- Brennan knows bird facts...or does he? From the Game Changer episode "As a Cucumber", which challenges contestants to keep a low, steady heartrate in the face of increasingly stressful challenges, Brennan is asked to compete with Katie and Carolyn in a trivia contest that seems like it was made just for him: "Name That Bird"

If getting birds wrong didn't spike Brennan's heart rate, Katie nearly screwing up on chicken TWICE definitely did.
Hey, a Dinger City fan, wouldn't forget that name. Small world
The way his face fell the moment his first bird came up was peak game changer *chefs kiss* love this series SO MUCH
The way you phrased that made me laugh out loud. That'll do, pony. That'll do.
And Katie is so good at deadpan I can’t even tell if she was fucking with him or not. Like she almost said rooster the first time. So was the word just in her head or was it a long con to get him?
The thing is, if Carolyn got penguin, he should have gotten pheasant. The first bird actually is a type of pheasant.
I think Katie struggling with "chicken" *TWICE* is what did Brennan in, not the birds.
I think Sam settling for "just penguin?" was what sent him over the edge lol
Well, to be fair I believe that was a Rhode Island Red (breed of chicken). So ‘you’re just going to accept…’ plays here, too.
It's hilarious to me that everyone knows what is going on after the first round, including Brennan, and it still bothers him SO MUCH.
Roosterrrchicken?
I believe she did it on purpose.
When Brennan said "Pretty happy with yourself huh?" I was fully expecting it to be the start of a monologue
He knew a monologue would spike his heart rate
The start of his Villain arch
@@jebus456The start? That ship has sailed a long time ago.
@@andrewlevin7586 Ok maybe the end?
@@andrewlevin7586 Climax.
I love the look on his face when he is shown the first bird as he changes from smug grin to serious concentration.
More like "what the f*** is that?"
@@VivaLaDnDLogs (minor spoilers for the behind the scenes episode)
They say in the behind the scenes ep that even if Brennan said the correct bird, they would say he got it wrong and give an incorrect answer as the right answer. So there's a good chance Brennan actually got a couple of those right.
@@ziwurihe, in fact, did not get any of those right.
Edit: Firebacks are a type of pheasant so he got 1.
@@Smiththebat technically, wasn't the fireback is a type of pheasant?
@@eri14train ya they were obviously trying to screw him. 😛
I don't know why, but Brennan saying, "That's a chicken again," and *walking away* is always what does me in here. He's too angry about it to even worry about giving Katie the answer.
and Katie STILL ALMOST MISSES IT. "rrrroosterrrrrr chickennnn????"
@@aromaladyellie I'm 99.9 sure she hammed that up just to drive Brennan over the moon
@@aromaladyellie i think katie caught onto the trap but didn't realise it was only for brennan
@@LauraLovesHugs it does feel that way. She's a wild card though.
@@Tasarranwho is this green fellow in your comment??
Im honestly shocked by Brennan’s accuracy even while being cheated. The Siamese Fireback IS a type of Pheasant. The Roseate Spoonbill and Maribou are part of the same family of wading birds. He’s able to identify characteristics and make legit good guesses even while being fucked with.
I bet that they had different "correct" answers, depending on what he would say.
@@bjorntantau194"roseate spoonbill" "sorry brennan, we were looking for pheasant"
Spoonbills and storks are not that closely related. They are not in the same family or even order. They are both in the clade “Pelecanimorphae,” which contains the orders for Storks (Ciconiiformes), Cormorants and their closest relatives (Suliformes), and Herons and their relatives (Pelicaniformes), which is the group containing spoonbills.
It's like the story of a Jotun king challenging Thor to drink all of the water in a large horn (not telling him that it was secretly connected to all of Midgard's oceans), and he was able to gulp down like 90% of it.
@@Pandacalifornia What I'm seeing here is many possible ways to tell Brennan he was wrong, and also, that I was technically right when I said with complete confidence, completely ignoring all the various types of pelicans that exist and how wildly different they can look, "Pelican". Wait, storks and herons aren't different names for the same thing? I.. what have I done with my life?????!? Clearly I require more bird knowledge.
the funniest moment ever is katie's subtle "oh no.." followed by slight confusion saying "chicken"
Katie instantly recognized the trap, but didn't realize it was only meant for Brennan
My favorite part was, "That's a chicken again."
