Hello everybody and welcome to the very 263 episode of the Shut Up and Sit Down podcast, a podcast about board games and the people who love board games.

On this week's episode, it's me, Tom Brewster and games on this week's episode it's me

Tom Brewster and you Matthew Lee's that's me and also you the audience

oh the secret third list uh host of the podcast yeah you're on the podcast too

if you want to interject at any time just start speaking whether you're on a bus or a

train or an airplane just start shouting and saying no're wrong. It might seem like we're not

listening because the conversation will not be affected by what you're saying. But we are. You're

here. You're all here with us. Wow. In this room. That's very disconcerting to think about

an entire busload of people listening to the Shut Up and a Down podcast, chanting, you're wrong. Shouting. It's about board games, Matt. Yes. And on this week's episode, we're going to talk about

like a bunch of them, but only in a little tiny morselish quantity. It's a little morsel pod. It's

lots of little quick takes about games. A lot of short, sharp, sweet games with small opinions. Yeah, well,

small boxes as well. Like, some of these games have a little small cozy feel. Yeah. And some of

these games are small enough that you could probably, if pushed, put one into your mouth. Don't

say, oh. We've got a reputation for talking about putting

board game pieces into our mouth. We can't upgrade to board game boxes as well. I mean, if it wasn't

for, I mean, spoiler, we're going to talk about some oink games, but if it wasn't for the delicious

productions of those boxes with their glossy, tight little svel, rectangular bods, if they

weren't so lovely, then I would definitely put one in my mouth just to prove a point.

But I don't want to because I can tell you for a fact that if I do put one into my mouth, it's going to get teeth mark onto it.

And that might make it a collector's item for some people, or it might make it a useful tool for diagnosing my body after an air crash

for a dental record's purposes. But it will spoil the game. I don't know if it would

spoil the whole game. It would just make people slightly repulsed to touch in the box.
