Episode Five - Mansions of Madness
Welcome to Episode Five of the Board Boys Podcast! Things got a little spooky in this episode as the Board Boys fought cultists, mobs and a few bad cases of insanity in Mansions of Madness. Joined by Josh's lovely wife, Sammi, the group fought to their last breath frantically trying to escape Innsmouth alive. To help lighten the mood the boys discuss Sammi's experiences growing up with Disney board games and discuss Campbell's winning idea for a Twilight board game (Frank and Josh are totes team Jacob).
