RT Podcast: Ep. 472 - Porgs Are Better Than Ewoks

[@joshowens8628]

Alternative names for this podcast: "Why isn't planes on bird power?" and "My grandmother took me to a canary"

[@Juju_Miner]

Brandon explaining the fish market reminded me of Joel telling everyone to buy gold,

[@orana03]

jeremy ray And a completely different one is a funny moment involving Brandon

What episode is that?

[@JulesSii]

First gavin says "Jew week" and now he asks if the candles have names hahaha

[@krablord]

on waxy, on wicko...

[@pigpower1189]

Jules i would name my candles if i was Jewish

[@darkstar4450]

Jules Don't forget about "Jewgle"

[@Pir-o]

Chris should talk with Brandon about fish stuff.

[@thisstatementisfalsenothin5312]

Piro Man I want sword

[@iampetz]

They should have a vid where they send Brandon to a fish market to buy fish and Chris cooks it after.

[@AkiraVtuber]

sword with vinaigrette all day everyday

[@Ayveh]

Yes! This needs to be the top comment!!!

[@JustDee22]

Porgs were created because Skelig Michael in Ireland is a large Puffin colony & the crew weren't allowed to scare them so they created Porgs as digital costumes for Puffins

[@matotry]

Just Dee that is the greatest fact ever.

[@unoriginalyoutubename8761]

@@matotry is that a joke?

[@Kolateak_]

"What's a fish slaughter house?" "Sea world" My god I don't think I should have laughed that much at it

[@TheBullDurham]

When is TellTale: Red vs Blue coming out?

[@jacobplayer2709]

Bull Durham asking the real questions

[@Snook1985]

Bull Durham No. I'd rather have another developer do a RvB game where choices actually mattered.... Wait.... ........... you know what? Yeah, where is the Telltale RvB game?

[@delaneymontelli7913]

4:41 good for you Gavin you know the difference between seasons👏🏻👏🏻

[@chickenisnic]

In Australia Christmas and summer are same thing.

[@451asians]

The amount of fish discussions on the rooster teeth podcast are surprisingly high

[@zlatkogrudenic6133]

Look at Gavins knee at 10:20

[@the_bridge6817]

👌👌👌

[@soapydanielle]

Zlatko Grudenić LOL 😂

[@faceless58]

I just came here after watching Meg's new video with Gavin in it where he mentions he had stitched in his left knee. Looked right at it like a schmuck. gj

[@tolchaton1121]

My uncle told me he took Wookie as a language course in college. He use to translate what Chewy was saying when I'd watch Star Wars.

[@CJ_Carpenter]

Thank God this wasn’t a clip show. I watch the podcast multiple times as it is.

[@JackBessant]

‘The good news is, is that it’s walking cancer...’

[@delethiawilliams2577]

Does no one realize that Brandon is a real person, that has never done anything to any of the people hating on him? There is nothing productive about destroying him in the comments. Keep bringing Brandon on the podcasts.

[@CTSFive]

So we shouldn't express our opinion?

[@theotianyarttar9230]

i tried googling it but i couldn't really find anything concrete. Did Brandon say something that got people mad at him? Both he and Jon risinger seem to have commentators against them and i can't find why.

[@AnOddSmellOfficial]

Brandon just says stupid, uneducated things and has what seems to be a form of anger management issues. I personally am not a fan of him, but I'm not really going to hate him for his problems

[@delethiawilliams2577]

I didn’t say you shouldn’t express your opinions. I just don’t think you should shut a PERSON down. Express opinions on everything, I’m open to conversation, but “if you don’t have anything nice to say...” should apply here when speaking of a person. Opinions on anything else are always open. Just thinking of how it probably doesn’t feel great to see all of the comments just bashing you.

[@delethiawilliams2577]

Theotian Yarttar I’m not sure. I didn’t see it if so. People just love to hate people for no reason.

[@JackBessant]

No Rooster Teeth podcast clip show..? :(

[@poopymcbuttface2994]

'Why isn't planes on bird power" - Gavin

[@Ayveh]

I mean...if you think about it his questions makes a lot of sense!

