For our first show of 2024, we revisit our earlier discussion about box sizes for games, but not before we check in on everybody's adventures over the holidays. Tom visits a game club in Tampa, and we share some Roses, Thorns, and Hula Hoops.

Heraclitus, an ancient Greek philosopher, claimed that you never step in the same river twice; for it is not the same river and you are not the same person. Such as it is with games! They are reprinted and thus reborn, all along some blurred spectrum of redesign spanning from carbon copy all the way to entirely new design.
Let us not forget Heraclitus' student Cratylus, who evidently thought Heraclitus some kind of squish, insofar as he is credited with countering that you cannot step into the same river once.

Happy new year everybody, we know that after a big night out and back to work you'll be hungry for some more bloopers. Well you are in luck as we've dug around the vaults of episodes 31-36 this time which features our old player Ian. Do you fancy listening to poorly sung Sting songs, Becky’s five guys and cheesy bangers and more about Kerley’s dinosaur fetish. Nope didn't think so but that's what you've got. It gets weird again as we present Can I Get A Rewind Volume 6…yep we know volume 6.

"This here's a jam for all the gamers
Tryin' to do what those rulebooks offer
Get shot down 'cause you're overzealous
Take too long, opponents get jealous
Ok, smarty, go to a party
Games are on the menu for everybody
You wanna play a game that's more complexer
But you're standin' on the wall like you was Poindexter
A game is laid out, one not played out
The options unfold and your mind just spins out
They say you should take your turn or get removed
So come on, gamer, and just bust a move"
-Young MC, noted foe of analysis paralysis

Opener: Welcome to Season 20(!!!) of this little podcast
I didn't make it to BGGcon last November, but several of my buddies did. Two of them, Greg Pettit and Dave O'Connor, join me on the podcast to talk about their experience there. For almost half the time we talk about about everything BUT the games (the venue, the crowd, the bazaar, the puzzle hunt, etc)...and then we get into a lot of games. We talk about Heat, Anunnaki, Wandering Towers, Bristol 1350, 1902 Melies, Blood on the Clocktower, Oak, Tricky Badger, Match of the Century, That's Not A Hat, Rebel Princess, Rollet, Armadillo, At The Office, Voodoo Prince, Gang of Dice, Babylonia, Havalandi, Pax Pamir, Turncoats, Cosmoctopus, Nemesis, Cosmic Frog, and The Thing! Whew! Closer: Playing games with family (especially party games) using whatever "rules" and "scoring" are most fun -Mark
