Campbell Desousa
Campbell is the dude on the podcast who prefaces all his commentary with, 'Here's the thing'.
He is responsible for the majority of the tangential and banal conversation on our otherwise thoughtful podcast, but this is a bio and not an apology, so.

Rob Pearson
Past guest turned host, Rob lives in Iowa with his wife Amy and son Beau. He also has 3 older step daughters that are grown and out of the house.
Rob started out loving more thematic and hidden role games and has grown to also really enjoy complex Euros as well. Theme is still number one and nice looking art and components don't hurt either.
Podcast Reviews
The best boardgame podcast
Informative. Entertaining. Structured enough that it doesn’t ramble, spontaneous enough that it’s never quite the same. I’ve bought several games off of their reviews and they’ve been spot on with the pros and cons (and prawns).

Great podcast
Love the banter and the thoughtful discussion about the games. Also really like that the podcast’s approach spotlights some older games that are often overlooked.
Two Thumbs Up
If I had more thumbs, I’d give more thumbs up. I’m not super into board games, but this podcast makes me want to be. The guys have good chemistry together and are clearly well-versed in what they love.
