In this semi-cooperative episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down podcast, Tom and Matt are talking about two very unusual games! First up is Voices In My Head's handsome-man-sentencing, followed by a small course of Decorum; a passive-aggressive living simulator. We also chat a few nice words about SHUX (and the carpets within) as well as Matt’s review of the Quacks expansion.
Have a great weekend, everybody!

It doesn't quite work the same, but what do you expect when Neilan's not present? Speaking of presents, it's Mark's birthday so the rest of the crew celebrate with a parade of (don't call them hot) questions, where they invent expansions, and save the planet. Before we get older, we talk about Time Barons, and The Key: Sabotage at Lucky Llama Land.

Sarah is still riding high from this week's Sydney Game Day and is joined by Jules and Mike on this episode of the Board Game BBQ Podcast. Earlier this week, Jules was disembowelled and lived to tell the tale in Kingdom Death Monster, Mike went looking for booty in Dead Reckoning, and Sarah has been working on her sound effects. Meanwhile the Sizzling Games this week are Mind MGMT: The Psychic Espionage Game, In The Hall Of The Mountain King, and Veiled Fate.
In the Board Game Bracket we settle the last match-up, Clans of Caledonia vs Too Many Bones, before we cue up the next battle: Eclipse: 2nd Ed vs Marvel Champions. To make sure your favourite goes through to the next round make sure you vote on our socials.
Finally, in Swear An Oath, Mike played a bunch of Welcome To The Moon, Jules has scheduled his KDM miniatures over Easter, and Sarah is still trying to convince her son to play Jaws of the Lion with her. New oaths include Cloudspire (Jules), Townsfolk Tussle (Mike), and Railroad Ink (Sarah).

In this electric episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down podcast Tom and Quinns are going toe-to-toe in a battle for the ages, fighting the corner of the game that they like, and the other person… likes too… but less…
On this podcast we’re chatting about our lengthy first impressions of Crescent Moon and our much snappier first impressions of Bear Raid, as well as literally about 20 seconds of talking about the Mind MGMT app - so little, in fact, that I haven’t even timestamped it!
Have a great weekend, everybody!
