This week on the podcast, Sean interviews his good friend Eric Lott. Eric is an expert on all things miniature.One of his main passions in life is playing a game called Flames of War. Flames of War is a World War Two board game where the players paint their own pewter figures to match the look of soldiers of that era. Hardcore individuals buy these expensive unfinished men to have the privilege of spending many an eye destroying hour painting them by hand. They sometimes also create landscapes for the soldiers to battle upon. THEN, you get to play the actual game. Eric explains the origins of his hobby and shows off his many Soviet figures.

Today on the podcast, Sean talks to the living legend, Dan Manco. Sean and Dan went to grad school together and share a love of the reclusive singer, Morrissey. Over the hour, the two talk about Dan growing up in Indiana and then chat about the ex-Smith. Dan wrote his thesis on Morrissey lyrics and disability studies and you can read a chapter of his work in the book, "Morrissey: Fandom, Representation, and Identities" (http://www.amazon.com/Morrissey-Eoin-Devereux-ebook/dp/B005IZ0CZK).
