  Speaker 2: Keep changing the roles while you're playing.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: You cannot give your UNO cards to your friend underneath
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: the table.
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: Okay, here's my question for y'all, and it's on the
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: same sort of topic. Okay, when your children are growing
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: up and you're teaching them how to play a game,
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: do you let them win or do you play No.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: One of my favorite memories as a father, we were
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: playing trains.
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: Uh what was it?
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: Ticket to Ride? Great board game. You have to build
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: a train across the country, and they've got several different
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: for Europe and all this other stuff. We're playing, and
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: there's one track where if you put your train down,
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: nobody else can have that train. And I go to
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: put my train down, and I hear little Little Bailey
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: and this it lives rent free in my head and
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: I love it every time. No, Daddy, No, it's the best.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: That's so cunny.
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: That yeah, well, that's that's Kevin. I would be the
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: one to let them, you know, if we did go
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: fish or you know, I wouldn't played the draw four
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: because it would make him cry. Kevin's like draw four
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: ski reverse, like let him learn it, and they would
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: just cry. And I wanted them to feel what it
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: feels like to win, but he was, you know, so
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: they had both.
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: I want them to feel what it feels like to
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: win with someone else.
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: We did it just like you. We did it a
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: little bit when they were early, but after that, no,
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: not at all.
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: Our grandmother Kaki did not. She she did not let
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: us win. She she was a card shark and we
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: played cards with her and she no, you're you're either
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: you win or you lose. You know, when you can
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: get up to my level and me will really celebrate.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: I think a lot of people have problems with games
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: because sometimes it feels like it's over their head, and
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: I think they feel dumb, and they don't want to
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: feel dumb. And because I see that a lot with
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: some games.
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: We don't play Access and Allies in my house. That
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: is that's a World War two, yeah.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: Game, asking for it.
