Episode Description from the Publisher

If you need cheering up, then Shrinking, an Apple TV series about coming to terms with loss and grief is, surprisingly, a very good choice. Meanwhile Star Trek: Captain's Chair - To Boldly Go is an expandalone deckbuilder from WizKids in which you explore the galaxy, with a friend or solo, in the name of the Federation. And finally, a deep dive into the world of official and knock off Transformers toys. All that, and the sound of running water, on Ep252. 00:00 - Greek mythology 05:47 - Shrinking and Apple TV 23:17 - Star Trek: Captain's Chair - To Boldly Go 49:01 - Some serious Transformers toys On this episode were Dan (@ThisDanFrost), Sam (@MrSamTurner), and super special guest Richard (@WereNotWizards).
