Every month, Avery and Drew explore what we play, how we play, and why we play. From board and video games to escape rooms, from cat cafes to fantasy football, we believe that play is powerful. It’s an opportunity to explore power dynamics, practice agency, and discover how we can change the status quo through play. Play’s fulfillment, learning, and connection is what powers us, and that’s what makes it powerful!

History is full of monsters: from Ancient Greece, China, and Scandinavia to Europe’s Gothic Horror and even Sesame Street. But what are these monsters, and how do we play with and through them? What are the Kaiju, gelatinous cubes, and Muppets we invite onto our screens and gaming tables? And what are the monsters inside ourselves? This month, Avery and Drew face their fears and name the monsters that make us all who we are!
