Please show your support of the show and include us in your nominations this year, it means the world to us!

We return with another fan favorite "What We Talk About" episode, this time diving deep into the world of combos. We seek to identify types of combos found and card, board, and, well, video games too. We talk about what makes combos fun and also why they suck and conclude with examples of some of our favorite implementations of combos in board games. Hop in the Interdecisional Spaceship because you won't want to miss this one!
