This week I'm back to a little post PAX normalcy with all the 'games that were'!
Broketober continues (and looks like it will lead straight into No-money-vember) with the eternal march of crowdfunding....
I update you with the games that have been delivered of late and I share my part joy part terror at the thought of actually attending Essen.
Huge thank you to all the OMC crew that have sent me your live photos and updates, it's been...
This economy size 'Murca level episode brings you the games that were from Pax Australia, in FOMOMOFO I go down the rabbit hole that is this time of year and Ermergerd it is voluminous....
Then I share my two 'best in show', my picks of Pax and they were both wonderful surprises.
Also, full disclosure, I played a buttload (that's a real measurement, look it up) of games, and I likely misquote a number of rules throughout this mammoth...
This week I'll share all the games that were (toasters, toasters everywhere....) I'll share my angst ridden tortured relationship with crowdfunding in FOMOMOFO and I discuss my thoughts on Stonemaier's launch model of compressed FOMO.
It's PAX Australia this week, the best week of the year.
Have a great week OMC crew, you're the very best crew.
(Please note, there will be no episode next week due to Pax Australia....)
Do not buy games on Saturday night...... it'll all make sense soon...
This week we go through all The Games that Were, and there were some GREAT games this week....
We're back to our regular FOMOMOFO program where I share my angst ridden personal battle with crowdfunding, and in Voices in My Head I share with you a parable of bad decisions.
Don't worry, it all ends well.
Have an amazing week OMC crew, you guys are the very best.
This week we're rolling a little differently, it's a hot run through crowdfunding with an uber session of FOMOMOFO and then straight to the table with the Voices in My Head.
Turns out, I may have a slight boardgame porn addiction. I'm also SORT of ok with that, though this epiphany comes with some ideas.
Errata pack - I mention 'Calimala by Reiner Knitzia', apologies, I was thinking of Cascadero, different beige, I blame the coffee.
Spoiler alert, I had an amazing week. This week is a mammoth serving of 'the games that were', a quick skip through FOMOMOFO, and a dash of INCOMING!!!! (yes. 4 exclamation marks)
In 'Voices in my Head' I coin a new category of game for my collection, and I give a very deserved clap this week.
Also, very real spoiler alert, I talk at length about Clank Legacy in this episode, and neglected to warn about spoilers before I started. Apo...
It's hard to believe it's been a year, huge thank you to every one of you!
This week, I go through the 'Games that Were', we take a trip down FOMOMOFO road and I issue a small retraction following my wild rant of two weeks ago, and in 'Voices in my Head', I share the wild ride that has been the first year of this fabulous therapy group.
You guys are amazing.
Well we did it. We finished Cycle One of Aeon Trespass Odyssey...
If you have no interest in Aeon Trespass, feel free to skip this.
Super Trooper joins me for a full length breakdown (technical, not mental) of our Cycle One experience. We do a half hour of spoiler free, then we go right down the rabbit hole.
Spoiler alert, there are spoilers.
Also, Aeon Trespass is very special. It's not for everyone, but it's definitely for us.
Have a ...
This week life is good.
I share with you all the 'Games that Were', we go down the Ark Nova rabbit hole in FOMOMOFO, and in Voices in My Head I share with you the evolution of my board game loves over the year and what it means to me.
Have an amazing week OMC crew, wherever you are in the world, I appreciate you.
Thanks for this week's therapy session, you're the best.

This week, some good things, some terrible things, some boardgame things.
Mostly just good vibes only. .We're back to FOMOMOFO (not Nepalese dumplings, those are momos), some games were played, and I tell a story.
It's been a week, I couldn't tick the 'explicit' button twice, it should be an option. Sorry, not sorry.
rage, rage against the dying of the light.....
Somehow, Palpatine returned....
I"m back, was off for reasons, sorry but also not.
Lots of news this week in a return to form.
This week with a Playcon wrap up, news, the way forward and a new job.
Also ads. OMC now qualifies for paid ads, and we're trialing that from this week.
Have a great week OMC crew, love ya!
Yesterday we finished a major milestone in one of the Campaigns we're playing. It was glorious.
Today, I'm sharing my thoughts on the finish line. We'll make some noise in space during the 'Games that Were', I'll share all my capitalist angst in FOMOMOFO, and we'll have a regular therapy session in voices in my head.
Someone may or may not get the clap.
Happy Monday, OMC crew!
Happy podcast day OMC crew!
I needed a little more coffee today, so much rambling. But eventually we got through it, the 'Games that were...', a full tour of FOMOMOFO, in Voices in My Head I finally share my feels about Elder Scrolls Betrayal of the Second Era, not gameplay, not rules, just the feels.
And someone gets the clap.
Have a great week Fam!
Love ya.
Taking a short break from the regular format, Super Trooper and I share our top 10 expansions, that make the game better, and maybe one or tow that don't!
Happy Monday OMC Crew!
This week I share my ramblings about how a campaign keeps you engaged. Short campaigns, medium campaigns and MURKA level campaigns, because they kind of all do it differently!
You get to hear about all the games that were (more shelf of firsts this week!), we take a trip through FOMOMOFO and discuss all things Kaiju and Restoration Games. We take a slow hand in hand stroll through my frontal lobe in Voices in My Head, before giving ...
What makes a 'good loss'? Spoiler alert, it's a good loser. I'm a good loser, but played with someone that puts me to shame.
I share with you all the games that were, we take a journey through this week's FOMOMOFO, we'll have a quiet chat with the voices in my head and this week I remember to give someone the clap.
Have a great week OMC crew!
Happy Monday OMC crew!
Recording very early on very little sleep today, hope you're in the mood for waffles....because I'm waffling for pretty much the whole hour.
This week I'm back to our regular format, I take you through all the Games That Were, we're back to living in constant fear of missing out with FOMOMOFO, and there's a brief stop for INCOMING!!!!
We tiptoe through my frontal lobe in Voices in my Head, and I share my deepes...
This week I get to spend time with the legendary Mark Bigney and Michael Walker of So Very Wrong About Games!
So Very Wrong About Games is a Golden Geek Award winning podcast and this week I get to share their origin story and what makes SVWAG, SVWAG.
A huge thank you to Mark and Walker for their time,
Have a great week OMC crew!
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, an...
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 o...
