Smooooooooth Apparatus (operator) is now playing in my head
Giving up listener status for this. We need an Eric teaches the gang to sew going into Geoff teaches the gang to take a picture, and so on.
ANDREW THANK YOU. IM HYPED AS FUCK FOR SHREK 2. LEGENDARY GAME
man I don’t wash shit before I wear it am I gross 😟
Mantis sleep masks are my go to sleep mask, they have rubber on the back side so it doesn’t slide off
I thought I knew the best potatoes for fries because of an obscure line from an episode of Stargate SG-1 (“Golds don’t make for good mash. Told ‘em to make french fries instead.”). But come to find out, Gen Jack O’Neill was wrong. Shame on you Jack, you led me astray in this useless trivia.
Another Brit, Gavins description of the apparatus is spot on
The steak part, my dad worked at Bob Evans when I was a kid, and he had people order steaks and hamburgers on the grill 30 seconds a side.
Regulation House needs an Apparatus.
Eric can sew?!
As a Canadian in Northern BC we definitely had a “Canadian climber”!
Anyone else have fond memories of going to the park and playing on the public Apparatus?
I had an apparatus at my Canadian elementary school. Gavin talking about that unlocked some memories.
Damn I really didnt realize that you couldn't just wear clothes fresh out of the packaging...fuck
You're doing Sloppy Joe's Bingo a day before Halloween? I mean, it'll be the 31st for me, but like, couldn't you, in theory, call it, oh, I don't know..... say..... Spooky Joe's Bingo? Then next year do it all again and call it.... TOO Spooky Joe's Bingo?!?
This is episode is exactly what Geoff was thinking when he pitched this podcast😂
Wasn’t clothing glue a “Does it do?” Episode???
“Gotta settle for a 5 when you can’t find a 9”- how my Fiancée picked me 😂
A microwave already spins both ways, Andrew. At least every one that I've had does. it always goes the opposite way as the use before. You can stop and start something cooking and observe. If you meant spinning both ways at the same time.... wouldn't that just be staying still? Very inefficient heating.
Thin enough cut of steak would be fine, just need that hot iron. Thick and hot holding a lot of heat to sear that steak real nice
I grew up in Vancouver (not the island but the actual place) in the early 2000s and we definitely had the apparatus. We rarely got to use it because it was so jank. I seem to remember only convincing substitute teachers to let us use it
I would love literacy quizzes to return in future episodes.
I can't believe the British equivalent of "doohickey" or "thingamajig" is just "apparatus" that's RAD
He’s a recipe guy, add it to the list
I love when Gavin brings up niche UK stuff from the 90s that baffles everyone else
The funniest thing about being a Brit the same age as Gavin is I’m fully on board with things like the apparatus and I’m shocked when people don’t know what it is
The frozen steak cook is how my dad cooked steaks when I was growing up. He likes his steak more on the blue side but for the rest of us, he just kept them on the grill for an extra minute or so. Turns out alright but I would not recommend this cooking method for a consistent cook. However, it does work on a very hot grill.
Additional fun coincidence is that his name is also Mark.
Gav, I'm getting proper trauma from apparatus.. Apparatus was only for school. It was different from a jungle gym, or what we called a "climbing frame". Climbing frames were metal and lived in parks and had no rules. Apparatus was specifically the janky wooden thing that folded out from the wall in school assembly halls. They assessed your performance and shit Apparatus = not fun Climbing frame = fun
Crackdown would be so fun though.
Very excited for Sloppy Joe's if it works, but just a thought: does it being the day before Halloween not make you scared of nudity?
Please tell me that's not an AI thumbnail..
Was it the Fry Guys who had a member cheat on their wife with an employee? Or am I thinking of H3H3?
Fellow brit, I used to LOVE IT when the teacher would whack out the Apparatus. I once bonked my head on it though
I had one of my best friends knit me a Honkshoe hat!! Me n Andrew; bringing it back!
It’s crazy that a fry literacy quiz was how I found out Morgan Spurlock passed away
Geoff. That test. French kiss. Phenomenal. So much fun
This episode just convinces me that Geoff should take over Andrews job of organizing all the gameshow type games they play because he's way better at it
I can’t believe Andrew Blue himself
i dont think i've ever washed clothes before wearing them
Hard to believe that Eric ate a dishwasher steak but doesn’t want to eat Marc’s steak
What word does Gavin say at 39:55?
