In a World of…criminals who operate above the law, one man, Simon, along with his sentient Volkswagen Minibus, is a young loner on a crusade to champion the cause of the Department of Unending Charity, Humanity, and Excellence. Stumbling on a plot where a small community is about to be devastated by an evil man who seeks to further his own ends, Simon must get involved and protect the innocent, the helpless and the powerless. This episode features the improv games Best of Times, Worst of Times, Last Letter, First Letter, 2-Word Typewriter, Pardon, and Cutting Room. About This Episode In this episode, we pay homage to Knight Rider (and other “vehicle based TV shows from the 80s…”). In the 80s, there was a string of TV shows featuring a man with a very cool vehicle, and each week he would arrive in a small town and stumble upon a criminal enterprise, usually where a rich powerful man was taking advantage of a good-hearted, community minded, small business owner. There was a LOT of shows like this, but only one with a sentient, talking car, so that’s the way we went!

In a World…where the last unexplored frontier on Earth is not on Earth, but under it. Deep under water. One deep water crew, with the best of intentions of finding healing algae, will release something that was never meant to be released. Can they survive the wet slimy death creature…? This episode features the improv games Last Letter First Letter, Emotional List, Ding, and Cutting Room. About This Episode In this episode, we pay homage to underwater sci-fi horror movies. Basically, these movies are all knock-offs of Alien, just instead of being set in space they are set at the bottom of the ocean (No on can hear you scream there either). There was a year in the 80’s where six(!) of these movies were released, but there have been some more recent releases in this sub-genre, like Underwater with Kristen Stewart.

In a World…where the rich and powerful can get away with anything they want, and some feel the urge to treat others as sport, one man will find himself pulled into a most dangerous game. John Hunt is looking for answers but to get them, he will have to…game the hunt! This episode features the improv games A to Z, Theater Genres, Murphy’s Law, and Cutting Room. About This Episode In this episode, we pay homage to those movies where man is hunted for sport. This is a style of movie that gets remade over and over, and it is usually ridiculous and almost always fun.

In a world…where some people dream of being a Mountie, while others are just trying to get a new start on life, one group of hapless misfits will attempt to come together to join one of the most elite crime fighting organizations in the world: The Mounties! This episode features the improv games Trailer in a Minute, Superheroes, Blind Line, Emotional Lists, and Cutting Room. About This Episode In this episode, we pay homage to “Training Movies.” The movies where the bulk of the story involves the training of a group of varied misfits (sometimes who are little more than cliches or stereotypes) learning how to come together so they can graduate. We focused mostly on comedies, like Stripes, Police Academy, and Feds, but in the episode we realized that a lot of movies fall into this category, like Top Gun and Full Metal Jacket!

It’s a fun episode that still has lots of humor in it, but it is also a great chance to see a little bit begins the scenes and get some ideas on creativity, storytelling, and improv comedy!

Avish Parashar: Also, getting into some of the clubs and commonalities and boy, there are some cliches in this sort of thing, yes, I thought I set a timer here it's gonna quack like a duck when it's done so Mike let's talk Steven seagal you and I kind of. Avish Parashar: enjoyed and bonded over the years and our younger days were creating the martial arts regularly and watching this kind of nonsense. Michael Worth: Oh yeah believing it actually was like functional martial arts and actually worked right. Michael Worth: Alright, so how specific are we getting are we getting Steven seagal specific or just the general 80s like. Avish Parashar: Probably the more Steven seagal specific at least right now I mean we don't have to jump into discussing the tropes but just kind of. Avish Parashar: You know. Avish Parashar: Like your thoughts on the Steven seagal genre in July. Michael Worth: 1 of all first of all there's something gloriously nostalgic about this, because this this film, you know you gotta think when it came out in the 80s, it was done for the low budget like let's just get butts in the seats, and so the. Michael Worth: The focus is on basically badass fight scenes and, most notably segall just like being completely invincible and he's never in any trouble like he just he goes he waits through the plebes he went to the lieutenant's any ways to the chief bad guy. Avish Parashar: yeah it's ridiculous is that even when he fights the big bad guy he. Avish Parashar: Barely gets