Script Slaps: 6

"Kind of Inevitable": 4.
Simon was also showing off his lack of understanding of 1950's, 1960's British Film industry 'working class' icons as well as one of British TV icon series "East Enders" recent mainstays Barbara "Babs" Windsor.
This British 'Blonde Bombshell' was in films like "Belles of St. Trinian's", through most if not all the "Carry on..." Movies and then of course in East Enders. She was appointed Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire (DBE) in the 2016 New Year Honors for services to charity and entertainment. She is still going. Look her up Simon, she has a fascinating background.
By the way, I was born in Woodberry Down, about two thirds of a mile from the Catholic school in Stamford Hill where she won a scholarship to attend as a girl.
Brian Richman thanks for the info
Danny definitely gets a percentage of the proceeds!
I'm not sure about the added DNA? I don't think that I would do that. You might end up cloned!
Simon have this bloke write your video descriptions. Utterly brilliant
one day i hope to see a coffee script slap
You can make a drinking game out of this xD
"William Shakespeare -- he's before my time."
"If this channel's not successful, you're destroying the environment."
This is why we love you, Simon.
Technically he's destroying the environment. We'd just not provide him with the external motivation he unreasonably demanded before doing something about it.
"Shark meat doesn't taste bad, it tastes like Dolphin"
-Simon Whistler, man of the people
Shark meat would probably really taste like piss, because sharks don't pee. Instead they store the chemicals that their kidneys filter from their blood in their body fat. Shark meat is basically solid pee.
i can almost hear the hippy heads exploding

Shark meat only tastes bad if the shark is not prepared properly. You must bleed the shark immediately and then clean / filet. If you do that and then rinse the meat well in vinegar or lemon juice... then it is probably my favorite fish.
About the best place to get shark is in Trinidad at Maracas beach... they have vendors who sell "bake and shark" which is a fried flatbread cut open and fried shark filets are put inside... then there are tables with 10-20 different toppings... one of my top 3 meals and I've been around and had some good food...Bake-and-Shark ranks right up there with really good fajitas. So if you are ever in Trinidad, go to maracas and get some bake and shark and always ask if it is real shark...sometimes they try to substitute another fish because shark is in demand and more expensive than other options.... It is a firm very white meat mostly with a mild flavor that is perfect for transporting the seasoning they use....and don't forget the pineapple slices and shado beni and pepper sauce.... I am very hungry now.
Pretty sure he meant the dolphin fish, not bottlenose. 🤣

The donkey that shits coins is from a german fairy tale by the brothers grimm.
Its about a 3 sons that were banished from their fathers home on accident. One went on to become a woodworker's apprentice. When he finished his apprenticeship, he got a table that magically set ifself. But because he was flaunting it in a bar, it got exchanged for a non-magical one by the bartender. The second became a miller's apprentice and got a donkey that shit gold when he said "bricklebrit". But because he didnt pay attention, his donkey was exchanged for a different one by the same bartender.
The last brother was a woodturner's apprentice and got a bag with a big stick inside. When he said "knüppel aus dem sack" (stick out of the bag) the stick would quickly hit any fiend unconscious. This brother heard of the other brothers fate, and went to the same bar and flaunted the bag, not showing anyone what was inside. In the night, he pretended to sleep, and the bartender tried to exchange his bag for a different one, but the brother jumped up and said "knüppel aus dem sack". The bartender promised to give him the self-setting table and donkey. The next morning, the boy returned home to his father with all 3 magical items. The father quickly called the other brothers and the rest of the family for a feast.
This is just a summary, of course, but this is the origin of the donkey that shits gold.
Was it made by Brother Grimm? They just wrote down stories (though often changing them a bit) from tales that were passed down verbally. They may have made some I'm not sure
"under the orders of the new *self elected* president" is that a fancy way of saying dictatorship?

