    The Marvels, General Orders: World War II, and Davy Jones’ Locker: The Kraken Wakes - Ep188

    The Marvels, General Orders: World War II, and Davy Jones’ Locker: The Kraken Wakes - Ep188

    Jumping deep into Davy Jones’ Locker: The Kraken Wakes after PudKat Games’ successful Kickstarter, the warboys scope out Osprey Games’ General Orders: World War II, and going intergalactic with The Marvels, and the incredible Mints or Mince from Big Potato Games. All that, and a lot of talk about potatoes, on Ep188.

    Critical: Sanctuary - Season 1, Jokkmokk: The Winter Market, and Fly Home! - Ep187

    Critical: Sanctuary - Season 1, Jokkmokk: The Winter Market, and Fly Home! - Ep187

    We get scammed by sellers on Temu counterfeiting boardgames by “Oink Games”, “Hasbro”, and “Mattel”, get roleplaying with Critical: Sanctuary - Season 1 from Hachette, sip tea at Davenports of Cheshire, go shopping at Jokkmokk: The Winter Market from WizKids, and Fly Home! and Fish ’n’ Flip with Helvetiq. All that, and sunshine during the cold, on Ep187.

    The Fall of the House of Usher, EXIT - The Curse of Ophir, and Twilight Imperium - Ep186

    The Fall of the House of Usher, EXIT - The Curse of Ophir, and Twilight Imperium - Ep186

    We (unsuccessfully) try and break The Curse, spend 12 full hours playing the epic space opera Twilight Imperium: Third Edition from Fantasy Flight Games, get locked in a puzzling hotel in EXIT - The Curse of Ophir from Nementic Games and USM, and scare ourselves silly with Mike Flanagan’s latest The Fall of the House of Usher. All that, and Big Selenite.

    They Cloned Tyrone, Undaunted: Battle of Britain, and Marcel the Shell with Shoes On - Ep185

    They Cloned Tyrone, Undaunted: Battle of Britain, and Marcel the Shell with Shoes On - Ep185

    We take a trip into the mysterious in the dark sci-fi They Cloned Tyrone, chat about the completely endearing Marcel the Shell with Shoes On, and if that weren’t enough, it’s off to war with Undaunted: Battle of Britain from Osprey Games. All that, and sleeping in Deep Heat, on Ep185.

    Batman: The Audio Adventures, Monster 12, and Troika! - Ep184

    Batman: The Audio Adventures, Monster 12, and Troika! - Ep184

    It is Autumn. We chirp on about Troika! from the Melsonian Arts Council, head back in time to the Stone Age (board game), take a look at the Open and Play series from Kosmos with particular attention centred on Monster 12 and Allie Gator, and try to resist growling “I’m Batman” while chatting about Batman: The Audio Adventures. All that, and more talk about lawnmowers than is strictly necessary, on Ep184.

    Lacuna, Regicide, Townscaper, and Benji Corless from Osprey Games - Ep183

    Lacuna, Regicide, Townscaper, and Benji Corless from Osprey Games - Ep183

    Chips. You love them. We love them. This episode talks about them. But when we’re not talking chips, we’re talking: Lacuna, a delightful 2 player abstract game from CMYK; Townscaper, Oskar Stålberg’s relaxing and deeply creative build-em-up; Benji from Osprey’s lovely solo recommendations Miru and VOID 1680 AM; and the challenging cooperative deck crawler Regicide from Badgers From Mars. All that, plus hospital radio, on Ep183.

Just a lovely podcast

I’ve been listening for a couple of years now and the best way I can describe this is just an hour of listening to four friends having a great conversation and a catch up about the games, tv, films and more that be they’ve been enjoying. It’s really welcoming and warm and I just want to join the conversation.

Such a wonderful thing to listen to each week

This podcast stands out for me in terms of being one of the most relaxing things to listen to -the timbre of the hosts' voices, the calming sound effects, and the excellent chilled chat about a wide variety of topics makes it a pleasure to listen to each week.

Highly recommendend for a more general gaming/geeky style of podcast that feels like you are just catching up with some friends over tea - thank you gents, and keep it up!
