I forget how sensitive this community can be, Andrew's first pick was great and I love it 😭

Megan

Andrew was more upset about Gavin predicting his chair breaking then one of his friends getting divorced. Its kind of icky.

Summer

or another season of farscape 🤞🏻

Summer

plot twist: andrew gets married and divorced in 2025 so he can win

Rocky Want Boing Boing

Are you confusing Kiss with…Korn?

Albert H

I’m on Eric’s side about Andrew’s 1st pick.

AEPSchmitt

Read this headline, and for a second thought that Eric had nailed the Oasis prediction: https://www.theguardian.com/business/2025/feb/08/dreams-crushed-as-ticketmaster-cancels-fans-oasis-25-tickets

tsavanii

the moon comes to us is the best thing i've ever heard

Jon Qalbert

I can't possibly be the first person to suggest this, and I'm sure there is no shortage of draft ideas, but saying snake draft at the start made me think "what about a 'snake not snake' draft?" Snake Plissken, Solid Snake, Snake Drafts, Pipe/Drain Snake, Trouser Snake, etc etc

RegulationGraham

I wish one of them predicted that rooster teeth would come back

Chip Clip

Never let Andrew live this down Eric. I’m on your side 100%

Alex Watson

Andrew’s reason for picking divorce isn’t even a good one because marriages may end in divorce half the time but that could be after any amount of time. It’s not like he said 50% end in the first 10 years or something. He was saying it like it’s 50% likely to happen this year but it’s just 50% likely to happen before one spouse dies. If anything the percent is really low because Geoff’s and Gavin’s are fairly recent and I don’t know when nick and eric got married but still not 50% likely that it’ll happen this year. (Side note: may be controversial but I hope no one in the pod gets divorced anywhere in the future)

Anthony Dewitt

Andrew had an insane first pick, essentially with all that hype it up before hand. Arizona is already over a dollar where I live. And specifically where I work, it’s at 2.19 and has been for years. Isn’t there a talking dog already? I remember seeing a husky sorta talking. And a dog that was taught how to use those buttons that speak when you talk to communicate. Edit just did some research and there are a ton of videos of dogs talking on YouTube, some more clear than others but damn lol

RegulationGraham

They can’t invent a new dog and teach it to speak within the same year Eric. You fool

Joe

Was gonna say the same thing. Not exactly the prediction but yeah super sad

Joe

This rules

Ian B.

The ai convincing a human to kill themselves has already have in 2024. It was like an ai girlfriend situation to a teenager, really sad how it happened

Jake Porter-Ward

Love how Erik's horrible mention was Kiss reunites. If you look at download UK 2025 (UKs biggest rock festival) Kiss is headlining Edit:I'm dumb ignore me

ucheehcu

I thought about this as well, but Andrew specifically says "I think one of you four is gonna get divorced", so he excluded himself from the prediction.

Ian Morrison

Geoff is off to a great start with Sabrina Carpenter's swing performance at the Grammys

Kyle Ruiz

I just don't understand if Andrew's divorce pick was 50 % why he wouldn't just pick no one gets a divorce

Lia DeKesthler

Agreed

Lia DeKesthler

My Nostradamus prediction for 2025: We will be in Revolution. You decide what I mean.... ;]

Dustin

Jesus fucking Christ Andrew.... that first pick....

Lia DeKesthler

I'm not usually with Eric on like, anything, but I agree with him on this one. Saying you're playing to win and then making your first pick that one of them will get divorced, yep, you want it to happen. The only defense I can come up with for Andrew, He often does things without thinking about them. ANDREW!

Tilgare

And yet Eric felt attacked. 😂

Dovaknight

in Andrews defense, Marriage is the leading cause of Divorce. just sayin.

AArthriticGamer

That's right! Although 62m people die each year, that is only 0.76% of the world's population of around 8.2 billion

ViciousWarGoose

Statistically Geoff is in the most danger, as divorce rates are much higher for not only older people, but second and third marriages as well.

Sarah

Hahaha maybe!

Alex Watson

Andrew should’ve made his first pick “I’ll become someone’s enemy #1” and then done the divorce pick second.