@@JoshSweetvale it is, it's just really tense
"If this channel isn't successful you are destroying the environment. Tell a friend."
This is why I love this channel so much
"Half the answers you didn't ask for" is possibly the most accurate motto for this channel I have heard yet, I think it should be made official, like T-Shirt level official, maybe alongside the Queens head in rollers with a loosely hanging cigarette so when people ask about the image on the shirt you can make up whatever and then point to the motto.
I really want a BB shirt with this as the motto.
Shut up and take my money!!!
Hahha, yeah, I'll see about getting that on a shirt :D
I can sketch the Queen with hair rollers and a cigarette hanging. That would take a few hours.
I have never purchased merch from a UA-cam channel, I would make an exception for this one! Lol.

“ look Germany you had a couple of shots to make us all speak your language, it didn’t work out... ok” - Simon Whistler. I need a shirt with this quote!
So do I - and I am German! :)
Hysterical!!!
Yes, but English is based on German....so........
@@ShoalBear Well sort of, it would probably be more accurate to say both languages share a common ancestor.
@@WizzardJC Thanks for the correction. I took a class once that showed how Latin languages (French, Spanish, etc) all were on a different branch from English & German. I forget the exact image used, but it seems to have settled in my memory that English was from German. So I probably remember it incorrectly. Again thanks for clearing up my babbling!
Ok, so the German stuff:
1.) it's Nohdgeld (like node and to geld) Which literally means "money to be used in an emergency situation" or "replacement money in emergency".
2.) the donkey is part of an old fairy-tale of three brothers who each inherit something from their father. The eldest a gold-coin-shitting mule, the second eldest a table, that magically serves you food on command and the youngest a bag with an enchanted club, that will bash anyone on command. The two elder guy get conned by a inn-keeper, who takes their inheritance and the youngest uses his magic club to beat the inn-keeper to a pulp and takes it back. fun times.
3.) The one with the desk on fire reads: "If Christian had found some gold, we wouldn't be in this dire situation." This is apparently a reference to Duke Christian of Saxe-Eisenberg, who ruled from 1680-1707 and tried to fix his enormous debts with Alchemy, i.e. trying to find the forma to create gold. (Credit to Lassmiranda Dennsiwillja, see replies further down)
4.) Lassmiranda Dennsiwillja is a reference to the Simpsons, when Bart prank-called Moe. Literally it means "Let me have her, because she is willing to have me". :p
Amazing, thank you :)
I know that note from a museum not to far from where I live. The front says something along the lines of: The more depth we run up the more money we'll print.
But I still don't know who Christian is.
@@brainblaze6526 no, thank you! FYI, I'm totally drawing that graphic of the queen right now 😅
@@alicemcgalatee459 Christian, Duke of Saxe-Eisenberg, ruled from 1680 - 1707. He collected quite some debts, but hoped to overcome his misfortune with alchemy. Didn't work out.
@@friemo660 Which, at that point in time was basically the same thing. When everyone is importing their porcelain at ridiculous prices, being able to make your own means you can more or less print money.
WHO: COVID-19 is a pandemic
Me: Ooh a BB video I haven't watched yet! *click*
Simon: Let me just lick this script I want to sell later.
@@brainblaze6526 What if I'm more of a Heineken man?
I was hoping you would mention the Zero Rupee Note that was issued in India!
From Wikipedia: "A zero-rupee note is a banknote imitation issued in India as a means of helping to fight systemic political corruption. The notes are "paid" in protest by angry citizens to government functionaries who solicit bribes in return for services which are supposed to be free."

