00:00:02,080 --> 00:00:06,360
Speaker 1: Hey, that folks. It is Friday, December nineteenth, six days

2
00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:10,119
Speaker 1: to Christmas, but legit, you probably only got five days

3
00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:13,520
Speaker 1: to really get it together. And boy, do we have

4
00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:17,959
Speaker 1: a gift today for you that will work and that

5
00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:21,560
Speaker 1: will get there on time. With that, Welcome to this

6
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:27,320
Speaker 1: episode of Amy and TJ. This is one I think

7
00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:29,800
Speaker 1: I enjoy it more when it's not in use.

8
00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:33,760
Speaker 2: Does that make sense, yes, because it looks nice, gorgeous

9
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:37,000
Speaker 2: where you can actually display this gift, which is, by

10
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 2: the way, our final gift. We had three straight weeks

11
00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:42,800
Speaker 2: Monday through Friday where we have so you can go

12
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:43,960
Speaker 2: back and look if you want to look at the

13
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:46,760
Speaker 2: other gift ideas we had. I can't guarantee those are

14
00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:48,840
Speaker 2: all going to be available by Christmas Day, but it's

15
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:49,680
Speaker 2: worth a shot.

16
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:51,320
Speaker 3: But we know this one is.

17
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:53,840
Speaker 1: And it is really well reviewed. What we have for

18
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:59,440
Speaker 1: you today, folks, it is board games, classic board games

19
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:03,600
Speaker 1: with a twist. It is called the Vintage Bookshelf Board

20
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 1: Game Collection and the simplest way to put it. From

21
00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:10,920
Speaker 1: this company, It's a company called WS Game Company, and

22

Speaker 1: they design upscale, collectible editions of the world's most iconic games,

23
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:20,399
Speaker 1: capturing their heritage while transforming them into decor pieces meant

24
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:24,120
Speaker 1: to be displayed and enjoyed for generations. That is the

25
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:26,040
Speaker 1: official way to put it. But when you look at it,

26
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,959
Speaker 1: roll if they look like leather bound legal books that

27
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,559
Speaker 1: would go on any diction excuse me, any shelf, book shelf,

28
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:33,640
Speaker 1: and anywhere.

29
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:34,680
Speaker 3: They're really well done.

30
00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 2: They're nice, large and thick, so it looks like you've

31
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:41,679
Speaker 2: got these beautiful bound books meant for a beautiful library,

32
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:45,839
Speaker 2: which we just so happened to luckily have. Our podcasting

33
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:49,000
Speaker 2: room is actually a library transformed into a podcast room,

34
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:51,320
Speaker 2: so we have them sitting on one of our shelves

35
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 2: and they look like they're beautifully designed and nice pops

36
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 2: of color. You know, it's always nice on a bookshelf

37
00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 2: to have a pop of color.

38
00:01:58,280 --> 00:01:59,480
Speaker 3: And please provide that.

39
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:03,520
Speaker 1: The prettiest thing we have on our shelf right now. Seriously,

40
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 1: and folks, you will be seeing these in the background

41
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:08,200
Speaker 1: of our shot you stand by. There's going to be

42
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:11,240
Speaker 1: some video components coming with this podcast soon, but this

43
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:13,960
Speaker 1: will be on the shelf for sure because it looks good.

44
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,919
Speaker 1: The Vintage Bookshelf Board Game Collection they call a beautifully

45
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:19,280
Speaker 1: designed trio of classic board games. The one we have

46
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:23,679
Speaker 1: at least Battleship, Checkers, and Backgammon, and then Trivial Pursuit.

47
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 1: Each house in an elegant, fabric wrapped book box that

48
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 1: looks just as good on your shelf as it does

49
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 1: on game night. Which of those I knew family members

50
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 1: and whatnot that had Backgammon, but I never really played it.

51
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:39,120
Speaker 1: But what about you on these games? Did you play them?

52
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:43,080
Speaker 2: So? I never played Backgammon, but Battleship with my brother

53
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:46,960
Speaker 2: one hundred percent, Checkers all the time, and Trivial Pursuit.

54
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 2: We were obsessed with that as a family. I would

55
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:52,800
Speaker 2: go over to my grandmother's house actually with cousins, aunts, uncles,

56
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,640
Speaker 2: and we would go crazy for Trivial Pursuit.

