Stephen Callaghan didn’t just open House Rules to sell board games—he created a space where analog play meets neighborhood connection. In this episode, Stephen shares how his obsession with tabletop games turned into a business in the heart of Bishop Arts, how the pandemic fueled a tactile resurgence, and why selling Uno isn’t selling out. We talk about designing for discovery, demystifying “gamer” culture, and what makes a great board game recommendation. Plus, Stephen reflects on parenting, shopkeeping, and how community in Oak Cliff helped make House Rules possible.