Aaand now we need Business Blaze merch with a picture of Rose and the sentence "slap me like one of your Blaze scripts" written on it
@@Arterexius oh good lord yes!
I love how this is the only channel I have ever seen that actively encourages its viewers to dislike videos haha
SMASH THAT DISLIKE BUTTON.
(Twice. Then gently brush the like button)
I smashed the dislike button so hard I cracked my screen. ☹☹☹
🍍
I’ve had a few who say ‘dislike if you feel like it’, but I agree for the most part.
I think UA-cam just values engagement more than whether people like or dislike the video.
It’s unfair that you can only pick one ☝️
Love how Simon casually drops in "it tastes like dolphin" and just moves on
The Cook Islands: 'Everyone’s happy. If you’re not happy, you’re in the wrong place' The Cook Islands is a self-governing island country in the South Pacific Ocean in free association with New Zealand
The kinky Zebra sex mask will forever be one of the cornerstone memes of this channel.
where can i find that one i must have missed it
Oh lord.... I'm going to have to do a meme count for sexual perversions now, am I?
@@brianjrichman you are doing gods work, and we all love you for it
@@mancavegamingandgardening9901 Bless you my son/daughter or however you self identify. ;-)
I need to know the origin of this meme.
"Legends and Myths in Modern Language" by Danny.
I can't wait to read it.
I'm so excited. I would buy this. Hard-bound.
Definitely sounds like another channel
More like "Can't wait to hear Simon read it aloud and add his own commentary"
"It's not that long, it just looks massive" - Simon Whistler being very modest!
That's what she said.
I am SO annoyed that that didn’t occur to me the moment he said it!
It takes four minutes for Simon to even begin talking about the topic of this video.
I love this channel.
"...like my more professional channels where I actually make an effort." 😂 I mean I like the other channels, but this is literally why I like this one. 🦓
Exactly!
"weird zebra sex mask you've been eyeing up for months"... YEEEEES!
:D
I agree! Love this channel!
BUT EDGAR MY FEET!
That CEO who got canned after blowing up in an uber wasn't just any CEO- he was the head of Uber.
Oof
Simon: Shark tastes like dolfin.
Me: How does dolfin taste?
Like shark
@@mikea2764 you understand it
love the idea of selling the scripts; Simon said it so much now, that there is no way this will not happen. I'm glad Business Blaze is getting some love and growing as a channel. Danny's always amazing, a big part of the charm of the channel, on par with Simon's jokes and reactions. At 100 k subs, we need a new mask!
I would bid on it
Please do a Piegon mask
I think a zipper mouth latex gimp mouth a a ball gag hanging loosely around the neck should be the 100k subs mask. Maybe put Danny in it so he's still anonymous. You guys can have a little person lead him out on a leash.
@@chrisclifton7276 I like the anonymity idea for Danny via mask, but I think it should be something slightly less hackneyed. Maybe Danny could wear the weird Zebra sex mask, and Simon...something else entirely non sequiter.
TataUrs maybe a chicken sex mask? Possibly something more sophisticated like a dolphin sex mask, you know... cause they smart and shit.
The Queen's portrait on the newer Canadian $20 makes her look like your mom when you come home after curfew with no excuse - she's got a look that screams disapproval, disappointment and disdain . . . it's a wonder to behold.
rictus grin Ben Franklin on the $100 looks the same way, that disapproving look is there too.
Classic queen
@@Tiberon098 that's cause ben knows wat people roll him up for lol
The queen on the Aussie fiver is the smile of a mother who loves her dumb shit criminal son but would still probably rat them out to the cops.
@@brainblaze6526 OR {maybe} what the band Queen should have used for the image on their album "Killer Queen". 😏👵👺👑💵 👨🎤📀
15:53 "What if I like lick it?"
You mean we can own the DNA of Simon Whistler?!!🤣
Suggestion: Simon... if you want Sam to be shown some "love" in the comments... how about saying "Sam will put the image here."
Comment: This was another mildly entertaining video. GG.
Yeah, but then how do I take all the credit? ;)
@@brainblaze6526 Snarky comments are all yours. :P
"It tastes like....you know, dolphin" 😂
the donkey from the "zwei Mark" note is a reference to a fairytale "The Wishing-Table, the Gold-Ass, and the Cudgel in the Sack"
Now there's a Today I Found Out video idea if ever there was one.
@@michaelfoye1135 Its a pretty old Fairytale, here in Germany. It goes actually so far back that german figures of speech reference it. Namely the "Sehe ich so aus als würde ich Gold scheißen" (Do I look like I can shit gold?)
@@theexchipmunk I have heard that expression.
@@michaelfoye1135 Maybe in the context of GoT? I think it was said that Tyvin Lenister was so rich, that people thought he shat gold.
@@serduncan6933 No. The expression was floating around New England in the 80s. I don't think I've heard it anywhere else. So its likely the result of a few krauts, or kraut enthusiasts using the phrase.
“I’ve eaten shark... tastes like dolphin” 🤣
BaHahahahaha 🥢🦈🥢🐬🥢
Danny's scripts are brighter than a billion suns. Simon is a legend in his delivery and quick witted repartee.
golden shower shark fetish currency, welcome to the internet lol
Totally under rated comment. This should be the Internet's official motto.
Also, I triple dog dare ya to google search that.
@@timothyneiswander3151 Well, first result is this very video. After that, long time no money, and then only boring designs ...
Maybe the search terms are too weird together. I once did an image search of the term "tool box" because I wanted to see different styles and got a pic that I cannot unsee.
Sam's meme game is tight on this one, "a student sitting at a desk on fire"
Sams meme game is always tight. Even behind the scenes when we communicate Sam is a meme lord.
Sooooo.... I subscribe to several of Simon’s channels; As an American, a British Accent sounds to me like the smartest man in the room explaining to his “simple” friends from across the pond important stuff we would have known had we lived in a thoroughly modern European country. Then along came Business Blaze which jerked open the curtains to reveal the Wizard was, in fact, a delightfully goofy dude who revels in the amusingly odd and would be LOADS of fun to drink with. Kudos, DudeMan Simon - now I may have to buy some merch.....
I had to pause several times just so I could breathe again from laughing. Really good one Simon and Danny.
