I loved Richards podcast and was sad to see him stop. Sal has revitalized it in an amazing way. Can’t wait for the next episodes.

Great podcast for anyone using kickstarter with a focus on board games. Also good for lots of business and marketing tips no matter what your line of work is.

Sometimes the marketing jargon and double speak is a little hard to listen to, but it’s totally worth it for the depths of insight. A must-listen if you want to raise money crowdfundung—not just for boardgamers!

Passionate, down-to-earth, focused (and from what I can tell by listening to almost 50 episodes on some recent LONG road trips), a great guy. My focus is not board games, but the...Read full review »

An excellent source for all things Kickstarter. Richard has helped my campaigns become better by applying the lessons learned from "Funding the Dream." The 20 minutes of each show makes it approachable and perfect for listening anywhere, in the car, on a walk, jogging, even just around the house.

Richards background is marketing and so his insight seems to apply to more than just crowd funding but any kind of marketing these days. Enjoy the episodes on the way to work. Thanks

I've been an avid listener (and occasional participant) of this podcast for 2 years now, and I am SO grateful that it exists. If you're interested in Kickstarter or crowdfunding, you absolutely need to listen to Funding the Dream on Kickstarter.

We’re just about to launch out first Kickstarter campaign (which has nothing to do with board games) and have found Richards podcast extremely helpful! Been working through the last 50 or so episodes over the last 2 months.

This is the most informative podcast in crowd-funding. I'd like to see a bit more on the design and tech categories. Thanks

Richard always has interesting and engaging guests. He must do a ton of research for each interview. He's always well versed and asked probing interview questions.

I listened to the first episode, and The Game Whisperer told me everything I was doing wrong with my Kickstarter. He interviewed me on the second episode and we figured out that there was still one thing I was doing right. I'm biased, yes, but if you're a board game entrepreneur looking to use...Read full review »
