NOTE: This episode originally aired on the Beyond Solitaire Podcast. It is being reposted here with her kind permission. Jason stopped by Liz's podcast, Beyond Solitaire, to chat about how he uses games in therapy. Games are more than "just games" - they evoke emotions that can be worked with in a therapy setting. Jason breaks all of that down, with Liz reflecting on her own emotional experience with games and gaming.

To continue my content inspired by Black History Month, Dr. Patrick Rael of Bowdoin College joins me to break down the historical background of Freedom: The Underground Railroad. Dr. Rael and I actually did this episode before, in 2017. However, times have changed and we figured we would take a fresh look. We present insights and perspectives that pertain to the past, as well as to today. If you are uncomfortable with cultural and "political" chatter in your board gaming content, you might want to skip this episode. We'll see you on Sunday! Here is my Dice Tower review of Freedom: The Underground Railroad, to give you a sense of basic gameplay. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lb2sg8GJesY ----- Shelf Stories YouTube (with video of this recording) - www.youtube.com/channel/UCnaZ7055IWOdm8XCJfFRDcw __________________________________ YouTube - www.youtube.com/channel/UCrOtGhui_jdLdoQNI7PU4Pg and www.youtube.com/channel/UCPCIkULbgzMEW612cSdUX7Q Discord - discord.gg/p4jX8AF Facebook - www.facebook.com/onestopcoopshop Donate to One Stop Co-op Shop - www.patreon.com/onestop Email - onestopcoopshop@gmail.com