What game is the background ?
Over the hill
Please never do a quiz again like that
hard agree
V-- episode 207 button
Marcthefrog out here committing steak atrocities, but I get it as someone who also works on call rotations
Can the most fry literate person please explain french fries from this season of Love Island?
Every time Gavin shares a childhood story I become less convinced that England was ever real.
I love how the fry literacy quiz had nothing to do with different types of fries which is what Andrew was complaining about in the first place
I think zombies when they first become zombies can be fast and run quickly since the body is newly dead. Over time though the body should slow down with the decay.
Bruh Eric's comment on the rice had me remember the vampire episode in jackie chan adventures 😂 🤣
Slippin' Gavvy
intentionally settle for 5 when there's no 9's for you, aka gav's life before meg
I don't know if it's a good or a bad thing that I came up with the same method as Gavin on the fry quiz after about half of it, to pick C.
I don't think I've ever washed new clothes before wearing them the first time 😳
Great background Geoff wasn't expecting to see it so soon!
We had apparatus like that at my elementary school in Ontario and then one day it was just gone and we never talked about it again lol. (Edit: posted this before Eric called it the Canadian apparatus 😂)
You dont know SPUD andrew!! French fries for the win 🏆
TIL the "big ladders" up against the wall of the gym were supposed to move?????
This rules The funniest part of the quiz is how they kept calling it French fry and there was no disagreement
The zombie thing depends. Viral based is the most likely cause for runner zombies. it's been a minute since I read the book but in the zombie survival guide they are said to be potentially faster and stronger than the average person at least when fresh then degrade rapidly after. Due to the fact the virus has the ability to remove the natural human limiter and dump adrenaline in the host body. The infected wound be almost super human for a brief window until the muscles started tearing and the bones fractured. So for a very brief window of time during the initial outbreak we'd be fucked until the dead started essentially self destructing. Its speculation not fact though.
What is the human natural limiter and how wil a dead body produce adrenaline? In reality we have something like fast zombie virus and it is called rabies. Humanity has rabies under control, so why would it be different for fast zombies ?
Is the werewolf curse just a metaphor for the period
The full moon is a big light in the sky for the whole night. It is disruptive for sleep and it can trigger more aggressive behavior from humans. Werewolves it is not, but it is a rational explication.
Regulation monsters is just Supernatural meets What we do in the Shadows 🤣
Risinger?
Gotta say, really appreciate y'all uploading these so early on patreon (except that one week). I start work at 3 am so its always nice to have Regulation at the start of my shift.
Same. I love how early they release it.
The Apparatus was so much fun as a kid
I really loved the quiz and hope they do it again for something else in the future!
Geoff coulda used AI to make the fry quiz and I dont think any of us would have ever known
Clothing glue.... Andrew just needs to rewatch does it do hosted by Geoff and Gavin
i guess meg settled for a 5 instead of a 9 then (to clarify gavin is the 5)
Shannon McCormick is my guess
Phenomenal quiz Geoff 👏👏👏
I could be wrong but I believe the rice thing is about the fae. Although a lot of my knowledge on the supernatural and mythology has been affected by video games at this point. For Marc’s steak, I wonder if it even hits rare or is it just at blue. Regulation pizza slices 28
I've heard it as a line of salt for vampires. But frankly rice and salt are both small white things that are a ball ache to count, so maybe that's where it comes from. Pizza Count: 32 slices
Brit here - Gavin perfectly described the apparatus. We did used to get so excited when it came out though, likely because you got to use it like once in year 3 starting junior school and then once in year 6 when your teachers have given up because you've finished your SATs.
Finished all the Biff, Chip & Kipper books
The school would probably send him a picture of a Bunsen burner and a beaker on a beaker stand
I did not ace this quiz. Got a 50% that would've been an 80% if I didn't second guess myself.
omg the The Apparatus is such a nostalgia unlock
Man, I can't wait to ace this quiz.
Geoff saying "I don't fuck around." about something that is just fucking around is the 100% commitment to the bit I come to see. Bravo Geoff. Bravo!
Geoff isnt known for half-assing a bit and thats why we love him
Ayoooo from UK daylight savings era
Let’s goooo! (Thank you Geoff for teaching me about the coloured eggs thing a while back because my kids asked yesterday why/how are there different coloured chicken eggs and I got to explain why and they were over the moon I knew haha)
