On this absolutely soaked episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down Podcast, Tom and Matt are getting drenched in two positively sopping releases.First up, our intrepid explorers plunge into the depths of Thesauros! It’s got scubas, it’s got sharks, it’s got sunken treasures! All wrapped up in a slate-grey layer of project management and fund allocation.

And following the adventurous land of ‘The Ocean(s)’, our lads point at a few seagulls, bins, and plant pots in the cosy Welsh town and game: Tenby! Who will have the most porches?! Who will find the most relevant landmarks? It’s all to play for in the quaintest Tenby-builder on the market today.

Have a great week, everybody!

On this slippy ol’ episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down Podcast, Tom and Matt are chatting about Emberleaf; a game of woodland creatures amassing honey and battering bandits! “Like Pooh gone all vigilante on them asses”.

Our dynamic duo then seek to area control eachother in a WORTH WRESTLE! Whose critical opinion on this luminous box will come out on top? Neither, really. They’re both pretty chill about the whole thing. Everyone’s allowed opinions - even YOU!

Have a great week, everybody!

On this post-apocalyptic episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down podcast, we’ve got the last remaining swigs of game in this here canteen - don’t gulp it all to yourself, now! Share nicely…

First up is Phoenix New Horizon, a game of building post-apocalyptic power networks and trying to get a promotion. That’s followed by a slightly spoilery chat about Regicide Legacy - a game that asks the bold question; “What If Regicide, But Legacy?”. The pod’s rounded off with a quick chat about Zenith’s standard two-player mode, and spicy four player variant! Just like… never mind.

Have a great week, everybody!

On this gloopy episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down Podcast, Tom and Matt are donning their Memory Marigolds and getting elbow-deep in the past; recalling titles played all the way back in November 2025 (imagine!).

Expect rambling thoughts about a whole cluster of games played at PAXU 2025, and a few other sneaky additions to the lineup last-minute.

Have a great week, everybody!

On this ticked-off episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down Podcast, Tom and Matt are rambling about the box-ticking bonanza ‘Tend’ as well as the chronologically questionable ‘Take Time’!

Have a great weekend, everybody!

Website Copy: On this free-flowing episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down Podcast, Tom and Matt are chatting about competitive marble-pilfering simulator 12 Rivers, as well as a double-bill of absurd racing games in Hot Streak and Magical Athlete!

You may be expecting that this podcast thumbnail would show the promised board of 12 Rivers (which you can find here) and instead shows a picture of Hurley - the not-a-hotdog from Hot Streak. This is intentional, and important.

Have a great weekend, everybody!

On this subsequent episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down Podcast, Matt and Tom are returning to a couple of the games they were excited about in the Essen Special, as well as covering one that was missed from the billing!

Excuse the occasional odd buzzing on this one - we tried to scrub it as much as possible but there's only so much you can do to heal a dodgy microphone before you start making Matt sound like a blender.

Have a great weekend, everybody!

On this FULL CAPS CHUNKY episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down Podcast, Tom and Matt are talking about all of the games they played at Essen 2025!

This is an audio-only reupload of the video we just put out on the main channel - so if you’d like to enjoy a physical tier list alongside these wobbly words? Then that’s where it is, and will be, forever and ever.

Excuse the mildly iffy audio on this one!

Have a great weekend, everybody!
