A personal Investigation Into the Tasmanian Devil tattoo, and other stories.

Decoder Ring is a podcast about cracking cultural mysteries. Every episode, host Willa Paskin takes on a cultural question, object, idea, or habit and speaks with experts, historians, and obsessives to try and figure out where it comes from, what it means, and why it matters.

On this episode, Decoder Ring senior producer Benjamin Frisch takes us through four stories about tattoos and the effects of time. First, a look into a collection of 300 preserved tattooed skins from the 19th century, then a personal investigation into the Tasmanian Devil tattoo, a profile of a man so devoted to Microsoft he got multiple Zune tattoos, and finally a look into why Chinese character tattoos are so often mistranslated.
