I love how Brenan patiently waits and lets everyone else try to answer the DND question despite clearly knowing the answer
Its only to let their hopes raise so he can swiftly rip that hope away in a more satisfying way
In EXCRUCIATING detail too
he's too good

Fun fact, the reason for the whole Joker situation was because Gotham didn’t have the rights to that character so they had to dance around it.
Um Actually, it's not that they didn't have the rights per se, it's that Warner Bros wanted to reserve Joker for the movies so they wouldn't "water down the brand." Why that doesn't apply to ANY OTHER VILLAIN they used in Gotham, I don't know, or more importantly why they chose to water down the brand anyway with the terrible version of Joker in Suicide Squad. Oh yeah, and the final look at "not Joker" in Gotham couldn't look any more like Joker anyway (minus the green hair they apparently weren't allowed to use).
In the last season did they not make Jeremiah the Joker? I thought they finally chose to go that route after the fail of Leto
@@themonster6888 Quote from showrunner John Stephens "I feel like Cameron's character, in all the iterations of the characters that he played Jerome, Jeremiah, and the new character that he plays, if he's not The Joker, then he's someone who does provide the origin story for the person who you're going to see later on."
So... IDK?
(Incidentally, they describe the "third iteration" of Cameron's character being Jeremiah after falling into the vat)
@@davvolun So as I recall that came from Cameron Monaghan’s tweets, and as far as motivation goes, I think that’s correct. My understanding though, is that those restrictions did come in the form of WB not giving Fox the rights to use the Joker character, and the show more or less got around that by avoiding certain specific trademarks ie the green hair. Regardless, great additional info!
@@themonster6888 That’s a good question. I don’t recall them explicitly calling him The Joker, but I won’t complain about having a reason to rewatch his scenes.
The Avatar Roku bit made me realise that the contestants don't get to read the question, just hear it, and now I feel like they have it a lot harder than it seems
Yeah, and I don't think he repeats it, either.
@@KelpTheGreat nah he does repeat if asked to, they just dont usually because it means they're slower to buzz in
yeah, they should get to see the question on a screen
OK but water bending is literally a form of energy bending or as it's more accurately known, spirit bending, that's how water bending healing is done
Amon is an energy Bender he's just using blood bending as his medium, all bending is spirit bending
@@ConstantChaos1 energy bending can permanently remove bending. Bloodbending just blocks the flow of chi, something like one of those blocked meridians in cultivation novels.
I love how when Brennan questions Catwoman's villain identity within the context, Trapp just goes "Nice try, but fuck you, executive decision - yes."
I’m realizing this was probably Trapps way of defending the viewer who made the question- we all know how much he loves a technicality
9
He was also actually correct, the joker is in the show, he just only shows up in the finale
@@leontrotsky9268I believe technically that is not the joker like his name is the joke or something like that because legally they couldn’t call him joker so why he’s clearly meant to be that technically in the universe of Gotham the joker just doesn’t exist instead a guy with a very similar name and theme does
@@blistow3519
I mean no. He is the joker it’s just that they weren’t allowed to call him that. In the final episode he claims he wants a new name but can’t settle on one, only knowing it’s something beginning with “j”. In a similar manner they’re never allowed to call Bruce “batman” even in the final episode but that doesn’t mean he isn’t batman.
Edit: the idea is he will take the name “joker” after the series’ end
“I just want someone to put me in my place” Brennan is a power bottom confirmed
Um actually (ha) a power bottom is someone who gets penetrated while being more in charge/active than the person penetrating them
As a Brat, agreed
You use this quote to prove it, even though he deadass said "I want to get creamed" just 3 seconds later
@@danielcastillo591 all bottoms want to get creamed, not just power bottoms (source: Bottom Brat)

Um actually, Hentai?
Get in the damn robot, Brennan.
HE WINKED
This thread couldn't be more perfect
But who would write the questions?!
The first real life skill question Brennan ever got right was a bird fact
That's because it didn't relate to Siamese firebacks or roseate spoonbills. However he knows his roosterchickens
@@gerbendekker3273 hahahahahahha
I was about to comment the same thing 😂
And he got it wrong. The removal of the coating is a byproduct of the washing process, not the reason for it. Eggs are washed to prevent food poisoning from chicken feces and other yuck normally found on eggs.
Um Actually
I just wanna say, Frankenstein wasn't a monster for making the creature, he was a monster for what he did to it. He brought it to life, screamed at how it looked and left it alone, and cold. It never knew kindness and had to steal clothes just to be covered. It's like taking a baby out in the woods and leaving it there. The creature actually explains this to Victor.
