    A Whiskey for the End of the Show

    A Whiskey for the End of the Show

    This was supposed to be episode 209, with some game analysis, an idiot box recommendation and some isights into music and community. I didn't like the results. It didn't really feel of any value to do things as I would have when Punching Cardboard was in it's prime. After re-recording several times I realized there was no getting around the fact that the show as it existed was finished. 
    Hence, here we are, in the Whiskey for the end of  . . .  format that I adopted at the beginning of the dark times. This feels more genuine, and after 208 episodes, it seems like the best way to end the original show.

    Adieu.

    Episode 207 -- The Hermit Years

Great podcast.

One of the few board gaming podcasts I specifically make time to listen to each time a new episode comes out.

Brilliant!

The guys have a well-tuned love of Euros and articulate their passion with great humour and integrity. I am a new convert to the podcast and can't get enough of it. True class.
