    Welcome to “But, Why Vikings?”. Each episode your hosts Tim Clare, Ava Foxfort, and Iain McAllister will answer a variety of tabletop related questions sent in to them by listeners. From tabletop etiquette to historical mysteries there is no question too esoteric for this group of gaming agony aunts.

    In this episode Ava and Tim dive into the mail bag and come up with 2 questions from our lovely listeners. They think about hyperfixating on games and how it can affect your relationships as well as the potential benefits of gaming solo.
