Starting point is 00:00:00 This is a headgun podcast. Recording. I am recording. So Janet, you'll be responsible for saying 4 and then clapping on the 5. Great. Here we go. 5. 4.
Starting point is 00:00:20 6. Sixth? That's the camera. That's the dumbest. I'm gonna keep it your hate, Rick, or Rick, or Rick, or me. Janet, thank you so much for doing this. Oh, I've been looking forward to it. And Aaron, we text me where you live, because I know that we don't want to have it recorded in the animals of history. Yeah, Casey Kidd over at the end. I keep thinking like, when I've just been gone a bunch,
Starting point is 00:01:05 but I keep wanting to get you to go on a hike with me. We'd love that. Are there like pretty good local LA hiking spots? Yeah, well, you know what, hiking is one of those, oh wait, I do know this already, I already knew exactly where you live, never mind. But yeah, so we can do that. I feel like hiking is a word that I now understand
Starting point is 00:01:30 since movie to LA, I feel like it's a word that has a much broader meaning than, you know what I mean? Like because this is a town where people will say, like do you wanna go for a hike? And it just means sort of walking kind of uphill on something, as long as there's not, it's not paved, that's a hike. And then there are other people who are like,
Starting point is 00:01:49 I'm sorry, I need to like end up on the top of glacier if I say I'm going on a hike. So I don't know what your characterization of a hike is. Yeah, I know that LA at least has like whatever, topography, you know, so it's like, I guess if there's elevation, there is a hike, right? Like we're hiking up something.
Starting point is 00:02:10 For anyone who can't see, which is everyone, JPC just did the wave like three times. Yeah. It's a stadium. Yeah, so like I got a hike, so I got to like bear's games, I got to like lions games. So like my beer and I like hike, like hiking, right?
Starting point is 00:02:23 Like hikes. Sure. I don't know if it all seems like you get a smoothie like my big hero like hike like hike it right like hikes sure I think it all seems like you get a smoothie and then you listen to your friend complain about something I'm like oh I'm on a hike getting my workout it's nice but I'm not even like regular hiking where you gotta put like boots on no that's true but if you go into Griffith Park you're gonna gonna get Dusty. Yeah, that's true. You're just gonna get Dusty. So as long as you're comfortable getting Dusty. What is this for? What is this for?
Starting point is 00:02:51 What is this for? What is this for? What is this for? The only gift character. Wait, that is my name, Dusty Hikes. Yep. Yep. Dusty Hikes.
Starting point is 00:03:00 Yeah, Hikes. Well, this is an episode of Hey Riddle Riddle. I'm your niece. I'm your with. Adorefai. JPC and Dusty Yikes. Dusty Yikes. And we should say this is not just any run of the mill
Starting point is 00:03:15 by off the shelf episode. This is number 200. Oh. It is our 200th freaking episode, which seems unbelievable. It doesn't feel like this should be 200 but it is. We should have been completely annihilated off the internet at like 14. You guys had your chance at episode 14. We should have just turned us to dust at episode 14 when we were weak enough for you to be dust. it just. Oh, does he? There he is.
Starting point is 00:03:47 No, not true. You should be so proud of yourselves and 200. That's, many people for that's not enough. Now, was that 200 with Patreon or can people supplement the 200 that they wish the remorov by going to Patreon and supporting you all? That's a great question. Holy shit. And I was not set up to do this in any way she performed.
Starting point is 00:04:05 That's all too deastic. I got the spike. So, never even thought about it like that. Holy shit. This is our 200th regular episode on the Patreon. I think we were at like 166 or 167 somewhere. Yeah, somewhere around there, yeah. And those are good.
Starting point is 00:04:20 Those are good ones. Yeah, those are good ones. I feel the emphasis you put on that was, implied something that I'm not sure I'm gonna agree with. We'll still have riddles, we hate riddles. We wouldn't, well, we wouldn't, we wouldn't charge $5 for something that we all do was more squalty, like that would be insane.
Starting point is 00:04:40 It'd be insane to do that. Janet, how long have you been doing JV Club? Oh, no. This will make you feel better. Ten years. Four hundred and I think 67 episodes. Holy shi- Oh, your show is a fourth grader.
Starting point is 00:04:59 Oh, that's so awful. You can legally drink. You can't wait, what? In Europe, in Europe. So awful. And that's fucking legally drink. Wait, what? And you're up in Europe. And you're in Spain. Wine with dinner, come on. Your show is a Spanish fourth grade. Well, this is.
Starting point is 00:05:15 Janet, how close are you to 500? And are you doing something? Well, how close is 460? Oh, you said exact amount? I thought you said 400 something. I'm sorry. No, I Oh, you said exact amount. I thought you said 4 or something. I'm sorry. I'm in my own little world. This is the trick. Janet, I'm so glad to have you on. What's 25 players? I'm just trying to have the damn best time to get my way together. I'm gonna do some quick math.
Starting point is 00:05:39 You've been waiting weeks to see you to ask us all about math. And do you guys Spanish please? Alright, I had another way to your bill that was $56. How much should I have left for tip? Oh, okay, hold on. I gotta get that. You know, we're a jitter that everyone says they wear when they're doing bits about being a couch.
