They also chat with Tori and Garrett, two horror film critics, about all the tentacles that go bump in the night.

This one's fairly patriotic, folks. And I mean real pride in our nation, the story of overcoming our shortcomings to become a more tolerant people. Not that "America is #1" crud. We talk about Votes For Women, the newest historical game from Fort Circle Games, which deals with the passing of the 19th Amendment, which gave women the right to vote in the United States, way too long after our nation came into existence. And we also discuss this game, this history, other historical games and more with Liz Davidson, the host of Beyond Solitaire!
