This is a today in class. J, PC. Here. Yeah, yes. I checked in with my buddy. I checked with him my buddy beforehand and he's gonna verify that I am here. But I'm here and my buddy can say, here. Yeah, that I'm here.

Okay, is he gonna be talking for you for the rest of class or? No, it's a buddy system, it's for safety. Okay, are you the JPC that the teacher was telling me about? I know I'm just a son, but I do have the condition. And this is I'm out of my bubble today because I have a cheat day. Once a year. Okay.

Here trouble. Adel, you have a fire. Are you here? So let me explain something about the buddy system. She's my buddy, but I'm not his buddy, I'm his enemy. And so basically the way that it works is you always have to be in motion. Like I have to have my buddy in between my enemy and me. And do you understand?

That's why I'm behind you right now. Yeah, I quit. I quit. I'm just a sub and your teacher told me that you two were jerks. Aaron said you couldn't be here today. I'm just the sub. I don't wanna be here. I quit.

Yeah. Well, what if we made you picks up big metal lid? Lunch. I'm already gone. Oh, but you can hear me? Hello, Adolf. JPC, I couldn't take one day off. You couldn't be nice to the sub.

Oh, Miss Aaron. Miss Aaron, we hated the sub. We just used so much. I hate this. Her voice was all wrong. I don't think we could say that. Hello, welcome to Hey, Riddle Riddle. I'm Erin Keef.

That's Adel Rufai over there. Still not here. And that's Jay Kama PC, I believe. If we're using the buddy system which we are personal car tourney Well Aaron that's not all we have in the studio today. I mean all of our homes We have two of our friends from retails of magic. It's we're collecting the entire set It's gonna take us three maybe four years to do it, but we are going to do it Tim Allie welcome to the show

four years to do it, but we are going to do it. Tim, Ali, welcome to the show. Woo! Present! Wow! See, that wasn't hard at all, right? Ali brought a present. Wow, can you wrap it up? Yeah, it's me.

Oh, it lifts up big middle-lead. It's Ali. That's cool. That's so proud. I don't know how you did that. That's very cool. I jump out of the trash can. So the substitute said that if I was on my best behavior

during class, and I would get five minutes at the end of class to do a little performance for everyone, is that transfer over to real teacher? Yes, it does. OK. But you got to be on your best behavior the whole time. And it'll give you five full, unbroken minutes to perform whatever you want.

OK. The sub said that she read that in an interview about Jim Carrey and so she thought it might work for my behavior or issues. Well, the subs also said that's how Jim Carrey chipped his front teeth. So watch yourself. I do, I do love a kid like getting one over on the substitute,

but it's for something that will only bring them like ridicule and pay. I know you weren't here when you were out, but the subset that I could have detention all week this week. Uh, Oh, please. Tim, I want to ask the same question.

We're all champion at the bit to get it out. Are you all okay? No, no, no. We're tired. Iting at the bit to get it out. Are you all okay? No, no, no. We're tired. It's a Monday morning early. These are first recording of the day. This is bad.

Tim and I, what is your relationship with riddles? Do you like them? Do you not like them? And by riddles, I mean riddles, puzzles, lateral thinking problems, crosswords, even, escape rooms, anything and everything. I thought we were gonna warm up to this. So I'm a little bit shocked

to have to tell you my relationship with riddles right away. You can also say pass. You get one pass for episode. Do I? Yeah. And then I fully pass on the question. Oh smart move. Not a lot of guess take advantage of that. No, I'm ready. I'll jump right in. Hey, I'm Ali Fisher and I like a riddle. Ooh. It's a comfortable middle road. I will say that I have loved riddles, but I'm not so indiscriminate in my riddle appreciation

that all riddles get get excitement out of me. Right? Smart. What a healthy answer. Protect yourself. Thank you. Do you have? I almost asked if you had a favorite riddle, but instead I'll say, is there a riddle

or even a, every once in a while, like a property, we just saw the new Mission Impossible movie and there were riddles in that. Oh, yeah. Do you have a thing that you have a, not necessarily a favorite riddle from, but like a property that has riddles in it that you enjoy? I was trying to ask the question in the vaguest way possible

so that you might have an answer to it, but I got about halfway through the question was like, what a terrible fuck you. Is there any property and or franchise and or IP where riddles happen? you can lie as in ways that have been impactful for you? Sure, I appreciate you, yeah. How about this?

It's like a logic puzzle. What do we think about time travel is like a riddle, right? Cause you're like, like, logging in through stuff by stuff. So I think I feel like what? I always forget the name of it. It's Tom Cruise, Emily Blunt. Edge of Tomorrow, which is famous for Pete.

One of the number one movies we talk about on this podcast. It's true. It truly is. I almost passed on this question. No. Collectively, think it is one of the most underrated films of all time. It is. It really is.

So I put it in, we do movie marathons, and my movie marathon was about motorcycles. It was called clutch, just like with friends. And there's one moment where Tom Cruise rides a motorcycle on this, and that's how it squint. Yeah, that's a third act motorcycle thing. It's very brief. It is but a moment, but it's squeaked in,

and it became one of my favorite movies of the year. But I think for that one, I love a time travel sort of video game logic where it's like, okay, I got this far, I died. I got this far I died. I have to stop role, live-dye repute. So I guess. Which is better than the graphic novel.

I think the graphic novel is called, all you need is die or something? Mm-hmm. Oh, yeah, is it all you need is killer all you need to kill I think you're right Yes, which I have not enjoyed I have read it But I I watched the movie about a thousand times before I read it and then I was like But it's not like the movie there's nothing So I I ruined it like the movie. There's nothing to do. So I ruined it for myself. The movie was better.

