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.
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,
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
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,
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.
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?
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?
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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,
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
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
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.
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,
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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,
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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
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?
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.

Can I pause real quick just to check in?
Janet, have you listened to this weather episode?
Yeah.
Okay.
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.
And do you like me?
I like you three so much of the more I listen,

You're three of the funniest people I know,

Jay, hey, Janet, we couldn't use a little more of this energy on fucking Instagram.
And I wasn't even the one who said, Puzz-Tacular.
That's my soul mate. I gotta get out of the relationship I'm in.
Who's Puzz-Tacular? Finder. Maybe a few less chaos followers, a few more Janet followers.
So I'm gonna say for a fucking social media.

That's the correct amount.
You need one horrible one
and then those 199 just slip away
as if they never existed.
Let me scroll through my feed.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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. I got a tea time
in 25. So take a seat. Take a seat. Ooh, this is going to be a sit down? Yeah. I got a tea time in 25, so. Take a seat. Take a seat?
Ooh, this is going to be a sit down.
Yeah.
Hey.
We're going to have to let you go.
What is this?
I got good news in that name.
Oh, good.
My tea time's in 25, so.
Sir, your Earl Grey is almost ready.

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?
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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?
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
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?
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?
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,
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.
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.
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.
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.
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?
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...
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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?
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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,
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
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.
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.
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.
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
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,
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.
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.
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
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?
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.
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,
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.
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.
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.
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.
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. I'll put it on I'll put it on
Okay, does not fill on my ring finger that so sucks to be fighting out in front of everyone
Let's just try okay not by pinky either
I literally do not have a smaller finger and this ray will not hit on it
I actually need to be done right now. Gimli is going to walk away
Whoa, whoa, whoa, where are you going gag me if you pass? No, thanks
You have to stay in here, okay? I'm the hall monitor
Okay, and I think this job seriously. I forgot God
That hall monitor is so fucking hot. I'm a hall monitor and my dad is Paul Mulder who is the Milwaukee Brewer sluggier
jealous
Yeah, same

Wait, what's gut?

You can tell, you can say any one of the Santa clause based ones that we've done, and I know that it was real. That's real. For sure. Yep. That's the same dude.
You could say any one of the Santa Claus based ones that we've done and I know that it
was real.
Here's what our show titles are mostly riddles, puns, Santa Claus, horses.
It's real.
It's real.
Help us.
That sounds real.
Fake.
That sounds real and it sounds like nobody did.
I think it was a genuine great for help.
It's fake.
I just wish I did it. You got it, did. It's fake. I just didn't wish that.
You got to do it.
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.
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 used to be an improviser. It was real.

Hey hold on
Wait, I want to see a scene hold on I want to see your way out of this
This will be the first thing I'm in I like to see a scene that we apologize
Robble to Aaron and and go hey Aaron can I touch you for a second? 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.
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.
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?
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?
I do.
I told you.
Uh, thank you, Edel. And whatnot, I you know that? I do. I told you. Thank you, Ellen.
And whatnot, I think is the name of one of the episodes I was in.
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.
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.
Fake.
I gotta say fake.
Right?
Oh, two five.
What if the next thing you say is a plant parade part two?
Part two.
It has real.
A star is wars.
That's real.
Like, we have to be right.
It's real.
Okay.

Yep.
Oh, yeah.
Three men in a riddle lady.
Real.
Oh.
Yeah, that was episode one or two.

Yeah, it would be a good thing.
That makes sense, three men, yeah.
Dead stop in the name of love.
Pick.
Wait, three minute of a riddle lady
and it was us in the name of love sound.
I think Arnie was also guest.
Were there also three men on that show?
Thank you, Thank you.
That's good.
Dead stop in the name of love.
I'll say fake.
Fake.
That's so real to me.
Fuck.
You made these fake ones up.
They're really good.
I did.
Oh, thank you.
I also happened to name a third of the titles.
It was a real advantage.
I'm, I, uh, Dan our Janet Varney's three speaking hamsters
present Hey Riddle Riddle.
Ooh.
Big.
I feel like, I feel like the first time Janet was on was one
of my favorite bits of all time, which
was three mommies making salad.
Yeah.
That's three of you singing a song.
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.
It's fake.
Yeah, yeah.
The bird's, the bee's the Nicholas cages.
The birds, the bee's the Nicholas cages.
It just sounds a little long, right?
I'm gonna say fake.
It's real, and I think you titled it, did you think?
Take a, take a riddle, leave a riddle. Take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, take a, Hey, sadness, sadness. That sounds real. But it might be another one like help us.
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.
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.
The riddle mermaid.
Real.
Wait, fake, fake.
Fake.
Yes.
Stuart riddle.
Fake.
Real.
Fake. No. Riddle. Fake. Real.

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Woo, woo, woo, woo.
You're right.
I gotta say, those were very difficult.
Again, this is...
Great.
Great.
That's so strong.
Yeah.
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.
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,
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.
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
and KCR, the only ones who understand Parker, what my brain is doing.
Parker, Posey poses a threat.
Parker, Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey-Posey I found them on the internet. I think half of them are from Reddit, half of them are from another website.
So let's see if you like them.

