      Big fan of Zac from dimension 20 and other dropout shows. But I feel like the format of this show isn't ideal for his style of humour, where he's so good at responding to someone else's improv with the perfect brief reply, like on Make Some Noise 2-player or 3-player scenes, or as Colin Provolone to Brennan's character in a late episode of The Ravening War.
      Not that his stand-alone jokes were bad, but they weren't amazing. And we didn't get to see his ripostes.
      And/or like he's being extra polite and restrained here, no crazy over-the-top stuff because he's a guest on the big fancy network TV show? But still 2 segments left to watch.

      Crooked Dirty Laundry would work but not just the PSA guys.
      I don’t know how improv Taylor is so game changer would work fine or she could be on Monet’s Slumber Party. Ooh, actually, I bet she’d be great on thousandaires

      Put Lovett on Game Changer and I think he would have similar arcs to Brennan, especially if they put him in an unwinnable game. I would love to see Lovett in d20 at some point, I don't know if he would enjoy it but I personally would like to see it
      Anyone from Keep It would obviously fit with the Dirty Laundry vibe. Also probably Monet's Slumber Party. I think maybe some of the hosts from Hysteria might also enjoy Dirty Laundry.
      Also if you didn't know, Ify's been on Lovett or Leave It a few times. And Emily Axford was on a really early episode as well. Adam Conover has also been on PSA and LOLI too

      @@kl-1447 I've been thinking the same thing lately, having taken a deep dive into the Lovett or Leave it archives in the last few weeks. I feel like Lovett being a huge gamer would help him lean into the D20 vibe if he doesn't already have TTRPG experience, but I think he'd work best in a D&D type series, as opposed to one of the looser Kids on Bikes/Brooms, etc., series - because he seems like a man who would take comfort in getting into the crunch. Hell, I'd love to hear him guest on Naddpod - he would be amazing on a D&D Court ep.

      @@sir_vix trying to imagine Lovett on D&D Court, he would be either a Zac or Lou, hardliners for the DM or the player, I just don't know which, but he could argue either.
      As for D20, I do think a non-dnd system would be easier to pick up (idk if lovetts actually played dnd?). I could see him doing really well in a mystery-type season like Mentopolis since it gives a good driving plot and you don't have to have a lot of experience (compare to Hank Green's performance)

      You are acting as if Survivor is the pinnacle of quizzical and unsolvable scenarios. At the end of the day, it's a reality show. They don't want smart people. They want entertaining people. One could even argue that smart people would never even go on Survivor. At least, ones that have no performative prescence. That man does. Hence, why he's on a late night show. He sounded articulate. You sound bitter.
