Field notes

The site organizes short audio episodes alphabetically by game and provides both a podcast feed and direct MP3 downloads. The visible catalog includes five modern board games, from Pandemic Legacy: Season 1 to SETI: Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence, with listed runtimes spanning 7 minutes 20 seconds to 8 minutes 28 seconds. Its instructions name Apple Podcasts, Overcast, Pocket Casts, and YouTube Music as possible listening destinations, while a disclaimer says the summaries do not replace the rulebook.
