I'm Brian with me is very ironically the insult I have for him He has as his name Mr. Monopoly Chris James. Hi Chris. Well, that's bad. Oh, yeah. Oh Yeah, very interested now because I mean, I don't I don't have a dog. I feel like I don't have a dog in the fight I don't care either way, but I didn't know monopoly was considered bad.

Well, it's for dorks and stupid people. OK. Can I just say the recording started like the pop up? It popped up after Brian introduced the show, so I don't know if it's here. We're going to pop up before that for me. OK. We're going to make it sure because I know if it's here. We're good. All right. I mean. It popped up before that for me. Okay. Yeah, we're good. So maybe that's a you.

Making sure, cause I know. Not a Brian. I'm sure it is. I just, I just want to make sure Brian doesn't flub or anything. Hey fellas, fellas, fellas, that we don't, this isn't the type of stuff we do on our podcast. We don't talk about stuff like that.

So we'll just. We're taking over. Let's just get in. We have a crossover. We have two big dogs on, I mean. Yeah, that's what happened. We do have a crossover. We have the big boys, a couple of big daddies on the guy.

Introduce you for crying. He's not. Well, we can introduce ourselves. Yeah. Hello, everybody. And welcome back to another edition of guys. Your favorite podcast about guys. I'm John. And with me, as always is. Oh, I'm Stefan. I fucked up the intro.

Hey, that was nice. Yeah. Thank you for doing that. Now we're done. It's a party crossover. And I had them on because I was doing board game guys. Only one man can be on the board game guys episode and that is John Cullen. Yes. And Stefan plays those weird games, the cards and whatever that shit is. No, you're right. They are weird. They're not even like the normal ones like if you're thinking at home Oh, he I guess he plays one of the normal ones like no. No, they're weird

I've got some board games on the shelf behind me But obviously not I mean John doesn't have I wish John had his board game shelf behind him cuz it's well It's it's in the closet right behind me. I mean I can bring some of the games How many how many board games you have just to give the listener an idea here probably 40? 40 it's more than that. Isn't it? Did you get rid of someone you moved? Uh, no here. I'll go. Yeah monopoly John No, I don't have monopoly. Oh Chris is such a nerd. I don't I don't have monopoly. I have no monopoly Brian

I don't have any version of Monopoly. Yeah Okay, so that there are yeah that makes sense there they would make different versions of okay, so John left I mean, this isn't really good Get some of his yeah, but this is an audio podcast We don't we don't know anything because it does seem like it could be a video because we have like we all have great Camera setups and everything too, right? So it would be it's unfortunate We can't see and John's wearing some interesting. It's a pajama pants that are Okay, Brian Brian. I'm gonna I'm gonna ask you here Respectfully if you could grab a hold of this episode and just wrestle it back from the guys and just take I am all of it Again, I will I will okay, so I have

So I have what you have about 55 fakes 55 That's a pretty fast. That was impressive That is a good number I did see a few guides that were up to 50 or sit whereby in like six a week when they first like the guys like I've been into board games for nine weeks and I buy six a week and Are you cuz these games here's the thing about board games and it's, I'm kind of goofing on Chris with the monopoly thing. That is the easiest possible game to monopoly connect for. That's what you're all thinking about. But no board game guys don't play that shit.

They play the hardest to learn games in the world where you spend to you come over for a game night. You spend like two hours learning the rules and then play. Well, that's game. That's the fun. No, the rules are the fun part. Oh, he knows that you get to learn all the different rules and learn what you're. You know what I love? I love learning what I'm not allowed to do.

That's one of my favorite things when I'm having fun. You're the guy I hate at my board game night where I'm like, you can't do that. And you're like, who says I can't do that? And you're like, oh, yeah, the rules say that guy tried to find loopholes. There is a guy we can go to that right now. I have annoying board game loophole. Yeah. Loophole, a loophole area is going to, I think, bother everybody.

You know, I think you're going to, I think this episode is going to have some of the most annoying guys of all time. Just knowing what I know about John is the most John is the most well I know you just did Elon Musk guys obviously which is like that's it's not gonna be that level of course but John is like the most normal board game guy I think in the world probably I mean thank you that's very nice of you to say he has has to say he doesn't do a podcast with you. He's got to say that. He can't insult you openly.

He has a relationship with you. That's true. That's true. Yeah. You and Brian can insult me openly though. That's fine. Yeah. I mean, I will, I think the hardest one, I mean, there are obviously games that are much harder to learn, but like Scythe, I think I remember the,

like how to play video that was made by the people who made Scythe is like over 30 minutes. Okay. And I sat and watched the whole thing and then, but usually what I do is I'll learn the rules first. So then when my friends come over, I explain the rules to them. You can do like a live video. Like, instead of them watching that 30 minute video, you can do a live 30 minute performance of it where you. Yeah, that's cool. That's very cool. Actually interesting, John, you would be great.

There is a place down the street for me. It might be closed now. It might be a coffee shop now, but it was called Kingmakers. OK, and they had board game Somalias there. And yes, the board game cafe where you go in and tell them like, these are the types of games we like. And then the board game person goes, OK, I got a game that's like slightly different and slightly better than those ones. Try that. That's pretty cool.

I like like I'm not being sarcastic here. That that is actually kind of a cool aspect of board. Like I like that, that someone can have that much knowledge and put it to that good use of like helping other people play a fun game. Well, let's let's check in with our board games. Uh, this guy for, I wanted to start with this guy because Stefan said these guys are annoying. Uh, believe me, this guy is the most annoying man we've ever covered. I think. That's crazy. Okay. I feel like that's an insanely high bar. Yes. This guy's uncle. Okay. So my like that's an insanely high bar. Yes, this guy's uncle

Okay, so my uncle enjoys cheating at games and just says that's life when we call him out on it and suggests We're being uptight by sticking to the rules How would you deal with this in your group? I can't stop playing games with him as it's a family board game night where he's present So who's the most annoying guy here the the guy posting this or the cheat, the uncle. OK, no, that's not very annoying. I I personally am. I'm a fan of cheating when it comes to games or any time.

If you can get a leg up in a situation and, you know, get away with it, I think that's a good thing to do. It sounds though like this guy's getting caught and then he's just saying, he just keeps saying like, fuck you. He's like, he's like, oh, I got caught. I don't care. You can't do that.

If you get caught, then you have to take some sort of punishment for cheating. It almost sounds like he's doing it in the open almost more. Like not even trying to do it. Daring them to do something. Like you're like, dare to catch me. He seems a bit menacing.

He seems a bit menacing. Maybe he's a yeah. I wonder how like what if he's like a physically imposing guy, military type fellow or whatever. We're going to find out. I'm sure. But how is he? How is he cheating and what games are they playing? He's a, he's a board game bruiser and we get some BGB. Yeah. Board game,

broosers. You don't want to mess with them. Let's get some advice. F Z K I Z says I'd literally never play a board game again, then willingly and knowingly play with adult cheaters. If you can't be bothered to be nice to your friends and family in a game and respect their entertainment as much as your own chances are I'd also not want to be around you without board games. So this guy would just write y'all listen, you have cheated at board games one too many times. I want you out of my life.

I mean, I cut this guy out of the will. This guy. Yeah, he needs the wedding is coming up and I just don't think he should come. To be honest, if he's at I love the idea, if he's at the family reunion, I'm not going. Yeah, not if there's games there. Yeah, what if there's exactly we're playing Settlers of Catan at my wedding. So he is not invited. Yeah, he stole my wheat last time. So well, Decom does reply to this and say

Christmas can be shit when you can't pick who you spend it with I'd agree with you better to not play again So I think the the advice they're giving is like just don't play games with them But this guy's and take a stand but it sounds like they're saying like don't play games like games are his life Maybe and it's like they're saying like, don't play games like games are his life maybe. And it's like, now he's going to give up most important thing for him, you know, because it seems like maybe that's the family game nights. That's when the games happen.

I mean, I'll say this as a big board game head. It's kind of like a book club. Like it can be very difficult to have a regular board game night. Like I've had it with multiple people and sometimes it's worked for, you know, a year or two, uh, but other times, uh, it falls apart pretty quickly. And so I think it's, it's a tough choice because if you have someone who is willing to play like every week or whatever, whatever that timeframe looks at every two weeks or whatever.

It is, it's a, I would say it's a delicate balance. Like I would hate that he was cheating, but it's also like, ah, but I really want to play games. And he's like a reliable player. He's a reliable player. That's what it kind of sounds like, right? He's always there, right? So you need a certain amount for certain games, right? can even play some of them with with less or winning though or is he just cheating to like fuck everyone up and he's coming like is he

like his piss drunk and just like oh yeah that's what you think you know like just really confrontational like it's not he doesn't care about board games at all I mean I don't know what these things are either are they like just family get-togethers where they play board games or is the board game night? Posting to write is he like 18 or 19 or is he like 40 and uncle is young? Yes. No, no. The the poster is young and the uncle's older.

