Episode 373: Fantasy Draft: Two Player Games It's been a while since we've done one of these! Bored from our recent bouts of co-operative board game drafting, this week's episode sees the return to the competitive format, where we pit our games against one another, and let you decide who did it best. This week, two player games. Also... did we mention you can win $50 just by voting? Before we revel in democracy, we also talk about Rolling Freight, and Six-Sided Seas.

Episode 372: Kellen's Kull Perhaps inspired by our recent embracing of minimalism a month ago, Kellen's going all in on reducing his games. In fact, he's already done it, and is here to tell all about everything that's left his collection and why. Before we recover shelf space, we talk about Epona, and Cheops.

Episode 371: Essen SPIEL 2026 Hype List We're not going to Essen, and frankly, may never, but that won't stop us from wishing we were going. From the mountain of games we won't get to play in person, we've mined for the diamonds that we think you should keep your eyes on. Before we get to digging, we talk about Hanami, Brink, and Railway Boom.

Episode 370: On Brand It's a designer spotlight, which means we're turning the focus away from us, and putting it on some prestigious designers instead! This week it's Inka and Markus Brand, whose story apparently has a whole enemies to lovers angle I did not see coming. Before we power duet, we talk about Party House: The Deckbuilding Game, Land and Freedom: The Spanish Revolution and Civil War, and Baba Is You: The Board Game.

Episode 369: The Life-Changing Magic of a Minimalist Board Game Collection We're downsizing, imagining a brighter future where we don't have hundreds of games to fret about not playing, but a very slight, extremely manageable twenty. Some say it can't be done, but that's never stopped us before. Before we get low, we talk about After you, Betobeto-san, Skull Queen, and Star Trek: Captain's Chair - To Boldly Go.
