Welcome back to "Calculating the average age of Simon's references" 16:05 Shirley Jackson's The Lottery - 1948 16:20 The Hunger Games - 2008 19:50 Matt Damon crypto ad - 2021 There were a few more but none of them were easily dateable, so for this episode the average age is 30 years.

Thank you for your service! :D

[@bushybeardedbear]

*Hank The Tank was framed.* There was actually an entire gang of other bears framing him. Look it up.

[@MrMrchatcity]

likely story coming from the Lame Stream Bear Media

[@transorm987]

HOLY SHIT

[@bobruffains5443]

For those who haven't heard, Hank the Tank has been exonerated with DNA evidence.

[@Vollyv]

He was framed!

[@transorm987]

IT'S ACTUALLY REAL, WHAT

[@onironius8008]

Wasn't it found that there were several "Hank the Tanks?"

[@Odyanii]

“No, it’s just in my mind” Is a perfect summary of Lewis half of this entire series

[@HLJOHNO]

Spotify apologised for lewis' mic issues, however I liked them! It made the episode feel like an episode of the YoGPoD

[@SmokeyEdits]

Spotify also put ads on all the YoGPoDs so I'm not entirely sure they're the best authority on this stuff.

[@zebedeetotty]

i download the mp3 of peculiar portions and play it through my tv's crappy speakers sounds exactly like the yogpod, i have them both in the playlist, it's surreal listening to simon talk about how many jaffa cake's he can eat in ep 2 of yogpod and talking about the same thing in a recent pp a decade later

[@SmokeyEdits]

@@zebedeetotty Did you also notice a few PP's ago that Simon and Lewis have swapped mindsets on wrapping gifts? They had a discussion in a YoGPoD about Simon wrapping chocolates to which Simon says they're already wrapped. In a new-ish PP, the roles have swapped. I'll have to see if I can find it.

[@zebedeetotty]

@@SmokeyEdits it's safe to say your dave and have the balls

[@CMF412]

Fun fact: my grandfather played the drums for Marvin gaye during his premier performance of What's Going On.

[@HeliosAlpha]

I love how Simon's first comment about the Hunger Games is about fucking Cake Boy turning himself into a tree, which is also the one thing Tom and Ben bring up from those movies

[@williamcuddy6884]

The way Simon says “Cadbury’s creme egg” reminds me of Brian Butterfield from the Peter Serafinowicz Show, all the way back in 2009…

[@argentandroid5732]

A top ten egg list would have to start with chicken eggs, precisely because it's common and everyone knows them. You always start a top ten with something familiar and relatable to provide a baseline and to prime the reader for the rest.

[@knitterknerd]

Besides, chicken eggs are the best in some ways. They're cheap and widely available, to start.

[@Profanitey]

love how the story of bringing two of every animal and having them fight to find the strongest so a rich guy can fight them is literally part of the story of mann Co from team fortress 2 (pretty sure its mann co, maybe its anothe rbusiness in that universe but its the australium guy)

[@livid_spider]

That’s basically the plot of The Deadliest Game

[@JDBD13]

Lewis: "Let's say he's [Jeff Bezos] one of the good ones." Simon's face says everything I would want to say in retort.

[@zebedeetotty]

Technically

[@Vollyv]

Well, the article on Hank the Tank dates this video nicely. I know that Hank was framed, there were at least two other bears involved. Which is good news for Hank as now he's not going to be put down!

[@phoenixsoren]

I think they missed the part of Hank's story where he skipped hibernation because of a surplus of food in people's houses

[@CrossBreedTacoHD]

"It's like batman" Gives an explanations that does nothing to explain why it's like batman haha

[@EdinMike]

I literally zoned out for two seconds and now there’s Kangaroos in Denmark ? What ?!

