This week we made lists. Primarily of the games that we don’t think will ever leave our collections. We made some related lists as well.

This week Chris and Fletcher talk about vampires. Well, they barely scratch the surface about vampires anyway. Why?

This week Kitty is back, with some heavy news and a lighter topic. Don't worry it's all good stuff. We're talking about filler games!

Or not.For when it matters, Kitty won and she liked it. It…

This week we look back at the games we played in 2022. What did we play the most? Why? Do games on BGA count? (Of course they do!)

This week Kitty has lost her voice, so Chris and Fletcher talk about the new craze that is Marvel Snap. Yes, it's an app, but it's very tabletop adjacent.

This week talk playing games competitively, like tournaments and such, vs causally where you still want to win but you may not want to compete.
