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 : 5-24-16

This episode brought to you by BoardgameTables.com and Meeple Realty – Another leather couch session begins in War Room Studio B as the guys fill everyone in on their International Tabletop Day experience (better late than never!) and congratulate the party hosts on welcoming a new gamer into the world!  Brandon and Josh meet a (nother) local podcaster and decide that Albuqueque has become a hotbed for podcast creation. Josh covers the old (but not so crusty) Warrior Knights during his “THEN” segment, both guys get a chance to play a grail game and talk about it during “NOW” and discuss some smoking hot Kickstarter projects in “TOMORROW”.  The investigation continues into the strange transmission recieved during Episode 26 from “Mister M” – A few new details have been discovered and are shared with the listeners, though it’s clear that help will be needed to figure out what is going on.  Broom Service has monopolized the gaming nights of the Brawling Brothers for the last few weeks and they tell you what they think in their Broom Service review.  The guys finish up the episode by taking Questions from a Hat – Intern Lexi makes a special extended appearance and the Brawling Brothers officially envision the unofficial BrawlCon.

Brandon is a bit under the weather and... Wait... What?! Straight from TRUMPSEN, #TheDonald endorses our show and ITS HUGEEE!  We discuss our recent travels, some untouchable food in the amazing town of NOLA.  Brandon confesses he'd rather play a solo game than sit at a bar. Our "What Did We Play?" list is small thanks to Josh having a minor house emergency.   Brandon and Josh vow to hold a 2 player lock-in, and we need a churro sponsor! Our trip to BGG.con is coming up and we are JUST NOW planning the trip (no script folks, no script!).  We contemplate hijacking a balloon to get to Essen - Next year? Next year!  In the meantime we check in our on favorite Essen releases. We don't typically do Kickstarter previews, but World's Fair 1893 deserved our attention (and yours too!).  Lastly we discuss RPG's and their place in the Boardgaming world.  Are Legacy Boardgames the new RPG? We close out the show with some excellent "flavor" that Josh created years ago for his Descent campaign.

 

 

Episode Highlights Include:

#TheDonald buys Essen - Brandon is crazy about NOLA - Josh HATES Ham.. Because, ewww! - What the hell is Fido?! - Josh enjoyed a Zombie Movie?!? WHAAA? - Josh is AWFUL at Brandon impersonations - Through the Ages - Space Hulk, Ikuza - Carcassone - Lord of the Rings: The Confrontation - 2 Player Lock-in?!

Brawling Brothers Boardgaming Podcast - Episode 12 - Light Games Sunday: Noir Black Box Review

Recorded from War Room Studios in Albuquerque, NM :  9-22-15

Our lack of food stories is truly disturbing, but we spice things up with some epic impersonations.  We give a nod to our friends over at Print & Play Games  and discuss our lan party featuring many sweaty dudes stuffed into a small space.  Strangely our "What Did We Play" section is filled with light games ranging from Hanabi to Cosmic Encounter and we briefly discuss each of them.  Our Noir Black Box Review is sure to tickle the AD of listeners who like "puzzly games" (we just made that up). A very special message from the President of the United States (cough) with a ringing endorsement of Campaign Trail. And we wrap up the show with a feature segment that focuses on Experiences OUTSIDE of a game that impacts your long standing opinion on a game.

Episode Highlights include:

Nixon visits War Room Studio B - Dwarfy had an accident and we remembered to tell you about it - Print & Play Games - Dings A PLENTY! - Discussion on Light Game Sunday - Review of Noir: Black Box Edition - A polite request for iTunes Reviews - An epic promo for the sponsor of this episode, Campaign Trail - Events outside the game that effect our longstanding opinion of that game