[@RuinousDrow]

Such a great way to enjoy my coffee in the morning, You guys are amazing :)

[@ColourlessQueen]

I'm playing a zombie game while listening to this, so the mic issues kept making me think there was a zombie near bye until I realized when I paused the video to locate it, the noise stopped

[@orrhousecreative]

At first glance, I thought this said *Zoey* hired Marvin Gaye impersonator to breed..."

[@happyhatebot]

Thanks, Simon, the idea of a 500lb seagull is exactly the kind of thing I needed before I took a short nap. I'll never sleep again! :|

[@Delaterius]

I'm an American, and I can confirm that most of our dilemmas are in the form of "Use gun on X" or "Give up"

[@Porzellanschnitte]

kangaroo escapes are fairly common in Germany, quite a few farmers own them…

[@niros9667]

Love this podcast so much, keep them coming lads

[@gluedtothemouse]

You know, I go through phases of who I watch on youtube, circulating and whatnot. After like literally half my life spent watching these guys, I still somehow ALWAYS forget just how fucking incredibly awkward Lewis is

[@LpGamingLegend]

My alexa is now playing sexy music thanks lewis xD

[@Xgoldenxeyex]

I pray every night that someone will sit Lewis down, look him in the eyes, and ask him what in the fuck he's wearing

[@caesarfromthemoon]

2:00 poking fun at the KZbin overlords. This is why I love you fellas

[@Meximagician]

23:33 They took off their clothes, filled the clothes with bed sheets, pretended to be sick, knocked out the guard who tried to check on them, put on the guard's clothes, then hopped out of the billionaire's secret prison in disguise. Obviously.

[@volfrax]

The mic issues need to be kept into the future. The toaster mic comeback has added a huge amount to the podcast feels.

[@PenguKeks]

NOOO

[@Cyrathil]

Hank the Tank is my spirit animal. I am legitimately sad that no sanctuaries are willing to take him in. He's just a fat bear trying to live life in this dog-eat-dog world.

[@tylerkelley2881]

I can't believe they missed the very obvious joke of an anti-tank gun at 21:12 lol

[@justinlipkin]

I wonder if Hank would eat the prisoners without seasoning? I imagine he's got a particular taste and that some prisoners could use some salt. Perhaps they would need to be prepped beforehand and rolled around in batter or seasoning

[@samsungmartiHKM]

Actually you shouldn't take Daff on a plane as an armrest because of what is stored up his backside.

[@AStrategyGameDev]

That butterfield impression is perfect

[@nasayears505]

Louis that's a huge flex the 6 to $7,000 necklace. it's solid gold 24k

[@anthonycampbell1726]

I'd stop having babies as well if I thought that someone was going to take them. 🐒

[@jinnywilkin3830]

Hank the Tank is the only enemy Gilear Faeth could defeat

[@JasonAguirre]

Fucking hell guys, I'm in tears...

[@TheKrazyguy75]

"Jeff is one of the good ones..." Uhh... Jeff Bezos? Yeah... no.

[@crazysupernovagaming3638]

Why do I feel as if Lewis and Simon have a similar chemistry to Tom and Ben?... Maybe that's why I love watching their livestreams...

[@evanblankenship4106]

Who should we tie to the rock? BEEP I Love Democracy. Everybody vote Zylus

[@JamieAubrey]

Hank the Tank eats Kid, I'm waiting for that headline

[@Jiberwocky]

That Shirley Jackson reference 👌

[@Shanehudson27]

Hank the Tank was proven not guilty a few days ago!

[@tenleyfrederick5219]

“It’s quite flat, Idaho” as I’m looking over the canyon I live near, I respectfully have to disagree 🤣

[@JAYfromspace]

wasnt it confirmed hank the tank was multiple bears

[@Jash0192]

Well this episode started strong 😂😂

[@moiramain2k]

Came back to this channel after a several year break and while god to see Simon again the fact they're both greying completely took me off guard

[@Chrysus.]

It's CREHM egg, thank you

I appreciate the photo of the elephant just in case people don't know what they look like hahaah

Love the Canadian tuxedo.

