There’s so many versions of Monopoly these days. Which one is the original? London? No. Atlantic City? Uh uh. The original had property names like ‘Poverty Place’ and ‘La Swell Hotel’ and was designed as an anti-Capitalist game.


Our guest to tell the story of Lizzie Magie, the real inventor of the game we now know as Monopoly, is David Parlett a games historian and inventor.


And don’t all rush off to play Monopoly at the end because we’ve got a special update to one of our previous episodes.


After news that US scientists had made a breakthrough in Nuclear Fusion Power we got Arthur Turrell, author of The Starbuilders, back on to update us on what’s happened.


If you’ve not listened to our amazing episode all about the race to conquer Nuclear Fusion Power then go back to October and check it out.
