Sorry! Tom forgot to upload this episode of the podcast because he was on a plane. A plane! In the sky! How do you expect us to podcast under these conditions?!
On this dromedary episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down Podcast, Tom and Matt natter about a collection of - YOU GUESSED IT - boardgames.
Resafa! Itâs a game about camels and irrigation and cards and POINTS! PlayProp! Itâs a game of trying to get corks into a cup and screaming! Elfenroads! Itâs a game about gently meandering down winding fantasy paths until an errant âcart orcâ ruins your day, or week, or possibly year.
Finally, the dynamic duo chat about another characterful couplet; Dracula vs Van Helsing - a two-player duelling game we'll review in a few DAYS time!
Thanks for listening everyone! Have a great week!

On this uphill episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down Podcast, Tom is rambling to Matt about a couple bits and bobs heâs played recently! First up is Flamme Rougeâs âGrand Tourâ expansion, that turns a simple session of Flamme Rouge into a month long tour! Is it as good as it was when Matt played it just seven short years ago? Find out here!
Thatâs then followed by a little recommendation for a recent Oink title - Moving Wild - before capping the podcast off with a bit of retrospective chat regarding SETI: Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence after our recent(ish) middling reviewâŠ

On this rock-and-rolling episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down Podcast, Tom and Matt are chatting about three very different games. First up is Rock Hard 1977, a euro-ish game of being a ROCK STAR that had one of the funniest arcs of any game weâve played this year. We also chat about Tomâs most recent BGA obsession, Newton. Itâs a game of cards and efficiency! What more could you want? Finally, the gang chat about The Gang - a game that asks âwhat if poker was co-operative?â Makes u think, donât it.
Have a great weekend!

This week on the inimitable Shut Up & Sit Down Podcast, Tom and Matt showcase their survival skills by going to Germany and then RETURNING from Germany, having played such a very large quantity of games.

Many pints of sweet sweat have been pumped into the world in order to bring you this episode of the podcast, so you're morally obliged to at least TRY and enjoy it.

On this out-of-this-world episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down Podcast, Tom and Matt have played two incredibly spicy space games that have got them all excited. First up is SETI: Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence; a game of discovering aliens and working out âwhat their deal isâ thatâs absolutely fascinating and packed with CGEâs specific, odd tendencies. Following that tall act is Sol: Last Days of a Star, a game that sits on the complete OTHER end of the spectrum. Pilot your âsundiversâ away from a dying star, as you desperately eke out turns before everything is gone forever? The perfect way to spend a Thursday evening.
Have a great weekend, everybody!

On this⊠seedy⊠episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down Podcast, Tom and Emily are talking about two bucolic farm-em-ups in Windmill Valley and Harvest, as well as the utterly innocent Courtisans. Emily decided the theme on this one after the fact and Iâm still reeling. Seedy? Itâs a family show, come on now We also end up spending a weird amount of time getting into the particulars of how the two very pleasant and agricultural games listed are not entirely to each other's aesthetic tastes. Strange!
Have a great weekend, everybody!

On this gritty episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down Podcast, Tom and Emily are chatting about a whole duneâs worth of sandy, sandy games! Well, two of them are sandy. The other two are just games. In fact one of the two sandy games is mostly water. Listen, itâs Friday afternoon and Iâm ready to stop working and start playing Deadlock, which I am hopelessly addicted to. Truth be told, the new fortnightly podcast schedule only exists to fuel my addiction to losing roughly four games in a row every evening until the end of time. I will die ignorant, and I will die angry. You canât stop me! YOU CANâT STOP ME!!
This episode, weâre talking about Sand, Surfâs Up, Sumo, and Tokkuri Taking! Enjoy!
