143 – Playing with Monopoly Money

Wow--you've won second prize in a beauty contest! Collect $10! [ <-- If this triggers memories of five-hour-long Monopoly games resulting in a flipped table, scattered pieces, and tears--well, you're not alone.] We cover the history of the famous board game Monopoly, game-play basics, and the actual rules of the game [which have you in and out in under an hour, Julia swears]. Later, enjoy a quiz called "Advance to Go, Collect $200"! . . . [Music: 1) YouTube user GBelair, "Monopoly (NES) Music - Title Theme," 2009; 2) Frau Holle, “Ascending Souls,” 2017.
