What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

An excellent podcast deep diving into the culture and strategy surrounding primarily Twilight Imperium and Leder Games. Though every once in a awhile, like say every 250 episodes, there’s a dash of ecological discussion about their namesake critters.

VisorJon · Jul 2022

Truly the greatest podcast of a generation — listen well and become enlightened. My favorite episode is the original Winnu guide: I would put it on before meetings with an incompetent supplier. No matter how poorly things would go with them it would never be as bad as a Winnu round one!

Rogue Physicist · May 2022

Matt and Hunter have found the perfect balance between providing excellent entertainment and incredibly helpful info/strategy for Twilight Imperium. They were the ones that got me hooked on this astoundingly awesome board game, and has kept me connected to this amazing community even after moving overseas. Whether you are a TI4 veteran or are discovering this game for the first time, check it out!

JT4God · Apr 2022

TI (Twilight imperium) is the super bowl of board games, but can be very difficult to master if you don’t have entire days to spend playing. If you have interest but lack time, look no further! Matt and hunter are here to help with great guides and entertaining banter. They are the heart and soul of the healthy TI 4 community.