Starting point is 00:05:56 The count is, yeah. We have some listeners submitted questions. Janet, what color is a horse in this universe? Let me get this guy out of my mouth. Nice. In my eyes. My eyes. My chart? Hey, 12 more than stop. Okay, thank you.
Starting point is 00:06:10 Well Janet, we're so thrilled that you're on our 200th episode as an official co-host. And whenever you're already we're excited to see what you have in store for us as the host of episode 200 so Wow 200's big Really gonna be excited about whatever you've brought to the show for today. I hope everyone likes talking about Eating at a restaurant and how good their server was How much you gonna tip them oh, so this is like, do boys, but for waiters. That's right. You're so funny.
Starting point is 00:06:48 Okay, that's right. I was driving the other day and I saw a sign in a diner window and the sign of the diner window said, waitresses wanted and I said, you can't do that anymore, you can't do it, right? That's true. That's a red flag. It felt like something that you would see like 70 years ago. Yeah, yeah. I was like like, surely you could be like.
Starting point is 00:07:05 She was with very cute feet, wanted. Uh-huh. They should have. Well, in my mind, I was like, I was trying to think of a scenario where that would be okay. And it's like, you go in there and it's just all dude waiters and like one owner who's just a woman who's just like, please, I need to talk to someone that's.
Starting point is 00:07:22 That is the best possible interpretation of that. Yeah, I think so. The finest, most generous interpretation you could possibly have of waitresses wanted. I was trying to do that for you. Ooh, yeah. Well, I should do that anymore. I went to, I did a impersonist escape room
Starting point is 00:07:38 finally in Calgary. This is it. How was it? What was the theme? This is what we're doing. This is what it is. This is it. And you need to, we need to stretch this into an hour jam.
Starting point is 00:07:48 So make sure you review every prop. Tell us about the textures. If I could have killed you. If I could have killed you. The puzzles, I would have tipped the puzzles approximately 20%. It was the ubiquitous and always appreciated for the most part Egyptian tomb.
Starting point is 00:08:05 Yeah. How many Egyptian tombs have you focused on? I've done a jade broom somewhere real. First escape rooms and then the real thing. I think total, I've done three that involved Egyptology, although one was like a professor's study that then turns into sort of a tomb. So total three. I think that I've done the one that I did with Adel
Starting point is 00:08:27 and then there was like a 15 minute episode of Moon Night that I kind of treated as an escape room. Yeah. So that's, that's a, we need to get out of that experience. Thank God, yes. Thank you for your experience. A little nap, some dinner, and I was through it.
Starting point is 00:08:41 I was doing it that time. I really did a sloppy eight hour escape room. Oh, really? I definitely, I mean I was done at that time. I really did a sloppy eight hour escape room. Oh really? I definitely, I mean, because that was, it was a wander in. It was a, oh, we have some time, you know, we're wandering around Calgary like, oh, we stumbled across an escape room place.
Starting point is 00:08:56 Can I ask who we is? Just Brandon and me. We were up. Yeah, he came up with me. We'd never been to Calgary and I was there for a con and so we sort of, you know, we did the thing where you just go in and say, within 45 minutes do you have a room that's going to open up, do you have something available? And they said we have the Egyptian tomb room.
Starting point is 00:09:16 And that is what, and I thought, okay, and then I actually said out loud, like such a geek. I actually do feel prepared for this because we have been trying to get through Moonnight and I also watched Death on the Nile recently. So as if for some reason that would gonna help me at all. It would be funny if you started the room and they're like the time starts now and you do that sort of like blackout that Moonnight does, that Oscar Isaac does when he switches characters and then you wake up and you're outside the room and you're like, oh god damn it. He's waited, wasted $45. We're raised.
Starting point is 00:09:48 Yeah. No, it was, it was a room that I think you and I, when we did Escape this Podcast, Adol, you brought up a recent experience too, or maybe it was on your podcast, this podcast that I'm on right now. But it was the thing where some things were a little bit broken. Yes.
Starting point is 00:10:04 Oh. And also just like things that, you know, it was like, oh, we didn't check the bag that the skeleton was holding. We checked it and we got some stuff out of it, but then it turned out there were like a couple of flimsy scraps of cloth that you really had to like, violently shake the bag out and then they sort of fluttered with a sigh down to the the and like this flashlights were
Starting point is 00:10:26 Not really working. So it was the it was the dissatisfaction Which I blame myself for of oh those aren't even things you get tripped up on that are puzzles That's just like you just feel dumb, you know what I mean that's the so that was kind of hard And I've not and I've not come back from it yet. I'm in a deep, deep, deep space. Well, you're still there right now. Holy shit, she hasn't gone out. Emotion, at least speaking. I'm both at least speaking.
