Nikocado Avocado causes a Global Food Crisis | TBH EP 2 

If you missed episode 1: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6pH1NmmOMp4.html And if you have a low attention span like pyro, we also have a clips channel: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-q-ALJ4484wA.html

I love the dynamic here. Colossal and Pyro argue and make fun of each other, Nerd City tries to keep them on task, and Dolan is there.

That snail story is one of the most deranged things I've ever heard.

pyro is like sweating when they're talking about belching and shit.

colossal went from being a pretty agreeable person in episode 1 to sounding absolutely fucking batshit insane in this one

I love how chill and well-adjusted Nerd City sounds compared to these other degenerates.

The world feels a little less terrible when I hear Pyro struggling to defend himself against his friends.

Colossal just unironically pulled a "let them eat cake" to that wheat news lmao

Totally agree with Nerdcity on the getting help if you hear someone screaming thing. I used to live in a bad neighbourhood and I was pretty close with my downstairs neighbours. They once called the cops in the middle of the night to come check for domestic violence since they thought they had heard some suspicious sounds and crying upstairs. It turned out that it was their nextdoor neighbour and not me though. They were having a party and someone fell and hurt themself. The downstairs neighbours apologised to me for the whole situation, but I was actually so thankful that they had called the cops in case something would have been going on. It's good to know that people have your back in case something happens.

The mental image of Clown drooling melted butter onto slug creatures is going to haunt my dreams.

It's quite a unique format for a podcast to film stuff after-the-fact based on the conversation, and it's awesome (unless you already had footage of Colossal hunting in the woods).

This podcast fucking rules. I love all of you guys as your separate channels but especially as a group of friends. The only thing wrong with this channel is that the podcasts are too short! Looking forward to the next one :)

this podcast is such a fucking great blend of personalities. they stay on topics well enough so it's not just abstract steam of consciousness yet go off on tangents so it doesn't feel mechanical and strictly business. I fucking love it

Oh the subject of the wheat shortage. I work at a Cargill Grain Elevator in Canada and not only has the distribution of grain been slow (we have not had a foreign vessel or a local train shipment of grain since February. Which is big because that used to be a daily thing.) But it's expected that there will be no supply left come August. The branch owners are downplaying the this to the highest hells stating that this is just "a phase in the market." Blaming it on local farmers hoarding supply to make a larger profit. But its legitimately a scary thing. All of the other grain elevators within the lower half of the province have laid off up and shut down certain operations to salvage costs. So obviously they are foretelling the famine as well. Its a pretty scary sight to witness tbh when you look at the bigger picture.

love that clown hasn't toned down his sense of humour at all, still throwing out fat jokes without even thinking. Never change colossal

I absolutely understand not calling the police when you hear a scream, because it could be anything. But the problem with that is that I got assaulted in my old apartment, and kept screaming for help, for hours, and no help came. Also I witnessed a case of bystander effect that was so insane to me, this old man fell, and was disorientated in the MIDDLE OF THE ROAD, and a truck was coming, bunch of people were watching, and no one helped until I ran up to help. So I don't know how I feel about this.

I mean, it's better to have called the police and find out it was just something harmless than letting someone get hurt or even killed. There's this video of a girl screaming bloody murder as she's being dragged into a car and taken away, and the entire neighborhood is just standing there and watching. Afaik she's been missing ever since. It's crazy that there were so many people who saw it happening and not a single person did anything (other than whip out their phone and record it).

I don't even know why this was on my feed but I clicked on it and instantly enjoyed what I heard. This doesn't happen often but I even went and subscribed to all of your individual channels. Looking for to hearing future episodes!

Hearing Nikocado speak makes me mentally exhausted and instantly not hungry

" If the peasants have no bun for their Big Mac, let them eat apples" This still has me laughing.

All jokes aside the wheat shortage is legitimately terrifying

The rewatch ability of these is insane. The editing is everything, and no podcast comes close with TBHs visuals. It’s literally like a Netflix show.

finally!! Was rewatching the first episode today wondering if you've abandoned the podcast, glad you haven't

"sonic chungus farting in your mouth" is quite the sentence.

This episode was equal parts hilarious, informative, and depressing. Well done?... I think? Also, hearing Nerd talk about feeding your animals nutritious food made me love and respect him even more.

