Saw is a famous long-running horror film series. Why was the sixth installment mocked by French people

before it was even released? The answer to that at the end of the show. My name's Tom Scott,

and this is Lateral. Hello and welcome to episode 4 of Jetlag does Lateral. On the last episode, Ben and Adam had just solved a question about odd numbers in Japanese supermarkets. Meanwhile, we were working out how Latvian physicists sent a dinosaur into space. But then Ben used 300 coins to buy a platinum superpower that allowed him to see the answer to the next question. We completed the challenge to shake hands with 10 people who know where Belgium is, but then Adam played the super double reverse bonus card, which meant that he actually won the challenge. That means Ben and Adam have 45 minutes more in their time bank, but we've locked in one more question than them. So as we start day four, there's everything to play for. Incredible.

The season I was on was very, very quick and brief.

Just sometimes requires a little bit of explanation about how things work.

But we make it as simple as possible.

But we play games where the world is our board.

So travel-based competition shows.

And by the time this goes out,

season 14 should, hopefully, touch would, be in the can. The schedule that you'll keep to is ridiculous, because you are working on a season while publishing a season, while...

How do you keep everything in order? I'm going to throw

that question to Adam. Well, I think the funny thing is that, like, by the time that a season is,

the last episodes of a season are coming out, we're all, we're like completely past it, like,
