....I knew it ;) A short jog. Some jumping jacks. Just tell your body it needs to be ready is all. lol
Gregulous
The droop would snoot
Amy Woolner
I had no idea the hurt tunnel thing is a British thing, I thought everyone did this? You all take it in turns to run though a tunnel of people kicking you
Chris Courtney
V for Vendetta would make a excellent movie for Patreon to watch
Alex Meyer
I've listened to this episode a few times, and am always confused by Andrew saying "sick" is related to poker lol
Keira
I think for the movie blurbs they should each record for their own movies, then spin a wheel to assign to someone else. That person re-records it.
John Bott
Nick at the end was hilarious 😂😂
Joey King
Now Im curious to hear Geoff’s take on AD/Luke Doncic trade
Brian Burkhardt
Literally.
Brian Burkhardt
The V for Vendetta movie literally opens with a recap of the real Guy Fawkes event. Literally how it starts.
Malignant Toaster
Yummy yummy
Malignant Toaster
Yeah the Eye on the tower was pretty much made up for the movie as a way to symbolize sauron's gaze
Nova
V For Vendetta is my favorite movie what the hell?
Cookii
Both Stinky Dragon and Regulation Pod this week talked about Lord of the Rings, the Grinch and Mario… wild ! 🧐🧐
Kobe Fellows
I love how rent free the Lakers are in Geoff's head 😆 But his takes are getting a little too far fetched for me, love ya Geoff, but please sharpen up those NBA takes, I do love your input but the Celtics bias shows a lot more sometimes 😂
Arielle G
Nick is so easy to make nicknames for..... is that why they call it a NICKname?!?! 🤯
RegulesC
V for Vendetta definitely felt very "Matrixy" I can actually understand Andrews line of thinking for once.
Chip Clip
If you count all of the leap year days, Betty White would have been 100. She lived a full life

THE SNOOT DROOPS‼️
StoneRyno
Gavin also = Knowstradamus with how often he’s throw out a random facts that sounds made up
Kristyn Beard
Hello there! Am pole dancer. Can confirm it's often painful but the move described here probably sounds more painful than it is
Matt Willyard
Every time Gavin brings out a clip, I can almost always say what did Andrew say now
Jeff
V for Vendetta is so good. Its message feels a tad more relatable these days. Also man y’all are right, all of us LotR fans pulling our hair at that convo lol. Other comments mention the tower and eye and ring. Rings of Power is a perfectly fine show, its taken tons of lore snippets and details from the Simillarion and other Tolkien books and expanded some one line statements into full plots. Season 2 was a big upgrade imo.
Amber Roper
That I can understand
Kris
I have one but I want to attempt to get one for a friend who misses every merch drop
Scythe
Raspberries with blueberries inside them are really good. You freeze them together and you can throw them on anything
windyMelon
The business move for the Gurplers is to release holiday themed versions. So a red and purple one for valentines, black and orange for Halloween etc. I would absolutely buy one of each to complete the collection. Then I get to use that special one whenever the event comes up
Katya
9/10 episode, the sports talk was bringing it down for me but then Geoff pulled out A CHAPE?? Completely unexpected. Amazing stuff
adaminthewestt
Vintage literally comes from the French words for ‘wine’ and ‘remove’ meaning age. lol
Reese
V for Vendetta is a fantastic movie.
Clark Sturdevant
Gavin = Noseferatu
Daniel McGrotty
V for Vendetta is awesome. It’s ridiculous and badass. What’s not to love.
Jacob Collier
54:20 I think Gavin was getting bullied and didn't realize it.
Folds2008
Glossing over the falcon was actually a hawk, is hurtful
Piecez14
Missed opportunity to call it a GRAWberry
Roger Flynn
Everyone go to 41:09, set the playback speed to .25, and look at the bottom-ish right of the screen. What is that?
Amber Roper
I would also like to say, I did have a chance to touch a Gurpler but only because my last order I ever got from rooster teeth was accidentally sent to another person and their order was sent to me and their order had a Gurpler in it. We were able to get each other's packages sent to the proper person so I never got to look at the Gurpler, I just held it while it was still until a package bag :')
Sam
Heard! I've got my one.
