Trash Taste Official Spelling Bee Challenge! | Trash Taste Stream #9 

"Joey, your word, is Box." "Garnt your word is cake" "Connor, your word is Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia"

“I cant believe Marie Antoinette started cancel culture” fucking sent me

Trash Taste After Dark: Jeopardy (hosted by Chris Broad). Would be absolutely hilarious, and the categories could be like “Japanese history”, “Welsh town names”, “Traditional Thai Food”, “Bookwalker exclusive titles”, “Anime Opening Songs”, and “Potpurri” which is literally just about anything they have talked about in season 1 of Trash Taste.

Connor spelling "nghaw" after Garnt spelled "boroughmeter" was fucking hilarious 😂

"Manger is Manga with a hard r" damn near took me out lol.

The Trash Taste podcast just casually planning a modern-day French Revolution

Family Feud! Team A: Garnt and Sydney Team B: Joey and Aki Team C: Connor and Chris

I'm from the Philippines. I remember the time when we had an Australian exchange student. In English class, we had at least 3 spelling test every week. And this girl came to the teacher and said "I don't need it, I speak the language" The teacher laughed then said the first word- "onomatopoeia". The reaction on that girl's face was priceless when she whispered to me "what the fck is that word?" She got 3 out of 15, while the rest of us got around 11 to 13. Since that day, her attitude towards our class changed. Good for her. Edit: this happened when we were in 2nd year highschool.

Mudan, yet again, killing the editing game with his speed. Love to see it.

That silence after Connor butchered 'gnaw' was just gold

The sheer confidence Connor had while spelling Nghaw and the silence that followed has me on the floor rn

It's actually rather easy to fuck up mashed potatoes. Here are some of the common mistakes that people do : - Failing to boil the potatoes long enough, which results in a crunchy mash. - Overboiling the potatoes, which ruins the taste of potato. - Peel VS no peel. Many have debated whether one should peel the potatoes at all. Depending on the type of potato and personal preference, peeling is not always necessary. - Under mashing and over mashing of potatoes. Some people like to have some chunks left in the mash. Others prefer the mash to be buttery smooth. It is fairly easy to over-mash the potatoes. - Next we enter the complex realm of adding stuff into the mash. Pure mash potatoes with no spice can be rather bland. Thankfully mash potatoes go well with just about any spice. The trick is to no overdo it. I've had mashed potatoes with too much salt, too much pepper, to much water, milk, butter, sour cream, various herbs, mustard, ketchup and the list goes on and on. Too much spice will easily overpower the subtle flavor of potato and ruin the dish. - And obviously, using anything but actual raw and fresh potatoes as the base for the mash is an automatic fail. Powdered potatoes, potato paste, the frozen pre-mashed potato that comes in a box, all of that stuff is vile, yet some people insist on using it over actual potato, or in conjunction with actual potato, which should be a war crime honestly. And that's just trying to avoid failing to do a passable mash. Perfecting the mash potato is an art form in and of itself that requires years of practice and fine tuning. Even a tiny variation in the balance of spice and added liquid can make the difference between a SSS+ mash and a A- mash. Some people are used to doing it by ear, but for the uninitiated who wishes to reach new heights in the art of the potato mash, measuring cups and scales are a must to achieve that perfect balance.

This is so funny to watch as a french native speaker, because Garnt is actually god damn right. Almost every word considered hard to spell in this stream actually comes from french or is transparent. So it seemed very easy to me even though I'm not an english native speaker. Out of the 45 words that appeared in this Spelling Bee, 15 came from french, and 24 are transparent. And most of them were right at the end, so the harder ones, like "rendez-vous", "manœuvre", "penchant" or "dénouement".

Them saying ''Guerrilla'' is french, as a Spaniard, has just fucking killed me inside.

I find myself rooting for Cannur almost always now. He is the underdog.

Garnt : The only way to win a spelling bee is to be French *Every Indian child and their whole family tree turns around*

I lost it at GNAW. Legit tears are falling and I'm laughing til my lungs hurt!

As a french guy it's always a pleasure to annoy english persons struggling with the words they adopted from us.

1:02:52 lmao the Joey's face of comprehending and not believing if Connor actually said that is just 😂 He got so lost for a sec

spelling bees are so stressful man. i'm always reminded of how when i was in elementary school, i had participated in a county-wide spelling bee that had a fairly large audience watching. the word i got was "abdomen". i knew how to spell this word. i didn't consider this word particularly difficult. but i got so anxious in front of such a big crowd that the first letter that came out of my mouth.... was "z".

