NOTE: Just to clarify. At 5:07, when discussing adding a token onto a food symbol, if you are taking advantage of trading in two food as any 1 food - you treat those as the food they "became", just not as the tokens they were. So if you trade in two fruit tokens to fulfill a seed cost, and the bird had a seed cost - you can place a duet token onto a seed space.

Does a wild food cost on a bird card match any food type on the duet board? (Like a wild star nest matches any type of nest?) Or no food spaces or the food type you actually used when playing the bird?

Monique did a great job with this tutorial, especially being her first one. Let's hope she'll reach Rodney's expertise on teaching board games in the future. In addition, maybe we'll see the other people on the Watch It Played channel doing board game tutorials someday, especially if Chaz can teach a game and make us laugh at the same time during it, Paula and Matt teach a 2-player game and argue about who teaches what part, etc.