Starting point is 00:10:50 Did at least the, I gotta ask you that at least the mummy curse? No, not at all. I'm not even sure there was a curse involved. Not a fuck or a shit or anything? No, no. Well, those are curse words in Canada. Oh, that's right. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:05 Yeah. Yeah, I think if you call someone like a hoser, you can get like that. It's pretty, pretty, pretty stiff, fine for that. That's right. That's right. Canadian money. This is the, hold on. I've been asked something.
Starting point is 00:11:17 This is such a gross way. I've been asked. Well, we'll see it on an adult swim. Canadian mummy. On a adult swim. I recently did an escape room in a box and I had a very similar situation where just Well, we'll see it on an adult swim, Canadian mummy. On a daily basis. I recently did an escape room in a box and I had a very similar situation where just like,
Starting point is 00:11:30 it was part, partially it was the instructions weren't super clear and partially it was like, oh, this thing wasn't super well designed. And I was like, I got the intention, but it just was very like, ultimately, it was like very unsatisfying to be like, oh, I had to Google this because there was no mechanism that in this escape room box that would allow me to move on
Starting point is 00:11:51 from this part and it was, that part was a little bit of a bummer. It sounds like you're a sore loser. I don't know. Yeah, I got me by the box. You want to be immersed. You want to be immersed in those things. So when the immersion is broken, it's a little disappointing. I think I've
Starting point is 00:12:09 Put my finger on the pulse of what episode 200 will be Janet for the next 48 minutes You will try and escape being on this podcast The clues are all there. I've been trying for 200 episodes. I can't figure it out In turn my internal monologue is like, oh, this is them trying to say they would like me to not do this part. No, please never leave. Wait, this are a lot of layers to this. No, this is not a layer. No. See, Aaron, you've been trying.
Starting point is 00:12:32 I stopped trying around 50, because I was like, I think I'm like focusing on the point too much, and if I just lose myself, and maybe I'll like drift out like a side of it. Yeah. Janet, you thinking, Janet, you thinking that we don't want you on the podcast? That's like, if I was at a cocktail bar,
Starting point is 00:12:48 John Hamm set down next to me and he goes, next drink's on me and I go, John Hamm, read the fucking room. Nobody wants you here. It's like, oh, can we also eat you? I think if you read the tabloids, you know that Johnny has gotten sober. So actually, would be really unpleasant.
Starting point is 00:13:04 Message received, I understand what you're saying. I will no longer do this podcast. I am done. I have a better metaphor for it. It says, you're stranded on a desert island and you have like a fire and you're screaming for help and then a boat goes by and they go, they probably don't want us to stop in.
Starting point is 00:13:18 What if we interrupt? That's what it is. You're on the boat and I'm on the island. Well, we're all on the island. I'm sorry you guys are Hey, sorry, I'm just screaming help. I hope I didn't interrupt your screams for help. I have this boat You probably don't want it. I'm sorry. I never want it I'm so sorry. Hey, it looks like you and your two friends were having a screaming conversation I didn't want to get involved. It's a sorry. I'm just slipping the light. Who's the cyborg sauce? Who's a cyborg sauce? I decided to panic prepare as old man puzzles, just in case.
Starting point is 00:13:49 Right, so I have three things prepared for us today. The first one is a fun little thing that I did, which is I blocked you guys off of the Heyrittle Rittle Instagram for a few days. Anyone notice? No? No. Very cool. I don't know. Your back on your back on. Wait, was I ever on? I don't know. Okayiddler Riddler's Instagram account to block my Instagram account? Yes. I'm furious. No, you're not.
Starting point is 00:14:28 You didn't even start it. You're right. You were saying about you guys while you couldn't see it was in Sendery. What if I had noticed? And I was just like, and I just couldn't sleep for three days and I'm like, to see. Hey Riddler Riddler's mad at me.
Starting point is 00:14:42 Hey Riddler Riddler. Oh my god, I'm so sorry. I don't ridd over his head, me? He ridd over his head. Oh my God, I'm so happy. I don't know what it's all to do. Oh, what can I do? I gotta run through. Let me go through the past 200 episodes and see if I can figure out what made it mad.
Starting point is 00:14:52 I'm like, don't worry, I ain't. I insulted at all. What air does it holding? I understand Instagram so little when you said that you did that. In my mind, I thought you blocked, you somehow turned off my personal Instagram account. And I was thinking, I was thinking,
Starting point is 00:15:05 how did she do that? And why? Well, I wasn't going on there, but I didn't have to walk anyone on anything and you guys wouldn't have seen shit. Okay, so what I did is I asked our listener to follow us on Instagram. You can follow us at Hey Riddle Riddle, if you don't, to describe.
Starting point is 00:15:24 Some of us can, some of us have been Riddle if you don't, to describe. Some of us can, some of us have been blocked. The first 200 episodes of Hey Riddle Riddle with one word. Got it. And what happened is I'm going to read 200 of them very quickly. And what happened was we got about 400 responses. But I will say over half of our responses were the same word or a variation on that word. I included it as few times as I could.
Starting point is 00:15:52 There's variations on the word awful. Yeah, well, you'll, okay. I could not believe how many people use this specific word. I'm going to start with this. But would you like to guess? That's a great idea. My first guess would be hilarious. That's very sweet. I'm gonna, I'm gonna go with Janet.
