Lizzie Magie - Inventor of the Original "Monopoly"
Did you know that one of the most popular American Board games of all time - MONOPOLY - was actually invented by a Broad?! That right! Lizzie Magie invented THE LANDLORD'S GAME to help teach the concept of Georgism to the masses, and even patented it in 1904, 30 years before the Monopoly patent was filed.  As we dive down the rabbit hole we discover not only more about the incredible multi-hyphenate and radical feminist Lizzie was, but also how her beloved game fell into the hands of Charles Darrow, and ultimately was purchased by the then-struggling Parker Brothers. Did Lizzie ever receive compensation or credit for her invention? You'll have to listen to find out! — A Broad is a woman who lives by her own rules.