She absolutely would've missed it if Brennan didn't look at her. She was so ready to say rooster, lmao.
@@iitstre_4550Sam would’ve still given her the point😂
“...rooster...chicken...?”
"I knew it was a spoonbill"
That must've been such a gut-punch for Brennan xD
Should've given the point to Carolyn for knowing the bird honestly, smdh.
@@correctedsun she didn't even say it until after Sam said the answer lmao
@@KaptainFalkon still wouldve been perfect just to spike brennan's heart rate lol.
Nah. That one was straight-up below the belt.
@@KaptainFalkon She correctly identified the first bird specifically as a rock pigeon. There's a chance she actually did know that Brennan's bird was a spoonbill.
I love how Brennan realizes after the first one what is happening and spend the two minutes trying with every fiber of his being not to get mad, but still getting mad.
Im pretty sure its the second chicken that did it
I read that expression as "Even I have to admit that this is actually really funny, and I have to give credit where credit is due - Sam got me good. Now, what will my revenge be?"
"Oh, yeah, I can handle this, no worries..."
*The second chicken appears*
Brennan repeatedly saying "calm down" to himself has me dying
*inhales deep and exhales* How you doin' lii Brennan?
Bad
Why do you feel bad?
'cause they give everyone else the easy birds and stick me with Greater Sage Grouse.
We stan a person who knows how to self soothe.
E
The way Sam says "That *is* a chicken, Katie!" Is the same voice you use to praise a toddler, and it cracks me up every time 😭
The funniest part is that since this was filmed, Brennan has bought a board game that is based on bird knowledge
Even better: Brennan actually contacted the creator of Wingspan to ask if it features a Roseate Spoonbill (it does!)
@@sofer2230 incredible
This is the adamant will a man who refuses to be caught flat-footed twice.
@@jacobd1984 And yet, Sam has the will of a man who would never strike in the same manner twice anyway 😂
@@sofer2230 Where do you get this information ? I need the source ! 😂
"This was a test to see if I could make Brennan Face losing" -- a man who knows damned well how Brennan reacts to losing.
We're onto you, Sam!
"This last round is worth 5 points" - a man who knows precisely how much value Brennan assigns to 5 points
*Face losing unfairly
Get in the comments!
"Yes or No" is another great Sam fucks with Brennan episode
@@stevegruber4724 yes, this was what I was referencing. Sam's already tried to break him once.
Watching Brennan's face just COLLAPSE when he saw the Siamese Fireback is still one of my favorite parts of this bit.
What makes it even worse is that he was technically right. The Siamese Fireback is a type of pheasant.
It's one of my favorite parts in all of Game Changer.
@@vricko55 I know the whole point of the game is to f*** with Brennan, but if broad terms like "penguin" and "pigeon" can be accepted, then "pheasant" absolutely should have counted!
@@LuckyDragon289you mean a pengwing?
@@V.U.4six think you're funny do you Mr berrydick cumbersnatch 😂 😂
Can’t believe Brennan didn’t recognise the Roseate Spoonbill. The clue is in the name.
Even Carolyn knew that one
@@shytendeakatamanoir9740 TBF Carolyn seems to be a Bird Facts person too, just not advertised as one. She knew the pigeon was specifically a rock pigeon. If Sam had prompted her for the species of penguin, I wouldn't be surprised if she could name it as an Emperor penguin.
@@romxxii Excuse me, but that was a king penguin, not emperor. You don't get to see that much leg on an emperor (where it would be covered with white feathers).
@@thealexfiles303 So you’re saying king penguins are slu ttier?
well he doesn't know the name. so he doesnt know the clue as well
I’ve seen this so many times and I still can’t decide if Kate nearly missing chicken twice was her fucking with Brennan or if it was genuine 😂
And I can't tell if Carolyn genuinely knew it was a spoonbill or if she was just fucking with Brennan
I'm PRETTY sure, tho its not 100%, that she was worried it was a trick question and the answer was going to be 'rooster' not 'chicken', evidenced by her concernedly saying 'Rooster chicken?' uncertainly the second time around.