Sam
10 out of 10 episode!
Amber Roper
For. The love. Of GOD! If you've gotten a Gurpler in the past PLEASE DONT BUY ANOTHER T-T I've missed EVERY drop, both of the F**kFace drops and the drop last year due to never having the funds to get one. Please 🥺🙏
Sam
WHAT IS THE TOWER FOR THEN?
Sam
WHAT
nick hemley
Gotta love that Droop Snoot not only sounds cool as a nickname, it's also a legit technical name for an aircraft feature. Way to go Droop Snoot!
Sarah Dawn Richardson
I definitely thought Andrew thought Nostradamus was Nosferatu when I listened to that episode. I am still not 100% convinced he actually knows they're two different people.
AngelG93
Poker has an exceptional amount of phrases that have made it into common language. Pass the buck, hands on the table, know when to fold them, bluff, poker face, pocket aces, there are so many
mitzt
Nickname draft should be structured like the dogs and cream draft with each round allowing people to draft one pair of person and nickname that isn't themselves making sure to get a nickname for each person.
Samuel Oustache
are they wilfully misunderstanding andrew's point about v for vendetta/matrix?
GolinSoul
clearing nov 2025 we need to have falcon watch along of V for vendetta
Max
Who’s Frodo?

The tunnel beatings game that gav mentioned was called "tunnel of death" in my school. You'd play a game of "one bounce" or "one touch", (basically passing a footy between a group in a big circle), and anyone who failed to successfully complete a valid pass then had to run (or crawl) through a tunnnel made by all the other players lined up on both sides, who would kick the absolute piss out of you. Fun times great memories no longlasting trauma.
Tritonon
Who wants to tell the guys that in the books there is no eye on top of Barad-Dur?
Shane Waldron
Hurt tunnel must of been a England school game cos I definitely still remember getting battered in primary school 😅 Also Snoot where I grew up was slang for whatever thing you where using to snort some less than legal substances
Russell Richardson
V for vendetta is stupid fun. I’m surprised they don’t love it. There’s no substance there, but it’s hella cool😂
ViciousWarGoose
That is way too much. He needs to seriously look into getting a bidet if that is his normal usage.
Fungal
Look up the Russian Concord, tu-144. It has the fun drup snoot but it has canards that look like ears
Jake Matthew
Am I wrong or did Gavin say he would use a quarter of a roll for one poo session?
Alex Watson
Bovril Bogroll
Nicole Garcia
So for Valentine's you guys are giving us a BBC (big black cup)? 😂
Tim Lyen
I like how the further Geoff got into the fruit segment the more it just became "fruit salad"
ViciousWarGoose
So, oddly enough I work with 'vintage' collectables and wine, so I know about both. Generally to qualify as 'vintage' for something like clothes or furniture or décor it has to be 20 years old. For wine, there is a 'vintage' every year, but the term 'vintage year' comes from special wines like champagne and port, where they only put the year on the bottle when it is a particularly good year. For the cars, in AZ a car qualifies for a Historic Vehicle plate at 25 years.
Jacob Mullen
8.7/10
Jeremy Hixon
If there are Gurlplers left over after everyone that wants one has gotten one I'll buy more.
raychle
fun fact about guy fawkes: he is the origin of our use of the word "guy." after that whole deal, people began using "guy" to describe someone negatively (e.g., "wise guy")
Alex Watson
Didn’t you guys talk about guy fawkes recently? Like didn’t someone say it’s weird to celebrate something not happening?
Dirk Van Daele
Plot of V for Vendetta is that in modern times a "good" terrorist fight an extremist UK gouvernement. He got his inspiration from Guy Fawkes and his ultimate goal is to blow up parliament. The movie explain all this including who Guy Fawkes at the start of the movie. So Andrew has no excuses. It is and interesting film, certainly in this times. The mask is now a symbol for Anonymous, so I would not mess with it.
Joakim XwIIcK Lundberg
Regulation Algorithm comment! Thanks for all the hard work on these videos/podcasts lads!
ScoobDrew
The most unexpected part of today's podcast for me was when Eric said, "We can't Skwink today." And Andrew not answering with a mouthful saying, "what?"
