Brainwaves - Board Game and Tabletop News Show
Leisure:Games
Welcome to Brainwaves a fortnightly podcast bringing you the best in Boardgame and Tabletop Gaming News. Fresh off their time at Tabletop Scotland, Iain and Sam cover their time at the convention. Jamie and Sam then dive into the rest of the news, the Rock cooks something up in the kitchen, Iain digs some mysterious holes in the Brainwaves garden and Sam goes into The Chair. Once Iain is back out of the garden the gang discuss the rise of apps in tabletop gaming and what they can bring to the table and finish up with a nice coffee at Meeple Perk.
