I knew that mask was on the whole time!!
As a person that speaks Andrew, I agree with him about the fries.
The french fry is a type of fry... fry is the clarifying word. hence FRENCH fry, STRAIGHT CUT fry, CRINKLE CUT fry. I listened to the podcast while grocery shopping and was like a deer in headlights looking at the the frozen chips xD I don't understand how andrew doesn't realise he is wrong. Hell it takes a quick google search or image search to understand. But if he is purely commiting to the bit then i admire him even more haha
What if I told you that nothing in episode 18 is new? That all of the answers were already provided for it?
The Fireman already told us most of it, the rest of The Return provides the other answers.
going through a ruff patch at the moment and started listening form episode 1 of regulation again - as you do. In ep 2 around 45 min there are some hard Andrew onGions :D!
On toothpaste: I absolutely understand Gavs problem. I have one brand of toothpaste for my work (Im a flight attendant) and I have a different brand of toothpaste at home. And it sucks when I come home and brush my teeth that first day its like eck back to the home toothpaste and then I go back to work and I go eck back to the work toothpaste
Gavin, I also have no idea who young gravy is lol. I honestly love when Gavin and Andrew don't understand each other because the way both their brains work is not on the same level as anyone's lol
If we don’t nominate Genesis for Geoff’s 2027 nickname, we riot.
Speaking of Gears and Gavin's ability to accidentally die or cause a death that sends them back to the last check point, I still remember the Gears 5 video when Gavin tipped over the bookcase splattering Andrew *after* the fight had ended but before they got to the next checkpoint. Andrew's irritation was so tangible and it was so goddamn funny.
The Mi Mundo (coffee shop) inside the HEB on 79/Palm Valley in Round Rock had Coffee Talk yesterday, complete with Regulation Ad :)
I’m with Andrew on the lemonade. I don’t feel like my thirst is quenched. Almost like it dries my mouth out and makes me more thirsty.
If French Fries aren't the first pick in the 'Food named after places' draft, it's going to be such a disappointing missed opportunity.
Have they ever locked down what a personal pan pizza counts as?
EVERYONE NEEDS TO CHOOSE GENESIS FOR THE NEXT NICKNAMES DRAFT
Funny enough the spoiler cut of the show spoiled the mask reveal for me because of auto play haha oh well. Pizza count: 40
I love all the gears content but I was pretty hype when yall did the first reloaded video. I would definitely love more of that.
Love the mask stuff, but did Geoff start an ANEGG cult at the end there?
I literally just bought Lemonade from a stand just this past August lol They had pink and regular
Andrew has never been more wrong. I cant take it. French fry is a type of fry. If you order a waffle fry, you’ll get mesh-looking waffled fry If you order a steak fry, you expect a thick boi. If you order a curly fry, you’re getting a twisty potato. If you order a French fry, you expect you’ll get a long, thin fry. A French fry is a type of fry but not all fries are French fries. How is this so hard?
I had Roos as a kid!! In so many colors lol I loved them.
I knew Nick was in the mask
My grandfather had the goofy phone. Goofy is sleeping and then when a call comes in he wakes up and talks. Thats why there are two poses
Geoff, I have the EXACT same problem with finding souvenirs with the name “Clark” on it! There’s always like “Clint” but no Clark and it hurts everytime
The Bugs Bunny meme really took me out w pull
When I say "Andrew do you want a pickle?" Are you expecting a pickled egg or a pickled cucumber?
My favorite thing about Eric is that he is an equal opportunity getter. He'll get Gavin just as hard as he gets Andrew etc.
Really funny how certain everyone is that he cheated, and then he’s got ample video evidence to back himself up. Masterful play
Skip forward to 26:05 if you want to avoid Control Resonant spoilers/talk
I understand the Andrew fry point. The better comparison for the ice cream thing would be one store has scoop ice cream, one has bars, and another has soft serve. You walk into any of them and order "ice cream", they will all give you their version of ice cream. I don't agree that fries and French fries are the same thing.
Andrew was so close to redemption admitting he was wrong and then doubled down in maybe the most moronic way possible with the ice cream analogy
I understand Gavin's toothpaste
Forgive me Lord, but it’s time to go back to the old me.
I think Gavin would hate fantasy sports, not because he hates sports but because he wouldn't get why other people are scoring what the players are doing in a game where they score already
I hate the potato thing cause I side with Andrew and I feel like it might be just a bit at this point to disagree with him, cause he made so much since in the example of a place and if feels like they have to be gaslighting not understanding. If I go to McDonalds and older a fry I will get their version of fry but if I go to say a local place called Big Alls and order a fry, their fry is a steak cut. Or if I go to a fancy place down town from me I would get waffle cut if I order fried because its all that's all they have. So saying fries mean nothing if a place has a set cut
At 57:01, audibly, with myself being the only person in the room. I laughed and said "you asshole."
Andrew if you go to a ice cream cart or shop or whatever the fuck and you say "give me ice cream" they are not going to just randomly give you icecream, they're going to ask what kind. Literally anywhere. And if they only have one flavor of ice-cream they will go out of their way to tell you. If they only have one kind of "french fry" and it's the normal cut of fry, they are just going to say french fries and they won't elaborate because they are understood *GLOBALLY*.
