\n

While we’re working on new episodes of Underunderstood, we thought we’d share an episode of another podcast we love: Endless Thread. It’s a show that brings Reddit to life by tracking down its strangest, most compelling stories, and talking to the folks involved in those stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This episode<\/a> is about an old dice game called The Deadly Double. In order to find the origins of the game, Amory Sivertson and Ben Brock Johnson fall into a series of rabbit holes, including an enormous dice collection, a former FBI agent, and a Pearl Harbor conspiracy theory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Endless Thread<\/a> is a podcast from WBUR and Reddit. You can listen and subscribe on Apple Podcasts<\/a>, Spotify<\/a>, or anywhere else you listen to podcasts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
