Top 5 Board Games

Welcome to the Top 5 Podcast, a show where we rank and discuss any list you can imagine. Best Ice cream? Top gaming consoles? Best blenders? Nothing is off limits, everyone is wrong even when they think they are right! We are your hosts Zach Rancourt, Eric Schoen and Thomas Lockhart.

We’ve all been there: It’s Sunday family day and you’re 3 hours deep into Monopoly. You’ve got hotels on the Marvin Gardens and Pennsylvania Avenue blocks. It’s down to just your thimble vs. grandma’s race car. What happens next is up to the Milton Bradley gods. Everyone has played a board game in their life, and while not every experience has been like this, chances are that there are some formative moments in life based around board games. Which are some of the best, though? Today we are discussing our Top 5 Board Games. To clarify, we use board game in the broad sense to categorize any manual games to be played with others, just not video games.

To enhance discussion, we didn’t share our lists with each other. As usual, we are by no means experts or historians in said category. We are just a few dudes who like to talk about nonsense.
