  • 58: Random Pursuit: Musicals
    Jun 7 2021
    Well friends, after four years of Corner of the Sky, this podcast is going on indefinite hiatus. But to leave on a high note, we’ve got a full game show episode! Moisés Chiullán, Brian Hamilton, David Loehr, Jean MacDonald, and Shelly Brisbin are competing in a custom version of Random Pursuit that’s ALL musicals. Also, this episode includes a mini-game: try to count how many times Quinn makes a mistake! It turns out that Random Pursuit is a deceptively complicated game to keep track of, and Erika Ensign actually has superpowers.

    Quinn Rose with Brian Hamilton, Moisés Chiullán, David J. Loehr, Shelly Brisbin and Jean MacDonald.
