Alright... it's a bit different this week. For Season 2 I am MIXING IT UP! That's right instead of just a review of a game I've got a special guest and soon-to-be famous game designer, Darren Reckner! He's still in the process so it's TOP SECRET, but he sat down with me to share his story about designing a game and pitching it successfully to a big publisher.

You'll also want to listen to the end for our great addition to a popular boardgame! 🏰
