BGB Podcast #33 – You Can’t Win ‘Em All

You can’t always win when you want, but if you lose sometimes, you might find, your win rate recedes.

Look, sometimes we lose games. I know. It’s weird. It’s hard to talk about, to be frank, but it’s important to realize that your heroes can have flaws. So, this week, we’re counting down our top five games we’re bad at! Before we admit defeat, we also discuss Yogi, Orléans, and Blue Lagoon.