touched. Michael Worth: yeah I think the worst seattle's yet he got stabbed once by Tommy Lee Jones in under siege during the call a knife fight. Avish Parashar: yeah. Avish Parashar: And even though he looked so yeah this era where they it was an era before again, you know we recently recorded are taken episode, where it was like Liam neeson. Avish Parashar: And we talked on that one about somewhere along the way they realize you get a good actor interaction movie it kind of elevates it. Avish Parashar: This is from that era were all they were looking for someone who had action skill so yeah van damme will have like some martial arts training was like a dancer could you great body busy. Avish Parashar: You have speak they go yeah Jeff speakman. Avish Parashar: You got um, then you got say girl who was like a legitimate like whatever seventh degree a keto yeah no. Avish Parashar: No real acting talent. Avish Parashar: So i'm sure he would digress. Avish Parashar: He definitely disagree. Michael Worth: Oh yes, let's take all could do no wrong and to god's world seagal is the most cigar you can never say go. Avish Parashar: Oh yeah and even read stories like he's like one of the most. Avish Parashar: hated guests outside of that live like when you talk about the cat stories like they talk like their worst guests he's like because he's like an attitude was like almost violent and just like arrogant. Michael Worth: He also, I believe, had a big REP in Hollywood for like injuring a stuntman all the time because because you know he basically like. Michael Worth: Like did the stunts like he was actually trying to do it, you know and like you do, like some of the dogs in the webinar because it's almost like most things. Michael Worth: I don't think they're very practical, but if you're letting the dude get to your neck with that, like forearm strike and then he frickin does it. Avish Parashar: like this yeah they're not I mean you know they're not like street fighting practical they'll work if you can lot you know it's not a matter of. Avish Parashar: Like they're legitimate techniques that are very difficult to land in combat but the techniques themselves are like legitimate and that they'll work like to bend someone's risk that way they're going to flip over in a circle yeah. Michael Worth: funny enough i'm going to go a little diatribe here a red because i've been training Brazilian Jiu jitsu and what all the upper belts are starting to train now. Michael Worth: Our wrist locks but they're coming out of grappling so you're already kind of tangled up in the clothes, but these guys have been landing. Michael Worth: Whatever the kota guys share they've been landing enough people but it's in a grappling contest and they all say the same thing, but the only reason I can get away with this is that you and I already touching each other and there's no punching. Avish Parashar: bag yeah yeah it's not yeah exactly it's not like grabbing some of this out of the air. Avish Parashar: But you know we also you know we watch movies about killer robots and space aliens and giant lizard so like I. Avish Parashar: I love a like this, I love to see what I got fight scenes because they're so cool looking in there, so fluid and. Michael Worth: Well, that that's the thing about. Michael Worth: describing these fight scenes and Erica of the game we're going to do, because the the the cigar stuff since this new striking it's not like the bourne identity was like jerky camera back it's like this really cool stuff we're. Michael Worth: Throwing a baseball BAT and to go like step to the side and throw the guy through a plate glass window, so the fight scenes of segall are super exciting and dramatic and everyone's getting thrown into objects and thrown into like you know storeroom, as you know, items in the store way. Avish Parashar: That is also why they're so short, though, because, like. Avish Parashar: there's no punching and kicking right so like in a normal a fight scene, you know Bruce Lee van damme Jackie Chan. Avish Parashar: they're punching each other and they get hit like Oh, they come back and they fight they hit the other guy that Oh, they come back and they get hurt a little like, if you want really watch the same movie, especially with the henchmen it's like one move for enjoyment. Avish Parashar: enjoyment attacks him. Avish Parashar: He does the you know i'm gonna knock the elbow down and do the rich hand strike across your throat. Avish Parashar: yeah that guy's done next I punches of all i'm going to sidestep grab your risk autograph reverse it up you're done. Michael Worth: yeah. Avish Parashar: It just one hit it's like that's me he just like. Michael Worth: Yes, what i'm gonna do a sacrifice, if not he, like hip. Michael Worth: throw like boom he's done right so so it's fun it's beautiful to watch but it's a really fast, which also brings up the whole like seagal just can kind of wade through people. Michael Worth: um The second thing