Shut Up & Sit Down

But this show is full of great humour and insight. I really like looking through the back episodes. There are in-depth conversations about game designs—not just bird games, but also TTRPGs, and also unusual games like water gun assasination.

I love listening to this podcast - the diversity in the board game preferences of the hosts is so wonderful. They are witty and funny and clever and respectful of eachother and it is a joy to listen to them each week.

TLDR: If you like podcasts with funny, well-spoken, heartfelt individuals, sharing laughs and opinions over a thing that we can all use a little more of - fun! - then, have a listen to this podcast. Their You Tube channel is my absolute favourite channel to watch and it brought me here, and I now I love this too. More people need Quinns, Matt, Ava and Tom in their lives. — I absolutely love Shut Up

I enjoy and recommend the Shut Up & Sit Down podcast. The podcast members are engaging, witty, and — perhaps most importantly — don’t take themselves too seriously. I find that the podcast strikes the right balance of highlighting what the contributors found enjoyable about a particular game, as well as pointing out what wasn’t quite so good. I particularly appreciate that the recommendations are made with the understanding that most listeners are on a budget, both from a financial and a time management perspective. During a game review a reviewer might well recommend an older game instead, if, in their opinion, that game is a better experience. Expansions, in particular, need to prove their worth, otherwise the verdict may be to buy a different game instead. While the language used is family friendly, the program doesn’t shy away from highlighting any ethical considerations that a particular game might raise. I would also note that the podcasters seem to actually enjoy playing board games. The podcast merits, I believe, a 5-star rating for a program well made.
