I love that when asked why she would want to send a coconut to Fiji, Sally answered "I was on Taskmaster," and almost stopped there, as everyone would understand that such random things are legion in that show. 38:20
The “test subjects” (aka people) on the sex raft created a strong bond and were genuinely excited about the concept (not the sex part sailing a small vessel across the ocean). Most of the women are still in contact which I think is a fantastic middle finger to the psychologist.
look up the book ... Kontiki ( 1970's (?) - a homemade raft made out of trees , was sailed from africa to south america )
Yeah this was a pretty bad summary of the actual insanity of the researcher and the sanity of the subjects.

The unrivaled sibling energy of beating your brothers tree planting record by over 3000 has me in stitches
discovered QI trying to find something new to watch after rewatching all of taskmaster, and this show is so much fun! love being able to learn some interesting things in between the comedy
I love this show. It takes me well over an hour to watch each episode because they bring something up and I have to go and look it up on the web and learn more about it. Learning. What a concept.
I guess you could say every episode is quite interesting?
10:00 happy to hear I'm part of the 40% still trying to find and listen to new stuff. UA-cam has actually done more for my musical interests than Spotify, Pandora, or anything else
This might be my favorite episode ever. Taped as the first barely-post-lockdown show, it is sweet and remarkably poignant. And Alan won. :-) Thank you all.
Sally Phillips, Sara Pascoe and Susan Calman. My three favourite women on QI.
Funny, intelligent, original...
the american policeman joke was great.
Timestamp please.
39:25
Thank you.
Now, please remember for the next time.
Wish You’d posted this yesterday, as I just helped the neighbors dig a round hole for a new tree.
Alan winning with +150000 must be a new record for him. Well Done!🙃
Thank you from this Yank to QI, and for the Taskmasters reference, I'll try to check it out! Love from across the pond...❤❤❤❤❤
Can't ever get enough... Some 1 from the U.S. thanks you!
I love that when asked why she would want to send a coconut to Fiji, Sally said "I was on taskmaster," and almost stopped there, as everyone would understand that it's the kind of show where such random things are legion.
I am 56. The 80's were my 'Let's go out and drink and dance until we drop' decade.
I abandoned Radio 1 for many years because it played detritus. I thought I was turning into my parents.
But, some of the new stuff is really good.
I feel like my parents 'getting ' Bohemian Rhapsody. I'll get my coat...
There's an enormous amount of new music, much of it excellent. you just have to seek it out, since most of the publicly promoted stuff is pablum made by men in white coats to sell to the lowest common denominator. Is there any genre you particularly like?
@@whispersmith I loved Cliff Richard and The Shadows when I was 5/6, but loved my daddy's Count Basie, Howlin' Wolf and Herb Alpert records, too. My mother loved Frank Sinatra.
I listened to the Beatles, The Who, Dylan, The Rolling Stones, The Yardbirds, The Animals, Bob Marley, Roxy Music ... music surrounded me, from all quarters.
Queen, Led Zeppelin, Genesis... Punk, New Romantics...
My record albums (paid for by me, with my own pocket money) - Dire Straits, Simon and Garfunkel, ABBA, Madness, The Police, The Eurythmics, Phil Collins, Simply Red, The Lighthouse Family...
I really love me some old school Rap - the lyrical, poetic complexity is marvellous. The Grime scene is rather splendid...
So, when you ask "Is there any genre you particularly like?".
You tell me!
this might be my favorite episode
Excellent episode... 😅😂 sorry elections are hardly random when the choices you MUST choose from have been picked for you😂 Daliso was on fire with that comment about American policemen 😂😂
To the good people at Binge: Would it be possible to add Closed Captions to your videos? Would help those hard of hearing immensely
Yes! Please!
Yes 🎉
I'm glad I'm outside the average for the music bit. I'll put on a UA-cam music station of a genre I like and let it play, and I've discovered a lot of new music I really like that way. I genuinely really enjoy hearing new and different music
I prefer that painting during the raft bit with The Pogues faces better😂
Thanks for posting
So long as you aren’t posting a coconut to Fiji
@@AlwaysBolttheBird Bastard's cryin', innit?
Its curious that it the diagram of round vs square holes for planting trees the arrow shows the tree root turning 90 degress to start growing in a circle
Kind of enjoying/rewatching the Sandi episodes more than Stephens - better guests?
Also availability. However, as time goes on, even with availability being equal, I think you'd tend towards watching more recent episodes just cus the facts are more true.
If you learn something from Sandi era-QI you can add it to your list of fun facts to bust out at parties, whereas at this point, I doubt people would feel that same thing watching Stephen-era QI.
@SillySpaceMonkey or you'll watch them more just because you've not already seen them a gazillion times maybe? It's a rare day I won't get something of a QI fix.
That's gotta be the worst comment ever, better than Stephen 😳 not possible
Mythbusters did the bullet fire/drop experiment with extreme accuracy and showed it to be the reality.
