013. fichas: cuban dominoes

carmen & fryda muse on the beloved game of fichas, or cuban dominoes - from the culture, to the lingo, a bit of history, how it's played, and more.

*note (6/4/2022): in this episode, we say that "cuatro mil patos quedaron" (4 thousand ducks remained) is a domino phrase, but to this day we have no idea where that came from. fryda's parents and grandparents confirm that this phrase does not exist. welp!transcript: https://rb.gy/sugok7follow us on social media @teikirisipodjoin us on patreon: https://www.patreon.com/teikirisipod
