Episode 19: Episode 39: Pierre Menard's Recliner of Rage
Manage episode 335384123 series 2941522
Contestants: Mike Jeziorski, Tucker Warner, Jack Rousseau
Enjoy Episode 10? Then you'll love this SUPER SIZED reunion of all three members of that classic lineup, now with 95% less baseball. Never fear, though, for I Am the Pretty Thing that Writes the Questions, and so we make up for it with more nods to growing up in Illinois than a Sufjan Stevens album, more video games than a Lana Del Rey album, and more references to illicit drugs than a Willie Nelson album. Get ready to pull the Walker, Texas Ranger lever and discover the hidden connections between Tucker and 24, Conan O'Brien and Jorge Luis Borges, Neil Patrick Harris and ZZ Top, a huntress from Greek mythology and a terrorist action thriller set during Jesus' crucifixion, a billionaire heiress and her desire to cosplay as a poor person, and, of course, Marjorie Merriweather Post and the entire known universe in this longest-ever episode of Recreational Thinking! (Yes, it's so long that I elected to extend it by including at the end a discussion of how long it is.)
