Manage episode 445419564 series 3383107
Why do we still play board games? After discovering the hobby and being settled into it our hosts look bad and see that we have been playing board games for over 10 years with no end in sight. Why? This is the topic of our discussion today.
Before we get to the discussion though we talk about some very exciting games that we have played. beautiful and tight Kelp: Octopus vs Shark, the harsh and tactical John Company 2nd Edition and the silly but amazing Dropolter.
We welcome Joel back to the podcast for a second time and we are proud to present this week's podcast.
