Tonight's guests, professor of "Um, Actually"-ology,
it's Mike Trapp! - Hey!
- New York Times best punning novelist,
it's Rekha Shankar. - Hello!
- And recipient of the MacArthur Wholesome Grant,
it's Ryan Creamer!
And your host, me! I've been here the whole time!
This is "Game Changer", the only game show where the game
changes every show, I am your host Sam Reich.
I am joined today by these three lovely contestants.
Now, you all understand how the game works.
- No.
- That's right, our players have no idea
what game it is they're about to play.
The only way to learn is by playing,
the only way to win is by learning,
and the only way to begin is by beginning,
so without further ado, let's begin.
Ryan, you've watched a TED Talk in your life, I assume?
- Yes.
- Well, in a moment I am going to ask you to give one,
to share with us a big idea.
But don't worry, I'm here to help.
I've made for you a presentation to go along with,
the only issue being you've never seen it before.
Ready to go?
- Okay, I think I'm ready to go, yeah.
- Ryan, your first slide.
- The sun.
This thing is hot.
I don't know about you guys,
but I certainly couldn't live there. Next slide.
So all we know on Earth, correct me if I'm wrong,
is that people are apt to lose their hair.
- I think that's fair to say. - Sure.
- Right, so here's my thought.
If we go to the fucking sun,
we shoot on a rocket straight the hell right
into the middle of it,
now listen, I know what you're all saying,
"Too hot, we can't get on there, it might burn us all up."
But, if there's some sort of cool rocket
that will shoot right through all the hotness
- When you say some kind of cool rocket,
- Right. - you mean like,
temperature cool,
not like,
like it's just a cool rocket.
- So glad you asked, no, I do mean a cool rocket,
- Oh, okay, great! - something that's really,
yeah yeah yeah.
I will make a point,
the only thing worth going
to in the middle of the sun is for hair regrowth.
And this is just a model of what I think could happen.
Next slide, please.
Alright,
so there's going to be a couple things we need
to build this cool rocket.
And I'm just gonna run through them all.
You may know these beans,
and that's exactly what we're gonna need, alright?
The cool rocket will run on pinto,
it'll be made out of kidney,
we need lima just for the people to eat on the way there.
- You don't want them eating the rocket,
that's for sure.
- That's for damn sure. - They're gonna be tempted,
if it's a whole bean - Unrelated, unrelated.
—created rocket.
Like, "Hey, paws off the rocket, buddy, you got all the-"
- "Hey, hey, if you're trying to eat some uncooked beans,
that's what we got the bag of limas here for."
- Now I know it's hard to distinguish between the beans
you can eat and the spaceship, which you can't.
- Absolutely, but I want to make clear, our astronauts
will be given very intensive bean training
before the cool rocket launch.
- Are you sure it's easier to give astronauts bean training
than it is to give bean experts astronaut training?
- Next slide.
- Yeah, fuck four and five, next slide.
- Yeah, we don't need four and five.
- Once again, black and mung get the short end of the stick.
- So, all right, we'll be frank with you, all right?
We took this to the government and they were not into it.
The cool rocket confused them,
they weren't as excited as you guys were.
Funding was a huge issue, obviously there's a lot of things
going on in the world right now, they made the argument,
they deserve more funding than the cool rocket and
going to the middle of the sun to grow our hair back.
So that's why I'm coming to you guys
hoping that you will fund this.
We need $45 billion.
- Why did you choose to use an exed-out thumbs up
instead of a thumbs down?
- Great question, so we couldn't secure,
it's a Getty Images, it's a thumbs down,
and we didn't have the licensing rights.
- You already purchased the thumbs up
and blew your budget on thumbs up.
- Now I'm no Photoshop expert,
but is not a thumbs up just an upside down thumbs down?
- You know what, Rekha?
That is so funny, 'cause I didn't even think to do that.
So next slide please.
In conclusion, guys, our work is cut out for us.
I mean, a lot of money needs to be secured,
and so in conclusion, I would just like to ask,
next slide please. - This is your last slide.
- Guys, I will be honest, I rehearsed this presentation
really hard in the thought that there would be a slide
after this, and I think without a visual aid,
I don't feel comfortable truly ending it,
so with that, I just thank you for your time.
- Wow.
Ryan, let's say, uh, 2 points for you.
- Thank you.
- Rekha. - Uh-oh.
- Time for your TED Talk-style presentation
beginning with this.
- Now, Sam, let me ask, where are you from?
