Welcome to episode 62 of The Last Standee Podcast!
The Last Standee: the only podcast brought to you by intergalactic sewage pipes. But let's get to this from the beginning. No, not the Standee Catch-up, although that is the beginning enough. Oh, WELCOME BACK CARA, by the way!
Anyway, very close to the beginning there's Fen talking about Hoplomachus: Victorum from Chip Theory Games. Then, we get to the (quite) larger picture with Alessio and Galaxy Trucker: 2nd Edition (go ahead, panic), where we introduce the aforementioned intergalactic sewage pipes. From there, we move with Cara to a galaxy far, far away where there's war - not only war, there are other things too. But in this case, it is war.
And before you ask: no, the second E doesn't stand for Ewoks. We don't talk about Ewoks.

62: Galaxy Gladiators (Hoplomachus: Victorum, Galaxy Trucker, Star Wars: Legion)

Why tuckboxes?
I'm afraid this will be a mystery, like the name of the designer of Love Letter. But don't fret, all shall be answered within the episode. When Alessio talks about Astro Knights and Audrey talks about Love Letter, respectively. Other than those, Fen does an exhaustive comparison of both campaigns in Aeon's End: Legacy and Aeon's End: Legacy of Gravehold and Cara brings us to the most-bought-by-Cara's-family boardgame of all times: Tokaido Duo. There's also a Standee Catch-up somewhere in there.

...this was an atypical episode description. Welcome to episode 63 of The Last Standee podcast!

Welcome to:
a) Episode 64 of The Last Standee Podcast
b) the World of Monsters!

Well, let's get this in order- there's the welcome, in the form of the Standee Catch-up with Fen, Alessio and Alexis - we talk about big boxes, big games and big box games. After that, there's "a" world, the world of Cry Havoc- a genius asymmetric area control game of "old". And then there are Monsters. And Monster Hunting. In a World. From Steamforged Games, courtesy of Capcom. And there's good in it. Don't miss this episode!

Welcome to episode 65 of The Last Standee Podcast!
You might feel that the Standee Catch-up has fallen a bit behind the Timefront, but no worries! 
In this episode, Cara talks about Flamecraft, finally giving us a dispassionate opinion whether the game is more cute or more fun (looking at you, Unstable Unicorns!), then Audrey introduces us the "co-opetitive" games we all love and will now know, Hellapagos. And since we already talked about flames and hell, well, it's time for Fen to introduce us to episode closure with the titular scorned woman, because we'll be talking about Final Girl!

65: All hell hath no fury (Flamecraft, Hellapagos, Final Girl)

Welcome to episode 66 of The Last Standee Podcast!
It's again that time of the year where we interview Marcin Welnicki from Into The Unknown Studio, this time to discuss their ongoing Kickstarter for Aeon Trespass: Odyssey reprint and Twelve Sins of Herakles standalone prequel!
Expect the usual Marcin's enthusiasm, a lot of small facts and trivia and behind-the-scenes design choices, and some not-yet-heard-about piece of content scattered around!

66: AT: Twelve Sins of Herakles Interview (Stable Building)

Welcome to this belated and much anticipated episode of The Last Standee Podcast - now with cutting "uhmmms" when we spot them in the sound curve!

In this episode we have a bit of everything: we begin with the Standee Catch-up with two very different heartwarming pieces of news: one about human empathy and the other about eternal kickstarter projects getting closer to fulfilment. After that, we have Alexis talk about Journeys in Middle-Earth, then Fen does their own catch-up with a lot of mini-reviews. It's the turn of the team sharing a crowdfunding update from around the hobby, then we go freeform discussion mode (THERE ARE OPINIONS!) about Golden Geek Awards 2022!

67: Golden Gooseeks (LotR: Journeys in ME, Fen's catch-up Reviews, Golden Geeks 2022)

Welcome to Episode 68 of The Last Standee Podcast! Despite the heat (without the pedal to the metal) wrapping up everything in the Northern Hemisphere, we are once again at our posts to provide you precious opinions about boardgames! After the catch-up, Alessio brings up the Tourney vibe with Challengers!, then Fen goes on with a critique of Lands of Galzyr - finally it's Cara's turn to talk about a famous RPG we won't even name directly to not draw the attention of the lawyers of the wizard who lives by the sea, let's say.

68: Challenging Dungeons (Challengers!, Lands of Galzyr, Dungeons & Dragons)

Welcome to steamy episode 69 of The Last Standee Podcast!
What's in store for the sexiest number of them all? But of course, a contest to find the least sexy game in our collections!
NO SPOILERS HERE, so you'll have to listen to the episode to find out what it's about (spoiler: all games discussed are actually good games!)
