One Man Clapping has been live for 6 months! With all the doom and gloom in the board game world right we're celebrating with good news only. This week I'm sharing everything that I'm excited for in this coming year. Welcome to the Half Yearly Good Vibes Only Jamboree! All the campaigns I'm waiting for, all the up and coming campaigns that I'm excited for, and all the preorders that have me smiling. 2025 is going to be a wild ride, and I'm here for the long run....

Episode 24 - a different kind of FOMO

Finally back in the chair after three weeks off and very happy to be here! I go through all the Games that Were (spoiler alert, there were a lot!), I take you through what's INCOMING!!!!, we're going to skip over FOMOMOFO for reasons, and in Voices In My Head I share my thoughts on the chaos of the world today. This is not a tariff podcast, but I'd call it 'tariff adjacent'..... and a different kind of FOMO, the Fear of Missing Out on games we've already paid for.... Have a great week OMC crew, missed ya!

Episode 23 - Big Day Out!

12 hour gaming day yesterday means a full wrap today! Super Trooper and I do a full breakdown of all the 'Games that Were!' from yesterday's game day, with a side of random ramblings. A short break as I'm off on holiday for 2 weeks, but will be back after that! Have a great week, OMC crew!

Episode 22 - Mummy Issues

This week, I"m back after traveling for work and have been making up for lost time. You get to hear about all 'The Games That Were', and this week, there were plenty, including new games off my Shelf of Firsts! New games in, though no sign of 'the game that shall not be named', instead, some retail games have just come in, finally available in Australia, HUZZAH!!! In FOMOMOFO we'll chat about a number of campaigns, none of which I'm backing (spoiler alert), and in 'Voices in my Head', I'm unpicking two Egyptian themed games that tickle the same spot for me, and do a fantastic job of it. Have a great week, OMC crew! Note: minor 'My Island' game spoilers 18:45-19:15

This week in 'Voices in my head' I go down the rabbit hole of Expansions as their own sub-category of FOMOMOFO, and I share all the games that were. It's been a YUUUUGE time for Incoming!!!! with 6 new games in the bunker, and of course I give someone the clap. Be good to each other!

In 'voices in my head', I take you through my personal obsession with game inserts and I give someone the clap. Happy Monday OMC crew!

Episode 17 - the rise of Skynet - aka A.I. art

This week, I take you through all the 'games that were', including the Aeon Trespass marathon. I refrain from mentioning Betrayal of the Second Era, for one week only, sort of... Things are ramping up in crowdfunding for the start of the year, in FOMOMOFO I take you through a number of new campaigns, including Everdell Silverfrost, La Patisserie Rococo, Darwin's Journey, as well as the daily pain of 'late pledge season'... In 'Voices in my Head', I'm unpicking the furor over A.I. art in gaming and what that means, and of course I give the clap to a very deserving recipient. Get your came on, O.M.C. crew....

Episode 16 - the light side of the dark side

This week I go through the 'games that were' from the last 2 weeks, spoiler alert, it was a fantastic 2 weeks... In INCOMING!!!! I go through what's on the way in, aside from BOTSE, which yes, I will talk about again, sorry, not sorry.... FOMOMOFO touches on the crowdfunding campaigns that are starting to kick off, though it is most definitely a slow start, along with the campaigns that are coming, which look to be amazing! In 'Voices In My Head', I share my own story, and the role that board games have played and continue to play, in my mental health, I can't be the only one. Oh, and I give the clap to a very deserved individual, with my personal thanks.

Episode 15 - Not all heroes wear capes - Paul Grogan

This is the first in OMC's series for 2025 'Not all heroes wear capes', where I bring to you the origin stories for some of board gaming's most notable contributors. Every hero has a beginning, and I'm very excited for this series. In this episode, we get a VERY candid look at the legendary Paul Grogan and how Gaming Rules was born. Please note, this was OMC's first international recording and due to some technical difficulties parts of the interview needed to be re-recorded after the fact. If you sense any irregularities or unusual fluctuations in the episode, please note that every effort has been made to correct the gaps with integrity and accuracy to the original interview. My effusive thanks to Paul Grogan for making himself available, and for also for his understanding of the unfortunate gaffe. Also, for those of you that are wondering if Paul Grogan is as much a gentleman in person as he appears to be, the answer is no, he is not. He is far more, with a generosity of spirit that supersedes your expectations at every turn. Oh yes, and cicadas. Still the freaking cicadas.
