Got so nostalgic... I've a close bond with my mum as she basically raised us on her own. I was born in early 80s so lots of Irish men went overseas at the time to work, dad included. He'd be gone for 6 months at a time. I remember as a baby my mom singing songs including how much is that doggy and reading me books as I'm legally blind. At Christmas, dad would be home. He'd chew the carrot to make me think rudolph ate it
my parents were divorced when i was 9, and my mother worked 70-80 hours a week cleaning homes and small businesses to keep our house and keep us fed. i am autistic and was quite a pain for my mother until i graduated in the late 1990s and went into the military. she's my hero, strongest human ive ever known.
the sibling style relationship they have is absolutely adorable. and it makes the show feel "comfortable" and "relatable." i find it incredibly endearing.
When I was involved in planning and running a not-for-profit trivia night we had the deal that anyone wanting to challenge an answer had to give a donation each time. It stopped many arguments and raised extra cash

That snow fact explains to me exactly why, when in Britain and it rains, the temperature drops several degrees; but in most regions in Australia when it rains, the temperature actually rises a couple of degrees. This has always puzzled me 🤔
how is nobody talking about how Sandi managed to pick out the only person in the entire audience that was already mic'd up? now that's a christmas miracle!!
31:20, pressure is why water is below the freezing point but still liquid. Phase of a substance (solid, liquid, gas) is dependent on both pressure and temperature. Using this, you can look up the phase diagram of a chemical and predict what phase that chemical will be in for any temp and pressure
this effect is where the "instant freezing" happens in a bottle of water that has been more widely documented since social media took off. when a bottle goes from liquid to slush in seconds.
@@ghomerhustto be fair this is one of the science concepts that is really fun to experience on a regular day. Have accidentally just made it happen with different drinks from beer to some sodas and it was always a treat. One of the few "virals" that I was happy to see in social media.
And amazingly how those whisky ice shaper works (the device where you put ice cubes and when clamped turns into a perfect sphere). Although, watching a japanese bartender carves an ice into a sphere is more interesting to watch.
Never heard of leaving out a carrot for a reindeer. We used to make "reindeer food" at school during xmas but it was just birdseed and glitter and you pour it in the garden for the "reindeer"
I love Sara’s outfit but do wonder if she got given a different dress code memo from the other guests. The guys are all in fairly simple Christmas T-shirts while’s she’s gone full Christmas-tree-glam. She looks fantastic
I used to be an excellent cup stacker. We all had to do it in gym class, and I was the best in my primary school. Only “sport” I ever excelled at, lol.
Johnny is right about Dumbo. Dumbo’s center of lift is far forward of their center of gravity. Even if the ears could generate enough lift, Dumbo would fly heels over head in backwards flips.
what're the odds i'd watch this TODAY - the day that i - for the first tme in my life - saw a baby morning dove!?? (it was about 3-4 inches tall by my guess - seeing it from 20 ft away) i was so excited i ran into the house to grab my phone to get a pic, but it was gone by the time i came back :( 100% true story :)
Sometimes Alan will say some ridiculous thing and I'll go, "Oh that's interesting that the British say it that way" until the whole cast looks at him in shock. 😂
That was my first thought on this episode. My mind wanted to make a MILF on the Shelf joke, sticking with the holiday theme, but then I hated myself for how creepy that sounded. Brains betray us.
AKA: a female on the show has a low cut dress. ooo, i must oogle and comment on it. you do realize that most women DONT like comments like this about them? they consider it "creepy"
Ok so on the elephant and mouse question. I don't know anything about science so can someone explain how if the mouse and the elephant have different mass (even if the difference is inconsequential compared to the Earth) they become weightless at the same time? I thought gravity was just to masses attracting each other, so if Earth is constant, their distance from Earth's center of mass is constant, then the thing that definitely different is their own mass, right?
I'm going purely off basic logic, I'm not an actual scientist and can't provide a definite answer. However my guess would be to view gravity's falling off in percentages. So as they rise into space gravity will have 1% less effect, then 2%, and on and on. And both the mouse and the elephant will reach 100% less gravity at exactly the same moment. So although at 99% the mouse and elephant's weight will be very different, they will both be affected by no gravity at the same moment.
Objects that exist have mass. They only have weight when gravity (g) is applied. Lack of g means they are weightless, therefore mass becomes irrelevant. Your error in logic was the constant distance from the Earth's gravitation influence. They are in space, so there is very little g from earth. Hope that helps.
gravity does not go away. weightlessness exists in free-fall. so imagine sky diving next to a mouse and an elephant without factoring in terminal velocity and everything falls at the same rate. now, if someone pushes the elephant, it would slowly start moving towards you while the person who shoved it would be moving away from the elephant faster than the elephant is moving towards you. also, if someone pushed the mouse towards you (all things being equal to the first situation...mass of person, strength of shove) the mouse would be travelling towards you much faster and the shovey person would be moving away from the original position of the mouse very slowly. however, the force of the mouse and the elephant hitting you is still just the amount of energy in the shove that started the animals' motion.
@@csjrogerson2377 the lack of weight vs the gravitational pull of earth is due to ORBIT. the moon is 225k miles from earth and is held in it's orbit by gravity. to not feel "gravity" from earth, when NOT in an orbit, just straight on, you'd have to be WAAAAAAAY farther out than the moon. inertia in orbit counteracts the effects of gravity when in that orbit. but the orbit is all that keeps you from actually succumbing to the gravitational pull.
About the mouse and elephant being weightless in space at the same time... Reaching space altitude (100km above earth surface) doesn't make you weightless. At all!!!. Gravity is almost the same as it is here. It's reaching orbit that makes you weightless. That means you move horizontally at a speed of 1 earth revolution in about 90 minutes.
technically there is no "weightlessness" location in our known universe. some celestial body will be exerting its gravity on you, even if it is infinitesimal. you have SOME weight to SOME planet or asteroid or star. mass equates to weight when floating in space.
@ghomerhust no, not really, they don't give a shit I worked with elephants they don't care. And I live in an agricultural state so there is no shortage of mice

Men are never lost they are merely exploring unknown territory.
That don't exist
That's why I like being gay, I just know how it works.
We prefer “taking the scenic route”.
Other people scare me and when I ask for directions I immediately forget what they said. Thank goodness for map apps.
Men are never lost. Just temporarily unsure of their position.
A man is never lost. He's merely exploring.

So that night he decided that enough was enough
And he knew that now he had to had to play rough
So he grabbed santas shotgun without a fuss
He snuck into their room
He shot Santa in the head
Mrs Claus screamed and in a second she was dead
He marched down to the stables
his fur covered in red
And as Vixen slept he chopped off his head
He saw dancer and prancer tucked up in bed
and decided to turn the hay
blood red
So he shot and he shot the entire whole lot
until the elves woke up when they started feeling hot
It turns out Rudolph had burned down their plot
They yelled and they screamed until they were shot
Rudolph had a gleam that frighted the whole lot
He would trot and would trot with a smile on his face
As the elves would have a final family embrace
As they knew they were about to be shot in the face
