This is aorfai. I'm a steep. Hold on.
Alright, sorry. Save your class for the end, please.
Save, sorry. I should have said this up top. Save all. Save your class for the end, please. Save.
Save.
Sorry.
I should have said this up top.
Save all your laughs and claps for the end.
My name is Adolfiim.
I'm sorry.
I have a question.
Yeah.
When you say the end, do you mean the end of the night or the end of your set?
Are you making an announcement for all the rest of the comics?
Because I'm going up later.
Oh, I didn't know there was more comics.
Well, let's save all the left-winged applause for the end of my set.
You, I'm sorry.
You thought this was a five-minute show?
Yeah.
Okay.
Woo!
So, hold on, save that for later,
unless there's an emergency.
So, let's see here.
What, yeah.
This is another question.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You really thought you were gonna come up
and do five minutes and everyone in this big audience
was just gonna leave the comedy club?
Yeah. Why did you think that?
I because here's the thing every time I do an open mic or a stand-up set and then I leave I assume
everyone else has ceased to exist. So when I leave the stage this whole room stops existing.
Oh. Do you really?
But I see a lizard light huh? Oh shit.
What are you gonna say?
Oh, I said, do you realize that if we hadn't been interrupting
and we would have gotten to hear him do some stand-up comedy?
Well, it's just about to get into my joke about lizards.
Yeah, I've never seen a lizard.
What I think is going on here is that he's crazy, right?
I mean, that's the lizard.
I've seen a lizard.
That seems to me.
Oh, you've seen a lizard, man.
What kind of lizard have you seen? A long one. I think that seems to me. Oh, you've seen a lizard, man. What kind of lizard have you seen a long one?
I think that's a snake. Oh never mind. Anyway, that's my time. Have a good night. That's that's all our times
We've been the three-person comedy team
You're part of it. You're part of the team. I think we did a good job back there. Oh you clapping for it
Can we go to an open mic and one of us us is on stage and the other two are in the audience
and we do a trio, uh, stand-up routine.
Where it's all, it's not even crowd work.
It's just interrupting.
Yeah, it's like a heckle, it's like a heckle, a question,
and it's all planned.
I love that.
We'll call it heckle and hide.
Okay.
And speaking of heckle and hide, I'm stand-up at Orphan.
I'm the stand-up comedian, GPC. And I'm a heckler, I'm Santa Pat Orfay. I'm the stand up comedian, GPC.
And I'm a heckler, Aaron Keve.
Mmm.
And welcome to another episode of Hey Riddle Riddle,
a podcast where three friends try and solve riddles.
No, nope, nope, nope.
And solve riddles.
We said no.
Riddles?
No.
Ah, boy.
If you're not my friends,
then why do I feel so good whenever you're around.
It's gonna be that tough guy.
No, it was a really hard moment for me this weekend.
What's that?
I was sitting in the little movie theater with my little butt in the movie seat, and I was
watching the movie The Bat Man, and I looked up at the riddler and I said, sort of sucks
that I have the same job as this guy.
I have more in common with the riddler than I do with a fireman in terms of what we do every day. So it just made me feel kind of bad and sad.
I saw the Batman as well. And I agree with you, Aaron. There was as he was doing riddles,
I thought in my head, this sucks. And then I thought, that's the same thing I do every
week. And him and I both have 500 followers
on social media and we both hate the Batman.
James have you seen this movie yet?
Here's my thing.
Here's my thing about the redler.
Do you think that he would have been doing all those crimes if he could have just had a
fun podcast?
Yes.
It's sort of the same thing, isn't it though?
But the end of the day. The damage we do to the world is,
what are the same?
Did they have podcasts in Batman Universe in Gotham City?
I think so.
It looks a lot like Chicago.
It's shot in Chicago.
So I'm sure there's a flourishing comedy scene.
Well, I asked about podcasts.
That was about God.
I know, but it's a pipeline.
There's a scene in the Batman where Alfred is doing a podcast.
Yeah.
Wow.
It goes the deal, like, the thing about females and then they cut away.
Yeah.
Yeah, Alfred's from a different time.
He's an old guy.
He's from a different time.
His podcast is called Incellents and, yeah, it's a lot of ranting about women. Oh God. Well, I mean
Alfred's lived a hard life. So let's let's give Alfred a break. Okay, you gotta take care of that shit nose
Not those little brat kid. Yeah
Terablaid that being a brat is just about correct
Yeah, I mean, I grew up with rich kids. A brat is just kind of expected.
You're surprised and delighted if they're not.
Right.
And actually, Aaron, I don't know if you know this.
JPC and I actually wrote a little script in film,
just a very quick 30-second audio for you.
It's called The Bratman.
And it's kind of our take on The Batman,
but if he was a little more leaning into his sort of
well-to-do upbringing and just his, you know, his
insolence and his sort of bullshit attitude. JPC, do you want to play that to the Batman audio?
Absolutely.
Cowabunga, dude.
Oh, hold on. Hold on. Hold on.
Oh, you know what? This is the other one that we did.
