Games are a cornerstone of humanity. From Monopoly to Among Us, families and friends have used competition as a way to come together for centuries.

Did you know that the spirit of games is rich in science?

In episode 17 of Beanie & Blazer Radio, Dr. Mark Guadagnoli introduces a concept called "the Gamification of Life," a concept that turns life's challenges into levels, tribe members into game pieces, and milestones into competitors.

It's a surefire way to find more joy in the seemingly trivial, more competition in the monotony, and more self-confidence in the competition.

We also cover habits and how to reward yourself for a job well done, and how to take yourself less seriously when you bump into the inevitable stumbling blocks.

We hope you enjoy!
