We're so thrilled to share with you a very special, super-sized episode of Board Game Cantina dedicated to Disney's Galactic Starcruiser. It's hard to do justice to the powerful life experience the Lady H can create, but we tried to capture some of what she means to us and to so many of you. Every episode of our show is a labor of love, but the past 4 months since we first experienced the Halcyon firsthand have been a chance to push our storytelling (and one *very* warm laptop) to new limits in order to offer up the most heartfelt, thoughtful discussion we could possibly…muster. If you enjoy geeking out about the Starcruiser as much as we do, you've come to the right place.

Join us and our guests, Keifer and Jennifer Woodruff, as we mix up our take on the Gem of Ryloth cocktail served onboard the Starcruiser and play a custom Halcyon-themed tabletop scenario that extends one of the ship's most thrilling storylines.

We finally made it to May the 4th! We're so excited to share our very first launch episode with you! Join us for a deep dive into the Star Wars card game, Sabacc, and learn along with us as we build a complex galactic cocktail called the Photon Fizzle and explore its origins in Star Wars lore. We packed this episode as full of geek culture discussion and handy tips as we possibly could and hope you have as much fun watching or listening as we did putting it together.

Board Game Cantina has been a labor of love and we're so grateful to family and friends who have supported this ambitious project and to the incredible podcasters in the community who have been so generous in sharing their knowledge and encouragement to help us get rolling!
