Dom, Albert, Andy, and Danny all talk about why we still play the original collectible card game, 17 years after the first cards were printed. From Yu-Gi-Oh! bashing to old war stories to Amy playing cards with her cat, we talk about plenty of topics for people who've never played the game before, as well as some more in-depth conversations that require some knowledge of the game.

We randomly pick six scraps through the show. Each Scrap is dedicated 5 minutes of time. We don't know what the scraps will be ahead of time, neither do our guest hosts! It's all just for fun and an easier way for us to get an episode finished during very busy weekends. We hope you enjoy our first attempt at Six Scraps.

Grounded as a United States school tradition, each one of us take a look back at our youth and rediscover some stories and personal moments that were a part of the many summer vacations. This one steps a bit back on the popular culture, though the concept does tie into many elements of popular culture (ie. Summer Movie season, Amusement parks, television reruns). So just have a cold beverage and sit back for a more personal episode with the S-Words podcast.
