Belated Birthday Box Bonanza (Vaesen, Stay Frosty, Scream Amongst the Stars) (E305)
Episode 305
Sunday, 16 November, 2025
Having found myself on the wrong side of 55, I attempt to distract from this devastating realisation by responding to some Movie Monday feedback before indulging in a little retail therapy. First up is James Knight with a call about September’s movie Richard Donner’s Superman, then we have calls from Joe Richter of Hindsighless and MW Lewis of The Worlds of MW Lewis regarding the October choice Fred Dekker’s Monster Squad. I mention a Dungeon Craft review of Chris McDowall’s Mythic Bastionland that you can watch here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NsJ5px6_8ew This is followed by that strangest of phenomena, the audio unboxing. I take a peek inside Free League's new Vaesen Starter Set, Casey Garske’s Stay Frost Remastered, Loke Battle Mats’ Dungeon Designer’s Deck (as featured on Geek Gamers) and Diogo Nogueira’s Screams Amongst The Stars. Check out the Dungeon Designer’s Deck here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3FuEq0yen-Y This month’s Movie Monday is 1984’s animated pre-Ghibli classic Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind directed by Hayao Miyazaki. That episode will air on 24th, so please send your submissions by the 22th if you’d like to be included in the show.