@@furrydreamer4443y
Her mistake was not realizing that they were too busy screwing with Brennan to screw with her.
The fact that he was 2 BPM away from getting a point shows how hard he fought his natural instincts to adrenaline spike when he becomes hyper-competitive. Bravo to Brennan.
Let's be honest here. We all could expect Brennan to invent a new type of ranked meditation just so he could reach Nirvana first, so yeah. Adrenaline spikes are a joke for this lad
I love how he says "calm down" in the beginning to not get himself too excited or amped for bird questions, but then it evolves into him saying "calm down" so he doesn't get too frustrated
As soon as Brennan got his first bird wrong you can see the realization on his face as to what’s happening
it’s worse because it was a pheasant tho 😅
A part of me wishes that somehow Brennan knew them exactly so Sam would grow increasingly concerned at the depths of Brennan's bird knowledge
HAHAHA I like how you think
Better if Sam's workaround is requiring their Latin scientific names from Brennan and accepting "rooster chicken"
Sam seriously saved College Humor. The past few years have been better than ever. A new golden age
My favorite part is the way Sam sarcastically repeats each name twice
The Greater...
Sage...
Grouse
Sam has an amazing shit-eating-grin
Wild that they weren't even originally planning for Brennan to be in this episode when this segment is one of the best ever. Serendipity
I created this segment at 9pm the night before
@@samreich so.... You winged it?
@@samreichSam have you been here the whole time 😊
@@samreich Evil thoughts of game changer segments come to one in the darkness of the night.
@@samreichwait are you actually sam reich
My favorite part of this is the confidence he gains at the end saying “this is not a real bird” cause he thinks that he broke the system and is on too their game, and then the look on Sam’s face that says “you thought you had me? It’s the Greater Sage Grouse sucker!!!”
I love Sam's "hm?" when Brennan asks if he's happy with himself
To anyone on the fence, Dropout is easily some of the best unscripted TV out there. Game Changer and Dirty Laundry are two of my favorite shows being made.
Cant forget “make some noise”
Cheapest, too.
Well worth it
Dimension 20 is my favorite, but they are all great
Play It By Ear is great too, and I'm not sure whether I'd put it in the top 5 Dropout series in active production
Fun fact, the Siamese Fireback is indeed a type of pheasant, just as Emperor Penguin is a type of penguin and Silkie is a type of chicken, so he in fact would've been correct if the rules were consistent/fair (though obviously the whole point was to be UNfair).
I bet if he hadn't already been shaken by that, he would've even guessed Spoonbill for the second bird.
Yep. I'm pretty sure Brennan brought up the pheasant thing in the full episode.
@@MichaelJM I watched the full episode and I don't think he did.
@@DrewColpurs I stand corrected! I somehow hallucinated this.
@@MichaelJM np 😊
He 100% would've died on that hill if it wasn't obvious that the point was to mess with him 😊
Ahh sorry drew
It was the roseate spoonbill...
The roseate spoonbill
^^^
You heard this in Sam's voice and you're a little frustrated right now😊
I don't think we're understanding how committed Brennan is. He's asking for feedback on where his heart rate went up as if already prepping for one in the future
This clip is an all timer. Taking a grain of knowledge that Brennan is proud of and destroying it in real time
Its so funny to me that this actually worked, it actually caused Brennan's heart rate to rise.
Sam was denying him two of the three loves of his life: points and bird facts.
@@romxxii He wasn't allowed to eat almonds during this set either.
I’ve seen this so many times but I NEVER realized he was trying to keep his heart rate down. I thought he was just FURIOUS
oh he is
Huh, this Brennan guy seems to know the least about birds of anyone there. Maybe they should look into some fun bird facts or something like that.
Truly one of the greatest segments in Game Changer history - player specific challenges in this episode were fantastic!
brennen quietly saying "calm down" to himself is doing so much LMAO
I LOVE that Katie got chicken twice and almost got it wrong both times 😂
I'm still furious they won't tell us if it was a specific bird or if he broke right away 😭
I have seen so many of these clips and I just want to know what broke him!!
I'm guessing the second chicken. Especially as he had to walk it off 😂
3:08 that was a Beardsley-level “hmm?”
