Thanks for joining us at the table!

Hey there, I'm Ian! Co-Host with Jared at The Game Table Podcast.

I have been gaming for as long as I can remember. My journey started out like many others, with games like Monopoly, the Game of Life, and Risk. I eventually stumbled upon two games called Puerto Rico and Nuclear War, and that began my fascination for games and the expansive world of board gaming. From there, I began to collect and play many different types of board games, and it’s something I’m passionate about to this day! 

I love the experience that gaming provides; friends bonding at the table, all focused on the same thing: having fun. A few of my favorite games are Marvel Champions, Wingspan, and Terraforming Mars.

I will play (almost) any game (sorry to any Monopoly fans out there, I’ve hung up my monocle and top hat for good), and always enjoy sharing my opinion honestly so that everyone can get connected to a game they will love. 

Thanks for tuning in! Can’t wait for you to join us as we dive into the world of gaming!

Hello there! My name is Jared, and I'm the other Co-host of The Game Table Podcast along with my good buddy, Ian.

I’ve always loved games. Growing up, I played a lot more video games than tabletop games. My wife and I love finding things to do together and we were given the opportunity to dip our toes into tabletop games. Before I knew it, we had a collection that spans a wall and a half that have seen many board and card games come and go. Somewhere in the middle of all that, we found D&D… but that’s a whole other story (We love that too!).

I’ve had the opportunity to learn my tastes, other people’s tastes, and what looks beyond amazing but will never see the light of day because both time and responsibilities are a thing. Learning what other people will enjoy and navigating them through an evening of interactive communal fun has become a real passion of mine. Part of my passion for this podcast is to be able to show others what they may or may not like, and I hope we figure out how to achieve that through this endeavor.

Again, I’m so excited to start this journey and I am beyond humbled by anyone who will walk with us down this unknown path. Whether you listen or move on, may your dice rolls and your card draws be blessed, and your experiences at the table be ones to remember forever.
