I wish I had witnessed the technical difficulties in their "citation needed" or "two of these people are lying" days. Allthough I really enjoy what they are doing now, it's on a different more laid back level than those two chaotic series.

I really recommend it to anyone curious about humoristic trivia games. Tom Scott is a pretty good host, both in leading contestants and on his own, but matt grey, chris joel and especially gary brannan are simply too good at derailling any conversation.

highlights include:

the prizes at the end of most episodes of "citation needed" being crazy convoluted wordplays and alliterations

fish tank and people tank

a goose and a train

the chocolate war

a pope infestation

"and the wheel lands on... france"

tom scott awarding points for someone simply paraphrasing what he just said

Gary occasionnal throwing some of the wildest sounds a man can produce with his mouth

the tale of Henricus, the drunkard gaul prophet who came to rome

that time matt stated "I'm telling you, that's not mine" and Tom still went and picked his proposition

gary trapped in an endless giggle fit.

multiple instances of tom crossing off gary's proposition immediately, and being wrong half the time.

"so you think they just transported a flipping corpse to the house of Commons?"

Juan Pujol and Jack Churchill both being grandiose WWII mad lads in their own ways

the whole "hagia Sophia" debacle, from Tom being mocked by the commenters for not knowing it, to the terrible description which almost made me think I was mistaken, to the final twist ending

that one time one of the liers was accidentally closer to the truth than the one who was supposed to have picked the article

Tom being certain an airoport he actually went to didn't exist

Gary being a massive "old timey official documents" nerd, but also the man with the grossest jokes of the crew

on that point, "♪ have you ever seen your granny [...]"

"are you done?"
