Sigh…the search for a good podcast continues

“I have been looking for a good board game podcast for awhile. This one was recommended to me by a friend. After a few episodes I am not quite sure how I feel about SVWAG. On one hand I really appreciate their knowledge and experience about the hobby. Their analysis about good mechanics (or lack there of) is very insightful. It doesn’t hurt that their tastes usually align with mine. I’ve seen several negative reviews complaining about their progressive politics which doesn’t bother me. My main gripe is the tone of one of the hosts. I thought Mark had a bad day on the latest episode and went back to other episodes and found the same bombastic, acidic attitude. At best, he sounds like the guy at your FLGS who makes fun of the games you like - at worst he sounds like a condescending talk-radio host screaming into the abyss while Mike tries to calm him down. There are a few glimmers of self-aware sarcasm where I suspect Mark is in on the joke but most of the time he just comes off as the “sweaty try-hard” that he constantly bemoans. Like I said, I agree with most of his points. He just doesn’t sound like he is having any fun.”

“I listen to this boardgame podcast as well as The Dice Tower and the Secret Cabal. Ive tried a few others, but SVWAG is my favorite. I often don’t share their opinions on the enjoyment of particular games, but I love the way they review them.”

“Found this podcast through Reddit, and am so glad I did. There's a reason why so many in the hobby consider this to be the best podcast on board games. If you want to know what a game is like, this is the one to listen to.”Read full review »

“I understand you feel obligated to say certain words with a heavy Quebec accent, but it’s really turning me off your podcast.
Other than that I’m enjoying the podcasts a lot.”
