The Longest Turn is a podcast about table top board games. We're just a group of friends who love games and enjoy talking about the hobby we love! For each episode, we generally discuss the games we've been playing lately. We'll also focus each episode on a board gaming discussion, an in depth feature review of a game, or a top 5/10 list. We'll also include a variety of other segments discussing all aspects of gaming. We hope you join us! Support us on Buy Me a Coffee!
