One of the best parts of traveling alone is taking yourself out to dinner… and taking time for dessert.

This week’s podcast episode features Jason Walonoski, who is working on multiple designs set in Ancient Greece. youtu.be/fz6FWwNIWQw

The Romans also loved games! (Checking out the Römisch-Germanisches Museum in Cologne!)

Now that’s a dinner. (Schnitzel, frites, and a big-ass beer.)

@colewehrle.bsky.social and I chatted about the reading material behind An Infamous Traffic in the latest episode of Board & Book! @wehrlegig.games youtu.be/zm3cz0U8ezg

When your board game can cheer for itself! (Having a blast at Essen.)

This week's podcast is all about @thegamecrafter.bsky.social! youtu.be/YXgei83ltrg?...

Making my Essen packing list and keeping it tight because I need to bring back 2 key things: - A wheel of Lord of the Hundreds cheese - Chocolate from Cologne Priorities!

Learning Union Stockyards. What a good game!

I guess I won’t get any Kirkland on the next Costo run…

Oh no, Kelly Clarkson just came into the office and demanded to buy our giant Eyrie Dynasties meeple and when I told her it wasn't for sale she just left but I could see her out in her car thumbtyping something and geez louise she did NOT look happy.

Hey Friends, @beyondsolitaire.bsky.social dropped her latest podcast and youtube talking with me about Designing Historical Games www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5cx.... It's always a great time talking with Liz (thanks again!) Podcast beyondsolitaire.buzzsprout.com

It's the most wonderful time of the year: People's Choice Top 200 voting in the 1 Player Guild on BGG! Celebrate solo games with us, they are the best! boardgamegeek.com/thread/37759...

“The fact that we’re losing makes me feel happy.” - @ryanschneider.bsky.social during an allegedly cooperative game.

It's October, we've had some crisp mornings, I made an absolutely killer beef and vegetable soup tonight--only for the weather to betray me! We had a high of 81 today, I didn't come to MN for this.

In other words, a meet poot. 😇

This video feels a lot like an intense game of Kart! 🙃 Less than 24 hours left to back, get in there! bit.ly/KartOnKS

I had a blast podcasting with @stickydoodler.bsky.social this week! Check out our discussion of game design, components you can destroy, and his upcoming PAXU event about unpublishable games! youtu.be/v2XRqXOOpEs?...

9 years ago, I made a life-changing decision...

We're big fans of local Saint Paul band Alligator Orchestra. After hearing songs they wrote about Root, we commissioned them to record a Kart theme song. They came back with "Don't Look Down!", two minutes of raucous pop-punk that's perfect for Kart's reckless downhill races.

With just seven days left for the Kart Kickstarter campaign, we partnered with The Mind Of Guy to tell you a little more about our newest downhill racing game! bit.ly/KartOnKS

For the 250th episode of the podcast, @edbeach23.bsky.social came on to chat about historical board game design, designing for series, and his work on Civ. Also, if you want to know who the best Here I Stand player in the world is... this episode reveals all. youtu.be/9PyhJ7FGxEw?...

I will never get over the traffic cone wizard hat. 🥰

This week's podcast interview with @ludoliminal.bsky.social was a delight to record, and hopefully a delight to listen to! youtu.be/6uUE-x43m1A?...

It's actual hoodie weather today and I feel alive again for the first time in months.

Have the car in for an oil change, and took Highway 61 here. On the way back, it’ll be…

One of my favorite annual traditions: The Top Solo Historical Games survey results! Thanks to @armchairdragoons.bsky.social for doing this with me. :) boardgamegeek.com/geeklist/384...

Vast test! @patrickleder.bsky.social

I am so charmed by the video for Kart. I’ve known the game is a banger for some time, but it’s also insanely cute. :)

KART IS LIVE. It has been an absolute pleasure to see this game come together, and I am even more excited to share it with all of you. bit.ly/KartOnKS

I thought my dad loved me but I guess I was wrong. (Playing Not So Neighborly.) @fambamgames.bsky.social

Taught my family this game just to get my ass beat. (Dnup)

In this episode of Board & Book, @akarsb.bsky.social talks about the research behind Chalice of Poison, his upcoming game from @gmtgames.bsky.social. youtu.be/IKM-ySNruEo

Hello from this humpback whale who hung out with us for a bit near Juneau!

A little early morning fun. Working on the counter sheet for Throw Down That Flag. Co-designed with @beyondsolitaire.bsky.social for the @sdhistcon.bsky.social Night Market on 7 November. It will be printed by Blue Panther.

This week on the pod, Alita Robertson discusses her upcoming game, Kart! It goes to crowdfunding on Sept 15 through @leder.games. youtu.be/GkNxPIMaESs it

My dissertation got translated into Arabic for use at the White Monastery. I am just glad someone wants to read it. 😅

I love teachers.

This week on the pod, I chatted with Mark Diaz Truman of @magpiegames.bsky.social about RPG design, how it differs from board game design, and what each type of game is trying to do for players. youtu.be/DRanP0C8IBw
