I don’t get to use superlatives enough anymore. Which is why I’m glad that I can finally say that we had a chance to talk this week with Geel. He is the co-owner of the three largest trading resources in Team Fortress 2; Scrap.tf Marketplace.tf and now finally Backpack.tf. It’s hard to see it any other way. Geel is the most important man in TF2 trading. Also on the show The Breadmonster plushie from Welovefine.

Sigafoo is a man we’ve had on the show before. Yotts is a man who’s things we’ve had on the show before. Freelands is a man no show can hold for very long. Together they form (part of) RGL.GG, the answer to a question no-one asked but everyone was happy to listen to. Also on the show: Proposed Balance Changes SourceCBL the global ban list

YouTuber and hastily assembled potato lover, RTGame joins us this week. A week when Valve breaks their vow of silence to let us know they are still thinking about palm trees, tigers and vines. Not the wine type, though maybe them as well. Also on this week’s show: RTGame YouTube | Twitch | Twitter Update June 16th 2017 TF2 Blog Post on the Jungle Update!

For the longest time Europe has had one clear winner when it comes to TF2 esports. Unlike the big pay to complete kings of North America, this giant is free. Run exclusively by volunteers who selflessly give up their free time and energy so that the game they love has a place to be played. Recently the role of head admin has been divided in two, with one half falling on the shoulders of our guest this week Stinson. Also on the show this week: ETF2L Freshmeat Frag movie comp Highlander Nations Cup i61 announce tweet Jay Pinkerton has left Valve

We’ve coaxed three of the /r/tf2/ mods out of their safe places to come talk about the subreddit that drives much of the community discussion around Team Fortress 2. Meeting these guys really puts it in balance, the level of sustained professionalism required to look after everyone, and keep this sub one of the best on reddit. Also on the show: SPUF (Steam User Forums) shutting down on June 5th Arms Race III Elon Musk playing TF2 LMAOBOX Detected Scrap.tf buys backpack.tf Thanks to Wiethoofd, A_Satanic_Fish, Murky (Deadshot_Calamity), duck74UK, wickedplayer494, Acksor, angrypotato1, Brewster_The_Pigeon, smhxx and all the moderators of /r/tf2 past present and future for keeping us safe and sane(ish).

A bit of one on one time was called for this week. We spent it getting to know GermanPeter, the creator of Overtime, a parody love letter to both Team Fortress 2 and Undertale in game form.

In case it’s not clear from the title, we have Skymin and MaxBox joining us on the show this week. Skymin is a brilliant YouTuber who makes her own SFM Thumb art, bursts into song at a moment’s notice and appears to have achieved the impossible. MaxBox used to be a hacker/script kiddie. He’s turned over a new leaf, chosen washing machines, cars, compact disc players, and electrical tin can openers. And the reasons? There are no reasons. Who needs reasons when you’ve got hats?

Never has a player been more infamous than stabby stabby. He is the old school spy, more myth than man.  The most French California has ever spawned. And now he’s here with us on this podcast, somewhere, probably.

I don’t think I’ve been quite so sad to see a LAN end as I was when hugs.tf finally packed up and everyone went their separate ways. The show here comes to you as it was recorded, live. I was joined by lor_is and Squirrel and we chatted about the event itself, the distinct lack of sleep everyone was getting and how much something like this means to the TF2 community as a whole. The medal was awarded to anyone who donated £10 or more, or that equivalent in items. Shout out to Special Effect and the amazing work they do. If want to get involved with them, or figure out how to run your own event head over to their site.

At last, we finally get to talk to Chloemew. She’s had something of a massive rise in popularity, having seemingly come from nowhere to now be featured pretty much everywhere. Yeah, I’m looking at you Fenrir, and with your YT interview. We also pulled Teleportato (I’m worried that my spellcheck now knows how to autocorrect this) out from the post show MvM, he’s the one who always sends us to Virginia, and into the podcast.

Wack (no dot) and Agro (never has been a dot) are joined by Tobiased (SFM thumbmaker to the stars), to bring you news of: The update on 17th April Fight Songs, finally available in US and UK Amazon, and rest of the world Team Source and its current Contest Config Site

Peterscraps and Doomsday.exe are very definitely our guests on the show this week. A week that sees two updates, April 12th and April 13th (including a fix for all pre-Sandybridge processors). There are two ETF2L Experiment Cups, a Gamers Assembly viewing guide and two long lost artists return, Rammy and Hoo. Lastly, Nate confirms there’s to be a new animated short.

The top trio of Chronos, Uberchain and Agro are back togehter. There is much to discuss; from comic book lore to the work of Julien Renoult, TFC coming of age, a wet Pyro, Fresh Meat, MvM and Hugs dot TF. We’re interviewing Valve, need lore nerds Unpublished Team Fortress 2 comic Julien Renoult – Artstation TFC is 18 Rainy day pyro Fresh Meat TF2Map’s Mappers vs Machines and their Medals Hugs.tf schedule + guests announced

Flittzy, the impressive songsmith of TF2 is here with us to treat your eardrums. You may recognise him from such iconic tunes as “Flames” and “Edgy Scout Main“.

There are two types of Heavies in this world; those that have beaten the cheesecake out of their opponents in a boxing ring and those that plan to do it tomorrow. We caught up with two such hardballs, Clayface and The Gentlemann’s Fedora, who have taken hand to face combat into a whole other level by creating the National Heavy Boxing League. A safe place for gentle persons of the bulky Russian variety to converse using the medium of fists.
