(Rebroadcast, Episode 217) If you’re the type of person who gives your pet a name like “Chairman Meow,” then you’ll be right at home with this week’s games. We’ll combine highbrow folks (world leaders) with the lowest form of comedy (puns), spend a little time in Celebrity A-A, and hear Jonathan Coulton apply his mellow song stylings to the electric wizard, Jimi Hendrix. Plus, we have the inventor of fantasy baseball, Daniel Okrent, on the show to play a game about the sport’s most hilarious oddities.
