@@MightymajinWade has the best one-liners, Mark has the most out of pocket stories/hobbies, but Bob genuinely has had so many good & funny arcs on this show that I often find myself always rooting for him 😭😭 Like the coin flip season will forever be seared into my memory at how goddamn hilarious it was 😭
Forever a fav. The look of panic. The pure emotion. The synergy that exudes from this trio is like the 3 stooges, the OG top gear etc. 3 parts to 1 whole idiot. I hope they do another soon. It has to be mark and wade tho. Bob has to do the questions cause he has the best memory of the 3 of them.
So happy you guys are putting these on youtube and I can finally catch up. As usual, laughed until I cried during the second round of questions. What was worse is that I was answering with them and kept giving the right answers for the wrong questions, so I just made myself laugh harder. Such a fun episode. Wade deserved that win.
This episode really showed off Bob's growth throughout the podcast. From being upset over redoing a topic to mentally tormenting his friends with 20 EASY Question! It's definitely up there with Bob's Fridge levels of memorable.
Well, business rates usually also include a service package that the normal end user doesn't get. It's also a forced barrier to entry. "They", which is providers and governments don't want single end users to have over a certain bandwidth for several reasons. One is maintenance effort. If I've learned something first hand is that just because the infrastructure is there and the hardware is installed, doesn't mean it works as intended, so you can have the beefiest 10 gigabit line connecting to your house, but if nobody complains that it doesn't work, because nobody is using the bandwidth, they'll never gonna send someone over for maintenance. The other thing is a similar issue to...let's say buying specific machines, raw materials or chemistry related hardware. Nigel from Nilered talked about this once, where he bought some large glassware. Like, it was one of those giant roundbottom flasks that nobody ever uses unless they wanna prepare large amounts of specific substances and he later got a call from a drug officer, basically asking him what he planned to do with that giant flask, basically making sure that he wasn't planning on cooking that one relatively well known substance. It's kinda similar to that. They don't want single, private end users to have access to gigabit lines for cheap, because of all the nonsense you could get up to if you did. From piracy, to DDOS-Attacks, to the generally illegal kind of data. We used to have a law, that GPS for personal use on your phone couldn't have precision over a certain threshold, because superaccurate GPS was classified as a public threat. Same for encryption. I'm not sure if they've amended the limits at this point, but you can't have personal encryption on your PC or your phone over a certain key length, because that aswell, is classified as a public threat. So in Europe we use that system where the solar power directly powers your home and if you have a permanent solar array, you have to get it registered and they give you a small amount of money for each kilowatt hour you generate, IF it is registered. It used to be in the era of old power meters that if you generated more power than you used, because that's what happens most of the time, solar power is much more efficient than people give it credit for, that your power meter would suddenly start running backwards and power companies didn't like that very much, because you get far less money back for generating power than you pay for consuming it. So nowadays you can have a bi-directional smart meter that tracks how much goes in and out separately, but at any time, you use the power generated by your solar panels or battery first. However, power providers NEED to know how much extra power you put into the system, so they can properly control grid stability. But yeah, with the credits, that's totally an american thing and not at all a shady business tactic. On the other hand, I guess they also want those solar panels on the grid permanently to provide grid stability and as far as I know, it's even illegal to completely disconnect your house from the grid once it's connected
I’m not a plumber, but I will say that it almost sounds like they are taking advantage of Wade with his plumbing issues. There are definitely problems, but they might be going beyond what is actually necessary to fix the problem
It wasn't his point though, it was a question he answered first and he got it wrong, he only realized the correct answer after Wade also got it wrong. Bob at no point said he was going to give any points for that (he even joked that it would be a negative point before making the comment about Mark winning too much). As far as the pity chuckle point, Bob is the host, Bob gave him that point so it is a valid point. Points are whatever the host gives, nothing more, nothing less, and aren't required to follow any other rules.
mark is right about solar panels. thats exactly how they work if they are installed CORRECTLY. you can be off-grid. but power companies literally STEAL your solar panel electricity. you can entirely be off the grid but many cities made it "illegal" which is sickening.
This is such a beautiful demonstration of why the current education system has failed. When the study portion is presented as a question, the path to the answer gets tangled and there is no straight shot from question to answer because the thought process to get there needs to occur. Once you get to the right answer, youve got too much in between it and the question to be able to get there again. I always complained at teachers who forced us to "figure it out" instead of just teaching the material right the first time haha, its so much easier to remember when the only information related to the question is the answer.
Your issue is you lack the tools to critically think. Everything in life is a question, and few if anyone has the answer. That is the nature of life It is our job to learn how to think critically. To navigate the process from question to answer The power of observation, rationality, and empiricism is what drives progress. All of which are the components of critical thinking
@@grooben8412 @grooben8412 those are all things that should be taught in principal, not while focusing on learning a specific information set. As someone who has dehibilitating ocd which at its cellular level is the brain making incorrect pathways between thoughts, the more bullshit between me and the answer means i am less efficient at remembering it in the future. Sure, critical thinking and figuring it out is extremely important, but it is NOT helpful for remembering. Schools dont test for learning, they test for remembering.
@@Sc3n3Qu33n That’s certainly true, In that regard you are correct. I realize my initial statement came out more aggressive than I would have liked. I’d like to apologize for that. Memory is something that is tested for, and while that is good in moderation, it is bad how often it is tested for. I have never struggled with memory so this is something I cannot related to. But I know many who do Thank you for this insight
bratwurst isnt a bavarian thing (thats weißwurst) and the rest of germany is everywhere between annoyed and disgusted by bavarian music (and culture)... just a hint for the editors- its offensive af.
One of my favorite episodes. The moment they realise Bob's trick is so good.
I think Bob overall is my favorite on the podcast

