We are back Ep. 6
Well after a little hiatus we are back with two new reviews of Dancing Eggs and The Quest for El Dorado. We also talk about a Game Day we hosted at the local Library and the up coming Great Plains Game Fest.
The Cardboard Carnival
Step right up to The Cardboard Carnival, a weekly audio adventure hosted by father-daughter duo Adam and Annabella Giddings. This isn't a formal review show, but a lively conversation from the family game table. Each episode, they unpack two different board games, sharing their unique perspectives-one from a seasoned player and the other through the fresh, often surprising eyes of a younger enthusiast. You'll hear the genuine reactions, the strategic debates, and the laughter that comes from their shared adventures in the world of boardgames. The podcast captures the heart of the hobby: the connection, the discovery of new favorites, and the simple joy of unplugging with a box full of cardboard and rules. It’s a personal invitation to listen in on their journey, offering both thoughtful insights and a contagious enthusiasm that might just inspire your next game night. Tune in for honest talk about what makes a game click or falter, all wrapped in the warm, unscripted dynamic of a family who loves to play.
