Show Notes:
Jake Curtis described the opening sketch for In Mee-Owdieval Times: "We were all playing medieval people in different parts of McCormick. It was a big mess of three lines here and three lines there and three there and no one laughed. And then we would open with a dance and then jump straight into the first improv games." "We were all pretending to be on horses," Armstong added. "Ross Turkington took the lead on that opening because he's such a nerd about medieval history. I'm pretty sure it was his title for the show."
