I like how jordan correctly identified the olgoikhorkhoi as the mongolian death worm and then severely forgot where mongolia is on the map
Yeah I wanted to see a penalty for that haha. I did wonder if maybe the magnet just slid down a little.
Also I think one of the others mentioned something "near Japan" but it was in Southeast Asia.
“That’s my Mongolian death worm right there, so obviously Mongolia.”
(Puts it in Southeast Asia)
Yeah not even close LOL.
@@Uncle_T Just like "maybe in the Japan region" for something on Indonesia, "maybe Egypt" for something down around Ghana, "Greece" for what was covering France and Germany... They are BAD at geography.
This question does NOT concern real life skills
@@ethanbuttimer6438 It does however concern geography
@@Deus_Almighty since when nerds know real life geography. I have no clue what name my street I live in has, but I can draw Hogwards from memory.
Finally someone buzzed in and corrected without hearing what needed correcting, that should be bonus points
Especially a thing that was veeeery close to a thing mentioned in the part of the question they did hear.
He pulled a nerdy Joseph Joestar
Here's the thing, he clearly thought the portal to another dimension part was wrong, so he barely squeaked out of that one with the point he did get haha.
Um Actually, Jon Gutierrez doesn't say "shitty asshole" before the end of the episode.
All points forfeit!
Game over
Maggie out here making a Princess Diaries reference in a room full of nerd bros & they react with utter silence. I felt that in my soul
I sang the bit 🤣 Stupid Cupid quit picking on me! 🎶
That's definitely the feminine nerd arena. My ex made me watch the sequel several times.
Because Chris Pine.
@@PanAndScanBuddy Can you blame them.
Its Chris Pine
Nerd bros is my favorite phrase I've learned in awhile.
I'm a male nerd (if not exactly a "bro") and I've seen the movies several times each and enjoyed them... but I have no idea who Mandy Moore is.
15:10 Ah yes, Denmark, famously known as "The Greece Area".
She just kinda slapped it across all of Europe cause those stickers or whatever are really big
As a geography nerd during the cryptogeography , hearing them announce that they put a creature in country, and their creature is no where in that country was difficult
My favorite country in Southeast Asia is Mongolia
Yeah, holy shit that was painful.
i’m awful at geography but even i cringed at the “serpopard sounds african, probably egyptian” and then putting it in mali
Maggie: “Jordan you should buzz in BEFORE you hear the thing that’s wrong”
Jordan (two turns later): “Um actually they’re concussive blasts”
He took Maggie's advice to heart
I love it when they explain what country they think the creatures might be from but they put it somewhere else on the map
I know! Egypt =/= Chad and Mongolia =/= Nepal!
is it their fault or is it the american education system's fault?
They are American.
@@uuh4yj43 it's their fault, the map was very clearly tagged with the names of countries, it honestly bothered me more than it should when he put the Mongolian death worm in Vietnam and proceeded to say the correct answer
I love that she put the flying head thing in the "Greek area" wich of course everyone knows is in the Northern Sea... Yay for the US education system
As the saying goes "Who knows? Not Harry." - We just accept the wizarding world as he sees it.
I would be fine with not knowing how certain aspects of the HP-universe work or them not making much sense.
I am not fine however, with JK Rowlings attempts to make them make sense and trying insert logic in a world that is not suited for it. Especially since her attempts at explaining things often make things worse.
Meaning he was friends with Hermione for 7 years and either he never found out her parents' names, or JK just never told us.
@@wjzav1971 The Pottermore team is doing an admirable job coralling her impulses and squeezing a sort of sense out of the canon though. I know some people on their staff, and they hate Rowling's Twitter account more than you do.
18:53 - I got it! Body of an otter, tail of a beaver, beak of a duck... with spines on the back of its legs. Yeah. Nobody will believe that's real.
And get this- it lays eggs!
And it glows!
AND it wears a battered old 1940's fedora.
I assume that this mythical creation of yours doesn't do much?
@@ccggenius Nonsense, it's quite effective as a secret agent.
Um actually, Cyclops doesn't only create the apertures when he opens his eyes. The apertures are constantly open and releasing energy but his body generates a counteractive field which means the beams can be blocked by his eyelids when he closes them
The dimension is also literally called the punch dimension.
Precisely. He also used to be able to control the opening/closing but suffered a head injury and lost the ability to close the apertures. Its also why the rose quartz glasses stop the beams, they resonate at the same frequency of his body and work similarly to his eye lids.