It's a great film. I think the movie did this thing where, look, Tom Cruise, a lot of problems with the Tom Cruise guy, but one thing that I don't have a problem with is his ability to make compelling movies and be very good in them. Like that's, he's a, he's a movie guy. He only exists to make movies for my pleasure

and they, they fix them stuff with, I think with the script of the base material them. Like that's he's a mis he's a movie guy. He only exists to make movies for my pleasure. And they they fix them stuff with I think with the script of the base material to make it more like of an enjoyable blockbuster movie. And I'm big in favor of that. So I will say a Tom Cruise fun opinion is that he is sexless in a comfortable way. He's like a big action star, obviously attractive, like super hot shit, but he has no chemistry with anyone ever. And I'm like, I'm fine with it. It makes me very happy. No one feels threatened. The dynamics remain static. So I get to focus on the logistics of the movie. Yeah, Ali, is there a time travel paradox in particular when you bring up time travel as a riddle? Is there like one paradox or like,

you just like it when narratives walk you through that problem solving? Yeah. I'm sorry, Tim, I'm starting to break in here. You're gonna have to answer the question, Tim. You can't install with any of these big time travel conundrums. That's not what we're doing here today.

Oh, it's very quickly. Very quickly, I just want to say my hot opinion, which is I think Tom Cruise is our generation's runner. I feel like you, you, you, you feel that guy running and it's cinema. You know, so I feel like he's, I want to see him jump off a shit. Yeah, yeah. He's our runner.

Tim, please go ahead. Yeah, I'm not crazy about riddles. You know, like in the cool, in as much as riddles are like A-SAPs, Fables, in rhyme, I think that is like where I'm on board. I like the language of riddles. I like the rhythm of riddles. I'm not crazy about solving stuff, you know?

I feel like I always get sort of mad somewhere in a riddle. Sure. And I always have that impulse of like tell me more than I have the impulse of I'm gonna figure it out. Tim, that says a lot about me apparently, but it is sort of how I've interacted in riddles in my life. Tim, can I ask does that also translate? Because I find this to be true with what you're presenting right now,

if A, then B sort of style. Is this also true when you see magic? Are you someone where you're like, I don't care about what I saw, tell me immediately how it happened? No, I love, I love the flow in the way by a magic show. I love just like abandoning myself to the, to the wonder of that.

But that's a magic show. I love just like abandoning myself to the to the wonder of that. Um, but that's a magic show you can like submit to in a way that the other person is doesn't like hold the microphone to your face, right? Yeah. And every riddle. Every riddle someone's holding a microphone. It's Billy Ikener. Screaming submit.

Really? We should do a riddle on a street TikTok or something like Aping, uh, Billy Ikener. I think that we're gonna get killed Yeah, I don't like ask people. What are you talking about? She crazy Have you seen people all this street enough away from people? I will say the one real I think of when I hear riddles I'm sure people have brought this up before but the riddle from the hobbit the

Boxed-out-inges key or lid yet golden treasure inside is it I think I heard that a Very young age and I was like heard that a very young age, and I was like, no, that's, oh baby, that's something else. What an idea, what a concept. Well here, I'm excited about this because what I would love to do by the end of this episode, I would love to change one of your minds about Reynolds.

Allie, I would love to make you hate them Tim, I would love to make you love them. Okay. I'll also settle for no change. No changes also find with me. I think we're gonna do this then We do have some listener submitted riddles and occasionally I'll pull these from we have people email HR our podcast at gmail.com and leave us some riddles Occasionally people will put in their like subject line or somewhere in their message that they use these riddles in their D&D games Now we have you two who have an actual play podcast Also on the head gum network some hour and meeting those peers

And I thought what better what better way that to get you involved in something that I feel like will make you feel more Comfortable because it's something that you're used to right Meeting us where we are. Thank you. Exactly. So these first riddles are from Holly. We have Holly writes. This is their first riddle. They said for context, these come from a pathfinder campaign called Mummy's Mask. Do you have to play the Mummy's Mask campaign? No, but I'm so into mummies recently.

Whoa. Okay, you're in a mummy phase. They're just so funny to me, because like they don't, like they're not that scary. You know what I mean? Yeah, they can take it back, man, take it back. Don't say it. I just don't think mummies will ever scare me.

They're zombies with window dressing. Like it's truly yeah. And it's the idea of the mummy's curse, which I always find kind of like, they're kind of scary, but watch out for their mummy's curse. There's something very comic about, it's very coy. It's a very coy monster. I feel this is classic New York City elitism

because you just don't think mummies are gonna be a problem because you live in the big city But you're in real America These are daily Yeah, I live in second biggest city We actually live in mummy alley, which is like tornado alley, but way more higher Those were all like nicknames in high school. Yeah, exactly. Mummy alley. Mummy alley.

We never had a candidate on. You wrap your hands. Yeah, spinning. I was tornado. All right, so we here's the first one of Holly's riddles. Again, from a published path fighter, adventure path thing. So we probably can't get in trouble for reading these the first one the sky breathes against the mountains tall and makes their stony hearts to fall flame heats the mountains broken domes and makes a window of their bones that lies within the mountains grave

That's almost word for word the song fire coming out of a Monkeys Head, as read by Dennis Hopper on the Gorilla's album, I wanna say, oh boy, what's that called? There to be stupid. And we have told you to stop reading this Gorilla's album. It just did this hopper.

David, what do you do it? Is it like volcano? I can't tell if it's describing the action against the mountain or the mountain. Is it a volcano? I like that as can't tell if it's describing the action against the mountain or the mountain. Is it a volcano? I like that as an answer and it's not the correct answer, but you have my respect. I want to say I closed my eyes

and shut off all sensory input other than that. And it was many words put together that I did not follow. Yeah. I know you're gonna have to read it again. A I know you're going to have to read it again. A lot of images. I'd love to hear it again. Now, Erin, Ally is using one of your strategies.

