Welcome new listeners from BGG. If you're wondering whether this is truly an award nominated board gaming podcast, I assure you, we definitely only talk about board games and we are very serious about it. (Psst, hey if you're reading this, that means you have the special Slophead power. It's like those magic eye puzzles but you can only read it if you've enjoyed Monopoly DEAL. Don't worry, that first message was just a trap I set for unsuspecting Geeksters. We definitely got your Bionicle needs covered. Bionicles: are they shrinky-dink? Are they dope? Are those Pohatu's fingers or are they guns? Is the entire franchise problematic? All this and more unveiled on this juicy mess of a 'sode.) Games we played: 3:16 - Mamma Mia!
