First of all thank you all this is a game that is obviously near and dear to my heart

and I like to just be able to see other people one learn, react to it, and take in it.

I'm not sure if you have any background or any information about the Bronx prior to this,

but I think that you hopefully will walk away with the least of interest and curiosity about like you.

This is N.B. N.B stands for non-breaking space, who is explaining their new board game, Cross Bronx Expressway. If you've heard of the cross Bronx Expressway.

If you've heard of the cross Bronx Expressway,

I apologize because you're really likely

spend about an hour in traffic.

I'd heard, or rather I'd seen on discord, that EnB was demoing this game at the MIT Game Lab in Cambridge.

It was at an event I desperately wanted to go to called Games Against Depression and the

MIT Game Lab generously let me come in and see it in action.

The first way that everybody can lose the game is if the city goes bankrupt.

And if you're curious what a game about city planning, Robert Moses, eminent domain in the

South Bronx from 1940 to 2000 looks like, just you wait.

And B, by the way, is anonymous.

And to give full disclosure, this is an episode about board games and civics and game designers and a whole bunch of stuff.

But I gotta say, EnB is a friend of mine.

Hannah's too.

We've played games with them in person on the internet. We talk about games all the time.

So who are we and what are we doing here today?

People who have listened to our show for a long time know a little bit about us personally.

The things we're obsessed with.