57
00:02:55,800 --> 00:03:00,440
Speaker 1: And they call these a combination of nostalgia and modern

58
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,800
Speaker 1: craftsmanship and they are really cool. Look and now the

59
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,679
Speaker 1: one we have is a three game set that included

60
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:10,120
Speaker 1: Battleship and then Checkers and Backgammon were together in one

61
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:16,680
Speaker 1: and then Trivial Pursuit was in another. They also do ropes, Scrabble, Monopoly, Clue, Yah,

62
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:21,800
Speaker 1: see go for candy, lamp jinga, Guess who trouble.

63
00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, those were all the games of my childhood.

64
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,560
Speaker 1: So you can get all these games, folks, and everybody

65
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,680
Speaker 1: has a game, it's usually a closet. And then the

66
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 1: top of that closet you throw your board games right

67
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:34,040
Speaker 1: and it.

68
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 2: Gets all messy and the tops of the board game

69
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 2: get all destroyed for whatever reason, they get crushed and

70
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:41,720
Speaker 2: from all the use of.

71
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:42,400
Speaker 3: Pulling them out.

72
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:46,280
Speaker 2: So this is a very cool way to house and

73
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 2: display your games. Of those games, I think Monopoly probably

74
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:51,840
Speaker 2: was the most iconic in my house. My brother and

75
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:54,920
Speaker 2: I would have weeks long games. But Scrabble, I mean

76
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 2: clue trouble when you'd pop that little pop pop remember can.

77
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 3: I loved that.

78
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 1: I like Candyland Connect four. Monopoly took too much time.

79
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 3: I'm playing weeks long games.

80
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:10,840
Speaker 2: And there was a famous There was a famous episode

81
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 2: where I had to get my mom involved because Eric

82
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,760
Speaker 2: almost always won, and in this rare occasion, I was

83
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,120
Speaker 2: clearly creaming him. There was no way he was going

84
00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:19,760
Speaker 2: to be able to catch up. And so he looked

85
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:23,040
Speaker 2: at me. When he had that realization, flipped the board.

86
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:26,839
Speaker 2: The board flipped it and I burst into tears, and

87
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 2: so I had to have my mom come down and

88
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:30,839
Speaker 2: declare he goes you didn't win because the game wasn't finished.

89
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:32,680
Speaker 2: That's what he was saying to me. My mom had

90
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:34,760
Speaker 2: to come downstairs and say Amy officially won.

91
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:37,719
Speaker 3: That was the only way I cal him down.

92
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:40,080
Speaker 1: It's like peeling an onion with his family of yours.

93
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,640
Speaker 1: All that reads for Eric, for you, for mom. It

94
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:45,120
Speaker 1: all makes perfect sense.

95
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:47,440
Speaker 2: A true story, and it's so funny you think about

96
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 2: your childhood, what you remember.

97
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:53,520
Speaker 3: That is such a specific traumatic memory for me. But

98
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:54,600
Speaker 3: I still love Monopoly.

99
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,480
Speaker 1: Oh there it is again, folks, whatever you like. If

100
00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:02,039
Speaker 1: you want to seriously to stock your your game collection,

101
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 1: your board game collection, this is the first place I

102
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,120
Speaker 1: would send you. I love it now, don't get me wrong.

103
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 1: There are I will speak at least on the checkers

104
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 1: and backgammon. The board at least is folds into four pieces.

105
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 1: You have to unfold it, so that could be a

106
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 1: little annoyed. Don't know how long it will last. It

107
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:23,000
Speaker 1: seemed like after so much use that might But other

108
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:26,520
Speaker 1: than that that you should absolutely you know. How often

109
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:27,839
Speaker 1: do you play a board game anyway?

110
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:28,720
Speaker 3: Hardly?

111
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,240
Speaker 2: Ever, Now I think the truth is Sadly, I do

112
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:33,240
Speaker 2: think this is sad because we have phones. In fact,

113
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:36,040
Speaker 2: analys was coming back from a group party she was

114
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,000
Speaker 2: at the other night. She's like, I have the best

115
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:41,040
Speaker 2: game for us to play when we're all together at Christmas.

116
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:44,680
Speaker 2: But it involves being on your phone. She even said that, Yeah,

117
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,360
Speaker 2: first question, is it on your phone? I phone for

118
00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 2: this because they want to do it all the time.

119
00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:51,799
Speaker 2: What's the one they always have to connect?

120
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:54,680
Speaker 3: Yes, I forgot what it's called. But everyone likes it.

121
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 2: So now that's obviously what kids these days do.

122
00:05:58,080 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 3: But it is fun to pull out a board game.

123
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:02,719
Speaker 1: But so to that point, we don't do it often.

124
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:05,720
Speaker 1: No body. We pokest on your play board game once

125
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:08,279
Speaker 1: a week. So that means they need to be stored somewhere.

