Made the „choice“ to listen to this episode while playing a game they talked about. Am I being unduly influenced? I think not. I think the podcast just solidified my misgivings about Paperback Adventures ([see here](https://discussion.tekeli.li/t/recent-boardgames-your-last-played-game-volume-2/399/6778))
