Jazzy Josh Raymer, Zac Newton, Alex Heichelbech, and the illustrious Felix Perrone host a reunion podcast to discuss their time in the NCDA and how much the game have changed.

Wow, it’s been a little bit since the last formal podcast. With a proposal by Kevin Bailey to reformat Nationals, Mario Romanelli and Zigmas Maloni are joined by new President Hunter Ford to discus the proposal. We also recap the Akron Leadership Conference.

With four new teams expanding the League’s boundaries, Mario Romanelli introduces the idea of a 6v6 event happening every four years. Mario, Felix  and Zigmas discuss. This uses extra audio from last week’s recording session, so intros and outros are the same as last week.

Mario, Felix, and Zig discuss Stevenson’s first wins and how they’ve adapted to the new 12 v 12 ruleset, then launch into a topical medical concern discussion and how our rules have evolved to limit injury potential.

As we enter the voting season that defines our rulebook, policy, and bylaws for the upcoming season, Hunter and Zig took some time to discuss a couple of the proposals that made it onto the ballot.