"Why isn't planes on birdpower?" should be a T-Shirt 😂

[@sahalanimation]

it's always fun when brandon comes in. there's always a moment when he's yelling and it's always funny

[@_halloeen_856]

Not all vineyards make wine my grand aunt had a vineyard and i went there every fall and summer to help them harvest the grapes and sell the grapes in the town and on the road side But we would sometimes make grape juice which if you do it good and are okay with some pulp you can get a glass without wasting too many grapes

[@jdamick]

Just wanted to say that I'm going through some tough relationship and life decisions and listening to these as I drive is the only thing I look forward to each and every day. Thank you guys for keeping me going. Even if Brandon is here tehe

[@OscarLopez-wr3yd]

Burnie trying to remember shows made my day.

[@jeffbrownstain]

I wish there were a way I could get notifications for JuST RT podcast, episodes of rwby, and Always open. Those are the only shows I watch of yours right now, and and I don't want notifications for everything.. oh, and on the spot. I like listening to you guys talk more than anything.

[@dsusak]

Didn't they miss one podcast when Monty passed?

[@MrKrimson]

Nope, they streamed 3 days after his death still, you cna find it, it has matt instead of gus on it - and burnie mourns him at the beggining for news to the audience

[@lapisleafuli1817]

Brandon and chris should make a podcast solely about fish.

[@glorysky1998]

HAPPY HOLIDAYS

[@gandeef]

Right around the 22:00 mark is why I can't do Brandon podcasts. My blood pressure is at dangerous levels.

[@MrKrimson]

... good for you.. now piss off and keep your hateful comments to yourself

[@Eedrah24]

touche?

[@99germfree]

you seem more full of hate than OP

[@davidcoutcher7794]

Brandon has talents but on screen he is a moron

[@ThisIsntFine]

Right?! him being so stressed stresses me out lol and Mr krimson doesn't get Hyperbole apparently

[@TheSqaure]

The whiskey portion of the podcast, made me think they should do a collaboration with they guys from the whiskey vault channel it would be amazing.

[@BryanGreffin]

The podcast gets more entertaining as everyone gets more intoxicated.

[@ginjaninjachicka7334]

"Whats a fish slaughter house-" "SEAWORLD."

[@sergiomelendez285]

I think my two favourite exchanges just happened right after eachother in this; "What's a fish slaughterhouse called?" "Seaworld." and "Like- a canary!" "....cannery?"

[@NSpeNDeR]

-What is a horsepower? -Let me google it. -What is a quartz? This podcast reminds me of the episode of Friends, where Ross and Mike were forced to spend time together. "What is the difference between a beer an lager?"

[@stupogo0]

I like how Chris said its all on the person you're with and it is a discussion that needs to happen

[@catzalotATJ]

"Showing and not telling is better than a character saying "never left home before" says the man running the productipn company that has Oscar Pine say the phrase "I've never left home before, i thought i would be worried, but i'm not."

[@umcevidyas8558]

so, as someone who doesnt fully understand the Rooster Teeth community, why do so many people hate Brandon? i personally dont like him *too much* because of the way he presents himself at times, but he is bearable enough to the point where im not going to dislike a podcast because of him

[@themagic8481]

Brandon needs to be a character in sitcom.

[@kanesam9128]

As a mechanical engineer that horse power conversation hurt, it just hurt.

[@JackBessant]

Oh wow, a place that sells fish to eat, smells like dead fish 👏🏻😂

I don't know if I believe that. Seems a bit outlandish.

[@Aplesedjr]

Godhand0777 would you say it smells fishy?

[@Godhand-gi6ic]

Logan Sanders I think SOMETHING here smells fishy for sure!

[@martinjamieson]

Dead fish doesn't really smell, rotting fish does. Don't ever buy fish from a fish monger that smells like fish.

[@Hyavobi]

did anybody figure it out?

[@stareater1870]

Ayyyyyye. I think about 3:32 all the time. Remember my grandpa called me and my cousin crazy when we were playing because we kept on saying it. Also remember Gus talking about it years ago.

[@PukusKLB]

Only the RT podcast could make a discussion on units of measurement and a discussion on how a watch works interesting and funny

[@nealnickerson1459]

Podcast is the best video from rt. Thanks.

[@TheHalffire]

It's funny how in some places washers were used to trick vending machines. A polish co-worker who lived through the fall of the soviet union told me that a washer often cost more than a coin of a similar size, so they'd just drill a hole through the coin and use that.

