They Drive By Luxor, Reef, Endeavor, Century: Eastern Wonders, Coimbra and more! The dynamic duo then run-down how their 10x10 is going at the mid-point (hint: not good). In the All The Bits bit, Shaun talks about the incredible art of Dino Dunk (duh) and Michelle messes with your head as she talks about all the wood in Origin. Finally, Next Up gets literal again as Shaun gushes over Lords of Baseball and Gizmos, while Michelle losers her mind over Merlin and Great Western Trail: Rails to the North. All this, and so much more! Seriously, this episode is jam-packed with so much entertainment you are going to lose your bits!

Welcome to Episode 21 of All The Bits, wherein Shaun and Michelle move from casual to hardcore like a leprechaun dancing across a rainbow! They Drive By titles such as SdJ nominee Ganz Schon Clever, Joraku, Citrus, Cat Lady, Transatlantic and Terraforming Mars. This episode's BGG Thread Spotlight is an interesting one on "How Do You Pick Games to Play?". Shaun sends a curveball (yah baseball!) Michelle's way as he picks a RPG for the All The Bits bit. Shaun continues to "cheat" as he talks about Origins in the Next Up Bit, while Michelle predictibly goes the route of some dry Euros (Altiplano, Riverboat). In addition to all this, the Hot Topic bit makes its return as the recent Spiel des Jarias nominees are discussed in details. ALl This and the regular nonsense as Episode 21 of the All The Bits takes flight!
