Episode 130: Nice and squidgy
2026/08/17
Guess who just got back today?
Them wild-eyed boys that'd been away
Haven't changed, hadn't much to say
But, man, I still think them cats are crazy
They were askin' if you were around
How you was, where you could be found
Told them you were livin' downtown
Drivin' all the old men crazy
Episode 129: We were wrong, this is the worst one
2026/06/17
Does anyone even read the podcast descriptions these days? Especially on a show as sporadic as ours?
Here for your delight and delectation is our latest episode. Get it while it's hot.
Episode 128: Our worst one yet.
2026/04/27
Could this be the most low effort podcast we've ever recorded?
I'm not sure, as I haven't even listened to it to edit it.
Is it also a epsiode where we shamelessly ask for your vote for the Golden Geek Award - even though we blatently do not deserve it in the slightest?
Yes. Yes it is.
Vote here.

Episode 127: Road trips and bull sharks
2026/03/24
Let 'em say we're crazy, I don't care 'bout that
Put your hand in my hand, baby, don't ever look back
Let the world around us just fall apart
Baby, we can make it if we're heart to heart
And we can build this dream together
Standing strong forever
Nothing's gonna stop us now
And if this world runs out of gamers
We'll still have each other
Nothing's gonna stop us
Nothing's gonna stop us now

Episode 117: One for the surviving bacteria
2025/01/20
All right stop, collaborate and listen
Dan and Mike are back with the brand-new invention
Something, grabs a hold of us tightly
Flow like a harpoon daily and nightly
Will it ever stop? Yo, we don't know
Turn off the lights and we'll glow
To the extreme we rock a mic like a vandal
Light up a stage and wax a chump like a candle
Dance go rush to the speaker that booms
We're killing your brain like a poisonous mushroom
Deadly when we play a dope melody
Anything less than the best is a felony
Love it or leave it you better gang way
You better hit bull's eye the kid don't play
And if there was a problem, yo, we'll solve it
Check out the hook while our DJ revolves it
Episode 116: Fake Octopuses with Carl Robinson
2024/11/10
Look, before anyone starts - I looked it up and the plural of octopus is octopuses - so don't come here with your knock-off latin and claim it's "octopi".
Now that's out of the way, On this episode of Sporadically Board we are joined by Kelp-Boy himself, Carl Robinson (or Karl Robinson, as I like to call him). He's talking to us about his experiences with the scammers and ne'er-do-wells who have been selling fake copies of his extremely successful game, Kelp.
We also talk about other stuff - some of which is board game related and some of which isn't.
One thing we do talk about (but not too much) is the kickstarter fro the game Mike and I designed: I Made You a Mixtape.
There's only a few days left on the kickstarter campaign, so if you were thinking of backing it - then there's no better time to do so than now!
