Match of the Century
For our opening move of 2024, we're moving our new episode to T2 (Tuesday the 2nd). That's right, we're covering a game that is chess-adjacent! Capstone Games' new Match of the Century is an entry in their 2-player card-driven historical games, this time dealing with the 1972 World Championship chess match between Bobby Fischer and Boris Spassky. It's a story full of fascinating tidbits of real occurrences, but does it make for the inspiration of a good game? Hit play to find out!

May the Force....be....uhhh...okay, I don't remember how the quote goes. PSYCHE! You know Andrew and I love Star Wars. So what better 2-player-boardgame-only podcast to review Fantasy Flight's newest Star Wars dueling card game? Don't answer that.
We also talk with Nick Mielke of Around the Galaxy and the Streaming Star Wars (SSW) Network about George Lucas' little freaks!

Customer Reviews
I must eliminate all of my friends.. but one!
I just stumbled across this podcast, and after a few episodes in, I am hooked. The silliness in each episode is great. BGG reviewers are properly dismantled for leave such terrible reviews of games. How in the world would you expect Carcassone tiles to line up while playing on a fence!?
My headphone acquaintances
What are podcasts if not pretend friends that only talk at you? In this case, pretend _acquaintances_ that only talk at you.
But who knows? If they call it quits when they wind up playing Time Barons, maybe I can audition to be a Realfriend™️ But until then, headphone acquaintances is just fine.
If Norm McDonald had a board game podcast...
...it would be pretty great, right? If you think so, you’ll love this show.
