Board of Amusement

For the big two-oh, we talk productivity, pen and paper versus screens, and list apps, as well as the game that kept Michael up all night, more D&D 3.5 (mis)adventures, and Gunner’s new campaign!

Warning: There is some uncensored language in this one.

This is the longest episode yet, so buckle up!  Mostly, Gunner talks about his experience branching out to D&D 3.5, but there’s also Hearthstone updates (and the only thing bad enough to get Gunner playing again), all the new games Michael bought in the Steam Chinese New Year sale, and general discussion of schedules and how to make cool stuff.

Gunner and Michael make a lot of excuses as to why they haven’t played many games this week, but nonetheless, bravely record a podcast whose meat is but “a thin strip of bacon.”  A Capella competitions, ways to trick our brains into working, and games that occur IRL!

(Note: Michael would like to apologize for his poor audio quality, and thinks Gunner’s deep voice is sexy as hell).

This episode has some serious audio quality issues… but if you can get past that, we have some really great conversations about Fallout 4, Project M, TF2, and D&D!  Listen, if you dare!
