Everyday Meeple

For episode 4 we venture into the on-going conversation about "gateway" games. What were ours, what are "the big three", what are some new ones and seriously, what does that even mean really?

Macy and I were probably both a little to sleepy to try this again but she really wanted to. So we did. We probably shouldn't have though, but again, why not. This time around she wanted to talk about Sleeping Queens again and Mystery Garden.

Without preparing and without much sleep Steve and I decided to get a podcast together while Dave is home visiting in Newfoundland. WE ramble on about a bunch of stuff. Talisman, Dad Joke Face-Off, 7-Wonders Duel, Isle of Trains, Welcome To..., Hexagony and a whole lot more.

This is it, this is Steve's Thunderstone Episode where we talk about our love of Thunderstone in all it's incarnations and how Thunderstone Quest is the proverbial cherry on top of the legacy that Mike Elliott created. We also break in our new mixer, it is much smaller than the Thunderstone box and is almost as fun.

In this very first episode, my 5 year old daughter and I talk about some of her favorite games, and get distracted. It actually went pretty well for a first try. We try and stay focused on the game Incan Gold, her very favorite right now, plus we kind of talk about a few other things, like D&D (Pathfinder) and Sleeping Queens. Plus she mentions a few aspirations and has fun with the delay effect. I had a great time. That's what counts right.

In the second episode between our "regular" epsiodes we ramble on about a few games and what have you. Mostly we focus on Caverna by Uwe Rosenberg, Friday by Friedemann Friese, and 51st State by Ignacy Trzewiczek and that naturally leads us to bits about some of our favourites like Terraforming Mars and Race for the Galaxy, but that's what rambling is all about right?

In this, our 3 effort, we stumble around our microphones discussing the game Terraforming Mars and what we like about it as well as some other stuff they may or may not relate.

We decided we should just keep talking between figuring out what we should talk about next so we have decided to fill the space in between with casual talks about more board game stuff. This epsiode we talk about the Board Game Stats app.

In our first, dare we say, haphazard adventure into the podcast universe we discuss the 7.5lb box of good times that is Wasteland Express Delivery Service by Pandasaurus Games.