What's funny is that first bird is actually a type of pheasant
But just "pheasant" would not be specific enough... unlike "just penguin" of course 😂
@@IceMetalPunk Or rooster chicken
Either way, Brennan wasn't getting any of them right by design.
@@MikeDCWeld It would be really funny if they had 2 seperate answers that were technically correct. Like 2 different names for the same bird. And then they would just automatically say no to Brennan's guess even if he said one of the two answers.
That’s the whole point.
Game changer is one of those shows that even got my dad to take a glance and just sit down to watch the entire series
I will never get sick of watching Brennan's face change at 1:46 He realizes shit just got serious
There's a little moment at 1:50-1:52 where he has hope again. He thinks he just had a memory blank and his answer of pheasant is correct. He thought for a second it was a normal easy question that he was just spacing on for a few seconds.
Only for him to be immediately crushed when he hears the answer the game was looking for.
I want to see a special release of this episode where we can see the heart rate readouts the whole time
After this episode Brennan went on to learn about every single bird in the existence of the universe.
ALL the birds in the multi-birdiverse...
He kinda did, actually. Apparently he bought a boardgame based on identifying birds of various exotic species soon after this was filmed
A siamese fireback is ABSOLUTELY a type of pheasant. Even when fixed the deck to catch him slippin, Brennan still got it right.
i LOVE how the whole time brennan has this grin on his face like "oh i GOT this" then the image for his bird pops up and his face just changes to oh... oh no...
Brennon quietly telling himself to calm down gave me life
if only all three of Katie's pictures were chickens...that would be GOLD
Also, I personally think Brennan's trauma from "Yes or No" took over and overruled his knowledge that Sam was just messing with him to get his heartbeat up 🤣😂
The problem with that is the second round is supposed to be somewhat serious and the final ride is supposed to be completely ridiculous.
Brennan just quietly telling himself to calm down is so funny
The small "Calm down"
Katie's supremely unconfident "Rrroooster-chicken" answer is absolute peak
"Thats a chicken again..." almost kills me lmfao
I love how quickly Brennan's hubris dropped when he saw his first bird.
Brennan trying not to break into laughter when he immediately realizes the nature of the bit… it’s everything
I have a 2023 bird calendar and the first time I saw Brennan get tortured I realized I needed to change the month and the bird for February was the roseate spoon bill. today watching this I realized my calendar were still on February and it happened again march is the greater sage-grouse.
2:19 drawfee fans are like "this is inaccurate. The head should be a poofy dog with a bowtie.
Sam really missed an opportunity by not asking Caroline her guess on the spoonbill, he could have given her half a point for spoonbill, and Brennan would have imploded 😂
Truly the best comedy comes from people who know each others strengths and weaknesses and can use those to their full potential. It’s why I still love CH to this day after so long and so many changes
Watching these fresh is great because you also have no idea what's going on and get to have a fun little puzzle while watching the cast experience pre-madness
I always loved that aspect of game changer, how sometimes they start off with both the audience and the contestants being clueless, then reveal the rules of the game to the audience, then finally reveal them to the contestants. Makes each episode feel layered and varied.
“Son, there’s something I’ve been meaning to tell you, and uh it’s- *VŸÆÊ* ”
Brennan's mini "Yay" to show he is excited without raising his heartrate...LOL!
The absolute confusion on Brennan's face at 1:46 gives me life.
I felt sorry for Brennan right up until the last one. "Not a real bird"?!? C'mon man, how can you forget an avian as legendary as the greater sage grouse?!?
This clip literally almost killd me. I was on the floor full crying and probably making a sound vary similar to what a greater sage-grouse would make.
Sage Greese make an absolutely WILD noise. Like shaking a big sheet of plastic that goes "wooOOB woob WOOB wee wOob"
@@DalesDubsGREESE
2:01 this the moment that you see Brennan realize the game is rigged against him. Just a look of annoyance and defeat.
Loved this episode 🤣
I felt bad for Brennan
Does this count as Schadenfreude? 😂
No, feeling bad for someone isn't Schadenfreude. Enjoying someone doing badly is.
We Germans have the best words, like Fremdschämen: Feeling ashamed of someone who's making a fool out themselves without realizing.
