23.01.2022 Most people you will share the RPG table with are fun, sociable, and play well with others. Sometimes though you get someone who rubs everyone else up the wrong way. Often referred to as 'That Guy', Connor takes a look at all the different types of 'That Guy' and how to deal with them. Did he miss a type? Let us know in the comments. http://atgn.com.au/that-guy-a-breakdown-of-everyones-least/

04.01.2022 Barnet and the 'Peanut Gallery' are a little indisposed this evening, so we're kicking off a rerun of "Monday Night TCG's" from two weeks ago (November 2nd) when Barnet had an exceptional evening and managed to go 7-0 convincingly. I mean, if you're going to air a rerun better to make it a good one right?
