In this month's news I pull Steve out of his sick bed to review our resolutions and how successful we were. We answer your questions and thank a raft of new patrons.
In this now annual special bonus episode, Ambie facilitates while her two guests talk about some of their favorite games they've played recently, including Stuffed Fables and Teddy's Colors & Shapes. They then talk about some more of their favorite games and why they like them. For a video version of the podcast with subtitles, click here.

We take no time off for Boxing Day here at SVWAG, a day so named because according to the common law of the King (still feels weird saying that) citizens of the Commonwealth are permitted to punch someone in the face on this day only. It's like a pugilistic The Purge but with the metric system and occasional poutine. The news this week features a number of exemplary game titles. Many a stellar game has crossed our paths purely on the strength of its name, whereas others are so generic as to defy searching. Go ahead, find R on Board Game Geek, or the game Quest. I dare you.

On this surprisingly colonic episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down Podcast, Tom and Quinns tackle two fantastic games... that one of us wishes were just a smidge better. That's right, it's the Undaunted: Stalingrad Spoilercast, and the HEAT: Pedal to the Metal... praisecast? These are two games we've reviewed recently and both think are just peachy. Enjoy!
