Short DescriptionSubject Matter: Table Top is an academic podcast about board games and the subject matter that animate them. Join the hosts as they reflect upon playing games with subject experts over the last year.
Long DescriptionSubject Matter: Table Top (SM:TT) is an academic podcast about board games and the subject matter that animate them. Hosts Steve Gotzler and Jordan Tynes explore the world of tabletop games with people who possess a deep understanding of the themes, settings, systems, or content that we encounter in them. What does a historian think about while playing Pax Pamir? A labor organizer sitting down for a round of STRIKE? A space anthropologist and Terraforming Mars? SM:TT considers how games communicate information about the subjects they take up. It also asks how games can influence players’ feelings about each other, and the world that they inhabit. From the physical components strewn about the table, to the rules we share while playing, SM:TT explores the cultural relevance of tabletop gaming. Join the hosts for a discussion about game studies podcasting as scholarly research.
