Season 17, Episode 10 – BGGCon and The Hobbit: There and Back Again
Welcome to another episode of The Board Boys Podcast! This time around we are live from BGGCon and introducing a couple of new voices with a surprise guest swap in the middle of the episode! We talk about a slew of new hotness played at the convention and we do a main review of The Hobbit: There and Back Again from Office Dog and Reiner Knizia! Also on this episode, Jeremy has a hard time with slide puzzles we stumble over some words, is it Bouba or is it a Kiki? We talk about a really fun BB Dave throwback story and why can’t Rob pronounce “boing”? As always we hope you like Board Games!
