Game Night with the Saints: Recent Episodes
Jess and Brad St. Pierre
Game Night with the Saints is a podcast about hobby board games hosted by Jess and Brad St. Pierre. Each episode, we'll talk about a favorite board game memory, highlight a couple of crowdfunding efforts we think are particularly interesting, and then dive into a feature topic (usually an in-depth review of a game). Come have a listen as we share our love of all things board games!
We're back with our tenth episode after a rocky start to 2022 thanks to mandatory work travel and COVID-19 quarantining! In this episode, we discuss our favorite board game memories of the past few weeks, before jumping into our Notable News and Crowdfunding Corner. Finally, we do a deep dive into Intrepid, designed by Jeff Beck and Jeff Krause, published by Uproarious Games.
