You guys should do an episode where brennan hosts and trap has to be a contestant
Would kill for mike to be a contestant
@@vincevvn He was a contestant in an episode hosted by Ify Nwadiwe! It’s part of the most recent season that’s exclusive to dropout

@@clem719 I relate to this comment sooooo much
Well, if you want this done then you should… GET IN THE COMMENTS!!
Erika; “I’m just here to have fun!” then proceeds to delete the competition
Victory is always fun.
Operating on 90s sports movie rules like all the time
Erika! What is fun in life?
To crush your enemies -- See them pointless before you, and to hear the lamentation of their fanbase!
I expected her to win.
She has fun deleting the competition. It checks out.
Um actually, Brennan Lee Mulligan is the reigning, "Miss Um Actually" Erika would need to defeat him in a trial by combat.
I'm pretty sure she knows how to use a sword so the odds are in her favor for sure

I was about to suggest an "Erika, Becca and Brendan Episode", but I think the amount of chaotic energy would destroy the galaxy
Um, actually, it's Brennan.
Erika, Becca, and Amy would be just be laughs and chaos
@@colinparry4126 my first thought when I saw your comment was damn this dudes a dick then I remembered what show this was
Worth it
I says still bring that episode
Erica with the most genuine "why you should read THE BOOK" moment. Earnest response
Zoo of Death is a great scene, really gives Fezzik some well-deserved time in the sun. Narrator is unreliable and delightful. Book doesn’t skip “the kissing parts.”
Erika is genuinly amazingly charismatic talking about Princess Bride and I will second their insistance on reading it.
It's an awesome story.
She's my go - to example when someone says that girls can't be nerds
Well the one time one person said that
The book is SO fun.
I had no idea either! It sounds so interesting and I love the movie!
Her reaction is what I love when you see someone absolutely geek out on their subject in a safe environment. Watching geeky/nerdy folk in the real world is what makes the whole "antisocial/bad at socialising" stereotype.
Take football/cricket/rugby/*insert sportsball game* or random celebrity/social gossip away from general conversation and most people would struggle to connect.
So if there's any geeky people out there who hide their passions - don't. Because your passion makes others' hearts cheer! ❤️
Funny how Erica was the least competitive in the beginning and she completely wiped the floor in this game 😂
My man Eme got floored for being too polite :( love ya man you won the gentleman prize.
"I just saw a monster! It looked like a cow hide floating on the water! Yeah, right by where we tan the cow hides!"
Its funny how i am chilean and had no idea that was a thing
When Becca melted onto the floor I laughed out loud
Umm Actually...
A grease fire CAN be tackled by a ABC Type Extinguisher, as the B type is the type specifically used ON grease fires. The K type extinguisher mentioned is an industrial grade extinguisher system used in restaurants and other large scale commercial food businesses.
Was about to say this. I took a fire safety course and the ABC fire extinguisher covers most home fires.
Yeah that "Um, Technically" was misinformation that could get someone hurt if they didn't double check. Not to mention that means Trapp and the guests were correct as they answered.
Yeah. A great trick is keep your box of baking soda nearby your stove while cooking. If your grease catches fire, dump it into the fire, it works almost instantly
Correct. The important thing is to NOT USE WATER.
Um actually A K type is for metal fires like aluminum or magnesium and would be not practical for a grease fire.
"enter the world, water world" has the same cadence as the Autozone jingle and I can't unhear it
Can we all collectively take a moment to appreciate Erika's undercut
Agree! She was really rocking that cut.
You gotta dig up that video where she first gets an undercut. It's on CZcams and it's awesome, Taliesin is the one giving it to her. The excitement in the room is tangible!
I'm always in a perpetual state of appreciation of Erika's undercut.
@@realism_logic That video is so good, I love that the only person who has tremor in the room is giving the haircut. Pure gold
I mean I take every moment with Erika in it to appreciate her she's on of my favorite people!
