Nick Offerman Plays Smell That Wood! | NBC's Making It

[@AznJsn82091]

I need a podcast of Nick Offerman just talking about anything. Literally anything.

[@HavokBWR]

Hes on Conan needs a friend. Just the one though, or maybe two i dunno.

[@EonBM]

Get his audio books❤

[@brianrobinson8903]

I will never get enough of these 2 together

[@VeginMatt]

The game show I never thought I needed...but I could probably spend an hour watching an expert smell things related to their field of work.

[@DanielSjostrom]

Let's just hope they don't invite Ron Jeremy

[@debbiedoodiedandi]

He said "unguents" - love this guy!

[@royal_wolf7485]

*Watching Nick aggressively rubbing his wood* ....you got this

[@BaldursPicketFence]

Lol Amy asked him if he wanted to be alone under her breath, 😂.

[@heyb6268]

As a woodworker that’s pretty damn impressive. I mean the pine and cedar would be pretty easy. Especially the cedar for me personally I love cedar. But he’s good!

[@ericmatthews3780]

Walnut is also VERY distinct. Easy to identify if you've worked with it even a couple times. Plus one of my favorite wood smells.

[@RyneMurray23]

The noise he makes after smelling is hilarious 🤣🤣

[@danielcrane7374]

So Nick Offerman is actually Ron Swanson

[@the_sockdolager]

They modeled a lot of Ron Swanson off of Nick Offerman's personality. He owns a wood shop and sells furniture (although I'm not sure where he sells it otherwise I would have myself a "Swanson" chair by now.) And the idea for Duke Silver was started by a conversation that the director had with Nick Offerman, about the potential of Ron Swanson being a secret jazz musician, to which he replied "I play the saxophone" and thus the legend was born.

[@yalz1851]

Apparently they just took each actors traits and turned it up a notch. Same with Chris

[@JKSSubstandard]

@@the_sockdolager I thought I read once that they actually filmed the bits of Ron's shop inside nicks shop. They just added the oiled rags

[@the_sockdolager]

@@JKSSubstandard I've heard that too. I love fun facts like that

[@spencerlipozovic3752]

he's like Ron Swanson but better (not a libertarian)

[@cpruns4501]

How does this only have 200K views? That was gold:)

[@CatchReleaseRepeat]

I work an office job and I keep a small square of 220 and scraps of various types of wood at my desk. When I'm having a rough day and things are stressing me out, I pick up a block of walnut or cedar, give it a quick sand and sniff my troubles away. I love wood

[@poppyseed1987]

I’ve never seen this show. If it’s about Nick Offerman smelling wood I’m in.

[@Fropals1]

Bring this show back!

[@Cyril29a]

"Wood you smell that? " is a much better title

[@shartsmcginty8056]

1:52 - Ray Stantz moment. "Listen! ...you smell something?"

[@frontenaccycle]

They did this on an episode of "Home Improvement". During an episode of "Tool Time" Tim had Al smell wood to determine which one it was. Al was getting them all right and so Tim put his stinky sock on the last one and Al couldn't figure it out.

[@CarlitoJr408]

yuup

[@bradleyvantassal8328]

As soon as this came up as a recommended video, that's the first thing that popped in my head. "I don't know Tim, smells like some kind of fungus"

[@fakeascanbe423]

Al wore that same shirt

[@far22186]

I was just thinking the same thing

[@jaimelopez2216]

Nick Offerman is the best. He should do the same challenge but with some of the woods that Wyrmwood uses to build their dice vaults, and MGT's.

[@jordankelley8894]

This is the crossover I need. I salute you!

[@doctormixup5388]

Such a fantastic smell walking into the storage section of a woodshop. Or just after sawing. I am very partial to juniper. It has such a distinct smell. Like high quality butter mixed with a green peppercorns, a little bit of moss and that slightly soapy pine sap note. Amazing aroma.

[@rsoko07]

This show MADE sense, so sad it was canceled. The world needs creativity, puns, and good story lines. I wish it could at least continue on Peacock

[@eventingirl001]

wait, it was canceled??? I loved this show!!!

[@JMcLeodKC711]

Leslie Knope …..future POTUS

[@Might_T]

It got cancelled???

[@akhilnair1137]

It had 7 great seasons, and a really good finale, which is more than what most sitcoms get.

[@audri8152]

their covid reuinion episode via zoom was a delight!