that I love about the signal is he's unabashedly like wants to be like the every man every in every movie he's like a family man he's an Italian he's like Roman Catholic like he's just like he's got his niche he's just. Avish Parashar: Basically, got to be himself, because he can't act so. Michael Worth: Basically he's himself he's he's his own perfect version of himself right like you know. Michael Worth: yeah good father, a good husband like, although the cost of the force love him, it is like yeah that's that's art not imitating life. Avish Parashar: yeah he stands up to power, he does what's right like regardless yeah. Michael Worth: Speaking of power it's it's so the plots of these are also so gloriously paper thin that's so much fun to check out because that's part of the charm of this stuff it's like you just want a bunch of bad guys and you want a lone wolf to just take them down so they're just like. Avish Parashar: Oh yeah I mean we're talking about like the cliche is and stuff you know you've got. Avish Parashar: yeah he's almost always rogue in some way you know. Avish Parashar: People in charge are corrupt or they're not corrupt, but whatever he's been told to like lay off. Michael Worth: Your time because the bad guys have too much political power. Avish Parashar: yeah kind of thing yeah. Avish Parashar: And that's also why he doesn't have backup so he's got to go in solo. Avish Parashar: You can't trust anyone don't get help them. Michael Worth: To, of course, because you say go right, you know so. Avish Parashar: yeah and. Michael Worth: um yeah and I think that the bad guys are just like good old fashioned bad guys that you love to hate they're always dealing drugs or like you know i'm in hard to kill a they're doing. Avish Parashar: Articles drugs I think right, it was drug dealers know marked for death was drug dealers hard to kill with the politician. Avish Parashar: yeah yeah corrupt politician oh. Michael Worth: Right, but he was killing politicians, he get his opium deal to remember the first met in the CIA in in Vietnam. Avish Parashar: That was above the law. Avish Parashar: Yes. Michael Worth: wow so much diversity in this stuff. Avish Parashar: yeah there's always a rich powerful person who's corrupting the system. Avish Parashar: You know, for drugs or political power money or all of that. Avish Parashar: It gets personal somehow you know either his family's killed like in hard to kill or attacked. Avish Parashar: You know, once the bad guys realized he's trouble they kind of go after him and or is COP friends are killed so it gets personal. Michael Worth: So and, by the way, that's The other thing is like right before we get started into the X three x four right before the final assault usually. Michael Worth: He gets a couple of his buddies killed like they get they get targeted either they are they buy him time to get away and they die or they just get targeted by the bad guy and that's kind of the what pushes them over the edge, you know because I don't. Michael Worth: yeah I don't only in hard to kill is the wife killed and that's because, in the very beginning kind of sets up the plot Sharon stone above the law, can you believe that is not killed. Michael Worth: The Italian girl in out for justice is not killed and I kept my room marked for death through the wife is but no. Avish Parashar: yeah yeah so it's easy but yeah i've had some was targeted more often right the COP buddies are. Avish Parashar: are taken out. Michael Worth: yeah yeah righteous, and I mean honestly what makes the film great and let's talk about dialogue. Avish Parashar: I was about to say there's some. Avish Parashar: horrible dialogue and some terrible like one liner. Michael Worth: But the dialogues usually like the bad dialogue it's usually say call you know it's, like the other actors actually have legit dialogue, I don't know what it is. Avish Parashar: equal quality it's just the other actors are actual actors, so they can make it sound semi decent. Avish Parashar: Plus they're trying to give him, like the shorts neck or one liners. Avish Parashar: yeah yeah. Michael Worth: Which failed utterly I mean my God let's let's let's let's put up some of these gems where it's like yeah i'll take you to the bank body bank with. Avish Parashar: bank. Michael Worth: Of the blood banks over the place. Michael Worth: Although it has my favorite like I just killed lieutenant line where he takes the pool cuny staff that throw that is that's killing my wife Fuck you and die. Avish Parashar: yeah I do like that live. Michael Worth: that's the one good one, but I can't think of a single other mind that he said that's remotely interesting, so what is about these movies that make it so far, because he's a wouldn't actor, the plots. Avish Parashar: I thought you know they get to the point right the plot it's like. Avish Parashar: it's like cake right. Avish Parashar: it's like cake is nice but cake is really just a conveyance