The Secret Life of Jigsaw Puzzlers

from Sunday Morning Curious · host Podcaster

Why do millions of people voluntarily scatter thousands of tiny pieces across their dining tables, only to painstakingly put them back together again? We explore the meditative world of jigsaw puzzles — from their surprising origins as educational tools for aristocratic children to the underground community of competitive puzzlers who can assemble 1000 pieces in under six hours. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.
