[@Wolffang731]

Micheal, Jeremy, Gavin and Ryan, this podcast's gonna be a good one

[@Gowdannie]

Also Geoff

[@seanmedina8572]

Wolffang731 I get annoyed of Jeremy.

[@yawarakai_momo6990]

and the bit of Geoff at the end

[@lifeiscrap103]

Whose "Micheal"? Is she new?

[@odinofanime]

Is there a team name for the Lads and Ryan? cause they're the best combo.

[@crossingyouinstyle]

The best podcast crew all of rt has to offer right here

[@Ba12a198]

Corey Ryan RT podcast crew will always be the best, no podcast is complete without Gus and Burnie

[@Frank_Ditch]

Corey Ryan might be better with Lindsay or Geoff

[@KingOfTheSeas_]

Blake Antone and Gus 😉

[@Rev412]

9/10 Needs more Ramsey.

[@DigitalXkNIGHT]

where is that clip of their immersion on sports center i can't find it

[@Ptolomey]

this is the best off topic lineup by far

[@zeldafan1315]

Harry Francis i agree. not to say anything bad about geoff and jack but these 4 are my favorite.

[@Ptolomey]

zeldafan1315 I love both jack and geoff but it's just something about the synergy of these four that works so well

[@AOisbabybear13]

Harry Francis replace Jeremy with Geoff

[@BoredWeazul]

im all for Gavin being a Mythbuster

[@alias588]

Only if Dan gets to be the new Buster.

[@langinable]

BoredWeazul How about a meth buster?

[@Olter_]

+Meta Nexus LONG BUSTER

[@jonathanhart54]

MrOlterman dong buster?

[@sethcagle4365]

Olter bong duster?

[@lifeiscrap103]

1:24:12 "I don't eat those fancy people foods! Give me some Funyuns, God-damn it!" -Ryan, the Cheap-Date Guy.

[@TheDisarminghinkle]

Hey, it got him a wife! And Gavin's girlfriend.

[@neonfox3]

Michael looks like he got hit with sudden depression right at the end of that opening First Membership ad

[@Nmille98]

Neon Fox Productions He was thinking of On The Spot.

[@screblurd]

What happened on On The Spot

[@IzahBlack]

It's hosted by Jon ;D

[@Gredunza]

38:15 for the Overwatch comments. See? No hard feelings. FH fans and AH fans should just be one big happy family!

[@UponThisAltar]

Gredunza If only :(

[@locochoify]

I agree, but is not the same though. AH didn't wans to play whereas their fans wanted them to play, so that's why they got angry/disappointed.

[@GarboSweaty]

Fuck off.

[@Dangerwiggles]

The events that made it become such a big deal began with fellow fans who could not handle that AH was inevitably going to lose whether they tried or not. It's not a big deal, it literally doesn't matter that FH "cheated", the AH video was still funny. Had they actually tried, they would have not have been as amusing as they were. Then..... oh and then...... you have a bunch of ass hole FH fans that felt the need to spam the AH video to the air of "AH sucks, the video sucks, FH is way better, fuck everyone who thinks AH is funny, FH as lord and savior". It was unnecessary to come onto a video they would not enjoy and then bash on everyone's alternate opinions.

[@IamSmurfadelis]

There was some kid in my high school a few years ago who was getting bullied and during shop class he lost it and shoved a drill through the bully's hand.

[@ItsMichaelReid]

Was the bully a lil bitch and sued?

[@Kt4nk]

Did the teacher drill him for it?

[@Kt4nk]

***** To be fair, most teachers wouldn't really be expecting a kid to use a fucking drill as a weapon. We can have a conversation about school safety, and it has a SHITTON of valid points, but this specific instance is a bit abnormal and not really fair

[@Kt4nk]

***** What I mean by not fair, is that of all the things that you'd expect a little shithead to do, drill through someone's hand probably isn't very high on that list. That's a little brutal for most kids, so of course the teacher wasn't prepared to do that. The fuck are you gonna do? Say "Now Johnny, don't go brutalize little Timmy with a goddamn power tool."? Most teachers don't think to say that.

