| #347: Bob's Design | 13 Nov 2025 | 01:11:18 | |
BGBBOB is back, and it's been long enough that you might need a reminder. Ten game designers enter the ring, and through the arduous process of one vs one battles, we arrive at our (and not just our, but the) definitive ranked list of ... these particular designers. It's science. Before we fight it out, we talk about Iliad, The Old King's Crown, and Franchise. 03:29 - Iliad Get added to the BGB community map at: Send us topic ideas at: Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||
| #346: It's One Bananagrams, How Much Could It Cost? | 30 Oct 2025 | 00:50:39 | |
This episode is not about Bananagrams (at least, I don't think so), but it is about the price of things (though not Bananagrams specifically, shut up about Bananagrams). In a world where everything costs more, we're talking about the value of games, and how far a game has to go to justify its price. Before we decide if the price is right, we talk about The Presence, and River of Gold. 02:08 - The Presence Get added to the BGB community map at: Send us topic ideas at: Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||
| #337: Our Listeners' Top 20 Board Games of All-Time 2025 | 26 Jun 2025 | 00:57:49 | |
It's time again to turn the tables and get your take, to feel out the collective tastes of you, the listeners of the show. It's the annual Listener Top 20! You've been sending in all of your lists (thank you!), I've been compiling all of the data (you're welcome!) - and here it is, in a convenient list format. Before we ask the audience, we talk about Flip 7, Hot Streak, and Kolejka. 02:37 - Flip 7 Get added to the BGB community map at: Send us topic ideas at: Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||
| #247: We Played A Heap of Games! | 13 Oct 2022 | 01:05:02 | |
What good would going to a convention be if we didn't play a lot of games? We're back from our trip, and it was filled to the brim of fine games played with fine people, and we're here to tell you about all of them, the good, the bad, and perfunctory. Before we return to Vancouver, we talk about Village Rails, The Guild of Merchant Explorers, and Puzzle Strike 2. 01:51 - Village Rails Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||
| #246: SHUX 2022 Live with Tom Brewster | 06 Oct 2022 | 00:48:15 | |
We're at SHUX! Well, we were, and while we were there, we tricked Tom Brewster of Shut Up & Sit Down to take time away from his busy schedule to join us on stage. This episode was recorded live, and we talk about games that are in some ways, a little bit weird. Before things get odd, we talk about Dungeons, Dice & Danger, Fun Facts, Turncoats, and Flick Fleck. 03:52 - Dungeons, Dice & Danger Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||
| #245: Essen SPIEL 2022 Hype List | 29 Sep 2022 | 00:54:42 | |
It's convention season, which means we're on the way to one convention, while talking about another. Every year a lot of new games get showed off at Essen SPIEL in Germany, and these are the ones we're most excited to hear more about! Before we start messin' with Essen, we talk about Plutocracy and Finca. 01:56 - Plutocracy We're going to be at SHUX: Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||
| #244: Quick Count | 22 Sep 2022 | 00:42:22 | |
We're in and out quick and breezy, with a h-h-hot question about player counts. All things equally considered, how many people do you want at the table? Before we boot people from the game, we talk about Bitoku, San Francisco, and Caesar's Empire. 01:28 - Bitoku We're going to be at SHUX: Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||
| #243: We're on Each Other's Team | 15 Sep 2022 | 00:59:00 | |
The best thing about being part of a team is even when things go wrong, your team is there for you. And boy, did things go wrong this week ... but I'm getting ahead of myself. This week we're talking about team games! Twice! Before we make the dream work, we talk about Art Decko, Feed The Kraken, and War of the Ring: The Card Game. 02:47 - Art Decko We're going to be at SHUX: Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||
| #242: Second Time's the Charm | 08 Sep 2022 | 00:46:53 | |
Not every game makes the best first impression, but some stick in your mind enough to warrant a second try. So fittingly, the first and second best hosts are here to tell you about the games that they think deserve a revisit. Before we repeat stuff, repeat stuff, we talk about Mille Fiori, Rise of the Metro, and Turing Machine. 02:05 - Mille Fiori Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||
| #241: Fantasy Draft: BoardGameGeek 601-700 | 01 Sep 2022 | 00:56:32 | |
Okay, this end of the BGG top list starts to get weird. Regardless, we must draft. Who's going to end up with the best selection of five games from this chunk of one hundred? That's up to you - vote and you could win a $50 gift voucher! Before we pick a peck of paper products, we talk about Town 66, Akropolis, and Pampero. 02:09 - Town 66 Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||
| #240: The Pillars of Recreation | 25 Aug 2022 | 00:57:09 | |
The pillars of board gaming are games that are so influential, so ubiquitous, that they're practically the shoulders on which many other board games stand. We talk about what are commonly considered the classic pillars, and try to make a more modern list. Before we get into Greek architecture, we talk about Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon, Trailblazers, Photograph, and Ys. 02:34 - Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||
| #239: We're Back and We Brought Lots of Games | 18 Aug 2022 | 00:50:33 | |
Well, we've returned, and some of us are a little worse for wear, but if a week off doesn't get us back into gear, nothing will. Gen Con is behind us, and Mark, who sadly couldn't make the con, quizzes us about our highlights of the show. Before we cast our minds back to Indiana, we talk about Cat in the Box, Formosa Tea, and Twilight Inscription. 02:14 - Cat in the Box Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||
| #237: Where Are They Now? | 04 Aug 2022 | 00:52:01 | |
Given that we hyped up all those games last week, it's only fair that we prepare ourselves for the aftermath. We look back at some of the most famous and infamous games of yesteryear that were very highly anticipated, and wonder what became of them. Before we relive the comedown, we talk about Master Word, Living Forest, and Tidal Blades: Heroes of the Reef. 02:00 - Master Word Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||
| #336: Happy Little Accidents | 12 Jun 2025 | 00:55:25 | |
When playing games it's easy to fall into the trap of over-anaylsing turns, or questioning whether the move we made was the right one, or even allowing people to roll back whole turns - so we're asking if maybe we've been wrong this whole time, and we should just ... embrace it? Are mistakes interesting? Before we have any regrets, we talk about Apiary, Wizards Cup, and Wroth. 02:43 - Apiary Vote for the listener Top 20 board games at: Get added to the BGB community map at: Send us topic ideas at: Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||
| #236: Gen Con 2022 Preview | 28 Jul 2022 | 00:55:25 | |
Gen Con is a week away! We're headed to Indianapolis (hope to see you there!) but before we do, we're looking down the preview list to get ourselves hyped. These are our five games we're each most excited to see at the show! Before we go Indy, we talk about Vabanque, Orongo, and Blood on the Clocktower. 02:06 - Vabanque Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||
| #235: The Twin Game Showdown | 21 Jul 2022 | 00:58:07 | |
There's a phenomenon called twin films, where competing studios release very similar movies at the same time. We imagine the same idea in board game land, and highlight some of the biggest board game grudge matches - and judge which game we think came out on top. Before there can be only one, we talk about Viking See-Saw, Dandelions, Codex Naturalis, and Luna. 02:38 - Viking See-Saw Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||
| #234: It's About Family with Ambie Valdés from Board Game Blitz | 14 Jul 2022 | 00:48:19 | |
Ambie Valdés, from the excellent podcast Board Game Blitz, joins us to talk about family games, and possibly also the Fast and the Furious franchise. Ambie actually has kids, so might know a little more about this than the rest of us. Kids love Vin Diesel. Before we edutain, we talk about Savannah Park, Cryptid, and Stroganov. 04:43 - Savannah Park Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||
| #233: A Decade of Missed Games: 2010-2019 | 07 Jul 2022 | 01:04:47 | |
Well, we can't play everything, and that was probably more true ten years ago than it is now. So we thought we'd look back at the decade past, and highlight some games that we feel like we missed out on. Before we prolong our backlogs, we talk about Loot of Lima, Yosemite, and Planted: A Game of Nature & Nurture. 02:13 - Loot of Lima Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||
| #232: Transcontinental Mailbag Express | 30 Jun 2022 | 01:07:27 | |
We're spread across the world and time, so we do the thing we should never do; we put the questions to you. Yes, you! It's a mailbag episode, we're answering a trio, a trilogy, a trichopteran of your questions. Before we put in our hand and pull out a letter, we talk about Caesar!: Seize Rome in 20 Minutes!, Symphony No.9, and Arrakis: Dawn of the Fremen. 03:46 - Caesar!: Seize Rome in 20 Minutes!