Man, what happened to the good old days of people just being able to shoot laser out of their eyes for no reason?
All members of his family are apparently able to generate the couteractive field as well.
@@CommonApathy Am I gonna get hate for hypothesizing that that's where One Punch Man is from? (I don't know anything about X-Men... I DO know that One Punch Man is an anime and has no relation to X-Men. 😅)
I can confirm that discussion about the castles monster-maker is exactly what it feels like to be a creature designer. For me, it's "nothing will ever beat the Frogalope".
I'm interested in your religion 😂
Fun fact: You made fun of the smell of lasers... but wolverine has enhanced sense of smell and has on occasion, smelled the existence of trip lasers and warned the team. So ya, apparently in the x-men universe, lasers do indeed have a smell. Not to mention, wolverine has a grudge against cyclops and might actually be the one to call him on it.
um actually wolverine is not smelling the laser but the atmosphere burning, ergo the effect of burning nitrogen and oxygen with some noble gasses.
@@Myrmonden wouldn’t that be the smell of the laser?
@@Trevin_Taylor no what does a laser smell like?
What you smell is how it changes the molecules around it.
@@Myrmonden which would be the smell of the laser...
@@Trevin_Taylor no. That is not the laser smelling but i.e the oxygen burning. What you are smelling is Oxygen not the actual laser.
I love getting a Gootz origin story. I think he is one of the best players on this show. He is just so knowledgeable and not to obnoxious when he gets a correct answer.
Um Actually, the difference between ghosts and poltergeists is that ghosts were alive at one point and poltergeists were not. For example, Peeves is the spirit of rebellion and breaking the rules at Hogwarts. As long as students break the rules at Hogwarts, Peeves will exist. Ghosts are just dead souls that stayed in the realm of the living.
Do I get a point?
Also ghosts in the HP work can not affect their surroundings, where as Peeves (and I assume other poltergeists) can... such as throwing water balloons at students.
That makes it sound more like Peeves is a god than a poltergeist.
@@notednuance Not to go too scientific, but if they speak, they must be causing disturbances and vibrations in the air particles, that's how sound travels. So they can affect *some* physical entities, just to a very small degree.
@@levtokol8649 Unless you can hear them cause... magic! Hard to say since the books don't get in to why you can hear them but they are not affected by doors, walls, or evil diaries being thrown by angsty teens. There is a chance JK does not understand how sound works. What we do know is that Peeves can wreck stuff and ghosts can't.
Umm actually, NotedNuance is right poltergeist (lit. noisy ghost), are spirits who can manifest themselves to interact with the physical world. They are technically a category of "ghosts"
I have a fun tidbit about the serpopard! In medieval English texts, there is a monster called the Questing Beast which is described as having the head and neck of a snake, the body of a leopard, the haunches of a lion, and the feet of a deer. Seems odd that the same creature would appear in Egyptian mythology and Arthurian legend, right? Well, historians think most weird descriptions of creatures in medieval texts came from people seeing weird animals and having to describe a misremembered image through their frame of reference. They were all trying to describe a giraffe.
Makes sense, there was also tales of giant hairy men and it was just gorillas.
It's a fun idea but I find it hard to believe no one ever thought to just say "a horse with a stupidly long neck and leopard spots"
and the head of a snake seems wildly inaccurate
@@combogalis It's not impossible that no one did, but consider. This is before the printing press, information is shared primarily through word of mouth and stories change in the telling. Also, it's important to remember that stretching the truth is not a modern invention, the more fantastical your discoveries are, the more funding you'll get from your patron. Historical bad science is plentiful, just look at Pliny the Elder's Natural History, in which plenty of bizarre assumptions about animals are taken as objective fact despite being easily disproved with observation.
i feel like Gutierrez has been on many times and each time he's on he's introduced as if he were new.
they're flexin
I saw the thumbnail and immediately clicked. Love me some Maggie Mae Fish.
Yeah. I could listen to her just trashing Zach Snyder for the rest of my life and I wouldn't be unhappy.
@@WalkoffGrandslam we need the Fish cut (fillet) of part four of the Snyder saga.
Beat me to it. I see Maggie I click, no questions asked.
@@0cramoi fellow person of taste, love to see it 🐟
Ah, here are some fellow Fishies.
Um Actually, while Jordan did say the Olgoikhorkhoi was from Mongolia, the instructions for Cryptogeography are to "Place" the monsters in their country of origin.
