Bittersweet Moment #8: PLAY


Listen Later

On this week's Bittersweet Moment, Katy talks about the joys of play, and specifically, games. We are all familiar with simple childhood games, board games, and travel games, but what about games that spark your imagination and fuel your creativity?

Katy's longtime friend Robert Fulgham, author of, among many others, All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten, makes a brief appearance on this mini-episode to talk about "infinite" games. He puts it best when he says that the purpose of playing these games is "to add a quality of delight to the serious business of the world."

On this episode, you'll learn how to play an "infinite game." Teach it to your loved ones tonight, and maybe you'll forget to look at your devices for a few hours, and have some unforgettable fun instead.
