Summary
It's been a long time, but this episode was recorded with us all live in the same room! In other words, we were all WORKING in the same PLACE, which may give you a hint as to the topic of this episode (if you haven't, you know, read the title already). We learned fun things like what game Sandi would rather bleed from the eyes than play, what game makes Joe feel like "a giant, raging jerk the entire game," and that Brian still can't get his co-hosts' names right. Also, have some non-audio content: The original Bus board, which is...striking. A meme which Brian replicated perfectly during recording - none of you could see it, but trust me, he nailed it. Several lovely Tzolk'in wheels painted by the very talented Robyn Tatu. Some of the very cool squad bases from Outlive. As always, we appreciate your listening and would love to hear your comments on any or all of these items, and especially a review on iTunes if you have the time and inclination!
