Episode 77: Back on the (Hobby) Horse
What do we do when we fall off the hobby horse? We get back on! How on earth does a Zoolander quote make it into an episode? When we are talking motivation that’s when! When you are in a hobby rut sometimes you just have to get back on the hobby horse – but maybe we have some tips to help you with that!
We talk about how to get your mojo back for the hobby in this episode, from changing tack, getting a hobby buddy, joining a club and more – we have you covered on ways you can reignite your joy in the hobby.
We also cover a bunch of new releases from Games Workshop like their McFarlane Toys action figures coming soon (check out the citadel colour website as well), the new VR game Battle Sister as well as the wealth of Sunday preview news.
I have to take a moment to mention the rerelease of perhaps the greatest fantasy board game of all time – Heroquest. First off – you can find out why Heroquest is the greatest game HERE and enjoy the original TV ad for it HERE. You can check out the crowd funding the 2020 edition HERE – you can be damn sure I will be trying my best to get a copy!
While Western Australia seems to be on the mend, we want to make sure you are all looking after yourselves during this trying quarantine period – if you need help from more than your present support network (and are in Western Australia) you can contact Beyond Blue (1300 22 46 36), Life line (131 114) or Crisis Care (089223 1111). If you are outside of Western Australia we really encourage you checking out your local provider of mental health via your preferred search engine.
With the world still in a flux, have you hit a hobby rut? What have you tried to break that rut? Is this your first hobby block or have you overcome it before and if so how? We would love to hear about your experiences and hear your feedback on this – we want to hear from you!
