PLUS: Jenni explains the etymology of 'abaft.' Ryan explains why he thought the dagger stuck in the mast was a remotely good idea. Jim explains why Inform 7 is stupid.

Jim Crawford shares with us the text adventure part of Frog Fractions, after we discuss linguistics and Animal Crossing for about fifteen minutes. Certain people take fractions far more seriously than Jim could ever have predicted.

Crazed with power, Ryan demands that Emily Short and Jenni play a game he wrote about a person who keeps yakking about being in a coma. The person in the game does not necessarily depict Ryan. I want to make that clear.

Emily Short brings us one of her fractured fairy tales and Ryan works himself into a fanboy frenzy. Jenni tries to remember Dom DeLuise's first name. Shameful lunchtime secrets are revealed.

Jenni and Ryan play Emily Short's Speed-IF about an angry fish, and Flavor Flav finally finds the career he was born for.

Jenni and Jeremy play a game that Ryan wrote based on a They Might Be Giants song. Hey, just like that other game! But that game was weird, and creepy. This one will be normal, and pleasant.

With Jenni's help, Ryan achieves self-actualization. His mental energies finally suppress his somatic anxieties, and he succeeds in escaping from the cramped cell of repression and into the light and fresh air of true awareness. He achieves this by solving Violet, by Jeremy Freese.

Jeremy Freese brings us his IF Comp-winning Violet, a game painstakingly calculated to drive Ryan to the brink of insanity and then drive him over that brink. And Jenni just smiles and laughs! While her friend Ryan is falling apart! Clearly whoever is writing this summary hasn't completely recovered.

The thrilling conclusion of Emily and Jenni playing Taco Fiction, which is a game about crime. Ryan unmasks all the game's secrets, expounds on all of its social and ethical implications, and basically never stops talking. Even this sentence is a form of Ryan talking. You can't escape.

In this one we play Ryan's IF Comp-winning Taco Fiction, which is a game about crime. Emily and Jenni do some heinous things in this game, but Ryan doesn't even try to stop them. And you're about to listen to the whole thing! Nobody is blameless.
