Before we jump into our next pairing, we are here with a topic episode to talk about what we are playing and reading during the COVID-19 (aka Coronavirus) pandemic. We are joined this week by Jordan, who was part of our Meddling Tentacles pairing.

In Illinois (where we live) and Wisconsin (where Jordan lives), there are shelter in place orders and strong recommendations to socially isolate during this crisis. Even after work from home duties, we all find ourselves with far more free time than before. In this episode, we talk about how we are keeping ourselves entertained and what kinds of books and games we are gravitating towards in these banana-pants times.
