[@AchtungBeccaC]

The greatest sub-genre of SOTWE is “Andy walks by at the precise weirdest moment to do so.”

[@devinco1]

That "regular adult" moment is one of my favorite inside jokes of all time.

[@WildfireMagni]

Not sure why, they were just doing regular adult things.

[@coyoteone6197]

"I'm a normal adult man!"

[@green_dragon_knight]

“Luke and Ellen smell the perfume of Neeeum, the new global sonic identity of F1, from Mike’s elbow” - ah yes, another completely normal Show of the Weekend 😂

[@Angharan]

They're just Normal Adult People doing Normal Things.

[@perkkie]

@@khamjaninja. i have no idea if you're for real or troll and i love this doubt much

[@codmanout9861]

Apparently F1 copyright struck their own channel, because "Neeeum" on the F1 YT channel has been removed

[@waylandli24]

"Yeah, that's the noise they make" Had me dying less than a minute in

[@TimEd.o7o7]

absolutely briliant opener

[@coyoteartist]

Yet, they failed to identify that neeeum is the sound an F1 car makes passing the camera man's mike. So they don't know all the sounds a car makes.

[@WizzyMcWizzyton]

Less than 10 seconds, really!

[@micahnewby7964]

@coyoteartist but...... All was never the point. It's not a car sounds quiz

[@coyoteartist]

@@micahnewby7964 I didn't say it was, it was just funny to me. I guess I expected Mike to get it.

[@mar_speedman]

My favorite part of Show of the Weekend is always Andy passing by awkwardly and pretending he didn't see whatever weird mess everyone's getting into lol

[@willowweedsYT]

You just know he goes out of his way to pass by them 😂

[@dannogsus2184]

And sometimes he cant help himself and has to come intrude into what ever bu****it is going on

[@jeffreywells1832]

Andy staring solemnly at a whiteboard with the words "we are a gaming channel" written in red marker; expressionlessly, he uncaps a marker and underlines each word and then stares for a minute or so longer

[@aratanaru6200]

Sometimes mike does that, but he is not passing awkwardly but just being visibly worried and concerned

[@mar_speedman]

@@jeffreywells1832 And of course they never get the point lol

[@theomnitorium7476]

Walking into a meeting smelling of five different 60$ F1 fragrances has big 80 wolves coat energy.

[@nramos33]

"A Christmas scent from an unliked uncle" lol Andy shoots and doesn't miss lol

[@ethanlappin]

I'm forever in love with Oxboxtra's ability to really take the piss

[@dominateeye]

That's the next F1 scent.

[@toymachine2328]

@@dominateeye Seems more appropriate to horse racing

[@micahnewby7964]

It's appropriate to Mike via Egbert, so we can allow it

[@starkiller014]

Andy's deeply accurate and powerful burn, *with no context of what's going on*, is a testament of how clever he is.

[@theyorkrose5274]

Pre-pandemic denial: I'm a normal adult man! Post-pandemic acceptance: I'm smelling the official sound of racing from a man's elbow, what of it?

[@MegaHentai00]

In my fantasy, Luke and Ellen didn't tell Mike they were planning this today. The poor guy was just working away at his computer, when suddenly: "Mike, could we borrow you in the studio for a minute?"

[@stone5against1]

It would be great if it were like this whenever they need someone for shenanigans (but sadly it's probably not)

[@thewingedporpoise]

to be fair I don't think there'd be a lot of difference with Mike

[@FictionWriter95]

In my headcanon, Andy had the day off but came into the office when he sensed there was some Oxtra nonsense going on

[@DeLaKleve]

“The crumbs from Mike’s table, to me, are quite delicious” I’m dead 😂

[@HollyriousYT]

I love that Andy doesn't hesitate or question it and just goes straight in for a mystery sniff.

[@dallydaydream]

Honestly the thing I'm having the most trouble getting over (out of a myriad of things I'm having trouble getting over) is the description of lavender as "thrilling". I adore the scent of lavender, but it's a *well-known soporific*

[@thejason755]

Mike “I’M SO FUCKING THRILLED BY GERANIUM AND LAVENDER RNNNNN!!!!”

[@gremlin4304]

I don't give a fig about racing, but I love listening to people talk about what they enjoy. This is fun

[@Zoso14892]

The only thing better than listening to someone talk about something they are passionate about, is listening to someone talk about something they are newly passionate about.