126
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 1: And if you have them in such a package, that

127
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:14,440
Speaker 1: can be stored anywhere. And it's beautiful, and I promise

128
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:17,000
Speaker 1: you if you leave this out, there will be more

129
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:18,040
Speaker 1: board game playing.

130
00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 2: That's a really good point, because you forget what you

131
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:23,480
Speaker 2: have in the closet on the top shelf. I actually

132
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:26,080
Speaker 2: we bought a bunch of board games a year or

133
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:27,599
Speaker 2: two ago. We were going to bring them with us

134
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:29,800
Speaker 2: when we went on like an airbnb house. We forgot

135
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 2: them because they were out of sight, out of mind.

136
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,040
Speaker 2: And so you don't think about playing them. You just think, Okay,

137
00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:38,880
Speaker 2: what's on Netflix tonight or some you don't consider doing

138
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 2: that because you don't see them this way. They're they're

139
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 2: fresh in your mind because they're in your face.

140
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:44,160
Speaker 3: They're displayed.

141
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 1: And I have and I'm going to show this to

142
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:47,480
Speaker 1: you Rod and let you react to it as we're

143
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 1: sitting here. But the ones we have, we have red,

144
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:53,360
Speaker 1: purple and is that gray? Are the colors of our ya,

145
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:56,080
Speaker 1: red purple us. But they all those other games and

146
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 1: look at how it comes up.

147
00:06:56,960 --> 00:07:01,240
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, god, so pretty. So they have a

148
00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:04,039
Speaker 2: whole set and it literally is a rainbow. It goes

149
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:08,360
Speaker 2: from red to pink, to peach to yellow to like gorgeous.

150
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:11,480
Speaker 3: Shades of blue and green. Yeah, this is so pretty

151
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:13,640
Speaker 3: when you buy them all together like that. Wow, how

152
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 3: much does that cost?

153
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're going to get into that. And you know what,

154
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:18,480
Speaker 1: I will tell you. I'm not to a point where

155
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 1: I think it's too much yet. But the games, let

156
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 1: me get back here. The reviews. I had a hard

157
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 1: time finding reviews initially, but I was able to track

158
00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:30,000
Speaker 1: them down ropes and the reviews, I will have you know,

159
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:33,120
Speaker 1: there was not they're not many, but of the reviews,

160
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:36,000
Speaker 1: there was not a single one that's a one star

161
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:38,920
Speaker 1: or a two star. Only forty six that were on

162
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:42,800
Speaker 1: the Amazon websites, so not a lot. But they all

163
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:45,480
Speaker 1: say the exact same thing about this game. They all

164
00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:47,600
Speaker 1: love it. Everybody loves them.

165
00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:49,640
Speaker 3: No regrets from purchasers.

166
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 1: Eighty nine percent were five stars.

167
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:54,520
Speaker 2: Wow, that's that's huge. That might be the highest five

168
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 2: star percentage in any of our gifts.

169
00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,560
Speaker 1: Seeing it's a small sample, the only about fifty people

170
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:01,880
Speaker 1: that chimed in. I'm not gonna go and read the review.

171
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 1: Just their titles, great quality and conversation piece. I need

172
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:11,120
Speaker 1: them all. Wow, love these our favorites. Beautiful to look at,

173
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:15,200
Speaker 1: worth it just yes, great, you get the idea.

174
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:16,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, And we talked about this earlier.

175
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:19,080
Speaker 2: I have always been of the belief you have to

176
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,920
Speaker 2: be really passionate and moved in one way or the

177
00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,400
Speaker 2: other to take the time to write a review. And

178
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:27,400
Speaker 2: usually people get moved when they're angry or there's a problem,

179
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:29,120
Speaker 2: when there's something they don't like and they want to

180
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,320
Speaker 2: warn other people from buy it. So to have that

181
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:34,000
Speaker 2: high of a percentage of people who felt compelled to

182
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 2: go on too Amazon and write a positive review.

183
00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 3: I think speaks volumes.

184
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:40,560
Speaker 1: And I will mention we're gonna get into the price

185
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 1: here in a second, but you can get an individual one,

186
00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:45,920
Speaker 1: just one game. They do them in sets of three,

187
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:51,199
Speaker 1: and you can buy the entire twenty two game set

188
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:53,960
Speaker 1: if you want, if you have a bookshelf in places

189
00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:57,640
Speaker 1: to put it, So stay here. We'll get into how

190
00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:01,600
Speaker 1: much this thing cost, when you can get it, and

191
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:05,400
Speaker 1: where you can get it. Stay here.

