For December 2023 we have a special episode with our first guest. We have the distinct honour of a sit-down and chat with Mr. Jamey Stegmaier of Stonemaier Games! What a way to wrap up 2023!

We open the episode with a talk about Jordan's new additions to his collection for the Christmas season. Thomas's additions closely follow this. We switch gears into discussing the fear of missing out (FOMO) in our hobby. Jamey joins us at this point for a visit. After the visit, Thomas gives us an update on the 365 Challenge.

We then begin to chat about Thomas's other plays including Battleline, MicroMacro: Crime City, Dragon Realm, and Werewolves. This other plays is capped off with a small talk on Lost Ruins of Arnak: The Missing Expedition. After 40 minutes of chatter, Jorden is able to talk about his other plays including Ticket to Ride, Mandala, Sagrada, and a highlight of Lacuna.

Near the end of the banter, we discuss our Board Game Stats Year in review before switching into a talk about the games we reviewed this year. Finally, it's time for our Current Plays Libertalia and Voidfall!
