In this panoramic episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down podcast, Matt and Tom are back in action, ready to talk about a little heap of cardboard that’s been growing in the corner over the festive break; it grows a little every time you look away, and we’re hiring someone to take care of it.
On this podcast you can hear about the ever-rolling Dice Realms, the ever-sinking Atlantis Rising (2nd Edition) and the ever-expensive Q.E. A bunch of games that we’re keen on, but not… that keen on. Wahoo!
And we're back! The holiday extravaganza is over, and it's back to business as usual around here. And what better way to get back into the swing of things than with some h-h-hot questions! Before that, we catch up on our holidays apart, with tales about the games that we played with our loved ones, including The Siege of Runedar, Snakesss, and Time Bomb Evolution.

Scott Smith, designer of Dungeon Drop, discusses how to design games by starting with the components. Scott has become a master at this, and it’s an interesting way to approach design that often begins with theme or a mechanism.
Eric joins Suzanne and Mandi as they discuss Awkwright The Card Game, What The Heck, Quacks expansion The Alchemists, The Adventures of Robin Hood, Orange Juice expansion for Bullet <3, and Berried Treasure. The pie of the show is full of games we haven't played in more than 5 years, but really want to.
This week’s guest is the head of Hachette Board Games UK, Flavien Loisier. We talk about growing up in France, the differences between French and British culture and starting a board game company…but which games did he choose?
