Ethical Considerations of Pranks

In this podventure, we discuss the episode “Pranks for the Memories,” in which Odyssey is stricken by a rash of pranks. Who should be behind it but the self declared Prankster King, Curt Stevens. Curt boasts that he is above retaliation for his practical jokes. Ah, but heavy is the head that wears the prankster crown. Like many famous kings before him, Curt descends into paranoia, accepts wisdom from dubious advisors, and becomes the author of his own demise. Whit and Tom are here. Tar and feathers are involved. Also, the slowest roll a punchline can have, a discussion of risk-reward re: pranking strangers, and the hardest left turn in Discussion Question history.