I agree. Personally, it's been a long time since I've read it, but if I recall the "monsters" actions that were bad were usually a requiste for survival or self defense. Until he started to ya know, spend his life tormenting the Doctor.
Yeah the monster is hella smart in the book
I mean, he was kind of a monster for graverobbing and bringing dead people back to life when he had no permission from the dead people or their families.
@@yourfriendlyinternetmeatshield Um, actually Victor Frankenstein never received the title of Doctor. He never finished his doctorate.
Everyone should read Junji ito's Manga adaptation of Frankenstein
knowledge is knowing that Frankenstein wasn't the monster. wisdom is knowing that Frankenstein was the monster
Charisma is knowing not to bring it up.
Wonderfully put, although phrasing it as "knowing that Frankenstein was a monster" would bringt out the distinction even better. Up for debate, certainly, just thought I'd put it out there.
@@DrZaius3141 id say Frankenstein was the monster of the story
Also, The Monster is technically a Frankenstein, since he is Victor's son, in a sense
Ehhh In my opinion victor was the monster for his blatant abandonment of his creation and his desperate measures to hide the death of his brother going so far as allowing the maid and family friend to be executed leading to the death of his mother before eventually seeking out his creation to kill it but dying to it after coming to peace when hearing its story
Fun fact: Victors monster was never referred to as the monster and was not an ugly creature but rather a 7ft tall beautiful man with flowing golden hair and gold eyes and was even said to be as beautiful as Thor
Its hilarious that brendan called larry cukey the cuccumber but missed flowey the flower.
Yeah, absolute golden moment
And the freaking Great Deku Tree! Argh!
@@Oak_Eggar Golden flower
Um actually, it's Brennan.
@@TheFallingFlamingoI'm gonna start a new drinking game, going through the comments of episodes Brennan is in and drinking for every time his name is corrected this way. It makes me unreasonably happy.
The subspace emissary one hit me out of nowhere and I SHOUTED the answer across the room
And the replacement isn't even true. There's a Loud House fan fic that has more than 3 times as many words called "Revamped, Loud House and X-Overs"
@@diosrightcalfmuscle4090That one isn't actually valid. The writer of it will copy and paste whole Wikipedia articles in order to up the word count and assumes that people won't actually read it
@@axeheadshot7793 things are heating up in the "who got the longest fanfic" fandom
Yeah, I was surprised that no one instantly knew "the subspace emissary is from Brawl, not Harry Potter" like I did.
For real, the one question I knew the answer to and no one else did lol. It's one of those things that you hear in forums and it sounds so weird it just sticks with you forever
Brennan's Real Life Skill was actually a bird-fact in disguise.
I'm sorry, we were looking for a grouse...
Um actually, the Avatar movie question concept is a really good idea for a full episode. "We have here a stack of questions about the properties you passionately _hate_."
I would hate watch that so hard
The Avatar Movie, the Mario Bros Movie, all the other video game movies that suck. Doom, Bloodrayne, Tomb Raider and Street Fighter.
Don't forget Perry Johanson
And the hardest question would be lore from the ATLA movie that's slightly wrong based on the show
Replace those underscores with asterisks to make that "hate" be in *bold*
The way Brennan’s voice just cracks when he says “I don’t just know nerd shit” just friggin gets me… but in all seriousness I wish I knew as much nerdom and “adult shit” as he does XD
Such a beautiful moment :') Brennan is probably one of my all-time heroes, but definitely the only one that's a real person
"I AM NERD SHIT!"
-Brennan probably
I AM AN ADULT
I love the fact that it was the egg coating that is the life skill that Brennan has lol
(I think it's called the cuticle btw).
Also um actually, the eggs are also refrigerated in Australia xD
Which is because we also take off the outer layer, the dust. The reason for that is because if you don't wash the eggs and your hands before you crack and open the eggs, it can lead to salmonella.
Buuuut on the flip side, taking off the protection means if you take it out of the fridge and let it stay in the bench for too long, that's when the salmonella gets u into the egg.
@@Kewlausgirl Umm, Actually we do it because we refrigerate it in transport. If you heat and cool the egg repeatedly it forms condensation which allows bacteria to permeate the shell. We don't remove the outer layer, and all countries remove the dust prior to packing. As per Health Victoria:
"Do not: repeatedly move the same eggs to and from cool conditions. This causes condensation on the shell, which allows bacteria to enter the egg."