And it is mentioned in the uncle's older than his nephew. mentioned in the uncle's older than his nephew. The, uh, it is said several times in the thing that the nephew has less social capital within, which is not generally, but that is true. The uncle, you respect the uncle more than the nephew. Yeah. This guy, I love this guy. Rodex says pro tip as an adult, you can always pick getting over the fear of disappointing family is so freeing Just saying thank you for the invite, but unfortunately, I can't make it

I have plans is so freeing some of my favorite Christmases have been really low-key not joining my in-laws or my own extended family Did he say this of did he say diss avoiding I said disappoint Disavointed I see what happened was that and you caught a flub and you know Was the poster and you're like, oh, let me jump all over the poster In fact, your friend Brian who's gone and made another and embarrassed himself on his own podcast I let it go because I saw you know, you you can read it well enough. I knew what I, I wasn't, I promise you, I fucking promise you. I heard him say it. I heard it a hundred percent. It ran through my head. Do I call this one out? No, I have to, I have to make a decision nowadays. I can't be calling out everyone,

but thank you for being there. Disappointed is kind of what I said, I guess and then I really like this next guy He goes why lie simply say thank you for the invitation, but I won't be coming I'm not comfortable with uncle cheaters style of play. Oh shit. Yes. I do like that Yeah, why I also like doing that out of context like you're Christmas and then, you know, you're like passing out the presents. You're like, oh, this one's for Uncle Cheater from and then everyone's like, oh, oh, I get from the board games. Oh, yeah. Yeah. OK. Yeah. I guess that's OK. Is that did he cheat on Auntie Martha?

What's going on? Oh, no, no, no. This is strictly a war game war game related cheating thing. Yeah. Well, this guy goes, tell him cheaters aren't allowed at the table if he protests and say, that's life. Oh, shit. What's good for the goose is good for the game. No, no. He replies and goes, I think he cheats because he can't deal with losing.

So I'm thinking of trying to express that to him and asking why specifically he feels the need to cheat. So he does win. It sounds like Stefan to answer your earlier question. He sounds like he's cheating in order to win the games. So that's what I respect. Yeah. Frustrating for that, for his opponent. So, you know, for sure. Yeah. Especially the younger nephew, right?

Like, that's a really tough spot to be in of like, I think like you're doing this because you can't handle losing and you're older than me by. Yeah, like I don't really fully understand the human psyche at this point in my development, but it seems to me like you shouldn't be acting this way. Maybe I should be cheating as an adult is really fucking crazy. It's that I can't think about. Yeah. Yeah. It's hard to think of something crazy. It's such an antisocial behavior to go to a game night.

You're 37 years old and you sit down and you're like, I'm going to fucking cheat at this game. I'm going to win this no matter what. You know, there's no stakes, there's nothing you're not. You're playing is simply for bragging rights. And yeah, you're playing to become closer to your family. Yeah. Well, that's also part of it, too. Yes, of course. That's the that's what you're actually trying to do.

But like the thing that you win is just bright. That's the most you win. You don't win anything, you know? But you also can't argue with a guy like this. You're never going to win. This next guy goes, I'd put it this way. Cheaters never win. For example, if two people stand in front of a chess board and white starts by moving upon across the board and knocking out the opponent's king, then they haven't won a chess game. It's not chess if you're not following the rules of chess. And if you cheat, that means you're not following the

rules. So if someone always cheats, then they never win. I imagine him saying that all to his uncle and his uncle just giving him a huge fucking beer belch into his face. The Opie comes back and goes, he's socially one because it winds us up, which he enjoys. And we're all stuffy for caring about the actual game and think winning the game is important. So this, I think what that poster is missing is that if you're the type of person who picks

up your pawn, knocks the king over and says, I won, you do believe you have won a game of chess going on in your mind. You're like, you're like, you wait, well, you didn't win a game of chess and you're going on in your mind. You're like, you're like, you wait. Well, you didn't win a game of chess. You're like, yes, I did. I just, yeah, you're king. So sorry. Like, I don't think that's relevant.

I don't think you're going to get through to this guy with any kind of reasoning in your stupid uncle with facts and logic. No, it's important. Your uncle has to be. He's just a menace. Like he is a menace. He is a menace. I can't imagine dealing with a with a fucking I can't imagine

dealing with an adult like that when I imagine you're fucking 22. Yeah, and this guy's like 40 and you're having to be like you're cheating and ruin in the game And he's like that's life, and you're like oh, okay Play a fair game though Game geek and find out what drives you bananas during game night Here are a few culprits. I find an all right. What sorry where is this from? I missed the beginning where board game geek It's not board games. I thought they like rank all the board games God

Classic site classic site and in message boards galore every game has its own message board So it's like old school like forum setup right? Yes, like yeah, really a treasure trove of God very cool It's also I'll say this they don't have any sex board games on there. Oh Interesting sure. I looked I looked up sex more game. What would a sex board game be? Oh, there's a lot There are plenty of them. There are fucking a lot of like there's probably like pussy Ophelia or something All I know is I don't add when I play those sex board games. I fucking play to win All I know is I don't add when I play those sex board games, I fucking play to win. My uncle, my uncle always cheats. It's I fucking see that the sex board games when I'm playing those sex games.

What was that? That was that guy, right? Right. He was like, he said there were two sex board game joke. Funny things that happen on that episode. One was the guy who said the cars are unreal. The cards are unrealistic. They said to stick my phone in my wife's pussy. Yeah. And I can't use mad because he's like, I obviously can't do that.

But what was the other guy? I've got the iPhone Pro Max. Yeah. The other guy on our box case. Like, it's not the other guy was mad because the mechanic of the game was that you say or do something, and then the other person judges whether or not that's a winner, which is just like,

they're just saying like, can I touch your titty? And they're gonna be like- Sex came to get you into having sex, but this guy was like, he wanted to win the game, you know? The good important thing for him was winning. Hold on, I can probably- I found a sex board to win the game. You know, the important thing for him was winning. Hold on. I can probably I found a sex board game. I'm just imagining like the guy like one of the cards is like his wife pulls a card

and is like, OK, you know, you got to touch your husband's dick. But he's like trying to win so hard. He's like moving his dick. Oh, no, no. Running around the house just doing like trying to protect his own dick. Yeah, yeah. I can't find it.

Actually, Stefan, you did say a Monopoly thing. It's called Monogamy. And it's a board game. It's actually a multi award winning board game. So, but yeah, I was looking for the sex board games on board game geek didn't come across. So I just found, I've posted one on the chat here. Sexopoly, which is a very high rating. 8.3 for board game geek didn't come across. So I just found I've. Yes, which is a very high rating 8.3 for board game.

Yeah, it's very high. I mean, how can how can you not give a good rating to something that you're not at the end? Well, this I mean, this definitely seems like I mean, I like the description. It says sexopoly is a new adult board game of strategy, luck, intimacy and fun designed to be played with your partner and or Very good friends capital on the very I like that. We know what that means By the way, jail is the dungeon. Oh, that's good. Go to go to the done. What is what's like boardwalk on here?

It's just like hard to talk my way. It looks like it's a butt plug maybe. I got it guys. AJ Hunter reviewed Monogamy, the board game. He gave it two out of five stars and he said, my fiance and myself bought this for a Valentine's Day weekend getaway for us to play in our hotel room so that we would have conversation starters. And the major issue to be honest would be that it doesn't feel like how it's described to be. The cards are misspelled multiple times.

The cards repeat way too much as well. And the questions are not conversation starters, but more of a mundane question about what the average woman likes or what the average man likes. You also are the one in charge of if one person moves forward based off of if you like what they said if You want something if you want someone to win or not to win you can just tell them No, you don't like it before so that's the guy again. This guy again is just like it's very easy for my partner to

Basically screw me over and beat me She can just like it even though she does screw me over and beat me because she can just like it even though she does. Most of them are dice like the sex dice. That's the main sex board game, but let's, let's take a look at what drives board game players crazy. Uh, here's a few culprits I found annoying. The phone phantoms, we've all seen them,

the players who disappear into their phones during the game, missing key moments and slowing everything down. Nowadays, sometimes I'm playing a goddamn board game and I look up and I say, am I playing a board game or am I in a zombie film? This feels like the apocalypse. This is what they were talking about is often what I'm thinking when I'm playing a person make icon. What are you doing? You know, I'm eye contact with me.

Oh brains. I don't have any brains. I say I'll say this. I do get bored when I play board games and kind of look at my phone. If there's if it was just me versus my wife, I wouldn't do it. But if there's like three or four people, I'm like, I want to check my phone if there's if it was just me versus my wife, I wouldn't do it. But if there's like three or four people, I'm like, I want to check my phone. I would get bored, but that's why I wouldn't. I wouldn't play them because I would get bored definitely playing them.

And I would be I would maybe look at my phone or something. But that's why I choose not to play board games. You'd be a the salty losers. No one likes to lose, but some players take it to a whole new level, blaming the game, saying X person always wins or bad luck instead of tipping their hat to the winner. So I guess you're supposed to take that is pretty, I don't do that. I never tip my hat to the winner. I'm always like, it's definitely something.

It's some external factors fault that I didn't win. That's definitely true. John, that's an actual normal way to think at the end of a game. I think I have to say like it was something else. You got lucky. Like I think that because most of these games rely on you picking some card or something, I think. I don't know. But I don't think it. Yeah, I think. Oh, okay. Hang on. John was going to. So, John, you think there's more skill involved in a lot of these games and just picking a card? Definitely. Yeah, absolutely. Well, you're saying Brian's wrong there. No, more like more the more modern type of board games.