Would you like to speak to how the closing your eye strategy works in practice? Ally, it took me weeks to figure it out, but that is exactly what I do. I close my eyes because otherwise I'll have a panic attack. I do want to have them read to riddle. I can be the only thing that century wise is coming at me or I'll have a complete nervous breakdown and break my computer screen. I'm incredible. Yeah, so you're on the right track. I do need to hear it again, JPC, because I...

I will let you hear it again. I do want to see a quick scene though. This is going to be a scene between Aaron and Tim. Aaron, you are going for a job interview, but you just have to have your eyes closed the entire time, where else you're going to have a panic attack and Tim, you are interviewing Aaron for this job. Hey, sorry we're late. We've had a few people coming through.

I hope you want to think right after this. No, no problem. Is this where the chair is? Yes, please, no problem. Is this where the chair is? Yeah, yes, yeah, no, uh, please sit right down. Okay. Okay. Uh, all right. Uh, hi, thank you so much for taking the time to see me today. Yeah, no, of course.

Um, and before we get into the resume or anything like that, I just like, I just like to get to know the person first and sort of get a feeling for, because in this office, it's not about what you do, it's about how you communicate what you're doing. Where are you? Marco!

Pol-polo. I'm behind the desk. Okay, yeah, sorry. I just, um, yeah, keep going. Sorry. Were you saying office culture? Yeah, in terms of office culture, we should keep sunglasses. You know, I get that you might be one of these young

These younger Gen Z types, but you know, we'd like to take our sunglasses off Sure and Yeah, sorry, I drew eyes on top of my eyes Hoping that you would notice that my eyes are closed, but I couldn't see what I was drawing, so I don't know if they turned out so good. No, no, no, those, so you didn't draw eyes, those are... Hirocliffs. Those...

A language that I've somehow seen in my dreams. Uh-oh, well thank you so much for taking the time to meet me. Elaine gets to like somehow see my dreams. Uh oh. Well, thank you so much for taking the time to be me. I'm going to have to hire you. I hire you. I hire you. See. I was like, I wonder if Tim's going to bring mummies in.

Tim, I will then bring you $20 that if you can bring mummies into every single scene that you're in today. You don't need to bend my money. It's going gonna happen. Yeah. Absolutely. I also, can I just, can I let the listener in on the fact that this is an audio medium to start with,

and Tim was playing a character across from a character whose eyes were closed, and he was gesturing the whole time. Yes, he was. There was a lot of waving and other things. I also, as a, as a peek behind the curtain, Aaron was improvising as a character who had their eyes closed with her eyes open, which I was like, yeah, you're able to.

That's the magic of improv. Can I let you guys in on something that shameful that happened to me this past weekend that is sort of haunting me? Please. Yes. So my boyfriend's family was in town, and we were at a fancy dinner one of the nights.

I was just tickulating and getting excited and telling a story, and I knocked over my glass of wine, and it went everywhere, and it spilled all over his sister. And it made me seem drunk. And I spilled all over her dress, and it was horrible. Better one. Then I went to the bathroom and texted Adel for a little while to calm down.

Wait, red or white? Aaron, red or white? Rose. Oh, the middle one. The middle one in the middle? Well, it's a summer spill, so that worked out. Yeah, but I wasn't even drunk. I was just excitedly telling a story

about Joseph and the amazing technical dream coat, which is like the worst possible moment for something like that to happen. Oh, it was horrible. Oh, I can't stop thinking about it. I have to ask though, is this the first time you've done something embarrassing in front of Sean's family like this?

Okay, good. So they kind of, this is part of the cool. I was gonna say, they have context for you. I think they're not. I do appreciate you spilling the wine on his sister, while telling a story about clothing that has additional color to it.

I think that's very fun. I think that's a very good, that's the best case scenario. Or actually best case scenario. It's when you make a mistake. The horrible mistake that it thematically connects the conversation. That is the best case scenario is you spill it, but she's kind of crouched and she drinks it all in one gulp. Yes.

And then like just head out. Yeah, that's that's that's basically I'm sorry. I'm sorry. And his absolute horror material. That's like Twin Peaks, who's the guy who's like bending down and just like shows up. Okay. His name. Oh, Bob, that's what I'm thinking. Yes, who's the guy who's bending down and just shows up. His name.

Oh, God. Let's wrap the game. Oh, yes. Okay, so we do have to, we, I breathe the riddle one more time. Everyone's very close. Here he is. The sky breathes against the mountains tall and makes their stony hearts to fall. Flane heats the mountains broken domes and makes a window of their bones.

What lies within the mountains grave? Here's the thing. I think I said that lies within the mountains grave, but which is what it says. I think it is what lies within the mountains grave. Lava? Because there's a question mark. It is not lava. So I'm not actually talking about real mountains here. Yes, it's like a brain or something. It kind of is a male. It is not cold. Diamonds. It's not diamonds. Jams. Jams. I'm actually talking about the Jams.

Earth stuff. Is it generally earth stuff? Earth of the earth. It's so wild. Well, if Arnie were here to say, it'd be so fun. It'd be so funny if the answer was just earth stuff. Well, if Arnie were here to say, it'd be so funny if the answer was just earth stuff. And here on Hyrule Road, we do want to talk about earth stuff. Yes, thank you. Tim is correct and that it is earth stuff that we are talking about. You've got the general category. We're looking for a specific thing. No, I want dirt, water,

uh, water, oil, fossil, fossils are oil people who are in the mountain for some reason. I can't. I think here's the line that I think is going to be the easiest three easiest for you to a, a, a queue into. Yeah. The lane heats the mountains, broken domes, and makes a window of their bones. So that would be volcano, right?

Yeah. Because the top of a volcano. Oh, yeah. Can you see volcano? Yeah, that's the answer. Oh, thank you. Oh, that was the first thing. That was the first thing that it was.

Wait, it was so good. Of course, it's not the answer. Oh. You're not saying it. Oh, my God. No, it's not that. Well, you totally caught me. I thought this was going to be like a lava magma thing where it's like, I love actually, it's still in a mountain.

