TGT Replay 127: Casual Gamers

This is our last replay episode!  This means you get to hear the episode that Fletcher joined us in right now.  And it means you get to listen to a brand new episode next week!  (That episode we’re going to be talking about the top rated games.)

But of course, if you don’t want to listen to Fletcher’s first episode, you can always just skip to  1:08:20 and listen to the new stuff.

TGT Replay 075: Table Flippers

In this, our seventh episode in our series of summer replay episodes, we talk about Table Flippers.  Those people that get just a little too passionate about the games they play.  (i.e. Kitty gets mad when things don’t go her way.)

You can also skip to the end and just listen to our comments on this episode by skipping to 1:03:50. (Where’s all the other stuff that goes here?

TGT Replay 074: NOT Buying Games

This is the sixth in our series of summer replay episodes and we’re half way through.  And this week it’s about Chris, well Chris and his game buying habits.  He made some promises (commitments?) in this episode, and at the end we find out if he kept them…

…we find out in the last 15 minutes with present day us (including Josh again) looking back at this episode.  But, if you don’t want to re-listen to this entire episode you can skip right to the conclusion, by going to timestamp 1:01:10.

(Where’s all the other stuff that goes here?  Well, our live shows will resume in a few weeks (we’ll give you plenty of warning) and we’ll also start taking listener read credits at that time as well.)

TGT Replay 073: Analysis Paralysis

This is the fifth in our series of summer replay episodes and we’re half way through.  This is our famed (ok, maybe just famed by us) AP episode where we answer all the questions about why some people have AP and how we can find common ground with them.  Or if you are an AP player, how you can find common ground with those players that just don’t seem to care as much about the game as you do…

As always, we have another 15 more minutes of present day us (including Josh again) looking back at this episode. We probably should have but some kind of musical queue between the end of the first post credits and the start of the new stuff, but… yeah, we didn’t.  In any case, if you don’t want to re-listen to this episode and skip right to the new stuff, then listen to the first minute or so and then skip to 1:05:24.

(Where’s all the other stuff that goes here?  Well, our live shows will resume in a few weeks (we’ll give you plenty of warning) and we’ll also start taking listener read credits at that time as well.)

TGT Replay 062: Significant Others

This is the fourth in our series of summer replay episodes.  In this episode there is a hostile takeover.  Ok, not really hostile, but still a takeover and you get a chance to know us from the other side, the sig side…

After the original episode finishes, we have another 15 more minutes of present day us (including Josh again) looking back at this episode. If you don’t want to re-listen to this episode and skip right to the new stuff, then listen to the first minute and then skip to 57:40.

TGT Replay 030: Drinking Games

This is the third in our series of summer replay episodes.  In this episode we have a little fun talking about drinking games.  But we still tried to keep it family friendly.

And after the original episode finishes, we have another 15 more minutes of present day us (including Josh again) looking back at this episode. If you don’t want to re-listen to this episode and skip right to the new stuff, then listen to the first minute and then skip to 1:10:20.

TGT Replay 019: Metagaming

This is the second of our summer replay episodes.  In this episode we go meta.  First meta about the podcast, and then we talk about meta gaming (and cheating).  And then, after the original episode finishes, you get 15 more minutes of present day us (including Josh again) looking back at this episode.

If you don’t want to re-listen to this episode and skip right to the new stuff, then listen to the first minute and then skip to 1:01:50.

TGT Replay 004: What Makes a Game Fun?

In the first of our summer replay episodes, we’ll be going all the way back to Kitty’s first episode and asking the question, What Makes a Game Fun… for us?  If this episode seems longer than others, that’s because there’s about 15 additional minutes at the end of the episode where we (present day Chris, Kitty, Josh and Fletcher) talk about the episode and how things have changed since it’s original publication.

If you don’t want to re-listen to this episode and skip right to the new stuff, then listen to the first minute and then skip to 1:05:58.  But really, it’s all good, we promise!

TGT On Topic 200: Top 10 Games We Want To Play For All Time (TTiGWWiTPaFAT)

This week we ask ourselves, “If we could only play 10 games for the rest of time, what would they be?” – And then we answered it in this episode.  And the lists might surprise you.  We had very little overlap which means you get nearly 30 games worth of ideas in case you ever find yourself stranded on Mars with the perfect gaming group and have the foresight to order a bunch of board games before that happens.

TGT On Topic 199: Gaming Milestones

This week we look back at the gaming milestones in the last 120 years.  Well at least Chris’s take on those milestones.  We also talk about raw fish.  Chris does one of the worse outros ever, while Adrian Paterson does one of the best reading of the credits ever and doesn’t even get credit for it in the episode.  We’ll fix that in episode 200 – which is being recored live in 2 days (Thursday, June 18th, 2020).  You can join us live by reading the next paragraph…
