Good episode. It was nice to get a "behind the scene" look on the Speedsolving forum.

Yea, I would say this is one of my favorite episodes in terms of teaching people about the cubing world.
Edit: Not teaching, more like informing.

For those who are interested in what a single episode's show notes looks like, here you go.
Note: The quickfire questions for Thom and I are not on because we read off of the same copy.
Thom and I are able to keep a good flow because of the organization in the show notes. Without it, I think the show would be much lower in quality.

John Johnson is a British spy in Germany during World War II. His had a German father and an English mother, so he was perfect for the job. He had great knowledge of the German way of life.
He was always careful not to give himself away and never made a false move. As the years passed and the war was tipping towards the Allies, he became encouraged and joyful that he would soon be able to return to his home in England.
One day in Berlin, he was day dreaming about his return to England. He was standing on the sidewalk, ready to cross the street when he felt a hand on his shoulder and a gun in his ribs. He’s been found out.
How did they know?!
Answer: Looked the wrong way when crossing the street.

John Johnson sat on his seat and waited for service. After a few minutes, a young lady came by and asked if he would like s omething to drink. John asked the lady for a beer. Since John looks young, she asked him for an ID. After checking the ID, she gave him a beer without a problem.
Four hours later, John ordered another beer in the same seat he was sitting in last time he ordered. To his surprise, he was asked for his ID again. When the server checked his ID, she said that it would be illegal for her to serve him beer. Thus, John Johnson was left in his seat, sober.
What’s going on here?
Note: It has nothing to do with blood alcohol levels.

I guessed correctly. (The guest AND the QQ)
C'mon guys, how hard could it be? If something is a surprise, then it HAS to be Pochmann