"The hogwarts express takes so long of course it leaves england"
Most brits watching this: "nah, our trains are just shit"

I just saw a Mock the Week compilation. It had 6 jokes on Southern Rail never, ever arriving anywhere.
Erika Ishii is such a delightful person. The energy they exude is simply electric
They?
@@osco4311 she uses all pronouns
@@osco4311they had been used as a singular pronoun over twice as long as the U.S has been a country
@@sylvernale it's a singular pronoun when the you don't know the subject's gender. Not when the subject thinks gender doesn't apply to them and demands to control the words other people use to describe them.
@@osco4311
Takes a special kind of person to learn someone has a pronoun preference and interpret that as a demand.
Erika being all about Princess Bride is the best thing ever
Anyone being that into anything is always lovely to watch... showing that level of passion is so engaging.
I would love to see a special LOTR episode of this where they have Stephen Colbert vs other LOTR lore buffs.
Who would dare challenge Stephen though?
Colbert + Brennan + Mercer dream team
So much energy in this one between Erika and Becca. Poor Eme though. He should have gotten the point for the monster.
I always love Erika's insane level of energy. Also yay, Dresden Files question for once! Shame it wasn't actually about Mouse but the monkey demons.
Omg right?! Dresden files is goated
@@purplewolfranger22 definitely, good to see becca has good taste in books
Becca's "What?" when she were told she was wrong about Dresden Files followed by long silence was perfect.
Eme was robbed on the fictionary round. He definitely mentioned that his monster was in water when he described it, and Trapp said El Cuero was aquatic. That should totally give him a point.
agreed, the guy has class, the host should have spared his honor.
Honestly that monster was just so out there that giving anyone credit for it would've felt like a pity point to me. But hard to judge which carries more shame :P
i agree i was like what...that was the closest
I disagree. They were all blind guesses and none of them got more than a single one of the several characteristic features of the leather monster.
I think the lack of pointage was justified.
Poor Eme. He seems like a cool dude, but it feels like he didn't get to have a good time. I'd like to see him come back and get another chance.
The girl on the right was kind of a lot, he seems so chill I think he got railroaded by his friend lol
It seems like he had fun overall but his own competitive nature was starting to get a little put out
Eme may not have gotten any points, but his jacket looks dope as hell
I hope to one day be as confident about anything as becca is about dresden files
It is the superior book! All bow before our great lord Dresden!
@@namesareirrelevant3496 oh I like dresden files, but that ultra swag she got on that question is a level of confidence I haven't hit yet
@@namesareirrelevant3496 “the building was on fire and it wasn’t my fault” what else could go wrong with a novel that starts like this and introduces mouse.
@@christianemden7637 blood rite right?
It's the last one I read now I gotta read dead beat
@@christianemden7637 Still my favorite opening line I've read
Sometimes I forget how competitive Becca is, then I watch her in literally anything and I am reminded.
Is it ok if I had a new crush from the moment of Erika's manic energy at being right about the Lego Batman Movie? O.o
Fun fact: Erika Ishii voices the new Apex Legend Valkyrie
I was so excited when I found that out
Awesome!
Gonna keep pitching this til we get it. Theme park trivia episode with Rocco Botte, Jenny Nicholson, and either Grant or someone who doesn’t suck.
So the third person would be Brennan Lee Milligan then. Lol
i can't tell is the implication that grant does or does not suck
Or jack patillo from roosterteeth
@@samlanier4312 “Grant Forgets he sucks/Hardly working”
all these episodes are re-uploads and over 2 years old. Do they even make new ones? CH is looking pretty dead atm
Gotta say, Um, Actually is my favorite game show besides Jeopardy.
And other things I'm too afraid to say in public
Try Quite Interesting or Would I lie to you.
Game Changer is just wild, they pulled it from youtube, but there are most episodes on piratebay
@@Necrowma Well, if we're going into British panel shows (which this is much more reminiscent of than classic American game shows), let's not neglect Taskmaster or Hypothetical.
