Gen Con 2024 is soon to be upon us! Content creator Ruel Gaviola joins Going Analog to talk games and Gen Con, Gen Con and games.
It's almost time for North America's largest board game convention, Gen Con! We've been frantically trying to cram in all the hot new games on our shelf of shame/opportunity before we discover...even more hot new games at the big show. We ask the busy Ruel Gaviola, board gaming showrunner, producer, podcaster, and host of several YouTube and Twitch channels (including Good Time Society, Rahdo Runs Through, and Tabletop Tonight), to tell us what he's looking forward to at Gen Con and which cool games he's been playing lately.
To help support the Going Analog Podcast, please check out Magic Mind's Mental Performance Shots! We'll be drinking these to help keep us going through a busy convention week, and now Magic Mind is offering our listeners a free three-pack trial. (You just have to pay for shipping and can cancel whenever you'd like.) Just go to magicmind.com/ANALOGTRIAL and use our promo code "analogtrial" to get your free three bottles.