J

My condolences but can he maybe do it again this year for gavin

B-rad

You are correct. It was a 14 yearold and a Daenerys Targaryen chatbot

Zaryn Dunn

Maybe a stipulation can be added for Andrew, if someone does get divorced, hame HAS to eat the pencil

Zaryn Dunn

Wild card baby!

Zaryn Dunn

Individual stores can pick their own prices and Arizona Tea can't really enforce it.

Zaryn Dunn

I think you care too much

Zaryn Dunn

It's a statistic that's been spread around for like 20 years in movies, tv, Internet.

Zaryn Dunn

Andrew's first pick is fucking hilarious.

Patrick Mcgowan

Lmao. By Andrew's logic, he should have picked 'regulation death,' because 100% of people die.

David Mead

Nick is the mostradamus Nostradamus.

WeeStev0

Big brain play, that's Andrews plan. He is going to get married and divorced just to win this.

WeeStev0

2025 prediction. Trump tries to buy the Internet.

J

on gavin's AI suicide prediction he didn't go with, didn't that happen last year? I don't think it "convinced" the guy but I thought I heard a guy told his AI girlfriend he was thinking about it and it said some stuff about he should and they'll be together then

Jeff Freeman

I think Andrew wins that with his first pick. Love Andrew but that was fucked up.

Tilgare

In this episode we learned that Andrew doesn't understand statistics! A 50% chance of a marriage failing (ever in its existence) does NOT give HIM a 50% chance in the next year. 😂 But that probably wasn't actually the point, and it WAS very, very funny. I love you, Andrew.

Regulation Brenton

I don't at all think Eric's first pick should be allowed, because he's literally 'predicted' something that has officially been announced to happen this year!

Eli Munson

2 of the things on the board have already happened, huskies talk all the time, and arizona already stopped enforcing the rule of only selling at 99 cents.

Eli Munson

Speaking as an autist, this might be the most autistic Andrew has ever been.

Murk

Wait. Andrew specifically forced Nicks hand to chose between winning.. and being a nice guy, (or at least being publicly perceived as a nice guy lol) Hilarious. Your move, Nick.

sugarpuss

Andrew goes for divorce and Gavin JUST got married, that was savage...but what if Andrew got married AND divorced in 2025 to make up for it?

Peter McIlroy

3 picks in and im losing it hahaha

Sarah

My uncle died from being hit by a tennis ball.

Vash583

This comment section is wild. Enjoyed the content!

Adam

What an absolute blindside by andrew for his first choice

WarriorGuero

When was this recorded? A dude was killed in Colorado by a Hammer Throw January 27th so that’s definitely on Gavin!

Eric Bastelak

Eric is 100% correct Andrew's first pick is a cruel and evil pick.

Special Agent Fox Mulder

Balloon Boy wasn't a hoax! Please look up internet historians videos on this! The father proved his innocence and was pardoned!

Katya

um i can't believe they kept andrew's first pick in the video

Brian Burkhardt

Andrew! What a dark start!

Sumbuddy

My prediction is that Dick Van Dyke will live to turn 100 but will die in December before 2026, meaning Geoff technically lost but he will argue “that’s not what I meant”

comment leaver.

I'm going with Andrews predictions.

J

Someone needs to grind up a pencil, stuff it in some food, and send it to Andrew. Que next episode of this, and he finds out he did, in fact, eat a pencil

Mish

Ohhhh okay ty!!! I think it was maybe rumored or something to be $1.29 but they took the Costco route and kept it lol

Kat

I don’t think Andrew has ever deserved a consistent Eric hammering more than this episode

Darth-Jasonus

jokes on you, Seth MacFarlane brought swing back like 12 years ago after he left Family Guy to make movies and record albums like 13 years ago. And having rewatched Dinosaurs recently (when it stealth dropped on Disney +) it's a great show. If we get a new adult sitcom from the Jim Henson Company that'd be rad as

Thomas

I predict avocados cost $8/ea and there is a brief tiktok trend of making fun of poors for not being able to afford chipotle guac, accompanied by articles ridiculing millennials for not being able to afford avocado toast anymore

adaminthewestt

Can’t wait to find out who’s the Mostradamus and who’s the Mostradumbass

Michael

Nick’s picks are the most realistic

Andy Zard

Andrew picking divorce as his first pick is wild and had me rolling 😅

xXxPissxXxRatxXx

I think Nick with be the Mostradamus, this year.

