Our final (slightly belated) holiday special, in which Chris is joined by Editor Andy and “Bad Stats” Dan for a festive quiz. Unfortunately, Matthew Browne (Senior Decoder) was unavailable, but Editor Andy heroically stepped in as his stand-in champion. Alongside another high-quality Guru quiz, Dan offers his usual insights into the latest content from Brett and Heather’s DarkHorse podcast, as well as commentary on a selection of more obscure internet personalities.

Wondered what happened to this one. Did the contents previously consist too much of The Things They Won't Let You Talk About? Is this a heavily edited version to pander to Big Guru?

Linda Sears

Yay! I’ve been waiting for this!

Ando

Chris dropping the slop like it's sweet coffee on a day he doesn't feel he's deserved it!

Daniel Gilbert

I predict this will be a good episode, maybe even the best

Nancy Hale

At last!! And dropped just in time for my evening walk 🙏

Paul Ditta

Andy, it’s okay, sweetie. We love you. Warm milk and cinnamon.

Rich F

I like editor Andy. 1st time I've heard him. This was funny.

Carina S.

This was excellent! Not only because I scored more points than both of you, but Andy is a star and it's nice to hear Chris talking with someone who is similarly obsessed. Come back please, Andy & Dan!

I really liked this episode. However, I feel a trick was missed by not calling Andy standing in for Matt, ‘Mandy.’ Sometimes, I disappoint even myself.

Frances goulart

It's like sitting in on a clubhouse gang ... fun stuff, boys!

Linda Sears

Listening to this, I have gathered that Andy is a Canuck. The way he said “about” tipped me off. Canadian accents are cute. Also, there was one video game sampler song that Andy used a couple times that I really liked. I always wondered where it came from.

Andy is operating on at least 100 paradigms at once.

What is the Editor Andy origin story? If I remember correctly, you guys put out a call for a video editor a few years ago. I assume he responded. Just a listener/fan who could also contribute?

For the record, I can inform Dan that he is not the only person who hate-listens to every episode of Darkhorse. This morning I made the mistake of accidentally playing it on both my headphones and the living room Sonos speaker. After half an hour my wife came upstairs and said, “What the fuck are you listening to? At first I thought I was listening to something worthwhile because the people sounded intelligent and reasonable. But then I realized they were just saying increasingly crazy shit in calm voices.”

Enjoyed this very much. It took me back to the old days when DtG was just pure fun, being amazed by the guru’s most wacky behaviors; before it started overlapping with US politics so much. Will a video version of this be released?

“Stefan Molinew’s book explains syllogism, and validness and soundness, but gets them exactly backwards”. In the mid 20th century the definitions of validity and soundness basically swapped. So it’s possible that Steven was relying on an antiquated logic text for reference. Which doesn’t detract from the fact he’s an imbecile.

MoooinkForYourSupper

Great quiz Dan. Im just here to flex that I beat Chris and Andy in points this time again.... Actually probably not really a flex now that I think about it

Jack AG

Fun episode! Andy had solid guesses, but Chris' hatewatching is unmatched. The confidence with which these gurus state absurd theories outside of their sphere of expertise will never cease to boggle my mind. They're such clowns.

Debra Hotmer

Love this episode episode- I was giggling throughout. Thanks guys

Ryan Weeks

Oh my god, I can’t believe Bret would just offer up the overbearing mother thing out of nowhere like that. Oh boy.

This was pretty fun
