Kenny and Josh have a new episode with new segments: The Octothorpe Rewind and The Mailbag. In The Octothorpe Rewind, Josh recounts his Gloomhaven saga as it has transpired over the past month and a half. Given, that several portions were recorded at several different times, the entire story encompasses a three-part update.

Lastly, the guys go dumpster diving through their mailbox to find their first set of questions from Wes "Friend of the Show". Kenny and Josh tackle the two questions posed by Wes:

1) What games in the upper echelon of the BGG all time rankings are over rated or under rated in Kenny and Josh's opinions? 2) What games do Kenny and Josh have in their collections are ones that they purchased but took an exceedingly long time to get to the table? If so, how long did they sit before they played them?
