Episode 17: Top games and experiences and taking my own medicine

Clark Bender (in Elf form) of the Board Game Times podcast

It’s the end of the year so for the 17th episode of Board Game Times we figured we’d give the guests a rest and make host Clark Bender do all the work!

This episode Clark talks about some of his top games and gaming experiences in 2021 and — instant Karma — he has to answer the minigame questionnaire all on his own! Discover Clark’s worst gaming traits, why a certain green beverage is always at his side, and generally listen to his discomfort as he talks about himself for an entire episode!

Thanks to all who have listened in 2021. Here’s to a fantastic new year! The podcast will resume in early January — this time with guests, thank goodness!
