If you want more R&R, here's the place, because in addition to continuing our top100 games countdown, we "ruel ranked" 3 additional games, did a new top3, and had some time for Q&A at the end! :)  

Ruel and I continue our epic countdown of the best of all time... I get more euroey, and ruel surprises with some off games that are now on my bucket list! :)  

19 games talked about in today's roundup. Let me apologize right now for being 11 days late, and also for missing 2 games (which will get mentioned in next month's roundup!) To make up for the gaffs, Jen makes a special guest appearance this time! If you'd rather watch than listen, here's the youtube link: https://youtu.be/DPYpBNpZV4c

In addition to the t100 countdown continuing, today we do a couple of Ruel Ranks, a new top3, and tell stories of the Dice Tower West convention :)

It's time for the R&R show again, and this week, in addition to counting down new (and some old) games we'd BUY RIGHT NOW, we also do some ruel ranking, quite a bit of personal trivia (some funny, some tragic), and make time for Q&A at the end :)

Okay everybody, we're going to be taking a bit of time off from the top100 games of all time countdown to celebrate something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue in our monthly look at our own personal hotness lists :)

Okay, so for starters we're continuing the top100 countdown, with #90-81. Also we did a top 3 guilty pleasure movies, rated Riftforce, and dug deep on some Mr Rogers trivia, and there's time left over for Q&A at the end :)

The countdown continues, and we're giving away a copy of Fog of Love as well!

Not only did we start our top100 countdown in this episode, but if you check out the full length edition, we did a couple of ruel ranks, an r&r-gument, some "there can be only one" and had a spectacular mid-show breakdown! :)

Okay, time for the beginning of something big... for next several months, Ruel and I will be counting down our top100 of all time, starting today. Hopefully the audience enjoys as much as we enjoy talking about them! :)