[@nicocrestmere9688]

Hear hear

[@Frogglin]

Same. car games? Bored to snores. Listening to people who love car games talk about why they love them? More please, yes.

[@lizabee484]

My absolutely favorite people on this earth are those who are excited to ramble about the things they’re passionate, but even MORE excited to listen to others ramble on about the things they’re passionate about. Chef’s kiss. Best kind of humans. And I’m so thrilled to see many of them here in this comment section ^_^

[@MSte21]

Preach. Especially when they are very good at the talking.

[@bennettdarling7245]

I'm in the US and the way you all said Lynx coupled by how the bottle looked I immediately was like oh that has to be the Axe equivalent

[@baseballjustin5]

100% lol Same bottle. Different branding lol

[@coaxtl1413]

Same here, but Canada. Same font!

[@stone5against1]

Definitely, and how everyone knew the smell, it had to be a popular brand

[@MrSpikethefirst]

just had to look it up and its the same makers too lmao

[@VonBlade]

Andy coming in at the end and being pithy but hilarious is gorgeous. A burn so ferocious that somewhere a copywriter's malibu home went up in flames.

[@NimbleTack]

I'm sure that Mike must be delighted to have a video entirely dedicated to his citrus woody thrust-master.

[@jonathanhope3672]

This deserves more likes

[@Giga-lemesh]

😂😂😂

[@newb13fy]

Luke slowly becoming a sim racing nerd something that I would never, EVER predict. I mean, I'm already surprised with all the F1 stuff, but iRacing?! Mike, you absolute legend.

[@akmal94ibrahim]

Yea, I'm shocked by iRacing. That's some hardcore simracing stuff. I've been playing with the wheel for years and I still haven't tried iRacing.

[@Minilena]

I will blame his becoming a dad :3

[@dominateeye]

Mike and Luke discussing F1 always gives me a thrilling citrus woody.

[@dominateeye]

Guy-ic wood? F1.

[@dominateeye]

Yes, my woody is indeed charged with energy. I have a million of these and no plans to stop.

[@coyoteartist]

And hear I thought this was a family comment section.

[@pmonday]

I laughed very hard at this.

[@D.J.Berryman]

Why can I only like this once?

[@ELiiSE_YT]

The absolute cocktail of expression that was Andy's "Oh!"

[@Nednarb]

As soon as Luke quoted Mike saying, "If you want to get REALLY crazy..." I was like, "... Are we about to talk about iRacing??" And they DID. AAND we got a whole 10 minutes of delicious vegetable nom noms! As someone who has hundreds of hours in iRacing myself and loves it to death, it was an absolute joy hearing Luke share his excitement over it. It can very easily get wildly expensive, but oh man is it SO much fun if you have the spare time to commit to it.

[@skipskylark9525]

I feel sympathy for Mike's wife already 😅

[@memashes]

Luke's journey from complete disinterest to full blown racing nerd is one of my favourite things ever. OX track day in the future?

[@oriolgonzalez9328]

@@kadosho02 Andy, for the sheer sarcastic energy he would bring.

[@Amaritudine]

This is the quintessential Show of the Weekend experience: relatable enthusiasm about a niche gaming-adjacent topic, a surprise appearance by an esoteric product, and a gentle but thorough roasting of said product for all its undeniable silliness.

[@AdamusPrime24]

Hands down, the greatest cold opening gag ever XD

[@adriankerrison]

Ellen's laugh after "Neeeum is the new sonic identity for F1" is the new sonic identity for Oxtra

[@Lisa-zz5iw]

I am a mature adult and I will NOT giggle at thrustmaster!!! ... 🤣🤣🤣 Now back to video which will be awesome 😁 thank you so much for all your hard work and always making us laugh 😁😍

[@baxter22071990]

I was half expecting a joke about helmets somewhere in the vid

[@ellathompson6052]

I’m glad someone else mentioned it! 😂

[@Strigulino]

I had a Thrustmaster joystick so I was immune to that, but creased up at the thrilling citrus woody.

[@maddison5697]

No interest in racing, but watching someone talk about something they're super into is always brilliant- and watching Mike get sprayed with Car Smell is even brilliant-er!

[@SNICKERFACED]

i do not care about cars in the slightest but i absolutely WILL watch every minute of this because i love watching them talk about things they love. I'm like a parent watching their children from a park bench. I just like seeing them enjoy themselves. Have fun, kids.