"Do: store eggs in their outer boxes at below 20 °C, until displayed for sale."
The eggs go to depots on refrigerated trucks that are set to 0-2C, when they are ready for dispatch they are taken out and sorted and often placed on a truck alongside frozen items to go to the supermarket. They're considered the least priority to put away (there is stuff like fish and meat that really need to go in first). As the rear of a store is often not air conditioned (and can easily be 30C+ in summer), they're stored in the fridge before going on the shelf (eggs should never be stored in an environment >20C).
To avoid that repeated heating and cooling, they're on display in refrigerated units.
Brennan always wins because he incepts the topics into the minds of the writers in casual conversation leading up into writing the episode…
Kirk being able to quote many episodes of The Simpsons instantly steals my heart. Gimme this singing silly guy
I love how they started the episode hoping Brenan might lose for once, and ended the episode with him not only winning by more than 4X the other players' scores, but he also somehow managed to get them to tie for last place, cementing his place as number 1 and leaving only the absolute bottom as the remaining option
AND worse than the other episodes because he also got the real life skill one
I love how Brennan said “I want someone to put me in my place” and then like a minute later said “I want to get creamed” like bro that’s mere better ways to say that
A weird way to phrase that he wants to get fucked, but surely more family friendly
He winked. He knew what he was saying.
I literally thought the exact same thing 😂
Better or worse than Marisha's "I'll come for you next time" comment?
Brenan saying "I will remember this", confirms to me that he is in fact a goose in disguise. An agent of chaos and truth
Can I just say how happy I am that they all know the Black Cauldron movie. My grandfather actually worked on the movie and I am so happy to hear that others enjoy it
I was gonna say, it was funny of them to give any shade for reading the books in the wrong order, cuz I think MOST people started with Black Cauldron first due to the movie, but it's actually the second book in the pentalogy.
Princess Eilonwy is criminally underrated and Disney did her wrong by never including her with the other princesses!
I don't know if I've ever watched the movie (if I have, it hasn't been in a long time) but I had these ausiobooks when I was a child. They were picture books and included a CD so you as a kid, would listen to someone narrating the story and see the pictures. It's where I discovered the Black Cauldron and it's a movie that I always consider as part of disney whenever disney comes to my mind
I just watched it again last year, it's such a weird lil movie I loved as a kid because I liked anything "medieval". He had good taste
Um actually, Janet from The Good Place is in fact “not a girl” but is frequently referred to with she/her pronouns and is accepted by the character and treated as canon
we stan she/her genderless cosmic entities
Um actually, they did mention this in the video
she/her enby icon
Brennan shouldn't have gotten this point. And maybe Marisha shouldn't either: being robotic does not necessarily mean being a robot.
@@MateusSFigueiredo the question was worded ambiguously on purpose-they were meant to correct that Janet is not a robot and likely hoped that the double meaning would trip them up.
Physically recoiled with how strong a reaction i had to the subspace emissary's world conquest being referred to as harry potter fanfiction, and even moreso that NONE of the panel members recognized it
"A collection of sentient plants"
Marisha: *immediately reverts into Keyleth and claps her hands*
The fact that the fanfiction question was the one I knew right away is so sad. And watching people randomly stumbling around the correct answer drove me nuts so congrats!
For the life of me I couldn’t remember the actual subject the fanfic was about, but I am proud that I heard the real fact before and could remember it wasn’t a Harry Potter fic
I knew both the fics, because I've read them before! :D ...and yes, it is pain that that's the one I knew first lol
SAME!
I thought the longest fanfic was a Loud House self-insert?
@@placeholder_username9528 Not sure about that one; however, the HP fic on spacebattles has, iirc, three to four entire threads for the story.
Love it that the only real life skill question brennan gets right is basically a bird fact.
This is a highly underrated comment
The slight zoom on "that would mean a return to feeling anything" was perfect, what an editing team 😂
I dont know why but Brennan's voice crack at "I don't just know nerd shit" is the funniest part of this video for me
i would watch just brennan on his own play this for hours. i genuinely love just watching him know niche shit. it’s very impressive and i love him for it
This mfer won 50k on who wants to be a millionaire, At this point I think we can grant him the title of knower of things
Although it was satisfying watching him not know things... Fancy not knowing Flowey or the Great Deku Tree!!!
