"Hot Grapes" -MBMBAM Animatic 

can’t microwave grapes without funky explosion. instead boil em grapes in hot water then u got some hot hot grapes bay bee.

i’m not talking about cooking the grapes, i’m talking about getting the grapes hot babey

I have no idea how the brothers maintain this dynamic where one of them is so serious about HOT GRAPES while the other is laughing so hard he can't breath for a good 10 minutes.

"Transform into a living dog." This implies that dogs aren't normally alive and that scares me

justin laughs, but vis a vis “cooking vs Getting Hot” griffin is absolutely right

The first time I listened to this bit. 10 minutes later I was cleaning out the inside of my microwave because it turns out when you microwave grapes! _they explode!_ griffin mcelroy ur dead to me!

ah my favorite hozier album "Grapes, Babeyyy"

"Don't eat those grapes, they're raw" *DEEPLY UNCOMFORTABLE*

Timestamping 2:25 because “Grapes bay-BEE” is killing me.

Justin wheezing out "No, don't help him!" to Travis, mid-hysterical laughter, is peak eldest-sibling culture.

Everytime griffin says anything in this I almost fall off my chair laughing “and now I’m eating grapes BAY-BEE”

i love the bits when griffin is like aggressively trying to convince justin of something ridiculous

I love how Travis puts weird emphasis on words like sir-LOIN and straw-BER-ry

I actually have a food allergy where I've only been able to eat fruits and vegetables if they're cooked/processed in a way since I was 12 so like I actually know all about hot fruits and veggies. The answer is they taste gross warm. Fruit dont "warm" well, because of all the juice inside them. Strawberries are probably one of the only good ones you can just put in a pot and simmer it till its warm and put it on a pastry with the juices that have boiled out and it'll taste great. Peaches are ok but like canned peaches so kinda nasty. Bananas become trash tier if by itself and not like chocolate added to it. Fun fact I have actually used the term raw in regards to fruit to explain my allergy. lol

The way Grif goes "Oh my God, oh my God." It perfectly encapsulates the frustration and indignancy he felt at Justin's misunderstanding.

i love how accusatory griffin gets its so fucking funny, half the time hes the one who talked the other brother into a corner

i absolutely love how they brought up the explosion factor but then ignored it for the rest of the question

The way Travis says sirloin and strawberries makes me laugh so hard

Leftover steak: "that's not food a human would eat" I've never felt so disconnected from Justin in my life.

I ADORE the way geothebio animates Justin laughing. Especially the ones where he just like... LEVITATES from the sheer force of it.

Justin McElroy: has eaten grapes the regular amount of times

griffins line of questioning at the end is like that scene in legally blonde where she breaks the whole thing open and makes chutney admit to murder on the stand but it’s justin admitting to not microwaving grapes

EACH BROTHER HAS A FRUIT GRIFFIN: BANANA TRAVIS: MANGO JUSTIN: GRAPES ITS COMPLETED THEYVE DONE

"So, Justin, uh, why don't we eeaat hahT graaaaeeepes thooo-uh"

In college my friends (who also listen to MBMBAM) and I got very drunk at a party and started loudly rehashing this argument until the entire party was picking sides. We then microwaved grapes and passed them around just to make a point. Turns out the next day we look it up, and you are wicked not supposed to microwave grapes. It generates carcinogenic plasma apparently. My friends still give us shit every time grapes come up in conversation

Grapes are hot when microwaved. it's just facts.

“Fancy words like COOK. Griffin means MICROWAVE them” is an entire mood somehow

why is "please now tell me yes?" the most threatening thing anyone could say

"A big wuh-oh accident" had me dying the first time I heard it lol.

I love this bit so much because of how all of the brothers’ sibling energies are on full display. Justin nitpicking the bit, Griffin angrily holding on to the joke, and Travis popping in with irrelevant points is such older, younger and middle sibling energy, respectively.