Real life fact: nutritionists like for food controlled diabetics to try to adhere to eating every 2 hrs (waking hrs, obviously), to help control bg spikes and keep levels as low and steady as possible.
Hobbit mealtimes always reminded me of this 😁
Um actually tiny hummingbirds need to eat VERY frequently while awake or they will die. It may just be that halfling sneed to eat more often because they are small and have fast metabolism
19:45 Pokemon DO die, in gen 1 Lavender Town has a whole cemetery
But not by loosing their hp
@@miguelfigueroacendoya You straight up kill Gary’s Raticate in gen 1. Also if you count the movies, pretty sure Pokemon have died before, specifically Latios. The working theory is that once they faint the trainer is able to carry them to the pokecenter and have them healed. Gary didn’t have enough time while debarking the SS Anne
@@matthewbrown9086Blue's raticate dying is a theory, he probably just puts it in the box and is probably at lavender tower to pay respect to other trainers lost pokemon
Cubone’s mother, anyone?
There's a cemetery in like every gen
Um Actually, the Game of Thrones correction is wrong. The Baratheon's sigil has always been the Crowned Stag as they took it from the line of Storm Kings (House Durrandon of Storm's End) that they extinguished during Aegon's Conquest. It has nothing to do with the fact that Baratheon is the ruling house of Westeros.
EDIT: Perhaps this is only in the books though? I always lose track of the random changes they made for the TV series.
It is never overtly mentioned in the show, so your correction of the correction stands.
I think this is my favorite episode because they spend time actually discussing the questions and it's implications instead of rapid fire questioning.
Um actually, Jonathan Archer was not captain of a ship called USS Enterprise. His ship was just called Enterprise. No definite article and no USS. The "United" part refers to the United Federation of Planets, which did not yet exist at the time of Archer's mission.
Wasn't it an NX ship. NX being what Star Fleet labels ships that haven't entire full production but are being tested?
@@LLorax0 Nope. ST:Enterprise takes place before the founding of the Federation, with Archer as the founding president of said federation and would not be captaining a spaceship called "enterprise"
@@LLorax0 Yes, it was officially "Enterprise (NX-01)," as it was the first of the NX class of ships. Occasionally referred to as "NX Enterprise," as well, it was still operated by the United Earth Starfleet (UES) and NOT by the United Federation of Planets (UFP). The UFP used the U.S.S. ship prefix, but the UES did not. So while it WAS named "Enterprise," it was never called or officially known as a "U.S.S. Enterprise" (it was decommissioned in the same year that the UFP was founded, so there was no overlap and it never served in any real capacity under the UFP--and certainly not after they started using the U.S.S. designations).
@@NekoMouser Love that the organization DID have United in the name but still didn't use it in the ships, just to mess with us haha.
"A derivative hodgepodge of Excalibur meets Star Wars."
Oh, so it's Star Wars.
"the most boring, nonsensical, and illogical fantasy in a long time."
Oh, so it's star wars?
Nah, Star Wars is a derivative hodgepodge of Akira Kurosawa and WW2 films.

Um actually, this us like the funniest episode I've seen omg. The mashup guy needs a movie
he sounds like a Terry Pratchett Discworld character.
Serpopard gives me vague "Questing Beast" vibes in that it really seems like a giraffe that went through a game of telephone, so I wouldn't be surprised that it was egyptian, given there are giraffes as close as South Sudan, which was outside ancient egypt's territorial extent, but within the range that someone probably could have seen them and relayed back, possibly through second or higher hand accounts.
That Monster Maker Man is exactly how I sounded trying to make monsters for my D&D book
God, definitely my favorite episode I've seen; the chemistry going on in the room is so positive and engaging
Um, actually, different plants have different preferences for watering. There are some that like frequent and light waterings. Soil water retention is another major factor affecting the amount and frequency of your waterings as is humidity.
I have to say, this group have some seriously awesome banter...
Why is “Um, Actually” not a board game yet?
Or an app!
You wish has been fulfilled!
Well, technically, it’s still not a board game but it *is* a table top game once the Kickstarter fulfills.
@@JasperJanssen Um, actually there are whiteboard included, so technically it’s a board game 😂😂
Would be a fun card game like apples to apples but where people give false and real answers and the person has to pick which is real..
Um, actually, dusk is at the end of the day.
Right after gloaming.
