BGB Volume 60 - BGG.con 2008, Part 1: Interviews

Just under the wire, here is the final Boardgame Babylon for 2008. It's been a slower year at the podcast due to work, family and other issues but I look forward to a firmer schedule in 2009 - if possibly a pretty relaxed pace. You can expect a couple more shows in January as I clean out the archives a bit including an interview with Greg Lam of Pair-A-Dice Games and the now mythic Games Workshop Games of the 80's Rectangular Table Discussion. I'm mentioning them both here because that way I can be shamed into finally releasing them...

But for now, here is BGB v60 - a series of interviews I conducted at BGG.con last month. I apologize for the sound quality on the interviews. I hadn't intended to podcast at the show but I ended up doing so anyway with the recorder on my Blackjack and now I know - we won't be using that again (the iRiver died some time ago...)

Anyway, the show includes interviews with the folks from Asmodee, Your Move Games, Bucephalus Games, and Ape Games (plus a bonus chat with Kevin G. Nunn of "duck duck GO!" fame) - plus some noteworthy news I share about the very special, very cool guest we have joining us here in Los Angeles for Orccon 2009. You'll want to check flight prices when you hear about who is joining us here in Southern California for the big show. As noted on the show, a second BGG.con show with some locals chatting about the convention will be coming soon. When Aldie gets around to releasing the fun show he recorded with Jason Matthews, Tom Lehmann and Derk, you can hear me asking more than my fair share of questions, too. ;)

Also, listen in to hear about the BGG.con coins that have been launched here and around the world. Keep those coins moving and you can check out where they have been right here. You may be able to get in on the fun even if you didn't attend BGG.con.

Thanks for downloading and listening to Boardgame Babylon. Happy New Year!