Michael

If Monkey's MRI machine fund gets $500K, Andrew will HAVE to eat the pencil.

CheapCulture

Imagine how noble it would be for Nick to don the Big Red Boots and collect money for charity at the mall.

AArthriticGamer

Someone needs to learn the difference between Nostradamus and Nosferatu. Andrew kept talking about statistics in his divorce pick. Yes, we say that 50% of all marriages end in divorce (it's actually more like 39%), but that means over the life of the marriage. Statistically only 1.46% of all marriages divorce in any given year, so that means that a marriage has a 98.54% chance of NOT divorcing during the year. Even mentioning divorce in a pick is a bad move. Whether or not Andrew gets it or not, Eric is right. Picking that there will be a Regulation Divorce during the year means that you are hoping for divorce. And while were on the subject there is nothing "regulation" about divorce. Mine was probably as "regulation" as one could be and I still had to pay cat support for two years. My picks: 1. The Detroit Lions will win the NFC North for the 3rd time in a row 2. Pro athlete INTENTINALLY kills a crowd member 3. A member of the media invokes the glory days of SNL by uttering the line "you ignorant slut" on live television. 4. Before I give my final pick let me share this from the Google AI "Based on cohort life expectancy tables from the Social Security Administration, white males born around 1950 had a life expectancy of approximately 73 years at birth. Therefore, a white American male born in 1952 would likely have an average lifespan close to 73 years." I was born in 1952 and will have my 73rd birthday on August 30, 2025 (I guess I need to change some passwords after that reveal). Despite this my final pick is that I will not die in 2025. My bonus, hail Mary pick is that there will be a Regulation Baby conceived in 2025.

Btor Sixty

2025 prediction; this draft happens

Btor Sixty

Draft idea: The gang drafts movies with the premise of the main character being replaced by an animal A La Better Man. For example Could you imagine a reboot Captain Phillips movie where instead of Tom Hanks, Captain Phillips is portrayed by a Kangaroo, due to increasing backlash over Phillips' past character in real life. Needed to build a better sentiment over his character, in comes the Kangaroo.

ANEGG

I saw a swing music tiktok 2 minutes after I finished this draft. We are to late to stop it

Danielle Stuhlberg

My prediction is a 2025 Regulation Baby

Gauge Minns

Moon comes to us sent me

Jared Totaro

Right? So disappointing

garret barber

Also second and third marriages make the rate go up. First marriage rates are a little under 40%.

frazafraz

I've gotten to the point with Andrew, where if he says he'll do something, I'll be pleasantly surprised if he ever does. He hardly ever follows through unless it's videogame related.

MaplexSyrup

My Hail Mary prediction is new Mega Man Video Game product. Either collection or whole new game but this is Mega Man’s year.

Joshua Neditch

The thumbnail 😂

Joakim XwIIcK Lundberg

Man1 Nick is better person than i cause i would hit Andrew where it hurts right back if that kind of pressure was put on me xD Thanks for all the hard work on these videos/podcasts lads! Regulation Algorithm comment!

Post Poop Zoomies

Eric is the bulwark against acceptance of Andrew's chaos.

Post Poop Zoomies

This is a good one.

Post Poop Zoomies

Great name

Russell Richardson

My prediction for 2025 is that the regulation podcast will help keep me sane.

Russell Richardson

I hate to say it, but I think the AI prediction already happened. 😞

xXxPissxXxRatxXx

ERIC IS RIGHT!!! Andrew's picks, for the most part, are poxes on NEGG.

Al Myracle-Martin

According to their website it’s still 99 cents: https://drinkarizona.com/pages/about-us#:~:text=Even%20after%2025%2B%20Years,priced%2C%20at%20just%2099¢.

Bert

I thought Arizona tea pulls its product from the store if they raise it above 99 cents?

Bert

Why it’s never gunna happen? You pick stuff you think will happen to win

Stockholm Child Kicker

I would love this

Stockholm Child Kicker

My prediction is that Gracie joins back up with the Regulation

Al Myracle-Martin

I don’t think Andrew understands that 50% divorce rates means OVER THE LIFE OF THE MARRIAGE

Kyle Voltti

if the one who gets the highest number right is the Mostradamus does that make the one/ones who get the least right the Nostradumbass?