Randy Brock
Recommendation for the draft rather than drafting for each other. Everyone could draft the nicknames that they want and then at the end everyone else picks from their draft pool like the one that the individual picked a nickname for them, but the catch being at the end of the draft you still have to pick nicknames even if you don’t like the ones that remain so you’re still going to have crap nicknames per opinion per individual, but you get to pick the overall like pull of nicknames that yours is chosen from and then the other four vote on your pool
SnowOrShine
*Inhales* The ring just makes you more of whatever you are, so if Gandalf had put it on he'd have become some kinda Ultra Wizard, it just happens to only have been worn by hobbits in the books who are naturally smol and sneaky so they turn invisible so yes it was actualy Sauron in the armour at the final battle which I assume we'll see at the end of the rings of power, after which he gets turned into a spirit who eventually re-forms as a giant eye at the top of barad-dur
CloudyVro
You can't pick your own Nick name
Maddy
They really need new intro music
Kyle V
GEOFF ATE PEEPEE FRUIT
Alec Lothian
The Concorde conversation the day after the XB-1 flight yesterday is just impeccable timing
Kyle V
Jayson "we did it" Tatum fans don't like this
samuel, hallball, killhall
Gef should just bring Eric on "so ...all right".
samuel, hallball, killhall
I'm with Andrew about the movie thing, also, Eric bringing up if Grinch is in the same universe as the minions. Completely different topic and completely different scenario all together. And the answer would be yes, the main reason if because it's the same studio AND art style
A98W
And I think you should all run the gauntlet
A98W
The hurt tunnel that Gavin is on about was called running the gauntlet in my school
Jacob Hoover
10 out of 10 ep. Highly recommend The Silmarillion for the lore. Most audio books are also narrated by Andy Serkis! 🏗👁
Brosao
Yeah I hate when Andrew does the clueless bit to an obvious extent. Just saying dumb shit to try an be funny. Did not work this time, just cringey
Preston Collins
“It’s what the Lakers have done for the last 5 years who can’t build anything” - big talk from a guy who’s a fan of a team that has the exact same number of titles in those 5 years
Mick 16
Geoff putting his name forward as one of the greatest lab technicians of our time. Hes even working on a puzzle there. Truly outstanding
Summer
Alan Howard is my birthday twin. 7.86/10 andrew bumped it up at the end with his clever wordplay.
Mick 16
This podcast opens with an unprecedented amount of Andrew being right with the Nostradamus trap, the wachowsky connection, you can even stretch it with Saurons eye technically cause its closer to a fire proyection thingy than an actual eye, you wouldnt carry it
Littleroot Lessons
They’re literally the reason I started watching baseball.
Dave Blankenship
Who else wants a show with Eric and Geoff talking about sports? Genuinely gets me into watching more sports when I listen to them talk about it
Alan Reynolds
Speaking of sad math, the gap between WW2 and the first Star Wars release is less time than between Star Wars and now.
Dylan Daniels
erics nickname should be droop snoop
Darth-Jasonus
oh, the Tolkien nerd in me is chomping at the bit to lore-dump, but; like the Silmarillion itself, it's A LOT... So SHORT version: the eye atop the tower is a contrivance of sir Peter Jackson's films to visually get across the metaphorical all-seeing fire-wreathed eye the books speak of, Sauron was physically present until Isildur cut the ring off, then he was just spiritually hanging about in the world, he had a neat apartment in Greenwood before the neighbourhood went downhill and he got kicked out by the new landlords Gandalf and Co. before finally going back to Mordor and re-building his tower, where he chills at the top and observes events through his captured Palantir and his many spies (he is a fallen angel, so he can also just do magic, like see far across the world, but he can't see everything at once or fully understand all he sees, e.g. he knows his enemies have the Ring, he just has no idea that their plan is to destroy it until it's far too late.)
Marcel
I could type out an entire essay about the Sauron questions. But I feel like this is the exact moment when an army of new comment leavers is born by the thought "I couldn't take it anymore"

I'm sorry... I love you.... Gavin and Andrew .....but, when you two are having a conversation like at 1:30 it hurts my god damn brain!!!!!

Right now, we're further from when the original Lion King came out, than the Lion King was, from the moon landing (allegedly).