There's always a luck component, but very often the luck component is quite a bit minimized compared to so I will their board games. I would say that like, there's a chance probably that some people are being labeled as being sore losers when in fact they're just have such a greater understanding of the game and the mechanics of the game that they sort of recognize that in this instance a lot of luck was involved in your victory. And I'm just simply stating that fact and I I think that that's that's that's a that's a very cool way to be in my opinion. Well, the backseat drivers, AKA the quarterback,

these players can't resist telling everyone what to do, even when it's not their turn. It's helpful to offer advice when solicited, but come on. So don't be. OK. There's the rule lawyers. We get it. The rules are important, but there's a time and place for endless rule debates. I don't know.

I don't know about that. I think rules are rules. That's the whole point of the game though, right? It's like you have to follow the rules. So if there's an issue with the rules, you need to sort it out. You need to sort it out. What are you gonna,

this sounds to me like you're trying to skirt the rules and you don't like being called. Yeah, you're trying to go uncle cheater mode and you don't want to get called out for it. This is my favorite guy. This is such an antisocial behavior that I love it. The card folders. These people have a special place in hell. I hope these players, these players take a perfectly good card and fold them unnecessary as they hold them. It's a small thing, but it's infuriating. Guy comes over your house, ruins your game. I mean that re that wrecks the game. It does. So it's like, you know, like, oh, sorry, I have a, sorry, I've just, that's a little bit of a thing I have,

you know, when I'm nervous, I just do that. It's like, well, you've ruined my game. My game is like these games cost a lot of money, probably too. Some of them, you know, so, oh yeah So how would that work, John? If say some cards were ruined in a game, could you get replacement cards sent out to you? It depends on the board game companies. So if the board game is made by a pretty large company that has a lot of resources, it's possible you could do that. But most likely not.

Most likely not. What happens a lot of times is what the board game companies will do now is if the cards are like a big component of the game, they will also send you blank cards that are included with the game. So let's say like a card got folded, you could then write down on like a new fresh card. Let's be honest then now what I'm thinking about,

you could get a fucking piece of paper and write it on. No, but then the paper, that would be even more obvious. No, I know, but who gives a fuck is my point. Like, hey, listen, put a couple of pieces of paper in there that are the same goddamn color as the card and just write on there. This is that card. I mean, it's yeah, it's not like playing with a deck of cards. Like in most of these games, if there's a card component, knowing what the card is, probably not. I suppose. I didn't even think about that though. In some instances, if it mattered,

then you would know for sure. Exactly. Especially if there's like a deck and then you saw the piece of paper was like five cards away or whatever, and you know what the piece of paper is, that could be a problem. But I mean, you know, you're right in a lot of games. I'm never going to play. I'm never thinking about it here every time. I'm like, I'm getting a little bit pumped up for it. And then something else happens and comes up and I'm like, no, I'm not going to play it. Guys, I own like six games that I've never played that I bought just because I was

like, maybe what? Sorry, hold on a second. Brian, you bought something that you've never used? Yeah. Are you telling me that you made a poor purchase? I wouldn't. I wouldn't call it a poor purchase. I'm sure he's.

Well, he wouldn't call it that because purchase. I'm sure he's pretty sure. Well, he wouldn't call it that because he probably spent a lot of money. I meant poor in a different sense. I meant like- Yeah, I mean, is it one of those things where you haven't opened it and it's more valuable if it's sealed? No, I have opened it.

What I got, I get it and then I open it. Then I get it. This what I got, I get it, and then I open it. Then I look at it. This guy is the most brilliant collector. He buys some shit, immediately opens it. I open it because I want to see what's inside. And I never play it. Or he never plays it or uses it or gets any use out of it. Just an absolute rube.

Just literally, just throw your money. How is that a rube? Throw your money out the window when you're driving. Just throw your cash out the window when you're driving. Just throw your cash out the window and your games. I got high. What are the games? I would love to know. I have high.

Oh, I was good. That's a good. You could play that with Katie. I have phase 10. Very good. Yeah. Yeah. I was a two player game and it takes about 10 minutes per round.

So that's a fun one. You could play with Katie or Gwen. Okay. We have bang, which have a two player game and it takes about 10 minutes per round. So that's like a fun one. You could play with Katie or Gwen. OK, we have Bang, which is a gun. Nice game. A dice game. Dice and cards. Yeah, we also have to need like a lot of people to play bang though to make it good. Yeah, we have a game with guns where like it's all looking up. So can I see guns? We have cash and guns is an awesome.

Did I play that with you, John? Yes, you did. That's a fun game. Yeah. Yeah. I think we played it at the summit one year. Yes. We have Colorado. We have Colorado. I don't even think I know that I never played it anyway. When did you buy the games?

When did you buy the games? And like, what was the what? Precipitated you buying the games? I would love to know what's the like what happens where you was the, what, what, what precipitated you buying the games? I would love to know what's the, like, what happens where you're like, you know what, I'm going to buy fashion guns. And when did you, did at any point you consider playing them or like, not really? I mean, I bought them and like, I would say between 2018 and 2020 all at once, all at once or like

playing one period. It sounds like you buy the ball. Oh, I'll all at once. Yeah, it just was like I went nuts on it was like I got to get all these games and then I leave board game phase in which you bought six board games, but that never played them. Yeah. Yeah. By the time they got to your house, the phase had worn out a zoo. We have Azul. Oh, Azul is really good. Yeah. I don't like it. I wouldn't know. I haven't played it. Yeah. That's a good game. Have you like, you've like fiddled with the pieces and stuff in the car? I opened it up and get it, get a look at it and like kind of sift through.

I open it up and get a look at it. Do you punch all the pieces? Look at the engine in a car. Check out what we're dealing with under the hood here. Is it the engine we're driving? That's a good question from John because that means... Do you punch out all the pieces? Because when you get a board game for the first time,

the cardboard pieces will all be on a sheet usually, and you've got to like punch them out. So do you pull those out and punch them out and put them into all their little Ziploc bags? That would be smart, cause then you're ready to play when you do play it six years from now. Or did you never do that? I might play it.

I did, I get them all ready to go. I have them all ready. Every game we have here is ready to play. Do you think you're likelier to play now after this little discussion or? No, I think I'm less likely to play than ever. You should send them to people. You should send them away to like, is there listeners who would like actually play the game or something, you know, because that's just silly to have

them sitting there taking up space. I'm going to play them someday. Maybe. Did you guys hear the hoarding? Oh, did you guys hear it? Because he was like, I'm never going to play it. I'm less likely to play it now than ever. And then I'm like, Hey, just give it away to someone who might use it. And then he's like, well, I might play it someday. Yeah. I mean, come on, Brian, get rid of those old newspapers. He's got his closet. I don't collect, I throw shit away. I throw all my shit away. I don't. I don't believe you're I don't think you're a hoarder I don't yeah, you come over here. You see I'm and also you every space I've ever seen in your like home just doesn't have a bunch of trash in it. So I don't know

I'm guessing you're not it's Legos, but yeah, my house is really well My my house is very well Like when you leave this office, you don't see all the Legos. You see art that we bought. And there's a closet downstairs that has some board games in it. And I was going to ask where you stored them. Yeah, that's in a closet downstairs. I see them a lot.

They go come in and get in the closet to find something. And then you see the board games and you're like, oh What if we learned how to play these things and then kind of walk away and just I have a game I think you would like Brian if you get back into your board game phase I think the game Colt Express would be a game that you would like I'm writing it down in my notes down You don't need to buy another fucking game. Oh, you do, because that might spark your love for the other games. I'm trying to like get to get the fire ignited. Cold Express, the board is a wild west train.

So it comes with like John knows exactly what he's doing here. Comes with like four train cars. And then you play as like Ryan's walking while you're really Googling it right now, like looking at serious. He's considering making this purchase. You don't need another board game. It's already 60 bucks. Oh my God.

It's a really fun game. And I know I think you would like it, Brian. It's very fun. You basically do these like shoot out duels with like you play as different villains in the Wild West and you're on this these like train cars and you're shooting each other and stuff and it's very you know what can I you're not really doing that stuff what do you mean when you say that what does that mean you're fucking imagination you have to use your imagination what do you it's a beautiful game

I I really hear actually doing what are you actually doing what you're actually doing. What are you actually doing? What are you actually doing? I'm looking at the game. Can I say, can I recommend a game for Brian too? And John knows this one. This is a classic. And I think I might actually bring this to the summit this year, John. Camel up. Oh yeah. Camel up. Camel up. Great. I'll search that one too. Of course you're going for the big box with all the expansions and everything. You don't need to get. OK. Why would I buy the one without all the pieces? That's a no, that's not what an expansion is, but it's fine. Oh, Sheriff would be fun, I think. I think I think. Yeah. Have you played? Yeah.

I'm so Brian. Brian, you have some like you have some posts and stuff. And that is controversial. On the step in on the show, we read posts. We don't go through things for Brian to buy. OK. Yeah. What are you talking about?

Yeah, you do. Is it controversial? We're trying to cut back, OK? Is it controversial? Brian's capitalist corner, where we convince Brian to buy stuff. I don't think much. It don't think.

