Years and years and years ago, I had a board game that was based around “6 degrees of separation,” except that it only involved movies and movie stars. So the idea was that players would get two movies or two people and try to connect them in as few degrees as possible. The game was super fun (it came in a film reel-shaped metal container!) and could get really weird/hard depending on one’s companions. Man, I wish I could remember its name…
Anyway, the same concept easily applies to playing the game verbally by randomly picking movies or actors, though it kinda sounds like Shaun would have something of an advantage.
Admittedly, this is a temptation I’ve had, to basically just do trivia segments where I dip into my vault of board games and just ask questions. I mean, it’s the easiest radio I’ll ever do. lol But we’ll probably adapt something like that to an actor-themed Blank Check at some point as well.