You like that one?
This one made me smile, so I'll read it.
I'm glad for that one that they all took a little break from yelling at women about video
games to make a fun word avalanche.
Thanks for that.
Speaking of this one made me smile.
I do want to see a quick scene.
Janet, you are fucking who painted this?
Who painted the Mona Lisa?
Oh, the Vinci.
The Vinci, yeah?
So Janet, your DaVinci, Aaron, you are posing, you were Mona Lisa, you're posing
for the portrait and Janice trying to get you to smile.
Mmm.
Okay, I saw a dog die on the way here.
Oh, we're not going to do the accents.
Okay.
Hold on.
Hold on.
No more. Oh, we're not going to do the accents, okay. Hold on. Hold on, the moment.
Mm.
Mm.
Oh, okay.
So you're really going through something right now.
I'll turn it down.
So you all four of my grandparents died yesterday.
Okay.
Did you not, uh,
I got an ice cream cone to make myself feel better
and it fell on the ground.
You could have canceled.
You know, we could have rescheduled.
Like, I'm not, I don't, I'm not scary to you.
I'm not, you know, we're just friends.
I said I was going to.
No, I have to be today.
You want me to paint you this.
Yeah.
You said, please paint the sport to them.
I said, whenever's convenient.
Wow.
You make this plan with me, then you show up and you tell me,
you had a garbage day yesterday.
Just cancel.
I've found out.
Now you're trying to make this face
that looks like you're smiling,
it's very confusing.
People are going to be mystified by it for centuries.
Let's not do this.
I have to actually not to be able to.
I'm not going to live till tomorrow.
Oh, I better get painted.
And I let go of my balloon.
Hahaha.
Do you mind if I ask?
What do you want to be here tomorrow?
I have a disease in my butt that's going to kill me.
Why is my...
Okay, the old disease in the butt that's going to kill you.
I get it.
Like, that's the first time I've ever heard someone give that excuse.
I don't think so.
Wait, does your disease... I'm really sad? I feel so bad.
Hey, hey, hey, DaVinci, it's David here. Do we have to do the sculpture right now?
Because I just got out of a very cold pool. Oh, David, why didn't you go swimming?
That's not on me. I'll tell you what, this will make you feel better.
I will not make you to scale. I will actually make you much, much bigger. So you're tiny, tiny, pee.
I see normal size.
Hey, Da Vinci, it's me, the first drawings and plans for a modern day airplane.
Um, oh boy.
See? See? See.
We did it everybody.
I did it.
I did it.
I'm the love to get a little backstory on how you chose your voice, Adel.
There's going to be a whole documentary about why he sounds like this.
Well, I knew I was going to get edited quickly, so I was like, let's go for the dumbest
voice possible.
I do think maybe the funniest thing we've had in two of our episodes is Janet telling
the Mona Lisa she could have canceled I love that so much

Where can people find you?
What are you got coming up?
What's going on in the world?
I mean, you can follow me at Dusty Hikes.
I've been taking a lot of pictures.
It's kind of hard to make out what any of
them are. There's a lot of granules getting on, yeah, into the lens. Um, quickly makes
note to self-decreate false internet account for our dust. By the way, we say stuff like
that all the time we never do. And so what always does is you follow we can't wait to see does the high score. I cannot wait. You can follow me at Janet Varney.
You can listen to some podcasts.
Sure.
We've named both of them because of breaking the elements
about all things avatars.
And I would like to donate JPC's time to reading a...
Oh, I star review.
Thank you Janet for the setup.
I so appreciate it. I know that you do it last, but I don't know. Thank you, Janet, for the setup. I so appreciate it.
I know that you do it last, but I don't know.
It's a 200th episode.
Yeah, I mean, so it's 200th episode.
I have a couple good ones here.
Here we go.
This one is from Seamons with Tuzis,
and it's titled Love That Casey, Five Stars.
First time listening, it was an episode about Ohio,
such a quirky and funny show.
I really liked that host, Casey.
He was very funny and brought a good energy to the show
I could go so far as to say he made everyone else seem funnier great dynamic
It's a shame Casey didn't talk more get wait to hear more from him and other episodes also Aaron is such a vibe
Hmm and into the spirit of that one here's another one. This one is from EE EE keef with three F's
It says pretty good stuff. My name is Aaron and the show is actually pretty great.
JPC and Adel could compliment Aaron
and parenthesis Keith a little more.
And parenthesis a lot more.
I hope this makes plugs.
I have a crush on Lil Monkey Bones.
And then we have another one.
This is from Gravity. It says JPC Milks Trucks.
Thank you. So I gotta ask, what the fuck is going on?
Well, I only wrote one of those, and I'm sorry.
We actually have one more that I pulled specifically because I knew Janet was gonna be on
because this review is from Janet.
This review says Janet.
John Patrick and his wife were absolute pleasures to host.
They were very kind and great with communication.
They took good care of our farmhouse.
And we're super clean.
No, but definitely welcomed them back.
We would definitely welcome them back anytime. We so appreciate guests like them
Why how did this get in here? That's an Airbnb review for me honeymoon. Yeah, now. Yeah, Uber reviews
Very kind and great with communication. So I guess doesn't say anything about chaos like a bunch of people are fucking wrong
Yes, I have three things to plug.
Number one is the Aaron is stunning.
Period.
I might have to change my review.
Number two is I recently got it on a podcast
called Tribal Council, which is a survivor review podcast.
So if you're watching the current season of survivor,
please check that out as I talk about an episode in this season
And number three there I want to plug is I want to plug to having Janet Varni on your podcast Janet
You're one of my favorite humans. I think you're just a goddamn delight and I thank you so much for being a co-host an official co-host
And we look forward to having you on back soon. Oh, man. I love the show so much. So I'm so proud to be here. We love you.
The show love you.
I'm very honored.
It's like a Mr. Show sketch.
You love the show.
The show loves you.
You can say.
I love to just end.
I love that during as the credits roll, you know, what regrets do you have about this
being your 200th of a second?
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. What do these that could have been done differently to make it feel more like the big 2 0 0?
I guess I would have maybe loved it if it felt more like a celebration of the accusation
Really felt really felt red