for frosting it's just the frosting delivery. Avish Parashar: that's that's kind of the same movie right like the plot the movie the acting. it's fine. Avish Parashar: You know, but it's really just conveyance device for sega fight scenes like that's all. Michael Worth: that's a good point yeah it is it delicious it's literally it's like why, why are they Why are these are crackers out because I want that pepperoni and that Brie. Avish Parashar: Cheese exactly I mean that's why like that's why I received was like a legitimate mainstream movie because. Avish Parashar: You got the single fight scenes but they actually managed to wrap it in a movie with a decently interesting plot, and you got you know Gary busey and Tommy Lee Jones I like real actors. Michael Worth: And I bought a call was not nearly as involved that with with the script I think the script was actually written by a couple of Hollywood guys would actually had a legit three act. Avish Parashar: structure so he. Michael Worth: keeps it all the hell out of the way you know, and the same thing with executive decision couple that with the fact that they figured out let's get rid of steak on the first five. Avish Parashar: that's true yeah they did they they asked him right in the beginning, so. Avish Parashar: All right, so that is just about our time is about to go off here. Avish Parashar: So that. Avish Parashar: I think we talked about the genre enough here. Transcription of the “Creating the Outline” Segment (Unedited and Un-Cleaned up) Avish Parashar: Creating the outline, we are going to spend five minutes coming up with a high level outline for this movie we're going to use a four act structure. Avish Parashar: And there's our starting point, we may veer from it, we may stick to it, who knows it's improvisation so we'll see alright, so there goes a timer alright, so what has to happen is this is really thin right it's like I said it's all the excuse of oh yeah act one we. Michael Worth: will establish the COP and he gets in his first small time fight scene. Avish Parashar: You know, like there's always like an opening little just to show that he's a badass. Michael Worth: yeah I can't wait for us to invent his martial arts could be absurd. Avish Parashar: Animal. Michael Worth: Animal and then act one um. Michael Worth: Well i'll say this, and tell me whether it's one or two he runs into his first encounter with So yes, he has a little scuffle, this is nothing new that's a couple people mugging an old lady pizza. Michael Worth: But then he runs it was first encounter with the larger crime Arc like again with drugs he he see some kids selling drugs he gets shot and he finds out that there's a new drug on the scene and that starts to tie into there's something big going on. Avish Parashar: So I don't know yeah I think I think act one usually ends with him stumbling onto the bigger thing like just like I said. Avish Parashar: Maybe on a small lower level like yeah the kids selling drugs or you know stopping some crime, but he gets involved in whatever and you know, for the purpose of our show that might be combined with the opening fight, you know the opening little fight maybe the one that kind of. Michael Worth: yeah yeah. Avish Parashar: Perfect next into the bigger world. Michael Worth: Sure sure. Avish Parashar: But he's asked yeah kind of where he he stumbles upon the bad guys bad guys kind of syndicate or plan. Michael Worth: Act two is him a teaming up with probably a couple of his buddy COPs to figure out who's doing what are learning about who the bad guy is a. Avish Parashar: So this they almost always so yeah This is where this is the they're trying to figure things out and there's almost always a scene, where they go to some like. Avish Parashar: gang hide out or dive bar some alleyway though the one biker gang always hangs out and he just wants to get some information, but of course there's a fight. Michael Worth: So if I see right. Michael Worth: So we've seen that right that gets the attention of the head bad guy that this that that are RSA golf guys is on to them, and that leads to act three, which is they've tried to kill segall is. Michael Worth: This the show is going to be today they try to kill cigar that these two buddies are killed his force pulls them off the thing, and he goes rogue and that leads into act for me this is literally how easy, this is going to be right. Avish Parashar: yeah I would say yeah then he goes rogue. Avish Parashar: And then, and then usually there's some oftentimes there's some additional danger. Avish Parashar: that's introduced right the end of act three like his family's in jeopardy, or you find out what the big plan is like Oh, you know this guy is gonna blow up this building on this day or you know the big deal going down. Michael Worth: yeah yeah exactly so. Avish Parashar: plan or personal issue I know. Michael Worth: I had a couple something really funny and silly and then act for us literally him