Jason Volt, founder of Facebook's Chicago Board Game Group



Happy New Year! Clark is back from a holiday break with our 18th Episode of the Board Game Times Podcast: Our guest this episode is Jason Volt, founder of the Chicago Board Game Group on Facebook.



Clark talks to Jason about his formative years as a gamer and what led him to start the group which now has over 800 members. Jason talks about how he's traveled the road from young Warhammer Fantasy gamer -- and expert distance estimator! -- to a lover of modern Eurogames.



Jason also shares the trials and tribulations of finding a regular gaming group of his own and how founding the Chicago Board Game Group helped him finally find his tabletop players group. You'll also learn how you can become a member and help the group grow, what Jason thinks is his most irksome gaming trait, and where and when the next group meetup is happening.



Separately, Clark makes a revision to his year-end list of top gaming experiences and he shares big news: he's starting a job in the board game industry!