The French in French fries is for how it’s fried. Gavin was so close they are not frenched fries, they are French fried potatoes. At his base point, I think Andrew is right, and “French fries” did require specification, which Gavin did.
I don't really see how Andrew's point is not immediately addressed by just...looking at menus. McDonald's says french fry. Wendy's says french fry. Go to a random diner, open the menu, and they will probably describe the item Gavin is picking as "french fry". French fry could be broader, but if you say french fry, as opposed to waffle fry, curly fry, etc you know what you're getting. He says Gavin isn't "fry literate" while ignoring that...basically everyone agrees these things are called french fries. Same with potato chips. You can have variations of them, but there is an item that is just an ordinary potato chip. Though there I'm a bit confused by his argumet also because he didn't demand "mashed potatoes with chicken gravy", "cheesy mashed potato", and "mashed potato with brown gravy" were seperate items, it seems like we're ok with stuff having different flavorings added...until potato chip.
I can’t believe Andrew’s french fry take has gotten worse somehow. I still agree that french fries can be taken as a general term (though Gavin is completely legitimate for drafting it), but it is in no way the same as ordering “ice cream” at an ice cream cart - which he agreed with, so I don’t see how that argument is supposed to help him
You need to re release this episode with nicks video in the corner the entire time
Nick doing an impression of himself is great
Andrew continues to be so wrong about the potato stuff. The problem is saying “everyone knows what a French Fry is” doesn’t make sense to Andrew because the category “everyone” doesn’t include Andrew
Why does Andrew insist on being completely wrong, giving nonsensical evidence for why he is right, nobody is on his side including the audience, but he still insists on acting like he is so vastly superior to all of us plebians... its infuriating. Being a heel doesnt work unless you are within striking distance of a steel chair.
Not only did Andrew get murdered on that hill, but he came back to life and went up that hill again and died again 😂😂😂
They should've tried to convince Nick to vote for this show to be the “all-timer” #207. If they slipped it past him, it would've nullified his win!
I get the spoiler post now lol. boka has great toothpaste. their mint is a very mild flavor. they’ve also got a watermelon flavor that’s really good. orange cream. lemon lavender. pomegranate. coco ginger. mint coconut cream. strawberry mango. blueberry dragonfruit. cherry blossom. bubble gum. peppermint blossom. citrus mint. cinna mint. sorry but shoe wallet has the same appeal as sweaty boob money 🤢 Geoff I see my name celebrated and lambasted every year but only one time in my life have I found something personalized. it was a handmade and painted ceramic mug and only had my name on it because the lady’s granddaughter was also a Summer. so I feel you on that. also at the end I definitely thought you were doing the “some are (summer), some are not” joke my youth minister used to think was hilarious.
I need these Gears videos, man
At no point during this was I on Andrew's side. He's gone off deep end.
I’m with Gavin about the bullpen, I’ve seen at least a dozen baseball games in my life but last time I paid attention to where the players go when the game ends and it blew my mind that they all walk into the outfield and beyond
“I think you would unintentionally leak the name to Gavin” coming from the guy who said Albert 1 week into trying to keep it a secret
Andrew you are not crazy about someone being able to steal your info off a Credit Card Tap, there are companies that make wallets specifically to prevent theft just by someone passing beside you with a tap device.
I would sincerely love a podcast special where Geoff, plus all who have seen it, talking about Twin Peaks and his thoughts on it all and the end and his interpretation.
If Gavin had just said fries I’d be on Andrew’s side in this but he didn’t. French fries are a type of fry. Crinkle, curly, waffle etc were all still available to pick.
I could hear it. He sounded slightly off to me, like he was trying to hide something lol
Andrew is still wrong.
What gets me about the French fry argument from Andrew is that he is exactly describing his first pick. Technically, tater tots are a trademarked name by a single company and do not apply to all versions/variations of the shape. Most places use potato barrels. So he is specifically choosing a certain type of tot/barrel but trying to use that and apply it to all variations. Surprised no one has called him out on that
For the Garfield phone, take 1 caller during the break show. Let Andrew use his set up.
38:50 Erics 'yea it seemed like u had such a handle on it too' lolol
The French fry is a style of fry the end
As someone with an uncommon name, I totally understand and empathize with Geoff. What’s worse is that my name is uncommon, with an uncommon variant, so if that name exists, it’s spelled differently.
Hate to say report, “Get Minter up and moving around” wasn’t a live tv.
Gavin needs to have Del boy's phone from Only Fools and Horses.
If there was ever going to be a third name for another iteration of this podcast it could very well be "Andrew is wrong about.."
Who would have thought guessed that it would be the simple potato that broke Regulation?
I had my suspicions
I saw something in the preview I don’t think I should have seen 🤐
Not to brag but I knew he had a mask on from the start. Never for a second did I think he cheated at the end
Andrew talked like an athlete at a press conference about his pizza count
Some interesting developments in the Coffee Shop Questionnaire. I think it would be funny if Gavin ended up not being familiar with the person.
