In this latest long episode of the podcast, we cover a LOT of stuff! Our main game is Burgle Bros, a heist game similar in theme to the movie Oceans 11, but with the austerity of Austin Powers. In this game, players break into a museum and try to escape with loot. We also discuss the all important question, does every game need to support solitaire? The easy answer is well, off course, but we hash it out nonetheless. You can also get the latest (week old) scoop on the 1 Player Guild Challenge coin.

This episode is just full of exciting stuff. First off, we meet the new co-host, Julius. Then, Julius does an interview with Matt Leacock. Mr Leacock has published a number of co-op games that are very solo friendly and now has a kickstarter going on for Thunderbirds, a co-op game based on the classic animated show. We cover two games this time, Forbidden Island and Forbidden Desert! That's something that has only happened once before in this podcast when I covered Lord of the Rings. Finally, Julius introduces a new segment and I have a giveaway!