[@jeroenfennema4787]

This sarok guy has some really valid points which kobe wilson doesnt get. Im not sarcastic btw. But in one of the comments sarok said, who bullies someone around dangerous tools, you should just have said, who bullies someone in the first place. And if you bully someone, expect that person to break someday and hope he will only fight you with his hand and not, as been said, with a gun.

[@Lintonz]

$108 is my answer to the title. Don't know what's it is about but $108 sounds good.

[@Lintonz]

Looking back at it $108 ain't going to be enough.

[@J--Dubs]

I’m surprised that these videos don’t stay popular long after they’ve aired. Unlike the RT podcast, the Off Topic podcast feels timeless and I’m definitely still enjoying them even 3 years later.

[@nicholasmoore4284]

33:50 This convo hits different

[@Lynyan8567]

Yeah... I can bear to watch videos with him in it but when conversations veer towards that kind of topic it's just so uncomfortable I need to pass it

[@derse1292]

Gavin's hair is on point.

[@Isaygoodday5]

mike fontenot it's really noticeable when Gavins hair is on point

[@TheChannelThatLived]

mike fontenot not sure if I like the back being that long though...

[@T-Fyre]

Ryan's hair on the other hand, looks atrocious.

[@T-Fyre]

Ryan's hair on the other hand, looks atrocious.

[@austinrothe4937]

that's the first thing I noticed

[@macpr0c]

schrödinger's cat was a thought experiment you loveable idiots, it was related to quantum wave functions which theorize something exists in an uncertain wave form of the every possible state in a single position (superposition(?)) so he didn't really put cats in a box XD

[@Giggles4692]

This is way better than Rooster Teeth podcast because instead of talking about random shit, these guys talk about mostly videos they made and their work. This is a far better topic cause we obviously love their videos because we watch their channel and we care about the stories of their work because those are funny stories.

[@uncrownedoak7777]

Sting Reyes or vice versa

[@ienzio7795]

Giggles4692 I mean a lot of people (myself included) love hearing about their personal lives

[@rabbit2686]

Immersion with Adam Savage, might be internet breaking.

[@Kt4nk]

Ryan's face at 1:10:52 is literally the best thing ever.

[@stannisbaratheon7985]

I wtch these when I'm drunk as shit. Love you guys. You're like my family that I've never met.

[@Yemmer]

the night is dark and full of hot women who turn into disgusting old women.

[@still_overthinking1665]

43:50 11 little roosters?! **insert the biggest happiest smiley ever**

[@JaxaEdits]

How about a show with similar styling to immersion but with myths submitted by the audience alongside "the slow mo guys". (MythHunter, Achievemyth, etc..)

[@Vashtanerada477]

Jeremy, the box had air holes. The whole "alive or dead" problem resulted from a gun being pointed at the cat inside the box that would fire if an isotope of Uranium-238 decayed, the likelihood of which was represented by a wave function. By observing the isotope, you collapse the wave function.

[@AceTrainerKris31]

For once the ad read for sherri's berries actually made me want them

[@Unseenarchivist]

Just as a thing, you're very wrong about shrodinger's cat. It wasn't a real experiment, it was a thought experiment, designed to point out the flaws in the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics which hold that all matter is inbetween two states unless observed, so Schrodinger used the absurd notion that a cat could be both alive and dead to point out that the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics is kind of gibberish.

[@LieutenantOBrien]

Exactly, it was killing me how literally they took it there. It's an analogy, not an actual poisoned cat in a box.

[@Unseenarchivist]

In fairness, 90% of people or more don't know. It's mostly just a pop culture joke, so i wouldn't be melodramatic enough to say "killing me".

[@LieutenantOBrien]

TheAlbion perhaps not. "Killing me" is just a phrase I tend to use, more to say that it "irks me."

[@larrytheguy5946]

I've just witnessed the most passive aggressive conversation on KZbin.

[@Unseenarchivist]

Quite possibly Taida :P

[@mindofmyown333]

I want to see a short of Jeremy crashing children's birthday parties so bad now!

[@thenerdynews7747]

Lmfao Ryan moving the cup away from Gavin at 1:06:15 had me dying hahahah he knows Gavin way to well.

[@mattgilbert666]

The best 4 from AH, what a great podcast!

