cult of Slaanesh. :>

Close to Jumping In

We are working out the technical side of the equation atm.  This is the first foray into the podcasting world for either of us.  I am eager to start this project!  We have all the equipment that I think we need.  We just have to put it all together and start rolling tape!

Brohammer Podcast COMING SOON!
