BGB Podcast #99 – Sore Today, Strong Tomorrow

I’ve got hurt feelings, I’ve got hurt feelings.

It’s getting close now, can you feel it? Or are you just feeling sore from the game you just lost? We’re talking sore losers and sore winners: people who are hard to be around when they lose or win a game. What can you do to avoid being that person, and what games bring out the worst in us? Before we fight our feelings, we talk about Paris: New Eden, Glory to Rome, and No Swap No Pay.

We’re still looking for feedback to close out 2019, if you’d like to answer a quick poll to help guide the next year of the podcast, please click here!
