Stuff We Love and Great games that Deserve a Refresh
What do Sees Candies, disc golf, and a deluxe version of Lords of Waterdeep have in common? They’re all part of this feel-good episode packed with personal favorites, nostalgic treats, and board games we wish would come back.
In episode 18 of Positively Board Gaming, Mitchell Whitfield and Jamey Stegmaier take a fun detour from typical game reviews and dive into a lightning round of their favorite things—from chocolate and pizza to current TV obsessions and tabletop accessories. Mitchell opens up with a sweet ode to Sees Candies’ chocolate-covered marshmallows, while Jamey shares his latest love: a local Earl Grey peach coffee.
From there, they riff on nostalgic TV, comfort food, and even a massive fidget-spinner-style DND dice. The episode also features an honest discussion about which games deserve a reprint or visual refresh—Battlestar Galactica, Lords of Waterdeep, and Comic Hunters top the list.
They wrap things up with Mitchell’s early impressions of Arydia, and tease an upcoming live episode for #21 that will let fans join the conversation in real time.