Marisha did know though... That made me happy 😁
@@Kewlausgirlwwc
Um Actually bird fact episode
Brennan’s hypothesis about why the Joker wasn’t allowed to be name-dropped on Gotham situation was surprisingly accurate
also never seen gotham myself but in many dc universes the joker is only created through batman knocking or scaring the joker into falling into the vat of acid that bleaches and changes him to be insane, so a prebatman gotham with the joker doesnt make sense in many versions of the gotham setting
And that catwoman was never named and also never fully appeared until the last episode I belive
@@Saturnm0ss Nah, Selina Kyle (Catwoman) was one of the leads _Gotham_ since the beginning - she did only become Catwoman in the final episode, but it's because she was a child/teenager for most of the series, just like Bruce Wayne only becoming Batman in the finale (the final episode was a time skip, where the two finally become adults).
@@JubioHDX You'd think so, but Jeremiah - the show's version of the Joker, and the twin brother of Jerome (the red herring mentioned in the episode) - _did_ fall into the acid vat and all that! He fully became the Joker in the traditional sense (only with teenager Bruce Wayne in the place of Batman, obviously); they really just couldn't call him by the Joker name, due to rights issues.
@@bobbyfernando but I can't remember if they were ever named, like if we heard “Catwoman” out loud. If not you could just argue it was the same with Jeremiah and Jerome
Um actually (always wanted to say that) its "The Great Deku tree" not just the Deku tree.
Theres Deku scrubs, and Deku sticks and several unnamed trees with faces that could reasonably be Deku trees.
But the one's we see and converse with in the games are always refered to as "The great Deku tree"
Um actually, as sokka says in episode one, bending is not a magical ability, but is an ainchient art form native to each of the four nations' cultures
Yeah, that bugged me and set me searching for this comment x0
Um actually strictly seen it is not magic, but it is similar to magic. And magical just describes something similar to magic. Like a beautiful sunset can be magical even though it is not magic.
Um actually, it’s “ancient”.
Um, actually it was Katara who said that when correcting Sokka, who called it "playing with magic water."
It is a magical ability that is controlled through an ancient art form.
We need an episode with Brennan, Matt, and another dm where all the questions are about dungeons and dragons
Your third player is Brian Murphy. He occasionally corrects Brennan on the rules
I would like to suggest Griffon Mcclroy for the 3rd dm, simply because it would be funny
Mark Hulmes would be cool to see. He's British but he's the DM of Highrollers and a friend of Matt's
Travis McElroy
@@TehConqueror Yeah, Travis would be cool as well!
“I’m an ADULT I don’t just know nerd shit!” The way his voice breaks sounds just like Ragh when he’s upset and it makes me so insufferably fond of him
I like how the one real life question Brennan got at this point was bird related.
Brennan saying that knowing the reason for needing to refrigerate eggs isn't nerdy is so wholesome. Meanwhile our nerddom has us over on SciShow where they cover this
Brennan described Reverse Indiana Jones, and it was literally just every Jackie Chan character ever written
So naturally we need an Indiana Jones vs Jackie Chan movie
National Treasure
Or the updated Carmen Sandiego show?
@@LifeEleanorDeathNell that was my thought as well
To an extent, it's also Killmonger from Black Panther.
For anyone wondering, this is the uncensored version of the already uploaded one.
Thank u lol
I was trying to figure out why I had seen this one already
Bruh, i thought i was psychic
Thank you
Please accept my like
Um, actually to answer Brennon's question regarding why Dorne was never conquered by the Targaryens is because the population of Dorne was not compromised of either The First Men or the Andals, the two most prevalent ethnicities of Westoros, but instead primarily decedents of refugees from Essos that fled the expansion of the Valyrian Freehold. Basically, they knew about dragons, knew how useless conventional warfare was against them, and understood the tactics required to defeat Aegon's army.
And um actually; if you count the Riverlands and the iron islands as two separate kingdoms currently conquered by King Harren, there are *7* kingdoms: the north, the Westerlands, the eyrie, the reach, the iron islands, the stormlands, and the Riverlands. The Riverlands had their own kings in the past but had been conquered by the iron born at the time of conquest, and aegon appointed the Tully’s as riverlords. So there *were* 7 distinct cultures and political groups who add up till 7 kingdoms. With dorne; there are 8
It depends on where you count the iron islands
You want to put Brennan in his place?
I want to see Abria, Matt, and Brennan all answering pure D&D questions and see who comes out on top!
Personally, if you want to see him put in his place, watch a DnD game with Emily in it :P.
