Old Man Puzzles just keeps Riddling along

“What has (afaik) six legs, six arms, three brains, and a determination to solve weird and often wacky riddles? Adal Rifai, JPC, and Erin Keif. If you are already listening to this podcast, chances are you were listening to their other stuff already and so you get it. These three friends make it feel like you’re just hanging out with them on a drizzly Thursday during a power cut in a holiday cabin, and the only thing for entertainment is an esoteric book of riddles. It’s clear that they know each other well, so the rapport isn’t forced, but they also don’t rely on their own in-jokes for humour that would make it hard for random listeners to connect. The joy of this podcast isn’t so much in getting a big brain workout, but in listening to the hosts get angry with the bizarre clues and set ups, come up with their own (often cleverer) solutions, and roleplaying their favourite parts.
Adal encourages listeners to send in their own riddles or lateral thinking puzzles for the team to solve, and I would guess that whichever ones make JPC froth at the mouth the most will be the most successful.
If you like talking podcasts to keep you company while you do something else, but find Lore too creepy, This American Life too long-winded, and Stuff You Should Know too educational... this might be for you.”

“I so want to like this podcast. I have been a listener of Hello From The Magic Tavern from the beginning and love Adal. He is such a funny improvisor. The co-hosts of this podcast are good too. The chemistry between the three of them is great. But the riddles! Hosts, if you are reading, please,...”Read full review »

“Sounds like every other poorly thought out podcast where three friends start recording about 5 minutes after they come up with a concept and show name. Lots of on-the-spot (unfunny) jokes, gratuitious swearing and banal banter, but few riddles, and very few that will make you feel like you...”Read full review »