That experiment Bill did was pretty good for an off the cuff and sally picked the right spot for where the nurf bullet hit the ground great stuff. And produced evidence of a phenomena which seems counter-intuitive. 😊
David Scott, during the Apollo 15 mission, dropped a hammer and a falcon feather on the moon, and they both struck the ground at the same moment. The historical precedent for these, was Galileo firing a cannon from the bell tower of Pisa Cathedral, and dropping a cannonball at the same instant, circa 1590. Both cannonballs hit the ground at the same time.
Magpie warblng is lovely
Infectious disease spread usually follows a sigmoidal function; it could only be exponential in an infinitely large population.
In this show they specified that a site that is run by computers spit out random songs. Computers can not make a random number, it is just a really long process that makes the appearance of a random number. There is nothing random about computers when the are working like they should.
Computers create pseudorandom number sequences. But these are, for all practical purposes, the same as random. Only in the most esoteric mathematics does the difference matter.
A computing unit can't create a random unit out of nothing, but it can take several truly random seed values and add multiple layers of non-linear functions and operations to turn the values into essentially random numbers. Google Johnson-Nyqvist noise for one of the values commonly used in conjunction with other values to calculate numbers that in practice are truly random
Computers can have chips that specifically generate random numbers based on random inputs from the outside world
Have a 1950's and early 60's playlist of what my Korean vet stepdad listened to. I'm not that old if you try to calculate, that war was 70 years ago... he way like 18 years older than my ma, a cradle robber. He was in his 60's when I was under 10.
My dipstick of a pops was perving to Jenny Mccarthy's beach summer cd and ace of base (bass?)
I take umbrage that I should be listening to korn like my brothers have been doing their whole lives on repeat, that or Prodigy. The look on my face is cross confusion. I've only heard of Wowaka and Miku or Air for a couple of years, I'd trade all the music I've ever heard to only hear Air and Wowaka for the rest of my life exclusively.
There is one from that "nostalgia" time,; Beats Anique. The rest can 🔥
We use CO2 scrubbers in our refuge chambers underground at the mine I work in. We also have oxygen candles. Pretty neat stuff. Too bad we have to be in an Absolute emergency to use these items....
People stopping listening to new music at 33 is weird to me. I dont consider myself a “music person” and yet I go out of my way about twice a year to find new music.
I don't actually believe the random is actually random, or shuffle on YT music anyway, I listen to it quite often when I am out92-3 times a week), I have a playlist of nearly 900 songs and yet it plays the same 50 or so with sometimes the odd one I haven't heard is ages, unfortunately I think this has to do with YT's obsession with promoting things you have listened to or watched before over a truly random playlist(I get the same recommended videos over and over, so there's that), and this isn't just in my head, I actually have written down lists of the songs I have heard and it is sad how unrandom they actually are, I have a huge playlist because I actually would like to listen to random songs, when it was google play music the algorithm was a lot better, but when it got taken over by YT(I know same company) it lost it's edge, I don't use other music services so I can't say how others work.
The comments about Saint Jacinda aged well
What's Bill's buzzer song? It rings a bell but I'm utterly blanking.
Status Quo - Whatever You Want
If Deezer is anything like Spotify in how it suggests music to you, it's not exactly a good yardstick for how wide your musical tastes are. In my experience, unless you explicitly go outside the suggestions and defaultish playlists, it'll just repeat itself over and over.
In other words: It make me wonder if we're seeing narrowing musical tastes or just a side effect of the recommendation algorithm.
Canvass top tape is still called Duck but it looks like a Brand not a kind-silver color always since 50s called duct by my father back frm WW2
38:25~38:34
Quick mind change Sandi 😊❤🏅
That is true. When I turned 27 and got the news I was going to be a father I held off from having an upgraded stereo in my vehicles. Now that she is a teenager and getting into loud music as of this last Xmas I installed a 2nd battery in the trunk with currently 800 watts RMS in total running from my Orion XTR 750.4 A/B series amp to each of the 4 component sets I have setup and a monoblock CT-SOUNDS 1000.1D Amplifier wired to push my 10in CT-SOUNDS Tropo 10in subwoofer between 1,000-1200 watts RMS in a sealed enclosure. LOL I really missed it but I wanted my daughter to grow up healthy and without hearing problems. 🙃 So yeah it was 13 years I held off from setting up a system let alone listen to much music during that time.
Sally comes out with the oddest stuff....
26:53 No matter how well we fared in NZ during the pandemic, we still had some truly idiotic protesters outside parliament with Trump hats on (why???), screaming that Jacinda Ardern was a 'whore' and that she needed to be arrested (still not sure why, as their signs all had random and contradictory slogans). Ardern is practical, intelligent, compassionate, and has immense integrity.
Now we have a PM who is famous for saying "I know we all want to go out and spread our legs... I mean, stretch our legs" on live TV. At least he made fun of himself for it.
It was even better when he turned up to a later news conference with a 'spread your legs mug'.
Honorable mention for him tromping through the bushes to an impromptu media event while he was on holiday. 😂
They need contestants like Phil Harding and Tony Robinson.
18:51 They got this wrong... duck tape and duct tape are NOT the same product. Duck tape is made from a fabric called cotton duck; duct tape is tape made from metal foil. Also, there IS a Duck Tape brand duck tape- but they also make duct tape... and masking tape, and packing tape. 😂😂
And I do not see any relation to Dutch...
