Ep 95**Classic Throwback** Enya

In lieu of a hot fresh new episode this week, due to poor time management, an overworked editor and too much time spent watching football and Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, we will instead be diving back into the archives for cheap downloads. With an apropos intro to boot listen in to what was originally Episode 20 of the Board Game Snobs podcast, the Enya episode. This is one Jerry often mentions as a turning point in the path of the Snobs podcast. Is it? Who knows but they planned on being a succinct, well thought out podcast about board games. That didn’t happen. Enjoy!! ORIGINAL PODCAST SYNOPSIS: This podcast will be released this week on 7/19/18 due to technical difficulties and a CEASE and DESIST order from the ENYA estate (it will all make sense when you hear the podcast, Jerry got scared and took out the music due to being worried about copyright stuff) We will be discussing the following games/things this podcast: 1.ENYA 2. thats a question? the board game 3 IMPERIAL 2030 and why its awesome 4. Decrypto and how Jerry got confused 5. various other things ...Tune in for our most unprofessional podcast yet!
