Planet Money · When designing a GAME, what's in a name? · 22 Jan 2026 podcast

So I'm Yuri Hoste.

My team and I manage all of the international business for Exploding Kittens.

So anything outside of North America.

I have heard of it.

Yes, definitely.

But I'm not so sure about all the other people in Europe.

So that's why we're thinking we might need to switch it up a bit.

Uh-huh.

France, for instance, is definitely more of a card game market and is often looking for a bit more layered and complex rules.

I was rolling my eyes.

Sorry, friends.

Spain and Italy maybe seems more dynamic place.

So, for instance, our Tro Tro Burrito range does better in those markets than many other markets in Europe.

And there are several other markets where it doesn't perform as well yet.

Interesting.

It's funny that you mentioned that because I think within two weeks of us announcing the launch, we were contacted by the Freud Museum asking if they could sell it in their gift shop.

Yeah.

So I think overall our expectations are quite high.

Oh.
