Shelf Stable: A Board Gaming Podcast

Listen Later

*Give or take the games we mentioned before the main topic.

As Tom begins to close in on Kenny's position, a wild Eize Basa of Twitter (RIP) and now Bluesky fame (https://bsky.app/profile/eizebasa.baby) appears and distracts Tom with a fantastic list of games that every family is sure to enjoy during their holiday gatherings. No need for family arguments when you've got board games to play!

8:06 - Win, Lose, or Banana (2009, Chris Cieslik, Asmadi)

11:34 - Twilight Struggle (2005, Ananda Gupta, Jason Matthews, GMT)