Starting point is 00:16:10 I wish. Okay, I'm gonna go with Janet through the first, that the word that was used the most does start with H, and I'm gonna say horny. My, my, my honestly, my brain went to horny first, but I said, I think that if you only get one word, you wouldn't do horny. If you, if you got horny for puzzies, I feel like you'd do three.
Starting point is 00:16:26 Let me set you up. If you only had one word, one word to describe Hey Riddle. How many words is overtaking? Is that hyphenated or what can you say there? Okay, what is the, so Adil's is horny. Janet, you said hilarious. Yeah, but I mean, it was already, I was already told that I was wrong.
Starting point is 00:16:47 So I've been moved on emotionally. I think my next guess is gonna be. Okay, I'm gonna split the difference. I'm just gonna say podcast. I think that, we got a couple of those. We got a couple of smart asses who are, must be a fan of yours.
Starting point is 00:17:04 We all say, I know this is not what you planned and I'm sorry that I want everything to be a guessing game. But when you say there were different variations on it, were some of the variations like portman toes, like were some of them like I took the word puzzle and put it into and merged it with another word like postacular. We got a lot of those, not the most posh horny. So those people, if you said something like podcast, you're a JPC, if you said something like posh horny, you're a Janet. So like this, you were just identifying.
Starting point is 00:17:38 So what about this? What was any of the words like riddle or puzzle? Because I feel like that would be a problem. Yeah, these are all the JPC assholes. Very literal. And then we got some ones that are very add-on that you'll see. That's what I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:17:53 Are they punny? Yeah. They're very punny. I know they were positive. I know it wasn't they were positive. I know it was an overwhelmingly positive word. Well, I would say, I don't know. I think that some of our listeners would find this positive. I couldn't believe that over
Starting point is 00:18:07 Over 200 of the 400 were this word. It made me laugh hard and made me took a good long. I really had to look inward It might be taken as a negative. So is it rip off smiley face? What is what is what was it? Was it the nature of your ask Aaron? Did you ask in a specific way that like, I said, one word to describe the first 200 episode. Improve, improve, and say, like you're like you're your fifth grade teacher. You're like, I'd rather you, any, say anything, but improving.
Starting point is 00:18:42 There's no way to take that as a compliment. Yeah. Yeah, ours was like talks too much in to take that as a compliment. Yeah. Oh my gosh. Yeah ours was like talks too much in class. We got a lot of that. Yeah. Just a distraction for others. Mine was, can you please tell Adel
Starting point is 00:18:54 to stop buying the other kids lunch? I always got very funny but bad person. I'm gonna read it. And it's the first word and then you're gonna see how often it comes up. I'm going to read it. It's the first word and then you're going to see how often it comes up. All right, ready? I'm going to go through these very quickly. Do you need to drink a water?
Starting point is 00:19:13 Can we get you anything? Oh, she's taking it. She's taking it. Can you do an impression of the Micro Machines commercial guy? I don't know what that does. Or just an auction here. Just any auction here. I don't understand how that works. All just an auction here, just any auction here. I already don't understand how that works. That's him.

Starting point is 00:20:54 I'm not. I mean, I've listened. I'm working backwards. So I'm like almost to the beginning of your podcast. In many ways, Janet. So are we. And it is improving. But again, I am listening to it backwards.

Starting point is 00:23:14 Oh, here's a podcast that I thought I'd unfollowed. Let me participate in there. No, no, no, you give that person too much credit. Oh, here's a podcast I religiously listen to so that I can then grouse to myself about how bad it is and say stuff about it on the internet. Ooh, grouses, I'm gonna use word. Yeah, we can use that word.
Starting point is 00:23:32 We can use that word. We can use that word. Oh, well that was like, you know what I'm saying? Three sweaters, three sweaters? Yeah, two or three air sweaters. And not any sweaties, which also would have been acceptable. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:42 That was like, I come into work and my boss is like, hey, I want to see you in my office and we both sit down in this office and then we watch a tape of me opening the cash drawer, just like stealing cash. And I'm sitting there watching it and I'm like, well, I mean, I did that. I know I did that.
Starting point is 00:23:57 Now I'm watching myself being caught. Like I'm being seen, I guess this is what I wanted. I need to see a scene. I'd like to see a scene at JPC. You are a surgeon who has been called in by the hospital administrator, Aaron, because there was a close, close circuit camera on an operation that you did recently and you were caught doing something. Okay.
Starting point is 00:24:21 And I'm not saying be blasphemous or dirty. We don't know. Sure. But you too, you're having to like sit through it and be confronted by this administrator. And you're not blasphemous or dirty, but you are chaotic and sweater. Yeah, I can use that direction. That's about, it's nice. Addle, you're so sweater. All right. Hey, you wanted to see me? Yeah.

She's back. Hey Aaron. Can we go to grandma's house?