When Mitski said "I bet on losing dogs" she was actually talking about rooting for Connor

When Garnt was going through an anime flashback when spelling "quintessential", I was all over the floor!!!!

this is several times harder because of the boys' posh accents. Word - Antennas Connor: And Tennis Garnt: Antanner

As an Italian native speaker and someone who studied Latin, this is damn fun. a lot of the words were easily recognizable to me, and seeing Garnt CRUMBLE before "Antenna" was fun, lmao. Anyway, the reason because some words end with "weird letters" in their plural form is because they were latin words. Antenna comes from Antemna and the plural is Antemnae (which is pronounced uh-teh-m-nah-eh for you english speakers). Same goes for formula/formulae or workds like cactus/cacti (the latter of which is pronounced cuh-ck-tee)

I was dying for a full 15 mins watching Joey's eyes and Garnt's reaction after hearing Connor spell Gnaw LMAOOOOOOO

To answer Connor's question for why some fruits smell so bad: It's an evolutionary trait to deter certain animals/parasites from eating them. Thats also why plants devised spices, its a poison for parasites so they stop eating them. We as humans just evolved to generally like spices[specially in hotter regions] because its how we preserved food. So it was evolutuonary that "You need to be able to eat spice cuz thats how we perserve food."

I literally cried at "Gnaw" 🤣 it's been a while since i did that. Thanks Connor

The boys: "Constellation." Me: "Aha! Reading Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint is finally paying off!"

Garnt: "I don't like Durian" Southeast Asian Councils: "we here by revoke your Southeast Asianest"

"Garnt's Asian, what's your excuse?" Garnt: "Umm I don't fucking know" Me: He's built different.

Garnt and Conner: "No British dishes are disgusting." Jellied Eel: *EXISTS* It sucks when Connor and Joey give intentionally bad sentences. 1:33:05 No, they don't. LOL.

The SILENCE after gnaw made me stop too and rewind, then tears falling

I'm now no longer using the word Gnaw and just replacing it with NGHAW entirely... a tribute to monke

Gotta love how Garnt got basement and immediately after Connor got hit with freakin loppers. Legit never heard that word in my life.

Ok, "that sounds cursive" had me laughing way more than it should have.

This is the most amount of times I've heard everyone on set laughing their asses off.

I'm still laughing at Boroughgraph

" I will eat a bug testacle with a smile..."- Joey. Well, you guys know what to make him eat next time lol

Watching them struggle with 3rd grade level vocab is both painful and hilarious

As a non-native English writer, I often have to let the auto-correct complete words like "available", "odyssey", "miscellaneous" and "righteous" for me when I chat or write on social media because I got at least one spell wrong. I somehow expected to see more of that kind of words in this competition and less terms taken over completely 1:1 from other languages.

I just noticed how all the boys upgraded their phones but stayed on the same brand, Garnt with the samsung, Connor the pixel and Joey the iPhone… these guys have some brand loyalty

The smell of durian is related to how it attracts the animals that pollinate them (bats). Bats don't rely like birds or bees do on visual cues since they're doing this nocturnally. The over-ripe smell of durian tells the bats about the condition of the fruit in terms of ripeness.

49:20 to answer the question why there are two spellings for each antennae/antennas and formulae/formulas, it's because both words came from the Latin language, where one of the plural forms is by adding -e at the end of the word, depending on the word's declension and case. So when they came into the English language, one could create the plural form in the English way by adding -s at the end, or in the Latin way by adding the suitable letter(s) or form based on the declension and case. The other info that I wanna share is that you can probably guess on how a word is spelt even if you've never seen it based on the language origin. For instance, words that have "ough" in them are most likely come from the older form of English. Words that have -graph are from the Greek language. So, having the "ough" in a Greek-origin word would be strange, just like the Garnt's case where he spelt it as baroughgraph instead of barograph. English absorbed many words from many languages such as French, Latin, Greek, Arabic, Spanish, etc and this is one of the reasons why English is so fucked up when it comes to spelling.

Watching this as a non-native English speaker who pretty much learned English through the Internet is so funny because I have no trouble spelling any of these words, but if I had to read something new out loud I know I would embarrass myself because English makes no sense lol

That's how Arnold says it. "Get to tha choppa NGHAW!"

I love watching all of chat getting Cahoots wrong. Such a generational difference because of the popular school/educational game

Connor messing up 'Quarantine' and 'Disinfectant' made me do a double take

For the next Livestream, they should all have their own quizzes they give to the other two about their respective languages. Welsh, Japanese, and Thai

connor was suffering oh my god his words were hard from the jump

Still hoping connor gets a big W one of these challenges 😂💀

It has been ages since I have laughed so damn hard that tears rolled down my face and I lost my breath. Connor and his "Hngaw" fucking did it though 🤣. And worst yet, he was so fucking confident with it! Thank you, Connor. I needed that laugh. Edit: Joey also brought up how confident he was, lol!

I’m 99% sure that Joey had so much fun playing these After Dark quizzes that he decided to make Man Vs. Weeb.

