Ludology
A podcast with analytical discussion of how and why board games work. Focuses on game design and the hobby's ideas rather than reviews.
Game design discussion that looks at why games work, not only what is new.

A small cup sits beside the board with a curl of steam rising. Rook says the kettle was the bold move all along.
A cream sign tucked under the roof gives the table its name. Every good game deserves a title card.
Two wooden legs keep the table steady, so every opening move stays exactly where it was put.