[@iggynailo]

Hey Gavin, one of the Jewish candles does have a name. The center candle that is often higher than the others is called the shamash, the servant/helper, and is used to light the others.

[@whyfishonheadyt3408]

I wonder how many times burnie has said “that’s an interesting distinction.”

[@wio3593]

Wisconsin resident here, we just call them farms and dont overthink it, Burnie.

[@jadesded]

Maybe I don't watch The RT podcast as much but like this episode felt super educational.

[@dangernoodle6122]

Shoutout to all my fellow FFA members

[@8stringedbandit]

Love how y'all think horsepower is ridiculously arbitrary, but are completely fine with measuring length in feet

[@thisstatementisfalsenothin5312]

Jeremy Oates what’s wrong with feet

[@8stringedbandit]

Kris learn how to use apostrophes properly before you go saying other people are idiots. There's nothing wrong with feet, just that it's a completely arbitrary measurement much like horsepower. I mean whose foot were they measuring to come up with it? Whose yard was only that big (and two dimensional to boot)?

[@theneweratm3715]

Jeremy Oates idiot one foot is 12 inches

[@8stringedbandit]

Hahaha and what's an inch? Historically what we now call the Imperial units of length had immense local variation, and was not standardised until after the metre. - the current formal definition of the length of a foot is itself based off the length of a metre. The metre, however was initially defined as being one ten-millionth of the distance between the north pole and the equator, though that has since changed to a definition based on the wavelength of light as scientific advance has demanded more precision

[@theneweratm3715]

Jeremy Oates just shut up you’re a moron

[@jaxlutton4289]

"Do Jewish people have reindeer?" - Gavin Free 2018

[@AJvsEverything]

To clarify how horsepower is currently used, it's based on a formula that uses the actual measurable force of torque in foot pounds, or lb/ft...so you measure an engine's horsepower by first measuring it's torque on a dynamometer and then calculating what the horsepower is based on engine RPM multiplied by the lb/ft of torque measured at that RPM, then divided by 5252, and you'll have your horsepower number for that given RPM point on the graph...it's a completely arbitrary number since it's not actually measured...as the saying goes, horsepower is how fast you hit the wall, and torque is how much of the wall you take with you when you hit it...

[@qthestruggler2715]

Ok burnie genuinely had me die with the half horse joke! That sir is one like

[@happysack321]

as a gearhead watching this podcast, it’s absolutely hilarious from gavin saying horsepower measures torque, to burnie inferring a 500 horsepower car could reach 300mph burnie talking about testing a lamborghini’s horsepower with a high tech treadmill i’ve never even thought about it, a dyno is literally a glorified, tuned treadmill if you simplify it not to mention all the people getting butthurt in the comments, not everyone has the same interests as you, try to not get so upset when someone doesn’t agree with you

[@paulgreenhalgh5197]

Listening to them trying to work out what bhp is, funny and slightly frustrating at the same time. Love these guys

Hopefully the new video site will make viewing much smoother in Australia.

[@callumharris656]

11:27 Nice throw back to the early 8/11 podcast guys

[@jdsd744]

Everyone hates Brandon, but he is one of the most genuinely interesting and unintentionally funny individuals at RT. He's the first of the New Guard of rt that has fully established his position. He's the crazy weird one with out there opinions that others react around. Just like Joel. Miles is obviously new Bernie. I think as Gavin gets older we'll see him turn into a gus. Just a guess.

[@allbottledup9513]

jdsd744 I agree completely except I think Gavin will be more like Geoff. Old and lovable, but funny and rude

[@MrKrimson]

Agreed, i actually prefer brandon sometimes.. cause he is genuinely the most normal - just cause he doesnt know what a fish market is.... doesnt mean oyu hsould hate another human

[@JurassicLion2049]

Might sound weird but I think if anyone would be new Gus itd be Barbara. But Brandon is also kinda like Gus. Idk whod be the new Matt but Blaine kinda makes me think of Hullum.

[@CharlieVSGaming]

I don’t like him being on the podcast mainly because he likes to take over every conversation and just gets really loud and making no sense. I like hearing interesting funny convos not someone yelling nonsense, which derails everything.

[@bbrbbr-on2gd]

CharlieVSGaming So... not an SP7 fan?

