This took a bit to make cause there were so many good bits, and the original episode is over 40 minutes long. I highly suggest subscribing to DropoutTV if you haven’t already, I’ve left out so much from this video, including an entire mini game.
You decided to leave out the shot of Brennans Soul visibly slowly shriveling up as Oscar wins the 2nd edition Lord of the Rings books to the statement of 'never red it!'? 😄 Great work on the vid 😊
They figured out how to combine Brennan losing with a meta-system that defeats the purpose of winning and losing, forcing Brennan to try to lose, and win without feeling like he deserved it. The perfect Brennan irritant. Glorious.
Last time Sam created a game where Brennan literally couldn't win. And when we all thought that couldn't be topped, Sam created a game where Brennan can't win on a spiritual level... Sam is the one guy who will always be one step ahaed of Brennan it feels. Diabolical 😄
@@DarkHarlequin don't forget the game where Brennan had to work with everyone in order to win the game (not the college humor skit the game changer jeopardy one ).
Forcing Brennan to try to lose didn't work, his moral stance was to just try his hardest anyway. He won by complete happenstance, and it infuriated him.
Rather reminiscent of Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality Ch. 33 Working in Groups, Coordination Problems Where Professor Quirrell has divided all the first years into three Armies and they play mock battles on the Quidditch Pitch and Ravenclaw!Harry introduces the concept of Traitors to the tournament and each of the three generals' armies, Harry, Hermione, and Draco collapse into absolute chaos as all of their lieutenants and soldiers plot with and against each other in every possible permutation leading to the final outcome being death by suicide for a tie breaker under a false flag Creating a situation where a triple agent betrayed all three armies to an outside influencer now becoming a quadruple agent Which was only made possible and kept perfectly organized and planned in advance by a beyond outside influencer thus making Blaise Zabini a Quintuple Agent The author was specifically stated they wanted to write something more complicated than Death Note.
Maybe I'm dyslexic. Maybe it's because I just did a round of wake and bake. But I swear to god my first pass of this comment, I thought it said "only to realize it was full of syphilis."
I just realized... Oscar enthusiastically smiled and waved when he walked in, and Ally flatly said the set wasn't up to code. By shouting with excitement through a bite of the banana he brought out with him, Brennan effectively had the most mid entrance.
The mental panic that ran across Brennan's face as he realized that Ally outsmarted him on the first question had me straight up cackling 🤣 "No, wait..." **thinking** "Fuck, is that actually the game??!"
the beginning of Brennan's monologue at the end makes me deeply desire for him to host a children's program like on pbs or something along those lines, he's able to carry some real mr rogers energy when he speaks in earnest,hope that makes sense
he has (and probably occasionally still does) worked at a LARP camp for kids! and from the stories he’s told he seems to enjoy working with kids a lot :))
@@Jedi_Vigilante I freaking love it when Thor, Goblin Lord and Furret Hero, gets recognition. He's such a great creator on here and seems like a stand up guy. He was on a HealthyGamerGG stream, talking about motivation for his community. I'd recommend that channel if you haven't already seen it, too. It's soo nice to see the cross-over of fans of cool dudes on the internet doing geeky stuff.
@@axelmaldonado2642 Sheer power of they/them swag **in an environment that supports them doing so**. Sam Reich has used the privilege he has to construct this wonderful environment where his favourite people can be themselves. I have no doubt Ally wouldn't have their confidence in many places of the world because of how the world in general is intolerant of people who are different. I commend Ally for their confidence but also Sam for allowing them the ability to be confident.
The combined joke Sam and Ally make about the Build a Bridge project in school felt like a personal attack against me lol. I made a bridge that held 657lbs…. Second place was 82lbs….
We did this too. Never did find out how much weight it could hold. We started stacking random shit and then someone accidentally knocked it over. We got up to all the weights, all the textbooks we had a couple laptops and bags and then someone toppled the tower. Anyway probably should have switched from education to engineering then lol
We made boats out of polystyrene with batteries and a small engines at my school. We raced them at the end of the project, and mine absolutely crushed the other teams. It's been years, but I think mine went almost twice as fast as the next one, and the rest weren't even close.
@@NoThankUBeQuietReminds me of my sister and her friend doing the “egg drop” project. They just built a house. If it’s good enough for Dorothy, it’s good enough for physics class. The teacher’s egg didn’t survive the drop. Almost none of the class’s eggs survived the drop. The house successfully protected the egg, and the teacher was genuinely mad that he had to give them full marks for having the most successful construct in the class. Then he threw it in the garbage. (The egg survived.)
Missing my favorite bit. They all have to venmo katie marovich an amount of money. Brennan gave her 20 dollars for pizza money he owed her, then another 30. Realized ally and Oscar gave almost double that and sent her another 95 dollars after the round ended with the note "I am ashamed."
*45. Yes, I left out that bit. I loved it, but honestly this was already getting too long. Plus, gotta give the people some reason to subscribe to Dropout ;P
@@LeakyTrees yess, i love it that we collectively want people to subscribe even if it's not paid advertising lol, it's just that good and i genuinely want dropout to continue to grow!
This episode demonstrates that Brennan is not actually “competitive” unless you count competition with himself. It’s not winning that he cares about, it’s giving 100% to everything all the time. Most people aren’t doing that though so he looks super competitive.
yeah exactly, which is what i relate to so hard haha. it's not that my goal is to win, it's to give it my best and know that if i do win, it's because i gave it my all and so it's satisfying :D
Ally and Oscar were on the exact same wavelength and both just had the same thought of "Let's make Brennan 'win'" and trusted the other that their bets would sync up. You can't convince me otherwise.
Maybe I cry to easily but "Your best effort is all that anyone is asking for" made me tear up. Huge dad energy, yes my father is no long with us, no I don't wanna talk about anything.
The part that got me the most is honestly that the cast felt able to literally pick up Sam. Every time I watch a Game Changer, or a Make Some Noise, or an episode of a different show where Sam is instead one of the cast/contestants, I think about the fact that he is literally the CEO. He's their boss. He, in fact, is the boss of everyone in that room. And I think about how the culture of Dropout is such that the cast is so comfortable that they, unscripted and undiscussed, bodily picked up and restrained their boss.
I find it genuinely hysterical that Brennan's first sentence in this episode was "SO EXCITED TO BE HERE!" and then he proceeded to have the second worst time of his life
@@headhunter1958I personally wish I had the sort of probable type of encouragement and energy that they seem to be able to foster, I think that's what they meant
This cements the absolute conviction that Sam and Brennan are in fact best friends. You can't fuck with someone this effectively without being their closest person.
Brennan's slow decline from moral high ground to actually competing for points this game was a highlight for me :) Winning on top of it for being second was the cherry on top!
I think if he hadn't accidentally gotten points on the balloon task, he would have kept trying for zero, but as soon as he had points on the board he couldn't stop himself from actually competing.
He protested loudly for the bit I think, but deep down he couldn't help but accept that it actually requires skill and mindgames to properly come second and got embroiled in that, and I love that for him. My favorite move is the curveball with the Trump impression, using Oscar's comedic instinct against him so Oscar would want to continue the trend of making a worse impression, thus having Brennan's own impression come second.
I feel like I watched a man unravel for the whole episode but the fact he also references past episodes that pulled the same shit on him makes it infinitely more funny
lmao I just love how the end speech has the same vibe as mr rodgers singing "it's a beautiful day in the neighborhood" but for adults in a capitalistic society and i think that's beautiful
Man I SO missed the dynamic of Sam giving Brennan free reign... but at the same time pulling all his strings and the whole chaos of Game Changer 💕😁 There is a quote from 'The traitor Baruh Cormorant' books going "The one with the true power is not the one who can make choices, but the one who creates the conditions under which choices are being made!" I think Game Changer is the perfect illustration of this 😋
"People think they make choices - they think they're gonna steer right or left... they didn't build the roads." I believe this was The Unsleeping City campaign from D20 😊
“There is nothing wrong with second place. Your best effort is all that anyone is asking for...” Brennan really had me getting emotional. Then his deconstruction of the system brought it back to comedy. Thank you, Brennan, for all of the feelings!
There's no need to have strong feelings. There is only one answer worth consideration. You stand on the right. You walk on the left. If the escalator is too narrow for two lanes, you just stand.
I love that every episode of Game Changer that features Brennan as a contestant comes down to, "How deeply can we fuck with Brennan on a personal level?"
Brennan’s immediate amused indignation at Ally’s “Donald Trump doing Ed Sullivan” impersonation is probably the moment that convinced me to pay for a Dropout subscription
When I first watched this I had to pause on Brennan holding Oscar just to stop and think about how there two people role played one of the most loving relationships I’ve ever seen put to screen. And now Brennan is hugging Oscar’s ankles like a toddler who doesn’t want to go to the park. Wild. Get Dropout, it is worth it!
I wanna see Brennan on taskmaster. I feel like he intentionally misinterpreted some questions and I don't just mean this episode Edit: this is American taskmaster
i love brennan standing on the podium knowing that everyone wants an angry rant but he figures out he can snatch back agency for himself and claim a moral victory by going wholesome instead 😆
9:50 Brennan had the last laugh in the end; his commitment to winning may have earned him the win, but his monologue afterwards earned him the moral high ground.
It was mentioned in the Behind the Scenes that originally they had three real pies, but forgot that Ally had celiac and couldn't have wheat/gluten. So they real quick remade them without any crusts. The pies in the episode are cream and pie filling, we just never saw the pie filling underneath.
The final monologue is, of course, fantastic, but my favourite part has to be the dancing challenge. Just, Brennan glomping on to Oscar, and Oscar continuing to do his best to do _some_ sort of dance - the whole thing absolutely sends me xD
The fact that this is another episode basically designed exclusively to fuck with Brennan and he fully mind broke twice in the first question really speaks to Sam's development as a real life Jigsaw/Riddler.
I'm not even joking when I say that Brennan in this episode genuinely inspired me to try harder in all aspects of my life. A bizarre fucked up clown festival indeed Mr Mulligan
whats amazing about the whole episode being about being second best, is that by knowing Brennan would be trying his best no matter what, and would eventually be outdone some times, he would innevitably win this episode. It was all planned from the start.
The whole channel in quintessential concept is one giant improvised gag. The gift of great improv comedians is that they ride waves of chaos with smooth go with the flow grace that they seem more organized and harmonized than actual scripted content which can never plan for all eventualities. There is no plan at all, except that the plan was before the lights came on they all swear to be ready for anything and make it work.

I just love how Brennan was like "im going to try and win every game the correct way" and still ended up coming second and "winning".
3:05 is the moment he became Plug, from Plugs Butt Ugly Stuff Hut 😂
amazing when new brennan lore comes out the whole site becomes flooded with the clips and I must watch them all
THE WAY SAM CACKLES AS BRENNAN SAYS THE WORD DEVILRY IS GENUINELY HILARIOUS
"Im gonna lose so fucking hard"
Oops
This may be the funniest thing I have ever seen. I wish I could afford dropout! Thanks for posting it.
"Winning makes me feel really sad" 😂
Anytime Brennan starts to give a speech I'm at the edge of my seat. The man knows how to turn a phrase and how to make anything eloquent!
"Winning makes you feel really sad" is Brennan's life story
Brennan’s little “no wait” kills me each time.
whats amazing about the whole episode being about being second best, is that by knowing Brennan would be trying his best no matter what, and would eventually be outdone some times, he would innevitably win this episode. It was all planned from the start.
It very much wasn’t planned from the start for Brennan to win, but it was a happy lil accident
The whole channel in quintessential concept is one giant improvised gag.
The gift of great improv comedians is that they ride waves of chaos with smooth go with the flow grace that they seem more organized and harmonized than actual scripted content which can never plan for all eventualities.
There is no plan at all, except that the plan was before the lights came on they all swear to be ready for anything and make it work.
Me watching Brennan shuck a pie like an oyster: Boy, I hope this doesn't awaken anything in me
The way I actually kinda cried a lil at his speech at the end 🥲🥲🥲
The look on Brennans face when Ally answered the gong question lol. Should have been accepted
brennan is the perfect human
Just reacting to the title: Even his last name Mulligan is often used to refer to a do over.
Saw the thumbnail whiile actively eating a banana so obviously I clicked
@@dionysianmystery good.
9:53 this feels like a insurance commercial
I love how much everyone loves each other on this show
This is like watching chinese water torture. This man is slowly going insane!