Brennan's voice cracking as he said "I'm an adult, I don't just know nerd shit." Was probably the funniest thing in this episode.
absolutely obsessed with kirk's entire simpson's bit, i literally cannot get over it. he deserved at least 5 points for that performance
I would have been so angry if he didn't give it to him
It was incredible haha
Like he just ranted and explained the whole thing in detail haha
Uhm, actually, he didn't say "uhm, actually" and should not have gotten points.
@@kaspermoss8198 um, actually it's "um*, actually"
@@thornprick2645 same, I would’ve been angry too. It’s not incorrect to leave Chief Wiggum out of the quartet members. This guy is a good host.
I love the fact that Dorne avoided conquest via guerilla warfare- I imagine the rulers leaving their capital and living in hiding, along with the army, forcing the Targaryans to send their army roaming around, while the dragonriders can do nothing without a target.
While every other kingdom fell, because the standard warfare and castle seiging methods they used fall apart against dragons.
more or less! The dornish army retreated into the desert where the Targaryans didn't know how to fight, attacked bases and then fled back into the desert before the dragons could be mobilised against them. Whereas a static castle can only be in so many places. This, incidentally, is why weapons technology hasn't progressed at all since there have been dragons on Westeros because they're the ultimate weapon
13:30 what I love about this segment is that the knowledge that a room full of people is limited to only however many brains you have in the room finding answers for this but when you post this online and millions see it there are millions of brains that know millions of different things so you’re almost always going to get corrected if someone missed something in their research and I think that’s super cool. Like so far I haven’t known a single thing about these but I bet there’s a question you could come up with that’s extremely vague but it is something that I know from my life and then it’d be my comment up there correcting the thing you don’t know. I find that fascinating.
When I see Brennan I
GET IN THE COMMENTS!
IN THE COMMENTS!
Can someone make a playlist with brennan episodes
i have arrived IN THE COMMENTS
Brennan screaming IM AN ADULT feels more relatable than i would like to admit
The voice crack in it made it amazing 😂
it’s become the thing I yell in the mirror after I have to do Adult Stuff
Um actually I 100% agree with Kirk on The Simpsons question: the Be Sharps didn’t win the Grammy until Chief Wiggum had left and Barney joined the group and Homer saw Marge’s new bumper sticker. “Baby on Board” won the Grammy and it had nothing to do with Chief Wiggum’s initial involvement because he had left. Saying Chief Wiggum was a member of the “Grammy-winning” Be Sharps would be like saying that Ryan Ross and Jon Walker were part of the Tony-nominated band “Panic! at the Disco” when in reality the Tony the band was nominated for was in 2018, LONG after the band was reduced to it’s final member Brendon Urie. Referring to the band being specifically “Grammy-winning” negates Wiggum ever being there because the band was never Grammy-winning when he was involved back when the quartet would sing at Moe’s Tavern to their only audience member, Barney.
Um actually chief wiggum was never part of the be sharps because they came up with the name after wiggums was kicked out and they replaced him with Barney.
I think it depends on how you look at it. My best comparison personally is for example the military unit citation. Unit members who didn't participate still get to wear the citation, because it's awarded to the group, not the individual. The same is true for the group awarded Grammy. Therefor the statement "award-winning group Be Sharps" is technically correct.
Brennan saying he is an adult and doesn't just know nerd things was deeply felt in my soul.
As a huge fan of Avatar watching them trying to do the first question KILLED me knowing amon was using water bending, not energy bending
Thank you, i was so frustrated
OMG, same!
I would have buzzed in early to scream “it’s NOT magic, it’s bending!”
@@DuckDoolittle
Same thing.
@@JameyMcQueen It’s literally a quote from the show. Katara says it in the first 5 minutes of the first episode. I know it’s magic in a literary sense, but it’s not magic in universe.
I've just noticed that under Marisha it said "Professional D&D Player" not even "Professional Voice Actor"
I mean, for the nerds watching, that's the more important info. :D
And the fact that Marisha has been a celeb/pro dnd player longer and has only done a few voice acting scenes (see the critrole Halloween episode where everyone dressed up as their voices characters) especially in comparison to her fellow VO actors at critrole
She's also a creative director at CR.
I love it that the first time Brennan gets a Real Life Skill question is soley because it's a bird fact.
I love how Marisha Ray just seems like a big fan of the show.
If you want Brennan to lose....All real life skills, one nerd question
Everytime Brennan yells “GET IN THE COMMENTS!” I always feel so empowered
brennans voice breaking after he got the real life question right killed me
I can't believe I managed to passively go decades without finishing Lost and still not getting spoiled, only for Brennan to do it in this game 😂😭 Alas.
