Thank you for your support. This episode is sponsored by US Aopoli. Share laughter and make memories. Welcome to the Dice Tower, a podcast about board games and card games and

especially the people who play them. In today's show, Mandy and I talk about some kick- starters,

look beyond the new hotness, and look into the mailbag for a quick Q&A.

I'm Suzanne Sheldon. And I'm Mandy Hutchinson. We're back. It's weeks after

GenCon but this is the first episode we're recording since GenCon it's lovely

to talk to you again, Mandy.

And you too.

I feel like Gen Con was so far away.

Right, it seems like weeks, it's a couple weeks ago now,

but the way time works.

And honestly, it was fun to hear Tom and Eric just you know they're digging into all their game piles I know you've been digging in your piles of games from GenCon too right?

Oh my goodness it's just every Saturday I'm like hey we're playing this

this I'm just trying to get through all the games. But I definitely wanted to say

thank you to everybody who came by the booth at GenCon. It was, for my first GenCon,

it was quite the experience.

And I enjoyed it.

I was

without a doubt the best thing was just being in the booth and getting to meet people. There was a constant stream of people to the dice tower booth and it was just incredibly gratifying and heartwarming to meet people who listen to the podcast or watch our

video content. So if you stop by and we got to say hi to you, thank you so much. That was just incredibly awesome.

Also, Mandy, we got pins, enamel pins of our dice guys there, which were just too cute.
