Gene Baur is the founder of Farm Sanctuary, a place of rescue, refuge, and adoption for hundreds of farm animals each year. Farm Sanctuary shelters enable visitors to connect with farm animals as emotional, intelligent individuals. Gene has also led campaigns to change laws about animal treatment and taken undercover photographs of farms, stockyards, and slaughterhouses, documenting deplorable conditions. His pictures and videos exposing factory farming cruelties have aired nationally and internationally, educating millions about the plight of modern farm animals, and his rescue work inspired an international farm sanctuary movement. Once called “the conscience of the food movement” by Time magazine, Gene walks the walk and talks the talk when it comes to food and animal rights. Jay and Gene discuss the political and cultural steps that will bring about the end of factory farming and a healthier approach to animals and food.

In this episode of the Bucket List Board Gamers we implore you to grab some meat, toast, potions, leaves, gems and most importantly anvils, and join us as we discuss Flamecraft from Cardboard Alchemy and Lucky Duck.

Designed by Manny Vega and beautifully illustrated by Sandra Tang, Flamecraft sees the players vying to collect the most points as they travel around a small hamlet of shops occupied by various friendly artisan dragons.

Is there enough gameplay behind the delightful illustrations to make this one a valuable addition to anyone's collection? Listen in and find out!

Note: This was one of the first episodes we recorded, and as such the levels are a bit off, so apologies for that! We're working to get everyone's audio as crisp as possible so please bare with us!

The Bucket List Series - Two Player Games with Luke & Craig! 45:31

26 days ago45:31

45:31

We’re back with the third episode in our flagship “Bucket List” series — and this time, it’s all about Two Player Games! Not all games labeled "2+ players" deliver a great experience with just two at the table. Some feel like afterthoughts, with clunky variants or added admin that takes away from the fun. So in this episode, we’re cutting through the noise and highlighting games designed specifically for two players — the ones that truly shine in head-to-head play. Whether you're gaming with a partner, a friend, or a rival, these are the two-player games worth adding to your bucket list. Thank you as always to our lovely Patreons!

No Jobbers Here - Just Champions! We talk to Alex about Wrestling Game Get Over! 41:52

41:52

Have you ever been playing a board game and suddenly thought 'Man, I'd love to lay the SmackDown on this Jabroni on the other side of the table'? (What?) Well, here's your perfect opportunity! (What?) 'Get Over' is as close to lacing up your boots, throwing on a pair of trunks and dishing out Stunners, Tombstones and People's Elbows as you're likely to get (without risking serious injury and almost certain humiliation, at least.) (What?) We speak to the game's creator Alex, and he tells us where the idea came from, why it's so important to him, which wrestlers he'd like to have dinner with and much more! (What?) This episode is a love letter to WWE, and as such there may be points where non-grappling fans wonder what the hell is going on, but hopefully everyone enjoys it regardless! (What?) And that's the bottom line... because The Bucket List Board Gamers said so! **Important Information** As of this episode's release the Get Over Kickstarter is LIVE and we'd encourage you to check it out!

Spinning the Spokes - We Discuss AI in Gaming with Mark Stockton- Pitt! 45:26

25 weeks ago45:26

45:26

AI Art. A controversial subject in any walk of life, but especially relevant in the Board Gaming industry at the moment, as the debate rages on over whether it should be OK to release a game using art generated by AI. We chat to Mark Stockton-Pitt of Radical 8 Games, who was recently accused of using AI art when every single piece of artwork in Spokes, is original and by an established board gaming artist. In a cruel twist of fate, some of Nick's audio went haywire, so we had to use an AI Voice generator to fill in the gaps, so be ready for that! Enjoy! **USEFUL INFORMATION** You can back Spokes NOW over on Kickstarter here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/radical8games/spokes and until the 17th March!

Draw, Draw & Draw Some More! Interview with Gerardo Priore from Beyond Words Games 38:12

38:12

Yes we're back with another interview episode, and this time we're talking to Gerardo from Beyond Words Games about his induction title... The Strange Forgeries Of Mr. S.C.Rheber! We discuss the game, the inspiration, the origins of induction games, and quite pertinently, the role that reviewers and influencers play in the launch of a board game. Apologies for the sound quality in places, we've tried to clean it up as best we can but the connection wasn't fantastic. Enjoy! Buy The Strange Forgeries Of Mr. S.C.Rheber! Late pledges for The Strange Forgeries Of Mr. S.C.Rheber are available on Gamefound by clicking here . The BGG Forum Post You may well be familiar with Gerardo's name / Beyond Words Games thanks to a recent forum post on Board Game Geek, which we tried not to discuss too much in the episode for a couple of reasons. Firstly we were keen to keep the episode focused on The Strange Forgeries Of Mr. S.C.Rheber, and secondly it was, at the time, still a developing situation where some parties had not been given a full chance to reply. As such some parts have been cut down to avoid confusion, and as a result it does sound like Jay talks a lot when the subject arises. Jay is aware he talks too much in general, but this time it wasn't his fault! The situation has since been resolved, and we have discussed with Gerardo the possibility of a second episode to set things straight and talk about things from start to finish. But if you'd like to know more about what we discuss you can check out the forum post here: BGG Forum Post Thanks to our monthly supporters Jerry Moncrief Daniel Fullard ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★…
