Michael Mindes recently picked up a game called My Story and he is ridiculously excited about it, and he wants you to be excited about it as well!

Anthony Racano is what I would call a good friend, and a friend that I would not have if it were not for the boardgame hobby. He hosts his own podcast, The Cardboard Jungle, but he was kind enough to join me for a long conversation about a myriad of topics, but mostly the boardgame hobby.

Head of development, Seth Jaffee, is sad he didn't get to go to Essen, but he is hoping to get his hands on a few choice games that have peaked his interest. He also talks about the three brand new games from TMG that released at Essen - Exodus Fleets, Harvest, and Pioneer Days.

Before he took off to Essen, Michael sat down with me last week to talk about the Downfall Kickstarter and what he has learned over the years with over 30 successful crowdfunding projects under his belt.

With the launch of the Downfall Kickstarter imminent, John D. Clair took some time out of his schedule to talk to us here at TMG about where his inspiration for Downfall came from, and how the design has changed over the years as he worked on it.

Ever wanted to know about why Scott Alden is still waiting for his Duke Nukem payout and why he always wanted to work on a food truck?

Then listen in!

We hit social media and asked people for their questions for the President of our company, and now Daniel was kind enough to answer all of them. This episode is longer than our usual offerings, but I think it is worth it.

At Essen this year, TMG will be releasing the fantastic game, Exodus Fleets. Gabriel Cohn designed that game and he was kind enough to sit down with me and talk about what it took for him to get that game designed, made, and published.

Kevin Burkhardsmeier has, in my opinion, lived about 5 lives already in his time here on Earth. Take a listen to him talk about how he got interested in board games, and the changes they made to his life.

While at Gen Con, Jeremiah Isley brought his recording equipment with him wherever he went. Whenever he could, he sat down with attendees, publishers, and event staff and asked them, in their own words, "What Makes Gen Con?"

Enjoy!
