Cubes have come to the No Cube Zone! It's a time of dismay for Coniff, as Jordan and Rippee flood the show with cube ridden games. Don't worry, we're still talking our experiences and the people we've shared them with, things just may have taken a slight euro turn. The No Cube Zone is full of laughs, banter, and an easy going look at the games we love to play.

    Goodbye for Now

    After much deliberation and discussion, we have decided to put the show on pause. We thank you all for joining us on this journey of Board Games, and for the many of you who invited us to their table, or shared in our joy of the hobby over the course of this past year and a half. We don't know what the future may hold, but know that once Jordan returns, the wheels will start spinning again and we'll find a way to get back into your ears. Thank you so much!

    Goodbye for Now

    Happy Holidays from The No Cube Zone!

    "'Twas the week before Christmas, when all through the studio not a podcast was stirring, not even the talk shows The mics were hung on their boom arms with care, Dormant and silent just like the chairs Jordan and Rippee were nestled snug in their beds, While visions of board games danced in their heads, And Swampy and Shiloh, chatting late into the night Their TVs on and playing, dead by daylight. When out on the roof there arose such a clatter, Coniff sprang from his Xbox to see what was the matter! To the window he flew, peering out onto the snow Maybe Santa had come and brought a new episode..." In this special holiday episode, Jordan and Coniff team up with Shiloh and Swampy from GG Party Chat to bring you an extra dose of holiday cheer. Happy Holidays! First Community/Listener Holiday Greetings - 33:50 Second Community Listener Holiday Greetings - 1:32:13 A special thanks to all of you who contributed holiday greetings for this episode! The No Cube Zone would not be here without your support.

    Happy Holidays from The No Cube Zone!