I was going to say the same thing, and add that actual duct tape is pretty lethal to use. Sooo many cut fingers when using it without gloves on.
Home grown tomatoes are better because we let them ripen naturally. Commercial tomatoes are sprayed to speed up ripening but the inside doesn't mature, like a home grown one.
There are some good cherry or smaller tomatoes, but a red tomato in the grocery store rarely tastes good. San Marzano all the way; I use it on sandwiches, for pastes, sauces, cannings, drying, bruschetta... That is a diverse and tasty tomato I will stand by!
Close. Commercial tomatoes are bred for their hardiness, not their taste. They have to survive the picking, transportation and processing. Taste was not a consideratrion when developing these varieties of tomato.
The tomatoes are, at some point, exposed to ethelyne fas (which ripening fruits like bananas and apples,) give off naturally, which causes them to ripen from the outisde in, which turns them red, but does not affect the inside of the fruit as rapidly as the outside, which can leave a green-tinged interior.
In finewr establishements, you can find heirloom tomatoes, which have a marketly better taste and texture. Unfortunately they can be 3 to 4 times more expensive, compared to commercially cultivated tomatoes.
Canned tomatoes, do not need to survive intact after picking and transportation. They're going to be processed anyway, so those varieties tend to have a better flavor, compared to the commercial tomatoes you find in the produce section. So use canned tomatoes whenever you can. Otherwise, if you need a fresh tomato, bite the bullet and get an heriloom tomato or do without (I do without -- can't stand commercially grown tomatoes.)
9:34 I'm pretty sure Taylor Swift wrote that song herself
Of course not!
For the music only the Swedish producers Shellback and Max Martin are credited.
Her name is only included for the lyrics, together with those guys.
@@DerEchteBold right...the lyrics...that she wrote?
@@Sapientia21
No, you misunderstood, all three names are credited for the lyrics, so she probably changed a word or two of the lyrics those Swedes came up with (or their algorithms rather).
The bullet fired and dropped claim is incorrect. If you were to have centimeter incremental lines, the fired bullet has a velocity which carries it further aloft per line ...whereas the dropped bullet passes through each line as one would expect from gravity.
Oof…these COVID episodes have not age well.
Duck tape is a brand of duct tape
Confused about the aging of dogs. Dogs age x 16 + 31? If her dog is 4 years old, wouldn't that make it 95? What am I missing here?
The formula given was: (Human Age) = 16LN(Dog's Age) +31
You forgot the Natural Logarithm there.
A 4 year old dog would match that of a 53 year old human with this formula
@@mosjeschwartzman5960 It's still not correct, though. that formula doesn't even produce a positive age for the first 53 days of a dog's life.
By their Calculations My 14 yo Dog is 255 in Dog years.
Myth Busters
25:08 ... Men have more broken bones than women ( YEP - correct - I have had 11 broken bones & my wife - not broken a single bone )
It may be because I played a lot of sports, was a bike messenger in a big city , had a piano fall on me ... while my wife ( not a sports person ) read books in the library growing up .
that "virtual audience sound like a horribly badly encoded mp3. Just a annoying blubbering background noise. baaad idea.
Money was exchanged on my eighteenths birthday, because those in my hometown that knew my propensity to homemade explosives, bet I would not make it to eighteen without losing a finger. Hey, ten and ten, pay up! I wish this was a joke, but it is not. Hey, I'm crazy, not stupid.
The formula for a dog's age cannot be correct. using that formula, a dog would have a negative age for the first 52 days of its life.
Can’t stand Sally Phillips, so this one’s a miss for me.
What country is run by women lo
The comment about NZ handling the pandemic well aged poorly lol.
If you're going to bring that up on quiz comments, then as a Kiwi I think we did just fine and the death rate was way lower in NZ.
@@krissp8712
Better than most other countries that's for true.
But it wasn't all sunshine and roses, and now almost no one even follows any of the measures for preventing virus transmission unless they are forced to for their work.
I'm mostly just tired of outsiders thinking NZ is some utopia with zero social issues at all, run by a Govt that's perfect in every way. When the reality is much different.
This would be much better with comedians laughter sans the canned laughter. IMO.
It’s not canned laughter; it’s audience laughter.
Once again, Alan Davies mistakes loudness for humor.
After that damn "American Police Officer " remark.... I would have turned and fired everyone I could get at him..just for for makin the damn remark!!🙄😒😶
a bit sensitive are we?
i own an autographed copy of "the lost moon" by jim lovell, the lead astronaut on apollo 13. the movie was based on his book, it's an absolutely fantastic story. and ron howard did a beautiful job showing us that story. one of my top all time favorite films.
DARWIN AWARDS: i witnessed firsthand a darwin award near kaiserslautern germany in the early 2000s when a man was believed to put on his solar viewers during a solar eclipse that germany experienced that day, and drove his car off the road and crashed. we were about 3 cars behind that car, i was in the us military, taking some equipment to the ramstein air base to get calibration with my supervisor. i can point out exactly where it happened on google earth