No, it doesn't. One just said the name of the board game? Sorry. Go ahead. Yeah, it seems it looks fun as hell. Is it controversial to say I still really like Monopoly? Sorry if this isn't an original thought. I don't browse here much, but even knowing everything I know about Monopoly, having read all the arguments about bad game

design and having played much better games, I still have loads of fun playing it. My brain says it's a bad game, but having played much better games. I still have loads of fun playing it. My brain says it's a bad game, but something about trying to build a set, making deals and hoping for a bit of luck makes monopoly quite engaging. I know I'm not the only one because my friends are still up to play it, but I only ever hear negative opinions of it online. So the first reply is I really don't like being one of those

your fun is wrong type people but I feel if people don't do this about monopoly please your fun is wrong it with the board game community is I don't they're so gatekeeping in a way like because they're like no What do you mean you play? Sorry? You don't play. Sorry. That's a shit game like this guy. Sorry is a game for children. No, it's for adults But I feel if people I have sorry sliders Downstairs. Oh, okay. That's another one of your collection Yeah

But I feel if people play Monopoly correctly per the actual rules without house ruling stuff, it would go over better. Still not well. And I still don't like it, but I think it would be better. So they're saying make new rules, which we have tons of different variations of. Oh, I know. I think it could be a good game. What it would need. You got to change the rules. You'd want to introduce different new pieces. The board would have to change considerably. And then I think you might have some, this guy goes, got it right there. It's the house rules that really kill the game and give it a bad rep. I really liked the game when playing with

the actual rules, but not some shitty one made up by whiny kids and teenagers. That has got to be played with cash. Wait, who's, how do you end up playing rules made up by whiny teenagers? Well, that's... Like how does that happen? All the teens these days are putting their phones away and playing Monopoly. And coming up with all their own fucked up rules.

Yeah, they're like, man, hey, you heard, let's play a little fucking loppy, but let's fucking do it. Fucking it's not even right. It's not even a part of the word. Let's play a little loppy. And you know, you know, we ain't going house rules. You know, we're going crazy.

All of the rules. Is that what you think it's called? Fucking game. Oh, I got to get a game of loppy in. But my whiny teenagers are changing all the rules. It's actually Polly. Oh, yeah. But Polly guys are different. That's a different.

All you guys are different thing. And I didn't want to mention that because Brian got it. It would be going on. So many. This guy, Darvonon, 1984 says, do you really quote play monopoly though? There's no real choices to make. And it's explicitly designed as an educational tool by a socialist to show that private ownership of real estate means the richest person will mathematically trend towards

owning everything. So I don't think that's right. But that is a good lesson. Yeah. Well, there is a, I, there is a guy that does accidentally say, uh, he, he, he steps in it by saying that Winston Churchill said something about socialism and he got fucking buried in there. I didn't put that in the game, but this guy goes, uh, there's, he quotes, there's Socialism and he got fucking buried in there But this guy goes there's he quotes there's no real choices to make he goes I disagree with that The only thing the game does for you is decide where you will land which properties to buy what kind of trades to make with

People and when to buy houses Etc are all decisions that you have to make making a bad trade could be what loses the game for you And here's the thing about that or all decisions that you have to make. Making a bad trade could be what loses the game for you. And here's the thing about that. No, every person on the planet strategy of monopoly is just buy everything you land on. Like that is nobody. I guess you've never played Loppy with me. No, I don't.

I don't go for that at all. I've got a very. Yeah. Me and the Loppy boys play it a little bit different. Yeah, we do things a little different over at the Loppy house. Well, let's take a look at some reviews. Very excited for this. I looked up the Monopoly Ultimate Banking Own it all game. It's it's got a it's got a card you can swipe instead of the money.

And I think that McCann... What do you mean by that? You get a credit card at the beginning. Instead of a bank, it's like electronic. So it tracks how much money you own and everything. I see. Okay. Very cool. Very cool. I love when... It's inspiration from electronic mall madness. It's very cool though when technology sort of is like, hey, let me step in and help you out with your old school board games and just improve them a little bit. I love that. And I don't know. This guy says one star boring game. There's no intellectual stimulation.

Original Monopoly is best. Stop reinventing the wheel. This game's for people who are too young or too bland to understand the strategy and flavor of the original monopoly. So what is it? That's just because there's an electronic swiper to monitor? Yeah. Sounds like this guy was a fucking classic uncle cheater. And now this is an uncle cheater.

And now he's like, this game sucks now. You know, like that because there's checks and balances. Sounds like somebody doesn't like such an easy game to cheat out. If you were, it was like the fucking easiest game. Even if you weren't the banker, it was pretty easy because you know, yeah, I mean, it was, yeah. Well, this guy gives it to one star. He says too confusing, not fun to play anymore.

They made the game too confusing as they changed the classic rules of the game and made everything via the electronic banking unit. We had to stop and read the manual for every step of the game. And even after reading the manual, it was very easy to do it incorrectly. They took the fun out of the game with this version. I just threw out the whole thing as it's very useless in this format Oh, and then ill issue that sounds like yeah You didn't figure out how to work the monopoly card machine It seems like it's probably pretty easy

But yeah, I mean some people are just resistant to that type of change But for I love when technology steps in one one. Why did he buy it to it's for ages eight and up? Well, that's fucking every game says that. This guy goes, oh, and they made it limited to four players, which with this version, which was another poor decision. So Marmar gives it one. We're out there playing Monopoly with more than four people. I mean, that's going to take so long.

That's crazy to think about. That is crazy. This guy goes interesting concept, but lag and playtime since we are waiting for machine. This killed me. This is the thing that you see in a lot of these reviews. Everyone seems to despise setting up and cleaning up after a game of Monopoly. What an assumption. It doesn't really seem like a game of monopoly. What an assumption.

It doesn't really seem like a lot of work at all. One of the easiest given what modern board games are like. It's one of the easiest. Like, what do you talk to for the money? So you just put the money back in the tray. Like just throw all the houses in the box and you pack it up. You're done. Yeah.

We have to clean. Oh, ever. Like that's like you're not like connecting stuff or like stick. Yeah. That's like, yeah. What cold express. You literally have to build the train cars every time you play the game. I know I was looking at it. I think I'm going to pick that one up. Everyone likes the power. You build the stuff. Yeah. Yeah. Oh yeah. There's so many pieces. That's the thing that really attracts me to a board game is like, I like a game with a lot of bees. Well, if you're getting the one with the expansions, there's a second train that can come beside

it's like a Robert train. Just get a Lego. I have one downstairs. Everyone seems to despise setting up and cleaning up after a game of Monopoly. So this concept of paperless intrigued us. The reviews did not really mention that the wait time for the machine to process the input of cards. It was a lot of repetitive actions

since it did not understand what we were trying to do. So it took the fun out of the, the machine didn't understand what we're trying to fucking do. It was like maybe they were trying to trick it and then say, I can trick AI. Oh, you can't trick a house rule situation. We're trying to put our hat. We are trying to put five hundred dollars on free parking to start the game,

and it wouldn't let us do it. Yeah. Yeah. Machine. Initially, the kids were so excited to have cards just like mom and dad, that they wanted to use the cards for mom bucks as Chorin incentivizes around the he says incentivizes around the house they played with the cards like that for a while accomplishing little tasks around the house and getting paid electronically i'd say stick to the original tree killing method because the kids would

get bored waiting for the machine to process the info so he just gave it one star because he didn't play the game he never played it he used it as a way to give his children money fake money They used it as a way to pay his children. I Mean that is kind of funny But as you know, I does sort of make a little bit of sense It is kind of like a fake depending on what the age they're at They can start learning about how that kind of stuff works, even with like electronic money and how you like get money for doing things and exchange it for stuff. And it's kind of a good learning thing. But I don't know if you have to get the whole game. I think

you can get just some little fake money. Sure. You know, you can just get a little fake notes. This person I love because this is what explains why this is bad. This this setup is bad. This game is horrible. One star. I didn't mind that this game wasn't like the old monopoly. I thought it might be easier and fun to play with the bank card machine, but it was a mess. It was annoying to keep swiping the cards, which, by the way, that's why you get the fucking machine is to swipe the cards.

And if you didn't do it in the right order, it got all screwed up. That's why you get the fucking machine is to swipe the cards. And if you didn't do it in the right order, it got all screwed up. Everything went downhill when we realized the machine wasn't keeping track of who owned what property. And I was very careful about which card I swiped when a property was purchased. The money wasn't right either. Payments for rent weren't showing up on the accounts. Also the houses fly everywhere if you're not careful with the dice because there's nothing to hold

them down. Oh, the steering wheel, the steering wheel just flies off. This is, this is like, wow. It's just like we failed miserably at playing the game. Like a lot of the mistakes, like if you put in the wrong thing, it doesn't even let you like there is a lot of acknowledgement of their errors. My kid pushed the board off of the kitchen table and there's no way to secure the board to my house. Like, like, are they playing on a table that is the exact same size as the board? Of course.

That's how you is that not how you always play stuff? I mean, I don't know. I play on a I play on a bigger surface, but yeah, that's it. This sounds like they were. Yeah, they were really struggling to play the game, struggling with a lot of the different aspects of it. I'm I don't know. What's the overall rating on this, Brian?

