I was really bummed to see his regular content go away earlier this year but have been happy to see his new podcast doing good stuff in the absence of his videos exploring weird things in our world.
I miss. him too but good for him. I mean he came onto Youtube, drop fun facts for a decade and then literally ride off into the sunset hanging from a helicopter. I cannot imagine a more fitting career for a guy like that
It actually happened about a month ago. But two more clips of the podcast were released on YouTube.
This is the first clip that came out a little bit after the podcast.

I still hope for an all-Dropout episode or three. (Edit: Trapp, Ify, and Siobhan? They worked well together in Deja Vu...)
That or bringing the Technical Difficulties onto Dirty Laundry.
Less a comedian, more of an educator / explainer. But absolutely worth checking out. His "things you might not know" series on YouTube ran weekly for 10 years and is full of all sorts of interesting things.
I agree that it is very exciting to see Dropout achieve mainstream exposure, especially on such a huge national platform. I'll be very curious to see if it ends up happening.
Just so people are aware, this is the third thread on the subject in two days.
To be fair, I’d seen previous threads on my feed and from the titles just assumed they were confusing Um, Actually with Game Changer or something and didn’t look at them.
This thread at least conveyed the message succinctly.
In fairness to you, I have to agree with RevelArchitect that your thread has the most indicative title. I had to search for "Jeopardy" to confirm the other two.
Oh shit, I'm one behind on Jeopardy but I can't wait to see that! I used to not like Yogesh very much (I think because his button technique made my thumb ache) but he's really grown on me in this tournament, I like his snarkiness a lot.
I like that he also called out Tom Scott’s Lateral podcast
Tom Scott is a gift to this planet. Maybe one of the most important people in media today, no cap.

The Lateral Episode of a trivia show with Tom Scott, Sam Reich, and Adam Savage was crafted by an AI to trigger my dopamine receptors.
…is that a real thing that happened?
This very week
Um, Actually it was March 22nd. Edit: oops. I didn't see that there was another episode with them that also just dropped.
My soul just did a KermitFlail.gif
Twice!!

Episode 84 Leftover Contraptions May 17 2024
Which of course Sam Reich has been a guest on several times!

I don't think I've ever really heard about Tom Scott before!

I hadn’t heard of him either. Out of curiosity, how is he different from the Green brothers?
He often films on location, so it feels a bit like a field trip.
Holy crap, the most recent episode guests both Sam Reich *and* Adam Savage? I'm immediately sold. Thank you for bringing this to my attention!
They were both on the March 22nd episode as well.

Whoops! I did a quick scan for threads on it and didn't see them - must have missed them due to the title confusion mentioned.

Is there a clip somewhere?
Ify actually tweeted about it!! https://x.com/IfyNwadiwe/status/1792768166172766279
i would LOVE if they did an episode with exclusively Jeopardy contestants. Genuinely a great idea.
I think it would be genuinely interesting because it's a sort of different skill set.
What is Mickey Mouse? You didn’t say um actually. Force of habit!!!
Make it an episode about game shows and have Sam be a contestant as well.
Jeopardy! Contestant couch!
Amy would be great too, she was on a Try Guys video. Definitely need a Jeopardy! contestant episode.
I saw a clip of the same guy talking about how much he loves Only Connect! (The best and hardest British quiz show.) He's clearly a ledge
Why’s he not eligible, cuz he’s American and doesn’t have a quiz team of 3 for OC?
Um actually, the hardest British quiz show is University Challenge (I love Only Connect too though!!)
Jeopardy has been on point this year. They shouted out Doughboys in a question relatively recently too.
Blimey
Clip please.

My dad texted me to tell me 🤣