192
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:16,680
Speaker 2: Welcome back everyone, as we wrap up. See what I

193
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 2: did there, We wrap up our holiday gift guide. I

194
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:22,120
Speaker 2: just did that for you because I know how much

195
00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:25,800
Speaker 2: you love my puns. We are a gift number fifteen,

196
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:27,960
Speaker 2: and we might have saved the best for last at

197
00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,480
Speaker 2: this point, especially when it comes to the reviews and

198
00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:33,480
Speaker 2: how we feel about these gifts because we are using

199
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:35,600
Speaker 2: them even though we're not playing the games. We haven't

200
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 2: played a game yet, but we have been looking at

201
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:43,040
Speaker 2: these gorgeous bookshelf vintage board games. They have packaged them

202
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:46,240
Speaker 2: so well, and it invites you to play in a

203
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:48,559
Speaker 2: way that it just doesn't when you have them stored

204
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:51,079
Speaker 2: messily on the top of your closet or a drawer.

205
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:53,400
Speaker 1: Do we store it in the case like this, so

206
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 1: it looks like as an individual, it looks like a thick,

207
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,679
Speaker 1: almost legal book. It's gorgeous, but it comes in this

208
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:01,439
Speaker 1: what do you call this, it's tasting a box a

209
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:03,000
Speaker 1: little Yeah, it's a book.

210
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:03,880
Speaker 3: Box, a bookcasing.

211
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:06,240
Speaker 1: Maybe a bookcasing, yeah, that you can slide it into.

212
00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:07,559
Speaker 1: How do you store it? Do you do it this way?

213
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:09,080
Speaker 3: Or do you do you could? Or turn it around?

214
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:10,040
Speaker 3: Let me see what that like.

215
00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:12,440
Speaker 2: Even doing it like that, even you have options. You

216
00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:14,640
Speaker 2: can you can actually turn it around in the box

217
00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:16,520
Speaker 2: and it still looks gorgeous, or you can take it

218
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:18,440
Speaker 2: out of the box altogether and just have it stored

219
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 2: like a regular library book.

220
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,839
Speaker 1: I would almost recommend this with schools, like this is

221
00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:25,040
Speaker 1: a way to storm in classrooms that you can still

222
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:26,400
Speaker 1: pull them out and you can put them all in

223
00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:29,520
Speaker 1: one comepack thing and maybe pieces aren't going towhere. I

224
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:33,000
Speaker 1: absolutely do love this gift. I wasn't sure what exactly

225
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,120
Speaker 1: it was when we first got it, but once we

226
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,800
Speaker 1: research and looked into it, now it's the one we have.

227
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:42,280
Speaker 1: The set of three costs a pretty pitty I guess right, one.

228
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:44,199
Speaker 3: Hundred and forty bucks it's not cheap.

229
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:47,040
Speaker 1: It's not cheap. I would absolutely say it's worth it.

230
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:50,000
Speaker 1: You can do it individually, and they're forty seven bucks,

231
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,200
Speaker 1: so you get a little bit of a discount if

232
00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:54,520
Speaker 1: you do it that way. The whole set of twenty

233
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:56,640
Speaker 1: two is like six hundred and fifty bucks. Is that

234
00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:57,079
Speaker 1: what you were just saying?

235
00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:58,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, six hundred and fifty bucks.

236
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 1: If you wanted to get them all again, that sounds

237
00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,080
Speaker 1: like that. One is a collection of fifteen excuse me,

238
00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:07,439
Speaker 1: you would get fifteen books for six hundred and fifty bucks.

239
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:11,320
Speaker 1: So give's your idea. But I don't think it's out

240
00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 1: of reach. Yes, if you want to go buy Candyland

241
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:16,560
Speaker 1: or Connect four, it'll cost you fifteen dollars. Maybe if

242
00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:19,080
Speaker 1: you go to Target whatever that is. Yes, this is

243
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:24,080
Speaker 1: more expensive. This is a better version given how we

244
00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:25,000
Speaker 1: use board games.

245
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:28,640
Speaker 2: I agree, And you know, like I appreciate what one

246
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:30,880
Speaker 2: of the reviewers said that it was a conversation piece.

247
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:32,640
Speaker 2: So people come into your home where they see your

248
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 2: shelves and they say what are these and you start

249
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:38,080
Speaker 2: talking about something fun. You're not talking about politics or gossip.

250
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:41,199
Speaker 2: You're actually having a fun, nostalgic conversation. About the childhood

251
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:43,560
Speaker 2: games that brought you joy that can continue to do

252
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:44,280
Speaker 2: so in adulthood.

253
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:44,880
Speaker 3: And I did the math.

