The Technical Difficulties Q&A with Gary and Chris 

The "never happened" thing is going to make me die an unfinished man.

It's a shame the Park Bench has gone. I'd like to see an updated version of this 4 years later

Says, "head of the Douglas Adams society," like it is totally normal. I know I'm in the right place...

wait, is that the one and only gary brannan, gary brannan?

what are the best biscuits?? MYSTERY BISCUITS, OH YEAH

When the quick question about the mascot of Citation Needed came up, I immediately thought "Gary" even before Chris said it. I mean, c'mon! He's everybody's favorite Gary Brannan, Gary Brannan.

We finally got the team together on a Park Bench. Thanks to everyone who twote! -- Tom

This big guy broke in and said "You're an archivist Gary", That's how it happened. Yes I'm rewatching this year later....again

"Do we have anything for after the credits?" "No." *cut* My sides...

The mysteriousness around the whole Techdif crew, so much vital information to get context bleeped, being not British, it's mesmerizing.

Gary's shirt's bottom button is undone. Reminds me of George the fingers.

try replacing Wikipedia with urban dictonary

My mum was an archivist! Sorry. Literally nobody talks about archivists. They deserve credit!

There is an archive for York university radio but Tech Diff seems to have been too old for them. I wish there was a way to listen to those because you guys are somehow the only podcast that wakes me up on my way to uni

Stick 'em in robes, give 'em pointy hats and ladies and gentle men I give to you - the students of the Unseen University

"There are only so many interesting Wikipedia articles we can go on" Maybe so Tom, maybe so, but there's enough that that really isn't something you ever need to worry about.

Radio show since 2004?! You guys have been friends as long as I've been alive!

Laughed harder about the after-the-credits part than I should have..

Funny thing, given Tom's answer... someone I used to work with had a peculiar icebreaker in asking each new person he met (and was likely to be interacting with for any significant period) to arrange a list of popular biscuits (on little laminated bits of paper) in their order of preference... and had a spreadsheet with the aggregated answers in it reaching back quite some years. The board leader by a _considerable_ margin was the Chocolate Hobnob. Though it wasn't mine, I rather prefer a plain one, it works better when dunked...

One time while watching F1 they mentioned the race engineer for the Haas team named Gary Gannon, i wouldn't have thought it just based off that, but since they also said he had a fantastic radio voice i thought it highly likely to be Techdif Gary. Today i found out his last name is actually Brannan and that he works as an Archivist.

That Pink act is rediculous for something called 'Wireless' festival.

horse sized ducks! due to the cubed-square law the legs would probably collapse, leaving it immobile

12:16 Gary's mouth is experiencing technical difficulties. Please try again later.

When Matt said "in dimly lit room with other people" me and the significant other both said "chained to a wall in a sex dungeon"... this is probably a good thing. :)

Everyone's favourite emoji, Gary Brannan.

in another 40 years you'll still be doing this, but it'll be last of the summer wine.

I'm sad I'm five years late for this. I've just found the group and have been dying laughing!

What job does Chris have? Axe murderer?

The Mysterious Mr. Toast.

11:22 That's even worse than the slow-mo close up of Matt's face

Tiny minority who have just tap water at the pub unite! :P

I am fucking pumped for new season of citation needed

third time watching this, and the after the credits bit still gets me

AHA! The genesis of "We still don't have an outtro"

Tom doesn't age, he just doesn't. Take a look at breaking the news from 9 years ago, HE LOOKS THE SAME.

Tom geeking out over pink is my favorite

You should use Wikipedia: Unusual Articles as a list of potential articles.

Is there an archive of the Uni radio shows? I'm really curious about the regeneration now!

York University student radio, isnt that also where Jay Foreman got his start?

My God... the Technical Difficulties...listed to PENDULUM?!

YESSS! More tech diff! I'm getting to the end of the acceptable number of times you can rewatch/listen to a single show. I've exhausted both the podcast and the citation needed shows. would love some more reverse trivia, especially of live, in the Bristol/Cardiff area

Seeing this video in my subscription box was possibly the most excited I've been in months.

+1 for Pendulum! Fuck it, it's drum and bass....

I just love all of you guys so this was awesome!! And I'm thrilled to hear the next season of Citation Needed has been recorded! Yay!! So, you better crack on and get to editing Tom - we're impatiently waiting!! 😉

I love the audio episodes, I listen to them all the time.

