Jumping Into The Game (ft. Gabe Barrett, Board Game Design Lab)

In this episode I welcome Gabe Barrett. Gabe is a game designer and founder of the Board Game Design Lab. Board Game Design Lab was built as a community to help people design great games, featuring a wide collection of articles and over 280 podcast episodes on all aspects of board game design and publishing. Gabe is also the author of eight books, and currently lives in Honduras with his wife, Brandy, and their four kids. He shares about their adoption story, designing and playing games with his kids, and cultural lessons from his time in Honduras. And as always, lots of inspiring words.