Oh, thank you. This is such a hostile podcast. For being her little podcast, it's such an unpleasant place to be. That's why we only do two riddles per episode now. So, but this is what the thing about riddles too is that I heard my voice go, but we already said that. That was the first thing.

It's like, the emotional reality of answering a riddle for. Yeah. Does not bring alive the most generous and compelling person. That's so true. That's the same for all of us. We, I will miss answers all the time when it's just Adam and Aaron. So I'm trying my best to like hear everyone say their answers, but I don't, I truly don't think I've heard the right answer yet. Okay, so the part of that that I'll come into even closer is makes a window of their boats. Okay. Sandler glass. It's.

Wow. I don't think that's how Sand is made. Wow. I do want to see. I don't think that's how Sand is made though. Oh god. I think, I think,'t think that's how sand is made though. I think I think I think this is not how sand is you cool Plus, okay, let's go to the sand makers I'm just I don't think I'm crazy here that the you know the assumed reality of this riddle was like landlocked

I love how whenever we watch one of our guests get like flip into a rage over riddle me. I don't JPC just start nodding. We know and we're sorry. We get it. We've shrugged our load onto someone else. I don't want to see you seeing JPC and Allie, you are two, you're two friends who are hanging at the beach. This is a nice sunny day.

You're taking advantage of the weather to hang on the beach, but you're both very, you use sort of overly flower, flowery sort of language to describe everything you're doing to where it's almost impenetrable. The crunch of the bones of mother earth between my felenges of the foot. Extraordinary. Yes, and I think of the whisper of air upon my face. My epidermis and potions. What? Me thinks to submerge my corporeal form upon the wet spittle of the gods, pugling in gentle oscillations of the mighty Poisonous domain. Ah, Yerika!

Tidinal tidings upon us shall we disand fully exchange our cloths for pure birth suit. Dally Ho! But a thought does cross upon by their own hair. Agony, agony! Retreat! The twine between the twigs, the waves must dry ourselves under the wall of hot fire burning upon the heavens. Hey, what? Hey, hey, so sorry to interrupt, I just, our kids, our kids are here, they can hear everything you're saying, so this is a family beach if you guys wouldn't mind.

I'm not trying to get in the way of any one stuff, just give you a hand. Eureka, dad, Eureka, tidings, Eureka tidings, tidings, tidings. So this is a family beach if you guys went mine. I'm not trying to get in the way of anyone's stuff. Just give you. Eureka, dad, Eureka, tidings, Eureka tidings, Eureka tidings. Thanks a lot, God. Thanks a lot, God. Oh. Ah. Halfway through, I only pictured, like Ian McClellan and Maggie Smith doing this.

Where it's like instead of Shakespeare in the park, it's like Shakespeare on the beach. It truly would be a problem. You guys sounded like me and my improvised Shakespeare audition. Being like, um, tidings, um, in my- In my- In my night kept saying, sounds. Somebody would say something I go, Zounds good, sir.

My favorite of this exchange was a perchant, perchant, what? I, uh, I never auditioned for him for his Shakespeare, but he used to play like Shakespeare games and comedy sports. chance per chance. What? I, uh, I never auditioned for him for I shake spare, but he used to play like Shakespeare games and comedy sports. And the one thing that I would always just keep in my pocket that would always give a laugh is calling a character portfolio. Very nice. That's a strong, strong, strong comedy sports was all about like having three jokes and then just keeping the pocket for every joke. like having three jokes and then just keeping the pocket for every job. All right, we can, I want to do, I want to do one more riddle before we take a little break. So let's get to the next one.

These are, again, these are hollies riddles, not really, I guess, because they just do it from a pet, it doesn't matter. These are hollies riddles. They have no weight, no shape, no size, yet all well-known when they arise. Minions. Can you be more specific of the three minions we're looking for here, Adam? Oh, smells. Yeah, I want to say smells grumpy and banana. Are those three?

Well, somebody's seen the movies. Okay, we're only halfway through. The wordless, tumeless, tongueless two, they sing a song of pain. Felt true. What are they? It smells. It is not smells. Wind. Is it like wind chimes? It is. It is not wind. Is it a musical answer?

No, no, no, shape, no size. Get all well know when they arise. It is not a musical instrument. Oh, crushes is good. Through wordless, tombless, tongueless, too, they sing a song of painful, true. I'm, I'm reply to you. Give it to them.

Give it to them. Give it to them. Is it like true love or something? It's not, it's not, but I do, I do kind of like those as answers. I'm reply to love crushes. Is this mommy themed? Who's it?

Is it a curse? It's not mummy. I guess technically this whole episode is mummy themed. Oh, and we made it mummy themed. I'm so sorry, just to go back a few minutes. I do want to mention, you know I was playing that kid on the beach. Yeah, my dad was upset.

My dad is a mummy, I should just say. So Aaron, you're still on the hook for $20 And Casey whatever we can do in post to make it clear that Sure was a mummy real raspy death rattle. Yeah, you must have like a mummy Yeah The monster mash I wonder if I have a mummy filter No, man, that's a bummer.

Ugh. What good is a soundboard if you don't have a fucking mummy filter? That's what's also I find so fine is that there's no characterization you can really do that people are going to go, oh, that's mummy, do you know? Yeah. Yeah, you have to have toilet paper around yourself. The visual, visual monster. I've got... Rrr a swarm of locusts

Horrifying that was horrible And we should say listener if you heard that sound it's too late you you will Dying is too harsh you will will dying is too harsh. You will. Not one guy who decided to take an edible for the. Freaking out. Kyle. Kyle, we're coming for you. Oh, God, I forgot people. Listen to this. Hi, we have responsibility. We have a responsibility.