- Oh, how-
How dare you.
I had assumed we were safely in another game format.
- There is no bit we will not
run into the ground, Sam Reich.
We will juice every last drop of juice out of a bit.
- You would say, as Trapp so sweetly put it,
that that bit has been juiced to death.
- Yeah, yeah, I think that's safe to say.
I think it's lived it's nine lives.
- Yeah.
Have you guys ever loved something so much,
you just overuse it?
Yeah, okay, next slide.
Well, so has my friend, Devon.
Devon lives with passion, right?
Sounds like a few of you in the audience.
- Cut to a crowd, there's one woman nodding.
- Devon lives life to the fullest.
Devon uses a bit 'till people
issue a restraining order against her.
She goes too hard.
Devon versus everyone else, Devon's heavier.
Because her passion far exceeds
her human form, next slide.
Now, what I'm posing to you
is something so passionate,
that maybe you won't even understand it at first.
You know, we have pride in our country, right?
"Oh, go America, USA, USA."
- Yeah, go America. - Of course, yeah,
every day I say that, yeah.
- Sir, in the audience, you strike me as an Orioles fan.
I'm talking to the redhead.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, absolutely.
- And how would you express that?
- Uh, wearing clothes, I guess?
- Wearing clothes.
Wearing an Orioles hat, perhaps.
What I am suggesting here today,
I think that Americans could use a little more
pride in themselves.
I think that the entire
North Midwest, as I like to call it,
could just have a big ol' baseball hat.
- Is this giant hat gonna have effect on,
you know, the weather, the climate, and
that's gotta have some - Thank you for asking this.
- ecological effects, right?
- Pollution, smog, I don't like these things.
Neither does Devon, and neither do you,
by virtue of the transitive property, you are Devon.
What if we are actually creating a little
control experiment for climate change?
And we're saying,
"We don't want any of that disgusting pollution
from your lower, the lower 45."
So, uh, next slide.
Now,
you asked me how are we gonna make
a baseball hat to express American pride
over states like Minnesota, over states like Wisconsin,
over states like Michigan?
I'll say too, those were key states in the election.
- Mmhmm.
- And that's exactly where I'm going with this.
- Tell me more.
- The only way we can get this project up and running
is if we don't forget to B.A.R.F.
Biden,
And,
Real Financing.
- Mmmmm.
- So we need our figurehead to support this,
and then we need actual money behind it.
- You know Rekha, there is a really odd way
in which that all kinda came together at the end,
I mean, a hat dome as climate change experiment.
I'm not exactly sure how the stove and the
scale fit in, but... - Because this plan
is cookin', and it's gonna bubble over,
and cake your stove.
- You know what?
I was impressed enough by how you turned
that performance around at the end there,
that I will give you the 2 points.
- Thank you.
- That's 2 points for Ryan, 2 points for Rekha.
- Damn, it's a dead heat.
- Mister Trapp.
- Yes.
- Inspire us with your big talk starting here.
- What is a human?
- Hmmmm.
- What makes someone someone?
For ages, we've tried to understand
what is the divine spark inside all of us.
A soul, maybe, that makes us who we are.
And I say to you that, we don't need to
worry about the soul, we need to worry about
the three major parts that make a person a person,
and those are, of course, predominantly skin,
some hair, and a little bit of blood.
- From my estimation, I've got
quite a bit more blood than hair.
- I had the same question.
- That's actually a common misconception.
- Next slide, please.
Now with that being said,
what if a human could be more than just
blood, hair, and skin? - Oooooh yes!
- What if a human could have hooves?
Of course, the dream is always to be the hottest centaur
in the world,
but you know, we're gonna have to start small,
and we're gonna focus on those hooves.
If we can get hooves as a part of the average human,
then we can achieve our true potential.
Next slide, please.
Now,
in the early 1800s, this was an era
of ingenuity and big dreams.
This was the original plan for getting hooves onto people.
The sights were set pretty low, they knew
from like the first major milestones,
they were like, "This ain't gonna happen," right?
Like, they knew we were looking at hooves,
but we thought by 1959, certainly into 1971, that
we could get hooves onto people.
- Is there anything to be said about the confluence
of these initiatives with, like, major wars?
- Hmmm.
- I'm noticing, you know, lots of no's leading up to
World War II, and honestly, uh, wow.
Like, we've got the, you know, the Korean War,
and we've got the Gulf War right at the end
where nobody knows. - Yeah.
