Hey hey BATT Family! The first major episode of Season Two is here! This was by far the biggest episode and most complex edit I've had to do yet. We have a great conversation with Curt Covert from Smirk and Dagger games for this episode and we break down the way they've seen the hobby change in the 22 years of their existence. Jason also has his first deployment of a game at Mark and Scott for Why Did I Play That and for the first time we have a guest join us for Table Shelf and Trade! It's a super fun episode and we had a lot of it end up going to an Odds and Ends in the future like the way we did with James Hudson because otherwise this thing would have been almost three hours long. Hope you enjoy this and we can't wait to hear what you think about it! Thanks for joining us for season two and getting to hear about all of our new sponsors as well! --- This episode's segments: 00:00:00 - Intro 00:02:25 - What's Been on the Table 00:07:01 - Topic of the Week: Smirk and Dagger Games 00:26:47 - Grand Gamers Guild Sponsor 00:28:05 - Why Did I Play That: Cowboy Bebop: Space Serenade 00:50:02 - Table / Shelf / Trade 01:13:06 - Rotating Segment: Where'd It Go?! 01:13:37 - Smirk and Dagger Upcoming Releases 01:20:04 - Contact Info 01:20:51 - Secret Door Sponsor 01:21:39 - Meeple Source Sponsor 01:22:51 - Outro --- Notes! 1) Smirk and Dagger Games Website: https://www.smirkanddagger.com 2) Since the time of recording, Curt did provide the podcast with A Place for All My Books, Enthrone, Boom Patrol, Outfox the Fox, and Nevermore.
