0:25.8	We'll see what just me again today. No Rief, no Craig, no D&D Posse. I just want to give you an update on two things today. I wanted to actually give a short sort of update on, actually it's a review, really,
1:00.4	because I don't think you've ever reviewed this game.
1:03.4	Smash Up by AEG, it's a great little card game.