This last sentence before before I tell you that he goes, I thought this would be easier and more fun to play, but it just caused a lot of tears and frustration. I do not recommend this game. He cried about it, or the kids maybe cried. People were crying. This game has a 4.6 stars out of 13,537. It's a very good game. These people are more than likely than these people are just struggling to figure out how

to do it. The machine. Yeah, they're having trouble. This person says to modern, not as fun as the original. This game was okay. The modern aspect of it with the banking card seemed cool, which made me want to buy it. But once I played it, it was confusing to figure out. I just felt the whole game.

I was just tapping my card on the unit rather than the original monopoly I'm used to where we exchange money and are more interactive and into the game with physical money taking He thought he wanted to buy the one without the physical money because he said it seemed cool And then you're like I got it and I was like I like the one with the physical seen cool. And then you're like, I got it. And I was like, I like the one with the physical money. And it's funny that maybe he wanted it to have, you know, like the choice, like cash or card. So he was never going to use the machine, like,

but he wanted to have the option. I guess that sometimes it's nice when you're just a consumer that you want to have the options for payment, even if you're not going to use them, you know, with this version, it seemed a little boring as an adult. And I didn't feel like I was actually playing a game with buying and selling property rather than just sitting back and tapping a card when it was my turn. It took the whole find out account in your money and buying property, way too modern for me. Some games are classic. Stick to their original.

If you ask me way too modern, this person got very mad. One star wasted money. You are unable to know what money you have left in the card. Also if you were mistakenly charged twice, there's no way to turn back a transaction. It's like what I think buying Bitcoin should have felt. Prefer the original and even better, the junior version. Okay. Okay.

This might be a kid. This might be a kid. The kid's buying crypto? Yeah. Yeah. Wait a second. Yeah, crypto. But okay.

Hang on. Yeah, you're right. It seems like only an. Yeah, crypto. But OK, hang on. Yeah, you're right. It seems like only an adult mentioned crypto. It's like we found a very stupid person because now it goes totally not for little kids. Now the whole rest of this way. Back up, back up, back up a little bit. Yeah, sorry. I talked over to back up a little bit. He goes for the part where, yeah, where he talks about.

Yeah, the review. Yeah, he goes, prefer the original and even better, the junior versions. Totally not for little kids. Now, the rest of this review is in all caps. OK, so this is a very angry person. He goes, worst of all, you have a laser light coming out from the banking machine, pointing your eyes all the game, which I sincerely believe might be pointing your eyes all the game, which I sincerely believe might be prejudicial for the eyes, not to say kids eyes wasted. What were they trying to say?

Judicial. It's prejudicial. I don't. Yeah, I'm going to share. So you guys, it's perjudicial. But that's not even the right context for that word. So perjudicial. Oh my God.

It's right there. It's perjudicial for the eyes. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. I mean, it's perjudicial. I'm going to start. You know, it's funny is that review was July 2020. So it was like peak COVID. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Let's get like, let's get like a fun board game. Well, we're kind of locked down indoors and then she gets one and starts worrying that her. Oh, there's lasers in my damn eyes Let's take a look at another big problem in the board game community before we go to the grand finale Which is reviews of cards against humanity? Stephanie, did you want it? Did you want to say something? Yeah did?

Did Brian say let's take a nook? No, I don't think Hi Tell you what I had in here. I mean, I said that I got no idea what you're talking about. I just I noticed that you sort of my hand up. You reacted and I said, oh, there's stuff that I think I was up to say. Excuse me. Was that a flub? Yeah, my point the reason might be that my my my intuition is no,

I don't think he said it, but Stefan does seem to believe. So you guys go ahead, make your own decision. You can write us then write us in guyspodcast.gmail.com. That's not our email. We do not own that email. I do have an email that I've never said, but say it right now. People found the guy at gmail.com. What is it called?

Found a guy at gmail.com. That's a good found a guy at gmail.com. What does it call? I found a guy at gmail.com. That's a good found a guy at gmail.com. All right, folks. All right. For people to send in guys that they found. I did think of that, but then I never said it. Folks, you know what to do. Send us send Brian all kinds of fun stuff that you would like him to see. Yeah. Yeah.

If you want to buy a board game, just send him a link to the board game and he will buy it. Plaid artist, Plaid artist says, my spouse loves board games, but doesn't handle losing well. Any advice? My spouse and I love to play board games, but we often run into the issue that she hates losing and generally is a pretty poor sport unless she wins. Not an issue anywhere else, really. But I just wanted to get some advice on how to handle someone who handles losing sorely. I'm not a bold

and brash winner, never have been, I know losing can suck, but I find it hard sometimes to have fun winning or even playing games if my wife is playing against me, sometimes preferring to just fudge roles and bend rules to bend rules to her favor to keep her happy, or maybe more often than not just playing board games. So he wants to play board games, his wife stinks. This guy is fucking, he's taking a fall, I mean he is, he's letting his wife win. He is.

On to that level, I sympathize with this person, not to, I mean I'm not, sympathize maybe isn't the right word, I don't with this person. I'm not sympathize. Maybe isn't the right word. I don't experience it. Empathize. Which one? Which one is the one I should be? Whichever one I get one of the means. But because this does empathize in this case, I think. This implies would sort of indicate that you have the same thing with your partner.

And Ariel listens. So I just did want to clarify that. So yeah, this sounds like a nightmare. I would say you can't play board game, but she probably wants to, right? No, well, she knows he's into, I think the key here is she probably knows he really likes board games.

And she was like, let's play some board games. But I will tell a story here. Me and Gwen and Kate got into playing phase 10 for some reason at a period. And we would just sit at the table and play phase 10. In phase 10. I don't know what phase 10 is. Are you gonna explain?

It's a card game. But it's like, you can get very far behind very quickly in the game. Cause it's really like luck of the draw and stuff like that and similar to it's similar to Rummy it's like an older it's like an older game and when we were playing I only play Pappy no that's a different thing okay but when you play and you're wait when we were way behind the people that were way behind were fucking miserable

It didn't matter who it was It was just like just fucking game fucking sucks and it would like turn into this real dark thing We had to quit play that support that's poor game design John agree is that poor game design where you allow people to fall so far behind that they have no chance to win early on in the game Yeah, yeah, I think so. I think so for sure. I think that's why a lot of like more modern games consist of like building, like you're kind of building your own thing. That like even if you're not competing, you can't really tell so much that you're far behind.

Exactly. Quantify, like, you know, it's less. You can kind of tell like, oh, maybe I'm losing, but we haven't calculated the points. Yeah. There's not. A lot of modern games are like, we calculate the points at the very end.

That's very smart. It's already with the bonus stars. You know, you're like, I'm pretty sure I landed on more question mark spaces. So. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

This, that sounds like, yeah, that sounds like it's a fault of the game designer If you're having a game where that can happen or Brian could you have possibly been playing with very very bad players? I'm gonna tell you I talk so much shit when I play a board game. Cause I found if you had to, what the fuck are you talking about? Like I just, the whole time I'm talking shit. Do you talk shit before you play it too? Like you've got, I played, you're like, wait, all I play is I'm going to fuck you up in this. And yes. Yeah. When we play 10 tonight, it's going to be more like phase 11.

Cause I'm fucking better than you. Are you like, you're doing it? So everyone's having a good time with it. I assume. I do it for a reason. I do it because when you beat me, it feels really good. And then if I win, it also feels really good for me. Like they get to feel really good if they win. If I win, it feels great. You're doing like wrestling shit, like, you know, you're the villain heel kind of that's wrestling mentality. Definitely. Oh, when people beat me, they're really happy.

You know, so you're so you're you're annoying. You're annoying people so much during the game that you're becoming like a villain like figure to the point where it's creating like ecstasy for people when they're able to defeat you because they see you as a type of an evil person. That's that's very, very cool. This person says, Whenever I lost, I made a point of saying something like darn I wanted to win then I'd reach across the table and shake my partner's hand and say good game Yeah, that's the way to do it Really wanted to win that

Really wanted to win that one there. Hey, well you played better on that one there Do that to your your your, your partner. Like that, like you're playing against the person you live with and love and probably suck and fuck with and all that stuff. And you're reaching across the table. Like, yeah, yeah. Beat me again. He goes, I did it every time.

I lost to show what graceful losing was. After a few months, I started doing it when I'd win too. It seems to have created a positive ending to games now, regardless of who wins or how devastating the loss. Can you imagine if that person's partner knew the manipulation? They're like, hey, let's do a little experiment. I'll do this and I'll show them that and I'll pretend to win and lose. This one's even better.

This sounds like an issue to discuss with a therapist as well. So go to a therapist because of my board game. I mean, no, but kind of it does sound like probably somebody who has a lot of trouble losing in a board game. If it becomes like a serious thing where it's like troublesome for other people and you're an adult, I think, you know, I'm not a big like, hey, everyone go to therapy. I think it's good. I go. But I think that might be and you know, that might indicate you've maybe talked to somebody. If you're allowing yourself to get that angry over something, I know, I don't think so.