[@mr.misklanius4460]

it makes me happy to see micheal's kid already has a potential baby blanket

[@114MrCool]

Geoff describing the old guys talking about lets plays is literally what my dad says word for word

[@codmanout9861]

I love VR games that have optional 3rd person cameras for the observing monitors. It's always fun when they get the cameras lined up and you get that side by side view they talked about, seeing the person don't the same stuff in VR and reality

[@EvilParagon2]

From what I've seen, there's no spinning in toilet water in Australia. The water comes in from all sides, meets in the middle and makes one of those wave-meets-wave-up-crash-waves and then it all falls down the hole as the water fills it back up to the right level. This is the same for every toilet I can remember. They don't swirl the crap away.

[@frosts1956]

This is the best podcast crew right here

[@onedumbgamer9672]

[@blackflameds3576]

[@Frank_Ditch]

BlackflameDS or achievement busters

[@simplyawesomexoxo]

BlackflameDS Myth Hunters

[@alexwells225]

Michael's idea for a short starring Lil J better become reality!

[@soraakuma1412]

get me-undies to sponsor the Gavin back pocket video

[@soraakuma1412]

i gess not

[@17carat]

jeremy's hair is brighter than my future

[@Crossark1]

Isn't the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle the one that says we can't know the velocity AND the position of a particle at once?

[@willsnider8416]

yes

[@Crossark1]

That's what I thought -- one of the few science jokes I have memorized revolves around it -- but Ryan was wrong with such confidence that I thought maybe I was mis-remembering the joke!

[@TAP7a]

Crossark1 Δp*Δx >= h_bar/2 In English: the product of the standard deviation of measurements of a particle's position and momentum is greater than a number. In real English: we can only know the position and momentum of a particle to a certain precision. If you pin down the position you can't know where you'll find it next because you have no idea what it's momentum is, and if you measure it's momentum really carefully you'll have no idea where it'll be next because you won't know where it's starting from. Observable consequences: if you squeeze a particle in a box the particle starts moving at a real pace, leads directly to equation ΔE*Δt>=h_bar/2 which has a consequence of particles can freely come and go from existence as long as they are around for either sufficiently short time or only possess a small energy. Physics be fun

[@Silor]

Crossark1 Maxwell's demon?

[@TheMechanic40]

You and Ryan are both right, the reason you can't know both is because by measuring one you change the other.

[@squiggsgaming9398]

I hope everyone has a wonderful day today :)

[@ryancoates9223]

Will there ever be a sequel to the UNO Movie??

[@victorf6672]

I think that was the bad part about UNO Movie, I think that sucked all the will that Geoff had of playing the game, and if Geoff doesn't want to play, I don't really see them playing again.

[@ryancoates9223]

If they ever do a sequel, its gonna be in a while. 2-4 years tops

[@victorf6672]

Ryan Coates Yeah, Geoff has to get the will to play again, we're lucky that he loves Uno, so I could see it in a distant future.

[@billybob-bj3nw]

Uno 2: Uno Harder

[@Mahuallica]

A more appropriate name would be Uno: Dos

[@ButteryFaceToast]

love hearing Jeremy bring up NH. I live maybe 30 minutes from Hampton Beach and went there a ton over the summer. it's weird to think that somehow I could have seen him before he came to AH

[@starswater]

I definitely want an Overcooked immersion.

[@Laughing_Pumpkin]

Turquoise Punk they should do it and have possibly jack and Ryan in it with them that way it's 4 people

[@cortezbenevidas1345]

All of their hair look phenomenal this episode

[@NicolaiAAA]

1:38:30 for the Gavin-in-Jeremy's-pockets moment, Twitter folk. ;)

[@bakedBeanz-420]

NicolaiAAA lol, thanks, i liated to the audio podcast at work and i was trying to remeber when it happened

[@zachbrown2373]

When Gavin said he likes slow mo guys, there was so much sincerity in his voice.

[@Calruxio]

"You see the hole, you go for it!" Jeremy Dooley 2016 1:06:02

[@PHANTOMCOWGIRL]

The only thing this title reminded me of. ".....Datsalotofmoney...."

[@oscarjewell5471]

WizardOf "DasaToileet"

[@EmmaFunsize]

Ryan's looking well groomed.