Starting point is 00:35:17 Wait, I've been pranked. But how? I don't know. Hey, Rick, don't break. Truly very wild that so many people said chaos. Yeah. I got to take that note. It wasn't great to hear, but I got to live with that. I got to take that on. Can I ask, was this like private messages or was this like a post where people could see previous answers?
Starting point is 00:35:43 No, people couldn't see previous answers. Okay. That's a great question. Really good question. Yeah, isn't that insane? And more disturbing now than ever before. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:53 Over 200. Yeah, that's a lot. Chaos. I kept watching the chaos roll in and I was like, oh God. Yeah. Watching the chaos roll in. It's true. I guess that's not.
Starting point is 00:36:02 It doesn't feel as an improviser, you're not necessarily taught that taking something into chaos is what you want. But I don't, I mean, I just don't agree. I feel like one of the things that impresses me about your show is the fact that you come back to things and that you, like, that things live and that they exist where they exist and then you move back into something and maybe there's a call back and maybe there isn't. But that's my worst fear is coming on and like making things chaotic because you have you are the three of you are such a well-loiled machine and by the three of you I mean Casey
Starting point is 00:36:35 Casey one microphone and I wanted to include Casey in that because he's a big part of it but well here's the thing that I would literally be dead without him when I was a kid. I need you more about why? Oh, he gives us water. He can't get this over that. Is that Bill Collins song based on Casey Saviges? When I was a kid and I saw magic shows, I thought it was like truly something like unexplainable. And then when I was in high school, I was working with a magician friend of mine and I was learning how to do all the magic for magic shows. And I was like, oh, this reads to me now. So what I have to believe is all the people that are saying chaos are people that are not improvisers or haven't seen magic before.
Starting point is 00:37:15 And it just reads as chaos because it's layered behind just a delicate enough to steal the place. That's the man he played on Uncle Santa for an entire episode. Aaron, I don't know what to tell you. I wasn't on that episode. You were. I was on that episode. I wasn't there.
Starting point is 00:37:30 I get what we got. I'm never going to believe that. Oh, no. Okay, Adela, are you ready for our first game? Yes, I am. Thank you. Okay. But I believe I have an answer for the first round. Okay, great. Go ahead.
Starting point is 00:37:48 Which is to go to Instagram and type in the JV club and and follow. Yep, that was. You're the winner of that first game. Okay. I am. Pranked in blocked. Janice seems wildly confused, but I mean, plugging her Instagram. I guess. I guess my answer to that is now I'm gonna take over trying to make the sound you make when you're trying not to laugh because the three of you each have my favorite sounds
Starting point is 00:38:15 and podcasting and now you only know what one of them is. Oh, can we do like a Shaka style? Oh, it's fine, my little sneeze. Can we do like a pop, a pop, is Sysra Ellipshits kind of a... Yeah. But he won't reward. But it's just the Addle Sound six times.
Starting point is 00:38:30 You had it. Wait, real quick, grade me on this. Grade me on this. Okay. That was pretty good. That was pretty good. Was it two syllables? Was it one syllable too many?
Starting point is 00:38:40 Like, I think there's a higher pitched sound when Adel does it. Let me hear your version, JPC. Can you do it? I've never tried before. Let's try. Nope. I can try. That is a sound of a man on the 34th floor as a man from the top of the building passes
Starting point is 00:38:59 him fall. That's a drunk elephant's hiccup. Here we go. Let's try it. I'm gonna have one margarita and then make a version of that Chicago sound song But I'm keeping Cicero so go Okay, so by the way, I don't want it before we move past it. You were trying to guess all of the, you were trying to guess the three sounds that Janet makes. Aaron said, is it my little sneeze?
Starting point is 00:39:31 That's like someone who's like, hey, guess my worst quality in someone's like, oh, is it that I'm an elegant dancer? And it's like, oh, so this person is delusional. So you agree, you think my sneeze is cute? My worst thing is that I work too hard. I was saying my favorite sounds, why wouldn't I, why wouldn't it be a cute adorable thing?
Starting point is 00:39:48 The ones that I had to pick, the thing I thought was dreadful. That's true, that's true. Aaron, what the game you'd like to play? Aaron, what's the game? So I can't tell if you're going to be at an advantage or disadvantage, Janet, for not being around or being in charge of naming these episodes,
Starting point is 00:40:03 but I'm going, we're going gonna be playing real or fake episode title. Right. This game, I love this game. I think that everyone will do great or bad. I think that you'll all be united on it. This is a great game. And you did this game yourself? I did.
Starting point is 00:40:18 This is me and my little sneeze. Aaron, this is wild because I had a Patreon game that we did not play, which was me going and finding old episode descriptions of Hey, Rital Riddell and me reading real ones and fake ones and you have to tell me, is this a real episode or a fake episode? And I didn't make that game, so I'm not at an advantage here. I've not gone and looked at, you know, old episodes. I've not done that.
Starting point is 00:40:38 Oh gosh, okay. Well, thank goodness. This is just one of those classic cases of some great parallel thinking. Yeah. Okay. Here is just one of those classic cases of some great parallel thinking. Yeah. Okay, here is the first one. Okay. Horse court. I mean, I'm sorry, I mean.