[@greyzonefilm]

That cutaway to Ellen's face as Luke was talking was pure gold.

[@bwilhelm8232]

No okay I genuinely loved the I-Racing discussion! It’s something I’ve never heard about and probably never would have heard of, and I genuinely love hearing about a new thing I know nothing about!!!

[@TheNosnets]

Me too. The Internet is packed with these little communities who are all insulated from the rest by a shared love of the obscure thing. The game that comes to mind for me is Space Station 13/14. I saw a video of someone role-playing in a weird 2D space game and it turns out that there's a tiny dedicated community all playing this game religiously to the point of knowing all the deepest technical aspects of the games mechanics. I have a couple of hundred hours in SS13/14 now and I still cannot perform most tasks but the tight community makes the RP and chaos aspects much more fun because you just know the only people seeking out this experience are like minded and interested in it.

[@DogcrotchHell]

I love hearing people talk about things they are getting into and passionate about, and watching Luke's passion for racing develop is the most unexpected and cool arc outsidextra has had in awhile! Don't apologize Luke, your passion is contagious!

[@cargath]

"A burst of freshness" from leather (dead animals), lavender (often used at funerals) and patchouli (famously used by goths) xD

[@Icam_here]

i can't help but wonder, if Mike knew that giving that racing rig to Luke would lead to being sprayed with 5 racing scents would he still of given it away or not, or possibly given it away sooner

[@deadlymelody27]

"So proud of you both". How does Mike, someone who in his nature doesnt seem massively chaotic, manage to turn up the energy to even more chaotic with his presence 🤣

[@GriffinWolf]

I'm sorry, have you not watched Mike before? He is Chaos Incarnate.

[@fadhelfarras1175]

19:32 I think it's a tribute to the legendary "neeow" guy from 2018 series in CotA, there was a guy who found the live F1 mice feed and just made "neeow" sound directly to the mic

[@chriscoombes6751]

Loooove Show Of The Weekend!- & this one had me in absolute stitches!! 😂😂😂 Hands up: who else looked up 'Neeeum' right away?? Apologies if you said it guys - but disclaimer: the lovely little £1 sample set does come with a 4 quid shipping cost! Also speaking of subscriptions- a certain major online shopping site sells these fragrances at a lot less than £60!

[@benjamincook8479]

Raises hand

[@djashley2002]

I'm pretty sure that there was a moment when Luke was waffling on about iRacing where you could see Ellen clearly thinking "Isn't there a new edition of Pokémon magazine we could be reviewing instead of this?".

[@looler12123]

Show of the Weekend's back! I've missed it the last few weeks!

[@tyrannicpuppy]

That's why the figured it was a safe bet for this topic. Everyone is so glad SOTWe is back they'll sit through any topic just for the benefit of it being back.

I couldn't stop laughing out loud at the terrible Italian translation it's brilliant definitely brings imagery no one would expect who is Angelica, I loved this so much thank you

[@armelior4610]

I'd never thought I'd see a video about this game my dad is a biiiig fan of. Now a lot of people have shared my experience of listening about it in excrutiating details ^^ I'm disappointed that the "F1 fragrances" are boring perfumes and not various mixes of motor oil and burning rubber, but "Neeeum" is a brilliant name

[@bett431]

Luke describing wanting to stay away from other drivers because they are trouble and might hit you is one of the main reasons why I switched to Rally as a virtual driver. No one who can crash into me and I can focus on being as fast as possible.

[@MSte21]

I am not remotely into cars or racing, but Luke's sheer enthusiasm and love for his new passion is far more engaging than just talking about video games out of some sense of obligation.

[@MetalheadAndy25]

Classic stuff, Luke defending his new passion while Ellen tries to keep interested, poor Mike being harassed by the kids again and a great Andy cameo. Perfection

[@andrewchandler625]

Great to see you guys back :) Always leave a smile on my face :) Racing is a big passion of mine so I enjoyed this!

[@Carrrnage]

Such a nice start to the weekend, good to see you two back. Woooo!😁

[@durdleburdle3521]

Luke, don't apologize for telling us about something you're obviously passionate about. It was amazing to hear of your exploits into the racing sim world! I hope you have more iracing progress to report soon.

[@RijaMo]

Luke likes souls games, likes cars. Did Mike bit him or something? Edit: Luke nerding out about sim racing is high quality content. Please don't get discouraged from obscure topics like this. It's awesome.