just going to the head villains um. Michael Worth: You know, he does one or one or both things he had to go ahead villains layer and kills him and also tenants he goes and destroys the crime scene like it destroys the drunk supply quite as both. Avish Parashar: yeah stop the crime and fights a bad guy and beats. Michael Worth: and kills everybody and and barely takes a wound. Avish Parashar: Barely takes it kills everyone. Michael Worth: Your meters can't see this but i'm literally showing my sketch pad. Avish Parashar: Right. Avish Parashar: There you go that's about it so. Avish Parashar: All right. Avish Parashar: So that we finished we'd like. Avish Parashar: got their outlining phase ever. Michael Worth: Good what else isn't right let's get to it right oh.…

Michael Worth: This is such my pleasure i'm so excited to do this we're going to do a fantastic archaeology exploration type movie in the style of indiana Jones or King solomon's minds. Avish Parashar: let's just say indiana Jones. Avish Parashar: knock off, which is interesting because the book King solomon's mines came out. Avish Parashar: The whole quarter main thing came out long before raiders of the lost Ark raiders lost Ark was almost it almost to that. Michael Worth: It was it was an homage to the 30s pulp exploration, you know, doctors, the savage jungle and that kind of stuff. Michael Worth: yeah but. Avish Parashar: Once but once raiders lost Ark came out like cool let's get on this gravy train and they made an hour to Ellen quarter made movies, which were bad. Avish Parashar: weather was bad I didn't even bother watching the second one, because. Avish Parashar: The first of all, so bad. Michael Worth: No it's so bad, it was so, but the best part about it was the fact that Jerry goes with it, the music and the end the score is like legit so uh yeah. Avish Parashar: yeah Mike and I did a movie like podcast slash Facebook live for a while we review an 80s movie each week and we did this one, and it was terrible. Avish Parashar: But we found is almost every week, we talked about how bad the movie was when are we talking about a bad movie the score was always amazing it's like they get better so that's three or like. Michael Worth: This Jesus man well because they knew that we'll get to that a bit, but they knew that the movie was terrible and the only way they could possibly sell which it was to make at least make it sound epic right, so all right, so this. Avish Parashar: We love we both love indiana Jones all genre but this episode is double specials got two additional reasons why it's extra special number one, we have to prep for this episode we interviewed our buddy Craig price. Avish Parashar: was a great movie guy he hosts a podcast called matinee heroes. Avish Parashar: which you can find a matinee heroes COM, or just look up matt night heroes on whatever he also hosts a a a kind of a game show called cast off that Mike and I have appeared on before and we're going to appear on again coming up soon depending when this comes out. Avish Parashar: Where you compete against one recasting famous movie so Mike and I competed recasting interview with a vampire and now we're gonna get crazy. Avish Parashar: So it's a lot of fun craig's a big movie guy he loves indiana Jones so we go in depth into the tropes. Avish Parashar: So we're gonna do that for a trope discussion, the other reason that i'm excited about this genre. Avish Parashar: Is that way back at this point about a year ago, when we first had the idea for this podcast we didn't know if this show format would work, so of course we just jumped in like good improvise it let's try it. Avish Parashar: yeah very first one we ever tried was a indiana Jones movie now that was so new we were just testing stuff out we didn't even bother to record it, which is a shame, because it went really well. Michael Worth: Did I did I was a good show you first really production entertainment, which is record everything record everything right. Avish Parashar: yeah we. Avish Parashar: should have recorded it we didn't. Avish Parashar: But does the first time, returning to this so i've been almost a year since we've done in indiana Jones so we're gonna do today. Avish Parashar: That one was called phineas Jones and the cult of Marmara um we're not going to do the call tomorrow, but we are going to stay with phineas Jones as our main character. Avish Parashar: Yes, you'll see that further adventures of phineas Jones in the in the. Michael Worth: unreleased or the release sequel to the unreleased original which has been lost in the midst of time. Avish Parashar: Exactly it's like when there's a pilot that that's not aired but they still turn into a show that's. Avish Parashar: that's what this is going to be like. Michael Worth: it's gonna be. Avish Parashar: So real quick before we get into all this craziness if you liked this show, if you like, what you hear. Avish Parashar: Please give us a rating and review head over