Fun to listen to. Never thought much about the ideas behind a board game. This podcast lets me look at my games differently
I enjoy this one. Keeps getting better.
I really like this show. The real-life look at popular game inspirations is a great angle, and I always learn something from these guys. They produce their show well and make sure to keep things breezy and interesting. Recommended for any tabletop fan who enjoys a little knowledge with their gaming!
I love the concept of taking a board game and using that as a platform to learn something new. Mike and Spencer bring such enthusiasm to each topic and I get to find out about new games to try.
Betrayal episode was a little spoOOoooky. And sometimes I can’t tell if it’s Mike or Spencer speaking. Other than that, fun and interesting podcast! These guys have a good rapport and I learn something new every episode!