Searched "grapes in microwave" Got "Microwave grapes make plasma"

"purple candies in your mouth" artist draws grapes green

Angry animated Griffin is my favorite animated Griffin.

I love how Justin's just laughing, but Griffin is so damn CONVINCED he's opposed to everything he's saying by default

I have so many feelings on this. When I say “cook”, I’m talking about a chemical reaction that actually changes the food. When I cook a pizza, it chemically changes, the dough rises. Now say I have leftover pizza that’s cold. When I microwave it I’m not “cooking” it, it’s not undergoing a chemical change. I’m changing its temperature. So the question isn’t “why don’t we cook fruit”, because we clearly do. It’s “why don’t I prefer fruit to be at a different temperature”. Just like I prefer to warm my leftover pizza versus eating it cold. I put a strawberry in the microwave, I don’t want to “cook” it, chemically change it, I want to eat it hot! Why is cold fruit the societal norm??????????

The i-hate-you-ron dog makes a triumphant return!!

It's fucking incredible. They all listened to the same question, and they know each other better than anyone- logically, they should have very similar reactions. Instead, they spend a full 7 minutes NOT being anywhere near the same page. Glorious.

justin giving a reasonable explanation to griffin's question only for griff to call him a fascist is big sibling energy oh boy

i love how griffin claims justin made it about grapes when he (griffin) was the one who narrowed it down to grapes in the first place its amazing

I feel like this is one of the instances where Justin only started paying attention halfway through and picked up the conversation just to start laughing immediately

Raw fruit tastes fresh. We don't heat fresh stuff cuz then it doesn't taste fresh anymore. When fruit's in something, it's usually just in there to taste sweet, so it's okay to heat it. Or maybe I'm a complete moron that lives in weird-fruit-rule-land.

I love how almost all of this is Justin not understanding the question

Its very revealing that when I listened to this bit I was getting aggressively frustrated with Justin who was MISSING. THE POINT.

I love how Travis in the span of 10 seconds went from totally on board, to incredibly skeptical as soon as grapes were mentioned.

I love that Griffin is aware that microwaving grapes makes them explode, yet still violently asks why we don't microwave grapes

"I hate you Ron" on the dog was such a nice callback.

Here’s where I draw my line: cooking requires a chemical change in the ingredients. When you make cobbler, you’re breaking down starches into sugars and shit, the intent of microwaving fruit here is not to induce any chemical reaction, but instead to merely change the temperature of the fruit

As someone who rinses my grapes with hot water so I can eat them warm, this entire bit made me extraordinarily anxious because I both agreed and disagreed with every point made and was rooting for all of them and none of them simultaneously.

i was not prepared to hear griffin call justin a fascist bc of hot grape discourse kgshdfhkg

I feel like griffin is forgetting that pizza and spaghetti have “fancy” preparations that you do before you can microwave them. All of the non-fruit foods they mentioned require preparation. A better comparison would be microwaving raw veggies or microwaving pasta without water and then eating that pasta without any sauce or cheese or anything else. Like most foods are more than single raw ingredient+heat source. Anyways you’re welcome for over analyzing a problem that came up on a comedy podcast as if they were trying to answer it super seriously.

Warning: grapes do in fact heat up to plasma when put in the microwave, check relevant veritasium vid for more information

Griffin's indignant rage is palpable and infectious

This video has cleared my skin and watered my crops.

"Getting the grapes hot bAbEe"

I don't trust Justin's feelings on whether something is considered raw because he refers to any cheese that has not been melted as raw..

I've never seen grapes produce so much salt before. Truly a scientific miracle.

Griffins grape tshirt is just too much detail , i actually cant comprehend how much time you must spend on these animations yet get them out so fast

7 minutes and 22 seconds of absolute DELIGHT Geo you are spoiling us 100% and I love it

I can not get enough of the line "if you're not gonna play with me, let me play at you"

7:21 Ah yes, everyone's favorite celebrity: Perjickelblu.

