Card Game

Kittenwar

April 25, 2011

Due to technical difficulties, we had to do a last minute switcheroo with this week’s game and play the ridiculous and ridiculously cute War-like card game, Kittenwar. Aside from all the feline chatter, we also talk about Brian’s recent trip to Oklahoma and Mike’s Pride weekend.

Uno

October 12, 2010

This week Mike & Brian play Uno, which is not so fun with dos but much better with tres. So we asked our friend Curtis to join us. As if that weren’t special enough, instead of playing ordinary Uno we play Disney Princess Uno to mix it up a bit. Time to get your ingenue heroine on.

War

August 31, 2010

War. What is it good for? Absolutely something… say it again y’all.

This week, Mike teaches Brian how to play a easy, fast-paced game with a standard deck of cards. It’s a good game for two people and simple enough that it’s great for kids. Simple enough for kids = simple enough for the Game Night Guys.

Sequence

August 24, 2010

We learn another valuable lesson about podcasting during our second episode: it’s much easier walking and chewing gum at the same time than it is talking and playing the board/card game, Sequence, where one-eyed Jacks are wild and the King of Hearts looks a wee bit Irish.
