  • Not just a podcast; a game club!

    Love this listener-participation format! Chat about the upcoming game on the discord (or past games or a host of other topics both on and off) and then listen to the capstone! Good chemistry between the hosts as well!

  • Like hanging out with friends

    I love listening to these guys, and what’s especially unique about their podcasts is that they have very different levels of experience with homebrew, which makes conversations more interesting. They cover a range of genres across a range of consoles, giving exposure to some very worthy homebrews. Listening to them is like hanging out with old friends you’re excited to share your games with. If only they could hear me talking back in their chats.

  • Top Tier

    HBGC has quickly risen to the top of my podcast list! In addition to being generally very entertaining, the “invite the community to play the games along with us” format really adds a whole new dimension. My wife and I have done some recent roadtrips and these episodes definitely helped make the long stretches fun for us.