I love that Griffin and Justin's resting face here is OwO

I love how whenever Justin's laughter goes into hysterical mode you can kinda hear Taako.

I remember hearing this bit and stopping my game to go "....whyyyy?"

3:11 “you’re on the wrong side of history”

"Justin who's the coolest celebrity in your estimation?" "Coolest ce- prajeh golbloo" That ending is icing on the hot grape cake

“Wait, are dogs not supposed to eat grapes?” *”MR. BARKLEY! MR. BARKLEY?”*

They ate hot fruit in WW1 or 2 or something, and the people from that generation hated it and stopped and made it socially illegal.

Love the dog scribbles callback!

How Ba-by was said is one of my favorite sounds in the world right now

Justin not understanding the diffrence between heating up a grape and preparing a dish with grapes in it will always be relatable to me

I love how he says “purple grapes” yet you draw green ones I am mad

Now I'm eating grapes babey

I KNEW that you would animate this segment! And btw, Banana microwaved with cinnamon is amazing

today i preheated the oven without realizing there was a leftover cheese plate in it, so when i opened the oven i discovered a plate of hot grapes and i am proud to report that they're excellent and evoke the feeling of pie while still being fruit

"THE VERB MICROWAVED" And yet when I try to use Ovened on Countdown they say it's not a word!

I love the little tongue sticking out when someone is being talked to in all of your animations to really send home the idiocy of the situation.

2:30 because i need this replay button baBEY

People like grapes. But some people like hot and microwaved grapes.

-"Heating it up": When you do nothing transformative to the food besides make it hot (the transition and attendant chemical processes that occur when raw meat becomes cooked meat and the like count as transformative), including if the food was previously cooked (i.e. leftovers). -"Preparing it": When you mix or add ingredients, but the vast majority of the actual work to make it what it is was done previously (ex. instant oatmeal or leftovers of something fancy that needs to be integrated due to sauces or dressings). -"Cooking it": When you actually take the base ingredients (possibly a few things that have been previously processed to some degree), and actively do a whole bunch of stuff to them to create a dish. Requires heat to be introduced at some point. -"Making it": Cooking, but heat is never a part of the process (ex. sushi and most sandwiches). Can also be used for heated variations of typically non-heated dishes (ex. hot sandwiches). -"Baking it": Chemistry you can eat without dying (assuming you do it right).

I still remember when my friend showed me how to turn grapes into plasma in another school's cafeteria microwave.

We've been getting some fruity animations lately

But what about... *MICROWAVED* *MANGOES?*

The message dog for Ron.

i love the sentence “and you tell me now how many outlier times you have done it where you have then take the grapes and you put them in the microwave before eating them please now tell me yes?”

If you put grapes in a microwave you can make the 4th state of matter Plasma, so dont

4:40 MR. PERKINS IS BACK OUR LORD AND SAVIOR GEO HAS BLESSED US THIS DAY

my first reaction to seeing the notification for this was "THE MAD LAD ACTUALLY DID IT"

This clip made me irrationally angry at justin.

Everyone's talking about "now im eating hot grapes baybee" but i think the way griffin questions justin at 6:15 is funnier

When Travis said, “No, Justin,” I felt that.

I really wanna know where Travis was going with the "Who's the coolest celebrity?" bit.

Griffin's Microwave Grape Rage

Love your style, keep doing what you're doing

This is one of my favorite videos to show people to introduce them to MBMBaM

Answer: most fruits have fairly high liquid content and would probably explode or not turn out very good if you put them in the microwave.

I'm so happy this is up!!! I love it you're the best mbmbambino

Raw meat is fine for dogs Hippogriff, they got mad strong tummies.

I regularly come back to watch this because it is my FAVE animatic. The way you animate Justin laughing gives me LIFE.

3:18 this sentence gave me full body chills

This entire bit just intrusively runs through my head constantly. I’ve never known peace since
