  • 160 - Slang Gang
    Jun 16 2025

    On this 60th episode of ClueLess, host Elliott Kalan gives Sean a special learning segment ahead of his trip to London, an all new game - Slang Gang! Since Sean will no doubt spend much of his London stay hanging out on rooftops with chimney sweeps, we thought he needed a primer in Cockney rhyming slang, one of the most obscure and impenetrable types of slang on the planet. Can you guess what the Cockney rhyming slang terms mean before Sean does, and can you solve a MegaClue which is almost entirely Cockney rhyming slang?!

Ok, 3rd times charm leaving a review. I'll get it right this time!

This is an awesome way to spend 10 minutes or so stuck in traffic. If you love puzzles, Elliott is a brilliant host and Sean is awesome as usual! It is just delightful - funny but also a brain stretch! I highly recommend!

Brilliant!
