Re-release: 211 - Breaking The Law/Linkuistics (w/ Janet Varney and Neil Patrick Harris)

While Elliott is out of circulation this week doing ten years in Leavenworth (or is it eleven years in Twelveworth?), please enjoy another encore presentation (don't worry, he should be released soon for what the parole board refers to as "polite behavior"). On this episode, Elliott welcomes back the hilarious Janet Varney (SF Sketchfest, Avatar: Braving The Elements, Stan Against Evil), only this time she’s brought along her wonderful friend Neil Patrick Harris (Doctor Who: The Giggle, Gone Girl, Neil’s Puppet Dreams)! First up is a very relaxed game about bizarre state laws (do NOT overthink this one), and then we’ll have a return of an old favorite: Linkuistics! Elliott will give you a word and the starting letter of a second word that completes a well-known phrase, guess what the phrase is and try to keep your word chain going longer than your opponent! In the MegaClue, we’ll ask you to come up with your own connections between given words!   Listen to Janet’s podcast E Pluribus Motto with John Hodgman!
