00:00 - Forgetting names and confusing idioms.
03:10 - A graduation, but whose graduation?
06:10 - Making rum, plus the sweetly thematic Fort from Leder Games, in which you pretend to be kids building bases, using pizza and toys to curry favour with Icky and Sticky.
17:44 - Al's FINEST wine and socially distanced martial arts.
21:52 - From humble packaging comes something we had a ton of fun with; Coiledspring’s Anomia is an extremely good party game.
30:50 - Twin It. Love it.
33:11 - Enola Holmes is fantastic, and Millie Bobby Brown brings a welcome level of handiness to the character.
38:42 - Back to school.
41:10 - Our time with Basic Fantasy Role-Playing Game pretty much started with a total party wipe. And it. Was. Awesome. It’s glorious.
All that, and the wonderful Richard from the We’re Not Wizards podcast (@werenotwizards), with Dan (@ThisDanFrost), Kris (@DigitalStrider), Sam (@MrSamTurner), and Peter (@XeroXeroXero).

00:00 - The Home Alone Meal Deal, and first movies.
09:13 - Hotshot Racing looks and sounds great, the racing model is spot on, but you’ll want to put most of your time into the time trial mode, and we’ll tell you why. Also, go watch Get Indie Gaming.
20:57 - Every Breath You Take. Every Slice You Make.
27:45 - Pendulum from Stonemaier Games (them what did Viticulture) is a “rollercoaster” of a board game, a superb experiment in the worker placement genre, and perhaps the perfect board game cafe game.
45:39 - Eulogy For Brannigans.
48:48 - Stay Cool is from the same folk that brought you Decrypto, and if that’s not enough to sell you on it, then you’ll just have to listen to the podcast for more insight into why we like it, I guess.
All that, and Adele, with Kris (@DigitalStrider), Sam (@MrSamTurner), and Peter (@XeroXeroXero).
