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. https://boardgamegeek.com/goldengeek

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

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! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/cabbagedan/i-made-you-a-mixtape Thanks for listening!
