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!

| 0:00.0 | 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? |
