    This is a show where 3 people from alternate realities (multiverse theory) debate topics from each of their own realities. Nobody knows the topics ahead of time and points are awarded with the loser being banished from their own reality and joining a new reality chosen at random.

Q: Would you say that you're less likely to get food poisoning at one of the places that are targeted at tourists?
Maybe. I think they're more careful about things like not giving you tap water, not giving you vegetables soaked in tap water and that sort of thing, which is generally risky.
