This week, Ryan and Brian bring two new challenges to the table, one you should try and one you should not. They are a new Contest of Now (at bemoresmarter.com/contest) and the notion of mixing beer and milk. You decide which we endorse. Also: how many Fleet Streets, how many spellings of Zihuatanejo, and how many middle names is Ryan allowed to veto?

We're putting these words here to help with search engine optimization. We don't think it will work, but you probably haven't read this far, so it doesn't matter: baseball, crossword, crosswords, etymology, game, hunt, kealoa, movies, musicals, mystery, oscar, pizza, puzzle, puzzles, sandwiches, soup, trivia, words
It's the return of many things: crosswords in real life, the ground level club of indeterminate length, references to Episode #442, the long lost FMI musical, and best of all, cohost Ryan Zwickel Hecht! (Also, solve our Contest of Still Going On at bemoresmarter.com/contest)

Front runners are beginning to emerge in the "pick Ryan's middle name" game, but is the voting secure? This week, Ryan and Brian yak about Bangor, the rising number of Raising Cane's, and whether or not names like Cottontail, Intriligator, and Wecht are real. Sounds like a bunch of tittle-tattle.

PLOT TWIST! If you know, you know. And if you don't — give it a listen. Season 9 wraps with one of the most delightful surprises in the history of FMI, and we're not even talking about a brand new contest puzzle (!!!), available at bemoresmarter.com/con457. And anyone still looking to take part in Lollapuzzoola from home, the puzzles are available here.

This week, Ryan and Brian learn more than they even knew existed about Ample Hills Creamery, the interrobang, and the Willow Lane parking lot in Bethesda, Maryland. How will you find out when their pizza is? You locate the squeak, and then that's where you put it.

This week, Ryan and Brian examine both intended and unintended puns, induct several new members into the BFVWE club, and suffer through enough Kealoa to shoo away our loyal audience. (We're sorry.)