He's wrong about it anyway
My favorite part of the fan fiction question is that the super smash brothers fan fiction they reference wasn’t just the longest fan fiction at the time, but was the longest single piece of English literature ever written.
Um, actually, while Amon was not an energybender, the lion turtle that taught Aang to energybend was also an energybender, as well as four lion turtles seen in Legend of Korra, and these abilities seem to suggest that- much like how all flying bison can airbend, all dragons can firebend, all badgermoles can earthbend, and the moon and ocean spirits can waterbend- all lion turtles, in fact, can energybend, not just avatars Aang and Korra
While this is a minor technicality, we don't know for sure if what the lion turtles shown in Korra would be considered energy bending, as it could just be giving the ability to bend that *one* particular element. If that were the case it could be called elemental energy bending. Idk
Wait are energy bending and spirit bending different cause can't Aang's granddaughter do that shit too?
@@conwaytwittyer2667 Jinorra is able to spirit project, which is an advanced airbending ability similar to how water can heal and fire can redirect lightning! Any advanced airbender can do it, but it’s neither energybending, nor spiritbending
@@Whitewizardofwater but then how does iroh project himself into the spirit world, also just unrelated would it be possible for other benders to redirect lightning considering it's based on water bending techniques?
@@conwaytwittyer2667 To my understanding, there’s been some speculation as to how Iroh ended up in the spirit world, ranging from that he achieved enlightenment, to simply being so in-tune with spirits, to the idea that the spirits themselves brought him there. Personally, I’m of the belief that dying played a role, as he waited until death to do it before meeting avatar Kora
And I don’t believe others can- except insofar as water itself can redirect electricity. Firebenders can bend lightning, so it makes sense they can redirect it. That said, it *would* be neat if other benders could unlock more bending styles by learning from one another
I feel so spiritually close to Brennan, because this is literally the only life skill question I know the answer to as well lol
When I moved out on my own I had to read so much about eggs just to know if I had to cram them onto my tiny fridge shelves or not
Here in Europe most egg packadges actually have a sticker on them that tells you not only the expiration date, but also the date on which you should start refrigerating them (usually after like 2-2.5 weeks)
With the release of the Avatar: The Last Airbender Netflix live action adaptation, they absolutely do an entire “Avatar” themed episodes that consists solely of questions about the live action movie, the live action Netflix show, and (just to fuck with players) Avatar the blue people movie.

Knowing something that the people on the show don’t guess is so fun because you get to see them try their best while you’re shouting at the screen that the answer is a major story twist in Legend of Korra season 1
The Chronicles of Prydain are basically my favorite books of all time, so I loved Kirk's initial response to hearing Fflewddur Fflam. And then I died a little inside when they talked about the movie version, not being sure if he was a bard or even was in all 5 of the books, and reading them out of order.
Love the "surprise round" question specifically planted in there like a landmine for Marisha, since Critical Role used the older version of this rule for years.
For some reason even though I never played 4th OR 5th I still somehow knew they'd taken out the surprise round. Knowledge floating around the ethereal plane I guess.
I’d say that they could do this at Comic-Con but they couldn’t because people would shout out the answers abusively.
Nah, they'll whisper, gasp and scoffs tho.
Um Actually, there's at least one from NY Comic-Con that's was uploaded in 2019 ua-cam.com/video/3yQYVRzuP7M/v-deo.html
I used to bodybuild once upon a time. When you brought up rage I remembered a guy that always listened to what I thought was weird music to motivate him. I asked him about it one day. He took off his headphones and placed them on my head. It was his alcoholic mom screaming at him nonstop for hours. RAGE!
@29:33 I actually always found it weird. I grew up on a farm in California. One of my grandparent's primary source of income was raising chickens and selling the eggs. So growing up, I always found it weird that we didn't refrigerate the eggs from our own chickens but, after moving and being forced to get rid of the farm and all of our animals and crops, we did refrigerate the eggs we bought at grocery stores.
25:43 Brennan would LOVE Carmen Sandiego then, a very charming and intelligent “good side” turned adventurer who grew up as an orphan in a spy school, who turned against her school heads after learning it was really a super villain school, and who now works against said villains- in some cases, stealing artifacts from museums in order to keep them from the real villains who want to make a profit from them, and often time returning them to where they originated, or to somewhere safe for said artifact.

