Dell and BJ are joined this week by Lupe Soto and Tara Smith of the Women's Poker Association to discuss ways to elevate the game to make it safer, more welcoming, and more fun for everyone. Specifically, they discuss the Raise It Up and Purple Tie Guy programs and how we can foster better environments to bring more women - and people of all stripes - into the game.  https://www.tbstb.com/pod046 for shownotes.
