BGB Podcast #51 – The Best of Times

Wait, what do you mean we’re done with the top fifty?

We throw back to our very first episode, with our biggest surprises and disappointments of the year gone by. 2018 was a year of highs and lows, but sometimes you just don’t see them coming. The difference between expectation and the final product is what this week’s episode is all about. Before we gaze back wistfully, we talk about Akrotiri, Blue Moon City, and This Guilty Land.
