What's the unique selling point of an Asian brand of bottled water called DMZ 2 kilometres?

The answer to that at the end of the show. My name's Tom Scott, and this is Lateral.

Welcome to the show that's been described by critics as a laugh a minute. Unfortunately, that minute was 11.45pm yesterday.

So let's see who's here to help us increase that ratio.

Well, it's the sort of show today that makes our question editors quite worried,

because we have an entire cast with us today,

all of whom write their own puzzles, their own questions,

their own things very much like lateral. So with the best of luck to our question team, we start with our returning

players from Escape This Podcast, Bill Sunderland, Danny Siller, how are you both doing?

Great. You'd think that would make us better at the show, wouldn't you? You'd think.

You have nailed quite a few

questions very quickly here before. I think we've rolled out the shiny bonus question for you

a couple times when we've gone through very quickly. True, but I have also seen all the comments

on the videos where we don't, and they sit there going, you idiots! How did you not know? It's a cube!

It's a famous cube!

I can't even remember that question.

That's clearly burned into your head.

Oh, I've made it up, but it sounds like a lateral question.

There's always a famous cube in the middle of these shows.

Danny, if you can name one famous cube we've talked about before, I'll be amazed.

I'm stuck on famous spheres right now.

We've definitely had those.
