EPISODE 200: Totally Twisted 200

The 2 Half-Squads: Advanced Squad Leader Podcast - A podcast by The 2 Half-Squads

Categories:

Our own Dave and Jeff celebrate 200 episodes Boy, that number 200 does look odd in the title.  We hope you don't have your hopes up too much this one. Doing that almost always guarantees disappointment and we give you enough disappointment even without our listeners having an unusually high expectation for this podcast. Following the usual format Jeff presents a look at BFP-78 Operation Wheatfield from Bounding Fire's (ding-ding) Crucible of Steel, after the usual banter of course. If you didn't know that Dave went to Ireland, well, you will after this show. Jeff's almost completed defense for BFP-78 Episode 200 is saved from its own banality by the marvelous interviews that we snagged at the 2018 ASL Open, right here in Chicagoland. You will learn some history of the game while you get to meet some of these wonderful people in the ASL community.  ENJOY! SHOWTIMES 0:02 MASH Parody Song (lyrics by D.
