[@him050]

nav never said they were. Just because one of them is more intelligent, doesn’t mean they’re arguing

[@gravnine]

Luke Sparrow they’re both Cambridge educated and very intelligent, the shows dynamic requires Jimmy to act as a host while the contestants have a bit more freedom to mock and mess around. They’re both fitting into the roles that the audience expects of them and playing off each other’s characters for the sake of banter.

@Yan Terahn I am oh so sorry that as a foreigner I forgot an s in an internet comment section...

[@Whatsuppbuddies]

Languages, like other forms of communication, are simply series of symbols that have consensed meanings. Semiotics, the study of such symbols, extends to speaking as well as writing. Noam Chomsky, a highly prominent linguist, has argued that our capacity for language and meaning-making basically ‘piggybacked’ off of our mathematical capacity. So to answer David’s point in the video: yes, letters are combinations of lines and curves. Numbers are just multiples of one. Words are just sounds. To reference another one of his points, it is as obvious as noting that women become less attractive to men as they age.

5:45 -floppy fringe. 😍 David Mitchell is the kind of sweet guy you gently insist is "just friends" until you see him one day and he's tidied himself up a bit and he is with a beautiful woman who adores him and you just sigh "damn it". 😞

[@DeviantFish]

I've watched this more than two dozen times and it hasn't gotten any less funny

You have an obsession But I think it’s a healthy one 😄

01:58 David making jokes out of Peano arithmetic. This is very high-level play

[@sandb232]

David basically enunciated the truest and most important theory of maths, and got a big laugh!

[@cyanhallows7809]

except it’s literally not

[@dsimi415]

It's no a²+b²=c² though

[@sonasp1961]

David Mitchell needs his own podcast

No one else could pull of the toenail clippings bit, David it made so funny

"But surely David, you're not that pedantics..." Jimmy was lucky David had left his grammar gun in the other pants...