@@jean-paulaudette9246 gloaming is just another word for dusk. And so is twilight
Oh, it's Maggie! I absolutely love seeing Cracked alums out here in the wild!
The banter in this one was really fun lol
So hilarious I almost pissed myself
Yeah, they had a lot of fun with the gags
You have no idea how happy I was to see someone get the Spider-man question. For some completely irrational reason that "-" getting left off irks me so I'm glad somebody caught it.
Yeah, too bad she didn't begin her response with "Um, actually".
@@bribbertyjibbert I was wondering why no one caught that.
edit: I realized you don't have to say it during the shiny question!
Love how much you guys nerded out with the made up scenarios.
This was one of my favourite episodes just because you all had so much fun going on tangents
I would add that mandon moore does leave a disfiguring scar across Tyrions face, its not untrue, it just didn't add his other injury of missing nose.
The title of this episode would make for a great movie
Gonna work "for the love of Krull" into my common parlance
Fun fact: "Krull" is swedish for "curly hair".
Umm actually, Krulligt Hår is Swedish for Curly Hair
@@judochopmaster8233 Can be used either way - "ha ett krull", "kolla det där krullet" (having curly hair, check out that curly hair) are perfectly valid. Things can be "krulliga", absolutely, but they can also be "krull". Some words work both as adjectives and nouns, and this is one of them. Check out svenska.se/tre/?sok=Krull&pz=1
@@krank23 I thought a krullet was just a kurly mullet
That just makes the movie all the more 80s, and I love it.
The chemistry between everyone was really good in this episode. It felt like they were joking together for much longer than typical.
Um actually, it has always been a crowned stag, back to the days of the Storm Kings, regardless of them being kings or lords.
I’m three months late but this drove me nuts too. The baratheon’s didn’t have the crowned stag in the days of the storm kings because the original Baratheon lord was the bastard friend of the conqueror, who married the daughter of the last storm king and took her family sigil and words, but was never a king himself. Either way, always had a crown!
The running gags just keep going and I'm here for it.
16:25 Um, Actually...Iroquois is the colonial name for that tribal group. Haudenosaunee is the more accurate and respectful term.
Has there ever been an episode with both Maggie and Erika on it? That would be the most smiley, happy energy episode ever.
The first time I saw this episode I didn't know who Maggie Mae Fish was, but now I'm hyped to watch it again
One of the funniest and most fun episodes I’ve seen. Loving the banter between questions.
Technically, you want to water your plants early in the morning before the sun rises so that the water doesn't set on the leaves. Watering during daylight causes the water to act like a lens causing the sun to scorch the leaves. The name for this damage is naturally called "Sun Scorch" or "Leaf Scorch."
You should water the soil, not the leaves on most houseplants anyway, shouldn’t you? If you have a plant that needs lots of humidity you can put the pot on some pebbles in a tray with water that can evaporate and keep the immediate area of that plant more humid.
Um, actually- the books are called a song of ice and fire, not a game of thrones
Uhm, actually, the series is called a song of ice and fire and one of the books is titled a game of thrones
Um actually, only those who fear what awaits them when they die turn into ghosts, assuming that they are wizards and have not split their souls. According to the Harry Potter universe anyway.
I wasn't sure if that was all ghosts' reason for staying, or just Nicholas DeMimsy-Porpington
So... Harry Potter ghosts are just less interesting Pirates of the Caribbean fishmen?
@@ccggenius Yeah, but without the curse and eternity of servitude
Um, actually, their souls still move on, regardless of whether they choose to be a ghost or not. What is left is nothing more than a mere imprint of who they used to be.
Moaning Myrtle stayed just to haunt her bully.
Um actually, different plants need different levels of attention and water.
I can't believe there was never a taco bell + hobbit promotion for fourthmeal
Hobbits cant eat taco bell, you need shoes to go in there
they could get doordash.
Tom L itd be cold by the time it got there, no cars in middle earth
Um, Actually Skeletor's staff does not have a crystal ball. That is Evil-Lyn's staff.
Yeah, if I remember it correctly, his staff had a ram's skull.
Um, Actually the statement goes "He wields the havoc staff: a long scepter topped with a ram's skull and a crystal ball", so it's the lack of the Oxford comma that's the real villain here. Skeletor has a crystal ball.
Um actually, that depends on which version you're going with. While the original action figure's staff has just a skull on the Filmation cartoon there is a crystal ball between the skull's horns.
