I'm having a lot of fun making these "travelogues" of the various shows I go to on behalf of Leder Games. This one is special because Indie Games Night Market is a deeply inspiring event that everyone should take part in... ledergamesromp.podbean.com/e/032-pax-un...

I reached out to The White House and asked about its use of AI-generated Halo imagery. White House Deputy Press Secretary Kush Desai just responded to me, and it's insane. I've removed the paywall. Please share and subscribe if you can. www.patreon.com/posts/exclus...

Board Games

Hey all! I am out of my current gig on September 12th! I would be very interested in part time work! Full time work or any sort of coverage on my channel. I am very good at… 1. Customer Service 2. Content Creation (Videos) 3. Social Media Marketing Please keep an ear out!

@colewehrle.bsky.social and I put together a puppet show at GenCon this year and it's one of my favorite creative pursuits I've done in a long while. Come and be charmed by cardboard 2D puppets youtu.be/h4gyN3yS2Vc?...

Look, I started a new book. Everyone pat me on the back. I want to feel smart.

We're being really coy about it, but everyone should absolutely come to the @leder.games Hootenanny on Sat at 6pm of GenCon. Room 135. The team has been working so hard on what we have in store and I'm so excited for everyone to see it. You don't actually need a ticket, just come on by

BACK-TO-BACK 🗣️ THE MINNESOTA FROST ARE THE WALTER CUP CHAMPIONS FOR THE SECOND SEASON IN A ROW!

I'm really excited to be diving into @gregisonthego.bsky.social and Nick Brachmann's Ahoy. @lordoftheboard.bsky.social is also excited and this game is worth some in depth analysis! You can expect more throughout the summer. ledergamesromp.podbean.com/e/008-introd...

I'll be at UKGE at the end of the month and am looking to meet folks! Who all will be around?

Wondering about game manufacturing and why so many games are printed in China? My colleague, @napoleanne.bsky.social, will be joining me for a livestream on Tuesday, 4/15, at 7 PM CST! Come and ask your questions, and we'll do our best to answer them. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8crC...

Okay we all give Geoff Keighly a lot of grief for doing like no awards at The Game Awards. But you all thought he was emulating the Oscars, when he's actually doing the Grammy's...

My four year old daughter is on her second playthrough of Thank Goodness You're Here. I am a good father, I swear.

My first time just playing 2p, Base Ahoy. Clutch game. We tied in the end and I won with 1 gold to my opponent's 0. I stole their gold in my last action of the game. Can't get closer than that!

It'd be a real shame if someone introduced a box sized addition to this mess...

I think alt text is an art form.

That canceled TV show you'll never stop thinking about

Weekend Vibes

You gain absolutely nothing by watching Trump speak. Just wanted to remind everyone of that.

GenCon was spent helping organize a Booth and Demo Room for @ledergames.bsky.social and Live Shows with @spacecatspod.bsky.social. This crew made me well up multiple times with their kindness, generosity, and unrelenting humor.

GenCon is next week and I think I might implode

We're getting closer to our move to St. Paul, and it's feeling like we'll actually successfully end up in the house we bought. (Long story) But it's a house that's gonna need some work. So I've started watching This Old House and have decided this is my new personality.

Proud to finally announce: I've been hired full time by @ledergames.bsky.social to coordinate events (conventions, but maybe MORE?) and manage communities like BGG, reddit, and Discord. Excited to join a team I already love and can't wait to see what the future holds...

It's time to start a new Pinback phase

Few things are more fun than planning a very stupid board game stream.

I'll introduce myself! I'm a podcaster and board game person. I play extremely long space games over at @spacecatspod.bsky.social I talk about video games on @oldgamersalmanac.bsky.social I read Kid's Literature on @dadsreadingbooks.bsky.social
