  • Episode 76 - Nate Zabel of Damage Buff Wants to Develop Your Games!
    We've talked with designers, artists, hosts, publishers, artisans, reviewers, and all types of people in this industry... But this is the first time I'm talking with a developer, and I couldn't be more excited! Nate and I go into WHAT IS Board Game Development, and why he's so cut out for it. We also hit on things ranging from coaching to questing, and everything to do with his new venture, Damage Buff.

  • Episode 75 - Carla Kopp of Weird Giraffe Games ROUND 2!
    Carla is one of my favorite people in this industry. Thoughtful, witty, and a taste for the weird. I'm so glad that she agreed to come back on The Cardboard Herald, for our back to back, two parter, Fire in the Library extravaganza that began with Tony "The Bearded Rogue" Miller coming on last week.

  • Episode 74 - Tony "Bearded Rougue" Miller Comes Back To Set Fire To My Library
    I had such a great time chatting with Tony last time that we hardly got to dive into games. Well fortunately, Tony came back and is here to talk about his hot new game on kickstarter right now, Fire in the Library. Next week, Carla Kopp of Weird Giraffe Games will come on and give a publishers perspective on this ferocious, fire game.

  • Episode 73 - Tristan Hall of Hall or Nothing Productions & Mark Chaplin, co-designer of Lifeform
    I love talking with Tristan, and even better, he brings his buddy Mark Chaplin who is co-designer of Lifeform. This beautiful game inspired by classic sci-fi horror movies sounds tense, terrifying, and fun!

  • Episode 71 - Alex & Mike of What The Film?! & Lethal Chicken Games
    We do a quick turnaround, recording an episode on Tuesday and posting on Wednesday with Alex Mackey & Mike Szalajko of What The Film?! which is up on kickstarter right now. This was particularly interesting to me, not only because of their extremely well produced  kickstarter video, but because I don't typically talk to people about party games. So we talk about just that - why party games?

  • Episode 69 - No Siestas for Andreas "Ode." Odendahl
    When La Granja came out, it blew my mind. Fast forward to Dice Tower Con in 2017 and I'm checking out the beautifully distilled dice version, No Siesta, and I'm in love. But it turns out that Ode. and I have a lot more in common than just a love for euro games, and we cover everything from playing in Hardcore Bands to defining characteristics of different types of Euro Games in this wonderful interview.

  • Episode 68 - Tony Miller, The Bearded Rogue of Breaking Into Board Games
    Perhaps you know my guest Tony Miller better by his moniker "The Bearded Rogue". A purple haired, bearded board game designer who's gruff exterior is betrayed by his kind, gentle interior. We talk about games, emotional struggles, podcasting, reviews, and even venture briefly into politics.
