BGB Podcast #329 – All the Stars Are Here!

I’m not sure why you’d make a hall of fame that’s not also a sidewalk, but that’s exactly what BoardGameGeek have gone and done – they’ve curated 25 games into their hall of fame, and we’re here to judge them for their choices. It’s weird that they didn’t come to us first, honestly. Before we deck the halls, we talk about Arborea, Beyond the Horizon, and Taiwan Night Market.
