Board Gaming With English

This week Dustin interviews Tom Wetzel, the Marketing Coordinator for Thames and Kosmos. We learn about what Tom’s role is at the company, the company's history, and Thames and Kosmos' role in creating educational toys and board games. Tom shares with us his thoughts on how we learn when growing up and the importance of the interactions we get while gaming. The two also dive into Thames & Kosmos’ catalog of products and we get behind-the-scenes information on how the company develops and markets them.
