0:00.0	Hello and welcome to the very 134th episode of The Shut Up and Sit Down podcast.
0:16.8	The podcast that's all about board games, board games, and the people who love board games.
0:22.1	My name is Matt Lees and today it's just me and all Quentin Smith.
0:26.3	I'm 12 months into the pandemic and I still love board games even though we've had to play them digitally for too long.
0:33.3	It's strange. I'm actually getting to the point now where it's probably stock homes in German.

1:55.2	Yes.
