It’s that time again – we recommend games for everyone on your gift list.

10-4 is one of many ten-codes, used for clarity and brevity in Morse code & voice communications. 10-4 means “received” or “acknowledged”.

We talk about the sunk cost fallacy. Just because you’ve already invested resources into something doesn’t tell us if it’s worth that next bit of resources to see it through.

If you need a sounding board for your life’s financial decisions, go to firstmovefinancial.com/familygamers and set up a time today to talk to First Move Financial – for free!

Welcome to our newest community members! You can join the community on Facebook.

Stop by and say hello!

We asked what YOU think makes a good gift when you’re given a board game.

A few of you answered on the #backtalk channel on the Discord and in our Facebook community.

… and yes, we did review Box of Rocks, a silly game.

Anyone interested in sharing some recipes for us to try out?

We race through all the games on our 2025 gift guide.

A friendly reminder to our listeners: many of the games on the list we received at no cost, and we do earn a (tiny) commission from the Amazon links. But every single game on that list, we have played, enjoyed, and would buy and give (or have already bought & given) to our friends and family.

We’re heading to PAX Unplugged this week. We’ll be teaching Castle Panic on Sunday morning (11/23)!

What is your favorite thing to do at conventions?
