The Incomparable

286 Technically Canadian

It’s the 50th edition of Random Pursuit! Erika was too lazy to do anything that took extra work, so this is basically a regular episode. But we do have a new player — who even tried to study! Plus, it’s mostly Canadians — and all players who live in Commonwealth nations, so maybe we can call this a slightly belated Canada Day episode?

285 There Used To Be Guano Here

And now, the conclusion! Having left our players (and our listeners) on a cliffhanger last time, a slightly diminished crew try to make their way through, and eventually off, the Cursed Island.

284 South By Northwest

Arrrr, it be another Parsely Games adventure, this time an old timey pirate adventure as our players visit ye olde Cursed Island! Avast! Hold hard!

283 Dan Sold One Book to Every American

Disregarding popular demand, Inestimable is back with another installment that pits panelists against numbers and Glenn against himself. Scorekeeper Tony helps keep chaos at bay—or causes more?—by insisting on the correct number of U.S. states, what a pyramid truly is, and why Americans are left handed. It’s in this don’t-miss episode of Inestimable that we will forgive you for missing.

282 Psychedelic Pizza

Welcome back to Missed Connections, a game in which our contestants must make four colorful word connections while guessing tricky (some might say problematically tricky) word clues. This episode was devised by a monstrous figure who lurks in the darkness, namely our own Brian Hamilton. Can Lex and Monty defeat Tony and Dan? Only time, and words, will tell.

281 I Have No Hate Towards Other Mystical Creatures

It’s another instalment of You Think You Know Me! how well do you think each of the contestants know about each other? How well do you think they know themselves?

280 How Long Do We Have To Do This?

A new game! Each round, players are presented with an assortment of letters. They must retcon the best initialism for the round’s category and hope that everyone else votes for theirs. And since each round is drawn at random, host Lex gets to play, too! Will someone beat Lex at what is literally his own game?

279 Number One Moon

It’s time to Mind Meld again, where five contestants across six rounds have second thoughts about being wrong in order to be at one with each other for points. Except for the seventh round, where they have to be right.

278 Let’s Lean into the Weirdness

Welcome back to “Inconceivable!”, the show that tests two teams’ knowledge of the nerdy, the useless, and the obscure.

This time around, our panelists must divine means of telling the future, identify portrayers of the world’s greatest detective not named Batman, and untangle mashed-up superhero song titles. Kathy Campbell, Chip Sudderth, and Shelly Brisbin take on Monty Ashley, Annette Wierstra, and Tony Sindelar in a battle of wits to the pain as host Dan Moren and scorekeeper Lex Friedman keep order.

277 The Time is Still the Future

Action Castle returns! This time, the players navigate the charred remains of post apocalyptic Ne Ork City. Watch out for rat people and burning rivers! Another amusing and entertaining text adventure game from Parsley Games!
