Episode 55 - Mike, Mitch & Dan's Top 10 Games of All-Time!
We've saved the best until last. It's time for the Top 10s for 2020 from Mike, Mitch and Dan. It's the Zombie King, the solo player, and the family man - and with three Top 10s that may surprise you.
We also launch another Board Game Bracket: Great Western Trail vs Dinosaur Island. It's basically Jeff Goldblum in Jurassic Park vs Billy Crystal in City Slickers. Cretaceous vs Cows. Brontosaurus vs Bovine. Make sure you hit up our socials to cast your vote and make sure your favourite gets through to the next round!
And finally in Swear An Oath, the lads make another mess of things, with oaths unfulfilled and no consideration to what oaths will be next. Honestly, this is what happens when Steve hands the reins over to someone else!!
**Apologies to everyone hoping to view the YouTube video of this episode. Due to technical difficulties we are unable to bring you the video version. Hope you still enjoy the episode!

Episode 51 - Special Guest: Phil Walker-Harding, Lowlands, Campy Creatures, Spicy, Onitama
It's an All Aussie Adventure this episode as we welcome Phil Walker-Harding to the show. Phil is the award-winning Sydney-based designer of games such as Sushi Go, Imhotep, Barenpark, and the soon-to-be-released Cloud City. Phil shares with us his experiences in the Australian board gaming industry, where the inspiration for some of his games comes from, how he approaches game design, and what games he might have on the horizon.
In our Sizzling Games segment, Jules has been protecting sheep in the Lowlands , Dan has been dealing with Campy Creatures, Phil likes his card games to be Spicy, and Steve has been getting back to basics with Onitama.
In our Boardgame Bracket we settle the fight between Everdell and Codenames, before setting up a new match-up with Champions of Midgard vs Spirit Island. It's a spirited battle but there can only be one champion. Make sure you vote for your favourite on our socials to get it through to the next round!
Finally in Swear and Oath, has Jules bitten off more than he can chew with swearing to play Feudum? Will Dan ever play Teotihuacan, or will Loot of Lima steal the limelight? Can Steve get Mariposas to the table? OR will Phil honor his oath to the podcast Gods and play Trails of Tucana? Stay tuned... same BBQ time, same BBQ podcast.
Thanks again to Phil Walker-Harding for joining us on this episode. Follow along with Phil's adventures on his Twitter https://twitter.com/pwalkerharding

Episode 49 - Special Guest: Stephen Buonocore, Pandemic Legacy Season 1, The Quacks of Quedlinburg, Imperial Settlers: Rise of the Empire, Architects of the West Kingdom
In what could possibly be Conor's last episode when Sarah hears it, the team is joined by the recently-retired president of Stronghold Games Stephen Buonocore. It's undeniably one of our best episodes as he shares with us what he's been up to in retirement, the process of publishing games, what he's been playing lately, and his involvement in the Jack Vasel Memorial Fund.
In our Sizzling Games segment, Mike is the next team member to wade into Pandemic Legacy Season 1 and is loving the journey so far. Stephen has been stirring the pot in The Quacks of Quedlinburg, Conor has been building his empire in Imperial Settlers: Rise of the Empire, and Steve is continually impressed by Architects of the West Kingdom.
In the Board Game Bracket we announce the winner from the recent Gaia Project vs Too Many Bones battle. And then, in a Board Game Bracket first, Conor defends Root against the publisher of Terraforming Mars. The gloves come off on this battle, as they both go for a TKO.
Finally in Swear an Oath, Steve got Isle of Cats to the table with his sons, and swears to play Barrage. After playing Rise of Empires, Conor swears to play Paladins of the West Kingdom. Mike failed to fulfill his Big Easy Busking oath, so he dutifully doubles-down with Imaginarium, and stuns everyone with a hidden talent. But, to show us all up, Stephen swears an oath to play the mammoth game - Twilight Imperium 4th Edition.

And the fun doesn't stop there! Starla and Mik stick around and share their Sizzling Game with us: Parks. It's a beautiful game from Henry Audubon and Keymaster Games. Meanwhile Dan has building towers and casting spells in The Towers of Arkhanos, Mike has been herding cats on Isle of Cats, and Sarah has her head in the clouds with Forbidden Sky.

Sarah, Def and Adrian are joined by Perth-based illustrator and graphic designer Ian O'Toole. Ian shares with us some of his experiences with Eagle-Gryphon Games, collaborating with Vital Lacerda, and offers some advice for those interested in illustrating board games.
In our Sizzling Games segment, Ian has been solving murders (or framing someone else!) in First Class: All Aboard The Orient Express, Def has fallen in love with Pipeline, Adrian has been dreaming of Steam Punk ever since he got to playtest Weather Machine, and Sarah has been card drafting and building castles in Between Two Castles of Mada King Ludwig
In the Board Game Bracket, we resolve Brass: Birmingham vs Mansions of Madness. And once Adrian stops talking about Mansions of Madness we can finally tee up our next battle: Cosmic Encounter vs Everdell.
Finally, in Swear An Oath, Def completed two oaths (Architects of the West Kingdom & D-Day The Dice Game) and swears an oath to play Clinic: Deluxe Edition, a game Ian worked on in 2019. And Ian gets in on the action by swearing to play Endangered and get it off his shelf of shame.

Episode 43 - Spot it!, Teotihuacan, Pandemic Legacy Season 2
They say never work with kids or animals. Well, we put that to the test on this episode as we hand the show over to our kids to tell us about their favourite games.
In Sizzling Games, Dan has been trying to work out the maths behind Spot It!, Steve has been building a tribute to the Gods in Teotihuacan, and Adrian can't tell us anything about Pandemic Legacy Season 2.
Our Topic of the Week is kids games for 5-9yr olds. First, we enlist Finn, Jack and Rafael to talk about their favourite games, but manage to wrestle control of the show before things get out of hand. Then we settle in to discuss some of the best kids games out there on the market, what to look for in a kid's game, and how to find the right game for your kids.
In Round 2 of the Boardgame Bracket we settle the winner from the 5 Minute Dungeon vs Spirit Island match-up before Mitch pops in to defend Too Many Bones against Adrian's It's A Wonderful World.
Finally, in Swear An Oath Dan and Adrian let down the side (again) by leaving Blackout: Hong Kong and Nemo's War unfulfilled. They did, however, complete Quacks of Quedlinburg and Welcome To, and Steve fulfilled Architects of the West Kingdom and 7 Wonders Duel. And new oaths are committed with Pendulum (Adrian), Towers of Arkhanos (Dan), and Trismagistus (Adrian)
