[@zomfgroflmao1337]

It has to be some sort of crime to have these people on there and not let them talk.

[@BKS0]

zomfgroflmao1337 Really disappointing

[@SaurabhSingh-mi9in]

IKR

[@AmalgraemeV]

Honestly.

[@PeterStellenberg]

I think an interview with those two could have been more mind blowing.

[@maxwellsequation4887]

Stephen: So, what's yoir favourite dish? Micheal: A day old energy drink and a year old sandwitch... BEST COMBO

[@Cylume.]

1:03 The real amazing thing about this is Adam played guitar and ran out incognito in a cosplay dinosaur costume, At The Same Time!!!

[@jeniferdivine]

the REAL UNamazing thing is that Adam was NOT playing a guitar, he was playing a ukelele!

[@manusjiedowen-ck12a18]

i want the shit you're having

[@Peacecraft117]

Cylume Dinosaurs don’t exist it’s all leftist agenda

[@suzawilo]

Peacecraft117 Agenda doesn't exist. It's just dinosaur propaganda.

[@ridwana4037]

Hey, vsauce. Michael here. Oh wait. Wrong channel.

[@EcceJack]

I've never seen Michael running around so much xD

[@Link122]

Hey midgets, your dominatrix here. Oh wait, correct channel

[@FlameSoulis]

Actually, during the show, he does that.

[@10storm97]

The two sex gods are at it again!

[@gabelogan56]

I didn't see Kari Byron anywhere.... the word Sex never entered my head.

[@tmkc1372]

The show is called ‘Brain candy’, or is it? *cue vsauce music*

[@appledough3843]

Why do we poop? *cue Vsauce music*

[@NewMessage]

I bet Donny was clapping along and bouncing in his chair until someone leaned in and told him he was learning.

[@guthax30]

Eddie Panedi Corporations are made up of people, man. Cold-hearted sociopathic people, but still people. 👍

[@bradsuarez2683]

Eddie Panedi Go live in the African jungle then. May I remind you that everything involved with your comment was made possible by a corporation. From Stephen's shoes to the statellite that sent it.

[@bradsuarez2683]

gabelogan56 Well what is the solution to corporations then? Too many people complain without offering a feasible solution.

[@Grizabeebles]

Eddie Panedi -- There are a plethora of scientific studies that show that around 1% of people are psychopaths but that number rises to more than 14% among senior executives and CEOs. The irony is that psychopaths are better at making difficult or morally dubious choices but that the companies they run make about 7% less money overall because they are incapable of genuine trust and cooperation. However "I'm always going to argue for me and you can go to hell" became normalized, it needs to stop. That kind of "winner-take-all" attitude leads to a world where morality is determined by a stack of bills or the barrel of a gun. And that's not going to be as great for anyone as all the Ayn Rand fans make it out to be.

[@normantrombon]

Grizabeebles ...could someone tell me what relevance Ayn Rand suddenly seems to have to the trumpy bunch? She seems to be mentioned a lot lately, I’m still not sure why.

[@ClaimingCowbellDRUMS]

HEY! LATE SHOW! Stephen here! WHERE is the pee pee tape? *music starts playing*

[@gurpreetsingh793]

+Zephaa First let's explore the origins of the alphabet "P"

[@neku2741]

this is pee, its orange, just like the person who loves them.

[@diamondsmasher]

Pee..... ter Pan. Is a fictional character. But perhaps a good representation of what can happen when a child runs things. We may never know.

[@Dingdongtime]

I'm shocked by all the comments saying this was cringy or bad, I had a blast watching some of my favorite brains putting on a fun show. Everything they touch is gold.

[@hankolijo]

We're still waiting on those spit facts, Michael

[@krekcabnow2910]

It’s great how dad like they are.

[@intoxicary]

*Ages 12 and under. I went to a brain candy live show because I was a fan of both Adam and Vsauce. Entire show felt like a 5th grade science field trip. Read a blurb that said it was a combination of Blue man group and TED talk. Wow is that overstated. Seriously, unless you're bringing kids don't bother.

[@jarehelt]

Michael: On the count of three, name your favorite dinosaur. Don't even think about it. Just name it. Ready? One, two, three. Adam , Michael: Incisivosaurus! Adam: Favorite non-pornographic magazine to masturbate to. Adam, Michael: Quanta magazine! Michael: If you were a chick, who's the one guy you'd sleep with? Adam, Michael: Neil Degrasse Tyson! Adam: [stomps foot] What?! Michael: Did we just become best friends?! Adam: Yep!

