Great podcast if you like minis

These guys cover a wide variety of games, and adroitly avoid making you feel bad for liking games they don’t. Their taste in games varies enough that they cover about the entire spectrum of games, even if they don’t love the same ones I do, they give everyone a fair shot.

They keep it lite, and the show never runs too long, and if you’re lucky, they break out the sound effects.

If you do listen, reach out to them and inform them they are wrong about miniature games, and so very right about sharing their love of boardgames.

Honestly a fun show, without the heavy handedness of some other podcasts out there.

Also, games with minis are awesome, but so are games with cubes, dice, and anything in the Mediterranean.
