  • We gave a hearty recommendation to Watergate in our review (available to watch here - • Watergate Board Game R... ) and now it's time to see which of these two information hoarders will come out on top in our Watergate Let's Play. Wheels and Johnny go head to head as the Washington Post and President Nixon! Haroooo

    Ah Watergate, back when reporters catching politicians doing illegal things actually mattered to people. Those were simpler times.

      ... not sure which political party this comment is against.
      In any case, while I enjoy a good political debate, do we really need to discuss modern politics in this context? Board games are an escape from reality so please keep that in mind. Thanks!
      Edit: I understand that the theme of this game is a bit political. However, it's a good game regardless of the theme and it's history, not modern issues.

    That intro though....Johnny chiodini =crime. What are you trying to say wheels? Are you trying to suggest that Johnny very unuaslly got drunk and used a marker pen to criminally damage a poster in a London tube station? Because that's a scandalous accusation. I'd hope you can prove it.

    • @brentage5000

      Thanks for your comment - the short answer is 'get used to it'. The longer answer is that giving my team the freedom to express themselves is important to me and it's one of the core values on which the channel is built. It's statistically impossible that we're going to see eye to eye with every single one of our viewers, but it's better than not being ourselves. If that's a dealbreaker for you then I understand - figured it was best to be up front. Also, Watergate is an inherently political game so I think it's contextually appropriate. Cheers! - Johnny
