Board Game Podcasts is a collection of podcast feeds that have at least one thing in common: The included podcasts talk (at least a little) about board games and related games. Most board game related podcasts include reviews, chatter about the games hit our tables, or even what's going on the industry. We might even talk about other things besides modern board games, but you won't find podcasts that focus on gambling.

Modern board games are also known as parlor games, board games, classic games, card games, dice games, war games, designer board games, German board games, Eurogames, and American style board games.
The Spiel is a show about games and the people who love them. Each episode, we review and discuss a new board game or card game from our massive collection. We also highlight overlooked classics and play a stump-the-band style quiz, the Game Sommelier, trying to match the right game with the right crowd. The Spiel takes a long hard look at fun and games by having fun playing games. Our goal is to expose our audience to the wider world of games.