Starting point is 00:40:53 You're not good. I do feel like, I feel like especially in the first 75 episodes, we had a lot of horse content. Court content too. Sorry, horse court tent. Court tent. I courted a horse. I courted a horse. I courted a quartered horse.
Starting point is 00:41:07 Yes, but keep in mind. I courted a quartered horse. I'm not trying to draw it towards anything, but I did draw in court. Maybe sometimes think of specific scenes or stuff that work. Oh, that makes sense. I'm trying to mess with your memories, but this is court. And for me, some of this, I'm just going to have to, I'm going to have to play a meta game of like, would Aaron start with something real or would you start with something?
Starting point is 00:41:25 Yeah, what kind of person's chess character do we have in our Malady Aaron which start with a real one or fake one Janet is playing chess. I just ate half a sorry board I do you see a scene I do this in a scene. I do what it's using. Yep. This is in the, whenever the fucking Victorian era was, who knows numbers. Aaron, you are some sort of like...
Starting point is 00:41:52 That's why we invite a job. You're like a deputant and this is your ball. There's some big gathering or something. And Janet, you are a local horse who has a body gown and you're showing up at the party and you're trying to pass yourself off as a welcome man invited. Okay, a couple of things real quick. It did sound like you said deputant. Like someone was not the main deputy, but like was the sidekick that had been deputy.
Starting point is 00:42:25 Sorry. You're a deputy, you're a deputy who talks other people. Okay. Great. You're really, you're really happy. You're really hoping the sheriff can't make it to the balls in the deputy. Exactly. Sorry.
Starting point is 00:42:37 You are a little deputy, deputy, deputy, deputy, deputy. I think I'll be able to dig through the last 30 seconds to find Yeah, I'm a little retrash raccoon and I'm digging Trash to find the scene airing your throwing a ball. Yeah, you're a horse. I gotta get it I'm so excited to be presented to say, Oh, who are you? I don't believe we've been acquainted. We certainly haven't been acquainted.
Starting point is 00:43:16 It is why Olivia have, hey, Eater. Hmm. Olivia, I'm unfamiliar with you. Where do you live in town? I live in the... How familiar with town are you? Very! You've only recently come out! My daddy is the mayor! So we know everything Well, I live well as I live in breathe I live in Is sort of a born style mansion a little let's move on from where I live deep like my dress
Starting point is 00:43:58 I do and your hair's very shiny. I should let you know I heard rumor that there's a horse masquerading around this ball in a gown trying to present yourself to society. Well, you always know anything about that. What a ridiculous idea, although if that horse existed, I would say bravo. Bravo for trying to break through into a society that has here to for decided that you're no better than a thing to have someone sit on and I'm just gonna say right now that this bustle this large very
Starting point is 00:44:37 pretuble and bustle I have behind me that's wiggling little is standing by me through everything I'm saying right now. If there are some lies by your bustle. You should know there are flies back there. Also you had to do several three-point turns to get into this room. Well that's only because there's a man at the back of me inside my bustle making the... Can I tell you something like the equine? Can I tell you something? Would you? Can I trust you?
Starting point is 00:45:13 I'm the horse. Oh, oh! This is really... I'm the father, the mayor! Oh! That worked! Yes, it was the other... The mayor, the mayor. Like a horse.
Starting point is 00:45:27 And I didn't keep my hands flat, wouldn't putting sugar in my coffee, and my fingers are gone. See. Okay, we gotta get through these. Horse quirk. Great. Well, Aaron, we don't have to get through these. We do. No, we don't. Okay, we don't.
Starting point is 00:45:41 We don't. I cry. We do. I'm happy. You make the call. Okay, we do, we do, we do, we do. I see. do I'm happy you make the call I see no, I said no, I said not real I'm with Janet. I say real. I say real. It's real give yourself Blame it on my moose No, I'm scared about knowing this is based on yeah, it's like is it based on a Luzo song? Basically, I'm maybe a scene or something, that's... That just an layer of... I go fake on Blame it on my moose.
Starting point is 00:46:10 I think it's not. I think Blame it on my moose is not. Here's what I'm gonna say. Janet, you mentioned that you were recently in Calgary. Did you see any... Mice? Nope. Try again.
Starting point is 00:46:22 More cheese. What? More cheese for us mooses. No, I to what? For us, mooses. No, I just saw pictures of them. Okay. What you can see anywhere, not just Calgary. So I'm going to say, I shouldn't play. I'm going to sit this game out.
Starting point is 00:46:33 No. No. And just, well, how but, okay. Do you know, you think you know? It's true that I guess my aunt, no, no, but I feel like I'm, I mean, I just bragged about having these funnier than anybody. One. But how often do you stare at the,
Starting point is 00:46:49 do you know what I mean? How often are you staring at the titles? Sometimes when I'm writing episode descriptions, I get like three lines in and I think, what is this for? Like who's rating pass the little bit that scrolls at the top of the Jeppos? I'm gonna start hiding my bank number
Starting point is 00:47:03 and say the episode description. jepa's episode. I'm gonna start hiding my bank number and send the episode to the scriptions. I'd try your map. Believe me, not my moose, real or fake? Fake. Fake. Real. Fake. Riddling my thumbs.
