#### Necessary Background

Perceptive listeners of Dr. Gameshow will notice a recurring theme nicknames are hot! Examples are gamshow-vanists Silly Lillie, Prime Time Pauli G, Blitz, Old Tomato.

#### How to Play

In this game a contestant chooses their own nickname and has up to 45 seconds to sell us on it via a speech. Then an opponent will choose a different, preferably not too mean, nickname for them and also has up to 45 seconds to sell us on it, and then the contestant gets a rebuttal. Manolo will be a judge for who has the most compelling argument. Whichever wins is the contestant's nickname for the rest of the show.

#### Necessary Background

This is a game to test your knowledge of dead or obsolete words.

#### How to Play

Players will given an archaic word by Jo, but not the definition. The player then has to use the word in a sentence based on what the word means. Funniest use of the word, as perceived by Manolo, receives 1 point and the player that most correctly uses the word receives 1 point. First one to 5 points wins, or whenever Jo gets tired of playing this.

#### Callers

Steve from Staten Island

#### Necessary Background

It's Lillie again. I made a game called Crazy Narwhal or Long Crazy Whale with a Horn. You're a Narwhal and in your home it's pollution!

#### How to Play

Tell the epic story about how you escaped to a clean area. Manolo will decide if you go crazy and that Narwhal will lose the game. Depending on how well you escaped the pollution you are either a Narwhal or a Long Crazy Whale with a Horn.

## Winning Game

**Crazy Narwhal or Long Crazy Whale with a Horn**

## Manolo's Something to Go On

Make sure to clap as much as you can, even if your best friend just fell. Applaud everything.

## Trivia

The crew is in Studio B rather than Studio A . About half the in-studio cast are disorientated.

Manolo's dad, who used to be on radio, found out Manolo was on the radio and is tuning in!

Cirocco Dunlap doesn't know what a rebuttal is.

Justin, the call screener, voted for Clash of the Nicknames.
