The Incomparable Mothership #184 March 1, 2014
A draft of favorite board games.

Genius Edition

Do you love cardboard and hate sanity? Then join us for our draft of favorite board games! We do some uranium mining on a donkey, propose a new trivia-themed podcast, debate the merits of Sanka versus Yuban, and discuss two different versions of Risk—three, if you count the version Tony invented where each Risk battle is settled by a full game of Monopoly.

Listen to this episode (1 hour, 24 minutes)
