On this week's episode Conor, Joe and Dan sit down with one of our favourite returning guests, Bobby Hill. We discuss the reception he received from 2021's Hadrian's Wall before diving into his upcoming 2025 release: The Anarchy. Bobby shares the story of this tumultuous time in history and how he was able to use it as inspiration for his next Euro-and-write game.
In Sizzling Games, Joe reveals that he is a real fungi, Dan is matching wits with his nemesis, Bobby is composing a winning symphony, and Conor is visiting space and feline fine.
There's also the Question of the Pod, Swear an Oath, and all of the usual shenanigans you've come to expect from the Board Game BBQ Podcast.
New Question of the Pod: What historical setting would you like to see made into a board game?