[@l0stndamned]

Carbon Reign sound like one of those games that comes out not long after a new console is released in a half-hearted attempt to show that an obscure developer can handle the new tech.

[@AceRide]

F1, where rain is salty and lavender is thrilling

[@johnsharplin]

It is incredibly fascinating to me that Luke isn't really into cars but is this into racing

[@ellathompson6052]

Whenever they’ve said “Lynx Africa” in the past I’ve always thought it was “Link’s” like the game character. I think I like that better

[@fahfahfred]

They've been doing this for how many years and they still come out with some bangers lol

[@maxvel0city906]

Love how Mike has slowly indoctrinated Luke to all things cars/Motorsport. 🏎️ With the help of Jane's experimental subliminal messaging of course.😱

[@gruggerduggerhoose]

The sim racing rabbit hole claims another victim lol

[@coyoteartist]

No doubt

[@akmal94ibrahim]

Mike was the one who started Luke into Dark Souls, who then infected Ellen, and now even Andy is playing Elden Ring. And now Mike turned Luke into racing, with Luke seemingly dragging Ellen into it. Next thing you know, we get an Ellen's Racing Academy. Lol

[@StraightOuttaJarhois]

Just want to voice my appreciation for the Mario Kart 64 menu music in the background for the first half of the video. Excellently chosen.

[@PLAYER_42069]

Mike has done his job well and recruited Luke into the cult of simulation. Now, he will ride with us forever, Shiny and Chrome! I laughed out loud when Luke said, Lynx might want to check the factory for a missing barrel of their product because a lot of times major companies license their products to other brands under another name. So, it probably is just Lynx under the F1 name - lol. Also, "Nyooom" is the proper sound you make to mimic cars racing by at high speed. Get it right, Lynx... Er, I mean, F1...

[@Binary-]

I like the cut after they called for Mike, because it's leaves room for the interpretation that it took quite a lot of haggling and convincing to get Mike to actually join them

[@bilbo_t_baggins2762]

That was fun. I'd like to see a sequel-maybe there is such a thing as dungeons and dragons inspired perfumes that could be sprayed on Ellen? Or video game inspired scents?

[@mediarare2386]

Thanks to you guys and your charming commentary I actually got into game genres I never was really interested in, like horror or racing. It doesn't make me a fan but watching your videos full of passion, humor and fun makes me want to try out those games at least once.

[@huppaduppa]

I just got here and I REALLY hope there's a "no Mikes were harmed in the making of this video" somewhere in there

Luke getting more and more into motorsports has been great to see unfold. They've been some of my favourite videos this year.

I'm 2 Minutes into the video so far and the Nonverbal energy of the two already gives me so much joy

[@johannesbragelmann6629]

My main takeaway from this video up until now (having just learned about Neeeum) is that, Mike and Luke are all in for the Motorsport but are reasonable enough adults for giving not a single s*it for FIA shenanigans 😂

Oddly enough this episode hits different. Never expected to share that feeling of shaving down lap times with oxtra, but this made my week. 1000s of laps around Road America in Wisconsin with my c7zo6 and yamaha r1m. Almost nothing is as satisfying as perfecting a corner and shaving time. Hint.... crashing your body into the ground isn't good for lap times. Love the content guys. Even last weeks mine skit had me laughing for an hr straight.

[@honteebee]

please never apologize for talking about the game you've been playing in your own time before getting to the quiz segment...might even read some comments after that and a......let's call it art corner, perhaps? (I'm kidding, any sotwe in any format is a good thing and please don't overburden yourselves with more work, but I definitely would love more casual chat over any game--ellen talking about the onion hotel mobile game was still one of the sotwe classics imo, so.....yeah, any game!)

Oh dang, poor Mike getting sprayed by fragrances for our entertainment, at least he got to talk about motorsport on Outside Xtra and luke and Ellen listened to him, whilst spraying him with the aforementioned fragrances (did I mention they are F1 themed). I honored to say Luke that you are now one of us, aka a motorsport enthusiast, I could not be more happy and/or proud. Thank you Mike for bringing Luke into the fold (and for allowing yourself to be sprayed by perfumes for it). Also, nice Mario Kart 64 menu music going on in the background, I like very much, such nostalgia. Big shoutout to Producer Jon for taking part in all this and putting this all together so neatly.
