Box: The Impossible Puzzle
Season 2023
Episode 18
A box that can't seem to open challenges several people to think critically on how to open it. Curiosity, frustration, and enthusiasm are explored as the guests exercise these emotions throughout their puzzle solving. The solution for the box might be handy too in a life or death situation, who knows? Box is a comedic parody paying homage to online explainer video producers such as Vox and Vice.
