The Canadian Wargamer

Author: Michael Peterson

Your hosts James and Mike, with the occasional guest, look at the Canadian wargames scene. We're interested in miniature wargaming, board (hex and counter) games, and how Canadian military history inspires some of our projects. We hope to help tell the stories of a small but dynamic hobby scene in a big country.

Canadian Wargamer Podcast 32 With Our Guest Don Perrin: The Wargaming Hobby and "The Churn"
Episode 34
Tuesday, 23 September, 2025

Mike and James are joined by our friend and wargaming dignitary Don Perrin to take a 360 degree view of the wargaming hobby in the midst of "the churn" of where we are as a society - "churn" being the vortex of technological, social, political and economic flux that we're all caught up in. I think out conclusion is surprisingly optimistic, but have a listen and tell us what you think!
