Rahdo Talks Through

In addition to the regular show, we dove deep into ruel's recent plumbing problems, as well as my podiatry problems! Plus a new Ruel Ranks, top3 and a lot of Q&A catchup!

It's a ding & dent big savings-centric episode this month for the games we'd buy right now! :)

On Aug 16th, I live streamed recording a portion of the latest Rahdo Talks Through podcast and a new episode of crowd sorcery. But in addition to that I did a big game unboxing and a fair bit of chitchat with the crowd, and this audio file is all of that extra chitchat! :)

Only 5 new games to talk about closing in the next few weeks on crowdfunding platforms, which is ironic as this is episode 5 of Crowd Sorcery, the audio edition! :)

Hey everybody, this week Ruel and I had some fun live streaming Citytrip Brugge for an hour, but we also spent an hour or so chatting, talking Gencon, behind the scenes stuff, etc. So I figured I'd take just those bits (not the runthrough and final thoughts) and post them on the podcast channel! :)

Okay, a new video (the first episode of a new series for the channel) just went up on Youtube, so here it is in audio form! Take it away Grant! :)

hey everybody, over 26 games are talked about in this month's roundup, and here's the audio file! :)

9 Games coming to a close on crowdfunding platforms in the next 2 weeks that I think are of note, and here's the audio file where I talk about 'em! :)

Just a quick little top10 (and then a second top10) to call out the best of the best at Genon 2022 :)

Hey everybody, here's an extra hour or so of chatchat that was recorded while I was streaming the podcast recording for RTT episode 86 :)

In addition to the top10 list, we have (for me) a very surprising double ruel ranks and a very fun this-or-that, and I tell a tale of hymenoptera horror!

I love ruel's picks in this month's R&R... i went cult-of-the-new, and he picks some "should be" modern classics! :)
