  • The banter of the Level Up crew is fun to listen to and you can tell they love games. The 8bit breakdowns are a great way to learn about the features of game to evaluate if it for me, friends or family to play or add to the collection.

  • Fun favorite

    This podcast has become a quick favorite! I love the genuine conversation about board games instead of just pushing the latest hotness. These guys know what they like and aren’t afraid to talk about it. I love the 8-but theme and the extra effort put into transition music between topics. Very professional. I hope to meet these guys at a convention one day!