I can't do graphics, but you totally need a t-shirt that has Queenie sporting hair curlers on the front, and the pooping zwei mark donkey on the back. Under Queenie it should say, "Awesomely written by Danny," and under the donkey, "Fantastic edits by Sam."
Front pocket can say,
"Business Blaze
Talking head: Simon"
So, there's your new merch.
I'll buy it.
I threw together a quick (read:shitty) edit of a particularly fitting photo of her- with a cig, and a baseball cap. I'm not up to date on where it's best to freely host it though- I mean without like blindly agreeing to give them my body for experimentation and shit. If someone knows I'll share it here, though I already sent it to Simon lol.
Thinking about what Simon says on his approach to BB in this video, maybe quick/shitty isn't the right label... maybe something like Business Blaze Express?
New 'buzzword' for content produced and 'complete' but somewhat... Less professionally? Meant that with love there, it's probably about the biggest reason BB is probably my favorite (or close to) of Simon's channels.
Bank notes with scientific notation. We need these.
"half the answer for the question you didn't want to hear". Very brilliant!!!
Man I need that on a shirt. “business blaze....... half the answer you didn’t ask for”. awesome Simon, simply pure gold!!!
yea as a Canadian I can tell you, those old ass bank notes have LONG since been retired to make way for newer designs! we switched to polymer years ago!
Simon, can you do a BB video on the East India trading company and the spice trade?
Aaron Slickers, I asked that same question after watching one of his other channels just yesterday. I watch them all and don’t remember which one it was. Might have been BB.
No need to, because I can spoil it for you: it was Walpole.
We have a $2 bill so that whenever someone tries to use one we get articles about how the cashiers(and managers) think it is fake.
Tells you all you need to know about the education system.
“Half of the answers you didn’t ask for” I love that motto. And it’s part of what I love so much about Business Blaze. I love that it keeps me thinking afterwards
"Ohhhhhhhhh, put my coffee down..." I was wondering if you would forget you had the cup in your hand.
Isn’t that cocaine-laced Guinness? I feel that would be more on-brand for Business Blaze
I think the mask should be a piece in the background, I remember liking the video to get simon to buy and wear it. I was very happy to see him keep his promise, and to see him in a zebra sex mask.
I think we should put it on a bank note!
Make it so, Number One
Just to differentiate it from his other channels!
Simon & Danny, this has to be the best Business Blaze yet. I was nearly shitting coins out my ass from laughing so hard. Keep up the good work.
I like this channel, well all your channels are amazing, I like the candid feel and how loose you are and it’s very entertaining.
Simon didn't mention the shark shaded her on Yelp and she was ne'er Ubered again in all her days.
Yes, it's tastes like dolphin, has now replaced it tastes like chicken! 😄😄😄🖖🐩
So... Who's up for a dolphin hunt on the dl...?
Maybe not pc/eco/whatever but I wanna taste one now.... 🤔
@@otakuman706 😄😄😄😄🖖🐩
I LOVE THIS CHANNEL!!! I wish I had come across it sooner, I'm subscribed to all Simon's channels but it never popped up in my recommendation
I have decided to become the MOST AWESOME LEGEND because I have decided to just let Business Blaze autoplay all day in the background at work. I have already watched them all numerous times, so I feel like this is just a friendly boost! I love you Simon!!! Bada-boom-boom-TSSSSSHHHHH
We all know that the Beard controls Simon and not the other way around
I am a slave to its will.
@@brainblaze6526 I don't want to troll, however As I'm a fan of you Simon I'm *NOT SO* a fan of you eating Dolphin. 😡 👨🏫🦈🧞♀️💵 🐴💩
@@Friendship1nmillion
Now I want to try dolphin even more...
Even having swam with them on multiple occasions- usually just random encounters in the wild from living in Fla. - and generally finding them to be pretty great encounters.
And yeah, kinda a dick move from various perspectives, but hey, they can be assholes, just like humans-- seriously dolphins are right up near humans with some of the fucked up shit they do. Obviously without the mass, 'technical' side, but rape, 'torture', and stuff like that is plenty bad on it's own.
Not that that makes it 'better', but I'm still curious, and while in theory I agree with like 'animal rights' and the like, I still eat meat. I do think it should be done 'better' than it is in far too many places, but I'm an omnivore. I wouldn't expect an animal to feel bad for eating me, and if that happened I don't actually think I should 'get mad' at it for consuming me.
At times past I wrestled with this myself, but I 'got over it' eventually.
To live we must consume, and aside from like health perspectives and species population declines and the like, the 'lines' many people draw over what they should/shouldn't eat is too often more about making themselves 'feel better' about it. And I definitely think its far better to approach it more like various indigenous groups and some hunters do, where they generally try to only take an animal they need, with as little needless suffering as possible; and using 'all' of an animal possible. They generally also 'respect' /'honor' them, at least to a point, knowing they are taking that life to continue their own or their family's, not for needless 'fun.'
Sure a puppy is cuter than a cow (to most anyway) or a fish, etc., but no real reason to say one is more or less a valid choice objectively. And yeah we definitely identify more and whatnot with animals than plants, but they're still alive. Maybe a different 'level' but that still just our definitions, ones which are constantly changed, updated, and expanded.
Very few actually thought plants really communicated, and even then, many would have said it was only the most rudimentary (and therefore 'lower') ways. We now know this is far from the actual full picture.
Oh, and none of this is meant to say not to do it if you want, there are various reasons it can be/is good, to be on 'alternative' diets, but I think the picture is more complicated than most vegetarians/vegans/pescaterians/etc. like to believe.
Well... that really got away from me...
I started to say that because doing it (eating dolphin) after your comment 'put a cherry on top.'
I satiate curiosity, AND get to annoy someone online? Ding ding.
And yes this isn't exactly 'in line' with all the ideas above, but I'm far from perfect.
😋
Plus I doubt it'll actually happen....🤔
I would buy this shirt.