| #231: Why Fight When You Can Negotiate? | 23 Jun 2022 | 00:55:25 | |
Yes, you could make the argument that every game is a negotiation game if you try hard enough, but for a lot of games it's more integral to the design. We look at games that we think integrate negotiation mechanics especially well, and ask how much is too much (or too little) when it comes to negotiation. Before we compromise, we talk about Septima, and Kremlin. 02:12 - Septima Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||
| #230: Worth the Weight | 16 Jun 2022 | 00:57:58 | |
While we tend to enjoy games across the whole spectrum, there's something particular about sinking your teeth into a really heavy game. But it's not always an easy prospect; conditions have to be just right. So what makes a heavy game worth it? Before things get heavy, we talk about Barony, Bausack, Whitehall Mystery, and Dead Reckoning. 02:14 - Barony Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||
| #229: The Positives of Being Negative | 09 Jun 2022 | 01:04:15 | |
There's a lot of discourse lately about the pros and cons of negative board game coverage, and so of course we thought we ought to weigh in. Is there value in negative criticism versus positive, or should there be a balance between the two? Before we take the good with the bad, we talk about Homeworlds, Ave Caesar, and Founders of Teotihuacan. 01:42 - Homeworlds Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||
| #228: Bob Is Beautiful | 02 Jun 2022 | 01:21:47 | |
It's easy to get lost in mechanical discussions of games, and forget to appreciate them as physical creations. There can be beauty in games, and we're here to get to the heart of it the only way we know, the one on one fight to the death that we call BGBBOB. Before we get skin deep, we talk about First Empires, Mille Fiori, and Foundations of Rome. 01:44 - First Empires Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||
| #227: Board Games: The Sequel: Part II: Electric Boogaloo | 26 May 2022 | 00:57:04 | |
It doesn't happen as much as it does in other industries, but every so often the people at the top demand serialization. We're talking about sequels in board games, when they work, when they (super) don't, and what we'd like to see get the treatment. Before we get franchised, we talk about Next Station: London, Dawn of the Zeds (Third Edition), and Azul: Queen's Garden. 01:23 - Next Station: London Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||
| #335: A Cole New Wehrle | 29 May 2025 | 01:08:13 | |
A dazzling place you never knew ... until now that is! We're diving deep on beloved designer Cole Wehrle in another designer spotlight. We dig back into his Roots, and explore the many Arcs that led to his Oath to revolutionize thematic board games. Before our traffic gets infamous, we talk about Toy Battle, Subjective, and Wild Tiled West. 03:43 - Toy Battle Vote for the listener Top 20 board games at: Get added to the BGB community map at: Send us topic ideas at: Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||
| #226: Metapod | 19 May 2022 | 01:06:04 | |
Metagaming is all about the game that exists within (and without) the game - it's everything that's not written in the rules. Whether that's something that emerges at your table, or in the community at large, it can be a big part of the social experience, and we're all for it. Before we get meta, we talk about Rum & Pirates, Box One, Shamans, and Crescent Moon. 05:00 - Rum & Pirates Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||
| #225: Itchy, Tasty | 12 May 2022 | 00:54:41 | |
With the middle of the year rapidly approaching, we've acquired our fair share of games that we're really itching to play. We talk about what's recently made its way into our collections that we just can't wait to get to the table. Before we break out the back scratchers, we talk about Ivanhoe, Freshwater Fly, Vindication, and Cryptid: Urban Legends. 02:23 - Ivanhoe Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||