Okay, you're ready?
This is the Batman.
Okay.
No, for the Batman.
And who's the Batman who played it? Addle. Okay, here we go. Bradman. And who's the Bradman who played it?
Addle.
Okay, here we go.
Addle.
Hold on, Addle.
I played Addle.
Addle.
Directed.
JPC.
Doing the Bradman.
And play.
Okay, so JPC, don't forget your motivation is your brat and you have a deep, you're using
like a deeper register voice.
Okay.
Why do you keep hitting yourself? Why do you keep hitting yourself? using like a deeper register voice. Okay. Mm.
Why do you keep hitting yourself? Why do you keep hitting yourself?
Okay, but maybe say like stop hitting yourself.
Cause that's what kids say.
They say stop hitting yourself, stop hitting yourself.
Yeah, but don't I wanna know why?
Ah, alright.
I, investigating the human condition,
don't I want to know why?
And knock knock, hey Adel, I know you already put the cast list up.
Don't look in LA.
I do, I do.
I just wanted to roll my hat.
Aaron, what are you doing in here?
We're naked.
I just wanted to throw my hat into the ring and try to out.
Get out of here!
We're naked, get out of here!
Oh, no.
They're calling me.
Oh, no.
They're calling me.
Oh, God, they're calling.
Oh, they're, they're bad signals in this guy.
Come on, are you freaking serious?
Huh?
Why are you talking like that?
Oh my god, let me be a part of your movie.
Oh.
And okay, stop the audio.
So Aaron, I guess you actually heard that audio in real time.
What it was called, the conversation.
Yeah.
And are you upset that I didn't cast you?
No, I got over it.
I cried the whole way there all way back
So I feel like a kind of process. I feel like I'm owed an apology because I was naked and
I was very vulnerable doing my part man
Batman Batman doing what?
Anyway, podcast is hey riddle riddle the riddles are easy
The laughs are sleazy
We like to make it as we like it come and come and as we get it going and
Everything we do on this podcast is all improvised baby with three friends. We're all going crazy and we're doing riddles
I actually brought these bits from home
Okay, why both the puzzles I will do will do it. Are you a young man?
Solve these.
Jesus Christ.
I give me a reddle.
Just shut up and give me a reddle.
Just shut up.
Adal is my young word.
Burt word.
Okay, are you guys ready for a little segment
on the podcast that I used to call?
I think we've done this one before.
Yeah, I love these.
I'm ready.
I'm calling it.
I think we've done this one before. So that way, people don't have to tell me that we've done this one before. Yeah, I love these. I'm ready. I'm calling it, I think we've done this one before.
So that way, people don't have to tell me
that we've done this before.
I do think that we have.
We have to start protecting ourselves.
Yes.
Um, this, these riddles come from,
or I'm sorry, this riddle comes from Joe.
Joe poses this question.
What does it come in one syllable, five letter word that has the following
unique property? When you remove the first letter, the remaining letters form a
homophone of the original word. Replace the first letter and remove the second
letter and the result is yet another homophone of the original word. What is that
word? Oh sorry, yeah I'm not mentally warmed up because we were doing like
Bartman jokes. So I don't think my brain can process this.
We did again and I'm writing it down.
Okay, so, so just in just for clarity, not for you too, because you two pretty sharp
tax and you're in the shed with all these sharp tools, but just for the listeners,
the layman who may be listening at home, a homophone is a word that is pronounced the same,
but spelled differently.
Cool, different words, can be like crab and crab.
Like hair and hair.
Oh, two more please.
Sauce and sauce.
They're there.
Yeah, if you just repeat anywhere twice, it works.
Like children, children.
Like boink and boink. Like, boyk and boyk.
Like, blue man group and blue man group.
And, blown man group.
Yeah.
Did we do a sketch about blown man group?
It is my favorite thing we've ever done on the show.
Ah, Addle, we're repeating riddles, not scenes.
We're trying our best not to do this series twice.
We'll do the riddles three, four times.
Okay, so it's a common five syllable,
I'm sorry, five, it's a common five syllable word.
The riddle changing, it's evolving, Aaron.
It's evolving.
Oh no, it has a clause, it has a clause now.
It's a common one syllable, five letter word
that has the follow a unique property.
When you remove the first letter,
it forms a homophone of the original word.
So it'll be a four letter word that's a homophone of the five letter word.
So we have to assume, Aaron, that the first letter is a sign letter.
That's a really great assumption.
Yeah, like a phone, but not a phone.
Or if you replace the first letter and remove the second letter, it's yet another homophone.
Hmm.
What's that last part? If you remove the second letter, it's yet another homophone. What's that last part if you remove the second letter?
So basically, it's a five letter word.
If you remove the first letter, it's a homophone.
If you remove the second letter, it's a homophone.
But not at the same time.
So first letter gone, homophone, instead, second letter gone, homophone.
Nice.
Nice. So I think you were really on to something
with the silent letter.
That's not nice.
It is not nice because I don't know what a,
it's because then it's just cut.