[@thecatthatgotaway]

Bacon well he is a former model

[@beavinator]

So glad Michael finally called out that weird Palpatine thing Jeremy does with his hands when he's trying to illustrate a point.

[@PHANTOMCOWGIRL]

17:21 Jeremy would just puncture the wall with his hands, like claws, and just climb.

[@austinoliver]

as a massachusettsian, i can confirm that we call them barrels

[@GabbyGoLucky]

We call them that as well in New Hampshire

[@kalebbeaumont]

Yeah, i've always called them barrels in NH

[@tater_sacks]

for those unaware, Pewdiepie couldn't delete his channel legally. It's in the terms and conditions for channels with KZbin RED shows.

[@ceast5273]

Ryan sounds like he could do a really good Doctor Hugo Strange (DC) impression. Just need him to say, "I have finally beaten the 'great Batman,'" in a wealthy Dutch accent.

[@theversatilegeek7244]

"There was blood in my underwear" -welcome to female puberty, Gavin.

[@dylancostley3488]

During the whole Geoff shitting on Gavin conversation, all I could think was "These assholes are getting paid for this conversation." Lmao

[@TheRelentlessTroll]

I need to know where Michael got that shirt. I tried searching for it just now, and nothing came up :(

[@TheDisarminghinkle]

Too bad we will never get to see Geoff shitting on Gavin in a video.

[@TheCMaxGuy]

When they were talking about Geoff being kidnapped was from the let's play in The Stomping Land, not Savage Lands :P

[@mollycooper4871]

lil j im from boston and i call them barrels too

[@logangood14]

When Ryan starts talking about a table saw...couldn't be more true lol

[@KuroroSama42]

1:36:20 I heard that stabbing in the head is risky, because if you kill it the wrong way (or stab the wrong spot) then the whole thing becomes inedible. That's why you're supposed to just boil it, since that doesn't cause it to have that reaction.

[@Tommyisprettyok]

That was the first time I laughed at something Jack said in ages

[@chriscourtney8371]

Gavin digging can be a Minecraft Immersion

[@cortezbenevidas1345]

One of the best Off Topics

[@Sw4y]

1:11:50 Little did they know, the barrels were right behind them the whole time.

[@petyo1010]

1:47:00 is where the podcast really begins.

[@dericmaurer7255]

That intro was worth so much to me

[@EvilParagon2]

Gavin and Michael Stevens, the new B Team of Mythbusters.

[@dragonpants73]

Remember when Jeremy was going to dye his hair silver and then ended up dying it more purple than before?

[@zacharyfolse7772]

14:00 is a perfect opportunity for gavin to break an ankle xD

[@glassXmoon]

26:02 Michael's Gavin impression is scarily accurate

[@mynamewastaken6879]

So this one was probably my favorite so far haha. Also, in my high school shop class someone was using the table saw and a piece of wood shot at the wall behind the guy and left a rather deep crater in the wall. Those saws are no joke.

[@DDnufcGamer]

"Either that or I'll die" sums up Gavins bets fairly well

[@johnny2003]

I'm always watching this right now. How would I not be watching now?

[@animeequalsweeaboololfucki9670]

John Abbatiello What?

[@johnny2003]

KZbin is cancer Michael constantly says "if you're watching this right now..." I can't possibly not be watching this right now. I'll always be watching what I'm watching now.

[@alice88wa]

John Abbatiello Apparently people do just listen to it as a podcast. So that's why he says it, they release the show on multiple platforms.

[@mclov3ly]

I noticed early into the podcast that when Michael talks, his ears move and now I can't stop looking at his ears when it cuts to him

[@GabePuratekuta]

I don't see it. Then again, he moves his head a lot when he talks

[@YellowRox1000]

That blanket is amazing!! That is so sweet! I wish I had the dedication and ability to make something so great!

[@GabePuratekuta]

Or just something?

[@YellowRox1000]

Gabe Puratekuta well I like to pretend I can already make something...the quality, now that's a different story

[@psychomrw]

If the pilot light keeps going out (the flame) even if you manage to reignite it, chances are the thermo-coupling needs to be replaced. I speak from recent experience.

[@gavinramos4309]

I just saw probably the weirdest ad before the video started. And it was a rooster teeth ad. Something about Game of Thrones being a soap opera.

