Boards & Swords
Summary: Have you ever thought: Tabletop gaming podcasts just aren't cringe worthy enough? Have you ever made terrible jokes like "If Noah found a pig murdered, would it be an Ark-ham Horror?" Then you should check out Boards & Swords, the podcast featuring Bad Jokes, Good Folks, and Tabletop games. Every other week, Chris and Philip show what happens when you let Dad Jokes get dangerously close to tabletop games.

Lordy lordy, Chris played 40….K that is. Warhammer 40k specifically. Plus, People are shelling out for TCGs still, Asmodee is bringing the hammer to counterfeits, and speaking of Warhammer - there’s going to be a subscription for Warhammer stuff?
There’s ONE more FFG announcement to talk about, a joke about “New Orleans” somewhere, and Chris played a game from 2018??? GASP! Oh and more Power Rangers stuff is coming.
If you are like Chris and love FFG, you are gonna like the news this week, as there were a LOT of announcements. Chris also got in a Gametopper and talks about Jetpack Joyride….the board game?
People are going crazy for Pokemon cards, everyone’s bailing out of Gen Con, and Chris played a bunch of board games! Surely the end times are upon us! (and don’t call me Shirley)
When a company doesn't put out enough for a popular game, what's a community to do? Make their own content! Chris & Philip take a look at what's poppin in the board game world for user-created content. Plus, all the news and banter that you usually come to expect.
It’s been a month, so Chris & Philip recap some recent news and talk about some acquisitions that have come in. Because if you can’t play board games, the next best thing to do is buy them right? (Probably not)
Schedules didn’t align for an episode, so here’s a sneak peek at what you could get on the Boards & Swords Patreon feed, the before and after episode chat from episode 170.
Shaun from All the Bits, a podcast talking about board game components joins Chris & Philip to goof around and talk about board games!
Chris’ Grandmother passed a couple of weeks ago, and she was a big reason why he ended up being the big nerd he am, so this episode is dedicated to her. And what an episode - Chris and Philip have end game content in their respective games (WoW & Destiny 2), Chris has bought a lot of board games, and Asmodee acquired more stuff!
Chris talks about one of the new EXIT games, Philip is end gaming in Destiny 2, L5R is over and Chris & Philip both talk about a couple of Black board game creators to celebrate Black History Month! Plus, they finish up the episode rapid fire answering a few questions.
Sorry for the absence recently - Philip hurt his back and Chris decided that was a good time to start playing World of Warcraft again. But, they’ve also got some listener questions such as: What famous people would you want to play board games with?
Welcome to the future….by listening to this podcast from the past! Our last episode that was recorded in 2020, Chris & Philip talk about post-Christmas gaming, Chris got to try out Catan Starfarers, and someone asked what our favorite board gaming adjacent memory was. All that and much more!
It’s time to dddddd…..do a podcast! The year is winding down, but Chris & Philip have some actual reviews to finish up the year with. They take a look at the Root app from Leder Games and Roll for the Galaxy from Rio Grande Games. Plus, some news and questions from the community!
This is definitely not a podcast where Chris & Philip have Eric Yurko from What’s Eric Playing on to hang out with them and talk about DuckTales, Mario Lopez as the KFC Colonel….oh and some board games as well.
Chris, Collin, Cindy, & Philip, along with Calvin Wong, present the first of their actual play RPG series “Tangled in the Slipstring”, where they play as cats in a custom futuristic setting.
