Description

Cribbed my cold intro from a few lines of this Bukowski poem if you feel like reading the whole thing.

Drink of the Week (2:19 )
It’s hot, so I keep it simple with a cooler of Michelob Ultra in the living room and try to reason out why I went all in on this podcast.

Game of the Week (10:36 )
Finally got my hands on the trickery of Sykes-Picot: The Secret Treaty to Partition the Ottoman Empire from Hollandspiele Games, designed by Brooks Barber. Also: Second looks at Squad Leader, Star Wars: Outer Rim and a new installment of my work with the Dwelling solo journaling RPG.

Track of the Week (35:26 )
”Iron God Chamber,” Masta Killa feat. U-God, RZA, Method Man

Help Me Out, Get Fun Stuff to Read (25:59 )
I’ve still got cocktail booklets and Defiant Frog stickers as thank-you gifts for people who support the show with a one-time pitch-in. Tack on some postage and that swag bag can also include a pick from my 1980s comic book box.
