In this jam-packed episode, Conor takes the reins as host and is joined by Adrian and Joe to chat about what they’ve been playing, some solo deep-dives, party chaos, and emerging favourites.
Joe's Long Weekend of MayhemJoe dives into his recent experience playing Blood on the Clocktower over a long weekend with friends. Expect stories of bluffing, betrayal, and late-night accusations as he shares how this social deduction classic went down with his group—and whether any friendships survived the chaos!
Conor Compiles... and Compiles AgainConor has been putting in serious time with Compile, getting in multiple plays of this clever and compact card game. He shares his thoughts on how it holds up after repeated plays, where it shines, and whether it’s earned a permanent spot in his rotation.
Adrian Goes Solo with The AnarchyAdrian has been digging deep into The Anarchy, especially in solo mode. He breaks down how the game works, what makes it stand out mechanically, and why it’s kept him coming back to the table. If you’re a solo gamer or a fan of crunchy historical themes, this one’s for you.
Plus, the team riffs on gameplay highlights, player dynamics, and what’s exciting them in the hobby right now.

This week, Joe, Jules and Lauren tuck into a mixed bag of gaming experiences. Jules has been dipping his fins into the Wingspan universe and getting back into Magic: The Gathering whilst being very excited about some upcoming IPs that are coming for his wallet. Joe has finally rejoined his weekly game group and had an absolutely kraken time bidding for the favour of gods in Cyclades. Lauren has been exploring a game that has her playing by the book in Artisans of Splendent Vale.

In this episode, Banana, Adrian and Conor are in the mood to reminisce about a HUGE gaming weekend for Adrian’s 40th birthday. Adrian has fallen for The Gang, and by that he means not just the people at his birthday bash, but the game as well. Meanwhile Conor has been battling head-to-head and having fun with one of his favourite TCG’s without breaking the bank, in Altered. Banana surprisingly enjoyed a game that prides itself on getting pleasure from other people’s misery in Shadenfreude, and also got to have an unexpected try of a Kickstarter prototype!

It wouldn’t be Oceania month without Matthew Dunstan, who is closing in on the title for the most guest appearances on the podcast! In this episode, Jules and Joe chat about Matthew’s new YouTube channel, co-designing, and how he enjoys giving back to the board game design community. We also hear about some upcoming games, the business of being a full-time board game designer, and which designer he’d like to co-design a game with!
Plenty of games have been hitting the table too. Jules is surprisingly taken with planning a Jazz Festival in Bebop, meanwhile, Joe and his friend Megs are newly married and not liking Conor’s taste in furnishings in Decorum.

Continuing on with our Oceania theme, Conor and Dana Banana are back and chatting to Aussie designer, Craig E. Somerton. Craig is still on a high after a successful Kickstarter with his first published game, Farm Hand. He talks about his journey in board gaming and designing, and in particular, his affinity for trick-taking games. He even hints at his new design!
As usual, when Conor and Banana get together, the episode is full of tangents that seem to go nowhere. Somewhere in between, is the occasional nod to a classic game in Five Tribes and Agricola while Craig gives us his no.1 trick-taker of all time.
As this episode was recorded in a post Cyclone Alfred time-warp, there is no Question of the Pod, but still lots of laughs and gaming conversation to enjoy!
