This is one of the best board gaming podcasts out there. The audio quality is great, hosts are interesting and they tackle heavier games. I love it!

My absolute favorite board game podcast. The chemistry amongst the hosts is stellar, even if they are not fans of Terraforming Mars. 😉 if you like euro games, this is the podcast for you. One of the rare podcasts that I listen to every bit of every episode.

Simply the best podcast if you’re into medium-heavy board games. The hosts give off a great warm vibe while having excellent taste in games, and the banter never seems mean spirited, but is still entertaining and funny. Whole heartedly recommend it!

These are a bunch of really great guys to listen to. Good conversation and great ideas are discussed without the attitude or smugness you can get when dudes talk games together. Love listening, great 'feel good' vibes and board game talk!!!Read full review »

As soon as I started listening to this show, it became one of my favourites. First of all, sound quality is great, which can be a dealbreaker for many otherwise great podcasts. The three hosts are easy-going, positive, friendly, respectful and overall a joy to listen to. You can tell these guys...Read full review »

These guys provide refreshing board game content. I enjoy their draft approach to top 10 lists the most.
Qwedszxc via Apple Podcasts · South Africa · 09/11/19
It’s been a while since I searched for new board gaming podcasts that I hadn’t heard of yet and in a recent search, I came across this one. First off, this podcast has great sound quality! Nothing kills a podcast for me quicker than crappy audio. I enjoy the way the guys interact, they seem to...Read full review »

I sincerely look forward to listening to every podcast you guys put up. Thanks for sharing your board game adventures with us!

I've been listening to this podcast for over a year. The chemistry between the hosts is wonderful, the episodes are well structured and keep me interested all along. I dont agree with many of their raitings but their insights are very well described. Their favourite game drafts are always fun...Read full review »

I've tried a lot of different boardgaming podcasts and most get removed from my list quite quickly. Punchboard Paradise manages to remain. The combination of fun interaction and honest reviews is golden for me!Read full review »
Saaur via Apple Podcasts · Netherlands · 09/03/19
Punchboard Paradise is a gem among dozens of board game podcasts that don’t quite hit the mark. The mix of the dynamic between Richie, Clef, and Chad, their differing tastes in games, and the unique segments they have keeps the podcast fresh and exciting. Punchboard Paradise never gets boring,...Read full review »
Grmpichardo via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/03/19
Punchboard Paradise is consistently one of the best podcasts I listen to. The three hosts are knowledgeable, experienced gamers who are able to give meaningful comparisons to past games while also pointing out the things that make a game unique. They have saved me from purchasing mistakes...Read full review »

Just discovered this podcast but I really like their reviews. Great discussions and they really dive into the meat of the game. Will continue to listen often!
Fletch W via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/31/19
This is an outstanding podcast to get recommendations for new heavy eurogames to try! I especially appreciate Clef's no-nonsense approach to his reviews. Mechanics are everything!Read full review »
jbredthauer via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/31/19
3 things needed to make a podcast work and the Punchboarders bring it! I often go to their podcast for a quality review of a game because all 3 hosts have very different opinions of games!
Rendamere via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/30/19
Just started listening to this group. I love how they are eager to review, but not necessarily agree on games.. this is a pull no punches, good look into board games. As well, they seem to tackle some pretty heavy choices and that draws me into the conversation every time!! Well done. And thanks.
MessedUpGames via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 08/30/19
If you love euro boardgames you should listen this podcast: always interesting and fun to hear. Definitely recommend!
Jed1knight_nl via Apple Podcasts · Netherlands · 08/29/19
I listen to a lot of board game related podcasts and Punchboard Paradise has become my absolute favourite. Every game I want to know more about they cover. I enjoy all of the segments-Kickstarter corner, the drafts, what they have been playing etc. I love all 3 of the guys opinions and I share...Read full review »
Lizzygav via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 08/29/19
These guys know their games. All three have unique takes on each game making their reviews accessible to all types of players. They have great banter and Chad does voices (sort of). Highly recommend these guys.

Kneebiter via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/29/19
This is one of my favorite podcasts. The reviews are in-depth and honest and the hosts have great taste in games! I always feel informed and entertained at the end of the episode.
Bcoberly via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/29/19
This podcast is a fun listen. The are more Euro game focused which I like. Different opinions on the show is nice. Still growing and finding their way, I see them continuing to improve.
Nova6scc via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/29/19

I enjoy listening to a local group talking about the games they’ve been playing, and they keep up with all the new games on the market.

