Episode 286: Special Guests - Thinker Themer! plus, Feierabend, Pixies, Weimar: The Fight for Democracy

The Board Game BBQ Podcast

This week Dana and Def welcome back two of our favourite Australian content creators: Thinker Themer. Amy and Maggie fill us in on what they've been up to since they were last on the show, share how their tastes have evolved, and also their views on the changing landscape of boardgmaing over the past few years.

In Sizzling Games, Amy has been avoiding work, Maggie has been off with the pixies, and Def and Dana have been battling for democracy. There's also the Question of the Pod, Swear an Oath, and all of the usual shenanigans you've come to expect from the Board Game BBQ Podcast.

New Question of the Pod: What board game has educated you on a particular topic?