to wherever you listen to your podcasts ideally apple podcast give us a five star rating. Avish Parashar: And if you feel so inclined, just a short review a couple sentences about what you like about the show, and why other should listen and help us out a lot it'll help others find the show and help us grow this podcast. Avish Parashar: Alright, so we are going to start and again, our first segment, which is discussing the tropes we're going to drop in our conversation with Craig price. Transcription of the “Creating the Outline” Segment (Unedited and Un-Cleaned up) Avish Parashar: segment two, we are now going to create an outline Based on this information that we talked about with Craig and Mike and I know. Avish Parashar: we're going to create a high level outline we're going to use a four act structure and again, this is a rough guide because of improv comedy we may not follow this outline exactly but there's going to be our rough guide of what happens in each segment of the story yep so like a. Michael Worth: Oh man i'm already all this, you know mean indiana Jones but I love this stuff I think it's one of my favorite films Harrison ford's been in a first of all. Avish Parashar: i'm making a call right so that's going on and i'll real far limb there. yeah. Avish Parashar: So contrary in that I like raiders of the lost Ark I know exactly. Michael Worth: Being like I like to be in the conversation now that's different. Michael Worth: That will be a bold statement yeah or or or the mosquito coast whoo that's it that's it that's it. Michael Worth: So, first of all going to be the call right now, because I know this this this flow we're doing a prologue not a trailer because they always do a prologue that's a fun little cold open unrelated to the main quest. Avish Parashar: yeah and. Avish Parashar: For this prologue you will be the one singing anything goes in China. Michael Worth: Yes, in China. Michael Worth: Steven spielberg's wife right and play police gotten that right. Avish Parashar: yeah at least wife at the time, I know they're still married or not. Michael Worth: yeah who knows man and Hollywood whatever so uh it's pretty easy act act one is establishing of our character in his everyday life, because you know this guy is is not a. Michael Worth: Just like in the library and indiana Jones he has a normal life and it gets sent out on missions uh and then the establishment of. Michael Worth: Information that some artifact exists, whether it's oh we've got news clippings of somebody excavating this pyramid or whatever, and that is the gestation to send them out on a quest we don't see. Avish Parashar: It so there's the prologue that act one is like. Avish Parashar: You have the like the exposition yeah. Michael Worth: The inciting the inciting information is really what it is. Avish Parashar: yeah and then you either it's a conversation with the professor, you know the government comes in, or you know the villagers came to him in yeah yeah. Michael Worth: orange or a private investor in who. Michael Worth: You know, has an affair, the private investor in the last crusade. Avish Parashar: Yes, yes, his. Avish Parashar: intention is to walk the the snow walkers the Ad ads to the. Michael Worth: he's like is he getting revenge because hog got purchase layout during the added innovation. Avish Parashar: For those who don't know the bad guy in a holy grail or last crusade, is also the commander of the ad ads in empire strikes back. Michael Worth: Exactly there it is. Avish Parashar: Julian glover right. Michael Worth: Yes, yes he's been he's been a bunch of things. Avish Parashar: Alright, so. Avish Parashar: Okay, so act one we establish that and then he goes on there's usually the first um he can investigate the first clue and. Avish Parashar: So there's some action there's some some yeah and I think we found over the last few months that yo loser outlines, so we don't need a whole lot when we meet the hero first clue and you're going to use the meat, the female interest in in that first. Michael Worth: And, and this is a great way, especially because that's that we've really tightened up our structure he's going to find the clues and act to. Michael Worth: That get him to the object in APP three that's how we kind of parse it out and an APP to it's also going to have his first couple one or two for us probably one because it's shorter interacted with the bad guy and or his cronies. Avish Parashar: Rights Act to heal me it'll be the bad guy he'll fail, I think, the one thing I read a book. Avish Parashar: On screenwriting and it's talking about the concept of spectacular failure and it's like that's why indiana Jones is so good, not because he succeeds in fact he fails, like every step of the way he has failed spectacularly. Michael Worth: yeah exactly. Avish Parashar: don't act one you know they they get the first clue act to they pretty much like he basically it's like each actors just act one you get a clue. Avish