So basically Um Actually! And Um Actually! In another format.
I wanna be as stoked about things as Erika is that she got the lego batman question correct
Uhm actually, it’s recommended to use a serious and level voice for dog commands. A high and excited voice is for bonding and reward rather than commanding.
I’ll also add “um actually, dogs are not a non-verbal species. While they tend to communicate through non-verbal body language, they commonly use their voice to communicate especially in the Spitz family like huskies which are exceptionally good at verbalizing.”
Um, actually, it's completely situational. If you're playing fetch or want them to come to you or follow you, you should sound excited and enthusiastic to make the activity sound way more fun than whatever other thing they were thinking of. If you need them to respond for basic obedience for stuff like "leave it" or "drop it", you should use an authoritative voice. Especially if it's a safety thing like dropping that piece of chocolate they snatched off the ground while on a walk when you shifted your attention away for one nanosecond.
Of course, it's not a golden rule for every dog and there are definitely exceptions.
@@canuckkat This may (emphasis on may) work on mostly untrained dogs. There's also the chance you will effectively slow their training. Dogs are pack animals that think exclusively in ranks, which is pretty typical for most canine species. You're either above or below them. You want to voice yourself as their leader, not their buddy, when training them. Once the ranks are established, you can be a buddy to them as much as you want. This is a major reason why so many dogs don't listen. They do whatever they want because they have never been taught their owner is the "alpha" of their pack. This also leads to their owners feeling the constant need to shout at their dogs - another pro-tip. There's no need to ever shout at your dog. Their hearing is much better than yours and they will be able to pick out the voice of their owner.
Dogs are entirely different to cats, who are naturally solitary creatures and don't have the tendency to think in ranks. With dogs, you have to establish your authority. With cats, you need to earn their respect.
@@JohnA.Zoidberg Actually, the "alpha" theory has be debunked as humans trying to manipulate wolves in captivity to aggressively establish order, and is in no way actually how hierarchy is established naturally.
So while it's true that dogs need a firm and consistent leader in order to be trained effectively, you don't have to be militant in your behaviour. Just like children, they'll understand that you're the leader if you're using a playful voice because you're the one initiating/allowing play, and you're the one determining the rules of play/engagement.
Anyways, like I already said, no dog will respond exactly the same as another, which is why you need to figure out what works for an individual dog instead of broadly applying training methodology and theory. Just like raising children.
@@canuckkat I'm sure you think they talk out their disagreements and the law of the strongest doesn't apply at all. Dogs nor wolves fight over leadership, that's all CGI propaganda, they "communicate in a meaningful way", explaining their feelings to each other in intimate talking sessions and safe spaces.
I won't even try and argue against you after dismissing nature itself. You've been watching too many cartoons. Owning a dog does not make you an expert on dog behaviour or their hierarchies.
The guests from this game were so energetic and happy that's it's actually charged me up and I'm ready to go out into the world.
Um actually, in the (original) German version of the Settlers of Catan it is Clay (Lehm) and not Bricks. According to Wikipedia the same is true for the English version. I fully acknowledge that Wikipedia is not necessarily an authoratative source but it's the best I could do without the English version of the game.
I thought the same thing, but I checked my old copy and the English manual does say bricks, as does the current version at www.catan.com/service/game-rules
@@WarmongerGandhi Oh, good to know. Thanks Wikipedia! But the German version does say Clay ("Lehm") so in a way it's still Clay cause German's the original :P
The German game rules online also say "Lehm" (just in case you wanna check it out)
In french it's also clay (argile)
Also, 'stone' is in fact a resource in the game. It's what you get for upgrading bricks (or clay, as the case may be).
In Hebrew it is bricks. And the ore is iron
I always admire the set decorations, as it's quite fun to notice how they are all subtly (or sometimes very obviously) wrong, but that Settlers of Catan board always confounded me, because it looks like just a normal Catan board... I finally figured it out: There is no desert! The desert has been replaced by a fourth mountain instead. That is quite subtle. I had actually been thinking maybe there is nothing wrong about it, and it's a meta-joke, as it would be the one decoration that breaks the pattern set by all the other decorations.
