For this new episode of the podcast, I am joined by Marcelo Peretti Kuhn, Co-Founder of The Dojo, and among other discussion points we demo the atmospheric tabletop roleplaying game Happy Together by French game designer and photographer, Gaël Sacré (the game is available in both French and English).

I had the chance of attending an online session of The Dojo's Full Body Thinking method with Marcelo during the GroupThink Fest event earlier this year, during the lockdown. I loved the way they mix body and mind exercises for strategy and knowledge workers, and reached out to Marcelo to both thank him and ask if he'd be up for a recording - and to ask if he'd up for a game demo too.

I've talking about games, and talking about playing games on the podcast, and this is actually the first time a guest joins me in a short demo of a game - and this is a quirky, very little known one, but seemed like it would perfectly fit the conversation topics revolving around mental and emotional wellbeing, meditation, play, strategy, and more. I hope you enjoy it!
