    Uh oh: ya boys are out here bending the limits of the podcasting medium again. In this episode, the closing segment begins at the same time as the cold open as we debut a new episode-long game: Hidden Objectives.

    But don't worry, we've got questions for you as well: What should we say to people when they have the hiccups? And at what point does a snack become a meal, legally speaking?

    And, oh yeah: Matt shares a very special announcement.

    It's the classic conundrum: you're in witness protection...but you're also in love. When do you spill the beans to your lover? Then, how does one address an elephant in a room?

    We close things out today with a new game from Poch: Drugeons and Dragons! (It's a Pop Quiz)