Huh, I honestly never noticed that! Now all I can see is the Mjolnir with a modern hammer head!
I think there is also two settlements that are too close together, if my weak memory serves me right.
Erika Ishii: Answers More Questions
Becca Scott: I am so turned on right now.
I'm done reading all that Beholder Erotica fan fiction. My life is a lie
Em deserves that damn stingray point
Erika's delight and enthusiasm about their favourite topics brings me so much joy.
Umm actually Mouse isn't the offspring of a dog and a celestial parent, the celestial bit is waaay back down the doggo line.
Also he didn't keep him on purpose mouse crawled out of the box and hid and harry couldn't get ahold of the monk that gave him the task
@@sque4 I was thinking the same thing, but "ends up keeping one of the dogs" is still correct. It is specifying a detail, not correcting a mistake.
Man, I knew what El Cuero was! I would slay on a cryptid-centric episode.
Whenever they play fictionary I try to guess who at Drawfee drew the creature. On this episode I have no idea ':D
Erika at 19:00
Um actually Erika, I think what you've drawn here is a Dragonair who just gave up half way into evolving into Dragonite.
I know for a fact that most people involved with Star Wars at the time thought parsec was a made-up measurement of time rather than a real measurement of distance because of all the interviews where the cast members (and sometimes the crew) would replace "second" or "minute" with "parsec" to sound nerdier.
As with when Billy Dee Williams was a TV host in the mid-90s and ended a segment with "I'll see you all in a parsec"...
In the original script, a note makes it clear that it was a made up claim by Han, and has Obi-wan give him a knowing smirk that he's on to his bullshit.
So OG canon was that he was full of shit, but then....
@@philipmorse-fortier5499 That still don't distinguish it between distance and time...
Um Actually, "She's beauty& she's grace, she's Miss Um Erika"
Harry didn't 'keep' Mouse he stowed away without Harry's knowledge and he actually made efforts to return Mouse and it's also implied that Mouse chose to stay for multiple reasons
Also he isn't half spirit half dog, he is decended from half spirit half dogs. Also it's more correct to call them "Foo Dogs"
Y'all see Becca just settle into her buzzer prep stance at 1:41? Just like full focus thumb at the ready attack mode.
"Y'all"? Really? Knock it off, poseur.
I love becca literally jumping at The Dresden Files
I clicked on this video especially bc it said Dresden files which is my favorite book series
Underrated moment is Becca putting “They’re already here” as the tagline of Transformers
I love how much Erika screams about getting the first question.
And then laughs maniacally
I have to say I don't know who chooses Trapp's ties and pocket squares but, they are always so good. I think this Dino combo is by far my favorite.
This was one of the best episodes... THANKS!
i think my favorite thing about this channel is seeing people get super excited that they get to talk about the things they love. the way erika talked about the princess bride was genuinely cute
90’s themed Um, Actually episode please!!!!!
I'm so glad they did one for The Dresden Files, it's such an under appreciated book series
I'm always glad to see some Dresden Files love. Been my favorite book series for years
I love Erika and Becca's enthusiasm - they need to be on more often
Nope. They are annoying.
At this point it would actually be fun if there would be one statement that is completely true thus making the true answer "Nothing, nothing is wrong with that"
I was SO EXCITED when I saw there was going to be a Dresden Files question in this episode!!!
This was the most fun I've had watching the show recently! Great energy, good questions. I learned stuff! Useless trivia stuff, but still...learning!
That shot in the dark with the LEGO®Batman Movie shows that nerds and geeks have a special kind of intuition - I just love their reaction when she gets the point!
I love that Erika gets just as excited about explaining the princess bride to ppl as I do.