What our eyes is from its tomb when you invade its long room. It's long something. You know, it's long. It's a propagus. Is that a mommy playing a flute? I don't really know what my soundboard could do. So I just got a click into things that I think will be evil. And JPC, is this, this is nothing to do with music?

Because you say it's sing a sad song. It's not. The wordless, tuneless, tongueless two, they sing a song of painful trail. Two, to T-O-O, but that's a great question. Is this like a concept or idea? No, it is, yeah, it's not a concept or idea. It's literal, yes.

So what's weightless, but it's like a thing. It's a sound that you can make that is wordless, tuneless, and tongueless. It's a sound that you can make that is worthless, tuneless and tongueless. Whistle? No, do you? Is it actually tuneless? A fart.

A fart. A burp. Aaron, a fart? Ah, hold on. Hold on, let me go through. I'm gonna go through the riddle, Aaron, and you tell me a fart works for these. No way.

Don't hold me accountable. No shape, no size. So far, I think we're good, right? Yet all know when they arise. I think we all know what what what a fart is. Is it really a real tune list? Wordless, tuneless, tongueless too. They sing a song of pain full true. Well, tuneless is fifty three. But a fart is like is a fart is full of tune. Yeah, because sometimes it's like, sometimes it's like free. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And sometimes it's I think too less is hard to because I think like everything has kind of a tune to it. I think fart is the closest and without going over.

Without going over. Is it like a tummy rumble? No, it's not a tummy rumble, but you're good. You're good with a sound that you can physically make. I don't know if it's not a tummy rumble, but you're good. You're good with a sound that you can physically make. I don't know if Tim said hunger, is it hunger? It's not hunger. It's not concept, it's a concept. It's a concept. No. Saying a song of painful true,

this would be something that you would do if you were like in a lot of pain. Oh, cry. Squirrel. Squirrel. Squirrel. I will take squirrel, I think Tim, Tim, do you say squirrel? I said squirrel.

I think squirrel is closest to that going over the answer is screamed though. That's not toonless. That's not toonless though. Wait, was there tongueless or did I just add that? The way I scream is yeah. Yeah, I guess. Do you need your tongue to scream? Ah, ah, no you don't.

Boo, this right al-boo. I do like the tips at squeal. And I said scream and JPG, JPG says, uh, I'm going to give it to squeal because the answer is scream. Well, school was first though. Squill, I feel like squeal was first and I feel like squeal is qualified. The squeal is a scream.

Yeah. Well, yeah, it's more embarrassing scream, right? Yeah. Yeah. Yes. But the tonality, the music, how dody of them are different because of their tunes. These things have tunes. Every sound we make is just another gesture onto the canvas of, of Sonic. I gotta be honest, I liked mummy Tim way better.

I want to see the quickest of scenes before we go to break. Tim, you are a tuneless Tony, one of the big Mofiosa in town. Ali, you are screaming Sammy, another one of the Mofiosa in town. And Aaron has threatened to squeal on you too, so you're sort of trying to intimidate her and to not, and to not writing you out. Look. Even now I speak to the... People, what's so funny? I'm sorry, I won't go, I won't go. You're making these faces, you're making these faces whenever we try to

intimidate you. You're making these funny little faces as if he always, always, always used to make us laugh. He always used to. Yeah. Seen. So I was laughing because I was trying to be toonless. But then I just said, I just did it base.

So you see, before we get, before this break, we just got to talk about too bad. Sorry. We should say there is much like Peewee's playhouse. There is a magic word or sound you can make. Allie, you couldn't have known this, but anyone who had any time on this show is a guest. Mixed indirectly or directly, the Howard Dean scream,

they do immediately win $20 from Aaron. So we're going to go to break, we're going to get you your $20. Casey replaced the Howard Dean screen with Alice. Great. We should have both on our sound board for now on. Great. And we'll be right back with more mamis.

middle of the woods here. I am sort of at an empath. I can't decide whether or not to go this way or this way. I'm having a hard time choosing a path. You know, they're never truly is a middle of the woods. Isn't it funny to think about something like that? Like, they're never truly is a middle. No, this is the middle. Okay, this is it. Addle, can you help? Yeah, actually. So as per Robert Frost, I don't know if you know his poems, he has a poem called Better Help. I believe this is written in the 1800s, but it still stands true today more than ever.

Because sometimes Aaron and life were faced with tough choices, and the path forward isn't always clear whether you're dealing with decisions around career relationships, being stuck in the middle of the woods.

Isn't that fun to think about? All you have to do is just fill out a brief questionnaire to get matched with a license therapist, and you can switch therapists at any time for no additional charge.

Yes, that is. Although toilet paper was involved. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Okay, listeners, if we're gonna use sleuths out there trying to solve that rental. This might become a crass, but like every piece of shit is kind of like a mummy if you've wiped it

in the right way. Two far, two more, two far. Well, actually, I have a ton of questions about that. And that's why I said in the right way. That's why I said in the right way. No, that's the part we have questions about. Yeah, truly, the fact that you think that's the right way is that's my thing. You have the right way for the mummy.

You are all taking this in a really weird way. I said something super normal. Everyone's reacting as if we have, I think we have a couple more, a couple more of Holly's Reynolds. Great.

Okay. This one, I think, will be kind of difficult to get, I think. Bear trap? A get, I think. Bear trap. A comb, a brush. Little comb's good. Oh, that is great. It is more, it is not figurative teeth. I guess are those figurative teeth?

No, they're literally teeth, it's just what they're called. This is more like a creature. Oh, it's like a fucked up piano. Okay, so this like a fucked up piano Tim you're taking piano lessons and add all your the piano and You're kind of a monster though whenever you want to scare Tim Yes, okay, yeah crack your fingers more Hello each knuckle

Unless you start with the jaws theme Sure, that's a half step right? Nope I think I heard the long go off. I think that's a time. Don't go. Don't go. Don't go. I need you No, at least I go let go my You are my piano. I'm I'm Chris Martin, he affirms. And technically, I think a leak, Chris Martin has the presence of a mummy. So Tim, you're still on track to win that $20.

