BGB is an amazingly funny, entertaining, and informative board game podcast. The banter is on point and while I couldn’t disagree with Kellen’s game preferences more, the sass and chicanery he brings to the podcast is wildly entertaining. I started listening recently and have been working my way...Read full review »

Great hosts, unique topics, plenty of old and new game coverage. One of the best out there.
SomeDude6547 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/05/24
There are two great things (among many) that make BGB stand out: the mix of hosts and the community they’ve created. All three (sometimes four, if we’re lucky) hosts have different tastes in games, but aren’t exclusive in their tastes. This leads to really good, thoughtful discussions about the...Read full review »

I had to turn it off. The volume change between the two hosts was crazy. I had to keep turning it up and down. One host would blast me out and the next was too quiet. Content seemed good though.

Very nice podcast with great banter. The hosts are all very likable and have a diverse range of tastes in board games, making it all the more relevant as a way to discover good games for you.

Board Game Barrage is my favorite podcast to listen to when kicking back and enjoying a fröccs. The hosts complement each other perfectly, like wine and soda water in a kisfröccs (I prefer it with red wine). Topics are never bland like a sportfröccs, and the best discussions go hard like a...Read full review »

Mark, Neilan, Kellen, and Christina are a pleasure to listen to, and this is my favorite board gaming podcast as a result. There’s also a fun community attached to the podcast where you can participate in special events and contests like the one I “lost” this year by buying Sleeping Gods from...Read full review »

Just a few months ago I ran out of episodes of a long running comedy podcast and found myself trying to fill the hours at work. I work in a kitchen so there is a lot of time to pass while I work. Skeptical of the board game podcast space I finally landed on the BGB “pod” and I’ll never look back....Read full review »

I’ve listened to board game barrage for years, but I finally had to leave a review to acknowledge the depth of research they put into their November 23 “board game epochs” show. Even more impressive than usual!

This is simply the best board game podcast. The chemistry between all four hosts is fun, and their different tastes for games can really help see things from different perspectives. But I especially love that they give plenty attention to older great games rather than just focusing on the latest...Read full review »

Found bgb from their draft episode with susd and now I think they have surpassed susd as my favorite gaming podcast. Great show keep up the good work 👍

So much chemistry
J.Veee via Apple Podcasts · Sweden · 09/21/23
Thanks to PrinceHarming for providing the two stars that iTunes won’t give me. Mark (Biblios Tank), Kellen (Sackson Tank), and Neilan (that Other Tank), put together a fun and informative Board Gaming podcast that covers all kinds of games and topics. Not all topics are bangers *cough* board...Read full review »
Cappster_ via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/15/23
For a podcast about games the hosts seem devoid of any sense of fun. They come across as know-it-alls, condescending and only seem to have a good time when they’re poking fun at each other. The one exception is Christina who comes across with a sense of fun, she has a personality. The...Read full review »
PrinceHarming via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/01/23
This show is the best. As someone who mostly plays family games with other humans, and hobby games solo, I love the variety of games covered. These four tanks are smart! They analyze every facet of a games design and talk about how the game made them feel. This is excellence in board game...Read full review »

This is my favourite board game podcast. I discovered them recently and am currently going through all their episodes. They’re all funny, especially Kellen. My favourite episode of theirs is an old one where they did a top 5 list of bird board games. Not only was Wingspan not mentioned in any of...Read full review »

I started working at a board game cafe just over a year ago and had a 2 hour commute - if only there was a board game podcast to save me? I heard of these guys through SU&SD and began with their BGG Top 100 Draft. The entire back catalogue later, safe to say I’m a massive fan. There is a...Read full review »

I started listening to this podcast a little over a year ago, and it quickly became a ‘can’t miss’ for me. Kellen, Neilan and Mark all have unique tastes and perspectives on games that are both entertaining and insightful. They do this all while having a great time with each other. These guys...Read full review »

Don’t trust these guys, they’re clearly funded by big meeple. They keep pushing their favorite publisher (boardgametables.com) that isn’t a publisher? We see through the thin facade. 5/5 listen in weekly. Better with snack but OK without one.
Small Meeple via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/14/23
BGB has been a favourite podcast of mine for a while. Each host brings a great point of view to board games played and the hobby generally. They keep the podcast focused, with just the right amount of chat and talkback. Love listening to board game barrage.
Jamie B, NZ via Apple Podcasts · New Zealand · 05/05/23
I listen to lots of board game podcasts and I find sometimes they go on a bit too long. But these guys keep it interesting and snappy and really really funny. Love the interaction between all the host. Great work guys keep it up.

