If music  of the 50’s, 60’s & 70’s was & is for Boomers the soundtrack of our lives, then games were our playground.  
Episode 218, BOOMERS & BOARD GAMES, unpacks the period when Monopoly, Clue, Sorry and the like were rolled out regularly in homes & neighborhoods across the US. 
TPC guest, Brian Hersch, creator of popular board games like Outburst, Taboo & Scattergories, as well as 40 some. others, talks about that generation’s affinity toward cards, dice, tokens, currency  &  cardboard paths that unfolded to twice the size of the box, providing the good time that was had by all. 
In the course of that revelation, listeners will also discover a great new experience he now offers as a way to replay the 50’s, 60,s & 70’s- his new trivia-based game, BOOM AGAIN.
It’s another great interview in the 
“Characters of the Chronicles”series. 
Enjoy the chat & take advantage of offer at the end. 
Blessings