This episode is the only reason why I know about the treaty of Westphalia
I’m surprised I actually knew that question first try. Thank you Highschool European history!
Oh my god I have not laughed so hard in ages. The switch up of going back around truly got me and I also didn’t remember a dang thing oh my god
The psychological torture episode of distractible
27:42 for the start of the quiz
41:17 is where the real fun starts 😂
Wade's been holding onto a comeback like this for YEARS since Prop Hunt and Uno
Something about the treaty of West failure
Westphalia
This whole episode is a West failure 😂
It immediately became twice as funny when Wade said he was a physics major
This is in my top 3 favorite episodes
what are the other 2?
This episode really showed off Bob's growth throughout the podcast. From being upset over redoing a topic to mentally tormenting his friends with 20 EASY Question! It's definitely up there with Bob's Fridge levels of memorable.
I love how bob thought this was gonna be terrible but it wasn’t
I usually love their episodes and have fun. But, Wade saying “Treaty of Beowulf” legit made me cramp my stomach laughing
This is one of the few episodes that made me cry laughing
Entertainment, ENTERTAINMENT!! WHAT DO I FIND ENTERTAINING?!?!
So happy to watch this again! Gawd i love you guys!
God, I've never wished I was a teacher harder than right now, just so I could pull that trick XD It's so simple, but brilliant!
50:16
This whole part here on is my favorite 😂
Just when I thought nothing could beat Bob's Fridge as my fav episode, 20 easy questions came out. Love you guys.
51:10 the Eef is spreading
40:28 americanium, the element of freedom
You say that but Americium is one of the elements.

genuinely one of the best episodes ever😭😭
Bob's 3rd best episode!
I’m not a plumber, but I will say that it almost sounds like they are taking advantage of Wade with his plumbing issues. There are definitely problems, but they might be going beyond what is actually necessary to fix the problem
This is one of my favorites 🤣
This one was sooooo good
The mania in this episode was good stuuf
This was the greatest episode.
Wade's laugh gives me life 🤣
wait a minute!! it should be a tie right? because bob didn't give mark one of his points because he was winning too many
Mark should have won this one for real. Bob also gave Wade a pity point and then took away Mark's point lol
It wasn't his point though, it was a question he answered first and he got it wrong, he only realized the correct answer after Wade also got it wrong. Bob at no point said he was going to give any points for that (he even joked that it would be a negative point before making the comment about Mark winning too much).

@@moniquebear4544 ah right, i missed that, i thought bob just felt bad for wade lol
mark is right about solar panels. thats exactly how they work if they are installed CORRECTLY. you can be off-grid. but power companies literally STEAL your solar panel electricity. you can entirely be off the grid but many cities made it "illegal" which is sickening.
Yeah, anything to fuck over the average people.
The topic on internet speed: RIP Net Neutrality

IDK HOW BUYT I GOT QING DYNASTY CORRECT BRO I PAID ATTENTION IN WORLD HISTORY
i dont think the number of questions is 20, also maybe im wrong but im writing their points its 19-15 for wade
3:43 4:19
I’ve never noticed til now how much Wade makes the “comrade” joke 😂😂 is he hiding something 🤔👀
It is very scary to me that none of these three men know what a hymen is, let alone Hadrian's wall.

"Brat" is not the part that means sausage. That would be "wurst".
