Sunday Morning Curious

The Sacred Art of the Jigsaw Puzzle (And the Joy of Going Nowhere Fast)

Episode Summary

We dive into the surprisingly rich world of jigsaw puzzles — from their Victorian origins as moral education tools to today's puzzle cafés and competitive puzzlers who can solve 1,000 pieces in under an hour. Discover why this 'pointless' hobby has captured hearts across generations, and how the simple act of fitting pieces together becomes a meditation on patience, persistence, and the pleasure of small victories.
