S4 E1 - Doug Bass and Flicking Finches
Welcome back! My apologies it's been so long since I posted an episode. In the last few months, I've started a new job in a completely new field and am adjusting to a new schedule. Thankfully, I think this change will let me start to make content more regularly. Thank you for sticking it out with me! I had the pleasure to interview Doug Bass from Meridae Games about a new game he's working on. Flicking Finches is live on Kickstarter and has less than a week left to fund. This dexterity and strategy game has a lot to offer, including some delightful artwork. Check out the episode to hear Doug and I discuss the evolution of board games over the last decade and the process of developing a board game. We had a great time chatting! Let me know what you think! Chat me up on Twitter @doclizz! Until next time, game on! Regina --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/gameongirl/message

S3 E9 - Watching Lord of the Rings as a Mom
Greetings Gentle Listeners! This week Regina takes us back to the world of Lord of the Rings. She talks about what it's like to watch the trilogy now that she's a mom. Yes... it's been that long since she watched these movies. She touches briefly on how the movies have aged but really takes a deep dive into her own emotional response to one character in particular. Have you ever had a similar experience? Have you watched a familiar story and had a completely different emotional reaction to one of the characters? Let Regina know on Twitter @DocLizz! Until next time, game on! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/gameongirl/message

S3E3 - Super Bowl Half Time Shows and Sexuality
Did you watch the Super Bowl? Were you surprised by the half time show? In this episode, I talk about how my attention was drawn to the half time show. Reactions from friends and articles appearing in my news feed made it impossible for me not to watch it. As I am not a sports fan, it's not the kind of performance that usually draws my attention. But I'm glad I took the time to watch. Did you watch the show? Was it just on in the background? What were your thoughts about the performance? Let me know @doclizz! Oh and who won the game? I don't think it was the 49ers or else I would have heard my cousins shouting about it from several states over. :) Until next time, game on!