Oh yeah Geoff’s nickname absolutely has to be Genesis now
andrew is still wrong about the fries and i don’t quite understand his argument 😂
I had never heard of Yung Gravy, and then Monday he’s on the Kill Tony panel and today he gets a Regulation call out. I don’t know what that means, but it must mean something.
Andrew's Toothpaste Gauntlet, but the rest of the guys have to guess what flavor he tried based on his reaction alone.
The AJ Minter prank call is one of the funniest, but worst filmed, pranks in history. Minter was in the dugout when they made the call and they got him to trot down to the bullpen and start warming up. The problem is they were laughing and yelling so much that the video just shook. Still an absolute classic. The video below shows not only the original, but also how it was setup, and Minter’s response. https://youtube.com/shorts/hOArrFbfYMo?is=wxvJODzdWLjUDjoJ
I FUCKING KNEW NICK WAS IN THAT MASK. WAYYYY TOO FAR FROM THE MIC
I could here it from the very beginning. I dont think there was any cheating.
That bullpen phone call video is one of the funniest things Ive ever seen. I’m so glad it got a mention.
I feel like Erics gut feeling about Nick wearing the mask is so similar to Gavin just knowing whenever Matt was a traitor in TTT
Andrew likes to start arguments, explain his points badly, forget what he's arguing about, then just keeps digging in for the hell of it.
So the guessing game, the answer is Shannon McCormick right?
no fucking shot is Andrew deserving of 3% of the blame? he said Hivebusters, and they booted up something other than Hivebusters. how the hell is that Andrew's fault, even 3% of the blame?
So Gavin throws away his laces if they hit the bathroom floor but wants to touch the bottom of his shoes first his wallet.. something ain’t right with this boy…
I say release the nick cut, because I’m not convinced. Andrew has such a way with words man, he can make you disagree with him even when he has a decent point. Regulation pizza slices: 14
Also agree with the comment leavers, Andrew prioritizing old games makes sense completion wise but from content standpoint is so funny to argue. Especially because ITS NOT RELEASED AT ALL YET
Go Birds!
Is nick in the mask?
I love how even here, Andrew doesn't bring up the post he made to try and get the audience on his side 🤣
The conclusion to this Gavin guess thing is going to be so anticlimactic for the audience
RELEASE THE *BEEP* CUT
RELEASE THE NICK CUT
[EPISODE SPOILER] I’m sorry guys but I could hear the mask the whole episode, nick played it well but I got monkey vibes pretty early on
I came here to say the same thing. I could tell from the first time I heard Nick that he was in the mask
Just another PSA that French does not refer to the cut. French-fried potatoes. It’s the method of frying. I have provided extensive sourcing on Reddit if anyone has a lot of time to waste.
What do I search to see this
Eric is NOT wrong about sweet potato.
I'm at 42 slices 🙃
No coffee shop guest guess?
I DO NOT GIVE A SHIT ABOUT OLDER GEARS. Post just E-Day Andrew. It is hot and now
Geoff was meant to be Amanda but he was a man instead
I could be violet, sky!
I see Gavin hasn't heard of Just Chips, though I heard they closed down they apparently only sold fries.
The funniest thing happened. With Geoff talking about his non-Geoff keychain misery, I just googled 'geoff keychain'. The first page of results was just Jeff keychains.
Release the Nick Cam.
Should've made this 275 or whatever it was. Would've been funny to never know that nick wore the mask until that number would hit
I had such a hard time following any conversation started by Gavin. I felt like I had comprehension issues. Lol Update: It was everyone being confusing the entire episode, but in the best way. Maybe I'm just developing early onset dementia.
This episode feels like déjà vu.
I’m gonna be honest, I heard him like half way through.
0:30:30 "My thirst was parched" *Quenched, you sweet silly bean 😂
Instead of game backgrounds for the video, can we just have nick’s camera the whole time haha at least one time.
NICK CAMCAST!
Listening to Andrew talk about the fries again is like watching him play the prison escape game. He forgets when to stop digging and doesn't get the dirt flushed.
As someone who is partially on Andrew’s side in the potato draft, his argument in this podcast made zero sense whatsoever 😂
I really like the chameleon novelty landline phone that sings karma chameleon as its default ringtone, that’s my vote for a regulation telephone
It’s just 207 every week recently
I love when a bit from 3 episodes ago takes up more than half the episode lmao
I’m with Gavin. What’s the point of even releasing Gears Reloaded and Gears 5/Hivebusters now that you’ve missed the window before Gears E-Day? I can’t imagine the viewership will be that interested in watching the older games now that the new game is out? I’m sure some people will be like “I’ll watch anything” and I guess it’s going on Patreon so it doesn’t matter. But you’re gonna be releasing old Gears content well into the GTA hype machine.
It’s gonna be so fuckinh funny when it turns out Gavin doesn’t know the coffee shop guy but Eric somehow does.
GM AN EGG
Instead of more new ideas can we DO THE BIT BARREL AGAIN
Plus the claw!
I can't believe Andrew ate the pencil this episode!
Let’s goooo!!!
Ayooo
Hello people
