Great show that keeps people up todate on what is going on around the boardgame world.
This podcast has always been very informative. There aren’t many places out there where you can get boardgame news, so Brainwaves is one of those rare beasts. It’s always a pleasure to listen to and I love their decor as well. Try it out for yourself.
Good mix of interesting news from the board game/ RPG world with added flights of fancy. I really enjoy the rubber band reality they create and the discussions are often insightful too. Thanks to the hosts.
If you’re looking for a news format show about board games, RPGs and card games then you couldn’t do much better than this.
There’s news, discussion and just a little bit of comedy, delivered by a group of friends who have a real enthusiasm for gaming.
Great tabletop podcast that breaks from the normal format.
