S02.E09: One Letter Oaf

After last week's Pop Culture Happy Hour match, it's only right that friend of that show Margaret H. Willison should play with us this week. She's here with her co-hosts of the Appointment Television podcast Kathryn VanArendonk and Andrew Cunningham. They'll kick off the competition with an audio quiz about TV production company logos before moving into a one-letter-off game with slightly modified versions of popular TV shows. And we can only hope they've boned up on the knowledge needed for this week's lightning round! This is it for regulation play for our season two Battle of the Podcasts! Next week, our returning champions from the season will come back for the playoffs!