Parashar: That leads you to act two which ends with them fighting another clue which is X three of them fighting another clue and then an act for is when they find and then lose the final object yeah. Michael Worth: or they finally did the end of that three and then kind of everything goes wrong and act for. Avish Parashar: Sure, I guess, in. Avish Parashar: In raiders lost Ark to actually find the Ark but then lose it and then have to get they ultimately lose it act for but right. Avish Parashar: But basically it's just a clue clue. Avish Parashar: Resolution. Michael Worth: yeah exactly and and and every step of the way that you have to flush out a little bit of a couple of number one is that the enemy is almost always i'm able to become either not one step ahead but they're able to whenever. Michael Worth: Whenever phineas gains is taken away so it's never like he gets there and they've already found the Ark and taking it it's like, no, no, he gets York and the bad guys swoop in like like cheap bullies in a playground, the second is. Avish Parashar: it's almost like you're saying there's nothing you can have that I cannot take. Michael Worth: I know it's like. Michael Worth: Well, I got I hate the fridge. Avish Parashar: Now let's go to let's go to the show today baby. Michael Worth: So um but here's The other thing diabolical death traps and puzzles we don't have too many of them, but like that that'll be. Avish Parashar: gather are like. Avish Parashar: A lot, and you know what is it's it's the things we need this death traps. Avish Parashar: And there's riddles and. Michael Worth: puzzles and. Avish Parashar: yeah puzzle the puzzle so death traps and puzzles. Avish Parashar: yeah it's um and they'll kind of come in. Avish Parashar: And they can be throughout like it can be an act to or activity or act for. Michael Worth: Sure, for sure. Avish Parashar: yeah when he def traps and puzzles. Michael Worth: And then act for is a the following happens like there's look, you know whether or not we've they've got the artifacts in that three or where they get an act for. Michael Worth: They they lose it right and then their witness the bad guys get greedy and they're witnessed to the. Michael Worth: exposition of the power of the artifact and it basically killed on the bad guys and saves them right or or or you know that's so basically look at with a big part of that for is like. Michael Worth: They opened pandora's box they shouldn't have done that, and then, and then we get to have all sorts of fun descriptions of all the cool things that happen. Avish Parashar: yeah that's a real as artifact it ends up backfire on the good guys and. Avish Parashar: Have those ones one other thing Oh, at some point if we're going to indiana Jones there's always some kind of creature issue like critters you know snakes. Michael Worth: Oh rats. Avish Parashar: rats bugs. Avish Parashar: there's always like some kind of one of the traps or situations as. Michael Worth: They have to open yeah man it's actually it's funny like when you think about all things that that Spielberg and Lucas, I put in this it actually is kind of a railroad movie plot, you know. Avish Parashar: it's just. Michael Worth: You kind of have to you have to tick the boxes, a little bit right. Avish Parashar: Oh yeah yeah I mean that's what we do right we just follow the guy was what makes indiana Jones movie without those elements at what point are we going to make sure aliens appear in this story. Michael Worth: Not aliens extra dimensional beings. Avish Parashar: entire discussion we just basically ignored the fact. Avish Parashar: That crystal skull exists. Michael Worth: Exactly, although and i'm going to wrap up with this one thing that people do forget and it's only because i'm in video games and I love and i'm working on adventure games right now and narrative games. Michael Worth: There was a slew of high quality Lucas arts games, the Emperor tomb the staff Atlantis that were like legit puzzle games and or legit third person. Avish Parashar: I. Avish Parashar: You know what I knew they were, I never actually played any of them, but I always want to play the Atlanta when I heard amazing things about that one. Michael Worth: Is that the one that was the classic king's quest where's the side scrolling adventure one, I think that. Avish Parashar: I think that was maybe yeah probably I also like the whole tomb raider franchises essentially like. Michael Worth: indiana Jones with. Avish Parashar: Dr Jones variations of. Avish Parashar: All right, well, that was our timer we got kind of a good basic outline so.…

In a world…where some people will go to any lengths to get prized magnolia wood, one man will be forced to return to a life of violence to rescue the only thing he has left in the world that he cares about. This episode features the improv games Trailer: Trailer in a minute, Last Letter First Letter, Pardon, Best of Times Worst of Times, and Cutting Room.
