Summary

In this furious episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down podcast, Quinns, Ava, and Tom are talking about three games that couldn’t be more different. First up we’ve got a chat about Illumination - a game all about scrawling doodles in the margins of MonkBooks, before pivoting hard into playing (?) with (?) dogs in Good Puppers - a set collection game with a sinister backstory. Finally, we’re talking about our not-too-positive experience with Memoir ‘44 Flight Plan, and Quinns asks everyone a difficult question.

PS: I’m really sorry about the stings.

Have a great weekend, everybody!

Hello and welcome to the excessively shut up and sit down podcast. I'm joined today by

0:19.0

Quentin Smith. Hello, Ava Foxfarts. And I'm joined here today by Tom Brewster. Hello,

0:26.5

Tom Brewster. And we're here to talk about board games, board games and board games. We've got a few

0:33.6

lovely little treats for you coming up. We've got a game about monks as I understand it. We've got a

0:38.9

game about dogs, I believe, and we've got a game about war. I mean, it says it says memories,

0:45.7

but it is war. It's just it's just war fighting. And then we've got something that Quentin's keeping

0:51.2

secret from me, which is titled Quentin's special debate, which which could mean anything. And

0:59.0

that should be exciting. I think it's going to be a debate and it's going to be quite something.

1:04.1

Stopping is going to be special. Is it going to be special? Is it going to be special?

1:07.6

Is it going to be special? I don't know. It depends whether you two continue to be antagonistic

1:12.1

and difficult. It depends if we're right to the task, I suppose. I think you're both up to the

1:16.5

task if you try hard. My special debate is I think of going to be a value to the audience.

1:20.6

Going to be a value to anybody who likes buying board games or anyone who's interested in

1:26.6

in comparing one thing against another thing. I mean, that should be a good target audience

1:34.8

for us, right? Because I think that we we try and do all of those things. Yeah. Well, sometimes

1:39.3

maybe sometimes we do. And but maybe also sometimes we don't. Oh, I'm comparing and contrasting.

1:46.8

Oh, I already hate this segment and I hate that I wrote it in the document.

1:52.6

I was just going to say it's that sting. That can be a perfect.

1:59.7

Yeah, just just scream the word sting and I will know where to put one in. Peek out the mic and

2:05.7

I'll be able to identify exactly when we need one. You want us to peak the mic?

2:10.4

Yeah, as hard as possible, please. Should I just talk about illumination or just someone

2:18.1

want to ask you about illumination? I'll go. Why don't you tell us about illumination?
