Sorry everyone, it's been a while... I know. We're not going to bother editing and uploading the streams from Twitch for the previous couple episodes... because they're like 1.5-2 hours of audio. If you really missed us, checkout the YouTube link in our emails. Now, let's get to it. [3:35] This week we had some rather one-sided results. Apparently no one wanted to self-waterboard themselves by bobbing for apples with a facemask. We totally understand. And apparently a Zoom-based haunted...

This week we take a super cute safari into the wild world of mammalian super heroes! Here's some highlights from our journey together... the TL;DR of audio if you will: (1:56) - An early sidebar in to the physical attributes of good and evil (8:48) - Let's get educated on small land mammals (9:45) - An age old moral dilemma... and a new podcast idea! ... and of course we finally decide on scenario for the week. Until next time, stay classy!

This week we dig in to our favorite responses from the previous question about bee and jellyfish stings. Chris reads a delightful response... a tale of bees, bears, and jellyfish from one of our listeners, Zach. Also, Jeshua is late to the party, because baths are fun!

We're back! This week we took to Twitch to stream our planning session for the next issue of the newsletter. We explored the pros and cons of being stung by either a jellyfish or SOME bees, and decided that would be our next scenario for you fine folks to chime in on.

Episode Notes This week Chris, Elzie, Sean, and our good friend, Jeshua, discuss the idea of a getaway to the moon or somewhere on earth. Check out more about this scenario here. Modifiers from this time around: What if you could take 1 person with you? What if you had to go alone? There is also no oxygen on Earth either. What if there were no more people on earth because they’re all in moon settlements? Highlights: Elon Musk's moon prison. Jeshua plans a moon heist. Space diapers,...

Episode Notes A relatively tiny crew of Caitlin, Elzie, Sean, and Chris gather to discuss whether it would be better to only be able to consume (and get all your nutrients from) gingerbread or eggnog. Modifiers from this time around: What if you could make your choice taste like whatever you want it to? Highlights: Caitlin's a little tired (from making cookies)... and a little sassy. Elzie proposes a rooster-based replacement for the censorship bleep. Sean and Elzie wretch when...

Episode Notes Keenan joins us (Caitlin, Schuyler, Sean, Elz, and Chris) for the first time to talk about whether it's better to have eyes in the back of your head or see with your eyes closed? Modifiers from this time around: What if you always had to see when your eyes were closed or could only have one set of eyes open at a time. When your eyes were closed you could have x-ray vision and the eyes in the back of the head could shoot lasers. What if you had eyes in the back of your head...

Episode Notes A very special 10 year old guest joins Graham, Sean, and Chris on the podcast to discuss the merits of super speed vs super strenght. Modifiers from this time around: What if you could only use super speed going backwards? What if you had super speed but had to sleep 18 hours a day? What if you constantly sneezed while using super strength? What if smoke came out of your ears while using super strength? Highlights: Elz is hilarious and does a couple accents! Connect...

Episode Notes There's a full house this week as Caitlin, Schuyler, Sean, Chris, Graham, and Inessa gather round the ol' podcasting fire to talk about whether it would be better to eat all your food in taco shells or in smoothies. Hilarity ensues. Modifiers from this time around: What if you could keep 1 item outside of your smoothie? What if you had to eat either your tacos or smoothies with chopsticks? Highlights: None of us know anything about chopsticks (except Graham). Are savory...

Episode Notes After an extended and unexplained (let's say mysterious) hiatus, Chris, Caitlin, Schuyler, and Sean are finally back talking about the hottest would you rather questions. This week, the crew debates whether it's better to be a half human half chicken, or a half human half slug. Modifiers from this time around: What if your slug slime let you slide around really fast like iceman? What if the animal part was your top half and the human part your bottom half? Highlights: 3...

Episode Notes This week Caitlin hosts and Sean, Graham, and Chris fight about whether it's better to have or be a dragon (spoiler alert, the only thing EVERYONE agrees on is that Falkor stinks). Modifiers from this time around: What if you could have a dragon that would be uncontrollable or be a very small dragon. Highlights: Well, we recorded this episode one full time first and lost it due to technical difficulties. So if you don't think this was funny, just assume we used up all...

Episode Notes Chris, Sean, Graham, Inessa, Caitlin and Schuyler try to figure out which would be better, to be a giant or to be invisible. Modifiers from this time around: What if you were invisible but cast a shadow? You’re invisible, but REALLY loud? What if you could turn either being a giant or being invisible on and off? As a giant, you could choose to hover around 10’ off the ground, so you’d never actually have to crush people. Highlights: The crew discusses Shaq week. Caitlin...

Episode Notes Chris, Sean, Graham, and Schuyler try and get to the bottom of which is preferable, sneezing fire or crying slime. The question this week comes courtesy of the brilliant Than, whose organization Unseen is doing inspiring work supporting organizations combatting human trafficking. Modifiers from this time around: * What if fire propels you backwards but slime was in no way washable? * What if the fire was purely cosmetic? * What if the slime was edible? Tweet us at...

Full disclosure, Chris called in from vacation for this week's episode and his audio sounds terrible. He also screwed up the newsletter this week, but hopefully we can give him a pass since he's living la vida loca. Today, an expanded crew of Graham, Sean, Inessa, Caitlin, and Chris debate the question of would you rather have a mask that let you see with anyone's eyes or speak with anyone's voice. Completely without context, here's something you should check out:...
