Radiolab | The Golden Rules | Radiolab Podcast @Radiolabpod | Uploaded May 2023 | Updated October 2024, 21 hours ago.
From the Radiolab podcast: The most vicious — yet righteous — showdown that has ever happened in front of a live audience.
At first glance, Golden Balls was just like all the other game shows — quick-witted host, flashy set, suspenseful music. But underneath all that, each episode asked a very serious question: can you ever really trust another person? Executive producer Andy Rowe explains how the show used a whole lot of money and a simple set of rules to force us to face the fact that being good might not end well.
The result was a show that could shake your faith in humanity — until one mild-mannered fellow unveiled a very unusual strategy, and suddenly, it was a whole new ball game. With help from Nick Corrigan and Ibrahim Hussein, we take a closer look at one of the strangest moments in game show history.
