Episode 98: The 2020 Board Game BBQ Awards!

Tonight we bring you a special episode: the 2020 Board Game BBQ Awards.

You may remember last month we put the call out to our community to nominate your favorite games of 2020 in nine categories. We were inundated with nominations and we took the most popular nominations in each category and they became the official nominees for the 2020 Awards.

And then we handed those nominations over to our esteemed panel of judges: our Patreon community, to vote on what they believe should be the best games of 2020 and worthy of the coveted Board Game BBQ award.

We recorded the award ceremony live at our recent retreat where the nine of us came together for the first time.

This podcast is an audio version of that awards ceremony but for full effect I’d encourage you to head over to our YouTube channel and watch the full video package that we have put together.

All of this of course wouldn’t be possible without the support of all of you, our fabulous Community, our Patreons and our sponsors: D26 Games in Brisbane and Advent games in Sydney.

Next episode we will be back to our regular shenanigans but for now sit back and enjoy the 2020 Board Game BBQ Awards. And congratulations to all the winners.