[@AlRoderick]

Kind of shocked they didn't do maple, back when I worked in a cabinet shop I did actually notice how freshly cut Maple had the faintest hint of syrup about it.

[@Zelapher]

too easy i imagine is why they didnt do it

[@curtissflamence]

It absolutely does

[@TheFreeBro]

“Can you sand right there?” “That’s what she said” can someone explain how that’s funny.

[@Hellboy700]

More of this, please and thank you. Can we cast them in a new show already??!

[@JohannesWiberg]

I have good news and bad news.

[@daramaccarthy]

Thats what she said in response to ‘it was a wet year’ was snot worthy - i nearly choked (that’s what she said) 🤐🤣

[@yadisappointedmama7366]

I need more of them

[@theduke1624]

Anyone else half expecting Tim Allen to show up and put his freshly worn sock on one of the blocks to throw Nick of the sent?

[@gregorymoore2877]

"I don't think so, Tim." - Ron Swanson probably.

[@maggiejackson2160]

I could watch just this concept for about 2.85 hours.

[@keithklassen5320]

Letting him touch the wood, feel the weight, texture, hardness.... Honestly that's probably more informative than the smell.

[@sirbrewzalot]

Pine and cedar have a distinctive smell. Walnut has the faintest whisp of...well...walnuts.

[@Ryan5Man]

A lot of woods have distinct smells. Hickory smells a little bit peppery and poplar smells a little bit like cake.

[@Marshallgill]

What a great team!

[@pseudonym9215]

I need part 2

[@FragrantVirgin]

The victory emoting at the end absolutely killed me🤣🤣🤣

[@kapla2004]

I hope they are doing another season

[@Jack.TheHat]

Nick Offerman… a true mans man

[@gregorymoore2877]

"When I smell wood, it is the wood that is scared" - Ron Swanson probably. Another couple facts about mahogany: 1. It doesn't have a strong scent, apparently. 2. It's what they should make those sticks out of that doctors stick in your mouth when they tell you to say "Ah." And Leslie stole Michael's joke. Twice. 😉

[@trevorhegstrom2816]

I have a mahogany guitar. Every time I pull it out I have to smell it. It smells so good.

[@mk71618]

​@@trevorhegstrom2816 what kind of guitar? I'm guessing a Martin or some other high-end acoustic with a thin satin finish?

[@MrLuffy9131]

They should make a home improvement/woodworking show and just make a spin off of Parks and Rec since he's basically the same character lol

[@amdog5055]

Also smell my wood is a type of fighting chant he would verbalize

[@devenb1218]

Just based off geographical location and experiences I could probably smell pine, white oak, and ash. Haven't used much else in my life though

[@Bubu567]

If it smells really good, like hamster bedding, it's cedar, or juniper.

[@Iamrightyouarewrong]

I'm shocked by the Mahogany.

[@CaptainJY01]

If he tasted it, probably could’ve identified it

[@eriksports]

This is incredible

[@jollyrancher5501]

this is great bro 😭😭😭😭

[@nicksheehan8777]

Would have been very surprised if he had gotten mahogany or teak. There’s really nothing distinctive about the smell of mahogany and teak just isn’t used commonly enough by most wood workers to have left an impression. Cedar would be the easiest. Walnut with a little sanding would be relatively easy (even easier if you go by taste). Pine isn’t so difficult except that it could be pretty easily mistaken for something like Douglas fir.

[@cemacem4102]

We need this longeeerrrr,please?

[@mikegorrell]

“My olfactory may be somewhat occluded”

[@caseyb1316]

I always felt like mahogany smells the most out of all woods, I’m surprised he didn’t get that one.

[@joshyaash]

Nah, cedar is the strongest smell

[@awsomater1991]

@@joshyaash I have cut so many cedar posts for decking I think I could spot it by smell just as fast.

[@gregorymoore2877]

Apparently, even Tammy 2 is more smellable than mahogany? 🤔

[@trevorhegstrom2816]

Less than cedar, but my guitar is mahogany, and has a great scent.

[@patrickdean4853]

Genuine Mahogany has a very faint smell, as does African Mahogany. The mystery is how he missed the Teak. It is loaded with oils and the smell is unmistakable.

[@thornstrikesback]

This was a skit on Home Improvement back in the 90s when Tim had Al blindfolded and he had to smell the wood and guess. I wonder if any inspiration came from that?