[@TheValorious]

Saw the whole show live when they came to Cleveland. Awesome performance. The song is a recap to their show. So it was a little out of place but still good.

[@N3ur0m4nc3r]

I have watched all three of these dudes for soooo long. Good to see them together.

[@mexkato]

three of my favorite persons together, the hype!

[@jacobm8242]

I saw the show in Norfolk during February. Was great

[@khanhhien06]

my 2 favorites

[@pitpao]

Aww man... I was really looking forwards to this until I heard the music.

[@Jason-hd9mk]

IT IS NICE TO SEE THEM HERE!

[@OliverPewPewPew]

god! Such a treat!

[@danielnatzke6733]

AWESOME

[@warpspeedchic6932]

Wait can we talk about how Michael did that ping pong ball trick at the end

[@eminemfan50098]

This was awesome!

[@anauli]

This is great

[@DeathBringer769]

I have almost the same exact ukulele that Adam is using here. Extra long, electric acoustic, and with a cutaway. Got mine in Hawaii ;)

[@AmusementLabs]

Best. Song. Ever.

[@johnspace4662]

Michael is like my favorite person ever!!

[@CodPatrol]

What the hell's this? Thought it was an interview

[@mcnutty97]

I loved this

[@ksplyff]

they are a perfect match.

[@btc54723]

Brain Candy live was such an amazing show live

[@gumunduringigumundsson9344]

Fun show I wanna go see them. 🍀❤🎸

[@Jemppu]

No WAY! Mr. Savage on Colbert? My KZbin realities are mixing! Sweeeet! :D

[@GrandiaKnight]

Please bring Brain Candy to the UK. Please!

[@asadrafi3577]

They are like, coolest nerds you'll ever see!!

[@briellesunpeak3875]

I see them in January ahhhh in Sydney I'm so happy

[@seansmiddy9139]

Brielle Sunpeak I saw them last night in Boston, Mass, It’s awesome!

[@rainofrest7778]

how was it

[@Neocaridina]

Haha Stephen is bored as heck in the back.

[@boabab95]

He's watching the screen embedded in his desk.

[@connievanvorhis]

Gahhhhhhh three of my fav people I don’t know all together

[@Stephen_Th]

Vsauce ❤️

[@Hagenfors]

haha love it how the audience think they're clapping on the beat

[@EldritchTeacup]

Hah hah! Awesome!

[@froehlic004]

I miss MythBusters so much. I felt like I learned a lot from that show. Hell if I remember most of it now, but still quite entertaining and informative.

[@EvanKepler]

And as always, thanks for watching

[@stevengeorges9046]

I always thought that Vsauce's Michael Stevens reminded me of (and looked like) Adam Savage. Very cool that they are now teaming up! :-)

[@EmployeeJoe630]

Adam Savage, Vsauce and Colbert in the same room? Say WAAAAAAAAAAH

[@jimmyhayden5292]

so much better than other songs now days.

[@tvremote9394]

Hey late show! Stephen here. Where are Donald Trump's tax return? *Music starts playing*

[@diamondsmasher]

What if there aren't any tax returns..... at all? In all of history? What if tax returns are an illusion to trick your brain into thinking you've accomplished something during the past year, when in fact you've been in a coma the whole time?

[@jeffjberry]

Somebody give these guys a room

[@dylanrace8765]

This is a really good world we live in

[@JoshuaPlays99]

Well this was a pleasant surprise.

[@aletcetera9883]

Did anyone else come to look for the microphones that Adam put in their glasses on tested?

[@MadameOncaTarot]

ADORABLE

[@yog4ever]

Hey Vsauce, Michael here !! :) . Michael has come a long way ...

[@kneau]

Kids in the Hall: Brain Candy (1996)

[@Vikas.03]

Adam already has a 'Savage' ahead of his name😂

[@jamescopenhaver720]

Two memes came together and became even more powerful

[@brycewalburn3926]

Yeeeeaaahhhhh....

[@weeman234G]

Hey that's pretty good

[@kaecilius2656]

Mythbusters!

[@brianbotello5759]

How I missed this???

[@ArkaidDeims]

Awww. This is adorable. I think I will take my three year old to the clown show....

[@upaya30]

Don't clap, people. Please.

[@lynxprime1778]

even after 4 years it doesnt get old, amazing

[@shadebug]

His name isn't Michael Stevens. Michael is his surname and his first name is VSauce

[@hustler3of4culture3]

Thought it was going to be kids in the hall!