Just so you know... "El Cuero" (which we chileans call "El Cuero Vivo" or "The Alive Leather") is a tale that our parents (but mostly grandparents) would tell us so we don't get too close to the side of a river, or go swin in a river unsupervised. It gave fricking chills when I was young.
That's really fascinating! Where did it come from, is it common for leather to be in/near the water?
Love Erika's energy in this episode! More of her please.
24:57 this was a great game. All of those taglines could have gone anywhere, great job.
This might be the best episode so far. Erica is such a mood, love her.
Literally watching this while making dinner from hellofresh. Thanks Mike.
I watched this one for the Dresden files question. It was amazing seeing someone else talk about it
I wish more nerds were into the Dresden files! Ugh it's such a good series
I love this game so much! I'm part of a convention troupe that makes game shows and I've made a version of this with animated properties called Cartoon Corrections. Also the fact that you can interrupt is hilarious because in our group we find that when you answer too fast you're just gonna end up stating part of the question instead of answering it. We call this Gorchening, named after a regular con goer who famously did this about a Riddler question where he answered with the original actors name before he realized that was gonna be part of the question itself.
I'm so jealous of everyone who gets to hang out with these incredible personalities 😭
There is so much energy on this episode
This is my favorite episode! I love their Mad Scientist energy.
erika and eme are both so fun to watch as contestants! love their energies
Three Dogg in fallout 3 has a line where he says “your favorite neighborhood disc jockey, what’s a disc? Hell if I know but I’m gonna keep talking anyway” memorizing all of his lines definitely helps with questions like that fallout 4 one
You had me at The Dresden Files!!
I'm so glad someone else has a much love for the Princess Bride book (and movie) as I do
9:22 - That edit was clean, well done.
Love the Brian Wilson mix up
Huh, I thought I was up to date on all episodes, but there are corrections in there that do not ring any bells, guess it's time to go into the archives...
Impossible. Perhaps the archives are incomplete.
Oh man cant wait to see a skit where Becca and Erika are roommates in the apocalypse. One just wants to hoard everything and the other just wants to scrap everything, perfect rivals
Really appreciate Mike's tie+handkerchief combo for this episode
Erika is such a chaos gremlin. Love it.
This group was super fun!
Um actually, you shouldn't always use a high excited voice for commands, high pitch high cadence commands are best for prompting action such as come here boy, but steadying commands should be slow and low. You wouldn't want to say staystaystay.
Thank you for the Dresden files question!
Godammit, I'm becoming addicted to this show! So fun!
5 min in, and I can already tell this is going to be a good one. So Much Chaotic Energy.
I saw Dresden Files in the title and had to come running!! Erika Ishii and Becca Scott here as well. Best episode ever!!
True story... I made classmate nerds jealous by telling them that I found an old first printing of the unedited version ( which doesn't exist) at an antique shop... It literally took them two decades to do the homework and rumble that lie... And yes, it was cruel as hell.
Becca read Avengers like I read the Bible. Love Erica and her energy, always.
I like how usually when beholders dream up new beholders, they usually fight to the death on sight
As soon as that Dresden Files question came up, I knew it'd be hilarious
They got me to watch with the dresden files. Good job
We desperately need more Dresden files questions. :)
Erika is so precious this episode! I love her!
Yaaaay! Finally a Dresden Files question!
Princess Bride the book also explores Inigo and Fezziks backstories as well which I really liked.
Um actually according to the conversation between Mouse and Leanansidhe: Mouse kept Harry, not the other way around. which is also cannon as Mouse can weave fate to better the odds of people around him so things go according to what they want
I need to reread the Dresden files. Bloody great book series.
I think I read the series every year just about. LOVE the James marseters audiobooks
Love the Dresden Files!
This was a great episode. So much fun. I love Erika and Becca, and Eme was a nice newbie to see, even if he sadly didn't get any points by the end.
I loved the Tengen version of Tetris so much as a kid! They had little dancers go across the screen. 😍
