At last we are back! With both an episode for you guys and a schedule for us to be able to start to record more regularly. Much joy! In this episode it’s only us hosts and the plan was that every host came up with a topic he wanted to talk about. That means we have three different topics and three different views on every topic. But after the recording went on a bit too long we decided to split this episode in two parts, in this episode we talk about Seb’s topic, playtest cards, and in the next part we talk about mine and Eliot’s.

What we talk about and when:

Season 2 · Episode 17

Monday, November 5, 2018 • Duration 03:08:21

Episode 17 of Flippin’ Orbs is a monster of an episode, it’s over 3 hours long(!). The topic is also sort of a monster, because today we will talk about different rules sets and house rules. First we talk to the amazing Guillaume Denoix, one of the earliest French players and one of the fathers of the quite special French rules. Why did they decide to come up with their own rules and why do they look as they do? There is a lot of thought behind it all!

Then we also talk to the father of the format, Magnus “Mg” De Laval about the whole idea of house rules and his thoughts about it.

We also talk about playing hate cards in the main deck and much much more. Hope you enjoy!

What we talk about and when:

Episode 15.5 - Grant & the Lords

Thursday, August 9, 2018 • Duration

This is a special episode of Flippin’ Orbs recorded before Grant decided that he needed to take a break from the podcast. And isn't it fitting that this last episode is all Grant? He sat down in a pub with fellow Lords Matt and Carter and had a short talk and her it is completely unedited! That means the sound is a bit bad, but we hope you like it anyway.