[@andrewjenkins9965]

3:46 These are some good tips, I'm writing this down. Looking forward to next week's Egg News. > March 25, 2022 WHAT

[@Emily-Ane_J]

Lewis world: bear eat kid = more visitors. Real world: R.I.P. Harambe.

[@QueenMoontime]

The best podcast

[@hermatic1]

Really can't wait for egg news to see if the mammoth birds egg made the cut?

[@JAYfromspace]

the entire bit with the monkeys is just a "are the heteros ok"

[@BrozvilleRealm]

25:25 they literally just described Saxton Hale

[@SonySteals]

It would be so funny if like 12 years from now, we discover that monkeys understand everything we say, they become a part of our society and this video becomes suuuuuper offensive xdddd

[@Desasterific]

really curious now what alexa interprets as sexy music

[@ladyluzzie4115]

Can we get in Becky as a special guest for Egg News?

[@evilemuempire9550]

What I find interesting, is that a 500lb bear is considered a large bear, one of the largest and most deadly animals on the planet, and that there exists several people that are the same weight

[@praharin]

Hank is a black bear, which are the smallest of bears in North America.

[@evilemuempire9550]

@@praharin I know, the average weight of a black bear is about 300lbs, so Hank is a large bear for his species, but is like half that of a grizzley or polar bear. What matters is that there are numerous people that are the same or higher weight

[@jamesgazeley]

Every week I finish one of these and never have a clue about what is being said

[@BlueXonar]

I'm kind of amazed that a bear can break into dozens of homes in the US without getting shot lol.

[@jonasquinn7977]

Is it weird that I read the title as Zoe hits Marvin Gaye?

[@dl6216]

19:10 So a modern day RANCOR PIT then lol

[@Scio_]

Tenda would be number two I think. But yeah, you can't beat an ostrich egg. Not like a Tenda anyway. You can probably still whisk it.

[@Potato8884]

Can't believe we're listening to this Hank the Tank slander !!!!! He was framed !!!!

[@eiddon]

Like chicken skin, thank you for that Lewis.

[@greyforge27]

I hate the way Lewis says Bezos

[@saltsmoke]

Yogs love the ok sign

[@OctaneIsNot6ft]

Here after this was uploaded six seconds ago and wow that video title is something

[@BlackjackSP]

Is something off with Lewis' mic this time?

[@fishnbrian]

So.. Simon is stil fucking hilarious. Every Time. I wish he was more involved with the main channel. On that note, I would very much enjoy another terrible rendition of an established story for Jingle Jam this year, a-la the nativity and star wars previously. And, the Hank the tank story made me wish this podcast would do a crossover episode with Cox n Crendor... since Jesse is basically American Simon, and vice versa. Also, Jesse gets mentioned on rare occasion by Lewis, but Monster Prom has never been in the Jingle Jam Bundle. Also: editor, that image of the monkey licking the other monkey's nipple cracked me up so much. And it stayed up for sooo long XD

[@cerseihansen7219]

Audio quality issues in the last two episodes fyi

[@hurgleflurp6089]

Yeah shooting a bear doesn’t end well typically.

[@doug9176]

The 'ate a kid' line didn't age well...

[@matthewlewington2470]

Its been days since a new eppesode has come out. im having withdrawal

[@thefinal9923]

Check their views, regular main channel content gets over double the views of Peculiar Portions. It's been almost a guarantee since it began that they would stop sooner rather than later.

[@Boogert22]

@@thefinal9923 Lewis and Simon’s chemistry was what brought me to the channel, and it was the last thing keeping me here. I hope it has a spiritual successor of some sort

[@thefinal9923]

@@Boogert22 Agreed, as somebody who has been watching since Survival Island began, they are the heart of it. Admittedly though, Lewis' chaotic energy is keeping me entertained. Really sad he hasn't been in main channel stuff for a bit.