Starting point is 00:47:17 Now, here's what I will say. I definitely remember, I definitely remember, when we first started the podcast, we tried to make each episode like a kind of pun on Riddle. And we got pretty far that we realized, oh no, this is gonna keep going. So I'm gonna say real on Riddle-ing my thumbs. I'm gonna say fake, because that's too good of a pun.
Starting point is 00:47:38 I feel like our puns are worse. I'm gonna say real and that it came from the context of you doing a scene in which one of you was a riddling Macbeth. No, I don't, but I'm just realizing right now that I don't remember what thing this comes from, but that someone says, by the riddling of my thumb, something funny. I was like, it comes. That feels like that was like it.
Starting point is 00:48:02 That's what it means. I bite my thumb at you, sir. I bite with it. Well, we're classy. We're not chaotic. Hmm feels like that's like it me I But my Classy we're not chaotic Okay Okay I'm Fake with the considering that we had 100% wrong
Starting point is 00:48:18 You're gonna come back from this ready carrot bottom-o'-moon In you cards Carrot, shoot in the moon. In you cards. Carrot bottom. Oh, like carrot bottom. Carrot bottom was definitely a bit we did. Real. I do remember doing that bit,
Starting point is 00:48:32 but I don't know if we made the title, carrot bottom, I don't wanna say real. Well, I'm gonna say real because. Smart. I'm just letting the people who know better than I. It's real. It's real. Okay, great.
Starting point is 00:48:43 All right, well, we're gonna move through these faster, ready? Peer a mid life real. Okay. All right, well, we're gonna move through these faster. Ready? Repair a midlife crisis. Fake. Ah. The problem is, I don't know 66% of these because I was not involved in maybe 66% of these. So.
Starting point is 00:49:01 I'm gonna say fake, why reward upon by giving it the title? Yeah, here's the thing. Addle said fake and if anyone were to name that episode It would have been Addle pyramid life crisis. So I will say fake as well, but I do not remember anything Call me JFK It's obviously an adult title Good will farting God I only hope it's not real. I want to bet that we would not do this on the show. I want to believe that there's a version of myself who wouldn't have named an episode
Starting point is 00:49:41 this, but I know that version doesn't exist. I know who I am. I've seen the mirror chaos 200 times. Of course this is real. It's real. Mood. Ring. That sounds right. That sounds real. That sounds familiar. I hope this is fake because how many owes who would decide?
Starting point is 00:50:01 So many owes who would decide. So many elves who would decide? So many elves. I want to see a scene. Um, I'm so embarrassed right now. I'm so embarrassed that we have Janet here for this. Sorry, I'm sorry. I love it. Aaron's just holding up.
Starting point is 00:50:21 She's like, did someone do make a mess in these underwear? I'm like, why? Why would we do this now? Mom, I have friends in my room. And I want to see what you like to see. JPC, Janet, and Aaron, the three of you are the fellowship of the mood ring. You're three sort of like hot topic type,
Starting point is 00:50:42 you know, high schoolers who have to destroy a ring. Okay. Who will bear this burden? Hang on, let me finish my chili dog. I will take the ring to mortar, mortar, I will take the ring and mine. Jen, you're using quotes. You're using quotes.
Starting point is 00:51:02 Yeah, in my acts. Jen, I'm gonna mortar you if you don't have more enthusiasm about this quest. Oh my God. You guys know that my mom's pregnant again. It's so embarrassing. I'm 16. There's gonna be a baby in my house.
Starting point is 00:51:18 Ew. Okay, well, Jen's gonna obviously have to take care of the baby so she can't take the ring to mordor or whatever we're going. I can't take it because I don't have my license and I won't learn to drive. Why, Gimli? Gimli, why? I am afraid. I am afraid that my feet won't reach the pedals. And so I don't even want to try.
Starting point is 00:51:38 Wait a minute, I know we're not supposed to put the ring on any one of us, but when you start throwing around emotions, Oh, reach the pedals. And so I don't even want to try. Wait a minute, wait a minute. I know we're not supposed to put the ring on any one of us, but like when you start throwing your own emotions, of course, I'm going to ask you to put on the mood ring. So I can tell if you're worthy, because if you're truthful, the ring will show that you're afraid, because everyone knows that a mood ring turns when you're afraid. And everyone will be able to tell.
Starting point is 00:52:04 And so if you're trustworthy You should take the ring and you can take my skateboard. You don't have to you can just skate there You don't have to drive there. Okay, your skateboard has busted trucks and we all though that it will not make it to work All right, fine.

Starting point is 00:54:26 Well, in my mind, I know that that's the silent plea of Aaron every single episode. But she's two nights of a person to let it leak out into a title. You can see it in visible ink under the title. If you guys look closely. My honk will go on. Definitely real.