“Look Germany, you had a couple attempts to get everyone to speak your language. It didn’t work out, ok”
🤣🤣🤣🤣 that is the most casual and dismissive description of 2 World Wars I’ve ever heard! LEGEND!
Just want to add - YOU (Simon) wont be 'punching it up the screen' but it will be hard working Sam. Yes, I've learned to share the love after the last video.
true. thanks Sam!
A man at a desk that caught fire is clearly a cry for help. "This is hell!"

If you want a more professional way to call someone a dick head call them a Richard cranium.
Yes it does. Didn't realise that wasn't an international one ;)
its a slightly less rude way of saying Dick Head - but remember its the very tippy top of a dick head, the bell end. so the 'best' dick head, the chief dickhead,.
I keep thinking Simon is saying “Daddy” not Danny. It’s making me question everything.
OMG this is the first "Business Blaze" video that appeared in my recommendation feed and what a ride... You won my subscription with the humour as you had me laughing every second...
Thanks :)
Simon just called out all of Germany, tune in next episode to see who wins!

In this case, as a German, I have to agree the Germany stuff is hilarious.
I listened to this at the gym and just burst out laughing. Thank you, Simon.
Nice :). You're welcome.
this channel is gold, so much meme potential
Two dollar bills are really convenient, since almost nothing costs under a dollar now. The only problem is that they've never seen them and think they're scarce, valuable, and collectible. You can just pick them up at the bank.