War has a way of spurring technology, and
advances in the sciences, unfortunately, do
sometimes occur around major conflicts
as we're looking through it.
And I don't think I even,
I don't think I even need to explain
how hooves would be beneficial on the battlefield,
as I think that's pretty self-evident.
We've seen some setbacks, but I think
as we'll see in our next slide,
there is actually hope for the future.
I want everyone in the audience right now,
I want you all to look at your hand.
Hold out your palm, look at it.
No, you're not imagining things,
it's a little hoof-like.
- I don't see that at all! - Yeah.
- Well hold on, hold on,
I don't think you're
looking hard enough. - Wait, in what way?
- And also, if I was gonna be a centaur,
wouldn't I just get four legs
and my hands would remain the same?
- No, most people assume that, in becoming a centaur,
you would grow a horse, a lower half.
But in point-of-fact, from your shoulders down
becomes horse, and a new torso grows up
from where your neck is. - Oh my God, it's like
horse overalls.
- Yes, exactly. - Yes, horse overalls.
- But yes, if you compare your hands
with the hands of someone from 1800,
you'll see it's significantly more hoof-like.
Our dreams of making a human more than just
skin and hair and blood, but in fact
skin, hair, blood, and hooves, is closer today
than it ever has been before.
- Wow!
Trapp, really well-rounded,
bringing it all together at the end there
for a little bit of an interactive experience,
remaining on message throughout,
I give you the full 3 points.
- Thank you very much.
- Scores as we head into the mini-game are:
Ryan with 2, Rekha with 2, Trapp with 3.
Academics think they know everything.
But everyone has holes in their knowledge.
Today, we're going to play a game called,
"Who's the expert?"
- Mmmm.
- I have invited in an academic to join us,
and have here a list of topics,
each of which one of the three of you is an expert in.
- Hmmmm.
- And you will each have 10 seconds
to convince our academic that you are the expert
on that topic, make sense?
- Okay, I think so. - I think so, yeah.
- Introducing now, a professor of Sociology
at Columbia University, and my brother, Adam Reich.
- Hey!
- Thank you so much for joining us!
- What do you think about the notion of expertise?
- Well, expertise is dead.
- Mmmm. - Okay, and so we
should get rid of the game. - Great, we're,
this is gonna be great for us, yeah.
- The very premise of the game is deeply flawed.
- What do you mean, expertise is dead?
- Trust in expert knowledge is at an all-time low.
Trust in scientific expertise, more generally,
has been declining for the last 30, 40 years.
So all of your expertise is really,
it's all full of shit.
- All right.
Rekha, you have 10 seconds to convince me
that you're the expert in:
"Frasier".
- "Frasier" was a show that was on from 1993 to 2003
starring Kelsey Grammar, David Hyde Pierce,
Peri Gilpin, and Jane Leeves.
It is about a man who lives with his father,
and it is a love story between two brothers,
a father and a son, and a dog.
- And that's it for Rekha,
going to Trapp for 10.
- "Frasier" is a spinoff of "Cheers"
with the character of Frasier played by Kelsey Grammar.
Most of the comedy from the show comes from this idea
of Frasier is a very high-class individual
with his low-class low-brow blue collar father
and the comedy that comes from the interactions between-
- 10 seconds over, Ryan!
- Joe Frazier was a boxer
who took on Muhammad Ali
in the 1980s in "The Rumble in the Jungle".
"Down went Frazier," the iconic phrase
where Joe Frazier, knocked down, knocked out.
Muhammad Ali the winner of "The Rumble in the Jungle"
has gone on to, you know, have a storied career.
- And that is it!
Adam who do you think the expert is?
- I think it's very clear that the expert is Rekha.
- Trapp,
you have 10 seconds to convince me
that you're the expert in:
Vegan Desserts.
- So, the thing with vegan desserts is that
you're gonna have to be,
you're replacing a lot of things like eggs and dairy
that people tend to like in desserts,
but there are a lot of great substitutes
that you can have there.
There's vegan butter, there's coconut oil,
and there's things like chia seeds that you
can moisture-
- And that's it for Trapp!
Rekha, 10 seconds.
- Miyoko's vegan butter is the worst
vegan butter on Earth, it tastes like coconuts,
the other things you can use are
Earth Balance sticks, Earth Balance margarine,
you can also use tapioca flour, you can use
arrowroot starch and all sorts of things
to get a thickening agent into your vegan dessert,
you can also use avocado-
- That's it for Rekha, Ryan.
