This week Lauren, Dana and Jules chat about a really important topic – how mental health and board gaming affect one another. We dive into some personal stories, as well as sharing our thoughts on the positives and negatives of mental health in the board game space. After that, we get into some sizzles! Has Jules been leading a band of vikings? Knarr yeah. Dana has been feeding her travel bug pouring over the beautiful components in Let’s Go! To Japan.
After that we’ve got the regularly scheduled Question of the Pod, and we make some new oaths.
