Gonarch's Lair episode 22.5: The Game of IRL

In part two of our first episode of 2017, Ross and Thom talk almost exclusively about the board games they played during their youth and adolescence, and the favourites of their friends, family and fans alike. We discuss the definition of a board game, their assembly and maintenance, losing and breaking parts, the Pop-O-Matic, and the almost unbelievable origin of draughts. We also discuss Board James, chemistry kits, the last day of term, the manipulation of IMDB ratings, and our hosts choose another retro game for the next head-to-head highscore challenge. Missing pieces include Thom declaring unity and Ross declaring war.
