It's so difficult to make Grey happy. He wants the cafe to issue the hot-stoppers the way he wants but he doesn't want them to do it because they had heard his complaints and decided to respond according to his wishes. (>.
ZipplyZane I know but it feels like he wants people to hear his reasoning but doesn't want people to act on it at the same time. It's like having a neighbor who complains your music is too loud but doesn't like it when you turn it down when he returns home from work. If I have a neighbor like that, I would go, 'Then what do you want me to do? Continue to annoy you?'
having the pictures in the video is quite useful. its still a podcast but i do like it in the background and then look once in a while if there is a picture
I finally got up to date with the podcast! But Brady made an excellent quiz, and when he gave the average of 19 I was amazed that he got it bang on! Thanks for making an amazing show guys
~1:05:00 This listing question is a little unfair, because "largest to smallest" is ambiguous. Uranus may be more voluminous than Neptune, _but_ Neptune is more massive than Uranus. *Neptune:* 6.3 e13 Km³ & 1.0 e26 Kg *Uranus:* 6.8 e13 Km³ & 8.6 e25 Kg
I'd say it's a screw up with the editing, maybe Brady said "people" or something but the start of the word was cut off. I doubt Grey wouldn't have heard and edited out a detail like that. But you never know, maybe...
if its maths it should be sports because its the same rule. we just flip flop how we both incorrectly apply a rule yay for being consistently inconsistent
Love the quiz show.... you should do that more often... i know it's been done and done by other podcasts, but hey, it wasn't Grey and Brady doing it ;-)
so before i start listening to this podcast i just finished my finals and im super drunk. And now i have another H.I. i am truly in bliss right now...waughuawww
24 year old American - 29.5, quite pleased! Only got half the music, and two of the website questions., one point on the space question, and 7 Speilburg films.
for the movie: it was starship troopers for me. saw it 17 times back then. (one time, we saw it back2back, because they forgot to empty/check the cinema and we just stayed in our seats :D)
scored around 23 points on the Quiz (German, 18 years old). I'm still suprised that it's possible not to know Adele, especially when you live in London. Even if you don't listen to her music you hear her name everywhere :D
me too honestly. I don't think that the brands check the comments of every video so that's a plus but then again there is also the loss of offer code registration stuff that they get a cut of.
I got 27.5 points. So close to Grey. I got: 4 for world leaders 1 for sport 4 for WW2 4 for US landmark 1 for music 2 for mountains 4 for famous wives 1.5 for movies 1 for space (my order was exactly the same as Grey's) 2 for websites 3 for flags
Great show, but I have to admit that I'm a bit bummed out that the Reddit topic for this episode is archived (cannot comment). In lieu of that, I'd like to add that I got 13 points (18 if we can accept answers that were very close: nearly current baseball player (0.5), only planets when ordered (4), and 2006 for the first TH-cam video (0.5)). I really enjoy the podcast, whatever score I get from Brady's quiz.
26.5. Surprised myself by getting points in the movie, music, wives and sports (where I was expecting 0) but doing badly where I thought I'd do well (like Space and Websites).
I'm really quite surprised at CGP Grey not liking purple in general. From people I have talked to, particular "disliked" colors tend to be yellow or orange. And while purple isn't always a favored color, most people seem to either like it somewhat, or at the very least be okay with it.
I'm reasonably happy with my 29.5. Got a woeful 0.5 on the Rushmore round (for some reason I thought they were all founding fathers). Also can we mention how the quiz is actually out of 44
I've learned today that at 4 in the morning I don't know any Spielberg movies;) I guess I'm a below average Tim (18 points). Still, I'm proud of myself that I could name any of Mt. Rushmore presidents (3 in the correct order even) and got all the mountains correct:)
Total score was: 27 Sports 2 Music 1 World Leaders 2 Mountains 4 Space 4 WWII 4 American Landmark 4 Websites 0 Famous Wives 1 Movies 2 BONUS: 3 I think that I did pretty well... I am 12
Better then me on the sports, but I got full points on flags and world leaders, plus I got ten movies, and one website. And I didn’t know bockscar. Also twelve.
