Broken Meeple Podcast - Episode 115 - UK GAMES EXPO 2025
Sorry everyone, the microphone for some reason recorded my voice way too loud and I can only do so much to fix it, so it will sound a bit distorted this time round. Not sure why, but sad to say I can't do much more about the current recording - will check set up before next recording. I hope however you can still enjoy the episode.

Who Am I?
One single batchelor from the UK talking about his passion for board games and the people who play them! I support small content creators, board game cafes and go against the status quo when it comes to the board game industry. I give my honest opinions without bias towards any publishers or designers and will not hold back if I don't like a game.
The Broken Meeple is a variety channel that hosts all kinds of board game content from reviews to Top 10 lists to playthroughs to live stream collaborations with special guests (predominantly small channels who deserve more exposure).
I look forward to engaging with you, the community on my live streams or in the comments on my videos!

The Broken Meeple - a UK Board Games blog and podcast that reports on board and card games. Reviews, Top 5/10 lists, or just anything that's on my mind! One thing is for sure - I don't hold back and will speak my mind!
In addition to this podcast I have a YouTube channel that showcases review videos and Top 10 lists. Please feel free to check them out!