[@socxan]

So, that was a bit like a performance at a child's sixth birthday party.

[@AudoricArt]

YEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSS

[@tandokunogirl]

I thought this had the Kids in the Hall in it. That's why I clicked on it.

[@direskys]

Damn, was hoping for Kids In The Hall.

[@denischen7541]

sauce is all over the stage

[@Drarack]

My subscription box keeps leaking into this show.

[@MrHarsh3600]

Is Savage his real last name?

[@jester_cmd9877]

LolGuy yes

[@neku2741]

yes, SAVAGE his middle name is careful

[@Roks559]

Hey, Late Show, Michael here

[@LithiumThiefMusic]

oh no, why in the world did they do a song instead of an interview? that hurts me a little, they're both so clever. it was a cool song and demonstration, but I'd have preferred to see an interview with them and Colbert

[@TheQuoteandQuill]

VSauce!!!!!! Love it!

[@knivesout33]

An intelligent Phoebe Buffay

[@TheGeniuschrist]

my man needs a monitor.

[@TaYLtheWhAle]

North America 2018 tour - cancelled :/ It's crazy that they took on this PR gig and cancelled so shortly after without announcing anything...

[@jusTRiPP]

Here before a million!

[@LarryPanozzo]

Here before a thousand

[@wulfsaga2]

instant-o-priest at 3:10

[@peterlinn9815]

I like VSauce, but is that what the whole Brain Candy show is like?

[@ronfhs58]

Bars

[@Zgoose]

Where are your fingers?

[@salilbhatnagar]

hey Vsauce, Michael here!

[@aduffield]

I hoped that this was a musical version of the Kids in the Hall movie "Brain Candy" - sadly not :-(

[@Phi1618033]

I thought cocaine was brain candy.

[@AuroraAquarius]

Yay! VSauce!

[@SvupperZ]

I can't really believe that this is going to be the format of the show. It's just Adam singing while Michael performs elementary school science stuff and tricks? I feel like they are more creative than that. This was kind of awkward to watch, poorly paced, and didn't really teach much of anything. Hope the show is different. Love these guys and I feel like the combination of them could be something really great.

[@MisterTingles]

it's the closing song after the rest of the show has concluded. two of the most prolific science communicators teaming up for a touring show, i'm sure thinking about it a little, you's truthfully see no reason to judge so hastily. besides, the slightly awkward style is on brand for both of them, par for the course in every way.

[@SvupperZ]

They should have mentioned that - and probably gone with something of a more epic style than this to advertize for their show. 'Judging 'might be a bit strong used in that context, 'evalutate' seems more fitting. I was evaluating the nature of the show based off this performance, which I assume is representative of the show. And I'm still excited about the show and their work together, of course. As I said in my original comment, I assume that there's more to it than this. And I'm all for awkwardness, the point here was that I didn't feel entertained. It wasn't a clever or purposeful awkwardness, it was because I felt like they were making fools of themselves on that stage - which made me cringe.

[@danielhenderson6384]

I saw their show when it toured the US the first time, and it was done very well. Each of the things Michael demonstrated during this song were things they talked and interacted with the crowd earlier in the show for about 10-15 minutes each. I think they likely could've picked something different to make their pitch on LSSC, but I think it would've been difficult for them to cut it down into

[@SvupperZ]

That's very good to hear!

[@JLPicard1648]

-that was kind of the point-

[@GuyCN]

Nerds.... My people

[@boneykingofsomewhere]

Hi Michael, Vsauce here!

[@shawon265]

Hey! Hey!! Hey!!! Michael! Remember us? The Vsauce fans? :| Aren't u gonna make any more videos for us as I dive deep into my thoughts and fall asleep? Well... it was a great time

[@bigd1179]

Man, Michael can really haul ass.

[@LiveErrors]

Vsauce! Michael here

[@TheCalenestel]

As a history teacher (meaning I've done scientifical, historical research as part of my professional degree)... I feel kind of left out here. :(

[@cosmikyogi2514]

Two of the most respected and intelligent people i've seen. Spreading scientific knowledge to the next generation ::)

[@JohnyBuzzkillKidd]

*embarrasing themselves

[@cpt_nordbart]

Tested Sauce?

[@muralibond1]

Hey vsauce, Michael here

[@sabihbinmasood]

Michael is the biggest meme

[@strengthbuild]

this is like, folk punk but nerdy.

[@neurop0d]

So, folk punk? (Not a diss, I like folk punk, ha ha)
