We are back from GenCon, and finally back to podcasting! Sorry for the few week hiatus...but GenCon really took a lot out of us! It's great to get back to the grind and back to creating content however. This weeks episode we are talking all about Disney Lorcana at GenCon, and we are joined in studio with a guest! We are joined by Teddy from the Glimmer Gang! The Glimmer Gang is a competitive Disney Lorcana podcast focused on the competitive side of Lorcana. Now that Lorcana is out, Teddy and the rest of the gang are really excited to dive deep into the competitive aspect of Disney Lorcana. Dan, Jim and Teddy go over the wonderfulness (is that even a word?!?), the craziness, and the fiasco that is Disney Lorcana at GenCon 2023. Sit back and enjoy this weeks episode!

After last week's episode, Jim and I (Dan) were playing a game called Unfair (it's awesome and you should check it out, link below). During the end of the course of the game, we started an interesting conversation, and it was one that I thought would make an great podcast topic. We got into talking about how we both have fun and find joy in different aspects of card games. That began the conversation, and this episode is the natural "conclusion" to it...or is it?

This week, Dan and Jim talk all things deck building games. Sort of continuing last weeks discussion of Villainous, we stay "on theme" and continue the card games discussion. Deck building games are right up our alley, as we love just about any card game. We tell you about our experiences with the genre as a whole, including some recent experiences, and tell you why we enjoy these types of games so much. Also, stick around for the end of the episode, where we have a special announcement! What could it be!

Last week on the podcast, Dan & Jim talked about how we as societies have migrated a lot of our activities to online and the internet, and specifically referenced playing tabletop games online. Many times, the unfortunate outgrowth of the internet, can be the very real experience of negativity, or "toxicity". This weeks episode is all about toxicity, and how it is manifested in gaming communities. We talk about the why, but most importantly, we try to discuss how we can help to be a part of the solution, rather than the problem. We hope you enjoy this weeks episode.

On todays episode, we talk about the very relevant topic of comparing and contrasting the experiences of playing tabletop games online and playing them in-person. 2020 was a heck of year...and not in a good way. What the year did do, however, was really shine a light on what things I think many of us take for granted, and for many people, meeting each other in person is one of them. Human beings need social interaction on a regular basis, and I think 2020 really showed a lot of people that. So that is really where the genesis of today's topic came from, but this conversation did not originate because of 2020. The tabletop industry in particular is no stranger to online meetings. We really get into this topic in today's episode.

Todays episode is all about Magic: The Gathering! Jim and I have talked quite a bit about Magic in previous episodes, but today we dedicate an entire episode around the game that we both enjoy so much. If you've never heard of Magic, or you're not the biggest fan of Magic, take heart! We hope there is still something for you on this episode of the Hobbies & Happiness podcast!

In this weeks episode, we talk about very important topic relevant to the tabletop hobby and industry, your Local Game Store (LGS). Local Game Stores are the life blood of your local tabletop community, or at least they should be. There is a lot that we could discuss on this topic that relates to local game stores and how they relate to their communities and customers, but we think this is a great place to start the conversation. We are leading this big topic off, with why you as a player should support your LGS. As always, if you have anything you would want to add to this conversation, don't hesitate to reach out to us below! We love hearing from our listeners!