I feel like the space one was scored harshly, but here are my results: Total: 10.5 Spoilers under here: World Leaders: 2 (put Tony Abbot as Aussie leader, which is half right. Was previous) Sport: 1 (expected 0) WWII: 2 Famous US Landmarks: 2.5 Music: 0 (expected) Mountains: 1 Famous Wives: 1 Space: 1 (similar thing as Grey, except I got the whole moon thing. Put Titan instead of Pluto, didn't know about Ganymede) Websites: 0 (expected 1) Movies: 0 (expected) Picture Round: 0
Paused after the movie question, wrote down a list, checked my answers, got 8. Started playing the video again, then apparently i'm not allowed to do sequels???? DAMN YOU BRADY, I GOT 8 NOW I ONLY GOT 2
Got 23 points. I feel like on a different day I would have got more than that. I messed up on the football (soccer) world cup question for certain, I was pretty close for the mount Rushmore stuff despite not being American and never visited the US. The film question was brutal, so many famous films and I could have said but struggled with it. So maybe I could have got at best 3/4 more points.
let see how i did: 1) leaders - 3/4 (sorry aussies) 2) sport - 2/4 (thank god for soccer) 3) ww2 - 4/4 (bocks car? lol) 4) Monument - SD ? W,J,?,L.. 3.5/4. sorry Teddy! :(.. and dont ask me how i remember south dakota, bc i dont, i just know that the short handle is SD, but i cant even remember why. probably i heard some way to remember it and only the SD stuck? 5) music - 3/4 (beetles was long before me) 6) mountains - 2/4 (guess which..) 7) famous wifu - 4/4 8) movies - 5/8 -> 2,5/4 9) space - 1?/4 0?/4? didnt get titan and ganymede, but the rest of the order was correct. lets say 1/4. 10) websites - 2/4 (i dont do well with names) B) flags - 3/4 (damn you Malaysia!) 29 if im fair, 30 if im generous.. Wow, thats far more than i thought.. dunno if you underestimate your Tims... or if im getting old by now... to be fair, back in the day when this aired, i probably would have gotten less points overall. less in categories: leaders, Monument, music, websites. more in movies and flags.
ugh I grew up in the Milwaukee suburbs and now live in MKE proper as an adult. i would love.love.love for the people's flag to become the de jure flag. i have a lot of pride in my city and i want something that i would enjoy looking at to represent that part of my identity.
14 points, mostly due to my reclusiveness from news and pop culture, though american news very rarely mentions politics of another nation unless it affects us directly. The ones i did best on: world war 2, wives. The ones i got 0 points on: sports (what is a sportsball?) Websites (It very rarely gets brought up.) Space (that's no moon.)
Ha, for the Mountain question, me and Grey picked the exact same answers, in the same order. Someone run the numbers on the likelihood of that one for me.
I also picked the exact same ones in a different order, honestly they're very well know mountains and the probability that one or the 8k people watching picked the same ones in the same order is probably pretty good. There's no way to give you an exact answer here because you could name any four mountains, but obviously some are more likely to come to mind than others.
I love the need to clarify that with the current state of politics in Australia the date has to be mentioned as the prime minister may change. Since recording the UK hasn't exactly remained a bedrock of stability
Brady, I know this is probably my fault, but on your question on bodies you said bigger (and you where generous with the points). I was confused, because even though uranus is bigger, neptune is more dense, making it more massive (which I mistook for bigger).
So wait, you believe in the possibility that someone at this place you keep going is listening to your podcasts and goes out of their way to change things around to be to your liking and your answer to that is to NOT GO BACK THERE EVER AGAIN? :D
34 year old Brit: 22.5 Points. Annoyed to have thought Mercury was bigger than Ganymede as I wrote it out then deleted it and added Mercury. Still would have got the order wrong.
Idk just a suggest to improve hello Internet. I know in some podcasts I like to hear some conversations but skip over some. would be good for hello Internet podcasts to have like the subject of the conversation at the different times of the podcast in the description? so for example 1:09:13 Brady talks about the solar system or something
Shop doesn't do what grey wants
Grey: Complains.
Shop does what grey wants
Grey: Complains more.
Grey should now make a quiz for Brady. ;)
Definitely.
It's so difficult to make Grey happy. He wants the cafe to issue the hot-stoppers the way he wants but he doesn't want them to do it because they had heard his complaints and decided to respond according to his wishes. (>.
They shouldn't do it because he wants it to be so, they should do it for the sake of logic.. it's perfectly reasonable :p
Rayver112
What if the manager happen to feel Grey's logic is correct, thus head-start the change to set an example for other branches? (^_^)
Can't be sure of that though, now that there's a chance he heard him say he wanted it ^^
Well, he doesn't want him to do it because he heard him mention on his podcast, mainly.
ZipplyZane
I know but it feels like he wants people to hear his reasoning but doesn't want people to act on it at the same time. It's like having a neighbor who complains your music is too loud but doesn't like it when you turn it down when he returns home from work.

