Moritz says goodbye to Dave Arneson, Giles talks about Australian game expos, and Mark discusses war game expansions. We discuss Tom's top ten games from 1994 - and end the show with an interview with Kimberly Maita about board game cruises."

I thought Sam first came in around #40 or so. I don't think he was there for episode after that. I'm pretty sure he wasn't there for 50 or 51.

I've obviously been enjoying all the new episodes. Any idea when some of the classics are going to be re-released? It will be fun to hear some of the "early Sam" phrases compared to now.
