Episode 194: Dune Imperium, 1862: Railway Mania in the Eastern Counties, Rajas of the Ganges
It's full steam ahead as Mitch stokes the fires and tries to keep Episode 194 on track, which isn't easy with Def and Adrian on board as well.
The lads discuss games based on other intellectual properties, the ongoing fascination of trains in boardgames, and revisiting a classic.
In the Board Game Bracket we settle the last match-up, Targi vs Anachrony, before we cue up the next battle: Quacks of Quedlinburg vs Too Many Bones. To make sure your favourite goes through to the next round make sure you vote on our socials.
Finally, in Swear An Oath, Mitch and Def both played more burncycle, Def also played Andean Abyss with Mitch and Conor, while Adrian still hasn't erased the errors of his butchered phoenix mini. New oaths include On Mars: Alien Invasion (Def), Pandemic: Reign of Cthulu (Mitch), and a solo playthrough of The Trancontinental (Adrian).

#184 - A Wibbly Wobbly Egg (Live!)
Live and happening, it's a podcast! When I edit podcasts, I usually slice out the bits where I sound silly, or ask if it's 'time to talk about Rats' too many times; but in the live format, they have to stay. On this very special episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down Podcast, Matt and his two adult children are talking about a bunch of games! We've got the absolute excess of Wonderlands War, the snakes-and-ladders-worker-placement of First Rat and the secret sneaky bidding of Dreadful Circus alongside plenty of healthy chat about a Wibbly Wobbly Egg. Enjoy!

#229: The Positives of Being Negative
There's a lot of discourse lately about the pros and cons of negative board game coverage, and so of course we thought we ought to weigh in. Is there value in negative criticism versus positive, or should there be a balance between the two? Before we take the good with the bad, we talk about Homeworlds, Ave Caesar, and Founders of Teotihuacan.
