ITS A NEW YEAR EVERYBODY. Every year the Melonmancy Podcast starts a new season going over what the best new games we played in the last year was. Dielan posted this thread on SPC asking people on fedi what their pics were, and we read each one of them out with comments. It was a great time had by all.

# Ladies and gentlemen of the court of public opinion, welcome to the trial of Ralph Panebianco This episode is super delayed to get edited.

This episode took so long to edit because Dielan went on to finish the game before editing the episode. Just could not put it down.
