You know, again, depending on what actions you can take. And so then after you do all your stuff, then what happens is then you spawn heroes. And so you draw the card and it tells you what rooms to put what kinds of heroes in. The heroes do their special abilities. And then they'll either attack monsters or try to open the chests.

in the room, or if they can't do either of those two things, then they'll move one step closer to the vault. And the chests are numbered. So if it's a one, then it takes one activated hero to open it. If it's a two, it takes two. You kind of get the idea. So anyway, that's essentially the game. There are a couple of other nuances to it. And of course,

it has a series of dungeons that you can play through. And so, you know, there are different rules for the different dungeons as far as how they work. The way you win is you exhaust the hero pile twice. And yeah, the way you lose is, if the heroes open the chest in the vault, which is the four, uh, chest. So anyway, uh, really fun game takes about, uh, what, 45 minutes ish to play.

Um, the artwork on it is awesome. The different types of monsters are fun. Um, and so, yeah, I've played it. It plays one to four players. I've played it with three and four players. And anyway, it's, it's a fun game. Um, Yeah, so I'm going to pick that. And then one movie I've been wanting to watch for a while, mostly because I just heard it was really good, is Hillbilly Elegy.

Now, I recognize that this is the memoir by J.D. Vance, who's currently Donald Trump's running mate. So politics aside... Right. And I try not to get into it too much on this show. Long time listeners know where I stand on all this stuff, but I don't want to make the show about politics. But the story is amazing.

And, you know, the fact that, you know, this kid can come from basically the kind of place and lifestyle that he did and then become. you know, wind up going to Yale law school and then, you know, becoming us Senator. I mean, I just find that incredibly inspiring and, you know, at the end of the day, then, you know, how you feel about him now, whatever it it's really well done.

It has Glenn close and Amy Adams in it. Um, I haven't read the book, so I, I don't know how closely they stuck to it, but, um, Anyway, there were just several, I think, life lessons that anybody can benefit from. From the standpoint of, hey, look, if you really want these things out of your life, then you can go have them if you're willing to do what it takes.

And so, you know, from that standpoint, yeah. I really liked the movie. There was something else I was going to pick and I just... Oh yeah, it was the Mike Rowe film. And this one is on the Angel Studios app. I think it's called Something to Stand For. And this is more, it's almost a documentary. So if you've listened to the rest of the story by Paul Harvey, it's kind of based on that.

that's also the premise of Mike's podcast, at least when he started it. Now he just interviews people that are interesting to him. But what he would do is he would tell the, tell the story without telling you who it was about. Right. And so at the end, then he, you know, there's the big reveal. And, and so the, the, this person was, you know, Neil Armstrong or whatever. Right.

And, you know, and so that's the rest of the story is kind of the idea. And so he tells a bunch of those from a U S history from moments that, in some way shaped the direction of the country. And anyway, I really, really enjoyed that too. Uh, so I'll put a link to that in the comments as well.