For being primarily a podcast format, the visuals for this are just fantastic 👌 I love the PS1 polygon graphics, and all the custom, well-made scenes Also, the storytelling combined with the visuals of the slug story was truly surreal

To be fair, Clown was saying some of the most poorly informed horseshit I've ever seen him utter on this episode.

Never in my life would I have imagined this combo would even know each other, let alone be friends, let alone make a podcast. But the fact they actually managed 2 episodes is the most mind-blowing thing to me. I have 4 exams left let's hope you'll release the next episode before I graduate.

Who ever edited pyro laughing by himself is a garbage human being and i love it

whenever pyro does that "hii :3" it makes me want to put him in a petri dish

Just finished the podcast, it was great. You have a lot of chemistry between you, and in a way I couldn’t find that in other podcasts (for example, Baited). I wanted to clarify something about the grain part because I know a bit about it (not really like you average African farmer but about enough to know the extent of the subject at hand). I study geography as a subject in high school. One of the subjects is of course agriculture. One of the biggest things we go over is how most plantations need a good sustainable amount of rainfall, and good temperatures and how fragile a crop can be. The biggest piece of data we talk about is that dry, arid countries like the ones in the Sahara desert and the near-Asian steppes (Turkey and the -Stan countries) can only grow wheat with the measly amounts of rainfall they get. Literally only wheat. Some countries like Ethiopia have a bit of a better climate and they can grow apples and other crops but countries like Egypt and Libya and Saudi Arabia will have serious food shortages and famines worse than their current situation. It’s a common misconception that you just need to water the crop consistently for it to grow vegetables and fruits and the such, but climate and rainfall and ground quality and fertilizer and more variables are very critical to the growth of plants. Most people in developed countries have no idea about this because they don’t study geography and their country isn’t a dry desert that can’t grow anything, usually your average rich country can grow a lot of stuff that isn’t tropical fruits (they need a ton of rainfall, literally tropical rainforest rainfall to survive), so the general consensus knows nothing or not much about this (usually it’s different geographical effects like the current California dry season that is limiting the water supply). Cheers!

Staple crops like wheat, corn or potatoes represemt a huge part of most people's caloric intake. If there is a shortage in one it puts pressure on other food sources as people seek alternative food sources for their calories. This creates food shortages if staple crops fail. You can stop eating bread but so does everyone else. Now you have a bunch of people eating corn or potatoes as am alternative putting pressure on a market that usually only produces so much to meet the previous demand. Yeah more can be grown but you are limited by the grow times of these alternatives plus the seasons they are grown in.

Nerd's right again on how many youtubers are insane. One of the necessary ingredients to entertain the masses: Psychosis.

That entire part with Colosall solving world hunger was just the funniest 9 minutes of my life.

idk why, but hearing nerd city defend “the Reddit Bureau of Investigation” as though it’s not the most autistic concept imaginable is extremely funny to me

Surprised they didn’t bully pyro when talking about Nikocado

Really liking this show. It’s interesting to see nerd as the voice of reason instead of colossal like on baited, but I think it works quite well for the absurd topics. Chemistry between all four is great too, great work.

Wheat is often used in raising animals and inceasing milk production. Dont know much about farming but wheat is realy fucking importent for most farmers

I just wanna say I love love love the little graphics and animation segments and 3D low poly models so much they are such a nice charming touch that makes this podcast look so high quality, props to the artists

Yeah, I get what you're saying, "let them eat apples!" But I'm glad NerdCity is there to reign in Colossal's crazy and remind people that it's just not that simple. XD

Love the cute retro style animations XD

I love the quality of it. The colour grading on all the shots is excellent 👏👏👏

We’re only on episode 2 and this is already one of my favourite podcasts, I love the chemistry between you boys, especially Pyro and Clown lol

I hope that this podcast blows up c: I really enjoy all of this dynamic, thanks for putting this together

Tha incredible amount of editing work that goes into these does not go unnoticed, love the pod love you guys

The editing on this episode is on another level, well done guys!

That was a great episode. I really like that its edited this well, i feel like that increases rewatchability later on.

The snail story paired with it being like colossal is called to by frank from donnie darko is just beautiful

Last place I expected to hear the name rusty cage I can’t even lie mate

Idk why but I feel like Colossal's snail story is like the most normal thing compared to everything else.

the joker laugh clip playing while pyro hysterically laughs is so perfect

This podcast is so well edited it´s insane

this is a really well made podcast i was laughing my ass of at the slug animatic please keep it up

I love the editing on this!!

