Good show. As I started with the far superior Moldvay/Cook set back in '81 myself I let you and Liz slide on your Homesian predisposition

I loved Liz's reading of the warning at the beginning of the Expert set though, such a dire warning wasn't it haha!

I know you have a zillion things on your list, but I nominate Call of Cthulhu and/or Tunnels & Trolls.

Keep up the fine work! How did you persuade DM Liz to cover B/X before Holmes (although I note quite a bit of Holmes crept into the conversation)?

Well, we had mentioned (re)reviewing the Moldvay/Cook B/Ex game on the other podcast, but left before we had a chance to. This way, we felt it was something we could do for our listeners even on the new show. But don't worry, I'm sure Holmes will be coming up soon. Maybe we can get Chris Holmes on to chat about it too!
