    Warning: This podcast contains strong language and adult content

    Its time to channel our inner Bob Ross and Duncan Rhodes, as we talk about our anual painting challenge, this time using only the Two Thin Coats starter paints.

    Go check out the video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ec37fRNzegc

    We also talk about the Arthurian legend board game from the makers of Oathsworn, Avalon: The Rivel Veil, trade stocks and shares in Big Boss from Funko, and rebuild ancient city walls in Ezra and Nehemiah from Garphill Games.

    We then answer listener questions on what we like and hate about the games industry and where to get the latest releases in the UK.