You don't have to play the game, you know, and, the thing is, listen, if you're angry, fine. It makes me feel good that I beat you because now you're pissed that I beat you. And like, that's a good thing. And then a few hours later, everything's fine. Uh, said that communication is key and this is something you two should talk about. Your relationship will benefit from it if you figure out why losing a game, always or only to you, bothers her so much. My wife got really mad at me in our first games of Hansa to Tonica,

and we talked it out in a long conversation that opened our eyes to some totally non-board game related stuff in our marriage. Well, you don't say, I mean, obviously if you're getting there, there is, it's a, it's a deeper thing. Obviously it's not the board game. I don't, and I guess there are some people who are that into it, but John, would you like, do you ever get mad honestly and like cause like a, be honest here? How do you react? Cause you play a lot of board games. You play a lot of games. And what is your I mean, I just get so fucking keep in mind.

Well, keep in mind, we could also ask somebody else who might play with you. Just keep you know, Becca and I do not. Becca doesn't like playing games against me. And she says it's because I always win. And she doesn't like the way I act when I win. It's just because I've played tons of board games over my life. And I am a sore winner. No question about it.

That's fine. So we play a lot of co-op games together. That's kind of like if we play a board game, it's often like some kind of co-op game. Which did you ever consider maybe like letting somebody else win sometimes? No, I have not considered that. Okay, I like that. I like that Man is just doing the thumb right now and no one is even paying attention to it We're just like having conversations Stephens like, you know paying attention our conversation. He's Like even like the last time well he didn't I

don't think he did it when I was on most recently but before that he was doing the thumb when Chris was talking about like a scare during the pregnancy oh well that was really inappropriate wonder just nothing here and then just to be clear not just a scare during the see but like an emergency section that where we had to get rushed to the hospital in order to have a C section. I was going thumb child and Brian was doing his thumb stuff, but at least he did it last time he did it like with Dan, the cod on here and Dan, the kind of couldn't even tell because it's so there's so much light coming in from

outside. Yes, you can see it. So it's a realistic looking thumb. That's the whole idea. That's exactly. Well, it's not there's so much light coming in from outside. Yes, you can see it. So it's a realistic looking thumb. That's the whole idea. That's exactly. Well, it's not a fake thumb. Actually, it's my real thumb. Right. His real thumb lights up for true. And I did at that time, Chris, because I thought you needed cheering up.

I thought I could use some wonder to ask people to make them happy. A lot of people have said when they're talking about really difficult medical things, that one thing that always cheers them up is their friend doing rudimentary magic. Oh, yeah, it was. I think people just think it was the timing was a bit. Yeah, maybe. That's what I'm sorry.

Next time something bad happens, I'll probably still do it anyway. You're saying the next time something bad happens to me. Okay. My wife is like, I got some bad news. I'm like, let me run up to the office real quick. You start pulling a bunch of scarves out of your. Oh, buddy. I wish I wish he would fucking do something that advanced. I wish he would like, can some people please send him real magic to the to the you just haven't opened it's in a box you haven't opened yet. There's a few of them in one of these drawers back here. Yeah. Let's let's take a look at the best reviewed thing I've ever seen in my life. OK, Cards Against Humanity.

Oh, wow. A party game for horrible people. These are, there's some variations of this one as well. Some very cool variations of this one. I'm a big Cards Against Head. I've been playing since the early days. I'm huge into it. So this, here we go.

This is my time to shine now. This is the Deadpool fans card game. You know what I mean? I've been playing since the early days. I'm huge into it. So this here we go. This is my time to shine now. This is the Deadpool fans card game. You know what I mean? It's like absolutely. Yeah, we like we like deep pool and we like fucking cards. Okay, like cards. We call it cards as well.

No, no better way to cap off a good loppy session than with a little bit of cards. Oh buddy. The only thing that gets me fucking harder than a game of Loppy is playing some fucking cards with the boys. And learning the locker policy at the club. That gets you worked up too. Listen to these reviews. Listen to, before we start reading these are,

we're reading all five star reviews because it has 4.8 stars and it's been reviewed I'm we're reading all five star reviews because It has four point eight Stars and it's been reviewed 138 thousand six hundred times I've never seen anything that well reviewed ever That's what so it's safe to say it's one of the best products Yeah, this guy griffs a lot of these are guys are riffing in the right. They're funny guys. They're playing the funniest game.

Yeah, there's a reason they like a funny game. It's not because they're unfunny. Well, I guess we'll find out this is not this is five stars. And it says, we'll ruin your life. OK, this is not a review about playing cards against humanity. It's a review of the fallout endured from playing cards against humanity. Take it as a warning if you will.

If you aren't a horrible person already, you will soon be. You'll play cards against humanity and as others have said, you will be shocked, appalled. Worst of all, you will learn to adapt. You'll reach for your smartphone and search for terms you've drawn, such as the Ubermensch and heteronormativity and the three fifths compromise.

You'll commit these and many other newly learned words to memory. Those are very- Ubermensch is not, I mean, that's just Superman. What the? Oh, this is- It's not great. It's not great. It's not good. This is not great. It's not good. This belongs there.

I say chive side. This is very chivey. This review is the most chivey thing since the boob song. I think this is chive ish chive ish for sure. And that's where it all comes crashing down. At first you might allow front, but to casually wander its way into a conversation. Oh, I can't take this Brian.

How much Brian I Brian so excited when I get so excited when I, when I really, what he really is able to really upset me in this way. How much more is there to this? I like the idea of like, just after I started playing this game, just started using the term front, but oh, I know. Couldn't stop myself slowly starts creeping into the diva. Not killer. Wait, when is it? When is this review from?

What date? I don't have a date actually. Oh, OK. Yeah, I don't have the date for some reason. He goes, at first you might allow front, but to casually wander its way into a conversation here and there. As more of your subconscious fights to unleash the trauma, you'll find yourself uttering nipple blades and mouth herpes and the most And the most unacceptable of times, you'll visit the Cards Against Humanity website and bomb them with suggestions for new cards like cutting the cheese at a funeral and sizzling. For those of you who don't know, for those of you who don't know, cutting the cheese means farting and a funeral, let me tell you, that's not where you want to be. It's a little bit rude because the smell could be smelly.

The smell could cause some issues. I just realized what the worst job in the world would be. It's the person responsible for like sifting through the Cards Against Humanity submission. I think you would kill yourself. Like to me that's like the the really underpaid workers in like the Philippines Who have to watch all the gore videos on Facebook? Yeah, I think it's worse than that This is this is really like you'll find yourself making suggest like he's owning up to yeah These are some of his suggestions. The one that he chose to put in is those are the ones he came here for at a funeral and scissoring, just scissoring. Cutting the cheese is sorry. The phrase isn't just scissoring. Is it? Yeah. That

was the second one. It's just scissoring, right? Yeah. I'm not even at a funeral. You know, and scissoring. What do you mean? What about scissoring at a funeral? Have you ever thought about that? Yeah. You should have. Wait, how does this fucking game? I know I did a joke where I said I love this thing, but how does this fucking game work?

Well, like you have two cards. There's like black cards and white cards. So the black cards are like a prompt where it's usually like a fill in the blank or it's like a question. And then the white card either fills in that blank or answers that question. So whoever the dealer is plays the black card, then everyone else at the table, you have like a hand of white cards. You try to come up with the funniest one. Exactly. And then whoever the dealer is, you just play them all out on the table and then the dealer just picks whichever one they think is the funniest.

Oh, me thinks some hilarity may ensue. Well, okay. There's still more to this review. Please tell us more. Soon you will meet up with new people to inflict cards against humanity on them as they'll be and they will be hooked. You'll receive a random voicemails and texts asking for another hit of that eight ounces of sweet Mexican black tar heroin and you will comply because you're just

as hooked as they are. They'll bring new friends in to freshen up the game. You'll feel a rush as the look of shame crosses their innocent eyes as they went around by playing amputees against your white people like Ah, I was just throwing this guy's email Brian. I was just throwing that card away, they'll proclaim, but you know the sad truth. You'll buy the expansion pack, you'll host parties where you play through every card in both boxes. You'll buy the expansion pack, you'll host parties where you play through every card in both boxes. You'll wonder where the time went. Your face will hurt from laughing

so much. Your friends will buy their own sets and the infection will be passed on. A team of rescue workers will find you weeks later in your closet frazzled, emaciated and stinking from quote, soiling yourself because you just couldn't stop with cards against humanity against yourself. The light of day will strike your eyes and you'll gaze upon your saviors with pensive anticipation and say, wanna play? Ryan, can I ask you a question?

What's that man's name? I know it's a man. Mikey G? Mikey G, thank you. Cause I just wanted to get a name for the guy that I hate more than anybody else. That we have ever had on here. That person is like everything wrapped up.

That is really- Yeah, the way they write, they try to do like very flowery, funny language. It's very Reddit-coded. It's very Chive-coded. I mean, it's somebody who plays Cards Against Humanity, I guess. Exactly. It plays it a lot, too.

Is this a good time to reveal that I just recently wrote for Cards Against Humanity? Nice. What? Did you think about putting scissoring in there or cut the cheese? I might have had scissoring in there. Yeah. Okay.

