Show notes
Richard Sponholz and James Easteppe are joined by a very special guest, a founding member of New England Old School scene and prolific Old School tournament organizer, Dave Firth Bard. We talk about his history with the game, the growth and cultivation of the New England Old School scene, and most importantly in 2020, webcam Magic, as well as the recent LobsterCom webcam OS tournament he hosted. Can we finish the episode before James drinks himself into a stupor? No, but we can make it sound that way through the magic of editing!
