  • Wicked Awesome! That says it all!

    I listen to a handful of podcasts and there are a few that I gleefully look forward to, and get excited for, when I see a new episode pop up. This is one of them! I’ve been listening since the very first episode and haven’t missed a single one. They’ve all been entertaining and full of laughs and humor that hits the spot. Dan and Mike have a great rhythm and harmony in their banter and story telling. As an avid board gamer who’s passionate about the hobby I do love the ether of the show being bu... more

  • Good podcast when Dan controls himself

    Episode 86, “Thanks Conservative government.” - Dan Hughes

    Tuition fees were introduced in the UK for non-international students by a LABOUR government in 1998.

    Political commentary does not belong in a board game podcast. But if Dan cannot help himself he can at least be accurate. And if you do not like being fact checked, there is an easy fix for that.

  • The Disco Toilet of podcasts

    One of the favourite shows I make sure I listen to. The chat between the two hosts is brilliant and the guest line up is always entering. Dan is still my favourite though.

  • A great second choice

    Look, I love these guys. They are my podcast fam. They have tried so hard to be like the Board Game Snobs Podcast and they are really good and enjoyable and fun. And while they aren’t BGS (Board Game Snobs established September 2017 the OG podcast about nothing) they are fantastic. Both hosts are lovable and funny and insightful. The only other podcast I listen to besides Board Game Snobs. Have I mentioned the Board Game Snobs? Love ya Mike and Dan!!!!
