Sporadically Board with Mike and Dan

Episode 105.5: Return of the Mailbag (Redux)

Sound the trumpets! Ring the bells! Trim the hedges! Yes, it's time for another incomparable, inconceivable, incompetent epidode of Sporadically Board.   LISTEN - as Dan quizzes Mike about hip new phrases buzzing around the zeitgeist. YEARN - as Dan...

Episode 104: The Mike Dilisio AireCon, also with The Dice Tower

Dan and I are known for our encyclopedic knowledge of most things in life. Board games? Sure. Puddings? Absolutely. Mechanical Engineering? Obviously. What many people don't realize is that we are also experts in AI technology and the societal and...

Episode 103: Cross Coastal Con Chat: Including a MAJOR EXCLUSIVE ANNOUNCEMENT!

Can it be so soon? It seems like only 2 months ago that a Sporadically Board episode came crashing through the Internet to wash over your earholes in a soothing wave. Well, it's true. We're back, and we come to...

Episode 102: Kentucky Derby Special - with The Board Game Snobs

This episode was DEMANDED by the entire Board Game Snobs Community, and let me tell you, that guy was super annoying. Gaby and Jerry join us to talk about... ...honestly I have no idea. We played a couple of game...

Episode 101: Don't Worry, Kelp is on the Way - with Carl Robinson

After the multimedia extravaganza that was Episode 100, we keep the fireworks going by inviting first time guest and first time designer Carl Robinson. Carl has designed Kelp, a two-player asymmetrical game that offers players a unique opportunity to delve...

Episode 99: Magically Delicious

Episode 99. You know how sometimes when there's some kind of big numerical milestone looming on a podcast, the episode just before it is a lackluster placeholder type of episode? Well, we were going to do that but Gaby was...

Episode 98: Flipping Lorcana For Cold Hard Bathroom Tiles

Well, what do you know? Another freshly baked episode comes piping hot out of the SpoBo oven, and it's ready for your hungry ears. I'd blow on it first if I were you, but I'll also understand if you're willing...

Episode 97: Educating Evan

Episode 97! Three away from a major milestone. Although as we've said in the past, that number is slightly suspect in the sense that every one of our episodes is at least 4 times the length of our "peers". Also,...

Episode 96: Take a Bow with guest Kirsten Lunde

Dan and Mike are recording with alarming frequency these days. Frankly, it seems suspicious if you ask me. However, as I'm one of the people participating and since I have no ulterior motive that I'm comfortable divulging, you'll all just...

Episode 95: You've Got Some Nerve - with Ben Maddox

Hot off the presses, here's episode 95! We invite special guest Ben Maddox of the fantastic Five Games For Doomsday podcast along for the ride, and what a ride it is. On this episode we discuss: Care Bears. The 2023...

Episode 94: Coronations and Comic Books

In this episode, Mike and Dan discuss the Coronation of the King of England, (including Dan's taxes being used to fund it), and Free Comic Book Day!   We also discuss importing board games from parts of the world we...

Episode 93: Yet Again, Your Consideration is Requested - with Luke Prior

Well, it's that time again. The time when all board game podcasts are pitted against each other in a no holds barred competition of bloodsport. Remember Bloodsport? With Claude Van Damme? They called him "The Muscles From Brussels". I digress....

Episode 92: Relocations and Conventions

Mike talks about his upcoming move back to the Midwest. Dan talks about stealthily eating crisps while recording a professional podcast. Aire Con and Dice Tower West battle it out in a "Battle of the Board Game Conventions". Actually they...

Episode 91.5 : Dan and Mike Succumb To The Whims of Technology

Well this episode has been quite a journey. First, we had to scrap the first 30 minutes and se-start (no big loss there, we hadn't even made a single salient point). Next, we had multiple issues uploading the episode to...
