Game Show 290: Purple Polar Bear Parachute Pants (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this edition of Random Pursuit there’s a lot of guessing, many colours, and quite a bit of self-doxxing. Most importantly, a good time is had by all! - Erika Ensign and Steven Schapansky with Jay Miller, Jesse Reid, Lex Friedman, Monty Ashley and Scott Ensign.
Game Show 289: The Odyssey Would Like a Word (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Once again, we bring together some lovely, generous Kickstarter backers who helped make Uncanny Magazine Year 12 happen! Will the cards be kind to a first-timer? Will there be lots of sports and too much math? As always, it’s up to the luck of the dice! - Erika Ensign and Steven Schapansky with Dan Moren, David Matthewman, Fred Paffhausen and Seb Pollard.
Game Show 288: There Are Four Cats (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In the return of the choose-your-edition edition of Random Pursuit, we bring back the same players with their same chosen editions, but this time we make sure they get more questions from their chosen edition. This is helpful…to some players… - Erika Ensign and Steven Schapansky with Dan Moren, Jason Snell, Kirsten Goruk, Monty Ashley and Shelly Brisbin.
Game Show 287: A Portion of a Duck (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Your favorite (and perhaps only) podcast game show about making connections to various words returns, with a battle between the Pacific Northwest and Big Oil Country(ies)! Nobody stare directly at Glenn’s mind. What are names, but words that are attached to people? These words mean something, somehow, but it will take a lot of time and effort to figure it out. Puzzle written by Lex Friedman. Thanks a lot, Lex. - Jason Snell with Glenn Fleishman, Kathy Campbell, Shelly Brisbin and Annette Wierstr
Game Show 286: Technically Canadian (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It’s the 50th edition of Random Pursuit! Erika was too lazy to do anything that took extra work, so this is basically a regular episode. But we do have a new player — who even tried to study! Plus, it’s mostly Canadians — and all players who live in Commonwealth nations, so maybe we can call this a slightly belated Canada Day episode? - Erika Ensign and Steven Schapansky with Annette Wierstra, Ben Rice McCarthy, Jesse Reid, Sandra Wong and Sarah Murphy.