Before I watch this I just want to say omg! They've let them outside!

Can't wait for the next series of Citation Needed! Great bunch of guys

IDEA: reverse taboo use only the words that are "forbidden" in order for the others to figure out the original word

I love the reverse trivia! Please do more of them.

I don't know why but for some reason I can't s top watching these park bench videos...

I love hearing all your comments on York. As it is where i live, i find it hilarious to picture you all up to your shenanigans xD

is there any way to hear the original run of techdif, pre-podcast?

Just realised that Gary and Matt actually wore blue (shirt and jumper, respectively) in Series 5 of Citation Needed and not purple as I saw in the videos filmed in Chris's kitchen. Chris's T-shirt was also redder in Series 5 than this.

I LOVE YOU GUYS :) There is not much funnier than the bunch of you together. I cannot wait to see the next season :)

You get my Like, haven't even seen the video yet, but I LOVE everything you guys do. You guys Rock!

This was the least informative and the most hilarious Q&A I've ever seen. BTW still listening to the old 1984 reverse trivia thing on the train to work sometimes

It took me a solid minute before I realized that you were talking about what I would call "cookies".

Is there any chance you guys could archive any of these podcast shows and your other old works on RU-vid? I don't think I've seen or heard any of your older work, and everything I've seen so far has been either informative, and/or gut-bustingly hilarious, and I want more. :D

I never before truly understood the expanse of the techdif connected universe.

I just gotta say Chris, you have a beasty beard every viking would be proud of. Keep it going!

"do we have anything for after the credits?" "no"

I never realised how large Matt is. It's like someone took a regular person and scaled them up

I remember when I saw the Flaming Lips, he was riding through the crowd wearing rainbow wings, I touched the wings, got sad cuz the picture I got of him was bad, and then got informed that it was okay, because "[I am] an angel now". Best concert moment for me

And finally you mention Muse!! Best British band in my humble opinion.

Now I really, really, really look forward to the new Citation Needed.

Abbeydale moonshine! Love it! Go to drink as a student in Sheffield!

That Leeds union Public Service Broadcasting was incredible!

Thanks for answering my question. For the record, I side with tom. Chocolate hobnobs are up there

"...you regenerated?" cute.

I've seen P!nk live too, and can agree it was one of the most incredible things in the world!

Where's the guy that's usually wearing the red tshirt?

What I've heard is never put anything in an email that you wouldn't want on the front page of a newspaper

Ah DT... brings back memories!

Thank you for introducing me to Pendulum! I had never heard of them but OMG it is a vibe. 💜🎶💜

Gary, you're an archivist!

When Matt says the one time we went out to get lunch around 13:15 Was that before Gary mentioned the samosa butty?

Best biscuits....... MYSTERY BISCUITS!!!!! Oh yeah!

Tom, you guys need to do more like the old show. It was so funny. xD

What a coincidence, Lee Adama is my favourite cheese as well, Matt!

Oh yes! Abbeydale moonshine and magic rock highwire! My kinda guys!! 😂😂 love that stuff

They were listening to Pendulum: confirmed that one of them has excellent taste in music.

Looking forward to new citation needed

Iiiii did not expect to hear "Harrogate Blue" as a favourite cheese, nice one, Chris!

Wait, new Citation Needed?! Yes, finally!

Citation needed's coming back!! Yay!!!

now that is good after credits stuff that is, looking forward to the new season, is going to be a ton of laughing involved again :)

Matt's shirt is punderful! where d'ya get it? :)

Coming back to this, seeing as Chris now has twitter & instagram is wild

Living in Canada I have never heard of Hundred Reasons... though had I heard them in the early 2k's, unless their sound has changed with the times... idk will look into it more later, I am sure I would have loved them dearly. Thanks Matt p.s. I am still tossin' them on my phone for later

I wanna see that, Gary regenerating into Chris

Wait, Matt drinks Flying Dog? I didn't know you could even get that in the UK! I live right near their brewery so I always think of them very much as a local small brand.

Best one yet

Yay more Citation Needed!

Come on, let's have some more of this stuff.

2 months!! Come on man we need Citation Needed as soon as possible!!

Thank you to whichever time traveler went back to mess with Radio York's connections, leading to the creation of this wonderful series :)

new season omggg

i found this video on the same day ad i wore the t-shirt that matt's wearing😂

do a Dungeons and Dragons series or something?

Dewsbury man here. Not offended, it's bloody funny.