Those piercing blue eyes. Yes. His rather mummiation is cursed albums. I did look it up. And all is a tool. It's a small pointed tool used for piercing holes, especially in leather. The answer is shoe. Oh, that's so cute. I feel like Ali was listening when I said that this was a creature. And I feel like a lot of people have been saying non-creature. Right. Okay. Oh, piano can't be a creature. Come on.

Root. Wait, can you? I just got to hear it again. There's some bizarre ride fuck of, listen to it real quickly and then listen to an improv too. Yeah. It's like impossible to pay attention. It's like water, bro. Thank you. Yeah. Oh my gosh.

Finally, some validation. Ali and I are both here. You affirm each and every one of you in your own special ways. Oh, yes. We love the first. And if you listen to this podcast special ways. Oh, yes. We love the first one. And if you're listening to this podcast, hi, don't worry. Kyle.

We'll take it slow. Okay, that was a chainsaw. That's a matter of time. Okay, so four also have I for punching through. Four. Four knives have I for cutting too. 10 friends above and 10 below to grind up pieces of my foe. What am I?

Spider or back to back spider? It's not a back to back spider. It is a creature. We are literally talking about the teeth that this creature has. It's got to be an insect. What's the first line again? The very first line? Everyone is making me say this word, but I'm not confident. Four alls have eye for punching through. Those would be like the guys. Is it a crab? It's gonna be four canines.

Oh, crab for canines. That is four, you have four canines. Four knives have I for cutting too. Canines. No. Awe. That would be nice. Four cloth.

No, it's a different type of tooth. By cuspid. Awe. Bikes. Bikes. Not sloths. Here's the thing. I don't know how you would ever know this.

Like, are you guys bitch? She does know how many, like what kind of teeth are in, what kind of animals that I have? The one thing I know about teeth, zoo books, Tim has zoo books, which is, I mean, they have zoo books at the right.

What if they're weight and gold as a child? The only thing I know is that hyenas have like the most, in this main, and I even be correct, they could be like algators, but I've heard that hyenas have the most crushing power with their teeth. Yeah, beef kicks for it. They're told beef kicks.

I know beefers have teeth that don't stop growing, which is why they have to chew them down. Yes, yes, or they'll go through their bottom lip. These are really great animal facts. No, these are helpful for the picture for this. Is it a fish? Is it a lay out creature or a water creature? Land creature over in badger. I just the four knives is confusing to me because I think claws, I would think, you know, more. All of these are describing types of teeth. So four, all of us have eye for punching through our canines. Yeah.

The four knives are the shorter than a sil, can I heal teeth? Carnea, something. Carnea, so does teeth. It means stick. And then the 10 above and 10 below are the 20 other teeth.

There's a picture that has. Wait, wait, I have a great question. This has worked before. GPC, if there was a Pixar-type movie made where this creature was a character, what would their voice sound like? Smart. Okay, that is great, Eric.

This has worked one time before, so I'll... We got a bro off of this. We got a bro off of this. You did the perfect umbrella voice. It was my favorite moment from this show. Okay. Okay, this is what that creature would sound like. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, realized it was nothing. As a fluke, as a total fluke. Oh, is it a fluke?

Hey Jimmy Clear, I realized it was nothing before. I had to do the thing. Oh, is it a, it's Snagelpus, that was Snagelpus. It's a panther. It's not a panther. You're a very close tiger, leopard, it's a type of cat. It's a, a lot.

Lepard. Tim got it, it is a lion. No. Oh it's it. I don't want to be rude, but can I rail against the riddle? Yeah, oh my god go. We do have a Zactyl Arroca segment if you'd like to This is from the Pathfinder Corporation, so feel free to be as brutal as you want to be Um, I think So I feel like part it's like sort of like jeopardy questions, right? Like you ideally want to have clues that like get you in to the answer,

but who thinks about like the type of an amount, the amount of teeth different animals have are not like common knowledge enough to lead you anywhere. And a lion has so many other cultural significance and physical signifiers that we think about that in this, going for this, not doing any of that, to get us closer to understanding the numbers, I just think.

I do what I see as soon. Is it Pathfinder Secondary World, too? Yeah, right. Can you be like, it's a winged lion with... Yeah, you're a halos. Is this a fucking rockashar or whatever? Yeah, also. This is a completely agree with you.

Shasa. Your anger is justified. Great. What's your scene that you like to see? I just very quickly, I do want to plug the new season of justified, justified prime evil, coming soon to Hulu. Tim, you're going to be playing.

Hold on, hold on, is there really a new season of justify? 100%. It's set into Troy. Wednesday, right? Yeah, it's based on one of the better Elmore Leonard novels. I actually have something that I have to do right now, so I have to go. Tim, you're going to be playing a lion who's, you're on like a talk show, like a nighttime talk show.

And not like that today, you're on this talk show kind of discussing the misunderstandings of lions and how lions are so much more than just claws and teeth. Aaron, you are the host of this talk show and you're just trying to better understand this creature. Thank you so much for coming on tonight. What a dream this has been. Oh, thank you so much for having me. This is a really fantastic. Okay, I'm going to put my paws in front of my mouth.

So you don't have to see my terrifying teeth when I talk Hey, I know you're scared, but there's more to lines and their claws and teeth Yeah, in fact People always compare big cats by their Their coach or their little differences, but really it's about the internal lives that you can really set a lion apart. Okay, yeah. Are you hungry right now?

I am not hungry. In fact, I'm feeling quite courageous, which is how you know I'm a lion. Lions are courageous. And it looks like this, like they hope to get a little lion. Can you take a little page from a lion, a queue from a lion's page, a page from a lion's book, with a little more courage. We added this in post so we can take whatever you want. That's cowardly to me. See, see, that's cowardly to me. Do it live. See, they like it. Yeah, I heard that you recently went on a cruise and some wacky things happen.