- Vegan desserts, defeated by Muhammad Ali
in the 1980s.
Down goes vegan desserts, crushed by the strong hands
of the very strong, fast,
"float like a butterfly, sting like a bee,"
Muhammad Ali, "The Rumble in the Jungle".
Iconic in the ring.
- And that is it!
Adam, who do you think the expert was?
- This feels like a trick question,
because there's no such thing as expertise
in vegan desserts, they're just disgusting.
But I'll give it to Mike.
- Damn.
- Fair enough, it goes to Mike.
Ryan, you have 10 seconds to convince me
that you are the expert in:
"The Sims", go!
- "The Sims" is a simulation game where you're a family,
there's a Sims 1, 2, they had expansion packs for both,
then there was 3 and 4 on PC, Mac,
and yeah, it's a game where you build a family
and live out a life on your computer.
- 10 seconds, Rekha.
- "The Sims" is a single-player simulation game
where you can be a character in a family,
you can also have expansion packs,
we have dogs and cats and magic and vampires,
and you can also have a job.
You can go to the Sims at work,
and you can also grow older, starting in "The Sims 2"
you were able to age with your Sim
and they could die of old age or die of starvation,
which is really a fascinating-
- And 10 seconds to Trapp.
- "The Sims" was the winner of "The Rumble in the Jungle",
Muhammad Ali, no one was expecting it,
but there, a little diamond floating right above his head,
those Sims, there's a whole family of them
coming in, just wailing on him.
- And that's it!
Adam, who do you think the expert was in "The Sims"?
- I'm disturbed by Rekha's,
the form of her expertise.
She's killing off characters.
However, it does demonstrate a textured knowledge
of the game playing, so I think I might
have to go for Rekha.
- Adam, well done.
The answer to all three of these was Rekha.
- That's so psycho, Sam.
- Wow.
- I was losing my fucking mind.
- Adam, thank you so, so much.
- Thank you, brother.
Bye everyone. - Bye, nice to meet you.
- The points as we head into round 2 of our game,
Ryan with 2, Trapp with 4, Rekha with 4,
a dead heat.
Ryan. - Yeah.
- Would you inspire us?
- Totally.
- Your first slide being:
- All right, well,
this almost goes without saying, you guys.
- So why say it?
- I don't even need to explain this.
- I think we've all known this for quite some time,
but it helps every now and then,
for points to be reiterated so they don't get
lost in time.
This is your brain on hugs,
and as you can tell by the electricity coming out of it
and the smiles that they're sharing,
it's just absolutely astounding, I mean,
I love it, people love it, and, um,
next slide.
- To be clear, the lightning is good?
- Yeah.
- And to that same effect,
this grim reaper is also good.
In this diagram, we see the intersection of death,
often thought of as a sad thing to be lamented,
thing to be feared.
Cats die.
This woman will die.
- Today?
- Yes, these will both die today.
I have them backstage,
and it is going to happen.
What I want to make clear to you is that
they back there are so afraid, but,
before I came out here,
I hugged them both.
They did say, "Stop, you don't have to do this,"
but they also smiled a little bit,
and that just goes to show, in the face of death,
the power of hugs is enormous.
- Do you know that woman?
- I do, very well, this is my aunt.
Next slide, please.
Now, this is where things go off the path, I think.
You think, "Well, what is the point of this presentation?
Hugs are great, everyone knows that."
I do need to make this clear,
a hug of Santa is a kiss of death.
It's likened to an atomic bomb blast.
There's radiation for weeks, we don't know
what's chemically within him, but,
I beg of you not to hug Santa Claus.
- From what I've understood about Santa,
is that he's nice. - Totally.
- So what is this that you're telling me now
that he'll cause nuclear destruction?
- I'm so glad you brought that up.
So are we familiar with the Grinch?
- Intimately.
- Intimately, great, phen-
- Sexually, yes.
- So in the story of the Grinch,
I mean, obviously, the warmth, the love,
the hugs that he's given grow his heart three sizes.
- Mmmm.
- Santa's heart is already, you know,
as the biggest size in the world.
- Oooh. - He has the biggest
heart ever, and if he is to be hugged,
you know like in "Spider-Man 2", the sun they build?
It's kinda like that, where the hug will explode out
and destroy everything.
- What does this say about Santa's
relationship with Mrs. Claus?
- Very good question.
- Uh-oh.
They ain't getting any action.
- Rekha, that's verbatim it.
They ain't getting any action.
So, take from that what you will,
but it is what it is, next slide, please.