It's not a canife.
This is a canife.
No, it's not.
It's not nice.
OK, can you let us know what that first letter is,
the silent letter?
Is it P? P or K? It is not P. OK. It's not P and it's not nice. Okay, can you let us know what that first letter is, the silent letter? Is it P?
P or K?
It is not P.
Oh, okay.
It's not P and it's not K.
I feel like I could, but I feel like that would,
that's a pretty big clue, right?
T.
It's not T.
Aaron, it is not T.
S.
Aaron, it is not T.
I don't want to give you what it is.
Yeah, it's S.
It is, it's S. It's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's Do you want to do you want a clue? Yes, please. I think I think this is right.

Drink a martini and watch a YouTube video about scunks.
That's a detail that's too real to be made up.
Drink a martini and watch a YouTube video about scunks.
I do want to see you seeing Aaron.
Hold on, this is, but that's a detail that's too real
to be made up.
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah,
I'll just be promised we wouldn't say anything from each other's life
Okay, okay
Then we won't see you see me won't say no, I want to see the scene okay Aaron. I want to see a scene
You are drinking martini getting drunk and you are watching a video about skunks
Oh my god come here come here the smell does not come out from their actual butt
Oh my god oh my god look at him
waddling along baby you don't need to narrate it I'm just asking you to look at
what I'm learning from the TV apologies I thought I thought you were dating
David Attenborough for a reason but fuck me I guess I guess it's just for the
sex huh babe it is I you think I just care about you from your work you're such a hot body
And here we see the North American Erin Keith
Oh okay here we go
In her victorious secret lingerie
Oh okay it's actually sexy not a fight
Watch as she postures to attract males in her location
I'm supposed to be working out right now. See? The perfect scene.
The perfect crime.
In November, leave it at work.
Leave it at work.
Turn it off.
Okay, so Avi writes, after watching the news, Susie calls her husband Kevin.
Susie asks Kevin where he is, and he says, at work.
Very soon after, Susie divorces Kevin and
takes everything even canoe dog.
So we know this was it.
Is it?
Yeah, late 2018.
Why did Susie divorce Kevin?
She saw him on the news kissing someone on New Year's Eve.
Susie was at home alone on New Year's Eve watching her husband kiss someone on the
news.
Well, she just turned off her video about skunks and was pouring herself another martini.
I don't know the specifics here, but I'm kind of on Kevin's side.
All right.
Okay.
All right.
So can you read it again?
Because I feel like I'm missing a detail.
After watching the news, Suzy calls her husband Kevin, Suzy asked Kevin where he is and
he says at work very soon after Suzy divoroulser has been Kevin, Suzy asked Kevin where he is and he says, at work.
Very soon after Suzy divorces Kevin and takes everything even canoe doll.
He's a newsman and he wasn't there.
That's a really good answer to the riddle, Aaron, and I think it works.
And I think it's also less sad than what is the real answer to the riddle.
But here's the thing, if he's a newsman,
he's not picking up the phone, right?
Yeah.
Oh, he's a weatherman.
And during his weather segment, he said,
there's a 78% chance of divorce.
Yeah.
Coming in from the West.
And she says, where are you?
And he says, that's not working.
I would like to see a seed.
Adal, you are a weatherman.
And you are trying to be sort of passive aggressive in your,
what do they call it?
Presentation.
You're your presentation.
Forcax as well.
You're trying to break up with the lead newscaster, which is you, JBC, and you can sort of interject.
Okay.
All right.
And the murderer still remains free to this very day.
Now we're going to go to weather.
Doug, tell us what's going on this week in weather.
Thanks, you piece of shit.
So we are having a lot of precipitation coming in.
I'm sorry, we're having a little telepropter, a snafu over, excuse the color for language
of the studio.
Doug, go ahead and tell us the weather, please.
Well, if it's the language is colorful,
as long as I'm getting excitement from somewhere.
So a lot of cold fronts coming in,
just exceedingly cold fronts,
just like no, just like cold fronts,
cold backs, cold bottoms, cold sheets, cold bed.
Doug, Doug, what's, how cold are we talking about giving? We are talking
frigid, okay? There's not a lot of action going on this week, especially in this
exact area right here, which is my bedroom on the map. We also see that it is
going to be about 102 degrees because someone's taking that they're sick so they
don't have to have sex with me. Oh, okay, well, a lot of fun back there, Doug.
I think I would like to just say we hooked up.
I don't know that there was an expectation of anything more than the one night that we
spent together.
A lot of hot wind coming in from the west Which is where you're sitting and can pay us into me guys. Today's been a historic day in sports
Guys how how is it a historic day in sports if there's any murderers listening today?
Go ahead and go to Doug's house. I think that that would be a nice paying dog a visit
We can't catch you. We obviously know we can't catch you. You're still at large
I'd like to report a murder someone already murdered my love life That would be a nice paying dog a visit. Well, we can't catch you. We obviously know we can't catch you. You're still at large.
I'd like to report a murder.
Someone already murdered my love life.
