ure not allowed to plan what you say; as soon as you catch your brain preparing a word or phrase to speak, you must discard it; ideally you should be surprised by what comes out of your mouth.

round 2 is the "fun facts" game, where you do the same thing except with "Fun fact, did you know _______?"
round 3 is "would you rather ___ or ___?" and the audience has to choose
and ofc for all of this you have to discard every word that you *planned* to say

A related game is to ask people ANY QUESTION about themselves but have them promise to answer as quickly as physically possible. Many can't get over the terror of speaking before filtering but if they can even "what did you eat for lunch?" has strangely hilarious results.

try the opposite . plan what you will say for the next hour . stick with it. don’t change anything even if people ask questions.

I wonder whether the results change when you play frequently. I mean, you basically hand the mic to the Guesser/System1/intuition/guts, while the Ponderer/System2/reason/brain shuts up. And the Guesser learns by repeating a task over and over.
