Eli first met Brendan Boyle when Brendan was his instructor in the undergraduate Product Design program at Stanford, where Brendan has taught for many years. Brendan is also a toy inventor, and one of the assignments in his class was to design a toy—now that Eli has kids, he realizes how bad his toy project was, which made Brendan's justified criticism of his idea that much more bearable. Brendan, however, has a unique gift for retaining the curiosity and playfulness that has made so many of his toy designs successful. We spoke with Brendan about the importance of play in the creative process, testing new toy concepts with kids, how decoupling innovation and metrics can create judgment-free creativity, what's wrong with LEGO today, and the eternal optimism that drives inventors. Find bonus content, a transcript and more on our Substack: https://designbetterpodcast.com/p/brendan-boyle Bio Brendan Boyle is a toy inventor at Fuse London, Adjunct Professor at Stanford University's d.School, and the Founder of the IDEO Play Lab. He believes that play is the key to innovation and has spoken to creative leaders, entrepreneurs, and students about the importance of playful exploration and risk-taking. He founded the Play Lab to uncover kid-centered solutions to the challenge of boredom. As Brendan says, "The opposite of play is boredom." Under his leadership, the Play Lab has invented and licensed hundreds of toys and apps, including the best-selling Jumperoo and Elmo Calls, respectively. Brendan also consults with companies about redesigning their organizational behavior to include space for play, wrote (and teaches) the Design for Play at Stanford's d.School, and co-authored the award-winning encyclopedia of never-before-seen inventions, The Klutz Book of Inventions. *** Premium Episodes on Design Better This is a premium episode on Design Better.

Full Hour | Today, Dom led off the Dom Giordano Program by playing back some clips yesterday from President Trump's trip to a bodega in New York, telling that Democrats have tried framing the attendees as plants paid by the campaign to show support for the Republican candidate. Then, Dom plays back clips from Joe Biden in Scranton, juxtaposing his convoluted storytelling with the love and support Trump was getting in New York. Then, Dom updates the saga of State Representative Kevin Boyle, brother of Brendan Boyle, who still has yet to turn himself in after an issued warrant for a violation of a protection from abuse order. Then, Dom welcomes in Linda McMahon, former President of WWE and Administrator at the Small Business Administration under Trump and current Senior Advisor for America First Works, back onto the Dom Giordano Program to discuss Biden's trip to Scranton, PA where he proposed his new tax bill. First, though, Dom asks Linda to put her hat on as a proponent for women's sports to hear her thoughts on the conversation centered on the gender pay gap. Then, Dom delves into Biden's trip and his driving of the economy into the ground, with Linda using her lengthy experience as a business executive to analyze what can be done to turn around the Country.

Full Hour | Today, Dom led off the Dom Giordano Program by offering his thoughts on Vice President Kamala Harris being the first Vice President or President in history to hold a campaign event from an abortion clinic. Then, Dom offers his thoughts on criticism of Kennedy's potential VP choice, NFL QB Aaron Rodgers, who faces some heat after reports that he, in private conversations, questioned the legitimacy of the Sandy Hook tragedy. Then, Dom offers some updates on the Congressional effort to remove Chinese ownership from the TikTok app, reading back why Philadelphia liberal Brendan Boyle voted against the initiative. Then, Dom welcomes in Oklahoma Superintendent Ryan Walters who's made national headlines after being vocal about the tragic passing of transgendered student Nex Benedict. Walters, who's been labeled as responsible for policies he's enacted in the state of Oklahoma, is now under fire by the husband of Pete Buttigieg. Walters expresses his thoughts and prayers for the family of Benedict, noting the expediency of the Left pushing lies on the story in an effort to create a narrative. Then, Dom asks for the Superintendent's thoughts on the push by Congress to ban TikTok, or at least remove Chinese ownership, which he supports. (Photo by Alexander Drago-Pool/Getty Images)