Mm.
In speaking of that, I just realized that perhaps a newscaster
that I was sleeping with has gotten to third base
with the weather van.
Third base, I mean, come on, give me some credit.
Oh, you can go home.
First of all, are you serious?
You still don't understand how hook up culture works.
Where none of us are exclusive.
You told me you were in love with me and you were going to buy me a cottage by the sea.
Where, young, we're on the news.
We fuck, get used to it.
And I'm being told we're canceled.
Oh yeah, yeah.
We're young, we're hot, we're fucking get used to it.
Have you guys seen local news lately?
No.
That is totally the vibe.
I don't think I've ever seen any local news team where I wasn't like, okay.
I'm sleeping with you.
I think it's a very insesctuous community. Yeah
What you know teach their own if you work in news, please let me know if I'm right
Yeah, please let me know are the newsies fuck good Aaron would kill if the newsies were fucking love to know that
You guys did not get the answer to this riddle
Oh, okay, so I'm she sees
Him ignore a call from her
He's on the news and he ignores a call. He all right, so I love the direction that you're going he is not on the news
Hmm
He's not but watch but watching the news is important. It is important that she has watching the news. There's a sketch of him
is important. It is important that she has watching the news.
There's a sketch of him.
And remember, she says, where are you?
And he says at work.
And then she divorces him.
Something about where he works is bad.
And she saw that in the news.
Yes.
Oh, that he's, oh, is his like company going under?
And he's, he's losing all of his money. Uh, yeah, that would make her, uh, smart.
It's very smart. Yeah, get rid of it.
Okay, here's from one married person to a, an entire world.
If you're significant other is going through a hard time,
say they're losing their job, divorce.
Um, sorry.
I, this is a good time to plug.
I have a single that's dropping this week called dump your
poor boyfriend. Um, it is very catchy. It's a near worm. I think you're interesting.
You call it a single. Yeah. Exactly. Uh, uh, uh, Dr. Freud, your penis is calling my dad,
little Freudian nip there, I'm afraid in the slip there. Sorry. Uh, so you are right. That
it's something to do with where he works. I will also say it's something very specific to the day
that she is watching the news.
Oh, she's called him on April Fools.
Christmas.
No, it's not.
Thank you, thanks.
I would say it's like a way Saturday for people.
Ah, way Saturday, Labor Day.
No, no, not even really a holiday, I would say.
I would say maybe like a tragic day.
9-11?
Yeah.
No.
Yes.
Oh, she was watching the news on 9-11.
He said I'm at work, but the towers had collapsed.
Yes, and she knew he wasn't at work
because of where he was and she fell out.
But, Q, did you just read a 9-11,
riddle on our riddle comedy podcast?
I know, I know, I know, Aaron.
It's coming out in March.
It's not, it's, I'm six months early
with my 9-11, but in fairness.
JP, so fly on Twitter.
This was submitted in October.
Aaron, first of all, you gotta be the since test of 9-11.
We've had a 9-11 every day for the past two years.
So it's nothing for us anymore.
And I've listened to 3.11 every day for the last five years.
JP so fly on Twitter.
If you want to let JPC how you know how you feel about that.
I will say, please come at me on Twitter.
I don't go on Twitter anymore.

Are you ready for your next riddle? Yes sir. This next riddle is from AW.
AW writes, hey guys.
Oh, now I'm craving root beer great.
I want a crate of root beer.
I have a sick ready for Yalthus Kadeon.
I didn't make this up. I stole it from a professor latent game.
I played when I was 13 years old.
I've never played this professor latent games.
I played several and they are a god damn blast.
They are very, very fun.
Okay, so here we have a riddle from a professor in late- and game.
Here we go.
There once was an incredibly lazy man who wanted to go about his day
without ever leaving his armchair.
Honestly, this kind of sounds like the character
that Aaron was playing when she was watching the scucks
in Martini's thing.
Yeah, character.
Character I was playing.
Yeah.
Hi, I mean, I, I, okay, could I just tell the truth?
I actually recently did drink a margarita
and watch a YouTube video about squirrels,
so I just spludged some of the details.
Wow.
Just enough, just enough to obfuscate,
so we wouldn't figure out that it was about your life.
Yeah, but that's quite a lot of fun.
Just so you know, like, I'm not a martini. No, thank you.
I'm a martini and skunk girl. I wish. Are you kidding? That girl is like rich on Wall Street.
I'm a margarita and squirrels.
Aaron is a margarita and squirrel. The sheets martini and skunk.
Let me know what you are.
She stinks. I'm so glad Twitter.
So there was a incredibly lazy man who wanted to go out to stay without ever leaving his
armchair.
I don't think too hard about this man's bodily functions.
I promise it isn't part of the riddle.
His chair could rotate 360 degrees so he could look in every direction and had an articulated
mechanical grabbing stick that was long enough to reach anywhere in the room.
And he could even take books
He could even take books out of the bookshelf and vacuum under the furniture
So one day he couldn't find his TV remote and he realized that it was located in the one and only place in the room
That he couldn't reach without leaving his armchair where was the remote?
