  • EP 46: Roll Playing Games
    In this episode...we go back to our roots... Books, Dice, Character Sheets... and loads of imagination... that's all we needed for those few precious hours spent with friends each weekend, where you could shed the events of the last week and take on the persona of someone from another time and another place.

    From a post-apocalyptic world where the lines between dimensions have crossed, to a fantasy realm filled with ancient dragons and slow moving drawves, or a modern world where legends and myths take physical form, or a world filled with Kobolds in life-long service to King Torg, however long that life may be.

    No matter the character or the adventure they embark on, each one ends up becoming part of who we are after a while.

  • EP 41: Games That Travel Well
    With summer right around the corner, and thoughts of vacation starting to fill our day dreams, it's time to talk about why size really does matter... at least in board games. On this episode We tell you all about some of our favorites games to throw into that carry-one. From creating treasure maps in hopes of finding gold coins and palm trees, to matching bright colored shapes on dark wooden blocks, hoping to make a set of 6 before your opponent does, to a deck of 30 cards that requires some heavy cooperative deduction, and finally a small worker placement game made up of cards and very inedible mints.

    "We tackle the dredded timer....
    We must first work together to provide humanitarian aid to countries in need -- food, water, vaccines and other supplies, all while working 35,000 feet in the air!
    Next, as a member of an adventurous pirate crew, we must complete dangerous missions in the shortest possible time frame, all for the honor of being crowned the ""Admiral of the Black"", the most feared pirate ship in the Caribbean.
    Finally on dry, solid ground, the local news has tasked ordinary citizens such as ourselves to save the city from space aliens and spider robots. Who better to answer the call than a BBQ Dad and a very Good Dog!
    And finally, we delve deep into the dungeons, in a race against time to defeat all the monsters inside!
    So lets flip over that sand timer, and get started...."