Wait, wait, what is that? What do you mean you wrote for Cards Against Humanity? What does that mean? Exactly what I just said. Yeah. So there was like a Canadian comedian because they do a Cards Against Humanity Canadian version as well. Oh yeah, I saw that.

They have all kind of like, they have so many versions. Exactly. And so he was just like, I guess he got, someone got in touch with him or he knew someone involved with Cards Against Humanity and they asked him if there were other comedians that would want to write cards. So he just reached out to me and the money was good. So I just said, sure. And I wrote a bunch of white cards for the next cards. Can you give us some of your, give us a couple of yours.

I just want to reach out to this guy so bad to be like, well, buddy, I fucking, I did it, dude. I got paid to do it, guess what? I got paid to do it. You are so far behind. I mean, here's some of mine. Look at this. This is the fucking level you need to be at.

Yeah, you kidding me? cut the cheese at a funeral. Here's what will get you the fucking money. You should fucking kill yourself, you piece of shit. So these were all these were all they wanted them to be Canada themed. Yeah. So we've got skydiving and landing on the CN Tower. Asshole first. OK. I've also got skydiving and landing on the CN tower asshole first. Okay.

I've also got, uh, cause they, they do like also don't even do a sentence. So I re I tapped into our friends, the bare naked ladies and just wrote, chat wrote down chickadee China, the Chinese chicken. That's a good one reference. Okay. Great line from, uh, from one week, you know, uh, what else? What else do we have here? We've got... Oh, this is... I've got... These are so bad, which is fine. I mean, that's what you're writing, dude. Yeah, what are you getting? I mean, listen, I think there's no question about it that...

I hope you don't take this as an insult, but those are perfect for cards against the He-Man. Yeah. Yeah. Okay, this one I did actually like. Okay. I've got one hand in my pocket and the other one is jacking off.

Okay, that's good. Oh, that's a good one. That's a good one, that's a good one. It's a play on it. Maybe two good. Because it's Canadian, yeah. They probably won't put that one in. Yes, they're like, they'll be like, well, what?

I don't get it. The people who are at Cards Against Humanity will be like, I don't understand it. Wouldn't you jack off with the hand in your pocket? Well, I think it would be funnier if you jacked off with two hands, you know? Yeah. Well, what was your deepest cut? What was your deepest like trying to heighten it? Like deep, deepest cut was the cheese at a funeral Hey

Yeah, but in my case it was Brian Mulroney's funeral. Yes Canadian he's a Canadian he's an old prime minister Are you saying like deepest like like pop culture cut on here? sure, yeah, cuz I feel like if if Like, you know when you think of like it's like oh poutine or like a beaver yeah right but like yeah I see this beaver I did listen I don't want to I don't want to I don't want to perpetuate the stereotype but there's a literal beaver that lives down the road

from me at the river we all see it I see it regularly when I go out at night if I go after night I seen it like beaut beautiful in the in the moonlight just like Shimmering swimming through the water and I went and got like honestly a moonlit beaver. That would be a good card. Yeah Did you see So I Will say it's like it is a stereotype that Canadians but I do actually know a beaver. You have a beaver who is your neighbor. I've seen a beaver too. I know one for sure that is going in. I'll tell you that right now. This is my like I am positive they will use this one. Yeah. When that squirt tastes like

maple syrup. Yeah. Wait they'll use that? Oh Oh, 100%. That's going in 100,000%. That's such a hard way to say, but that's a little devilish. So I mean, that does make sense. So that's why they like want stuff like that because it is kind of like they want to be pushing it a bit. Yeah. You know what I mean? Oh yeah, for sure.

That is absolutely going in there. So let's read a couple more. Henry Wetworth, five stars. That one absolutely going in there. So let's read a couple more. Henry Wettsworth gave it five stars. That one's pretty good as well. This court took Mipples. That was pretty fucking pretty good. Thank you. Henry Wettsworth gave it five stars in the reviews on April 20th, 2024.

And he says, it works fine. If Henry Cavill isn't part of the 40K series, then I won't watch it. Well, that's good. isn't part of the 40k series that I won't watch it well that's We're an hour and 13 minutes, and you're gonna get into warhammer I can't handle that I made a damn game, so we're gonna read a couple more of these more. I'll play a damn game Okay, I know you guys know warhammer you guys know about it Oh, I okay, and you know that I'm a video games and I friends who are into painting the I mean, it's like it's really That's a whole thing. It's a huge thing. But but oh their God is Henry Cavill He is their absolute fucking God

Handsome and cool and he like builds PCs and plays warhammer and he's a warhammer fanatic He's like a warhammer guy a hundred percent and he's like would played Superman so they yeah You know in the Witcher because he loved the Witcher. He was a Warhammer fanatic. He's like a Warhammer guy 100% and he's like would played Superman so they Yeah, you know in the Witcher because he loved the Witcher. He was a fan of the books Yeah, yeah, so he was gonna be part that he was gonna be part of the series the they're making a series He was like involved now. It seems like he's not involved. That's what they're all getting super mad I like right. Yeah, cuz I when I was in the UK I was surprised they like Warhammer has a ton of like storefronts cause apparently it's like, Oh yeah. Games workshop, but now it's just called Warhammer Warhammer.

They changed them from games workshop to just Warhammer. So you go around. Yeah. Popular. Like we were in like, right. We were staying like right in downtown Edinburgh. Like I would imagine the most expensive real estate in Edinburgh. And there was like a Warhammer store like right on the main street with like they're killing it. I mean, they're going to be making it because it's so expensive, obviously. And it's like very, very popular.

And then you've got like all probably all the merch and stuff. You can get like Warhammer shirts. And what do you look at? Brian's Brian's. I'm writing down so I don't fuck the game up this time. OK, OK. OK, he's got a book that he's right. I appreciate that. Now I will.

I got my leg. I would say it's pretty presumptuous to say that writing it down will. Oh, it'll get right this time. Fuck the game up. I still think you can, you probably will. James says, fun to play. Always fun to play and whip it out

at a several family events with people who can take a joke. Make sure they can take a joke. You know, this guy says best game ever. My family and I play this game all the time. Some cards are a little lame, but I bought a blank pack and we wrote our own to replace those ones. Can you fucking imagine what he wrote? Yeah. Cards Against Humanity comes with blank cards. Like that's a regular. Yeah, of course. Do you want cards. Like that's a regular. Yeah, of course. Do you want to get your own inside jokes on there? Yeah, I mean, I think I would imagine everyone who gets into it really hard starts thinking like, you know, it would be a good one.

Writing like slurs on it and stuff too. Oh, that's also true. There were like old. I feel like they got rid of a bunch of cards that were like really, really bad. And then probably use the R word on some of the cards for some of the old school players are probably making. We're like old car. I feel like they got rid of a bunch of cards. Yeah, we're like really really bad Use the R word on some of the cards for some of the old school players are probably making their own throwback cards the old ones before Edition cards before the world got woke. Yeah

Card with like the n-word on it is like getting like a black lotus like first it is Weird because it is very valuable, but you know, you don't want to have it This guy goes uh, this is the last one and and the review says better than anticipated If you're sensitive do not purchase it appears people are so sensitive and strive to believe be politically correct. That's fine Don't purchase this game. However, if you want laughs and laughter with tears and this is the one for you It's already a classic and it lives up to its name I give it five stars because it is enjoy if you dare so as you're saying he's warning you want laughter with tears You know, let me say we're talking tears from excessive laughter tears, you know, we're talking tears from excessive laughter, not a mixture of sadness. You want tears, play the Monopoly game with the card.

Oh yeah, that will drive you up the wall unless you're 98% of the people who bought it. The houses and the hotels are just constantly spilling off the board. They fly off out the window. Yeah, you know, they're in my garden. My cat's fucking digging him up days later. Well, the guy this guy is responding to nobody. It's got a 4.8 and it's got 137,000 reviews. Who is he mad at?

That's being politically correct, you know? Yeah, it's very well reviewed. Everybody loves it. It's extremely popular. All right, here we reviewed. Everybody loves it. It's extremely popular. All right, here we go. Here we go. This is a game. You know how we have not done one of these in a while.

And so you guys are about to find out why. Well, these are there's going to be fake game names and there's going to be real game names. We're going to go. Chris is going to kill on this. Maybe I think John's going to be fake game names and there's going to be real game names. We're going to go. Chris is going to kill on this. Oh, my. Maybe I think John John's going to dominate. This is like he made me do this one time with who was it? It was it was some band.

It was like a pop star bands. No, it was it was Steve from Pup on the prog rock episode. Oh, yeah. Yes. It was no fair. He was so unfair. I fooled him, though. I did fool him a couple of times. I have a couple of times. Yeah. Oh, yeah. You can definitely fool me.

There's so many board games. Chris, the first game is called Crud Jango. Is that real or is that fake? Oh, I did. That's a really good one. That's like it's a really good one, because it's like they would have some dumbass shit like that You know what I mean, but I certainly have never heard of it just to be clear It's not like one of those ones are like, oh, that's definitely a game I've never heard of and and say it again Brian

Krijang go It sounds like it's like a mixture of games and I think Brian would do that. Yeah Jenga and something, uh, Krijang. Go, I'm going to say that it is real. Okay. John Krijang. Go. Yeah. I, I actually don't think Brian could make up Krijang. No, I see it in his eyes.