I'm gonna count
What under that couch it even says he has a grabbing stick that can get
under the furniture.
So he could have gotten it.
And ceiling, let's assume that the grabbing stick
can hit the ceiling as well.
Darling is back.
Under the furniture.
In the center of his back.
Can you reach that?
Right.
I can't reach the center of my back.
And it's the dirtiest part of my life.
Oh, yeah, of course.
Was it in the mailbox?
No, but let's assume that the grabbing stick can get the center of his back.
So it's not like on his person.
This is the only place in the room he couldn't reach without leaving his armchair.
I have some hints.
It's in a drawer.
That's a really great guess.
Let's say that there are no drawers, just bookshelves.
Oh, he's free-balling it.
It's inside of a book.
Behind the bookshelf.
Do you want some hints?
Yes.
It was not underneath any furniture.
He could not see it, but somehow he still knew it was there, in the type of cherries
that doesn't really matter.
He could not see it. He could not see it, but somehow he knew it was still there. And the type of cherries in doesn't really matter. He could not see it. He could not see it. But somehow I knew it was still there.
It's in his, this in his belly. It's in. Oh, the man ate the remote.
It's in the fridge. He put it in the fridge.
In the TV, it's like by the TV. No, there's nothing. Okay, let's assume that the room
has like bookshelves, but there's no drawers or anything that's closed on those
safes or anything. There's so many open variables to this question.
What? No. So it's in the only place, there's what?
Only place in the room that he couldn't reach
without leaving his chair.
Okay.
Only place outside.
He's sitting on it.
Upstairs.
Aaron!
How was it on this?
He's sitting on it.
I'm pretty sure he said that first.
I mean, can I say, I've said on a remote before and I did not have to get up to get it? Well, I mean, depending on it. I'm quite sure I said that first. I mean, can I say I've said on a remote before
and I did not have to get up to get it?
Well, I mean, depending on it,
you have to get up a little bit
unless you're going to just...
No.
Eric, okay.
I gotta see a seed.
I gotta see a seed.
Addle, you are a man who is sitting on a remote.
Aaron and I are in the room.
We also know that you're sitting on the remote
and we're just saying, you know,
get up so we can get the remote and you've got your own way of doing it
My sister just called me. She's on the news. I changed it to channel seven
Well, sorry. What is she on the news for she's doing something amazing?
Hurry, it's a new
Wait, just channel seven. Gary don't change it Gary calm down. All right Karen
It sounds like you're making this up. She's doing something amazing
So I used to be an impressive we're not watching anything amazing right now
We're watching you're literally watching the amazing race. So do not comment me
You're sitting on the remote can you just get up? I am sitting on the remote because it helps with my posture. How? Matt how? Well
The way this remote was constructed. Please! She's on the news!
You just got on her for saying it's something exciting and that I asked you how and you said the way it's constructed
Very slowly everyone knows if you talk slowly someone will interrupt you and you never have to it's constructed very slowly. Everyone knows if you talk slowly,
someone will interrupt you
and you never have to finish what you're saying.
The perfect crime.
We've probably missed it.
Come up, please just change it.
Just get up, just get up and let us have the remote.
Okay, so here's what we have to do.
The two of you have to grab either end of the couch.
Now, what you're going to do is pretend I'm an egg
and a skillet and you're going to pull forward
and then back very quickly.
That's gonna cause me to pop in the air.
The remote will come free, fall on the floor,
I'll plop right back down without having to do any work at all.
And then you can grab the remote.
I gotta text the toaster.
It's over, it's over.
She's not on the news anymore, you ruined everything.
Oh, well, I guess this all worked out then.
Can I know what she was doing? Something amazing!
See quick she's doing something. I literally couldn't think of anything that someone would be doing
on TV. Aaron we now have to create a one-woman show for you called something amazing. Yeah and
it just a thing. We have we we dear listeners have something amazing that Yeah, and it's just a thing. Sitting in a big couch, not like that.
We have, we, dear listeners, have something amazing

Thank you for writing in RJ.
RJ says, this is an untapped, riddled resource.
Been listening since episode one, finally decided
to send in some warm ups.
I heard your worries about finding more riddles
for your next 100 episodes.
By the way, we're well past that this point.
Did you ever, I know you two haven't lived
in Chicago your whole lives,
but there used to be a place called RJ Boors, I think.
Do you remember having a real place?
RJ Grunts, RJ Boors.
I was at RJ Grunts.
RJ was RJ Grunts, but there was always a commercial that was RJ Grunts, RJ Bores, RJ Grunts.
But there's always a commercial that was like, better make it RJ, better make it RJ, better
make it RJ Bores.
What?
Do you remember that?
Am I making that up?
I don't know.
I can't remember if it's grunt or boars.
Look, I don't think I've seen a commercial in like 12 years.
That's fair.
Yeah, true.
Well, anyway, RJ, right back into the show, let us know, was it Grunter George?
Uh, RJ says, these riddles are translated from Spanish ones I found.
