Is anyone sick of hearing about Brandon’s love for Pandemic yet? Well if you are, then this episode ain’t for you.. Even though it’s just a short portion of time, we just can’t get away from mentioning Pandemic!
In this episode, we chat for a bit about beef, Mr. Ed and the crash that almost lost Episode 3. We get to flex our improve skills with some impromptu Desert Island themed fun. Brandon just finds enough time to rub it in Josh’s face that Origins is going to be AWESOME! After the jealousy is too much for Josh to handle, the guys have a chat with some old guy that shuffles his way in to War Room weekly. We then discuss our take on Stockpile from Nauvoo Games. And we close this all off with a discussion (pretty friendly) about how to learn and teach board game rules.
Episode highlights include:
Smells of a Cucumber – Mr Ed – The Great Audacity Crash of 2015 – mmm buttery bread – Beef Sandwich – Jump the Shark – Communist plane crash – Visiting the Pandas – Origins Game Fair – the Cabal House – Old Man aka Grumpy Gramps shuffles in to War Room Studio B – Games of the Stock Market economy CAN be fun – Ever wanted to hear our suggestions for how to learn/teach rules to boardgames?

How have we not killed each other yet?!
We are spending more and more time together and we’re getting more comfortable with one another. As we become more comfortable, we also seem to find additional ways to annoy each other. Regardless, we still show a good amount of respect for our differences as we sit down to discuss our lovely dinner date; our Kickstarter addictions; we get to Dead of Winter featuring Jonathan Gilmour; and we close with a heated discussion regarding Alpha Gamers and how to combat the issue… (if you feel that it’s an issue in your gaming session)
