In Episode 20, the guys open by talking about a grumpy man in a coffee shop.

In the core of the show, Bryce and Caleb talk about Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, a novel by Douglas Adams. They discuss writing overly convenient circumstances and making them believable, laughing through the whole book, negative similes, and more.

The fellas bring this story back to StarTropics by talking about Douglas Adams's version of science fiction, and some conversation about British culture and mentalities, as opposed to the Americana in StarTropics.