I swear they rhyme in Spanish, but some things get lost in translation.
Ha ha.
Don't worry.
Yes, exactly.
Uh, okay.
And, um, here we go.
I'm in the sea, but I don't get wet.
I'm in the coals, but don't get burned.
I'm in the sky, but I never fall, Adele, and I'm also on your lips, but not on your tongue.
Can I just say every single time I go to Coals department store, I get burned because I'm
like, is this sweater a seven, five percent off?
And they're like that sale in the yesterday
I'm like you fucking burn me. Yeah, that's all the good things

Okay, so here's your next one.
Okay.
Everyone passes by me, but I never pass anyone
Everyone asks where to find me and I never ask about anyone
Waldo shitting is it Waldo shitting?
Like an adult wears Waldo I have toed up. I have to see a scene. I have to see a scene
Aaron you're gonna be just a person existing in the world and you've stumbled on a person in
You know full public. It's a crowded public area
And they're dressed as walled out and they're literally appear to be taking a shit. I don't use that person great
Hey, I found you, oh my god.
Oh, sorry, I'm busy. Close the door. Close the door, please.
What door, sir?
The, the, the proverbial door.
To look to your left and look to your right, you were at a company picnic.
One of us will die.
Oh, I'm just used to people saying look to your left, look to your right, one of you will die.
You're sir!
Sir!
Yes, yes, what?
Yeah, are you're here for the company picnic, yes?
Yes, and there is no portapoddy, so I thought to just use when nature calls, use nature,
that's why they say nature calls.
We have full bathroom, sir.
What?
There's a man that looks just like you over there, but not quite.
Isn't that kind of funny? And then there's a man that looks just like you over there, but not quite. Isn't that kind of funny?
And then there's a wizard.
Well, okay, I guess he's some sort of a magician for the part.
Can you hear the only person here who could be crazy?
Excuse me, just because I'm wearing a knit hat and a sweater with red and white stripes
does not constitute crazy.
Sir, you shouldn't publicly what?
Can you hook under my arms and carry me to the full bathroom's please?
Uh yeah, oh wait shoot now I can't find you.
You're in front of a barber hall.
Oh god where are you?
You joking.
Hello.
Come on, I'm right next to the ceiling.
I'm right next to that zebra.
Come on.
Well no, that's not it'm right next to that zebra. Come on. Oh, no.
That's not it.
That's a candy cane.
No, I'm right here.
Follow this smell of shit.
That never out to me before.
See?
See.
See.
Nick Mestead was a comedian who was in Chicago at the same time
as us.
He's hysterically funny, and you should follow him.
But he posted a video recently, which was like the audible audio book of Where's Waldo.
And it is such a fucking funny bit.
That's great.
Can't recommend it enough.
He's great.
He looks like a very handsome French steward.
Everyone passes by me, but I never pass anyone.
Everyone asks where to find me, and I never ask about anyone.
I mean, I do think that I did it in the bathroom kind of does work.
I think a lot of things kind of work for this.
So I'm tempted to just kind of give it to you with bathroom.
Can you read it one more time?
Everyone passes by me, but I never pass anyone.
Everyone, Pat, hold on.
Everyone passes by me. But I never pass anyone. Everyone Pat, hold on, everyone passes by me.
But I never pass anyone.
So it's something stationary.
Yes. Okay. Everyone asks where to find me,
and I never ask about anyone.
That could be a statue that could be the fucking Mass and Square Garden,
that could be a lamp post, that could be a rock.
There's one, there's a lot of answers to this.
There's one I think a good answer to this,, there's a lot of answers to this. There's one I think a good answer to this,
but there's a lot of answers to this.
Yeah.
Because no one's gonna ask where to find a rock.
Excuse me, do you know where I could find a rock?
Like a rock that no one cares about.
Just one rock on the ground.
Has the rock asked about me?
I don't know.
What's the official answer?
If you were a stranger in a strange city
and you were trying to navigate around.
A favorite book.
What might you ask someone about?
Directions.
Yes, to a...
Place.
Place.
Yeah, placed on a...
Street.
Map.
Yeah, the answer is the street.
But yes, a lot of these things.
The bathroom, I think, works fine.
Not after I'm done with it.
I break toilets.
I like to see a scene.
Thanks.
Adel, you are a tourist in a city asking JPC for directions.

Gemma's stepfather is Swiss.
Very, very kind, cool dude named Willie.
He's Swiss.
And every time we hang around him, he always says,
exact them all.
Oh, I like that.
It's crept into my daily life.
We're around the house.
Gemma will ask for something or she'd be like,
is this the right thing you're looking for?
And I'll go, exact them all.
It's very, but he says it sincerely.
I say it jokingly.
I think it's a very fun, it's a good word.
That's just another good word.
All right, let's do one more.
Yes.
It's been in the ocean for centuries,
yet it never learned to swim.
The Titanic.
Coral.
Centuries.
Centuries.
Centuries, this guy thinks that it's been a notion.
