The Board Game BBQ Podcast

Adrian, Dan, and Mitch masterfully meander through an awesome array of amazing adventures. They delightfully discourse on the daring dragon domain of Wyrmspan, boldly brave the bewildering battlements of 7th Citadel, and skillfully scrutinize the salty shores of Salton Sea. But that's not all - these bodacious board game bros courageously confront the cruel crucible of Cruel Necessity and dramatically deliberate the matchless majesty of Match of the Century. It's a pun-packed, paradoxically playful podcast packed with passionate perspectives on these preeminent play pursuits. Prepare to be promptly and powerfully propelled into pure paroxysms of tabletop euphoria!

We also recap last week's Question of the Pod: Which board game would make the most interesting movie or TV show? Thanks to everyone who contributed and shared their experiences with us on Discord and the Facebook Community.

And as always, we Swear an Oath.

Question of the Pod: What makes an RPG game and RPG game?
