It’s a rainy night in Portland.  It’s toward the end of a long week, and it’s getting late.  Energy levels are low and we are far from progressing to our next power plant upgrade.

But we push forward and fight through the dead air.  We will not be defeated.  We will discuss this beast called The Capitals.  We will conquer a wonky rule book and fiddly mechanics, and we will be the better for it.  For this Capital can be beautiful.

We had more podcasts recorded than Tuesdays in January, so please enjoy this special mid-month release.

** Correction — Contrary to a story related in this podcast, the inventor of the Segway is alive and well.  However, said device is responsible for an ironic death and we’ll uncover that mystery in episode 10 (or if you’re impatient and need to know, well, there’s this thing called the internet).
