ModelGeek's Podcast
Hey Modelers! Welcome to the ModelGeeks Podcast, a place where we talk about anything and everything relating to scale models. Sit back and buckle up for an exciting journey into the world of scale modeling. It doesn’t matter whether you’re new to the hobby, been around since Moses, or that you build aircraft, armor, ships, or automobiles. We hope to have a little bit for each of you.
Our format is simple; modeling news you can use with a few tips and techniques, some lighthearted banter (maybe a beer or two...) and most importantly, interaction with you, the listener! Please feel free to drop us an email at: contact@modelgeekspodcast.com and weigh in on whatever our show topic is. You can also find us on the ModelGeeks Facebook Page or our website: www.modelgeekspodcast.com.
In closing, thanks to all the ModelGeeks out there! This podcast wouldn't exist without the tremendous support we have received from all the Geeks! We really hope that you will download and make us a regular part of your modeling bench sessions. As we always say... be excellent to each other and by all means, get out there and build something!

MGPC Episode 100 "The Big Hundo!!!"
Welcome to Episode 100 of The ModelGeeks Podcast—a major milestone and a celebration of our journey through the world of scale modeling! We finally made it to triple digits, and we couldn’t have done it without YOU. A heartfelt thank you to all our listeners for your incredible support along the way. Here’s to the next 100 episodes!
In this episode, the Geeks reflect on the road so far and look ahead to what’s next. Of course, we've been busy at the bench (and burning up the credit cards), so we’ll chat about the latest kits, tools, and goodies hitting the modeling scene—and which ones we just couldn’t resist.
As spring rolls in, we hope your bench time is in full swing and that you're putting the finishing touches on your next contest entry or display piece. Don’t forget to share your work with us and the community through our website or Facebook group—we love seeing your builds, and you might just inspire someone else to get modeling!

MGPC Ep. 98 Researching and Planning Your Model Build...A Listener Asks??
Welcome to Episode 98 of The Modelgeeks Podcast!
We’ve all been busy at the bench through March! We’ll talk about cool new items coming our way, and what we’ve picked up lately, as well as pay a visit to the Modelgeeks web page’s “Listener Gallery” and have a look at the great work from you folks out there.
For our main topic of discussion, we pull from the Mail Bag! Mr. Robbie Nauffts of Alberta Canada asks:
“How do you research a subject for a build?” Are you looking at a specific aircraft? Or a cross section of similar aircraft? What happens when Samo is planning a build compared to Frilldo? Exc.
Do we always go to the books for a build, or can we just relax and go out of the box and just enjoy building a model kit? Or is doing research part of the enjoyment? We each have our take on it.
We would like to thank all you listeners out there for the continued support you have given the show.
Share your work with us and the rest of the scale modeling community through our web page, or through our Facebook community page. We love seeing other people’s work. Who knows who you may inspire someone through your latest masterpiece!

MGPC EP 97 "New Techniques with Geoff Martin of Furball Aero-Design
Welcome to Episode 97 of The Modelgeeks Podcast!
In this episode, the Modelgeeks are joined by the one and only Geoff Martin of Furball Aero-Design decals. Furball joins the geeks in the formation and goes for a lap in the pattern. Furball gives some insight to how the Furball Brand came to be. The Geeks get the news form one of the industry leaders when it comes to aftermarket decals. The Geeks answer mail, take a lap in the pattern around the Modelgeeks website and say what has stood out to them.
For the main topic, Furball propose the topic of what were some of your game changers in your toolbox. The Geeks go around the pattern and discuss what their game changers were and how they have helped them get to where they are today. We would like to thank all the listeners for the continued support you have given the show. We hope to see you out and about as we hit some of the shows or if you decide to come visit ours in October.
