Okay, here is part 2 of "Agricola: In depth" - a conversation with local SoCal Agricoholics Stephanie Kelleher and Chris Johnson. Both were nice enough to join me for a discussion about the game, the strategies, some favorite cards and whether the game will remain so highly rated as more people get the chance to play it.

This podcast is sponsored by the wonderful folks at Gateplay.com. Check them out for great games at terrific prices and free shipping with a $100 order. A terrific site for gamers new to the hobby as well as the full initiated.

A couple of additional items:

Strategicon is raising their rates for the next convention, Gateway 2008, but you can still get the old convention rate through July 31st - including your BGG Patron or Boardgamenews.com Subscriber discount. Check it out now and join us for this great convention on the Labor Day Weekend.

GameInk.net is a great place to buy gamer shirts that don't look too much like gamer shirts (that's a good thing). They had the good taste to design an utterly wonderful RA shirt but they cannot seem to get enough votes to have it be one of their latest prints. Luckily, they saw my attempts to shamelessly get people to vote for the RA shirt by offering to buy extras to give away at BGG.con and now we're working on trying to get it printed if enough people will contact me and commit to purchasing one. So, if you are interested - please send me an e-mail and let me know.

Thanks again for downloading and listening to Boardgame Babylon.
