The MCG crew welcomes in 2022 celebrating the delivery of Three Sisters to backers. We discuss surprises and educational moments along the way through this first project, as well as discuss our next project Motor City which launches in March. Adam has some world record dramatic pauses (which is not the best radio, he admits), Ben continues to argue that mini-cheesecakes are a cookie (they are not), and Matt is still super bad at geography. Enjoy the laughs.

This blockbuster 90-minute podcast features the MCG team and our first special guest ever: Kevin Crowther. We open with some reflections on the tragedy in Oxford, which hit very close to home. Kevin discusses his game design classes he teaches at a local high school. Then we talk Three Sisters boats, and discuss a couple of games we like and one or two we didn't, as well as the point of vacations. We celebrate the holidays with an incredible "top 3" list of Christmas cookies. It might be our best top 3 ever. (For the record: Ben's top 3 cookies are not cookies.)

In this blockbuster episode the MCG gang makes up for lost time providing updates on all things Three Sisters and Motor City, as well as some reflections on the inaugural MotorCityCon and all the games that they played over that incredible weekend. There is a pretty decent discussion of some popular sitcoms and fantasy football toward the end. And don't think that we are done with air fryers!

On the business front, the MCG gang, and Matt in particular, discusses shipping rates and complications as Three Sisters gets close to getting loaded onto boats. We also discuss the changing landscape of small publishers in the wake of 2020. Then the crew discusses some games we have played lately, and why Flat Out Games has a near perfect record. In a surprise twist, Adam does not completely blow his top three opportunity.

Matt reveals his complete disregard for geography, Adam talks pizza toppings, and Ben calls out Chili's for making corn on the cob that tastes like it was cooked in your armpit. Worth a listen for sure.