"Zebra sex mask" - Reading my mind again Danny??
I just wish I could find a hypoallergenic version, Amanda.

I was mildly informed but greatly entertained!
Well the donkey is from a fairytale where a donky poops gold for some reason. I think it was called "Goldesel" or something similar. And for the the record the o should be pronounced longer otherwise it sounds as if you were speaking denglish and saying not geld (not money) instead of Notgeld.
That's what he meant when he said we Germans complain about having mispronuonced "Rahhraarahh".
@@0ldFrittenfett So what? People also complain about us mispronouncing English, so we're even ;)
Simon's next UA-cam channel fairytales revisited written by Danny with Photoshop from teenager's with pirated photo shop.
Also good suggestion for a biographics video is Viola Desmond she's currently on the Canadian $10. She was a black Nova scotian durring segregation who worked to help educate and train black women and was famously arrested for sitting in a white only section of a theatre in a over simplification
What did she train black women to do?
@@bluesira she was a beautician but was unable to train in Nova Scotia due to segregation and had to train in Montreal and New York. She opened her own beautician school so other black women wouldn't have to travel as far to receive education and provided them with skills to set up and run their own businesses.
It's a joy seeing Simon's vibe in these videos.

Hey we haven't seen the zebra mask in awhile. Suspicious!
I sold it for drug money.

@@brainblaze6526 Ah-a; drug money/ took it home for personal use-- who could tell 🦓 ?
The $2 note in the US is for "tipping" at the strip clubs. They figured out if they only give out $2 bills for change, then the dancers make twice as much.
noice
Is this true? I am a 33-year old American & I have never heard of this.
Although I can imagine strip club owners taking advantage of the existence of $2 bills.
But any ATM I have ever seen usually gives $5as the lowest denomination of currency. At a strip club, I imagine you have to "break" the higher bills by buying drinks if you want to tip the dancers. Having never tipped at a strip club, I couldn't tell you.
Leather, rinse,... repeat. Doubles sales of shampoo overnight.
Can confirm. That's the reason PT's Gentlemen's Club here in Portland only gives out 2 dollar bills.
@Teena Fluet When you have no idea what you are talking about you shouldn't say anything. No, it is not "their own money" *sigh*. And I seriously doubt anybody cares when they started printing them. They are nothing but a novelty today, many people don't even know they exist, no cash register has a $2 slot, no vending machine would take one.

A "quid"is simply a pound.....do you think it is weird that yanks or Canadians use "buck" when referring to a dollar?
Also, half-pennies and tuppence a haven't been around for decades......I never had one as change when I lived in the UK.
Also, a "bob" is simply a term used to describe 1/20 th of a pound, or as yanks and Canadians have nickels....do you think nickels are weird?
(A shilling was called a "bob" and was equal to 1/20th of a pound....but these are now simply 5p coins)
Finally, they have not had Guineas for about 50 or more years....
Remlat Zargonix We use Freedom Paper™️, sir.
Quid is just slang for a pound. Half pennies and bobs were from pre-decimalisation as were shillings and guineas. We moved to pounds and pence in the 1970s so your knowledge of British money is over 40yrs out of date.
We now have pollimer twenties notes in Scotland. Can't speak for the English though.
The pollimer twenty I got out the ATM the other day was issued by Clydesdale and featured a purple image of Robert the Bruce staring contemplatively into the distance (presumably trying to remember if he left the oven on), with a redish spider underneath (not sure on the significance of this).
Can't remember what's on the tens, but the last five I saw had some big blue fish on it... No idea why.
Im pretty sure the new 20s rolled out across the whole UK starting in February but I haven't seen any in England yet, I'm guessing since twenties aren't as common as a fiver or tenner it will probably be slower. That being said I know the designs are different in Scotland so they might have come out a little earlier.
Oven remark gets you another like, sir
Ezra Price the designs are different because Scotland has three banks that print notes.
wait, you don't know the story of robert the bruce going into hiding and talking to a spider for a few years before coming out and kicking the living shit out of the english? you're missing out, how are you scottish and not know that story?
