Welcome to Episode 71 of The Modelgeeks Podcast!
In this episode, the Modelgeeks discuss what they are in work on, what new items are out there that they may have picked up, and generally what’s going on in the hobby from the perspective of a bunch of primarily model airplane builders.
For the main topic we sit down with Rudy and Danielle of LionHeart Hobby in Kyle TX for a talk about what motivated them to take the leap into opening a brick-and-mortar hobby store at a time when, at least in the U.S., such shops are on the decline. Hmmm, maybe they’re on to something???
