Social distancing is an odd time for tabletop games. On the one hand, these are by nature social, in-person activities, the players sitting around the table pushing cardboard and dice. On the other, a great many of us suddenly have a lot of time on our hands to play them. So we're making do, with Zoom and Tabletop Simulator, but it's not the same.
On today's episode, I talk with my friend PJ Hambrick, who I met through our shared love for tabletop games, about why these things are so great.