God damn it. He's so proud of himself. He can't he made it up. I'm telling you he did step it. Say he made up. I'm saying this is fake. Yeah.

John, what did you say? You said this is I said fake. No, I changed my mind. He changed it to think I say both of them. This is a self-sacred too ridiculous. Steph, I changed my mind. He changed it to think I say both of them This is a self-sac too ridiculous step and I could tell you from his face the eve I a hundred percent. I just can't hide it on my I was trying to like look forward and not My face at all like very serious. I've done so many podcasts with you now You know that I can see that look when there are definitely like sub types of board games where they just have like a nonsense name Because they're trying to be yeah search engine optimized and they want like the association of I kind of

Was a good one. That was a good Chris. You're going to go first again. Or we'll start with Stefan. We'll go around. But yeah, yeah, yeah, you're right. This is the new one. Mara Kaibo, Stefan Mara. I'm going to say real. All right, John, they like to name board games after cities.

I believe that's in Venezuela. So I'll just say I'll say yes. Chris Real, I mean, I'm thinking of like Mar-a-Lago though. Oh, you know what I mean? So what's the name again? Mara Kaibo, Mara Kaibo. How do you spell that? M-A-R-O-C-A-I-B-O.

Mara Kaibo, he's a motherfucker's cheating. What? I just know how to spell. I know how to spell Mark. I'm talking about Chris is cheating. He didn't answer and he's looking down at his phone right now. That is a fake game. Actually, that is a real game.

Yeah. Fuck, I googled it. Are you kidding me? I literally tried to cheat and I. I go over here. Google did. Are you kidding me? I literally tried to cheat and I over here, fields of Arl. We'll start with John fields of Arl. Okay.

I'm going to need you to spell Arl. A R L E fields. Oh Arl. Okay. Cause there is like a World War I or II battle at Arl, but it's spelled A-R-L-E-S. So I'm going to say this is fake. All right, Chris. I'm going to go with... God, it's such a cool name. Field of Arl.

Field of Arl. I'm gonna cut it's such a cool name field of our I kind of wanted to be a real game because it sounds it sounds like the most boring game ever Really does sound like a real game. I I'm gonna say it's fake. I gotta say it's fake I'm gonna say real Steppen you are correct. Yeah Also ahead three to two with John Chris zero He spent he said he spelled Arl wrong that no, it's literally I googled this. No, no, no, I know I know but the city is Arl with an S. So I might be something different It might not be it might not maybe it's a fantasy city by a famous board game designer

You've a rose sounded like so it sounded like some German shit to me You know, I was just trusting John and that's the last time I'll make that mistake huge mistake Chris All right, we're sorry to lead you astray. We're gonna start with Chris again skitter scatter Scotter Scatter Scotter you I will say, you have done a good job this time. These are the all of these are like none of them for me. I've not recognized a single one of them. I don't think John has either even as a big board game. So you've you know, you've picked really obscure ones and then they all sound

like they could be fake and they could be real. I'm going skittles, what is it? Skitter, scatter scatter Scotter. I think that that's fake. And Stefan, this is tough. This sounds like it could be some game where it's like more of like a physical game. Like it's more like skill based in terms of like, it's more of like a party game

potentially, you know, it's what it kind of sounds like to me.rian would play a lot of party games he goes to a lot of parties it's different kind of party and they got to do something i mean i don't actually go to sex parties i don't know why i gotta do something in the lead up they gotta do something in the lead up sex awfully to get things really moving skitter scatter scter. Yeah I say fake I'm also saying fake you all three got that one right which makes Stefan still in the lead The next one is Ben Franklin's kite I mean, it sounds like the worst game of all time. That's good. It seems like I mean, it sounds like the worst game of all time. That's good. It seems like

It seems like they would just call it like Franklin or something not the full God, but you know what? I mean, like sometimes are you like you're like man? The best fucking game is Ben Franklin's kite. It's called Ben Franklin's They do stupid shit like that nowadays stephen because they've run out of names for sure. They'll do the stupidest shit now. And that Franklin's famous for his kite. Yeah, no, I know. We all know we know that. You know, maybe I'm going to say this is fake.

I just don't know what that game could be. But I think I think I got this wrong. I say fake, though. John, it's tricky. It is tricky because I could see a game where you where it's like there's some kind of. Like it's like historical games like this do exist. Oh, man, it's really hard.

I'm going to I'm going to say that Ben Franklin's kite is fake. All right, Chris. OK, so I am, am of course a hardcore game player and you guys know that. And so I understand the mechanics of the game. And in this instance, it is in my best interest to say the opposite of what Stefan said because I am behind him and I need to catch up to him.

And the only way that I'll be able to do that is by answering differently than him. And so what did you say, Stefan? I said, I said real. Don't let him trick me what did he say that? No he said fake. I said he what he can trick a bit of a gamesmanship. Can't trick AI buddy can't trick AI. All right Stefan sounding a little bit like uh uncle cheater over there. So you are you said real? I said real yeah. So I say fake. No, wait, no, wait, wait. No, no, he said fake. I'm saying real.

I'm saying real. Chris, you were wrong. You're the only one that was wrong on that one. I made up Ben Franklin's kite. I don't care. It was still the right decision because there's not that many more rounds left Oh, yeah. There's like one, two, three, four, five rounds. There's five. My kid, my kid's in the next one is Trey Jan. T-R-A-J-A-N. And John, you're first.

That's real. Chris. Well, John seems confident, so I'm going to say real. That's that's that's a that's an emperor. That's a Roman emperor. I think that's real. Yeah, you got that one right. The next one that Brian Brian ever if I could just give you a bit of feedback, that was your first bad one. I get it. I get it.

The next one is that's pretty clever. And he's back, folks. He's back folks. He's back. That seems like a cards against humanity style, like shitty like car, like a rip off of like, yeah, totally, totally. I'm going to say real for that one.

All right, John. I'm also one behind Stefan. So I'm going to go off. I'm going to go opposite. I'll say, I think it's fake. I think it's fake. And John, John learning from the master and I will do the same. I will say fake Fugazi.

I did think it was real, but I was just like, I got it at some point at some point. We got three left here. Snake charmer gold. Okay. Start the parentheses after snake. Sounds like a goal. That sounds like a gas station condom. Would you put what you do parentheses?

Chris, you're the first answer here. I don't think you'd do parentheses. It's not a parentheses. It's a colon snake charmer, colon, colon, colon. You might do a colon. Yeah You know me and colons, oh buddy, I know your relationship to colons Let's see here I'm going to go ahead and say what I'm gonna say that that's a fake Alright, Stefan. Okay, isn't John? Because I went for John. Go ahead, John.

I'm also saying or snake term or gold. And I will do some more gamesmanship and I'm also going to say fake. All right. You're all right on that one. I made that one up. Two more left. The next one is Imperial settlers. Chris.

And now that's that's one you would do to sound like settlers of Catan and like, you know, so that's like the one you made up. And honestly, now you're nodding your head. Yes. Like, make me think you're that's not true. Playing some head games, but I just kind of feel like Brian's like, oh, I got to have a certain amount of these. And it really kind of has the feel like he had.

It's got he had like maybe four or five good ones, but he's like, I got to have a certain amount of these. And it really kind of has the feel like he had it's kind of he had like maybe four or five good ones, but he's like, I got to do eight. And they really kind of were limping into the finish line here. I'm going to say that's a fake one. Brian made up. I'll say real. All right. And John. Oh, there's only two questions left and I'm too behind, Stefan.

So I will say fake. All right. Imperial Settlers is real. Yeah. And our last one is Kazanga and it's Yeah, Kazanga John first cuz I Fuck it. I'll say cuz ongoing is real All right, Chris. No, it's Stefan next. Stefan, he's Google. I'll say fake.

Uncle Cheaters Googling Chris. It is uncle here. I have to have a talk with them later. It is really now. This is interesting because listen, I'm going to I'm going to go ahead and come clean here. I've tried to cheat here So I googled Kazanga. What did I find? Slang usually in the plural for a woman's breast No, that's gazon I feel like that's buzz on

Yeah, we also have professor Kazanga chief biostatistician and Zambia. This is fake. It's absolutely fake. All right. Well, our winner is Stefan. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. He got all of them right. So I counted.

I've marked them. Stefan wins. That didn't get all of them right. Something is fishy about this. Got all of them right. I counted. I'm more than Stefan wins. That didn't get all of them right. Something is fishy about this. You got all of them right. I did. But you didn't get all of them. If he did, that's even more suspicious. Yeah, because Zanga cheating chat GP.

Now I program leading the and how many did I get? I got zero. I think I got four. I really I really tried to aggressively to to catch up to Stefan by just guessing the opposite He was right every time so John John you'd yet that was a decent showing from you Stefan wins Stefan You can take back bragging rights now back to the block party and what anything you want to say to John now? You've beaten him. He of course was was my favorite you were the underdog here And you've beaten him well well played. I'm reaching out to

But you know what? Good job, Stefan. You know, everybody's got to win some just end the episode. Yeah, we're ending the episode now. I won in the end and one of you guys tell people where to find you. What do you mean you won in the end because I tricked John a bunch of time.