John Buffo

...Andrew...👎

Nick K.

Nick can get with Jack and help bring Extra Life back.

windyMelon

Andrew maths is always quite worrying

Noah Fairlie

Does Andrew think that every marriage has a 50% chance of failing every year?

Willie

Man, I think I would be genuinely upset with Andrew's divorce pick. It would definitely take me a moment

nd4spd1919

My prediction is that after more trouble, Geoff has to replace Gavin's car.

Sean Fiore

I needed some super chaotic energy this morning

Nina Kuurasuo

Is Gavin saying the AI will convince the human to "unplug" the AI or is he saying the AI will urge the human to commit s***cide?

Zee Sylvester

Really appreciate Andrew once again taking the role of heel.

Meese Hunter

A classic example of an Andrew what the fuck is wrong with you moment.

DeadColossus

ANDREW oh my god

Sablever

Take this man's Greg Card. Just take it away and let's pretend that first pick didn't happen. That, or have him do an apology video where he eats the pencil.

Diego Higuera

I agree with Eric and Andrew’s first option

Stephen Cevallos

All I can think of as I continue to listen to this is Greg Davies on Taskmaster yelling, “Keep it LIGHT!!!!”.

Stove

The gasp i let out when Andrew’s first pick came out, so excited for this video

Kevin Predmore

Thanks for the source! tbh it is so obviously apparent that half of marriages do not end in divorce every year that I didn't even bother looking it up lol

A98W

I think nick will win this

Chad Jorgenson

7 Minutes in and I want to give Andrew a lesson in statistical probabilities.

Katya

Andrew why😭

Jacob Mullen

Eric to the company

Jared Totaro

They did. This was an invalid pick and I'm excited to see them argue about it

Mish

Didn’t they already raise the Arizona tea price to $1.29??? Or am I just insane?

Jared Totaro

Andrew not eating the pencil is the kind of thing that'd end my friendship with him. Pisses me off every time I hear it.

Gabriel Rosenkoetter

These two comments together are Art.

Gabriel Rosenkoetter

For bonus points: to whom? (Person or category, your call.)

Gabriel Rosenkoetter

Yeah, nobody even asked him for a citation on that. It's nothing close to that. Here are real divorce statistics: https://www.forbes.com/advisor/legal/divorce/divorce-statistics/

Liquor cause I know her

I thought for sure that after Andrews big opening that he was going to pick stuff like people's birthdays or things like that. But for his first pick to be a regulation divorce, oh I'm locked in

Jaimie Allmond

Eric is 100% correct. Because Andrew said “I came to win”, then he wants it to happen, so that he could win. The fact that he chose it first means that it’s the one he believes most. Now I get where Andrew said he doesn’t want it to happen, but his choice says other wise.

Mac199608

I mean what the fuck andrew

ThatoneGuyoverThere33

Holy crap, that was an insane first pick for Andrew

Will Fitzhugh

I just saw a “Eat the Pencil” bumper sticker so I’m 100% in on Andrew eating the pencil.

Nicholas DeMarco

Andrew's first pick...

Jeremy Hixon

Jake Paul's government run will likely also mean getting back on cocaine.

Dylan Denesik

Andrews pick came out like a flashbang

Mikhail Davis

ANDREW! what the fuck!

Animelady501

I was silenced!!!

Ivan Mejia

Andrew does a face reveal should be on the list

Konoe A. Mercury

The thumbnail alone made me laugh so much 😂

Kevin Predmore

Does Andrew think that 50% of married people get divorced every year???

Spummer

Praying for Robbie Williams' good health

Luna Egan

My bet is Andrew gets hitched in Vegas when the boys finally take their trip there, and he’ll be the one getting a divorce

Robert Gibbens

This is where Andrew needs to use his Greg free card.

Sphinx_Jer

Andrew is Savage

Luna Egan

Okay wait Andrew knock it off wtf

Luna Egan

I’m losing my mind. Honestly, that’s a lil gross 😬 I’m usually on Andrew’s side for his weird shit, but this one is icky especially bc two of the guys got married last year 🫣