My husband got me to listen to this even though I haven’t been a huge fan of podcasts. But I have come to really enjoy their banter and discussion of board games and look forward to each episode now. Great job and keep it up! If you haven’t listened...give it a shot!
ohiofarmgirl via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/28/19
If you love games. If you love heavier games. You will love Punchboard Paradise. Chad, Clef are Richie are entertaining, knowledgeable and honest in their opinions. I’ve paired down my gaming podcasts, but this one will never leave the collection. PS the Kickstarter Corner music is the best.
Scott-O-Matic via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/28/19
The gents have fantastic interaction and cover games on the heavier side which is my wheelhouse. Keep up the good work.
TheCasuals via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/28/19
I've tried quite a few board games podcasts and this one up there with my favorites. A little newer, but I like that the 3 hosts have different tastes so you don't get group think when it comes to their reviews. The hosts are also honest in their reviews, which is a breath of fresh air...Read full review »

Very entertaining show with a lot of enthusiasm on the part of the hosts!
Gralem02 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/28/19
I’ve been listening to more podcasts recently and this has been a good mix of rules introduction with higher level discussion of games.
QuellSpeller via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/28/19
This is a great show. The draft of games, publishers, etc is a unique way to think about lists. I love the opinions of all three hosts, they help guild me towards games I know I will like!
JHopp88 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/28/19
These guys produce a great podcast about boardgames. They will always give you their honest opinion in their board game reviews and are always on top of the new releases in the gaming industry. On top of that their banter is entertaining. Sure fire listen if you are into boardgames.
SamIAm2519 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/04/19
Great board gaming info for the heavy or light gamers
bjoerz via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/16/19
I play board games but I am strange in that I like watching people play board games (like Wil Wheaton’s Tabletop) and listen to people talk about them more than playing them myself. I like the way these guys make you feel like you’re sitting at a table with them discussing these games. I know the...Read full review »
Timelord2112 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/15/19
This podcast is now one of my top podcasts for board games (up there with Secret Cabal and Blue Peg Pink Peg). If you like economic or Euro style board games, this is the one to listen to. Great banter, good analysis in the reviews (it is clear they have played the game being reviewed many...Read full review »
sheepbaron via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/03/19
These three guys are absolutely awesome. The episode length is just right. They get down to talking about games in a timely manner! They know what gamers want in a podcast....to hear about games. It’s nice not to have to wait until minute 15 to finally here about a board game! They get right down...Read full review »

This is quickly becoming one of favorite podcasts. If you enjoy heavy euros you’re going to love the punch boarders. Informative as well as entertaining. You won’t go wrong. Love it.
Ohiofarmerboy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/19/19
I got turned on to this podcast after reading Clef’s top 100 on BGG and I’m glad I did. I now wait for every new episode so I can listen when it comes out. Chad, Ritchie, and Clef have great chemistry and sound like they must obviously be good friends outside of this podcast. They each have...Read full review »
JR04068 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/17/19
I'm struggling a bit here because I want to tell you how great these guys are, but when I try to think of examples, it's mostly just about how annoying they're not. They're engaging and clearly excited about the subject matter, but they don't shout at you and employ wacky...Read full review »

Checkout Punchboard Paradise for insightful topics on all things related to the modern board game hobby.
bhudson1972 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/06/18
I was looking for a good podcast that reviews board games and I found it. The banter between all of the cohosts is very entertaining. The draft idea is unique and clever. Keep it up!
AmyPondWhovian via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/18/18
Great podcast, keep it rolling guys and go Hawkeyes!!
sarahwed317 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/12/18
These guys are definitely worth a listen! I enjoy the twist these guys do on the typical top X games lists. They each “draft” games so that no list has duplicate games and it makes for some fun conversation. Give these guys a shot and you won’t be disappointed. Getting better and better with each...Read full review »
The North Rememb3rs via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/12/18
Love the back and forth between the group and the number of games covered. They keep on track with board game talk with just the right amount of personal reference stories which really shows that they enjoy games. Great people, great podcast! Keep it up!
tomee638 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/09/18
Great and educational podcast! I listen every time and can’t wait for the next.
fkareaer via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/26/18
Omaha, Nebraska! Really cool podcast so far and a big plus because it’s from Omaha. I’m currently based in Taiwan and it’s cool to listen to a podcast from Omaha. The guys cover different board games and discuss their replay value and concepts of the games.
