Things are absolutely wretched in the BEST way on this week’s episode. Liz, Dave, and Matt get down with their bad selves for the most reviled characters and content. Round one will quiz them on the deaths of famous witches throughout pop culture, before round two goes deep on the taglines for winners of the Golden Raspberry Awards (aka the Razzies). The only non-dreadful thing about this episode is the players themselves!

The Riddle
I'm a Gerber baby, but without a bottle
Ran an election campaign that was less than full throttle.
A newspaper strip, a movie, nothing went right,
I even had to wear pants after a legal fight.
Answer
Howard the Duck was created by Steve Gerber, and ran a less than successful mock campaign for President in 1976. He was licensed out for a newspaper strip (Stan Less thought that was the route to real money), but it quickly folded, and the less said about the movie, the better. Legal wrangling with Disney over Howard's resemblance to Donald Duck led to an agreement in which Howard would wear pants.

Episode Notes
The phrase "nocturnal twins" from Jack and Jill doesn't sound like it makes a lot of sense, but if you watch the movie... it still doesn't make a lot of sense.
