It's 2026. Sometimes we just effing wing it. So, we found Superfight in one of our fave thrift shops and between here and there, finally took a crack at it and discovered a mad opportunity to combine it with Cards Against Humanity. Here's the result, and yeah, as they say, you get what you pay fo…

I literally GASPED when Shane and I found this one on the shelf at our local thrift-- and gasped again when we found 2 anniversary cards addressed to Scott and Sharon on their 12th wedding anniversary, because guess what-- we are also celebrating our 12 wedding anniversary today! Pretty sure this …

Part 2 of the "end of the world", and if you've seen that doc on Netflix about AI and trying to be an optimistic person-- you know what? I'm still not too concerned about the personal impact. I have more thoughts, of course, and if you want to enjoy a questionably "fun" end-of-…

Who knew that the end of the world could be such fun? Creators Justus and Andrew Meyers (with the developmental help of Chris Svehla and Eric McCoy) have birthed a game that miiiiight involve a little too much math but just enough evolution. We both really loved it and think the "replayability…

Well, it's just the two of us, so I don't think the word "party" applies. However, we did have a fun time, and continue to wish for more friends with which to get elevated and play games. Oh, the good old days. Here's Stanley (otherwise known as "Handsome Stan" by the ladies at…

Well, this one really stretched our brains, and we had a great time discussing and playing. My continued thanks to the Borger family for taking this one to Goodwill so we could buy it for like, 5 bucks. A great time was had, and I'm really glad that we recorded it because while we had a great tim…

Well, we've finally made the leap to more video, in fact, we've finally set up a YouTube channel as well, and figured Mysterium was the perfect game to launch it with. (Don't forget that you can find all episodes on The Podcast App, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts as well. ) Yes, we had a lot of fun wi…

No scoring, no competition, just gentle banter and a combination of 2 different versions of a fabulous game, Balderdash. Truly, it's a fabulous game for a party of at least 3-5 goofballs, so I hope y'all can find a copy at your local thrift, and also have about 3-5 friends that may want to play. F…

It's actually the Baby Boomer edition from Trivial Pursuit, not "boomer" as in "oh no, it's a boomer heading my way and I can see their opinions on their face because they have need therapy for at least 50 years". Looks like I might have a bias. At any rate, we didn't do horribl…