The centerpiece of my argument.
What all of this has been leading up to.
And regrettably,
I think as we can all see,
it's having a little bit of trouble.
In rehearsal, we couldn't get it to work,
so I don't know why I thought it would work now.
Just, suffice it to say, it was a very well-produced
CGI recreation of what would happen
if you were to hug Santa Claus.
And, I mean, the people who did work on it,
I just wanna thank them, 'cause
you guys can imagine
how cool it would've been.
Thank you so much for your time.
- Very well done, Ryan.
I really liked how you managed
to sort of dig holes for yourself,
and then try to scamper on out of them.
I'll give you two points.
- All right.
- The thesis of which, I think I can say is,
we should all hug each other, but not Santa.
- Yes, exactly.
He's a frightening beast.
- Rekha. - Okay.
- Let's hear your big idea,
starting here.
- Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah?
- Hmmmm.
- I think this is gonna be a good one.
- Aren't you guys so tired of small talk?
"Hey, honey, how are you doing?"
"Hi, I'm doing fine."
"Oh my God, how's the weather?"
"Why don't you go outside and check yourself?"
Well I posture to you,
hot dogs are like the small talk of food.
- Ooooh.
- Just something boring and droll,
"Oh, you don't know what to eat?
Pick up a hot dog at the vendor."
It's tiring, and I think we deserve better.
- I see. - It's something
we're settling for.
- Mmmm. - Okay.
- Next slide.
The redhead up front.
- Yeah, hi.
Mmhmm? - You're laughing, why?
- Don't give it to her, Ryan. - Why are you laughing?
Because I would venture to say you laughing
is sort of offensive.
'Cause I think you're laughing
because this duck is in a business suit
and has a nice body.
- That's exactly what I was laughing at, yeah.
- Well that's what I have to say is a common misconception.
That this duck can't exalt itself to be a businessman.
This is what I'm saying.
You're settling for hot dogs.
You're settling for a duck just sitting around,
"Quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack."
You're not believing that anything
can be a level above what it is now.
- I just have a question of clarification.
- Okay?
- What is the misconception here?
- The misconception is that this duck
can't dream about being a man.
- The misconception is that it's a fantasy.
- The misconception is that that should be
in a thought bubble, and not a speech bubble.
- Oh, speech bubble.
- Yes.
- It's not a thought, it is.
Next slide.
So what I'm here today is to tell you that
you can exalt anything in your mind to be at a higher level.
You can achieve more than you think you can.
For instance, redhead in the front.
- Can you please stop picking on me?
- Nope, tell me what this graph means.
- Yeah, you do the presentation.
- What, no, no.
Let me tell you, redhead, you're stuttering.
- I feel picked on.
- There's something deep in your psyche
that feels picked on, that feels lesser than,
that feels you can't explain this graph.
Well I'm here to tell you, even the most
confusing graph that my son put together can be understood.
Look at this graph.
I told my son, "Make something incomprehensible.
Let me trick the audience.
Let me see if they really doubt
their mind capacity that much."
And you all fell for it, and I'm sorry you fell for it.
But I'm here to tell you, you could understand this graph.
Look at this.
All it's saying is that volcanic eruptions
have sort of had a relatively similar level of occurrence
from 1960 to 2010, whereas "Women named Allison"
has been on a relative decline, and then an uptick,
and that these two patterns are unrelated.
- To be clear, you're saying that
this is a silly slide your child made
that you put into the presentation to prove
that anyone can do anything?
- Stand up, sir, stand up.
Stand up, sir.
- Okay, but I'll be out of frame.
- Sir, you are the first person in this audience today
that has chosen to believe in themselves.
That has chosen to look at something confusing and go,
"No, that's possible."
Ducks can wear suits, graphs can mean something.
Next slide, unless this is done.
- No, there's one more.
- Uh-oh.
The only person on my side in this argument
so far has been Adam Driver.
We do phone calls about this.
We're trying to get the word out.
We're trying to get people to believe in themselves,
to believe that they are more than they think they are.
But they think he's bananas.
People think he's bananas.
- Thank you, Rekha, for telling us
very passionately and in a very roundabout way
to believe in ourselves,
I will give you 2 points
for that absolutely insane presentation.
Trapp.
- Let's do it.
- Here's your first slide.
- Folks, there's a problem with society these days
that we've all run into at some point or another.
We've all been invited to a mysterious mansion,
no explanation about why we're there,
no explanation about what binds the other strangers
that are in that room.