Maggie adds so much to this show
Too bad she didn't add "Um, actually" to her response to the Spider-Man question
@@bribbertyjibbert They mentioned in another episode that "um, actually" isn't required for shiny questions! :-)
You all get one point from me for the humorous banter you all put forth.Well done.
All the banter and tangents made this one of my favorite shows so far!
The banter of this episode was fantastic
Um actually, am I a ghost?
I went to college with Maggie. She was really nice
This is my favorite episode so far. I’m watching em all in order.
This might be my favorite episode for random segues, i cracked up so much between the questions
MAGGIE!!!!!!!!! I'm so excited to see you here!
I know it is the point, but that 21 on a d20 really bothers me
well it prevents nat 1's so i love it
@@nerosoul2506 you really believe it's not a 1 on the other side? I'm pretty sure they just replaced the 20 with a 21
@@yeti25934 Y'know what that makes sense
It took me so long to understand the set design of Um Actually, and its brilliant.
I've rewatched this episode so many times. So funny!
Um Actually, Archer's Enterprise wasn't a USS Enterprise, it was NX-01, from before the Federation was formed
Best episode I've seen so far,
Even had a Jeopardy moment, where I'm shouting, "Krull" at the screen, and no one's saying it. 😂
This looks like it was the funest to film, love it
This episode really defines the idea of running a joke into the ground.
Just what I needed this fine Friday. Save Martha, y'all.
Wait, why did you say that name?
Um actually, it's things you know and love, not know and like...
I think this is my favorite episode of Um, Actually!
i must say... this is probably the most fun i saw trapp... we're happy your happy trapp ahahaha
I would love to have this as a card game or like an app to play with my friends!
Someone should always buzz in at the beginning to say "Um, actually, not all of your questions will be about things I know and like."
Um actually, they are having such a good time!
Um, actually in Harry Potter you're also required to have been a wizard/witch in order to become a ghost (or at least a non-muggle).
Jk doesnt think about the implications of these types of things.
Just like plumbing. Let's ignore the meme for a moment but the chamber of secrets entrance being secret makes no sense if wizards didn't use plumbing.
thinking about it could squibs become ghosts? I kinda think no because someone like Filch would love to be more accepted in magic community if so and thus wouldn't there be like tons of squib ghosts?
@@dannybob42 Yeah, it's unclear from the text. Nick says wizard, but there's a lot of prejudices in-universe, so squibs or other sapient magical beings might also qualify.
@@TheCinderfang You think THAT makes no sense? Have you heard of JK Rowling's explanation of what wizards did before plumbing was a thing?
@@wjzav1971 oh of course, just she seems to both have and not have plumbing at the same time. After all, if plumbing was implemented after Hogwarts was first made, well the chamber of secrets would have been found.
Muggles don't have souls, that's why they can't leave ghosts behind.
Good lord Maggie’s outfit is just goals
I love this show so damn much man Idk why but I could watch so many of these
I don't know where you came from and I don't know how I got here. But now I can't leave and I'm thoroughly enjoying this kind of trivia with no consequences for right or wrong answers. So I'm staying.
maggie didnt say "um Actually" for her 1st point
Um actually it’s shiny question and it’s been cleared that they doesn’t need to say um actually
Just went from watching the worst one to this absolute gem. It was like stepping into a hot shower after being drenched with cold rain.
Which one was that, out of curiosity?
Starting just now, and considering his last stint in Um, Actually, Gutz might rock this one again
I enjoyed that quit e a bit! Seriously, great stuff.
If Cyclops' eye beams were lasers, they would simply reflect off a mirror. In fact, the concussive blasts would smash that mirror to bits. USS is an actual currently used initialism for United States Ship. The initialism on Star Trek spaceships stands for the other two the editor guy mentioned.
My one goal in life is to know as much random pop culture crap as Gutz.
The bits throughout this episode are hilarious
I’m so glad someone from the crew corrected the sf2 name change lore. This was my most UM ACTUALLY moment I’ve had watching these.
This was great! Needed some more MMF in ma life.
I'm South African and hadn't heard of Impundulu, but could figure that it was South African because it definitely sounds like a Zulu word
L
I have forgotten so so many Harry Potter tid bits but that ghost choice one is with me forever
What a great episode
"Gutes" is something good in German.
The more you know.
The second he started the question I knew peeves actually being a poltergeist was gonna be the answer
That long tangent about the evil scientist with the Brooklyn plumber accent being unable to create monsters was hilarious
I can't believe I lived all those years without the monster masher bit.
