This is the trailer for my new YouTube show, TableTop:



I wrote all about it in my blog:


The idea is to make a show that's like Celebrity Poker and Dinner for Five, with nerdy hobby tabletop games.

In season one of the show, we play games like Settlers of Catan, The Last Night on Earth, Munchkin, Small World, and Alhambra. Some of the players include Grant Imahara, Sean Plott (better known as Day[9]), Dodger Leigh, Ryan Higa, Beth Riesgraf, Phil Lamarr, Morgan Webb, Garfunkle and Oats, Veronica Belmont, and Colin Ferguson.

My ulterior motive with Tabletop is to show by example how much fun it is to play boardgames. I want to show that Gamers aren't all a bunch of weirdoes who can't make eye contact when they talk to you, and that getting together for a game night is just as social and awesome as getting together to watch Sportsball, or to play poker, or for a LAN party, or whatever non-gamers do with their friends. I want to inspire people to try hobby games, and I want to remove the stigma associated with gaming and gamers.



Check it out, and let me know what you think. I'm incredibly excited for the world to see it when it debuts on April 2.

I'd completely forgotten you still had a profile here! I saw the trailer on your blog and felt compelled to see if you're still on here. Plus, you've inspired me. A good friend is in hospital due to cancer, and I think some gaming might be a way for him to find hospital visits a little more bearable and maybe something to enjoy.

I just heard about this in your interview. I think the premise of this series is great! I'm excited to see it. I'm hardcore into Warhammer and just like you mentioned, It is a very social event. I have a group of friends who come over every Sunday and we make bacon and paint Warhammer its great! Some film students had made a documentary on Warhammer with my friends and I, if you have 20 mins to spare you should check it out.