Love the podcast so far and the dynamic with the group, but that abrupt ending on Colossal's bizarre brooding instinct gave me whiplash haha.

“I saw a stabbing in my mind” lmao I lost it

This podcast is good i wonder how long will it take to get another episode

22:00 the irish potato famine was mainly caused by the british, who were in control at the time, they stockpiled the other crops the irish had grown and refused to give it out to the general populace, they also turned away food that was offered to us by different countries including the ottman empire, russia and the choctaw nation

i love how in baited colossal is the sane one but in TBH he's the insane one

"You won't eat spaghetti/pasta for a while what's the problem?" Dude here in Italy we eat only that, not even joking.

"Colossal is the Dexter of RU-vid". Spot on. Brilliant

is nobody gonna talk about how the rant about "just eat apples" is basically the same thing as Marie Antoinette saying "let them eat cake"?

Thing about wheat shortages is that wheat is also used to feed livestock. So shortages there means more than not being able to buy bread at the bakery.

"You just look like an absolute schizo, running in like 'I saw a stabbing in my mind!'" is hilarious

Please keep making these, your podcasts are SO enjoyable to listen to. And I've never listened to podcasts before.

Best part of this entire podcast is the visual of people smoking when Colossal is talking about eating

dude these visuals are so cool good job whoever made them

Nerd you my guy. You're the voice of reason. Keep them in line

I love this channel. Thank god Colossal is back!

25:14 is hilarious concpetually, and omg the rant right after is legendary

This is actually better than like the majority of RU-vidrs I love and this is just some side project to the main videos

So glad another episode exists

that slug story had me creasing, this podcast has already made my year 😩

Colosals long pause and then just saying "bread" had me dying lol

This is the best podcast I've seen in years with the beutiful visuals with these episodes actually gets everyone's attention

I’m pretty sure the Dodo Bird was hunted to extinction because it was so meaty and delicious. So Colossal was spot-on with that lol

I like the animation in the video. Makes it feel authentic

When Colossal made that joke about not being able to eat big macs due to the wheat shortage, I just thought people are only gonna start panicking when they can't get their mcrib on time

Hearing colossal saying please in a skeksis voice made my week

make these just a little longer!!! they're so good but I end up listening to them over and over again

love the editing

Well 2 episodes was a great comeback/run.... Great job ladies

Love the renders btw. ❤️

So interesting talk of the bystander effect, and the case nerd was talking about was kitty Genovese's murder, but this is more of a pop-culture myth then an example of bystander effect Many of the residents actually called the police (despite journalists claiming otherwise), and a woman actually went out and comforted Kitty while she was dying, trying to provide aid until the police could get there. Journalists also claimed hundreds watched the murder, but many of those hundreds claimed they didn't hear anything, or that they thought there was a reasonable explanation (ie. someone playing a loud movie). The bystander effect is certainly a real phenomenon; for instance if I see someone getting robbed I may not have time to stop and help, I may not want to get involved for fear of reprisal, or I may just believe that I do not know the full story here or do not have the power to do anything. But it's still overstated, especially when kitty genovese's murder is brought up as an example

I swear no-one bullies pyro about the incident more than his friends do

I love how the guys start discuss tangible issues that warrant deeper thought and discussion the conversation devolves into a fever dream about Colossal dribbling salted butter on slug children and committing slug genocide. Eat apples.

Oh man i was about to go to bed but saw this in my sub box. THANK YOU LEGENDS

This podcast comes off feeling like everyone is playing a drinking game around who can say the most wild baseless shit and Nerd is sober with the facts

Clown talking about Dodo birds going extinct during caveman times is absolutely bewildering

THIS IS BY FAR my favorite podcast, you four are real characters and its always (from the bottom of my stone cold heart) brings me joy and warmth. BTW what was that fucking slug story christ! not goin to bed tonight the slug voices might start talking to me

I'm really glad to see a follow up episode. I was worried it was going to be a one off

The visuals during that Dodo bird rant were perfect.

Guys relax, it's quite the contrary. The neighbor just played "I feel good" on full volume accidentally

the renders are so cool

this is the first podcast i like to actually watch/listen to

I really love these podcasts, keep up the great work

I’m so glad you guys are keeping the podcast going! I really thought it would just be a one-off.

Looks like we're in for a treat this Episode!

Episode 2, and this is still the best thing I have ever bared wittness to.

Best group for a podcast if you want an episode every 12 months
