Hello, I'm Debra Goldstein, host of the game show The Big Fib. And I'm the sound effects robot, Lisa. Each week we bring you a hilarious podcast where human-child contestants have to figure out who's an actual expert. And who's a liar, liar, pants on fire. Just listen to the...

These great reviews on Apple podcasts. User Addy Kitty says, I love this podcast. Lisa is my favorite. User Ichabog says, Lisa is so funny. Oh my God, they're right. And user Ice Wolf says, more Lisa, more, more, more, more. interesting selection who picked these reviews not me

Okay, I guess I am the liar. It was me. And oh, look at that! My pants are on fire! Everybody, my pants are on fire! For more fun facts and a few fibs, follow The Big Fib on Apple Podcasts or on gzmshows.com. Oh, my poor pants! There are kids in this world who are different. Special. They fell through a portal and got lost in the 80s. And now their time? is running out.

Adelaide. Why are you looking at me like that? Sorry, you just look so much like... Like who? Cyrus? You look as if you've seen a ghost. No, I... She just... Reminds me of someone I know. It's nice to meet you, Adelaide. Adelaide, Cyrus is a good friend of the family. I believe he can be the answer to our prayers. Really? You can help me? Oh.

Thank you, Cyrus. That's like a dream come true. I'm not sure I... Adelaide, sweetheart, it's time for your piano lesson. Why don't you go find your governess and get started? I'll pop in when I can. Okay. Bye, Cyrus. Bye, Adelaide. Tell me, why was she familiar to you? Your daughter. She's sick, isn't she? How did you know that? So that's a yes. Yes. How sick. The doctors do not think she will make it another year. I'm sorry. There's no cure? No. Not yet. Not yet.

The future. You think someone finds a cure in the future. You are a bright young man. Not bright enough to time travel and help save your daughter. But what if I can help you? Help me do what? You and I, we can work together to solve this problem, Cyrus. Together we can save my daughter and get you back home. You haven't seen her in ten years. Ugh. She's gonna slam the door in my face, isn't she? I have to make her understand that it's me. Her long-lost daughter.

Step one. Ring the doorbell. Maybe no one's home. Maybe that's good. Maybe I'm not ready for- Can I help you? Hi! Who are you? I live here. Who are you looking for, sweetheart? Judy and George Cavendish. They... They used to live in this house, right? I bought the house from Mrs. Cavendish, but I never met the husband. He was long gone at that point. Gone? Did he die? Oh, no, no. Not that I know of.

From what I understand, he'd left home quite some time ago. Tragic story. Their daughter disappeared with no clues as to where she had gone. No one could find her. Hard for a marriage to survive that kind of loss. Um, I... Oh. Did either of them leave a forwarding address? I'm so sorry, no. Mrs Cavendish only mentioned she wanted to get as far away from Seattle as possible. She didn't want to remember any of this. I can only imagine the pain of losing a daughter. Wait.

Who did you say you are? Thank you for your time, ma'am. I have to go. If you're here to gloat, you can keep walking. Maybe later. Tell me what happened. Can't wait to change that annoying recording. Hello, Adam. Jude, seems I've caught you off guard again. You have a way of sneaking up on a guy. Do I? Well, I'm glad I've run into you. I have a job for you. Out of town.

What makes you think I'll go? Is because I said so motivation enough? Huh, let me think. No. Well, how about this? Remember that request you made? From the robotics lab? You got what you asked for. The prototypes are ready? Indeed. And when you return, the lab is yours. That sounds fair. But when I return from where, exactly?

A salvage operation in Florida. Elixir Key. As you know, Elixir Key is gone. I need you to find what survived. Okay. But first, I have another little mission for you. Right here in Juneau. River, why does this microwave look so weird? I don't think it's a microwave, Sam. Well, what does it do? It says air fryer. Whatever that is. Listen, did you give any more thought to my idea?

You mean staying here in the future with our future kids? Whoa, who said anything about that part? You want to run away? Shh. You want to run away? How is it running away? They aren't our parents. We are their parents. But... Where would we go? How would we get money to live? We'll figure that out. I just know that staying in this house doesn't feel right. It's like all of our decisions have already been made for us. I know. Career? Family?

It's kind of scary. Talk about a spoiler, huh? Holiday! Sorry, didn't mean to interrupt. I can see that you guys are having a hard time. It's just a lot, you know? Oh, believe me. I know. I have an idea. River, grab the chicken breast in the fridge. Those gross pink things? Yep. Here you go, Sam. A mallet? Yep. Swing away.

You want me to hit the chicken? As hard as you can. Pound those suckers. Okay. Oh, you can do better than that. It's already dead. You're not going to hurt it. Give a real whack. Okay. Again. Again. Again. Whoa. That helped. Thanks. Wow. That chicken is like paper thin now. Impressive. Guess it is. Who taught you that? Well, the dish is called Chicken Monica. Your mom used to make it. Yeah. I know how confusing this must feel, like you don't belong, but...

Casey is looking to gather the pieces that can help you get home. That's real nice of this Casey person, but not necessary. I got you guys something to help you feel more at home. It's the box on the counter. What is it? Cell phones? So you can keep tabs on us? No, I thought... Hold that thought. Let me see who's at the door. Heya, Holiday.

How's life? No! Slamming doors on old friends? Now that's not very neighborly. Well, I'm definitely not inviting you in. What am I, a vampire? I can invite myself in. Thanks. Holiday, what's going on? Get out of here! Both of you! Who is this guy? Trouble. Run. What? Sam, River, you have to run. Now! Now that you've listened to this week's episode, head on over to the GZM Rewind feed to hear me and the creators talk with special guests, including cast members and superfans.

GZM shows. Imagination amplified. Hello, I'm Debra Goldstein, host of the game show, The Big Fib. And with me is our sound effects robot, Lisa, whose name stands for live in studio audience. And every week we bring on two grownups. One is an expert and the other is a liar. And it's the job of a human child. to help us figure out who is who.

because no one can spot a liar better than a kid. We've had past experts share fascinating facts about volcanoes, sharks, pizza, and more. And we've had some no good liars try and trick us with lies about YouTube, Roblox, and even underwear. Lying about underwear? Listen to The Big Fib on Apple Podcasts or on GZMShows.com and see if you can figure out who's telling the truth and who's telling big fibs. I mean, who lies about underwear?
