  • JJ Meta is too blame

    If you’ve never played Twilight Imperium, you should start so that you have an excuse to listen to these guys. Or just learn the rules and mind palace it - either is valid.

  • Great TI4 content

    Love their TI4 content but would also like a DS9 episode or four. Heck a few other episodes for other sci-fi series would be bad either (suggesting after re-watching all of Stargate recently).