So, cruises are all right if you're not one of the more famous animals in the world. You know, I came into a lax. Everyone's coming up. Everyone's coming up. You're trying not to be rude. You try not to be rude. But at a certain point, you go, hey, can I enjoy some time with my family for a little bit? Well, I said not to be rude. But at a certain point you go, hey, can I enjoy some time with my family for a little bit?

Well, I said that to a Panther. I am so scared right now. And a Panther is just another style of leopard apparently. So I thought, we can get that part of it up. We can get that part up. I'm saying, I'm saying. Wow, the audience really the good turn. You're going to learn how more privileges JPC.

It's so helpful, just to speak, just to speak, the comedic nuts and bolts for a second, it is so helpful for my whole thing to have someone giving ironic cheers and upcoming boo booths. It like really puts my whole thing into the right frame. Tim, have you heard of that? I also just gonna say I think we made podcast history because I was a scene

about mommy lion. Yeah. I think so. I think so. Very cool. The fan art. It's coming in already. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. The rare Midwestern mummy lion.

Okay, look, Holly has one last, Holly has one last riddle. Now, that last one I totally agree with 10, and I honestly agree with everyone. You really had to know specifically about a lion's teeth to get the answer to that one, otherwise you're just guessing. Holly says that they gave this one to their team. This is one that Holly invented. And the players in Holly's campaign called it total bullshit. So, yeah, Holly, good work. So I like it. If you thought that last one was hard to part, this one might be a little tricky. Holly agrees. And Holly also said that they learned an important lesson about player knowledge and what to

what to what you could expect that if players, but here's a moral, Fables. It all comes to the Fable. This one's a little longer. The story goes or the one we've all been told, there was a king who always flew too high, and then he fell too low. And so he called all his wise men to the hall and begged them for the answer to the rising and the fall. And people sang of how they came back with a ring, a simple plain adornment, unbefitting of a king.

Though gyms at lacked, it was engraved in gold with black, four words around the band and they proclaimed. This sounds like Jeff. Jeff what at the gyms in it? This is what I was thinking of earlier. I was thinking about this. Don't leave me baby. Wait, are we guessing the words? You're the, I think that's the best thing. You're guessing the four words that are engraved upon this band. Mummy, mummy, mummy, mummy. Mummy, mummy, mummy, mummy, mummy.

Here's the thing. I think that if you don't know this answer immediately, you'll probably never get it. I don't expect, I don't expect to add all to ever get this. It's just like a sex thing. Wow, dude. Great self roast. I love.

Perfect self roast. Oh man, I respected that self roast. Thank you. Thank you. Dude, you have to give me the recipe for that self-rosht. Thank you. Thank you. Dude, you have to give me the recipe for that self-rosht. I know you're going to hate this, but can you read it again? Yeah. Okay. Uh, the story goes or so the one we've all been told. And I take issue with we've all been told.

I think a certain people have been told this and some haven't. There was a king who always flew too high and then he fell too low. And so he called his wise men to the hall and begged for them to answer the rising in the fall. And people saying of how they came back with a ring, a simple plain and ordment unbefitting of a king. Though gyms at lacked, it wasn't graved in gold with black, four words around the band and they proclaimed. So it's a Bible thing. The Aaron, this is a Bible thing and that, and not a sex thing, but that's why Adel is gonna have trouble.

I was really gonna say, what did I grow up without? And I was gonna say this is either about Christianity or dads. Yes. Wait, what about, is it something like he is risen? Good. Yeah. It's sweet.

This is, this is, Adel was worried about Christianity. I guess it is part of Christianity, but this is more old Testament. I think it more old Testament. So it's not the Christ has returned. No, it is not the Christ has returned. It was Adam's fault. I'm, it's okay.

No, it's not. Here's the, here's the thing. I have read the entire Bible for, for spite. And I don't strongly even remember this part. I know it's a this story. I don't remember the exact story here. So it's pretty not a part of it. It's about the parable of King Solomon. Is that is that doing anything for anyone? Oh, the he pulled the baby in half. The baby in half. Yeah. See, that's the part of Solomon that I would know about the like, hey, cut the baby's full to baby, everybody's happy.

This is like a different thing. And then the mom was like, the true mom was like, wait, wait, don't cut the baby. Just let her have it. And King's all was like, oh, that worked out. Yeah, I got all shit. I was thinking about that. I love to take your Bible class. Get the baby with the baby, everyone's happy. I do like the idea that Holly is out there running

like a sort of like old testament world fanfic that finder go now align with the old testament. I'm in. I mean, Holly also assumed that this one was just like common knowledge. Then everybody would know, but yeah, this is the part where you realize, oh, my childhood was actually weird. I have like a different childhood than everybody else. I know. So here are the four words.

I will give them to you and you can tell me if this sounds familiar. Okay. Do it slowly. Do it slowly. Okay. I'll give you an opportunity to steal. Yeah. Yeah.

This. Two. Shell pass. Shell pass. Shell pass. Yes. It is Shell pass. That is the wisdom of King Solomon.

How he wrote what I assumed was a well-known bearable. But players disagreed that this was common knowledge and were unable to solve it. I did learn a good lesson as a GM though about not putting puzzles based on what I assume my players will know. Doesn't that also sound like something about like like shit like this two will pass? Is that something? Shed disgusting. Why would you talk like that? I, you know what? You're right. I brought up shit and that's gross.

And I shouldn't have done that. And that's what we're doing in the proper context. And I have been thinking about how to wrap. It doesn't matter. But I do have a, I, I, and we can talk about this off pod, but I do think I have a way to do it the right way for a mummy. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Cool. I don't like this, because it has to be before it hits the water and I don't want it.