[@JT-vh6jo]

Referencing the ford conversation. I bought a 1996 F250 and with a way expired warranty and immediately got spam warranty calls and still do 3 years later.

[@somethingbanter]

quartz is used in the oscillator in the watch, the signal produced by the oscilator is regulated using the quartz crystal, which conducts electricity and certain energy vibrations, to tell the watch how fast or slow to tick the gears. quartz is very accurate cuz its chemical properties let it manage electrical frequencies and vibrations efficiently

[@PastaGut]

I got my engagement ring directly from one of the organizations that assess diamonds and saved like 3000 dollars. Jewelers are the better scammers.

[@ceegii63]

cant wait for that Animated Fish Butcher Shop episode

[@ninjafroggie1]

I have a phone on my desk right next to my PC, so when I'm gaming and the phone rings I often pick it up before the first ring is finished because its only about 8 inches from my hand already....this seems to really mess with the robodialers, most of the time I pick up the phone for unknown numbers and it's just dead air because the robodialer never heard the ring tones to signal that the call went through.

[@jcuttyfoe]

dying thinking about fisheries while they argue about fish markets and bait shops

[@theangrypacifist1568]

I like how Brandon calls how everyone will make fun of him before he finishes his sentience

[@bryanwoods3373]

Not exactly a hard prediction. People make fun of him when he's in the thumbnail. And sometimes when he's not on the podcast. Very sad. If you actually listen to what he's saying and try just a little to understand what he's trying to say, he makes perfect sense. One of the big differences between the podcast crew and the fans when ripping into Brandon is that the podcast crew still tries to go back and break down his point. The fans just don't care.

[@DaPopeANata]

Bryan Woods Exactly. In a way Brandon is like Gavin, but magnified. Both seem to have issues with putting their thoughts into words in a way that others can understand what they're trying to say. Granted Gavin is probably "correct" more often, and Brandon's issues with defending his point doesn't help, but they are more alike that some would give them credit for. Also unlike the fans is the crew's apparent enjoyment of Brandon getting loud and flustered with his defenses of his words, to the point where I think sometimes when they don't put enough effort into trying to "decode" him, it's because they find it funnier to not understand him.

[@bryanwoods3373]

Your last point is one of the things people ignore when talking about how uneducated and stupid Brandon is. We're seeing an hour of them messing with him. There's also been times they've praised Brandon for things. Gus has said that if he handed the show off to anyone, he would give it to Brandon because he's just as neurotic about making sure everything gets done. And Brandon got hired. If he were so stupid, he wouldn't be on staff. Don't know if he interned as well. I think what people really hate about him is that they want to be working for Rooster Teeth and someone has to be the sacrificial lamb that is finally seen as less talented to make way for them.

Just FYI in most metric countries HP is actually not used very often, we use KW for car power where im from

[@esaedvik]

Horsepower isn't used in measuring car engine power in most countries nowadays. They use the actual SI system unit, watt. HP is just still included cause people don't understand what a "kilowatt/kW" is.

Brandon isn't talking about a fish market. He's talking about a fish processing plant. It's basically a stage between fishing boat and fishing market or supermarket.

As soon as they talked about the tomato sorting machine I had to stop and go watch a video of it, and damn is it cool

[@redpushpop99]

RTAA coming soon about the whole fish canary segment lmao.

[@ACUechow]

Im a mechanic and car nut, today i learned how any other specialist feels when these guys start talking about their field jeesus i love you guys, but horsepower is a , force which is work over time, you have to think of a horse on a treadmill attached to a clutch amd gears which changes the number of gallops from gallop to gallop to gallop to 1/3 of a gallop so it can inrcrease speed whithout a change in power output

[@ACUechow]

Also i know youll never read this it just gives me comfort that someome might haha

[@adahdf]

Okay so an easy way to think of horsepower and torque is that horsepower is how much you can do (such as the origin of lifting the coal or whatever it was) and torque is how fast you are able to achieve that maximum power. Easiest way to explain it

[@Chuzado_117]

Speaking about dead rising the second game was what got me into watching rooster teeth/AH... when I bought that game back then on the 360 I couldn't defeat a boss and looked it up then saw a video with Geoff and Jack explaining how to do it and ever since then I've been a Rooster teeth fan

[@sheevanator]

No, Santa's not dead, he's just in jail for breaking and entering.