I finally got up to date with the podcast! But Brady made an excellent quiz, and when he gave the average of 19 I was amazed that he got it bang on! Thanks for making an amazing show guys
For me too, this was the episode I got up to date with the podcast.
But I got just 18 points.
Grey jinxed Brad and Angelina's divorce. JK... just somebody from the future here.
Maddie Tannie HA! YOU?! FROM THE FUTURE??!!
Battery Level Low HA YOU FROM THE FUTURE
Knowing that Brady listened to Blank Space a considerable number of times just made my day.
~1:05:00
This listing question is a little unfair, because "largest to smallest" is ambiguous. Uranus may be more voluminous than Neptune, _but_ Neptune is more massive than Uranus.
*Neptune:* 6.3 e13 Km³ & 1.0 e26 Kg
*Uranus:* 6.8 e13 Km³ & 8.6 e25 Kg
Thanks! I knew I didn't get the idea that Neptune was bigger from nowhere. (So glad Brady gave an extra point for that.)
A bit late to the party, but if you sort by mass, Mercury is larger than Ganymede and Titan too.
yea because mercury has a large core
DAT SYMMETRY on the Tokyo flag!
It does look a bit logo-ey, but symmetry makes everything better
Oh gosh i wrote down my answers for the Mountains, and Grey said the exact same ones, i feel special.
10:35 did Brady just call CGP grey Paul?!
Holy shit...
that is really true
*mind blown*
I'd say it's a screw up with the editing, maybe Brady said "people" or something but the start of the word was cut off. I doubt Grey wouldn't have heard and edited out a detail like that. But you never know, maybe...
Besides, his name is Collin anyway
"Neptune is bigger than Uranus."
-CGP Grey 2016
better than the other way around..
I just realized that, here in the U.S., we took the S off of _maths_ and put it on _sport_ instead.
if its maths it should be sports because its the same rule. we just flip flop how we both incorrectly apply a rule yay for being consistently inconsistent
29/40
Did NOT expect that. Had 0 in the mountain category, my inner particle physicist got unleashed xD
I am happy with myself :3
And yes, I missed god damn Everest
I really like that you put pictures in the video
Brady, you have made the quiz quite right, I got 19 points!
Average Tim right there!
True story
18 points for me! I am almost average Timothia
Truly average!
we need one more person with 20 to bias out the average!
i got 23
What have you done ;)!
11.5
Thanks to my APUSH class for helping me get some questions right XD
If you listen to this at 1.5x speed Grey actually sounds like he does in his videos
1.25x is a bit too fast at certain points, but this seems more accurate. No offense; good point that he definitely talks faster in his videos.
I've kept the video playing at 1.25x and this may be a better way of listening. I'll have to see.
I watch at 2x speed. Only then do they sound fast enough.
Love the quiz show.... you should do that more often... i know it's been done and done by other podcasts, but hey, it wasn't Grey and Brady doing it ;-)
Wow, listening to the first bit of this podcast after what happened Saturday... RIP Mr Srivaddhanaprabha
Awesome you got one from Dulles. That's a really nice airport.
so before i start listening to this podcast i just finished my finals and im super drunk. And now i have another H.I. i am truly in bliss right now...waughuawww
24 year old American - 29.5, quite pleased! Only got half the music, and two of the website questions., one point on the space question, and 7 Speilburg films.

5.5
Pretty glad considering 5 is my favorite number and I was expecting to get 0. lol
scored around 23 points on the Quiz (German, 18 years old).
I'm still suprised that it's possible not to know Adele, especially when you live in London.
Even if you don't listen to her music you hear her name everywhere :D
wow you guys are pumping out episodes fast! I'm getting caught up and about 6 episodes behind at this point, hope I'll eventually catch up ;)
22.5
From the subcontinent!
scored 0 in music and movies because I dont know much about western music, and movies by their directors.
This was a pleasant surprise to have after i got home from taking Finals.
after advert 1 18:17
after advert 2 34:53
after advert 3 57:22
Thanks. This is just what we need.
upvote upvote upvote
Got a link to the start of the quiz you could edit in?
43:48 announcing the categories
44:49 when he they start ("let's do sport")
thank you
me too honestly. I don't think that the brands check the comments of every video so that's a plus but then again there is also the loss of offer code registration stuff that they get a cut of.
Grey told us this story in one of the first 10 or so episodes of HI with his father at the new York Yankees
I got 27.5 points. So close to Grey.
