I guess the game Alex was trying to remember was Atmosfear? I really wanted to buy and play that when it came out, but the house I was living at the time in didn't have a VHS player :-(

Re: favourite crisps - if you ever get chance to try Prawn Cocktail flavour, do so. They are so amazing, easily the best, most addictive flavour. They're even better than salt and vinegar, or sour cream and chives! As far as I know it's mostly a British flavour (I've never seen them anywhere else on my travels), but it's possible someone might have copied or imported them.

All I could think when listening to all that talk about chips.

Hearing you talk about favourite chips made me think about favourites. Why is it that favourites are always framed as only being able to have that one thing? Like if you could only have one drink, or if you could only listen to one album.

Why not flip the question around? If you couldn't eat at one restaurant, which one would you miss the most? I don't have a favourite drink going by only being able to drink it. On the other hand, there's a drink that I'd miss immensely if I could have anything but it, water.

Just an FYI the pumpkins you buy to make into Jack-O-Lanterns aren't the same kind you eat. Eating pumpkins tend to be smaller, four to eight pounds, and have really thick walls for their size.

While you could eat a grocery store carving pumpkin they really don't have that good of flavor.

Really loved hearing you guys play boardgames, especially some of the newer ones. There's been a huge boom of great games the last few years, Lords of Waterdeep and Love Letter being part of them. I always wondered how you guys would handle "Android: Netrunner" LCG, which is a deck building about hackers fighting corporations.

Although perhaps you are contractually bound to play only Magic? :shock:

I think Alex might have been talking about "Nightmare".

Flip the Table is a podcast about old cheesy and weird boardgames, and they did an episode about that game.
Took me a while to find it since it's pretty old, but here it is, episode #11.

Hope you enjoy!

10 hours a day, six days a week for 75 million? Well, it means I'll be working less, so, great?

That sounds like working the same job I am now, but at the workload some of my colleagues are already doing. But then, I'm selfish and lazy, so would probably quit pretty quickly.

The Canada Lays new flavors sounds much better than the ones we have in America currently. Frankly, haven't been a flavor that beat out Dill Pickle from the first run.

It took a month, but I finally found All Dressed Chips by Ruffles. Thank you Alex and Canada for telling me about these. The wife and I really enjoyed them! :)
