Episode 644: No Pun and Shut Case

Episode notes

Mary brings the case against her roommate Salma. They’re both fans of the card game called PUNDERDOME. But Mary says Salma is a cheater. When they play, Salma doesn’t make puns: just jokes. Who’s right? Who’s wrong?

With Expert Witness Jo Firestone (Dr. Gameshow, Ziwe)! Check out her new novel Murder and Sex Island and her new game Fruits!