[@homelybiscuit6136]

As someone from Massachusetts I can confirm we call them trash barrels here.

[@ohIshatmyself]

Would really love to see more ark videos, they're right in that they'll enjoy it a lot more if they know how to play - game is sick.

[@Pallysilverstar]

Having been born and raised in Canada I will say that I have never heard someone with an accent like they portray on television shows and movies, and according to my family growing up I had an insane Yankee accent.

[@ImRanches]

huh what is an american accent to the rest of the wold? southern, hic, west coast?

[@Pallysilverstar]

American's have multiple accents, so do Canadians. I've just never heard a Canadian using the accent's shown on TV, never heard an "aboot" my entire life unless describing footwear.

[@slothfulcobra]

I wonder if the new kid hazing period will ever end for Jeremy.

[@alfiesansom7596]

43:30 He mentions 11 Little Roosters!!!

[@dannutt5701]

I'm still pretty early time to make a joke... Funhaus

[@MuchDRACO]

Daniel Nutt jokes on u theyre pretty funny sonnn

[@fukcup2868]

Daniel Nutt got em

[@at.kafasi.2123]

joke of the week joke joke joke

[@Frank_Ditch]

Funhaus don't make jokes, they work

[@TheAmpharosFreak]

Daniel Nutt no time for funny with all that work to get done.

[@Yerrrrrrrrrr]

Wow 72 likes to 0 dislikes. There's an obvious person not in here.

[@lucasng4712]

Way to spread hate on an innocent video good job!

[@yawarakai_momo6990]

Lucas Ng calm down

[@GarboSweaty]

Geoff?

[@Turo799]

Tegan Adams Ikr? He wrote a whole sentence, dude needs to chill. lol

[@Yerrrrrrrrrr]

Lucas Ng when did people become so sensitive...

[@deadpoolshelby4]

Achievement Hunter makes a movie as a joke, already better quality than those made by Rooster Teeth.

[@thesonofasniper]

The whole 'other way' thing only works in large events like tornados. Not in small events

[@elvinmalihan8148]

I remember Gavin talking about the earthquake machine in the drunk tank

[@Kyndatss]

I think it was Smarter Every Day who had a collab that proved the water draining thing in different hemispheres

[@-Melon-]

A tree surgeon in my town recently had his chainsaw kickback and it just straight up cut his throat

[@yawarakai_momo6990]

I'm fucking ready for 11 little roosters

[@devonsnow8424]

the pockets were originally done without rivets but prospectors would regularly rip their pockets from excessive weight and that's why they were riveted.... so I'm pretty sure Jeremys pockets should hold Gavin

[@josephhuntine7322]

I can't wait for Surgeon Simulator VR

[@Richard_Frost]

Ryan as a Mainer born and raised I can confirm Maine Lobster is where it's at. And in maine, it's super in expensive compared to like anywhere else. I went to Florida for a while and had lobster and first off, it's shit compared to Maine Lobster, and second it was like 3 times or more of the price and I was so displeased I can't even begin to explain :P

[@MrGabocu]

Gavin looks like Arthur Darville as Rip Hunter in this episode

[@Avitiq]

this episode is the most British Gavin has ever been. smol and quiet

[@becauselionsss]

What video did they say Boston Tea Party was from?

[@Issa.nicholas]

33:45 that lie with the smile that hid the truth..

[@FeepingCreature]

The point about the cat is, that quantum stuff isn't a matter of just basic particles, or rather, if you have a quantum problem where a particle is both decayed and not, you can rig it up so that depending on the particle, logically the cat itself has to be both alive and not, so quantum physics can't really be that weird because if particles were that weird even cats would have to be that weird, which is clearly nonsense. (Turns out: it's not.)

[@chosensiren]

what's the time stamp for when michael eats the lime? i listened to the audio version on my way to work this morning and i need to see that lol

[@999GHz]

you guys need to film the vr on a green screen. film it with a controller on the real life camera so the in game camera matches the real life camera. record the foreground layer separately and then merge everything together in after effects. would look awesome and take the production of the vr videos to a when new level.

[@faceless58]

the imdb page for uno the movie is fantastic, kudos to the writer of that
