Episode #37: The Princeton Tandem, Part 2: Jason Matthews, Designer of Twilight Struggle

Friends- This episode is part 2 in a short series I'm calling the Princeton Tandem, as I recorded these during a short downtime period during PMUNC 2023. Jason Matthews is one of the finest game designers out there. When Kevin Bertram of Fort Circle Games told me, "I know this guy", I knew I had to reach out for an interview. Twilight Struggle, if you're a history teacher or political science teacher, is THE GAME, no matter what! It's played all over the place, in schools, game clubs, comic stores- you name it. Jason is a great conversationalist, with TS being only part of the conversation. We have a lot of overlap in terms of education, and it was interesting to hear about the lobbyist work, amongst other things, that Jason does for a career. Loved talking to him- I hope you enjoy listening!20 Sided Gamified Listeners- if you’re a fan of this show and want access to 12 exclusive episodes that drop on the 30th of each month- shows that are orchestrated and designed by you, join the game at patreon.com/20SidedGamifiedPodcastLLC  See you there, and don’t forget your dice!https://patreon.com/20SidedGamifiedPodcastLLCAnd, don't forget about our sponsor, BetterHelp!
