You have to be where your audience is, and also, Mark hopes that a link to a video can serve in lieu of his having to travel to see anyone ever again.

Episode 323: Awkward Guests, The Light in the Mist

10. Dezember 2024 um 00:30

Episode 323: Awkward Guests, The Light in the Mist.

On this week’s Episode, Dan and Dana have to take the reins at short notice while Adrian is recuperating.  Dan has been trying to get rid of all his ‘midden’ as a Scottish Farmer in Skara Brae, only to find he is perhaps better suited to being Captain Obvious or a super sleuth in Awkward Guests.  Meanwhile, Dana has been mulling over whether her daughter’s fear of electrocution has trumped her love of Brie in My Favourite Things.  This of course comes a distant second to a good-looking tarot deck with a twist in The Light in the Mist.

 

There's also the Question of the Pod, Swear an Oath, and all of the usual shenanigans you've come to expect from the Board Game BBQ Podcast.

 

New Question of the Pod: Stuck for stocking stuffer ideas?  Give us your recommendations!

Awkward Guests: (42:55)
