A Different Slant 086: Holiday Bingo

Host John Flavin shares how to play Holiday Bingo, a game derived from John’s reading of the book Quiet, The Power of Introverts in a World That Can’t Stop Talking by Susan Cain and of the Wall Street Journal article on Dysfunctional Family Bingo.  The game is played like bingo but, instead of numbers in the squares, there are short descriptions of annoying things commonly observed at holiday parties, like adult sweaters with Disney characters on them.  John suggests the game is best played by several people but warns of the dangers from both the party host and/or your partner of not keeping the contest confidential.
