The Board Game BBQ Podcast Board Game BBQ

Conor, Def, and Joe jostle jovially about their latest gaming escapades.
First up, Joe regales us with his rendezvous in the realm of Rebirth, Reiner Knizia’s latest offering which is still taking late pledges on Kickstarter. Def delves into the daring deeds of Pendragon, brace yourselves for battles, betrayals, and bountiful banter as he recounts his quest for the coveted crown, and Conor casts his comedic contortions on Mythic Mischief, a game that is very chess like, or is it cheff like? So, settle in, my merry gamers, and let the playful puns flow freely! It's sure to be another rollicking romp through the realm of tabletop tomfoolery.
All that, plus the Question of the Pod, Swear An Oath, and the usual shenanigans you've come to expect from the Board Game BBQ.
 
We also recap last week's Question of the Pod: What’s your favourite convention game? 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’s your preferred way of learning a board game?

This week Lauren and Joe are joined by special guest Emily Roser from Shut Up & Sit Down and Emily and Things. We hear all about her journey into the board game space and her unique approach to game reviews. She also gives us insight into her identity as a trans woman in the board game community in the wake of joining SU&SD. We are so appreciative of her grace and candour. Then we dive into all the games we've been playing. Joe runs through the heap of games from his recent Brisbane trip. Emily talks about the best of the Oink series, including a new game for Lauren to use in therapy. After that we've got the regularly scheduled Question of the Pod, and we attempt to fulfil some of our oaths.New Question of the Pod: What is your favourite piece of board game related triviaTimestamps:Interview with Emily (0:01:11)Games we've been playing(0:42:19)Question of the Pod Recap (1:11:30)Swear An Oath (1:15:55)PlayCon is coming in 2024.
