Episode 2: The one about our Top 10 Games (in no particular order)

In our second episode, we kick off our series of Top 10s by going through each of our Top 10 tabletop games of all time ... in no particular order. Rather than spending time agonizing over which of these games is better than which of these other games, we want to simply celebrate 10 games (each) that we just love, and are always in the mood to play!

Episode 1: The one about us and our Gen Con recap

Welcome to The Boarding Party, a bi-weekly podcast about board games, card games, and all things tabletop.

We're your hosts, Jeremiah DeBenedetto and Jeff Lozito and we're thrilled to have you join us. In our podcast, we will have discussions about news, trends, and anything else that strikes our fancy in the world of tabletop gaming. In addition to those discussions, we will also talk about how games play specifically with 2 players, and do a series of Top 10s (always in no particular order).

For our first Podcast, we give you a brief introduction to us and our gaming journeys, and a Gen Con recap ... what we loved, what we didn't love, and what we learned.

Thanks for listening!
