    Episode 18 - Meet The Fakirs

    Episode 18 - Meet The Fakirs

    It's that time again doggedly faithful listener, that's right, half past a Wallace's Brass a quarter till Cathala. In this, the 18th episode of the Not Safe For Worker Placement Podcast we get steamy with two Martin Wallace train classics play the fantastic Five Tribes and discuss our recently completed Charterstone campaign! We also decide to never use the words Man Cave again instead christening the Non Binary Gender Fluid Cave just in time to move out and not be at all in charge of what people call it. We know how to make the most of our time and yours. There's more improvised musical ads and more general jackassery so don't miss a minute, because in the immortal words of Steve Miller; Time keeps on slippin, slippin, slippin. Into the kitchen... Or something like that. I'm not good with lyrics. Ciao!

    Step right up one and all, young and old! Marvel at the exploits of two idiots the likes of which the board gaming world has never seen! See how they edit their way out of technical glitches, you'll barely notice! Gape in wonder at their collective ineptitude while simultaneously they manage to keep you in rapped attention with their undeniable down home charm! Do you enjoy rambling, barely coherent conversation about games like Heaven & Ale, Oh My Goods, and TI4 between parties that hardly remember playing them? Your in luck! Just a penny for an adult and a haypenny for a child, that's right step right up and enter the confines of this rickety tent! You'll hear a bushel of ill-formed opinions and more half-hearted improvised music than you can shake a Crown Royal velvet bag full of polyhedral dice at! That's right folks, see the one and only Not Safe For Worker Placement Podcast! What..? Not interested..? Scram then you little punk, before I sick the Bearded Lady on ya!

    Episode 16 - Legends of the Fog II: Western Love

    Episode 16 - Legends of the Fog II: Western Love

       We cut to a close up of Brad Pitt as he gazes perplexed at Sam Elliott. His expression softens as we realize he has just fully grasped the magnificence of the mustache before him. Sam tries to look away but can't break the spell of those baby blues as deep as the spring down the trail from his Grandpappy's place. The gravity of the moment builds and we hear the violins swell- Just then Jake Gyllenhaal throws back the tent flap!

      Oh hi, I didn't see you there. I was just writing a little fanfic inspired by this the 16th episode of The Not Safe For Worker Placement Podcast! I'll finish it later, I'm sure your not interested in that wholesome little yarn. I bet you are however interested in board games! If so well we've got a doosey for ya. Two great interviews with the developer and designer of Western Legends and Fog Of Love! Both interviews pull back the curtain on what it takes to get a game to market in this ever changing board game landscape. Speaking of pulling back the curtain.... There he stands, Donnie Darko wearing the creepy bunny suit and holding the head under his rippling bicep laden arm...

    Episode 15 - Board Game Blindness

    Episode 15 - Board Game Blindness

      Once again around The Sun my friends! Or to my Flat Earther friends, once more the sheeple have been fooled by the Illuminati Lizard People into believing in their flimsy science. I feel ya. Anywhoosle... 2017 was a lot of things, most of them orange and most of them terrible but in one thing we can all agree, the green M&Ms taste better than the other colors. Oh, and that board games pretty much killed it last year, that too.

      In our premier episode of 2018 we discuss the myriad of great games we played over the holidays including a double dip of Stonemaier Games, Charterstone & Scythe. As well as Rajas Of The Ganges, Fog of Love and many more! Leeandra gets officially diagnosed with a rare condition and in IRL we ponder an upcoming move and Star Wars: The Last Jedi!
