On this week’s show, Mike, Andy, and Lance take a nostalgic trip through the timeline of airsoft — from its humble beginnings in 1970s Japan to the high-tech, community-driven hobby we know today. Whether you’re a long-time skirmisher or a fresh recruit to the sport, this episode is packed with insights, memories, and a few laughs along the way. We’ll be chatting about how airsoft emerged as a civilian alternative to live firearms, how it spread globally through the 80s and 90s, and how the gear and gameplay evolved into the rich, immersive experiences we enjoy now. The lads will also share their own personal journeys into the hobby — first guns, standout events, awkward loadouts, and all the character-building moments in between. As always, you’ll find our latest news, upcoming events, and gear chat — plus we shine a spotlight on the airsoft community and share your stories too.

On this week’s show, Mike and Andy are diving deep into the world of urban recon - or “recce” for those in the know (though Mike still insists on calling it “recon” thanks to his half-American roots). Urban environments bring a whole different flavour to milsim, and tonight’s conversation explores how to adapt your tactics when the trees are replaced by concrete. From blending in through roleplay and disguise - think maintenance workers, beggars, or just the right kind of nondescript civilian - to setting up observation posts inside buildings, the lads talk through the tools, techniques, and mindset needed to operate unnoticed in dense, man-made terrain. Expect tips on avoiding silhouettes, managing movement, dealing with practicalities like toilets and comms, and some niche tricks for indoor ops. Whether you're prepping for your first city-based milsim or want to try new approaches at your next event, this one’s packed with ideas and grounded insight from the field. No trees required.

Tonight on the November Foxtrot Podcast, we’re locking and loading for a long-overdue catch-up with Randy, callsign "Bones", from the US chapter of One Legion. You may remember him from episode 153, but now he’s back in the AO and ready to drop some fresh knowledge, stories, and updates from stateside MilSim. We'll be talking about what's changed since we last spoke, what events Bones has been involved in, what One Legion USA has planned for the future, and how their unique blend of community, brotherhood, and tactical experience continues to evolve. No doubt we’ll also dive into cross-pond airsoft comparisons and a bit of light-hearted banter, NoFo style. And don’t forget to head over to our website for extra content, discount codes, merch, and more. Whether you're in a plate carrier or rocking a Hawaiian shirt, you're always welcome at the NoFo campfire.

With a last minute adjustment to our scheduling, we're stripping it back and firing from the hip with a fast-paced round of “This or That: Airsoft Edition.” From plate carriers vs chest rigs, pyro vs blank fire, woodland vs urban, to gas vs AEG—we’ll be picking sides and probably arguing about them too. Expect rapid takes, spontaneous rants, and the usual NoFo banter. Don’t forget to check out our website for merch, episode backlogs, discount codes, and more lovely bits and bobs. That’s novemberfoxtrot.co.uk – go on, have a nose!

It’s episode 220 of the November Foxtrot Podcast and this week, we’re taking a deep dive into our own kit cupboards. From the items we never leave behind to the weird and wonderful pieces that have somehow earned a permanent spot in our loadouts, we’ll be chatting through the gear that’s made a difference — and some that probably didn’t! We’ll be sharing the good, the bad and the “why do I even still carry this?” across our setups — including niche kit recommendations, clever little hacks, and a few hilltop rants about gear that just doesn't live up to the hype. Whether you're just getting started or you’ve been refining your rig for years, there might be something to steal... ahem, we mean learn from our personal experiences. As always, don’t forget to check out our website novemberfoxtrot.co.uk for bonus content, merch, discount codes and more NoFo goodness. Your next favourite bit of kit might just be a click away!

This week on the November Foxtrot Podcast, we’re excited to welcome the organisers of UK Airsoft Ladies (UKAL) to talk about their unique, empowering event: Girls Weekend Away (GWA). Designed by women, for women, this June’s three-day weekend provides an immersive airsoft experience - complete with rental kit, camping, and a social atmosphere centered on inclusivity.
