Brawling Brothers Boardgaming Podcast

The Brawling Brothers Boardgaming Podcast is a biweekly podcast that focuses on board games, card games and RPGs. The original Brawlers (Josh and Brandon) are 2 friends who like very different types of games. The show focuses on these differing preferences and (hopeless) attempts to sway each other's opinion. Each show includes light, friendly banter, a game review (in print), a combative segment called "Brawling and Boardgaming", a check in on BGG's "Hotness" and a brief discussion of a topic that has importance to us... Well, one of us, at least. While the "Brawling and Boardgaming" can get a bit heated at times, Josh and Brandon play games for the same reason: SOCIAL INTERACTION. The Brawlers love of meeting new people, playing games with old friends and interact with gamers all around the world is the simple reason that Brawling Brothers was founded. Join us as we attempt to spread our influence throughout the gaming community, encouraging people to form gaming groups, organize events, and evaluate just how great (OR NOT) those old games that Josh loves really are. Let's hope we can agree to disagree before a major fight breaks out!

Recorded from War Room Studios in Albuquerque, NM : 6-13-16

This episode brought to you by BoardgameTables.com and Meeple Realty - Josh unveils his revolutionary idea for "3d ENRICHING EXPERIENCES" followed by his confessions about having no clue how to use modern technology.  We bust into some excellent discussion involving karaoke, followed closely by a great cheap champagne story (what a pairing!).  Brandon falls victim to his love for Churros and falls off the diet bandwagon for a day.  HeavyCon, a small convention experience by Heavy Cardboard, dominates majority of our discussion.  Brandon talks about his experience with heavy games at the convention, including Arkwright by Capstone Games, Kanban from Stronghold Games and Trickerion (published by APE Games). The show wraps up with a lengthy Jon Gilmour interview.  Listen in and hear about the Dead of Winter development process, get an inside scoop on the upcoming expansion; Dead of Winter: Long Night and hear about his newest project Heroes and Tricks (currently on Kickstarter)
