  <description>How do board games intersect with Orthodox Jewish religious and family life? We discuss how Sabbath observance impacts Alex's work, family life, and board game hobby, and how the Sabbath is defined and practiced for him and his synagogue. Be sure to check out Alex's excellent YouTube channel, BoardGameCo (https://youtube.com/boardgameco).
NEXT EPISODE: We discuss Jane McGonagal's Reality is Broken chapters 1 and 2. We're glad to have you read along with us, but this homework is totally optional and can be ignored!