@igel9316 I definitely enjoyed watching his misery 🤣
Doesn't mean I don't feel bad for him that he was tortured 😇
@@igel9316 Yeah, that's called secondhand embarrassment.
The fact that the Siamese fireback IS a pheasant is just the icing on the cake here
0:38 you can see the moment Brennan realizes he's going to have to lower his own heart rate, and seconds later you see him being successful at doing it.
that smug "huh?" from Sam always gets me. 🤣🤣 pretty good!
If you listen closely you can hear the exact moment his heart broke resting. Right about..... there 2:44
Seriously, listen to the anger in his voice as he says "I'm Sorry! Just Penguin!?"
poor brennan. tortured so thoroughly.
Brennan could be his own show.
Just following him monologue everywhere he goes
Though Sam putting in him Saw situations is top entertainment
Hey I'm a dropout member, but I always enjoy choice clips popping up in my feed.
Wait as a follow-up, do you get all the same content from being a CZcams member instead of dropout? I never noticed that this channel used that option.
I think so, but they end up getting less than if you sign up through their website (cause CZcams takes a cut).
@@Sandreline ah, makes sense, no worries then. Just saw all the elegant dropout insignias in the comments
Those ungodly random birds are hilarious.
I’m currently watching A Crown of Candy for the first time, and after each episode I come here to watch Brennan suffer a little bit, as a treat
You should have a game where it’s a bunch of questions that brennen def knows but a charity only gets a donation if he loses. Winning vs philanthropy. His head will explode.
In all of the memorable quotes over the years from Brennan, "that's a chicken again" will always be one of my favorites
The energy in the room when she said peacock is indescribable
I'm actually dying to know whether it was a particular bird that killed him, or if it was just immediately as soon as the bonus round started lol.
Love the way Sam is like Oh gosh SORRY BRENNAN 😢
The look 😂 Brennan does to the side when she almost says 'rooster' is amazing
The funniest part to me is that the siamese fireback is a pheasant, so Brennan got the first one right. They really were just fucking with him
First time being a member to watch Crown of Candy series. Much love for y'all❤
Brennan repeating "calm down" to himself is the most relatable thing in this whole bit.
When your initial thought that this is bird trivia kicks in, you’d think Brennan would get a clean sweep. Then you realize this is Game Changer.
Yay! So happy to get to see more context of this DELIGHTFUL little bit 😆
Let's be clear, he could've won. He just didn't know enough about birds. He's not committed to being Mr. Bird Facts.
"I'm sorry, just penguin? Just penguin?"
Thats where his heart rate spikes. I bet you $50 that is what got him.
The funniest part is the first bird Brennan had was in fact a pheasant. I think being correct but not specific enough would be enough to break me.
I'm so obsessed with this bit, I've watched it so many times and it never ceases to be funny
My biggest flex is that I knew the greater sage grouse
“that’s a chicken again” could not be funnier
Thought this was full for a second and got really excited
I gotta be honest - literally 99 times out of 100 I would find someone as obsessed with winning as Brennan to be absolutely insufferable. There’s some endearing trait, though - I don’t quite know what - that still makes me laugh with him instead of finding him obnoxious. Brennan is unique. XD
I cant do drop out so these are the best i get and that was hillarious im almost crying. Brennan getting so upset that he has to walk away for a sec.
$60 a year to support amazing comedy. Treat yourself!
@@Pazzzzles89 they were also doing a promo code, so it was like 48 bucks a year! It's so worth it!
The walk off when the second chicken showed up 😂
I need everyone to appreciate the setup of giving Brennan an easy "predictable" one to lull him into a false sense of complacency. It was just hard enough to make him earn it, and THAT was the real ambush. Amazing by Sam/whoever knows Brennan that well. I would be terrified and/or in love to work with someone that could set me up that well.
I'm almost certain it was when the second chicken showed up that spiked his heart rate through the roof.
Finally it’s uploaded proper! Sam got his ass so good.
He looked so close to snapping and threatening violence upon Sam.
I think this may even be the monologue for my favorite Brennan GameChanger moment. Just watching his face IMMEDIATELY fall and the quiet “calm down, calm down”s? *Chefs kiss* Perfection
I'm picturing Brennan going home after this episode and becoming a secret phd in zoology studying birds just to get revenge on Sam
