In this episode with Elan Lee, you’ll get a behind-the-scenes look at one of the most creative minds in the world of game design—and walk away with some unexpected life lessons along the way. You’ll hear how Elan went from crafting movie special effects and pioneering the Xbox to co-creating Exploding Kittens, a wildly successful card game that started with nothing more than a Sharpie and a deck of poker cards on a beach in Hawaii.

Whether you’re a parent looking for better ways to connect with your kids, a creative chasing your next big idea, or just someone who loves a good origin story with a dose of humor and heart, you won't want to miss this conversation.
