  • Serves its niche well

    Probably not as interesting if you’re not a designer, but I am and it’s always something worthwhile. They have a wide range of guests, and the combination of tabletop and digital expertise works nicely.

  • Seems excellent so far. I'm putting this in, because Podcast Addict demand writing a review of the podcast before you can give local 1-5 stars (with half-star accuracy) for your own means, as indicator of how worthy of re-listening the episode was. more

  • One of the best board game design podcasts, although episodes are usually interviews rather than round table discussions, so the name is a bit of a misnomer.
