We keep chatting with Neil about the last episode, puzzle design, the playtest episode, and why David Burtka is the best husband in the world.

We're joined this episode by magician, actor, and puzzle fan Neil Patrick Harris. As big fans of Neil's work, it was wonderful to find out he was a fan of ours, and then punish him by locking him in a small room for an hour.
