About this event
99% Invisible and WBUR’s Endless Thread team up for Hidden Levels , a six-part series about how video games left the arcade and started reshaping the real world. These stories go beyond high scores and consoles, tracing how a joystick became the bridge between people and machines, how a Chicago basketball game turned into a cultural phenomenon, and how the Army built its own first-person shooter to reach new recruits.
The main series runs across both podcast feeds, with extra “side quest” episodes on Endless Thread. Whether you are a lifelong gamer or have never picked up a controller, Hidden Levels uncovers how games have quietly changed culture, technology, and the way we see the world.
Hidden Levels was created by Ben Brock Johnson and hosted by Roman Mars and Ben Brock Johnson. You can find Hidden Levels here or in the 99% Invisible and the Endless Thread feed on SiriusXM, Pandora, or wherever you get your podcasts.