Yet, within that house are the
tools of our own destruction.
A candlestick, a rope, a wrench, a gun,
a knife, a lead pipe, not pictured here,
didn't have the money to
get the lead pipe.
These dangers are there, and I do believe
that there is a solution.
That solution is here on our next slide.
Let's take a look.
It's fish, people.
Not fish-people.
It's fish, comma, people.
I'm addressing you.
- You see, I told you.
- The people.
- Dangers lurk everywhere.
And who better to teach us how to
confront those dangers than fish?
Now, it is because of the dangers that these fish face,
one of the oldest, the oldest branches of the Tree of Life
on Earth, they're still living, they're still thriving,
because they know how to confront danger.
Now how, specifically, do fish deal with danger?
Next slide, please.
Well, it's like that joke about
the boy and the water fountain, you know?
- This is one of his greatest,
I've seen him do, I've seen a YouTube video of this joke.
- You love this joke.
- This joke is so funny.
- Film it, film it. - I'm surprised he's
doing it again. - It's a classic, really.
It's classic. - It's hard to beat.
- Boy walks up to a water fountain.
Leans in, presses the button, squirts him in the eye.
"Fuck," the boy screams.
- Whoa, okay.
- "Fuck, shit, ass."
Wipes the water out of his eye.
Leans in for another sip, because
the boy's thirsty.
Presses the button, right in the eye again,
the other eye this time.
- Mmmm.
- Again, stream of profanities the likes of which
a young boy should not know come erupting out of his mouth.
- But he's so thirsty.
- This is the best part.
- Boy goes for a third time.
He leans in, he presses the button,
straight down his throat, right into his lungs,
he drowns.
The boy goes up to heaven.
- Oh, it's still going, all right.
- He's talking to Saint Peter, and he's like,
"All I wanted in life was just a little bit of refreshment.
What's going on here?"
And Saint Peter says to the boy,
"Better than getting it in the eye a third time, right?"
- How is this about fish?
- Now, what does this teach us?
We're dealing with a law of numbers here.
Many people are gonna die as we figure out
what these dangers are, and we figure it,
but someone is going to find the solution.
- Mmmm.
- Someone is going to try something different,
they're gonna find the way to survive,
and then we can all adopt that new strategy and live.
And that's exactly what you're
going to see on my next slide.
- Great.
- Yes.
This is the Pyramid of Time.
Like nutrition, this tells us how we should be
living our lives.
You wanna healthy dose of "is",
the present, all right?
That should be most of your time,
living in the present, assessing the dangers around you.
- Mmmm.
- Also important, the "was".
These are things you've already learned,
these are things you've learned from other people,
who you've seen die.
Then the "will be".
Looking ahead to the future,
what dangers do you see coming down the pipeline?
And finally, the least important,
the "will have been".
A little bit of that future retrospection can be valuable.
People are going to die. - Mmmm.
- But we shouldn't ignore them, we shouldn't
ignore the strategies that they took.
The people dying right now, the people who died previously,
the people you think might die,
and the least important of all,
the people who will have been dead in the future.
Next slide, please.
So,
that was all
just the introduction.
We got a lot more to talk about here.
- What?
- For the comedy value,
I desperately wanna just give you one point.
- Yes, I think, Trapp, for that
absolute Herculean display of nonsense,
I will give you one point.
- That is
totally reasonable.
- The score at the end of our game is
Ryan with 4 points, Trapp with 5, and Rekha with 6.
- Ooooh!
- Rekha,
you get to pick something from the winner menu.
- Oooooh!
- I'll choose the Goldbelly credits.
- Yay. - Goldbelly credits for Rekha.
Trapp, you may pick something off of the loser menu.
- Ooooh, that's fun, let's see.
I always insult Sam, so that's not really that special,
I'll promote something. - Oooh, great.
- Mister Zac Oyama, who you all know from Collegehumor
and from Dropout,
is recording his own live play D&D podcast
called "The Rotating Heroes Podcast".
It'll be, like, a bunch of very short arcs,
where lots of different people are going to be playing.
Ryan, something off of the loser menu.
- Uh, I'll give a virtual hug to my squad real quick.
- Ooooh!
- C'mere you guys.
- That's cute. - Oh, so nice.
- I like it.
- That does it for us here at "Game Changer".
I'm Sam Reich reminding you
that the only difference between
a good idea and a bad idea is all in the presentation.
Good night.
- Good night. - Bye.
- Bye bye.
