On this week's Filling the Void, Lesley chats with director Michael Showalter on his word puzzle hobby. From the New York Times Spelling Bee to the Wordle/Quordle/Octordle universe, Showalter describes how one word game spiraled into a daily obsession featuring pen and paper, online community forums, and a photoshopped image of Mickey Rourke on a Billy Joel album cover. To talk to Lesley about your hobby, you can email the podcast at fillthevoidpod@gmail.com. Filling the Voiding is part of the Earios Network. This episode is produced, engineered, and edited by Alex Paul. Theme music by Michael Cassidy.