Starting point is 00:54:42 Yeah, I'm a favorite one. I used to be an improviser. It was real. That's a real one as well. I'm going to say real that. Also real. Yeah, I'm a safe one.

I'm on the phone Seen Aaron is my favorite scene we've ever done I don't feel like any of our names have ever been in the title.
Starting point is 00:55:56 Oh really? I know we fucked up pretty bad Aaron, but I feel like the apology has always just come like after the episode. I don't think we actually posted the apology as an episode title. You're right. It's fake. Just kiss riddle riddle. Real. That's real. Real. Yep. Real. John Travolta's half birthday.
Starting point is 00:56:16 No. I don't remember that. I feel like I would have remembered any part of that, but maybe it's real. I'm gonna sit. Oh, go ahead, Edel. I feel like, out of everyone I know in the world, do you know everyone? Have you ever crossed paths that was John Fraldo?
Starting point is 00:56:32 Really? Never have. So wickedly talented John Fraldo. Janet, can I tell you, this is maybe a little non-fact, that in Greece, he says, you know how it is rocking and rolling and whatnot? And whatnot. Did you know that?

So if that's on the list, let me preemptively say it's real. It's ill. What did you say the name of this one was? John Travolta's half birthday.
Starting point is 00:56:57 I'm going to say real because I think that is the title of episode 200. Well, now it is. I'm going it is fake. I was going to say, but that is going to be a mad dash to whoever can name it. It's about. Ed Plant Parade Part One. Fake. Part One.

Starting point is 00:58:39 So I do feel like there's a Janet episode that was called Three Mommies Making Salad. But I don't think it was the title you just said here. So I'm going to say fake. Yeah, fake. I think that this one is real, but I think it'sad, but I don't think it was the title you just said here. And so I'm gonna say fake. I think that this one is real, but I think it's a Patreon, I don't think Janet's on it.

That sounds real. But it might be another one like help us.
Starting point is 00:59:27 I don't know. I just want to believe that it's fake. It's fake, but I love it. It's my favorite one I made up. Stuck in the riddle with you. That one's real for sure. In fact, it's a price for 10. I feel like we probably have two episodes called that.
Starting point is 00:59:43 It's the pilot. Yeah. How far up the egg do the pants go? Real. Whoa, I hope that's real. Yeah, that's real. That one's real. Talking about Humpty Dumpty, we all know how far up the egg the pants go.

Starting point is 01:00:04 Fake. No. Riddle. Fake. Real. Fake. No. Riddle Shopper. I'm worried that we've gone into a pocket where Aaron opened up like her DVD Kate covered like her cover and was like, wait a throw me a bit over the bus. We're little women. Find Riddle Shopper for us.
Starting point is 01:00:20 We're monsters. Fake. Real. Fake. Yeah. Three Butler's living in the very same house. That's real. That's real. That's not my real.
Starting point is 01:00:29 JPC, what I did there. Probably real. Probably real. Please be fake. No, wait, I said no, none of our names are in the title. So I'm gonna say fake. I think it's fake as well, but I'm gonna use it now. It's fake.
Starting point is 01:00:41 But there is a lot of our names and titles. Guilty beyond a reasonable Mrs. Doubtfire. Mm, that's a really bad thing. I feel like Mrs. Doubtfire turned up in a title, but was it that? I feel like we've done a lot of Mrs. Doubtfire bits. So I'm gonna say yes, just out of, I'll say real.
Starting point is 01:00:58 I'll just. Yep, great. And the last one is my riddle pony. Real. That one's real, that one's real, right? It's real. Woo! Woo! Great job.
Starting point is 01:01:09 Woo, woo, woo, woo. You're right. I gotta say, those were very difficult. Again, this is... Great. Great. That's so strong. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:19 I'm desperate to do some word avalanches while we still have Janet here. Okay. I cannot believe you were doing this to me. You love them, remember? I do. You decided I love them. I know you're right. You're right.
Starting point is 01:01:36 I loved on the first episode and then the second episode, wait, have there been more than how many times would you choose? I think the first time we did them Janet, I think after the episode was done, we hung around for like another 10 minutes and we just were making them up and we were all laughing until we cried. Yeah. And I think the second time that we did them,
Starting point is 01:01:54 we were all just like, we're over these. In my memory, what happened was Janet showed up the dinner and we were having meatloaf and Janet took a bite of the meatloaf and she said, oh, this is really good because that's what you say when someone gets you dinner. And then now every time we see Janet, we're like, we brought meatloaf, and Janet took a bite of the meatloaf, and she said, oh, this is really good, because that's what you say when someone gets you together. And then, now, every time we see Janet, we're like, we brought meatloaf, we have like a ziplock bag of meatloaf in our pocket.
Starting point is 01:02:12 I remember a little different, I remember going to a meatloaf concert with you guys, rest in peace. And I said, he's so great, because that's what you say when someone takes you to a concert, and they pay for it. Now, I'm excited about the avalanches. I'm just, I just know that the same thing is going to happen because it has consistently happened, which is for days, days, I'm sort of muttering to myself, like to the chagrin and concern of everyone around me, because the three of you
