Episode 2: Episode 42: Apparently a Hero to Some Nerds
Manage episode 345667778 series 2941522
Contestants: Henry Stringer, Akiva Fox, Nathan Crissey
What could be scarier than a "deranged cheese monster"? Well, for quizzers, it would have to be forgetting the name of someone you've spent time with on multiple occasions, right when you're asked a question about them. Yes, this episode's clever contestants hit highs and lows, mixing painfully close misses with one of the best "fraud" answers I've ever seen, as we traverse worlds as diverse as mathematics, Mario Kart, Shakespeare, cocktails, tuba, Pokémon, and competitive yo-yo'ing (really!). Plus, just in time for Halloween, there's a deranged cheese monster.
Deranged cheese monster.
NOTE: Like E35, this one ends with ~15m of wrap-up chatter, including a fascinating callback to E32, a discussion of how to transport giant novelty checks, and some amazing yo-yo tricks that unfortunately don't translate to an audio format.
