This month we are doing something a bit different, a 'deep dive' on just one game, Ticket to Ride.  Rick is joined by guests Ollie and Elizabeth.  We talk about the expansions, what we like (what we don't like!), and then we finish with strategies and tips for playing.

Whether you are a super fan or have never played before, this episode is packed with information so we hope you will learn something new about this fantastic game!