Yet another backsound for my ears while doing the dishes

It’s funny every time they emphasize ER they get an American accent

It’s so funny still being in high school and being able to spell all the words they’re nervous about in the beginning. They’re really worried about peppermint and disembark lol. I love them

Love that both of them thought of the evil french laugh 2:00:55

Connor's query regarding the reason for Durian being smelly is rather intriguing. As a Biology student, I know that peppers have developed capsaicin as a defense against animals for evolutionary purposes ( excluding birds for they do not have any grinding teeth that would damage the seeds). Is there a similar reason for exotic fruits with a repulsive odor?

Plumbing is spelled stupidly because it's named after the Latin word for lead, which is Plumbum, because at the time(Ancient Rome if I'm not mistaken) pipes were made of lead.

I have never screamed/cried with laughter harder when Connor got ‘quarantine’ wrong

i love this podcast.these three can instantly change my mood i thank u guys sm for existing

Ok, there was a lot of funny moments worth commenting about, but how is everyone ignoring the fact that they confirmed weekly Trash Taste streams near the end! I'm so happy!!!

No honestly, it felt like Connor got way more difficult words than the others xD Still doesn't excuse the nghaw though

Doing typing speed challenges helps so much with spelling and I've realized it purely thanks to this.

This was absolutely amazing! Please bless us with more quiz shows!

Joey: "I like Natto" Shion: "MASTER LIKES RANCID THINGS!"

Something I learned about my school upbringing with this episode: having taken classes in German, English, French and Latins REALLY fucking helps with the ability to intuitively spell English words. I'd wager "constellation" has 2 L's because of the word "stellar" (or something derived from that) meaning star in latins. Also apparently we read a shitton of words no normal person would ever come across? I think the only ones that I genuinely never saw written were wren and surmised. Also also, the British accents absolutely do not help with spelling, considering Brits love to drop letters while speaking.

Connor: "how much kanji do you know?" Garnt: "no"

why does cannonade sound like such a chris word? i can perfectly hear him say it in my head with his accent

"what British food is actively disgusting" Jellied Eels

I agree Connor had the hardest words. Garnt had some ones that came off as hard with the pronunciation though.

this was a confidence boost for me lol. the boys were on the spot though.

Writing this not expecting any of y’all to read but I really wanna thank the boys and the trash community for helping me during some tough times during my final exams coming up (Australian kids will relate). I really enjoy the banter and good times I’m guaranteed to have for 2 hours a week and you guys talking about your experiences has really helped me find direction for the next stage of my life. Writing this less than 24 hours before my first exam, so from a hopeful high school graduate THANK YOU!

After seeing the title I surmised that Connor would lose.

"No British dish is bad, its just bland" Jellied eel has entered the chat

“No one does Math Olympics” _Me, an Asian, who’s participated in a lot of Math tournaments as a student._ *_sweats_*

The timestamps shows the progression of how hard each word becomes so cool

"How can someone have negative cooking talent?!" Electro Archon walks into the room: "Allow me to introduce myself"

I know it's an in joke that Connor loses every single competition they have on the show but maaann this game was stacked the fuck against him from the start. Sure he's not that great at spelling but some of the words he got I feel like aren't just hardly known but hardly _English,_ like goddamn

Im so down for a kanji bee or something related to japanese since i've started studying japanese around the same time connor did it would be really fun to play along

this episode made me laugh so much during midterm exams, incredible

Connor laughing his ass off at the other monkes meanwhile the words get to Connor and monke falls apart

I want to thank you guys for uploading more frequently. Every normal episode or After Dark episode makes my day. Appreciate it boys

I think i understand Connor's 'Nghaw' 'Ngh' + 'Aw'. (phonetically)

when they were talking about playing jeopardy, my immediate thought was mogul money... that mashup would be beautiful

Wouldn’t have thought spelling bees could be this fun to watch

Garnt continues with protagonist power, and Connor was robbed again, as go circle

I love how the moment the word "pardon" came out, all the nousagis came out at the same time

Garnt:”The word is Poop” Joey:”FUuuuuuuuucKkkkkkkk”

"That was a trombone." The song Joey was doing is done on trumpet by a guy literally name Timmy Trumpet. The "When Mom's Not Home" meme (which uses that same song) does use a trombone, though.

"The bad people who could not spell good" - solid light novel title right there

I fucking love these challenges. Could even bring on guests for this like Chris

the laughs on the back is refreshing XD

re: the food talk at the start - holy shit Garnt and Joey have faith in humanity, never assume people can't fuck something up.

As part of bilingual gang, now I don't feel as bad when I mispronounced/misspelled an English word

Garnt getting Quintessential again and getting it right the second time, is the most Protagonist thing ever.

Funniest episode I've seen so far (including all the regular Trash Taste podcasts)! 🤣

These random updates are a surprise, a pleasant one at that. Really made my day good sirs

Everytime garnt describes a new savory British pastry I'm just like "oh so a hot pocket but with ______"

I laughed so hard during this episode. More games with the boys!

Couldn't control laughter at "BarOUGHgraph" and "Nghaw"
