Summary

Our copies of Dune finally came in, and we’ve been getting a lot of questions about what makes our second game so special. So we thought we should take the time and break down all the reasons we’re excited about Dune by Gale Force Nine, and how we hope to be able to start covering it on our show! Join in on the discussion here, on our Discord, or at our Board Game Geek Guild. Connect with us on Facebook and Twitter. And send us your in game moments for Play of the Week! and This Imperium Life at [email protected] We appreciate all of the feedback and discussion, but there are more ways you can contribute!

0:20.4	Music by Ben Prunty, featuring Matt Martins and Hunter Donaldson.
0:50.3	This is crazy. This is crazy because we're actually kind of at the point now where we are starting to transition the show into being about more than just Twilight Imperium.
0:56.8	Yeah, it's weird. Because we did almost 100 episodes before we had to. Well, to well you know what I'm gonna go ahead and say it we technically have done a hundred episodes well yeah I just had a
1:01.5	dumb numbering convention that for some reason didn't include the learn to learn or any of the
1:07.0	this imperium lives which are all very clearly about twilight imperium So if we're really counting, we're at like episode 106, but, you know, whatever.
1:15.2	Right.
1:15.6	Well, and that's a good transition into saying next week is our official 100th episode,
1:21.1	even though it actually isn't.
1:23.1	But because of Matt's weirdness, we have something special for you that kind of came together
1:28.7	really suddenly. We actually interviewed the daddy of all Twilight Imperium daddies, the granddaddy
1:38.2	of Twilight Imperium, Christian T. Peterson himself. We interviewed him. We've actually already done it, but we will be,
1:45.7	we will be showing you that next week. That is your episode 100, 100 special episode. I'm really
1:51.6	excited about it. I'm excited about it just to tease some of the content, not to get into it,
1:56.2	but I just like that, I feel like we got some different stuff out of him than I've found in
2:00.8	the past. Not that I've watched every interview that different stuff out of him than I've found in the past.
2:01.1	Not that I've watched every interview that he's ever done, but it just felt very focused on Twilight Imperium, whereas he's, you know, he's been a, he's been a big businessman for a long time.
2:10.4	So he's had more important things to be interviewed about.
2:13.8	And it was nice kind of getting back to, this felt like an interview that could have happened six years ago, you know, where he's like talking about, we talked through like all the old additions and just everything, just how he's gone about creating the universe of Twilight Imperium. And I just thought it was super, super, super fun. And I can't wait for everybody to hear it. So just start getting super hype for next
