Show overview

The 40k Badcast has been publishing since 2017, and across the 9 years since has built a catalogue of 206 episodes. That works out to roughly 350 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a fortnightly cadence.

Episodes typically run over ninety minutes — most land between 1h 26m and 2h — and the run-time is fairly consistent across the catalogue. The publisher flags most episodes as explicit, so expect adult themes or strong language throughout. It is catalogued as a EN-language Leisure show.

The show is actively publishing — the most recent episode landed 3 days ago, with 8 episodes already out so far this year.

40k Badcast 179 - The Def Leppard

E

Honesty time! Dan had a bunch of hilarious notes for this episode, but the power went out and he hadn't saved his .txt! What a buffoon! Anyways, the fellas talk Adepticon plans, Dan fails a quiz, and they create the greatest and most serendipitous mutant of all time. Gripping stuff! https://www.patreon.com/40kBadcast https://40kbadcast.bigcartel.com/ [email protected]

40k Badcast 178 - The Farty-kay Scatcast

Hey, we don't like it either, but for some reason, the fellas had two different discussions about poop in this show. They really need to get some new material, as the old stuff is startin' to stink! Har Har Har! https://www.patreon.com/40kBadcast https://40kbadcast.bigcartel.com/ [email protected]

40k Badcast Special Report: Is it OVA for NOVA? Say it ain't SO-VA!

E

In what can only be described as truly unfortunate news, some shit went down with the NOVA Open late last year, and the bois are here to talk about it. We've got a corroborated and accurate timeline of events, and interview with the creator of the piece that kicked this whole thing off, and Campbell and Dan weigh in with analysis and future plans. It's not the most fun anyone's ever had podcasting, but it's necessary work.

40k Badcast 175 - The Hot Grot Minute

E

It is time, once again, to look deep into your (Kia) soul, and ask: Why did so many peoples' houses smell like ham in the 1990s? What was the deal with that? Anyways, the eejits are back with yet another bad cast, and this time they're talking the Nissan MacroVan; applesauce and medicine; Colonel Ephraim's Anal Flamethrower; and hard booch AKA fart tea. Also they return to the Primaris Pizza Parlor in episode 3: la Bellissima Terza! Meravigliosa! https://www.patreon.com/40kBadcast https://40kbadcast.bigcartel.com/ [email protected]

40k Badcast 174 - Campbell Shows His True Colors (Yellow)

E

For once, the title of this episode isn't a reference to piss, but instead Campbell's moral fortitude, which is...lacking. But don't worry, there is at least one piss-based bit in the show. We gotta hit those quotas, after all. Other terrible bits include: the giga-cow, pustin' makes me feel good, and the dreaded "griculture" bit. No, none of it makes any sense to me, either. Good luck! https://www.patreon.com/40kBadcast https://40kbadcast.bigcartel.com/ [email protected]

E

Damn, player! I didn't know you liked to get wet! And by wet I mean "enjoy a podcast from your friends at the 40k Badcast!" You know that's right! This episode has it all: Dave Mustaine, Mave Dustaine, Davis Mustavis, and the guy from Mergerderth! That not enough to hook you? Just wait, there's more: Sicarius math, golden showers, and the Paul Blart Cosplay Society! This podcast truly has it all, and you can, too, for one easy payment of 2 hours of your life.

40k Badcast 172 - All Roads Lead to Dome

E

Oh yes, folks. Much like a bad penny, the jaw-jackin' jabronis have once again returned to fill your head with some truly dumbass shit. This time around, the fuckos talk "Lou Dante", Campbell's finger cymbals, and who wants a taste of the Blood Angels' jungle juice. Also, they ask the question, who do you want as your 40k primary care physician? Get it while it's hot, horndogs! https://www.patreon.com/40kBadcast https://40kbadcast.bigcartel.com/ [email protected]

40k Badcast 171 - Engage on One Front

E

Hello, everyone! The jabronis are back with yet another choice cut of warhammer-themed grab-ass! This time Campbell paints the town gulten-free in Salt Lake City, Utah, and Dan spends truly stupid money on food in Nottingham, England! Also, Dan is 40 now. That sucks! Additionally, the lads touch on making a choice to win the game, the Emperor's Dan-pion, and Dan kills a mosquito LIVE ON AIR! Can't miss this one! Or maybe you can, no one is keeping score! https://www.patreon.com/40kBadcast https://40kbadcast.bigcartel.com/ [email protected]

E

Watch out, friends, we've got a hot one comin' in! Joe Kassabian, author, host of the Lions Led by Donkeys podcast and Midwest Icon, joins Tweedle-dee and Tweedle-dum here for a chat about Joe's Warhammer journey so far, why 40k tanks would be immediately obliterated on a modern battlefield, and which flavor of Faygo is the best! Other topics include the wide, wide lord of sports; the patron sait of rickety shitboxes; and a viscous, opaline fluid! It's a can't miss episode, gang!

Did we plan for our 169th episode to be live in front of a "sell-out" (the attendees are sellouts) crowd at NOVA Open 2025? No! But here we are, hot, horny, and ready to answer your burning questions. Join us for a evening of jokes, japes, and jeers, and not necessarily in that order.

40k Badcast 168 - If you skip milk day, you get creamed!

E

Look, gang, Dan has a lot of painting to do before NOVA, so we're not going to be able to do a lot of jokes in this description. Too bad! Here's some shit from the episode: "milk day", chaplains giving good skull, and the realization that Space Wolf players are all piss fetishists. Sorry wolfies! It's canon now! https://www.patreon.com/40kBadcast https://40kbadcast.bigcartel.com/ [email protected]

Campbell went to Tacoma, WA for this year's GW Tacoma Open. Did he bring any of the Tcoma Aroma back with him?! You be the judge! Also, we finally find out what regional accent the Raven Guard posses. You'll be surprised, kid! https://www.patreon.com/40kBadcast https://40kbadcast.bigcartel.com/ [email protected]

40k Badcast 167 - Bricked-Up Whilst Decanting

E

We've said many times that "this is the most unhinged episode yet!" Ther veracity of this statement cannot be proven. But what can be proven is that Dan spends a solid three and one half minutes cry-laughing at the name "Barkin Doggins". Sure, they also talk about Warhammer or some shit, but for real, it's almost four minutes of a middle-aged man losing his shit at his own stupid joke.