254
00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:46,400
Speaker 2: By the way, if you get the set of fifteen,

255
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:49,520
Speaker 2: that makes the books forty three dollars a piece, so

256
00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:51,400
Speaker 2: you do get a little bit of a savings buying

257
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 2: it in bulk Bsickly.

258
00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:57,280
Speaker 1: When you see them, there is no way you think

259
00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:01,480
Speaker 1: it's a board game. This is done well. Rats whoever

260
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 1: this is. WS is the name of the company, but

261
00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:07,640
Speaker 1: it is done so well. You can get these on

262
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:13,040
Speaker 1: Amazon also. The company WS is what it's called WS

263
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:16,880
Speaker 1: Game Company, WS Game Company. They do have a website.

264
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:19,559
Speaker 1: You can get it through Amazon as well. I checked ropes.

265
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:22,280
Speaker 1: We could get this delivered to us through Amazon today.

266
00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:25,319
Speaker 1: That's remarkable that was availability. Certainly could get it tomorrow.

267
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:27,440
Speaker 1: But I put in my parents address as well, and

268
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:28,840
Speaker 1: sure not, they could get it to them in the

269
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:30,480
Speaker 1: next couple of days. So it sounds like no matter

270
00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:32,520
Speaker 1: where you are, you can still get this by Christmas.

271
00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:33,120
Speaker 3: That's amazing.

272
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:35,559
Speaker 2: And I think especially for people who are at a

273
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,920
Speaker 2: certain age like our generation, these are the board games

274
00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:41,679
Speaker 2: of our childhood. So it would speak a lot to

275
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,480
Speaker 2: folks who are of a certain age, because we just

276
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:47,480
Speaker 2: I don't know how excited our kids would be about

277
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:52,640
Speaker 2: getting a trivial pursuit. But in that packaging, I think, yes, well,

278
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:56,400
Speaker 2: adult children now who have apartments to decorate, they might

279
00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:59,400
Speaker 2: really appreciate this. But I would, genuinely, Babe, I would

280
00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 2: like to play revial Pursuit this weekend with the kids.

281
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:04,160
Speaker 3: I think it would be so much fun.

282
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:06,120
Speaker 2: We haven't sat down, and actually, I know you're not

283
00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:08,160
Speaker 2: a huge board game person, but.

284
00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:10,800
Speaker 3: Maybe you would participate.

285
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:14,000
Speaker 1: No, Look, it's it's the college football playoff this week,

286
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:19,640
Speaker 1: and I think you're asking a lot of your mate folks.

287
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:23,640
Speaker 1: Clearly we're excited about this one. We appreciate and hope.

288
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:25,559
Speaker 1: I think maybe some people bought some of these things

289
00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:28,040
Speaker 1: to that's true.

290
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:33,199
Speaker 2: Yes, there were some cautionary gifts or just with an

291
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:36,120
Speaker 2: asterisk maybe next to it, but they were all great

292
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:39,160
Speaker 2: gifts thanks to our iHeart producers who picked these all

293
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:41,880
Speaker 2: out for us to try out and give to you.

294
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:44,600
Speaker 2: We've told you throughout the all the episodes we didn't

295
00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:47,680
Speaker 2: get paid by any of these companies. We were lucky

296
00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:49,839
Speaker 2: enough to receive these gifts so we actually get to

297
00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:52,240
Speaker 2: keep them and use them so that is part of

298
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:55,320
Speaker 2: the tradeoff I guess of reviewing this, But we gave

299
00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:57,640
Speaker 2: our honest opinions about what we thought about these gifts,

300
00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:00,319
Speaker 2: from how they look, how they feel, how they're used,

301
00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:03,280
Speaker 2: to the price point themselves, but also just the reviews

302
00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:04,160
Speaker 2: I think are so helpful.

303
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,600
Speaker 1: I think we were. I think we almost endorsed every

304
00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:08,840
Speaker 1: single item to a certain degree. We gave some caution

305
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:10,960
Speaker 1: every tales and something you had actually used, and gave

306
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:13,040
Speaker 1: your warnings and your experience. And that's fine, and it's

307
00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:15,319
Speaker 1: okay for everybody. But fifteen gifts, what was your favorite?

308
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:15,840
Speaker 1: Do you remember?

309
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:20,320
Speaker 2: I think of the ones we received, I think the

310
00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:25,240
Speaker 2: Marshall speaker might be the best gift of them all.

311
00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:26,720
Speaker 3: It's going to get used every day.

312
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:29,640
Speaker 1: How many have we bought for the kids?

313
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:30,640
Speaker 3: Well, we bought.

314
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:33,520
