  • It's a good podcast!

    I think it's really easy to take local game stores for granted, but there's often a lot going on behind the scenes to make them run. Frank does a great job facilitating discussion with his guests, and I'm honestly impressed at the wide range of store owners he's gotten on the show. If you're curious what it's like to run a games shop, whether because the thought of opening your own crossed your mind or because you just want to know what it's like, this is the podcast for you. It's entertaining a... more

  • A new type of mtg podcast

    There are a lot of mtg podcasts out there but not many that look directly at the stores that fuel our in gaming experiences. This podcast takes an in depth look at the stores that provide us the cards we play with. As someone who’s been in the industry for decades it’s amazing to hear the origins of other stores and see how they do things. Great interviews and alot of great information to be had here. I look forward to seeing where this cast goes as it’s already off to a great start.

  • A unique fun podcast for gamers

    I love this podcast! I've been a gamer of all types for years, but I never really thought about how game stores worked. This podcast really feels like a bunch of episodes of "How it's made" and I love it! I've listened to all of the episodes so far and the guests are super enthusiastic and knowledgeable about their stores. It makes me want to fly across the country and visit them - especially Zulus Games. I really want to try Tony's food! The host keeps a good pace on the interviews and the conv... more

  • Great interviewer, great choice of interviewees, and great all-around!

    Frank does a stellar job getting his interviewees to expand upon the nitty-gritty of the behind-the-scenes work that keeps game stores running. Listening to the owners gives you a sense of what you take for granted when you visit an independently run shop, especially considering many struggled to get by before the pandemic and the current state of inflation. This isn't just a podcast for game stores either—if you're into comics or fandom in general, there's something here for you. The conversati... more
