Showcase by Radiotopia did some good podcast episodes about it. https://www.radiotopia.fm/showcase/the-polybius-conspiracy

Aside: Did someone recently change the default Wikipedia page to the Greek figure?

I have a preview image in lemmy (memmy app) as from the urban legend page but it opens to true Greek one.
