The Incomparable Game Show

Welcome back to “Inconceivable!”, the show that tests two teams’ knowledge of the nerdy, the useless, and the obscure. For this episode, recorded live at the World Science Fiction Convention in San Jose, CA, it’s a North American face-off, as Team USA takes on Team Canada. The panelists must identify fictional foods, figure out what character a group of actors have in common, and play a little game of musical mash-ups. Helene Wecker, Adam Rakunas, and Navah Wolfe represent the U.S. while Warren Frey, Erika Ensign, and Steven Schapansky fly the Canadian flag.

It’s time once again for Low Definition, a game show featuring a panel of guests trying to guess the definitions of dumb words. In this episode we borrow a book from a Little Free Library, go to see an American movie in Italy, and try to figure out nerds.

Cruel Brit Antony Johnston uses nostalgia-filled trivia meant for nostalgic UK players to confuse a collection of non-nostalgic North Americans.

Welcome back to “Inconceivable!”, the show that tests two teams’ knowledge of the nerdy, the useless, and the obscure. It’s a nail biter this time around, as our panelists try to identify movies of the NATO alphabet, attempt to determine which items come next in mysterious sequences, and decipher mashups of movies and…stores? Shannon Sudderth, Justin Michael, and Kathy Campbell tee off against rivals Antony Johnston, Aleen Simms, and Steve Lutz.

Inside a clerk’s office in a hotel in the old west town of Boomtown comes a story so dramatic and confusing that it must have been made up on the spot. Join host Tony Sindelar as he guides four players through a tale of greed, betrayal, and weird old-timey accents in the improvisational game Fiasco.

We return with yet more stupid guesses about your stupid answers to our stupid questions! Two “families” of Incomparable panelists compete for glory and adulation, and also something about Cool Cat.

Based on a survey of Incomparable listeners, it’s time once again for a battle between two “families” of podcast panelists, who will attempt to guess the strange answers our listeners gave to innocuous questions! Along the way we’ll build a hamburger, discover monsters, and ponder the mysteries of Benedict Cumberbatch. (Kathy had the baby the next day. She has returned to Team Pacific Northwest.)

On this episode, we play the new game, You Think You Know Me, created by Ami Baio, a card game in which you win by knowing facts and beliefs of the people with whom you’re playing. If Cards Against Humanity is “a party game for horrible people,” You Think You Know Me is somewhere on the other end of the scale. This trans-Atlantic episode features notable cultural confusion, accidental personal insights, and discussions of mortality! Hilarity, as they say, ensues.

Welcome back to “Inconceivable!”, the show that tests two teams’ knowledge of the nerdy, the useless, and the obscure. Smug and acrimonious are the watchwords in this installment, as our two teams butt heads while trying to figure out the difference between medieval weaponry and dairy products, identify Star Trek movie scores, and expand some tricky abbreviations. Mikah Sargent, Alyssa Franke, and Chip Sudderth team up to take on Kelly Guimont, Brian Hamilton, and Liz Myles for bragging rights.

We return to the game of strange words, stranger idioms, and the strangest mixed drinks of all time! This time we dip our toe into international waters, with three European guests who join us in being flummoxed by the English language. But it turns out that the strangest thing about Low Definition may be the listeners themselves…
