Happy New Year! We start of 2022 with our January episode starting out with discussion of quiz shows and what makes them appealing. Vinh then has the very niche topic of how the time between viewing parts of a series impacts on its reception. Rounding out the new year with more Counter Intelligence as regularly scheduled.

It's hard to believe that its already December but here we are with our new episode, and it's our longest to date. Vinh has been considering the relative importance of his kitchen equipment. While Daniel has been thinking about narrative and character driven stories. Finishing with our most difficult rounds of Counter Intelligence yet (self imposed or not).

Now here we are again (It's always such a pleasure) with our November episode. Starting with food disasters, reflecting on some of our cooking regrets. Then Vinh is trying to decide on what game is next on his list, whether to go with one of his old favourites or jump into something new. Our regular game continues, looking at platformers and then a curly one on stringed instruments.

This year is going quickly and we are back for the October episode. Starting off this time around with introducing people to acquired tastes. Then, Daniel has been playing the new Metroid Dread which has him thinking about sequence breaks in general. Finally, our regular game continues this time around with a very saucy set of rounds.

Time for our September episode and we have a special guest joining us again this time around, Charlotte. Vinh is on lead this time with discussion of rock, paper, scissors mechanics in games (poor Bulbasaur). Then a random discussion about fun facts (joy brought from included facts not guaranteed). Finishing by bringing someone new in on our regular game.

Back for the month of August here we go again. It's finally time for a discussion of cooking that was promised back when we started as Vinh has been experimenting with monosodium glutamate (MSG). Daniel then talks about the experience of creating an escape room for a group of friends and how that differed from expectations. Finishing with a new name for our recurring segment.

We are back for our second episode as we learn how to do this. Today we start with a discussion of narratives in board games and role playing games in particular, and get a real insight into how Vinh plays games. Followed by early impressions of Nintendo's Game Builder Garage. Finishing with what looks to be becoming a recurring event, a game of Not Jackie Chan.

Welcome to our very first episode, featuring special guest Jordan. We are very much still learning how to do this so it is a little rough around the edges, but we hope you enjoy. We have discussion about a new board game called Lawyer Up, Nintendo's E3 direct and go off the rails with a word game involving Jackie Chan to finish.
