Oh my, jen and I are in winter wonderland at the Grand Canyon, trying to figure out our new normal, but that doesn't stop the crowd sorcery, so here's me and Alex running you through a ton of crowdfunding games ending soon :)

In addition to covid and flooding and road condition updates, I'll also compare a whole bunch of the best games ever (IMO) against each other to see what comes out on top in this on the road version of The Rankening! 

The 60th R&R&R show was about 40 minutes, but there's an extra 70 minutes of fun hijinks in this extended ep! :)

Here's a new top15 which is the first time that Ruel, Chris and I are all live together, and we had a great time even if the subject matter was a bit sad!

Grant's here once more to tell you about what makes these five games so great :)

Here's the audio version of Alex and me talking about 13 projects ending soon which translates to actually 23 individual games! :)

Doing roundups on the road is a bit tougher than normal, but still, the show must go on and here we are with just shy of 30 games to talk about for the month of February! What did you play? :)

Here's the latest version of the latest R&R where Ruel, Chris and I count down our biggest games that killed other games :)
