In this geeklist I am attempting to capture some information on podcasts that center around the boardgame hobby. I am doing this mainly for my myself, but hopefully others in the BGG community will find the information helpful.

Podcast is listed with the favorite game of the host(s).
The podcasts are in order of their start date.
The host(s) and their BGG IDs are listed.
A brief synopsis is provided, but please check out the podcast website for more info.
Website and the podcast feed is provided.

cool Feel free to make any comments about the podcasts listed, but try to keep the comments generally positive, remember a LOT of work goes into making these and we pay nothing to listen (or watch).

ninja I will attempt to keep this GeekList up to date if and when any new boardgaming podcasts pop up. Feel free to geekmail me with podcasts that I have missed or if I have incorrect information.

goo Disclaimer, I have not listened to every podcast in this list.

Please give a thumbs up to the podcasts in this list you have listened to and want to recommend.

Is Joe still in limbo right now? Last I heard on TDT, he was in Canada getting a church set up and had no time to go and do the Wargame podcast that he was hoping to do.

Oh, and yes, TDT is entertaining to listen to, and not just for the contests.

I concur with the last two reviews, this show is on the slide, 'overproduced' is an understatement, and the skits/segments just aren't very funny/interesting

I really enjoy this one. VERY family friendly and the two person discussion format for the majority of the show works well.

I for one enjoy the little audio clips interspersed throught the episodes. I think it would be fun to download just those short clips just to have fun with.

Keep up the good work!

Update note: This used to be a weekly podcast - now is a biweekly podcast.

Thanks for the kind words....

I am NOT in Canada and am now a cop in lower Michigan... a cop fits my personality better then a preacher!

The show is still great and I think Sam is very articulate.

I have put out some video game reviews at You-tube but have been busy at work lately, a couple of big cases have swamped me. I am open to suggestions for my next videocast.

One of my favorites; Paul's a pro. However, his show is pretty role playing heavy. At least it seems that way to me sometimes. Even so, I'm not a roleplayer these days but I enjoy listening to Paul talk about them. I think that says something about how good a show Paul puts on.

They really stepped it up a notch when they broke it up into three seperate podcasts. They've got better sound and better editing. I think they went to GenCon and came back energized to do a better podcast.

This show is hit and miss. The interview show Inside Track is very good, they have some pretty good guests and the interviews flow quite well.

The Kings court however is not nearly as interesting.

Technically Tigris and Euphrates is listed as my #1 -- but it's not really appropriate to the podcast. At least, not yet. Time is on my side.

But besides, Aldie and Derk already got it.

This is becoming my favorite podcast. I've recently become much more interested in wargames and I think this show has a lot to do with it. I really enjoyed the recent interviews with game designers that they've featured on the show. They also definitely have the best theme music out of all the podcasts I've listened to.

Yes, I completely agree. I really liked the discussion with the designers of Europe Engulfed and TNW; I'd already had TNW 2.0 on P500, but I'm seriously considering EE for the P500 as well.

I thoroughly enjoy P2P, as well as The Dice Tower and Dragon's Landing (for RPGs). Considering my three interests in gaming (Euros, Wargames and RPGs), those three pretty much have me covered.

Big thumbs up for these guys. Joe Steadman got me back into wargaming after a long hiatus. With his departure from the Podcasting world these guys are the sole audio link to my favorite pasttime. I hope they are able to keep it going when real life interferes.

Just two things to add:

You can get to the site by going to www.garrettsgames.com

AND

As a subset of GG&G we've been recording episodes of The Boardgame Roundtable, the last of which includes commentary from Scott Alden (Aldie) and Mark Jackson on The Golden Geek Awards!

This is my personal favorite. I've listened to others casts, but these two guys working together just seem to really have a good chemistry. The format is also more attuned to what I want to know.

Fantastic podcast, shakespearean in it's prose. The presenter is the Brad Pitt of gaming.

I have no link to this show, except I present it.

Noisemaker's Podcast at www.noisemaker.libsyn.com

Contact with the Enemy

the Noise Before Defeat

I'm the host of Noisemaker, and Contact with the Enemy and the Noise Before Defeat are basically like Point 2 Point. But they're different enough, and they're great. Thanks for the list.

The guys at the d6generation are a class act. Info, skits and interviews. At over 3 hours a podcast and with over 80 podcast it's hard to beat the value. They love miniature games, but give lots of air time to board, card and even rpg games. Check them out!
