Oops, All Card Games!

It’s a rambly wander through a whole bunch of different boxes… right here.

Quinns' Sad Mafia
In this lightly depressed episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down Podcast, Tom and Quinns are having a chat about the games they've played recently on a rainy Thursday afternoon. First up is the team-based Mafia crunch-em-up La Famiglia: The Great Mafia War - a game we have mixed feelings about. We then take a trip through a roleplaying game about Superheroes (Masks) and a deckbuilding game about Star Wars (Star Wars: The Deckbuilding Game).
Have a great weekend, everybody!

We Tried (and Failed) To Review Mahjong
In this complete failure of a Shut Up & Sit Down Podcast, Quintin Smith and Tom Brewster are coming to you, hats in hand, to apologise profusely for not making a robust and fully-featured video review of the ancient game of Mahjong. In this episode, we talk about Mahjong, our experiences playing it for review, and why it didn’t quite make its way onto your screens!
Have a great weekend, everybody! -

Have a great weekend, everybody!

A PAX Redux!
In this mildly nostalgic episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down Podcast, Matt and Ava are casting their eyes back to PAX Unplugged… to re-explain some of the games we goofed up the first time. ‘Scharfing’ Sauces in Sauscharf, ‘Deliverering’ Pizzas in Psychic Pizza Deliverers Go To The Ghost Town, and acting like a total ‘Shark’ in… Shark!
Enjoy!
Have a great weekend, everybody!

Customer Reviews
Favorite boardgame podcast
All of the SU&SD content is whimsical and passionate and intelligent and enjoyable. Highly recommended.
Losing interest
I’ve been a fan of the show for a while, but their banter is getting a bit salty.. hope they bring in some new voices (maybe some more diversity? Diversity in game tastes?)
The general vibe I get is aggressive gamer and it’s worn on me.
very good
I enjoy
