I am the 15 saltines guy and this gave me a good laugh. As an update, my shoulder is fine after surgery. The doctors claim it was from a decades old injury but it could have been the saltines...we may never know.

I understand that slices of za and saltines are very different culinary monsters, but I feel like I was reliving the '22 slices of CiCi's pizza' moment here. The fact it didn't dawn on any of them is making me lose it.

“Justin McElroy, food expert” “Is he a chef?” “No but he knows how to eat 6 very salty crackers in ten seconds.”

Since I first heard this episode I’ve been chomping at the bit to try the saltine challenge but there hasn’t been any in my house until today. I finally did it while listening to this video and I have to say I greatly underestimated this challenge. Look, I used to be able to eat a whole sleeve of those bad boys like they were nothing, but it dawned on me that a minute is actually a wicked small amount of time and the only way I could have even gotten all the crackers in my mouth in under a minute may have actually killed me from suffocation. Also my grandma totally got off brand crackers which have less salt but are also somehow drier AND thicker so I feel I may have been at a slight disadvantage. I did the 2 chunk 2 chunk 2 chunk method and got to about 5 crackers (since I ate half of the last chunk) but now my mouth hurts and I drank all my soup while I was waiting for the boys to finish goofing and get to the challenge part. 0/10 do not recommend.

the diversion they take to Sofia the first lmaooo

The image was very good

Terror? No... No *Anticipation*

This is the first time I’ve heard a bit before finding it on your channel. Stonks.

OKAY, this isn't relevant, but I remember one bit where they were discussing how they wish nature documentaries came with disclaimers about how they would never have to deal with any of those animals irl, and I can't remember which episode/clip it's from. Does anyone know?

15:33 "One thousand one, one thousand two, one thousand three; did you finish?"

i can and frequently do eat a whole tube of ritz in about 5-10 mins, maybe less

15:52 "I will go to Wendy's!"

I would try three saltines and the first ones, very quickly down. Then struggle with the last three?
