Hello everybody and welcome to the 90 second Shut Up and Sit Down podcast.

My name's Quentin Smith and I am here to be your Sherpa upper mountain of board games.

Sherpa, I love it and I am joined by my as always irreverent and hit miss colleague.

It's Matthew Lee, it's the irreverent of irreverence.

Me. It's a British spring day outside which is to say dark, it's wet, but matt and

iron doors, we're in a well lit room, we've got a little cup of rubibos tea.

Recording in my little home studio slash spare bedroom in which some of the sound foam

to make the podcast sound nice have fell on you and woke you up in the night.

It's true, it was hilarious. The thing is when we talk about your baffling foam falling on me

in the night, people need to understand this isn't like a small bit of foam.

This is something the size of a six year old that fell bodily on me in the middle of the night

leading to me to think that I was under attack.

Yeah, this I mean this room is so echoey that even with all of these huge chunks of foam

it's still quite echoey. It did remind me that it's not bad, but when I was younger I

attached a number of picture frames to my wall via a kind of network, a web network of duct tape.

Okay, so I kind of realized I was like, hey, this duct tape is so strong, I can stick pictures

to the wall, but then because it was all kind of web together it meant that you never to bleed

one night while I was asleep. All of these pictures fell down in one big chunk.

As you can tell from this, Matt and I struggle with life and that's why we find solace in

board games. It was one of the stupid things I've ever done. Anyway, let's carry on.

Well, we'll talk about your tramways experience later. Oh gosh.

So in this podcast we're going to be talking about new frontiers, the race for the Galaxy