Coral, they're learning to swim. It's been in the ocean for centuries, Centuries centuries this guy thinks that it expanded land to shit coral
They're learning to swim. It's been in the ocean for centuries, but it never learned to swim
Uh
Starfish oh
$3
$3,000 addle you are on the right track, but that word is a little long for what this and
Sandy huh sand what does that make me think of?
JPC and Aaron. I don't know if this is at your place as well, but my studio here at my house just
got my toes are wet. My feet are all wet. I feel like there's there's little grains of sand
everywhere. Is that happening at your places? Yeah. Inside of my closet is like a white sand beach
and I'm holding a my tile of a sudden I have a my tie to and a big oversized
And
I just just normal you guys have
We couldn't afford all three JPC we couldn't I mean okay, okay, I see sand is here. That's that's different.
Yeah, I'm here.
I've been drinking my ties this whole time.
Sandy, welcome back.
It's been long overdue.
We're all happy.
Yeah, it's been long overdue.
Sandy, thank you for holding onto that piece of driftwood
and coming back to shore for us.
It's not a problem.
Great to be here.
Good to see you all of you.
Anything happened in the last couple of years since I've been gone? Nope. Nope, nothing. You're not. No people have meant to be here. Good to see you all of you. Anything happened in the last couple of years since I've been gone. Nope. Nope. Nothing.
You're not people who have answered. Catch you up on.
See anything going on with you in the last couple of years? Yeah. So let's see. I was here in 2020, I think. Yeah.
The sounds were good. Yeah. knows. Um, so since then my team in the in puzzle news, my team won the mystery hunt at MIT.
And then we wrote the mystery hunt at MIT. Congratulations. That's what that's happened in the last
couple of years. Yeah. At a year after that, we burned it to the ground. Seriously, there's no more
reason to do it. Um, so that was fun. We my team is Palandra and we won in 2021. And then the
prize, of course, is to write the next year's hunt, which we wrote for 2022 in January.
And that was quite an experience,
and God, it is over.
That is so cool.
So that means that the same team can't win twice in a row
because you can't participate
because you have to write.
That's a really good way to do it.
No, it's a terrible way to do it.
I really, he's a similar.
Yeah, in terms of free labor, it's great.
Yeah, exactly.
I had a really similar experience that one time at a coffee shop on MIT's campus, I lost my favorite scarf.
Is that the same thing?
Yes, and now someone has that scarf.
It's pretending to be you.
Oh, great, no problem.
The team at IO, the team that won Best Herald team, used to have to host the Dell Awards,
which were the big awards show the year after, and every year, the team that won was like,
please God, don't let us win again. We do not want to win again.
I think we won, revolver one once or twice, and I think Jill Fencermaker was an absolute beast,
and like did 90% of everything. It's kind of amazing.
Those are named after Del close, I imagine. Is that right?
No, Wisconsin. Yeah are named after Del close, I imagine. Is that right?
No, Wisconsin Del.
Yeah, the Wisconsin Del.
I was gonna ask you if you win the Del,
do you say, do you say, you're getting a Del?
Dude, you got it.
Dude, listen, dude, dude, you're getting a Del.
Dude, I'm going to the Del's.
Dude, what is everybody?
Dude, you got a Del.
You know what it was?
I got it mixed up in my head with the whole Oprah.
You got a car thing and I'm doing this.
Oh, yes, two means mashed in my head?
Well, there's also Adele's famous interview
where she says,
dude, Alma Dell,
mm-hmm, and her beautiful cock.
Famous, and her beautiful.
Famous.
So we're the same.
Ha ha ha ha.
Sandy, do you have,
do you happen to have in all your time
a drifted sea for the last two years?
Did you happen to come up with any new puzzles for us?
And we promise, we will Google what a sandbox is,
but until we get that through,
we will continue doing whatever this is.
That's all, that's all beach stuff, yeah.
Oh, shit.
Googleing something doesn't sound like us.
You have to make a box out of wood.
So this is where I get my wood,
from the wood that drips out from the shipwrecks in the sea. So that's why you see me
carrying them back and forth. Anyway, are you too?
Because you just justified the hell out of that dead wood
Dead wood. Okay. Yeah, he wasn't justified. Yeah, he was also dead. We were talking about wood. Yeah, we were talking about driftwood. You're all funny. You're all right.
Thank you, Mommy.
I mean, Aaron.
I mean, Aaron.
Sure, I've got some puzzles.
Have you won some puzzles?
So, we definitely won some puzzles.
You won some puzzles?
Okay, here's how this puzzle works.
I'm gonna give you a,
we're gonna call this thematic double bills
as if we were going to a concert of two bands. I'm going to give you a scenario
and you tell me which two bands might be playing at that scenario. I love this. So for example,
if I said who to what's two bands might be playing if you were waiting through a field after a
rainstorm that might be the shins because you're waiting through water, and you're waiting through puddles of mud.
So that might be the shins of puddles of mud.
Does that make sense?
Yes, that makes sense.
A double bill, I would hate to see.
