Monopoly Lied To You!
Manage episode 359236478 series 3340769
It doesn't matter if you're the car, the top hat or the dog, Monopoly told you porkies! I know, right?!? This week the lads chat to Mary Pilon, journalist with The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal and author of "The Monopolists: Obsession, Fury, and the Scandal Behind the World's Favourite Board Game". It turns out we need to know about who really invented Monopoly and why her contribution was airbrushed out of the story!
As they're in the realms of games, Neil has arranged a special bonus guest to fire out fact bombs for Part 1. That's right, the host of the most iconic UK gameshow of all time, Countdown, joins them. It's the one and only Colin Murray!
Don't forget our live show tickets are going fast! Pick them up here:
