Pull down the description for links to Alec, Sally, and Arun's channels! In hindsight I should have probably called this "Heat 2", because we're working towards a Grand Final...
Tom Scott Really? Canât wait
A Tom Scott comment that isnât 1 month old? Impossible
Mate I love this show, keep it up!
12:59 Why is Sally on 1 bar?
Wait, there is a Grand Final? I was just joking when I said there would be one.
(...in another comment that probably nobody saw)
"I'm an economist, I know nothing"
Best quote ever.
I'm studying economics and what a mood
I dont even know anything about Economics yikes
@@whalienreader1261 line go up okay, line go down good?
@@gam3rmom3nt3 line go straight, neutral
I have mideaval philosophy with people studding theology and those might be slightly worse.
why thank you
I was hoping Alec would play from his table, wearing his brown suit.
I'd have loved that đđ
You mean his dark orange suit? đ
@@crispoman
Orange with context suit.
Taste The Brownâą
I honestly didn't recognise him without his brown suit. But maybe that says more about me than him!
Seeing Alec not in his basement without his jacket is like seeing Tom without a red shirt.
Exactly!
Ye

@@nicolasgomez390 wat?
But Tom wears a blue and white suit!
[the winner] is seriously underplaying their channel here, it is *brilliant*
^
Love how you didnt spoil it. Massive kudos
Well, I'm 99% Sure I know who it is now, cause I too love that channel.
@@ChloeBxoxo Spoilers
Han Solo kills Spiderman in Half Blood Prince
Thanks for not spoiling it
This one's definitely going on my CV
If only they tested on smartphones i would figured you could pwn them
Poor Arun :(
You're an economist ,this does nothing.
Haha, nice seeing you on there.
Your voice and accent are the true winners!
Tom: Would you like Disney films or chemical elements?
Arun: I'll take Disney films
Alec: So you have chosen death.
My thoughts exactly, if I was to give a description of Alec it would be "A guy with a major in technology and how stuff works and a minor in Disney"
To be fair, the other option was likely this.
Arun: I'll take chemical elements.
Sally: So you have chosen death.
Literally what I thought.
+
Tactically, chemical elements is one where you're either going to be reasonably confident or have no clue and just have to hope your opponents don't know much about them either, while with Disney films, most people have partial coverage, but hardly anyone will know everything. So if you're not confident about either, Disney's the one to take a punt on, while if you're knowledgeable about both, the elements are probably a better bet.
We knew Alec had it. The channel isn't Technology DISconnections, after all.
Good one
Spoiler alert tho.
@@mohamadwaliyuddin1517 Who the fart reads the comments before watching the video? Doofs? Scrumps? They who ride the Dunderbus?
I read that in Alec's voice
@@Archgeek0 well I did :p
I feel like in this game, if you know the correct answer with 100% certainty, you should try to sound as unsure as possible.
I dunno about that @QuotePilgrim
@@frankthefkintank If you know the correct answer with 100% certainty, you *cannot* lose a bar. If you deliberately sound unsure, you could fool someone into challenging, and then *they* would lose a bar.
Ah yes, "Tom Scott Invites My CZcams Subscription List to a Quizz" episode 2
On the other hand, I only know Arun, aka Mrwhosetheboss
stillFLiP I knew all of them except for Ellen
@@miaclarkwebb So...two of them?
I know Jaiden, Hank and Alec. I wonder who's gonna be next!
@@Blade.5786 there have been 2 episodes, hence "from the 6"
Tom Scott and Technology Connections are a pair I never thought to see! Excellent work as always
Yet they work together so well.
I'd love to see them working together also
A collab that was long overdue!
Knowing that there must be some correlation between being incredibly articulate, having a well honed dry wit, and having a broad knowledge base my money was behind Alec from the outset.
(I look forward to checking out Sally and Arun now as well).
Some of my favorite you tubers
"Would you like Feelings or Famous Americans?" - that sort of question that my mind asks me everyday
In my experience it's best to avoid the feelings.
Everytime you open twitter
I was rooting for Alec the whole show. His channel deserves more exposure, content is consistently top notch and he's humble enough to put a blooper reel at the end of every episode.
I agreeđ
Alec is being humble; Technology Connections taught me so much about consumer media formats that I wouldnât know where else to start.
Techmoan is another great channel for media formats.
@@SlyPearTree techmoan is more for obscure music formats (usually), where technology connections explains more on common ones.
+
That channel is like a warm blanket and a cup of cocoa for me.
Im watching this on an 8 track thanks to him
I almost didn't recognize Alec without his jacket
It's because it has *B R O W N*
Taste the BROWNâą
@@itskdog Ok that sounds more like Regular Car Reviews
That Pioneer LaserAction t-shirt made it easy for me.
almost indistinguishable from aging wheels
Seeing Alec without his brown suit is like seeing your teacher at the grocery store
Alec and Sally saying âItâs nice to be up here!â and Arun just being like *âIâm slightly scared of heights.â* made me crack up for no good reason lmao
Colored text to indicate different people speaking is a great idea. (I didn't even know that was possible in CZcams.)
Edit: Credit goes to Caption+ for the captions.
Glad to see such quick notice!
- Jacob @ Caption+
God bless whoever did those.
BBC iPlayer does that
@@hgwsavage is correct. Tom's got a keen eye for captions and asked for BBC-style ones for this series. It's good for us to be able to bring it to CZcams!
@@jsmaps well done Caption+! Have you ever done another Tom Scott video or something as I swear I have seen Caption+ by JS* show up before on other videos.
No, THIS is the greatest crossover in history.
That's what I thought during the last episode also. Tom keeps surprising us
@@julian-xy7gh Tom is a very intelligent fellow who knows how to work with data. It would hardly be surprising to me if the contestants are grouped according to YT statistics Tom got hold of, so that each episode maximizes its bait... er... potential audience - namely, I'm guessing that you are more likely to be subscribed to only one of the contestants in each episode, than not.
@@IHateUniqueUsernames in other word's, he's maximising YT thumbnail clickability.
Not clickability, but the audience that would be interested.
That's not Alec from Technology Connections. That's Alec from Technology Connextras
We've been backstabbed!
@@brrrrrr bamboozled even!
Welcome to an unscriped segment
5:35 When Alec raised his hand I immediately knew that Arun's answer was wrong. You do NOT mess with a Disney nerd.
I'd love to see a "Disney Trivia Challenge" with Alec and Jenny Nicholson (You Tube movie commentator, Disney nerd, and also with a level 12 dry wit).
"You do NOT mess with a Disney nerd."
This is so tryhard and pathetic.
@@BlackIndigenousPosse Have you watched sideways tho?
@@cjc363636 that would be an amazing crossover.
Mumbo Jumbo's ads are nice, Internet Historian's ads are funny, Tom Scott's ads are a whole fun video within themselves for fans of Tom Scott
the question I have is who is going to buy a setup like that outside of TV productions and maybe CZcams (for there CZcams studio spaces). it is a bit overkill for your average user.
the techniek is very interesting don't get me wrong but it might be a bit expensive to use for home use.
And Gray's ads involve bullying a tablet
@@sirBrouwer You don't buy a setup like that. You rent it.
@@strangejune still the question would remain. for who would a setup like that be interesting. Even renting I don't think that the equipment and the people needed will go for cheap. I can see a big time TV network buy or rent a setup or even multiple if that is possible.
For CZcams i think that the setup might be to much (if not sponsored like in this case).
@@sirBrouwer indie filmmakers for one (big studios ofc too, but that's covered not the point). sometimes if the greenscreen effect which is being made is too complex, the price of this setup might drop well below the required human work hours of editors.
basically if you already have a professional team, swapping human hours with rented technology might very well be worth it
Tom Scott and Technology Connections, the crossover I ALWAYS wanted
I was thinking exactly this
Why not Tom Scott and Joe Scott?
Holy crap, our profile pictures are almost the same.
@@Isaacfess I'm you, but with more chromosomes
+
A TechConnections and Tom Scott crossover is something that I didnât realize I wanted as much as I did until now, and now I demand more, because you two cover topics that are just similar enough that Iâd love to see what random things you guys could find together...but also, I love this show, the concept and way itâs done is very cool, and I look forwards to seeing more!
+
Amen! Two of the best channels on CZcams for sure!
đâ
Seriously, collab, please?
We've had a Tom Scott x Ashens crossover already, I'm sure it won't be long!
Bluffing about Disney when Disney superfan Technology connections is on was a bold move
Right? I immediately knew that Alec was going to know to challenge him on it.
I think it's dishonest to call what was clearly a blind guess "a bluff"; unless the game strictly considers a 'bluff' as "I don't know the correct answer, but I'm not going to admit that."
At 12:58 Sally's bars have gone down to one, then go up again before having one taken away. I thought I'd gone mad but it actually did that haha
I love this gameshow!
Oooh continuity error!
Oh, dang it! Sorry Tom
I was looking for someone to have mentioned it. But I am curious because I cannot really see how that would happen.
Michelle Martin You are a great editor. Very good work. These videos are great. Please may you tell Tom to do more (with your fantastic editing involved as well).
I knew Alec would win this one. The madman is overflowing with knowledge
His power is combined with the color of brown
@@loop5720 *orange with context
Heâs humble. And made informed guesses.
@@loop5720 and dad jokes

I have the perfect name for this show: CZcamsrs, What Do They Know?, Do They Know Things?, Let's Find Out
Or YWDTKDTKTLFO
What is this, a cross over episode?
Tom has managed to surprise me with the guests twice now.
Iâm genuinely enjoying the ads for the set, because itâs cool and I want to know about it ;)
Absolutely, I'm probably never going to use it, but it is quite a cool piece of kit!
"I'm an economist, I know nothing" - Arun, 2020
*looks at list of person of the year*
*Looks at 1938, 1939, and 1940*
âOh noâ
What did Winston Churchill do?
@@nabeelnitro6447
Ohh.. Uhh.. Well....... If you don't look it up you don't have to think bad of Winston Churchill!
Remember, the person of the year is more so the most influential, not the best.
Goes to check out Alec's channel:
* realizes that its the dude who made the Colour Brown Video*: WAIT A SECON-
Video says color
@@HoneyMike irrelevant
"I guess im famous for toasters now"
Im dying.
Edit: thanks for 1 like i guess
Toaster boi wins!
I mean, I recc'ed exactly that toaster video to a friend, though iirc it was the streetlight one that I found him through and hooked me.
feha92 could you put the link here for me please. I have seen Tom Scottâs toaster video but I havenât seen the other one.
@@feha92 same I found him thru portable air cons but the toaster video was just too fascinating and weird
(Spoilers)
The economist is eliminated right before a question about currency
Is that him?
*Sees the laser disc T-shirt*
That's definitely him.
"Technology Connections" is one of the latest channel discoveries of mine and I loved it. I don't know how on earth it was came to my feed but I was watched that "VHS vs Beta" topic and fell into his fun, explanatory and very informative narration. I'm surprised to see him here.
Welcome to the club and have fun finding the sneaky puns.
It happens that I know exactly where I got Technology Connections - it was the same place I got Doug DeMuro: I was thinking about buying a Chevy Bolt a couple years ago.
Technology Connections is definitely one of my favorite channels on the video. Practically every single video I watched of his has been interesting in some way and the presentation is always well done.
@@baylinkdashyt Same, and I also get Aging Wheels at the same time and they did colab. CZcams algorithm is weird.
I found him through the disposable DVD video that blew up quite a bit, thanks in part to Hank Green
Technology Connections!! Yes! Love that guy
I was half expecting the Technology Connection end card music to play at the end
Me too
Great now I'm gonna have to hum it all day long, thanks.
*dissapointingly absent smooth jazz*
^
And some bloopers.
I have been watching Alec for years now. Such a goofy personality that I love.
Plot twist: Tom's shirt is actually a green screen shirt
WELL YES BUT NO
Itâs not a green screen though
This video wasn't recorded with a greenscreeen. If you watched the video you'd know that.
theLMGN werenât
@@Number1tnfan683 wasn't
tom pronounced algiophobic as agliophobic - that would make it a fear of garlic instead of pain
It threw me off too ^^
Rightly or wrongly (in terms of etymology), Agliophobia is the most common spelling, but Algophobia and Algiophobia are also used.
I was thinking of spaghetti aglio e olio during that question, and wondering if the feeling had anything to do with the pungency of garlic.
Me, as well. Had I been a contestant, I would have asked for the spelling.
Thank you! I thought I was mad for a moment there xD
'"we're trusting his gut over every other country"
ahh but his gut is treated to the perfect toast every day... I'd trust it
I wanna see one of these with Chris, Gary and Matt.
this format is kind of close to two of these people are lying
The greatest crossover in youtube history
Fingering Things âïž đ
Aaayđđ»đđ»
This is Tom Scott/Technology Connections crossover we never knew we needed
"Disconnected" aye? I see you're still bitter about losing in Only Connect
Tomâs back is still damaged from carrying his team on that show.
Everything he's done on CZcams has just been compensation for that one failure.
@@vigilantcosmicpenguin8721 Now that you mention it, I thought that video of him spitting on and whispering insults to a cardboard cut-out of Victoria Coren Mitchell was a bit left of field. But now it makes sense
@@JackDevaney there's a video???of that??
@@yeetusfetus8687 you can only see it if you truly believe in it
I love how even the ads on Tom Scott's channel are genuinely interesting.
I think you should get the technical difficulties on the show
Oh yes
there might be some... technical difficulties doing that! badum sss
A little disappointed by Alec's lack of jacket\blazer
Dat shirt doe
Impressive backslash, there.
Are we even sure it was him?
6:50
Sally: "Guanine is an amino acid"
well actually it's a nucleic acid :P
I know, I know, I told Tom I made a mistake straight after filming, but I have no way to correct what I said so deal with it.
Itâs not a nucleic acid - itâs a nucleobase!
Its a nitrogenous base.... smh
I don't know any of this because this is the kind of thing they never taught when I was in school.
Dang ol southern education failing me again
@@arandomguy3526 It's made of nitrogen yes but we're talking about biological function and guanine is a nucleobase biologically speaking.
I don't understand why no one challenged stickiness given that it's, um, not a feeling (it's a sensation). A real decimeter moment.
Alec & Sally : we're in this to win this
Arun : I'm just happy to be here :)
i wouldnt mind if they had 5 bars of signal, and the quiz was a bit longer!
There may be time constraints, as they're keeping the shows to around 20-25 minutes in length. Otherwise, I'd LOVE five bars.
Whoever worked on the captions absolutely deserves a raise. Best captioning i've ever seen on CZcams, period.
Tom: Sally, would you like veggies or pro sports?
Sally: Veggies
Tom: What veggie is the main ingredient in football?
What sports ball is in sauerkraut?
So happy to see Alec here. Along with Tom's channel, Technology Connections is one of my absolute favorite CZcams channels.
^
Tom, I love this type of content. It's a nice crossover with other CZcamsrs.
I was really hoping one of them would have mentioned the 1938 Time winner.
Can't believe you managed to get Alec on, he's a geezer.
My favourite by Alec is the traffic lights video đ
Seeing Sally, Alec and Tom in a Video together.
A dream come true.
I'm surprised that Alec is in this episode!! Excited for the grand finale!
so THAT's why it's SUPER CLEAR IT'S A DISPLAY behind him on close shots...
This video has the best closed captions I've seen on CZcams yet.
I wanna see technology connections fight techmoan
i see nussing
The crossover we all need!
13:06 Correction, the Panamanian Balboa is pegged with the US Dollar but not named a Dollar of course, however Panama does also use the US Dollar as legal tender.
P.S. Was sort of hoping for either to mention the Netherlands here, the US Dollar is sole legal tender in Bonaire, Sint Eustatius and Saba, which are fully incorporated parts of the Netherlands.
