Hi, we are Jennie and Chris, your friendly hosts and we'd like to welcome you to the Melbourne Meeples podcast, the Friendly Meeple Lounge!
What is Melbourne Meeples? We are a Not-For-Profit Organisation who runs board game events all around Victoria. As such, we set our eyes and hands on a lot of different board games, and we want to share what we know with you! We know, there are lots of people out there already talking about board games, but we noticed that not many people are talking about how friendly games are for people who are Neurodiverse or who have disabilities, such as Colour-Blindness. So, we break it down, give you some tips to make the game more friendly, bringing along our significant others, friends and even members, as well as many other special guests, to talk about it.
To find out more information about Melbourne Meeples and all of our events, you can check us out here: https://meeples.org.au/

We Feel The Earth Move!
And now, for another episode of the Friendly Meeples Lounge! Join Chris Ingold and Jen Florez of the Melbourne Meeples Team, and this time we are joined by a very special guest, Dan Harris from Board Game BBQ! Luckily for Jen, Dan lives local to her and they two of them were recently able to share a game together at Board In The West. Oros is a relatively new game, one that definitely encouraged a lot of banter and laughs, and made for a super hilarious chat. What was the special topic this week? Do you struggle to find two player games that are really well designed for two players? Well, we have a fantastic list of recommendations for you. Which games? You'll just have to listen to find out!

In Search of New Horizons!
And now, for another episode of the Friendly Meeples Lounge! Join Chris Ingold and Jen Florez of the Melbourne Meeples Team, and this time we are joined by our new Meeples Team member, Francois Grobler! This time we are taking a look at a game that's a touch controvertial. For those of us who live in colonised countries, we sometimes forget about the impact that our ancestors had on those who already lived in those nations. Archipelago takes a very real look at the impact that those early settlers had on the natives of those countries and we discuss what it's like to play the bad guys!