Brennan being repeatedly disillusioned with the Dropout game shows he’s on is endlessly entertaining
The correction about Sigil actually made my day. Currently running a planeswalking campaign that centers around the city of doors and I'm so happy there's someone else out there who cares about it too
The city arguably has a fixed pronunciation, but the word itself meaning a magical symbol is pronounced either with a soft or hard G depending if you're speaking US or British English
Huge planescape fan here too
@@leow637 yea the magical symbol is pronounced "si-jul" but the city itself is pronounced "si-gul" and the book itself makes it very clear that it's pronounced that way. There's even a funny line in the book that is a "quote" from someone who lives in the city and it basically goes "I can forgive you for killing a yougoloth within 5 minutes of arriving, because you're a clueless outsider, but you pronounced the name of the city "si-jul" and I can't forgive that"
As a European, the crazy thing about the fridge egg situation is that most fridges I've had came with an egg holder. Nobody I know refrigerates their eggs but we've got holders for them anyways.
It’s nice for when you wanna store cooked eggs for some days tho!
Poison Ivy isn’t technically a plant, it depends on the continuity and the time the comic is being written. She was a woman who got plant powers but more recently she was reborn as a full plant person in the Tom King story Heroes in Crisis.
I'm glad someone said it so I didn't have to.... She especially wasn't a plant in the pictured version that they used.
Didn't say "um actually"

For a second I thought you were talking about just the plant poison ivy, not the character, and I was REALLY lost for a second lol
@@candlerunner botanists ftw
We don't talk about Heroes in Crisis.
I know this is a reupload, but it features one of my favorite Um, Actually lines. "Ooh, interesting. We're going to, though." The delivery was just perfect.
30:17 Um, actually, AS A DUTCH PERSON
Most people here do refrigerate their eggs. I guess you're talking about supermarkets, where eggs indeed are not refrigerated. But most Dutch households I know put their eggs in their refrigerators.
Because this show is all about correcting, I just thought it would be fun to add that.
Françaises, Deutschen, any different for you?
I'm Finnish and I've never seen a refrigerated egg in my life, for what it's worth
*français unless you're a huge feminist which is cool with me but probably not what you were going for, we do refrigerate our eggs but I'm pretty sure when we buy them they aren't in fridges
@@Lonely_Raven_666 1 You didn't say "um, actually" which I am a bit sad about.....
2 I keep françaises for all those who don't know the French language nor it's grammar very well. But yeah, it's "le français, les français". I don't even feel bothered about getting that one wrong.
3 How did you not notice the thaught? (Anyway, it has been corrected now anyway.)
4 But ok, so same as us then. :)
Um actually its Deutsche not Deutschen
If you say how is it for you or something like that then it would be Deutschen.
And nah its the same here
Eggs are stored at room temperature in supermarkets
But in refrigerator at home
College humor has become the snl of UA-cam with how much funny talent it features and grows
it genuinely pains me that i instantly knew the fanfiction question
same
When he said "longest piece of literary fiction" I was immediately like "Smash Bros,, Subspace Emissary something something"
@@sunnyokapi My instinct was 'Taylor Varga' because he doesn't stop writing it lmao
@@morgansearle3912 I've never heard of that one!
@@sunnyokapi it's better that way. Only like 2 million words but with almost no actual conflict or story, and less materially written about than in a story four chapters long.
It still saddens me that no one knew what the Subspace Emissary was, my damned nostalgia won't let it go!
I felt the same way, the second he said Subspace Emissary and my inmediate reaction was: "OH MY GOD! SUPER SMASH BROS BRAWL!!!"
Brennan predicting the Jerome Twin-Joker is forever going to make me giggly.
For the Dorne question I believe there was a large section of mountains and dessert also seperating them from the rest of the kingdoms that made it notoriously difficult to invade with an army. And then yeah the geurilla war tactics and a scorpion bolt took down Rhaenys and her dragon
Also, the Dornish dropped a bunch of scorpions on the leader of the Reach while he was sleeping in a castle in Dorne that he had conquered.
That Brennan voice break as he gets the real life skill question. If done for comedic timing he is a genius if not, this is just treasure
The "I'm an adult, I don't just know nerd shit" has got to be such a great soundbite 🤣
13:00 Um, actually that's The Great Deku Tree, not just The Deku Tree. Gotta have that Great.
To continue the line of roku tangent "um actually roku was a lion turtle?".
@30:05 I love how Brennan's voice cracks just a little on "I don't just know nerd shit."
I like how the one time Brennan gets a Life Skill question, it's essentially a bird fact.
