Welcome back to “Are You The Spy?” Panelists must name clues that point to potential topics like chess, Darth Vader, or waffles. One spy doesn’t know the topic they’re trying to discuss, and must figure it out before the rest of the group figures them out. In this episode, players put their knowledge (or lack thereof) of Incomparable podcasts, Star Wars characters, board games, and breakfast foods to good use.

It’s some of our most diabolical questions yet, as panelists try to identify cryptic cryptids, figure who uttered those memorable (or not so memorable) last words, and untangle some mashed-up Disney movies. Chip Sudderth, Quinn Rose, and Steve Lutz take on Kelly Guimont, Glenn Fleishman, and Liz Myles for the title.

It’s time for more Low Definition, the game show that builds your word power! But with poop jokes! We also investigate government agencies, ponder the final words of French philosophers, and ponder some questionable input from the users of Google.

One spy doesn’t know the topic they’re trying to discuss, and must figure it out before the rest of the group figures them out. In this episode, players put their knowledge (or lack thereof) of cryptids, Hogwarts classes, blockbuster franchises, and Cats (2019) to good use.