I got:
4 for world leaders
1 for sport
4 for WW2
4 for US landmark
1 for music
2 for mountains
4 for famous wives
1.5 for movies
1 for space (my order was exactly the same as Grey's)
2 for websites
3 for flags
Great show, but I have to admit that I'm a bit bummed out that the Reddit topic for this episode is archived (cannot comment). In lieu of that, I'd like to add that I got 13 points (18 if we can accept answers that were very close: nearly current baseball player (0.5), only planets when ordered (4), and 2006 for the first TH-cam video (0.5)).
I really enjoy the podcast, whatever score I get from Brady's quiz.
23/40
Taylor Swift and Nanga Parbat pushed me almost in the mid-twenties ;-)
whoa, seeing this on youtube before i see it in PocketCasts
22 points, I am quite proud of myself^^
24 points as a 17-year-old Canadian.
I was essentially neck and neck with Grey up until U.S. landmarks and flags stopped me short.
I'm disapointed in how many he missed in the music category
This opening is amazing...
Thank God Brady said the date of the podcast and I'm Australian. Managed a 28 so was pretty happy.
I can't believe Grey doesn't know who Adele is
I'm doing my homework while listening
26.5. Surprised myself by getting points in the movie, music, wives and sports (where I was expecting 0) but doing badly where I thought I'd do well (like Space and Websites).
I just want an hour of Grey saying the word purple
yay my favourite two dudes talking :D
Were there more chimes than usual, because it really feels like it.
As a 21 year old Mexican I'm pretty satisfied with 24.5/44 considering some of these questions are very... 'Merican and European
20 year old American
I got 9 points... don't judge me to harshly...
I like purple :c
I like purple too.
Pajama Senpai only 16.5 for me
Edit: 19.5 so not bad
I like purple too.
I got 12, assuming it was 1 point per flag name, but I'm not sure what the thing to do there was. Without it, I got 10
at 59:00 where they make a joke about the australian leader constantly changing just after talking about cameron is hilariously ironic
Interestingly enough, Wikipedia's featured article today is Paul Collingwood, so I too got away with a sneaky point.
I'm really quite surprised at CGP Grey not liking purple in general. From people I have talked to, particular "disliked" colors tend to be yellow or orange. And while purple isn't always a favored color, most people seem to either like it somewhat, or at the very least be okay with it.
I wrote a school report on Robert Scott (1 month ago) and only on this episode remembered who he was, since brady explained the story.
I've got the space round completely correct... I'm so proud of myself. 28.5 total points
I did not expect a visual Easter egg from the video
The earliest I've ever been!
I don't even understand which part of starlight is hard to clap along to, but then again, I am a "music person"
That was fast for getting the video up. I bet grey had changed his checklist
31.5, happy with the performance
I was convinced the City of Tokyo flag was the flag of Greendale Community College.
"[steven speilberg] certainly didn't direct ET."
:^)
I can name - Johnson! For sure there will be a baseball player named Johnson! Bananas :)
my important case stalks around The Sydney Opera House
I'm reasonably happy with my 29.5. Got a woeful 0.5 on the Rushmore round (for some reason I thought they were all founding fathers). Also can we mention how the quiz is actually out of 44
Sixfilam
No
I've learned today that at 4 in the morning I don't know any Spielberg movies;) I guess I'm a below average Tim (18 points). Still, I'm proud of myself that I could name any of Mt. Rushmore presidents (3 in the correct order even) and got all the mountains correct:)
Total score was: 27
Sports 2
Music 1
World Leaders 2
Mountains 4
Space 4
WWII 4
American Landmark 4
Websites 0
Famous Wives 1
Movies 2
BONUS: 3
I think that I did pretty well...
I am 12
Better then me on the sports, but I got full points on flags and world leaders, plus I got ten movies, and one website. And I didn’t know bockscar. Also twelve.
at last, actual information in the video
24.5/25.5 depending on if you count the free space point. I feel pretty good about that :).
I AM WASHING THE DISHES!!!!!!!
Charity youtube poker game. Must happen.
I feel like the space one was scored harshly, but here are my results:
Total: 10.5
Spoilers under here:
World Leaders: 2 (put Tony Abbot as Aussie leader, which is half right. Was previous)
Sport: 1 (expected 0)
WWII: 2
Famous US Landmarks: 2.5
Music: 0 (expected)
Mountains: 1
Famous Wives: 1
Space: 1 (similar thing as Grey, except I got the whole moon thing. Put Titan instead of Pluto, didn't know about Ganymede)
Websites: 0 (expected 1)
Movies: 0 (expected)
Picture Round: 0
Paused after the movie question, wrote down a list, checked my answers, got 8. Started playing the video again, then apparently i'm not allowed to do sequels???? DAMN YOU BRADY, I GOT 8 NOW I ONLY GOT 2
nice!
The Great Hot Stopper Conspiracy Theory of 2016.