My hatred for Avatar Roku will never end, he was a lava bender and died in a volcano eruption
Um, ACTUALLY, it isn't "magical", its just bending... -Katara, Ep 1
I have never felt such frustration and joy about knowing the answer, and having nobody on the show get it right until this episode.
(It was about the longest fanfiction)
Ugh the Avatar: ATLA question was _killing_ me! I usually don’t get why people talk back to the tv or their phones, but I was aggressively saying, “Um, ACTUALLY” to this video 😂
I’m so glad you understand. It was killing me. I thought every nerd knew that the Subspace Emissary was Brawl’s story mode
I miss Subspace ;w;
i've never felt so ashamed to know the answer, but here we are.
As soon as I saw longest piece of english literature I was like um actually its a smash bros fan fic. I've known about it since like 2014 and its just hit me that that is not common knowledge
The reverse Indiana Jones Brennan described is literally almost exactly a DND campaign that my roommate has been saying that we should start for a year
Sounds like Killmonger except the old ladies part.
@@NishithThakkar Killmonger talked a big game, but stole a mask from a different culture than his own simply because he was "feeling it." He then tried to take over the world using Wakanda's resources. Dude was a hypocrite.
@@NishithThakkar except he stole it to make money selling it not to take it back to Wakanda
Favorite episode of Um, actually! Love the guests :)
I just found this channel today and I have loved everything I have watched. This is a great show.
Absolutely crazy how none of them knew who flowey or the great deku tree were
Um actually marisha knew who flowey was just not the name
Ummm actually... None of the bending is considered magical. In the first episode katara specifically says bending isn't magic
Yeah that was the first thing i picked up on too, but that's kinda a hard distinction to validate i guess, my next guess was amon but i couldn't remember the right info about him
um actually amon wasn't an energybender as that is a skill only the avatar can possess, but he was a bloodbender pretending to take away benders' abilities to equalize everyone.
i know it is mentioned but i legit noticed it when the question was being read
"A rose by any other name..."
@@madelineewing1022 Um actually the lion turtle should be considered as an energy bender.
@@madelineewing1022 why would only the avatar be able to energybend?
I’m so mad that I knew the subspace emissary question and was screaming at the screen
30:31 only store bought eggs- eggs fresh from the chicken would have the waxy coating and as such need no refrigeration
I love how Marissa spoke for us all when she threatened to burn him over considering the live action canon.
Um, actually, her name is Marisha ;)
11:17 So weird that Brennan doesn't know Undertale or Zelda, seems like huge games for him xd
Him not getting Flowey or Larry the cucumber is such a weird thing for me. I haven't played Undertale or watched Veggietales and I still know them
I have never watched a full episode of this show and have never known how much rage it can induce if you know the answer and nobody else does.
Brennan with the bird fact cleverly disguised as real life skills
Um actually, Brennnen hit the nail on the head. Just like how it wasn't purgatory in lost and then turned out to be purgatory, one of the Valeska brothers who wasn't actually the Joker DID turn out to be the Joker.
They didn’t have the legal right to put joker in the show, so he would never turn out to be the joker in the show.
Neither Jerome or Jeremiah are canonically the Joker in the show, both are considered precursors. That is why they played with Jerome being a more classic Mark Hamill style Joker while Jeremiah is closer to a Jack Nicholson style Joker.
As a big Lost fan this 'it was always purgatory' shit is really infuriating. It's not correct, at all. The only parts that are in 'purgatory' is the flash sideways scenes in the last season, EVERYTHING that happened on the island was real and actually happened. It's a common misconception that stems from a few things. 1. The credits of the finale shows b-roll footage of empty sets/filming locations, which some dumb people took as it meaning none of it was real. 2. Due to Lost being a long show with a weekly format, a lot of people missed out on certain episodes and didn't follow the show very closely, so when they watched the finale, they were confused and misunderstood many things. These same people started the rumors of how nothing was real and it was always purgatory.
I know for a fact it wasn't purgatory all the time because the show literally tells you it was all real like minutes before it ends. Christian Shepard says (paraphrasing here as i don't remember the exact quote) that the island was real, everything they experienced on the island was real, every death was real etc, etc. And the showrunners have several times stated that it was all real.
Like i'm fine with people disliking the show and/or the finale, that's entirely fine, but i hate it when people bring up this factually incorrect take that has been debunked by many, many people, but most importantly by the show itself minutes before it ends and then these people spread around the same shit take.
@@tyf.5111 in the same way catwoman is never called catwoman thus technically speaking Brennan was right the first time (sort of)
