#281 - Tom’s Game Gauntlet II: The Return of ‘Game Gauntlet’
It’s just little old Tom this week on the Shut Up & Sit Down Podcast, and he’s taking you through a bunch of odds and ends that might otherwise slip through the metaphorical cracks of the metaphorical floorboards. They wouldn’t fit through the real floorboards. That’d be silly. And we don’t do silly, here.Let us know what you think of these episodes! They’re a little unusual, but quite fun to make in a pinch!Timestamps: 02:21 - Joraku07:33 - Calimala12:35 - Tofu Shifu16:52 - March of the Ants23:34 - Beaver House26:24 - Naishi

#280 - The Firefighters of the Rainforest
Three kinds of wood, all alike in dignity. Except one of them is on fire, and one of them has a lot of toothy rodents in it. I’m really straining to find some way of making a kind of beaver ratatouille joke, but it’s not coming naturally. ‘Beavertouille, he only does Dams this time?’. I don’t know. Get out of my restaurant.Timestamps:01:52 - Hutan: Life in the Rainforest12:50 - Flash Point: Legacy of Flame32:27 - Timber Town

We’ve got a starter and dessert made of space - with Galileo Galilei and Moon Colony Bloodbath protecting a gooey fantasy center all made of Lord of the Rings: Fate of the Fellowship!Have a great weekend, everybody!Timestamps: 03:18 - Galileo Galilei18:16 - Lord of the Rings: Fate of the Fellowship31:18 - Moon Colony Bloodbath