Got 23 points.
I feel like on a different day I would have got more than that. I messed up on the football (soccer) world cup question for certain, I was pretty close for the mount Rushmore stuff despite not being American and never visited the US. The film question was brutal, so many famous films and I could have said but struggled with it. So maybe I could have got at best 3/4 more points.
I had the exact same wrong solar system list as Grey
let see how i did:
1) leaders - 3/4 (sorry aussies)
2) sport - 2/4 (thank god for soccer)
3) ww2 - 4/4 (bocks car? lol)
4) Monument - SD ? W,J,?,L.. 3.5/4. sorry Teddy! :(.. and dont ask me how i remember south dakota, bc i dont, i just know that the short handle is SD, but i cant even remember why. probably i heard some way to remember it and only the SD stuck?
5) music - 3/4 (beetles was long before me)
6) mountains - 2/4 (guess which..)
7) famous wifu - 4/4
8) movies - 5/8 -> 2,5/4
9) space - 1?/4 0?/4? didnt get titan and ganymede, but the rest of the order was correct. lets say 1/4.
10) websites - 2/4 (i dont do well with names)
B) flags - 3/4 (damn you Malaysia!)
29 if im fair, 30 if im generous.. Wow, thats far more than i thought.. dunno if you underestimate your Tims... or if im getting old by now...
to be fair, back in the day when this aired, i probably would have gotten less points overall. less in categories: leaders, Monument, music, websites. more in movies and flags.
Wow, they're talking about our Flag.
Grey said he was living in the future in 2017
Meanwhile I’m listening to this in 2018 lol
ugh I grew up in the Milwaukee suburbs and now live in MKE proper as an adult. i would love.love.love for the people's flag to become the de jure flag. i have a lot of pride in my city and i want something that i would enjoy looking at to represent that part of my identity.
Message from the future here: Is this the first crossover between sports-ball corner and plane crash corner? (re: Leicester City helicopter crash)
The tokyo flag looks like it could be XANA 2.0 from code lyoko
I got Grey's estimated score, 23.5!
14 points, mostly due to my reclusiveness from news and pop culture, though american news very rarely mentions politics of another nation unless it affects us directly.
The ones i did best on: world war 2, wives.
The ones i got 0 points on: sports (what is a sportsball?)
Websites (It very rarely gets brought up.)
Space (that's no moon.)
Ha, for the Mountain question, me and Grey picked the exact same answers, in the same order. Someone run the numbers on the likelihood of that one for me.
I also picked the exact same ones in a different order, honestly they're very well know mountains and the probability that one or the 8k people watching picked the same ones in the same order is probably pretty good. There's no way to give you an exact answer here because you could name any four mountains, but obviously some are more likely to come to mind than others.
I love the need to clarify that with the current state of politics in Australia the date has to be mentioned as the prime minister may change. Since recording the UK hasn't exactly remained a bedrock of stability
Best podcast ever :]
Brady, I know this is probably my fault, but on your question on bodies you said bigger (and you where generous with the points). I was confused, because even though uranus is bigger, neptune is more dense, making it more massive (which I mistook for bigger).
I was tied with grey (on different questions) right up to the flags. :( Curse you flags!!!. lol
So wait, you believe in the possibility that someone at this place you keep going is listening to your podcasts and goes out of their way to change things around to be to your liking and your answer to that is to NOT GO BACK THERE EVER AGAIN? :D
34 year old Brit:
22.5 Points. Annoyed to have thought Mercury was bigger than Ganymede as I wrote it out then deleted it and added Mercury. Still would have got the order wrong.
I got 26 & 1/2; what did you guys get?
Idk just a suggest to improve hello Internet. I know in some podcasts I like to hear some conversations but skip over some. would be good for hello Internet podcasts to have like the subject of the conversation at the different times of the podcast in the description? so for example 1:09:13 Brady talks about the solar system or something
I scored 29.5, which I'm pretty satisfied with.
I exceeded the expectation for average Tim by 1/2 point (Jurassic Park was the ONLY movie I got)
The test was fun.
Also, is Brady okay? I know Grey is still alive thanks to Cortex, but I haven't heard a word from our caveman in ages.
31. Though I gave myself one Brady point for getting a moon in the solar system bodies question.
Heck yeah, I got 26. Close to Greyness
Out for an hour, this has 9 comments. The full album (phone calls-the shivers) I have open in another tab has 3 after 9 months
Shivnarine Chanderpaul!!!!!
As a 19 year old dutchman I'm quite happy with 27
28.5 points! I don't know if I should feel quite so proud of myself, but...
