46 | Pigfest: A conversation game

In this somewhat unusual podcast, we'll look at the rules of a game that you should try sometime (if you haven't already). The game centers on the art of conversation. The game is called a “Pigfest”. It’s a game that provides a wonderful opportunity to engage a range of new and unusual ideas with friends. The rules (in short) are: 1. Share a meal with a few friends; 2. Ask everyone to bring along a “truth statement”; 3. Find a mediator to facilitate the conversation; 4. Allocate a set amount of time (10-20 minutes, depending on how much time you have and how many people are there) to discuss each “truth statement.” 5. Practice the art of conversation.
