Episode 17 - First Play Goggles: It Doesn't Look Good, Will You Play Again?
Bad first plays are like bad first dates—you’re hungry, tired, and secretly hoping the game would just end. Sometimes a game falls flat because of bad rules. Sometimes it’s because Eric is texting during the teach (jokes of course). Sometimes it’s because Splendor tricked us with its giant empty box.We answer the eternal question: is it the game, or is it me?Find us on Facebook Group and drop us a line, love letters, rate/write us review to help us create more contents, chat about the topics you hear - https://www.facebook.com/groups/lifebeyondboardgamespodcast"Send us a love letter"Our podcast link - https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/2441648.rssFacebook Group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/lifebeyondboardgamespodcast/Meeple University - https://www.youtube.com/MeepleUniversity

Episode 16 - Takesy Backsies: The Board Gamer’s Survival Instinct
We're diving deep into the ancient gamer art of “Wait, wait, I didn’t mean that move!” From back seats to backtracks, we explore how far gamers will go to reclaim their choices… and their dignity. Laughs, debates, and just a sprinkle of regret and trauma might be included."Send us a love letter"Our podcast link - https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/2441648.rssFacebook Group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/lifebeyondboardgamespodcast/Meeple University - https://www.youtube.com/MeepleUniversity
In this episode of Life Beyond Board Games, Stella, Candice, and Eric attempt to discuss their escape rooms experience. From the “ancient origins” of escape rooms (aka, forgetting your keys) to tips that are not advised will work, like “just start breaking stuff,” (jokes, don't do this at home). This conversation is part comedy roast, part puzzle-solving therapy session. Expect absurd tangents, dubious historical accuracy, and enough (maybe bad) advice to get you kicked out of your next escape room. Any good escape room experience? Please write us a comment so we can check it out, or roast it (jokes).

Episode 13 - Beats, Board Games, and Basement Secrets
Welcome to another not-so-serious episode of Life Beyond Board Games, where we dive into the surprisingly rhythmic world of music while gaming. Join us as we groove through game-night playlists, debate the best beats for board games, our favorite music to play during different board game genres—from chill vibes for puzzly euros, to epic soundtracks for panic cooperative games, to... awkward silence for intense deduction games😆 Maybe not. Tune in for beats, banter, and basement-based conspiracies!
