November 02 The Celebrity Traitors (series 2, episodes 9-10) - endgame chaos, faithful traitors, and our awards!
The Celebrity Traitors is over and the boys are back one last time to debrief episodes 9 and 10! Did the faithfuls earn some applause? Was there a better murder on the table? And what does the Monty Hall problem have to do with the endgame?

Rayan, Wilf, and Ivan also get honest about what it’s really like to play as a traitor under pressure, crown the winner of this year’s predictions game, give their verdict on the series and hand out the “Jaggies”, our almost-annual award ceremony, on the show where we watch reality TV so you don’t have to!

October 24 The Celebrity Traitors (series 2, episodes 7-8) - creaky floorboards, killer yawns, and breakfast myths
It's the penultimate week in the castle and the boys are back to debrief episodes 7 and 8 of The Celebrity Traitors! Did the producers just wait for someone to yawn? Is this the mission The Traitors has been crying out for? Why are the faithfuls suddenly so strong and wrong? And for the last time, does arriving last at breakfast mean anything?

Rayan, Wilf, and Ivan also redesign a disappointing twist, mourn the loss of a US Traitors legend and check in on their predictions, on the show where we watch reality TV so you don’t have to! Follow us on Instagram @itsjustagame.podcast for more.

It’s week three in the castle and the boys are back to debrief episodes 5 and 6 of The Celebrity Traitors! Is The Traitors really a team game? What’s the point of a jail cage if everyone can still chat in it? And who signed off on the hardest murder in plain sight ever devised?

Rayan, Wilf, and Ivan also welcome back some very familiar statues, give Sharon her overdue flowers, check in on their predictions and pitch a true crime spin-off nobody asked for, on the show where we watch reality TV so you don’t have to! Follow us on Instagram @itsjustagame.podcast for more.

Suspicion is rising in the castle and the boys are back to debrief episodes 3 and 4 of The Celebrity Traitors! Was recruitment the right call? Does the Hannah Fry method survive when confronted with Ivan’s data? Is being the cleverest person in the room a death sentence? And what did you achieve in the time it took for that longest mission in Traitors history?

Rayan, Wilf, and Ivan also share what the castle really does to your bowels, check in on their predictions, and more, on the show where we watch reality TV so you don’t have to! Follow us on Instagram @itsjustagame.podcast for more.
