“Hi and thank you for a great podcast!
I’ve played some board games during my life, with focus on early 2000’s eurogames like Catan, Caracassone and so on. Magic the Gathering have been with me for a large portion of my life, but during recent years with small children I haven’t prioritized playing at all. I recently came back to more board gaming and a friend introduced med to Everdell at the behinning of 2024. So as I usually do with a new interest I scanned the web for resources on the game and stumbled upon your podcast, among others.
I really liked the way you communicate and you gave me the kind of input I was looking for. I listened on a few episodes of several podcasts about board games but yours is the only one that stuck.
Oh boy, am I glad it did?! Not my wallet though…
The excitement you had when you talked about Thunder Road Vendetta got me intrigued so I watched and listened to all content I could get hold on. I got hooked and decided to buy the game, but it was completely out of stock here in Sweden.
Luckily for me the second Kickstarter was just about to go live so I went all in with the big deal of the day and was one of the first 300 backers for the game.
Even though I once more listened to other podcasts for TRV content I still kept leaning towards you guys. Maybe I haven’t found them all but your podcast is the only one that got me hooked.
For me it’s the way you talk to each other, how you all live ordinary lives with ordinary problems and a friendly tone.
So far I’ve listened to all episodes for 2024 and 2020, working my way to listen to all episodes made. Most games aren’t for me but I really like to hear your voices when I commute.
Keep up the good work!
Best regards
Erik”

“I really like the concept of this show, especially since opinions can change on multiple plays. They also aren’t afraid to be critical of the games that didn’t hit the spot.
Very easy sub. Well done on a great show”

“I generally disagreed with the premise of this show (immediate response/review after one play) AND I love it. They have turned me around to seeing the format’s value, and more importantly their friendship shows through in each episode.
Weekly Monday releases are a pleasant start to my work...”Read full review »

“The hosts are all fun and thoughtful with their topics. Sometimes their hot takes hurt my heart (lol) because I'm super into a particular game, but there's lots of nuance to the discussion. Looking forward to listening to more episodes.”Read full review »