The Golden Geek results are in for 2021, and to avoid burying the lede ... we won! We're over the moon, naturally, but we couldn't have done it without you. We celebrate by giving our takes on the rest of the awards, how we voted, and what we think about the other categories. Before we bathe in our glory, we talk about Aristocracy, Senators, and Ark Nova. 06:08 - Aristocracy Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||
| #223: Ye Olden Games with Mark Bigney from So Very Wrong About Games | 28 Apr 2022 | 01:18:48 | |
It's easy to get caught up in the cult of the new, but there are so many amazing games that came out before we were even in the hobby. Mark Bigney of So Very Wrong About Games joins us to look at the games we love from yesteryear, and other older games we really ought to play. And stick around for even more special appearances after the show! Before we go back in time, we talk about Sobek: 2 Players, Phantom Leader Deluxe, and Terraforming Mars: Ares Expedition. 04:30 - Sobek: 2 Players Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||
| #222: Are You the Gatekeeper? | 21 Apr 2022 | 00:49:18 | |
There are many ways that we can accidentally contribute to gatekeeping in the hobby - pushing those who want to embrace it away. Whether it's to those outside, or even, bizarrely, to those already in, we break down the subtle (and unsubtle) ways we do it, whether or not we mean to. Before we find the keymaster, we talk about San Marco, Gloomhaven: Jaws of the Lion, and Ghosts of Christmas. 02:28 - San Marco Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||
| #221: P-P-P-Party Questions | 14 Apr 2022 | 00:47:47 | |
It doesn't quite work the same, but what do you expect when Neilan's not present? Speaking of presents, it's Mark's birthday so the rest of the crew celebrate with a parade of (don't call them hot) questions, where they invent expansions, and save the planet. Before we get older, we talk about Time Barons, and The Key: Sabotage at Lucky Llama Land. 03:57 - Time Barons Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||