It's not like that. I don't know. We're thinking the same way, yes. Okay, cool. So we got the same way. We know the same way. We have the method, we'll talk to you all about it after. Yeah.

I mean, I think this Tuchel Pass, I think, has sort of like jumped away from whatever source material was at this point, you know? Yeah. Because I feel like, yeah, we all know this two-shell pass. That's like a... That's like a... It goes on.

Yeah. So, it's like, but I don't connect that to Solomon. And I feel like I've read the Bible. I feel like I know a lot of Bible stories. I forgot about this one for sure. Yeah. Yeah. I would just like to say, this two-shell pass,

that's a dope thing to have on a ring too That's I I love the sentiment behind this too shall pass the impermanence of everything But I'd rather have gems Yeah, resale value on that ring plummeted hey speaking of plummeting resale value ring plummeted. Hey, speaking of plummeting resale value. What about bad segue? We would love to take some time to plug some of our projects. Tim, we can start with you because you had to go second the first time. What would you like to plug? So I got to show at Littlefield on July 25th, which I think is the day before this is coming out. Now, one's called Made of Bugs. I do it some months, not every month, but some months.

But I do have a show on August 29th at Union Hall in Brooklyn, New York called Tim Platt Fighting Game Live, where it's a bunch of comedians who pretend that they are controlling, um, made up like moral combat characters and then fight each other. It's very improv-y and gamy and it should be a whole lot of fun. And check out Rood Tales of Magic on the Headgun Network and Odee's Those Stars of Space, which is that same Rood Tales crew all produced by Bucket of Milk. Oh yeah. Very cool. Allie Fisher, do you have anything that you would like to plug in? I will remind you, feel free to plug things that are coming up in the future and not necessarily things that happened yesterday

that people care really take advantage of. Not necessarily though. Thank you for saying that to say all this. That left some wiggle room for me to be in the future. Oh, Tim, that wasn't about you. That wasn't about you, Tim. Tim, I'm not sure at all. It's like a previous guest that of,

sorry pal, you get the mummy's curse. Oh no. Oh no. Oh yes. A busy. Sorry, I'm done, I'm done. Yeah, so the same bucket of milk podcast, the Tim just plugged, retail's a magic, and oh, these are the stars of space.

Every once in a while, you might catch a riddle, so tune in. Wow. And then I edit a bunch of really wonderful books at Tor Books, and I, you know, I don't want to plug any of them specifically, because I don't write them. I simply edit them. But if you go to my Twitter page at Ali Fisher Al A F S H E R You'll see me promoting a lot of books and you should just buy them all as what you should do Cool. Oh, yeah, that's very cool. Addle is there anything that you would like to plug?

Yes, I was recently a guest on the Dungeon radio hour podcast So please check out my appearance on that and all the other episodes of that. I also want to plug JPC's impression earlier. I think now that I found out it was Lion, I think the, was actually fantastic, because that's like the Judy Garland Wizard of Oz Lion, so I should have done that. Then I also, lastly, want to plug, if you've been listening to this whole episode and you were like, Tim Platte said, a lot of the rings riddle up top.

And I have never heard this before. What is the answer? The answer my dear friend is Tim, you want to say? It's an egg. It's an egg. A box without an egg. A box without an egg. A box without an egg.

A box without an egg. A box without an egg. A box without an egg. A box without an egg. A box without an egg. A box without an egg. A box without an egg. A box without an egg. A box without an egg. A box without an egg. A box without an egg. A box without hinges key or lid yet golden treasure inside is hood

The answer is egg how disappointed were you when the hobbit movie was bad anyone that Like a dark history with the hobbit movie. I didn't see it. It's one of those By like godfather read me and my brothers all the hobbit when we were too young before we could read You know, so he like read all that stuff out loud And it's one of those things where you're like, when I see this adapted in the media, it's just not gonna be the thing for me. So I might as well remove myself from the equation and not get mad, you know.

That's what you're doing. Not to one up, but in fourth grade, and we did the play, the hobbit, and I was smog. And so like, how can anyone ever compare with the true experience of being the dragon? Yeah, you're in it. You were in it. Yeah. Are you in anything to plug? Yes, I was recently on the DePodcast, which is John Mackey's podcast, and I had the best time. It's like one of the hardest I've ever left this year.

So I'd recommend checking that out. It's a great podcast. Also check out sitcom D&D where someone from Routails of Magic is going to be on our season, our upcoming season. So check it out. Wow. Exciting. JPC, do you have a review to read? Thank God. Somebody asked me to read a review. Yes. And if you want to get a review featured on the show, you can always see the five star review anywhere that you read it leave reviews So as long as it's five stars and as long as it's written down I might read it Hey today I'm reading one from TC 87 got that second C in there a five star review from Tom. He him okay to say my name

This is JPC these are my words no one else's I need to leave the show forever because I put my pants so hard I broke my butt and I can't solve riddles without my butt. I know what you're thinking. JPC, surely your butt will heal in time and you can come back, but no, it's broken forever. That's how hard I put my pants. So this is my final goodbye. And I'd like to leave you with these parting words. Bad news gang. All right, Adela and Aaron both looking down at their phones. They did not take the bad news gang prompt. I'm listening. I'm listening. Wow. Sorry, Tom. Sorry, Tom, you did not take the bad news game prompt. I'm listening. I'm listening. Wow. Sorry, Tom.

Sorry, Tom. You didn't get the bad news game prompt, but you didn't get two. I'm listening. It's probably. Janet Barney is in a Zencaster room alone. And Adela and I were addressing that problem. All right, Tom. So if you're wondering why that prompt was a big failure, that's your fault.

Sorry, buddy. Yes, you're fault, the bad news game. Yeah. No, it's you late. Yeah. If you late for the bad news game. Bad news, we weren't listening, see? Jupiter.