I was also hoping someone would have said Zimbabwe to see if that would have counted.
I would have said "Taiwan" but I'm not sure if that's recognised by the UN..
@@Prism019 It's very much not. Even "Taiwan" does not recognize Taiwan. "Taiwan" of course being the Republic of China.
@@Quintinohthree which is equally not recognised by the UN!
@@stephenpalmer9375 Which the UN recognizes is in fact what I said.
I could get used to having a Tom Scott video as a commercial break.
Everyone: it's time we stopped paying people with exposure!
Tom Scott: hold my tablet.
Some of my favorite CZcamsrs as contestants. this show also makes me anxious even though I'm not competing
More great youtubers I never expected to see together Tom really knows some interesting people
What I love about this new show is that I'm seeing my fav youtubers from different genres at one place. With modern day collabs, sometimes we see similar content creators in one place, but these combinations really selling it to me. Thanks for the treat!
The most wholesome episode of Black Mirror Iâve seen
I was kind of excited for the lasers :(
Huh I've been watching Technology Connections for years and only just found out he's called Alec.
I don't think I've seen him say his name in his videos. I learned his name from some of his collabs, like with Aging Wheels.
These are great! Itâs awesome that Tom Scott is using his platform to push other channels. Especially Alecâs, one of my favorites!!!
Tom's the only person who can make an advert interesting enough to actually watch and informative as well đđ»
I feel like starting my career as a youtuber for the sole purpose of participating in this contest.
YAY! Two of my favourite youtubers (well, three when counting you, Tom) - never even heard of "mrwhosetheboss" though, so let's see!
Bruh i only know whosetheboss tf
@@viktorminchev7095 me too
I knew Technolgy Connections and Mrwhosetheboss
@@viktorminchev7095 Same aswell.
@@viktorminchev7095 well, looking at whosetheboss's channel, at least now I know WHY I never heard of him. It's videos about smartphones, smartphones and MORE smartphones. A topic that I couldn't care less about ;-)
I love the fact that the ad is almost just as interesting as the rest of the video
Wow so happy to see Alec and Arun
This was so entertaining! I love that the subtitles are color coded to their boxes too.
So happy that Alec won,
Technology Connections is such a great channel,
Alec and Sally are two of my favorite CZcamsrs. That was too much fun!
Love it when Sally just says: BALLS!!
wow this game show needs to be picked up by a big producer, truly enjoyed the format!
Started watching this, then 30 seconds in I got âdisconnectedâ from the internet
Perhaps Alec can *Connect* you with some *Technology*
Just like the simulations.
Thank you so much for increasing the amount of videos you put up. It really helps during these stressful times
I'm so happy Alec won!!! His channel is one my my favorite things on CZcams! I was holding my breath for each question!
Please make this regularly scheduled programming! I need Alec of Technology Connections to be the Ken Jennings of this gameshow.
I was rooting for Alec the whole way through! Love Technology Connections!
Was here because of Alec! Technology Connections is such a great channel! And is so lovely to see it here! Nice crossover!
I LOVE Technology Connections, I was so happy to see Alec was on the show! Great episode!
I came here for Alec and was not disappointed.
You can't DISCONNECT a guy who CONNECTS TECHNOLOGY AMARYT? HAHAHAHA
okay I'll show myself out the door.
I had the exact same thought ;-)
I love this show and I'm so happy to see Alec of Technology Connections take part.
Two of my favourite youtubers, Alec and Sally. Definitely a great episode!
When the COVID-19 pandemic end please make another DISCONNECTED like game show but at the top of real tower
You are disconnected..... from your safety harness! **pushes loser off the tower**
With a zip line!
I was going to add "that dumps the loser into a pool of mud" but thought better.
TECHNOLOGY CONNECTIONS OH HOW I'VE LONGED FOR THIS DAY
And this, people, is why we have subscribed to Tom Scott.
Love seeing two of my favorite CZcams channels together, Tom Scott and Technology Connections
