Ava likes proper crunchy fiddly stupid euros with rules for building degradation and five different score trackers, and crucially they can explain the joy of those games better than I ever could...

    So glad to see Button Shy getting more coverage. They make so many great small games. In Vino Morte is my favorite because I feel like it gives all of the satisfaction of a much longer bluffing/deduction game into about 5-10 minutes. Also, it's basically the poisoned wine scene from the Princess Bride. If someone doesn't reference Iocane powder at some point, you might be playing it wrong.

    One of the funniest SU&SD’s for a while, some genuine laugh out loud moments. Cracking work, Tom (apart from the Uncut Gems picture....no, anxiety inducing movie not required in current lockdown!).

    Toms reviewer persona is so expressive. Always some kind of twinkle in his eyes.

    Sedlec Ossuary? Kozel, Braník and Radegast beer? OMG, so many czech connections in one SU&SD video!! Awesome!! (We are small nation, we get excited quite easily)

    Most of my video consumption is RUclips, and Tom is my favorite. Does that make him the best on the planet? Definitely kind of. Humor wavelength is the one I love - similar to Kyle SNL Cut for Times.

    Showing the kitten was the best weird flex I’ve ever seen.