New episode of BGB Podcast = best day every week!
Zefirek7 via Apple Podcasts · Poland · 04/06/23
Shut up and Sit Down owns the YouTube space, but Board Game Barrage is the king of board game podcasts. They cover a wide variety of games every week, from the latest hotness to whatever old relic from Mark's youth he happened to have dug out of his closet recently. My only complaint is...Read full review »

Board Game Barrage is my favorite board game podcast. The tanks have great chemistry and always give concise, insightful reviews of both the latest hotness and underrated gems. The podcast has an amazing Discord community where people often get together in person and online to play and discuss...Read full review »

BGB is an excellent podcast. Even more so, an excellent community that delights in the exposure of your lack of self control. I have lack of self control. What lost me The Contest?? It was Japanese imports, that’s what. Blast or Nothing is great, but not sure that was worth losing. If it wasn’t...Read full review »

This podcast is great to listen to. The contributors are funny, know each other well, have an insightful perspective on the board game hobby, and are very consistent about dropping episodes. What more could you want.
Kierkegaard555 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/25/23
This truly is an amazing podcast. I discovered these guys last year and have since listened to every episode. They inject a lot of humor into the show, while still staying on topic and providing interesting insight about the hobby. All three guys have varied tastes in games, so you hear a...Read full review »

Great podcast with great topics! You’ll hear terms like the teach, by virtue, tempo consideration, and many more!

JK. Been listening to boardgame podcasts for years, but came across this one not long ago. Got hooked, it’s so good I listened to all 256 episodes (in reverse order, not sure why). How many hours is that, how fast did I go through them all….Who could say. too bad Biblios is out of print and this...Read full review »

Not the worst but the heavy lisps and inside jokes get old real quick.

Three friends who are drawn to different things within the board games they play. They’re funny and well spoken (maybe funny or well spoken) and they’re board game chatter is engaging and thoughtful. While I align the most with the Red Tank, I imagine the views of the other tanks would give a...Read full review »

Started listening after they won the BGG award this year and overall enjoying their stuff. Reasonably varied and enjoyable to listen to for the most part. HOWEVER, I don’t suppose you’d drop Kellen so please just ask him to drop the lame insults and put downs. It isn’t funny and changes this...Read full review »

I listen to you guys while commuting. Thanks to that it becomes an enjoyable time.
David*MC via Apple Podcasts · France · 09/11/22
I started listening to this podcast at the recommendation of SUSD. Mark, Neilan, and Christina are fantastic hosts. However, Kellen’s arrogance and constant berating of his co-hosts really brings down this podcast. The difficult part is I actually enjoy Kellen’s discussions about board games,...Read full review »

This podcast is something I checked out after the birth of my second child looking for a new board game podcast. I started listening to episode 1 two months ago and cant’t stop. The banter and discussions between the three hosts and regular guest the blue tank, will sometimes just make me laugh...Read full review »

Listen to 2 to 4 Yanks mispronounce "niche" and provide a pretty ecclectic and insightful look into all things boardgames. You'll hear: catchphrases, reasons why Biblios belongs in every boardgame related list ever, H-H-H-H-H-HOT QUESTIONS, tips for things to do with your shower water...Read full review »

I have recently been going through a refinement of everything boardgames. I’ve cultivated my collection, stopped watching certain YouTube channels and reduced my go to podcasts to a handful. I know whose opinions I trust now, and whose I can leave behind. The BGB podcast has taught me to look at...Read full review »

Board Game Barrage has quickly become one of my new favorite podcasts. Their banter is some of the most genuine in the business. The Kellen’s sarcasm and dry humor is second to none, Neilans kindness and likability warms the heart, Christina’s charisma and laughing fits make it impossible to not...Read full review »
