Play Stupid Games, Find Real Belonging

What does it mean to belong when life takes you across continents, through the military, and into unexpected adventures?

In this episode of Hear Where You Belong, host Dea Irby sits down with Andy Dietrich, first-generation immigrant, U.S. veteran, and author of Play Stupid Games, Win Stupid Prizes. Andy shares his journey from Berlin to Alaska, the Marine Corps to Las Vegas, and the lessons learned along the way.

Through humor, mishaps, and heartfelt reflections, Andy explores how belonging is less about where you are and more about how you show up — in friendships, communities, and even in the middle of mistakes. From military service to fraternity life, from blackjack tables to unexpected wisdom from his mom, Andy reminds us that life’s detours can still lead us home.

If you’ve ever wondered how to turn adventures (and misadventures) into belonging, this episode will make you laugh, think, and see connection in new ways.