I use that one as the example, because I don't actually like that one very much.
Let's do the more fun ones.
Okay, that's very smart.
Love it.
All right, so let's say you were doing some Alice in Wonderland cosplay.
Okay.
What two bands might you see?
Alice and chains.
Oh, bad.
Chainson.
Yeah.
Well, cosplay.
You go, you always go a little weird.
That's true.
Well, let's see who's the villain in, uh, in, uh, Queen of hearts.
A queen queen and heart and heart.
Yeah.
That's a car double bill.
Yeah, we haven't had a single good riddles
into the god.
Holy shit.
Oh my god.
Oh my god.
Oh my god.
All right, let's say you're done with that
and you take off your costume and then you,
I make it.

And.
That's a you.
And fresh, that's tost of these.
You get all that, you get all that.
You get all that.
Tangling.
Tangling in your mouth.
And all of a sudden, you can comfortably make a lot of,
a lot of iced tea.
Water or tea.
It's a lot because you have, I'm just gesturing because it,
you have.
Spicey mouth.
Spicey mouth.
What's the name of a band that might reflect a spicy mouth?
Spicey mouth.
Smash mouth?
Is that what you said, Erin?
Yeah, but that's not what I'm going for.
Pop-a-mouth.
Smell.

That's it.
Oh, nice one, Erin.
All right.
All right.
Erin, just spun a 360 and went up on the ceiling. Oh, nice one. Oh. All right. Yeah. Yeah. All right.
Error just spun at 360 and went up on the ceiling.
Yeah.
I'm so happy.
Let's say you were at a playground and you were taunting some kids.
And you were, and they wanted a band to back them up.
They would say, they would ask for who?
They would say, okay, you're taunting some kids.
They would ask a big bully.
They'd ask for...
Well, I had to play, play guns.
So there is, could I be, either a sandbox or an ocean,
I can't remember which one would be actually.
They would say, it would say words would never hurt me.
Stick's on stones.
Stick's on.
May break my-
Roll stones.

Commuting on the highway,
one of them will be traffic,

Commuting on the highway. Meeting on the highway. commuting on the highway.
Meeting on the highway.
Carving on the highway.
Not just driving on the highway, commuting.
Commuting.
A lot of traffic.
So, traffic's one, but you're commuting,
in traffic, because you're going to work
and you're coming from work every day.
Well, Sandy, I will say one of my favorite humans
of all time used to say life is a highway.

All right, so it's BDSM.
BDSM, which is really exciting me.
Allison Chains, right? There's BDSM. That's not me. Allison chains, right?
There's the same.
That's not bad.
Let's say they come in for a long tour.
That's there as well.
Well, if it's lesbian, that means it's all women.
Women and not men.
So that means that the band is women.
And if it's porn, that means they are usually pretty
all saints.
Bear naked ladies.
Bear naked ladies. Naked ladies. Bear naked ladies.
Naked ladies.
Bear naked ladies.
I should say Canadian lesbian beauty.

There's a band called the Von Bondis that did the theme song for rescue me.
Is that where we're going for?
Von Bond is just a bit of a lie for it.
Okay, I don't want to say the wrong word here.
The beat is mine.
It is a bit of a minefield that I'm trying to navigate very carefully.
Let's say 90s, mostly.
I was a big fan in the early 90s.

Sandy, before we inevitably cover you back up and say it as we do. It's fun.
We have to do it, so we will do it. Do you have anything coming up? Is there anything
that you would like to plug or at the very fucking least, where can people find you?
Yeah, I actually do have something to plug. So I just started to two things. The first
is someone created a puzzle design
challenge for the month of March called a NIG March. I have nothing to do with organizing it,
but I'm participating in it. And so I've been writing a puzzle every day, very small,
bite-sized puzzle based on a prompt, they're giving out a new prompt every day.
So for the month of March, hopefully I will continue.
And you can find those at my, at a few places, one of which is at my Twitter, which is
PZLR, or at my Instagram, which is Mystery League.
The other thing is that I just started up a publication that you can subscribe to,
sort of like a patronage program that's like Patreon, but not on Patreon.
And it costs $5 a month, and you can support me
by joining as a member, and then you'll get some
exclusive puzzles over the next, you know, once a week or so.
And that is called Signals, and you can find that
at signals.fun.
Cool.
Hell yeah.
Sandy, thank you so much for coming back on.
We will absolutely have to have you on very, very soon.
But for now, let's give you a little bit of food,
a little bit of water, and let's push you back into the ocean.
Bye bye.
We'll see you soon.
We'll see you soon.
Bye bye.
Let low tide do its thing, pull him out.
It's good seeing that sandy.
What a cut up.
What a cut up.
Hey, speaking of ups that to cut, does anyone have
anything that they would like to plug? Sure. You can follow us at ComDND on Twitter
Instagram or check it out. A few of my favorite episodes are coming out soon. So I'd love
if you gave it a shot. Add all any of my episodes not coming out soon. It might be, you
don't know, I don't know I surely don't know
