Or should they be something we have to trawl through to get to the heart?  ***What’s up in Babblot*** 2:50 No shave November Losing it...weight that is Titan has landed and Kemet approaches Gardening in unnaturally warm weather Playing with the Pegs ***Sponsor break*** 11:11 Arcane Wonders library of new games including Freedom Five, Four Gardens and Foundation of Rome   ***Things that make the King go Hmmm!*** 16:04  Companies are doing well, all considered. ***Sponsor break*** 19:14 New site and new KS coming to Game Topper   ***The good, not so bad and ugly*** 26:22 First impressions of brand new games that w