| #219: A Perfect Ten | 31 Mar 2022 | 00:45:47 | |
Does the perfect game exist? Probably not, but is that even the point? This week we discuss the elusive 10/10 rating, whether it makes sense to apply it, and what that means for rating games in general. Before we realize pobody's nerfect, we talk about Mind MGMT: The Psychic Espionage "Game.", Manila, and Picture Perfect. 02:11 - Mind MGMT: The Psychic Espionage "Game."

Wow, hundreds of you sent in your favourite games, and it was absolute chaos. But we got all the data together, cleaned up the typos, and crunched the numbers via a super secret algorithm, and here we are, your favourite games of all-time! For this year, at least.

| #217: We Got Rid of a Bunch of Games! | 17 Mar 2022 | 00:55:18 | |
There is a joy as equal in receiving a game, as moving it onto another person to enjoy. Especially, if you're Mark, when there's cash involved. We reflect on the many games that got left behind recently. Before we purge, we talk about Imperial Steam, Circus Flohcati, and Dogs of War. 02:33 - Circus Flohcati Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||
| #334: Nothing's Done It Better | 15 May 2025 | 00:51:32 | |
Well, we finally did it. We played CATAN, and it was ... good! And then we started wondering, is there anything that's done quite the same thing that that game is doing? And then that got us wondering how many games there are like that, where it's genuinely hard to say that nothing has done it better since. And then that got us wondering if, instead of all this wondering, we should record a podcast episode. Before we wander, we talk about Box Two, Catan: Cities & Knights, and An Infamous Traffic. 02:47 - Box Two Get added to the BGB community map at: Send us topic ideas at: Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||

We're on the way to Dice Tower West, so we're keeping this one easy breezy with just a hot question. How many games on your shelf do you think you could teach without looking at the rulebook?

Return of the Bob! If you don't know what a BGBBOB, boy you've missed out. Twelve games enter, and, well, they all exit, but only once they've been arranged in the appropriate order via a series of one on one fights. And fights are doubly appropriate this week, because we're battling it out in search of the best combat systems. Before we wish for peace, we talk about 7 Wonders: Architects, Kokopelli, and Canopy. 03:18 - 7 Wonders: Architects Give us feedback: Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||
| #213: Approach Without Caution | 17 Feb 2022 | 00:55:47 | |
Approachability and accessibility are incredibly important to a wide swathe of gamers, but for those experienced in the hobby, it can often get overlooked. We investigate how games can aid those both in and especially outside the hobby to be more immediately appealing. Before we have a beer with him, we talk about Shinkansen: Zero Kei, Project L, and Boonlake. 01:32 - Shinkansen: Zero Kei Give us feedback: Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||

It's the triumphant return of the terrific trio - you know exactly who we mean - to talk about games where one of us would have to be left out. That's right, it's two players only at this table, and we're talking about our favourite games that fit the bill, and why we love them. Before we one-three-nine-take-two, we talk about Undaunted: Normandy, Fields of Arle, and That Time You Killed Me. 02:12 - Undaunted: Normandy Check out our wiki at: Join the discussion at: Join our Facebook group at: Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: | |||

Few things feel better than those moments in board games that make you feel powerful. Whether it's playing the perfect card, pulling off a perfectly executed turn, or splashing down that giant mini, we look at some of our favourite power plays in board games.
