In Episode 141 we provide our hot take review of Scythe covering the mechanisms, the production, and our overall feelings of the game.

We also discuss a poll about whether past experience with a designer may keep you away from a game by that designer. Twitter Poll Results: I don't pay attention - 21% Yes - 40% No - 29%

Then we discuss some board games on our table and future takes including Steam Up: A Feast of Dim Sum, Frosthaven, and They Live: Assault on Cable 54.
