About Us

Welcome to Eternally Board! We are a board gaming podcast and Youtube show that focuses on the heavier issues in the industry (social issues, community issues, publishing issues, etc.). Our goal is to provide a show that is unique and relevant in an ever-crowded field of board game podcasts and shows. Hope you enjoy!

NEWS
  • 3/19/2019 - Hey folks! We still have two episodes ready to be edited and published, but for the moment I am still working on game design and don't have the time to produce them. Ian, our former producer, has sadly moved away. In the meantime, we've recorded a quick promo for a local designer. Check out the Kickstarter for Plunderbund!
  • 2/5/2019 - I have been hard at work developing three(!) games for publication, so our Year in Review 2018 episode was late, but it's finally here! Enjoy!

  • 6/17/2018 - Episode 20 - Sorry for the hiatus. Charles now has a job that has him working a lot of Sunday afternoons which is unfortunately when we would record the podcast. We'll still be releasing content as often as possible, but it will be more monthly than biweekly as originally intended. But we have some great topics coming up, stay tuned! This month's is about app-enhanced board games.

  • 1/4/2018 - Happy New Year! So I was hesitant to ever do something like this, but the fact is, hosting the website is not free so if you would care to help support our little endeavor and help us keep the lights on, I've created a Patreon page to allow you to do so. Every little bit helps, and 100% of your donations will go towards improving the podcast. Our next episode, which will be our 2017 retrospective, will release next week!
  • 12/26/2017 - Episode 12 & 13 - Happy Holidays all! Two new episodes up! One on BGG.con and one on disposable/legacy games. Check them out!

  • 11/12/2017 - Hey folks! This week's episode will be delayed due to BGG.CON preparations. It may take awhile to get it up, but no worries, we're not going anywhere! We have the next three episodes already recorded, in fact.
  • 10/31/2017 - Episode  9 & 10 - Happy Halloween everyone! Episode 9 was released 2 weeks back, 10 is coming out tonight. It's a couple of days late, apologies. Things have been hectic because my new game, Harvest by TMG, was just released at Essen! Reviews have been amazing, check it out! And enjoy the shows.   :)
  • 9/25/2017 - Episode  8 - So I posted Episode 8 a few days late on a Sunday morning, and it got nearly twice as many downloads as our episodes typically do. Thus, from now on we will release episodes on Sunday Mornings and see how that goes!
  • 9/8/2017 - Episode  7 - Hola from Houston, TX! Everyone here at Eternally Board made it through Harvey okay, but it delayed episode 7 a couple of days, however it's out now! This episode is about probably the most contentious topic in the industry, and that's gender issues. We hope we did a good job addressing it, let us know!
  • 8/25/2017 - Episode 4, 5, 6 - Hey folks! I've been very busy updating the episodes for the site, but I haven't updated the news page. My mistake! Life has been very busy. I have been managing the Argent: The Consortium 2nd Edition Kickstarter as well as preparing for the launch of two new game I designed: Harvest by TMG and Empyreal by Level 99 Games. But I've also been keeping up with Eternally Board Episodes. We have episodes out on Gaming Stores vs. Online Stores, Proselytizing for the Hobby, and Cards Against Humanity. Just click on the Episodes tab and check them out!
  • 7/10/2017 - Episode 3 - Dumbing Down the Spiel des Jahres is up! In our third episode, Eternally Board takes a break from social issues for a special Spiel des Jahres episode and reviews some of the new hot games in the market including the Spiel des Jahres nominees. We then talk about our worst and best SdJ winners of all time. Finally in our Topic du Jour we discuss whether or not it is a good thing that the SdJ award got "dumbed down".
  • 6/29/2017 - Episode 2 - Race in the Community was just uploaded! Check it out! Please note this does not include the coming format changes as it was already recorded before I received your feedback.
  • 6/17/2017 - Format changes incoming! Thanks for all the feedback for episode 1! Starting with Episode 4 (because 2 and 3 are already recorded) we're going to have a new format based on the feedback we've received. The new format will be: Topic du Jour -> Top 3 List related to the Topic -> Games We've Played Lately. Reasoning being, not everyone who is interested in the topic may be a hardcore gamer and may not want to listen to us discuss games for 30 minutes. So this way everyone can get something out of the episode and then can continue listening only if they want to. Please keep providing feedback, it's very useful!
  • 6/16/2017 - The first episode has finally arrived! Check out Eternally Board Episode 1 - Race in the Industry.
  • 6/5/2017 - Our first episode is COMING SOON! Stay tuned.
