Will You Survive... The Podcast
Tarp = Map? Survival Word Association Challenge
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Dive into the minds of our survival podcast hosts as they abandon their usual movie reviews for a hilarious word association challenge that reveals just how differently we all think about survival concepts.
The premise seems simple enough: one host thinks of a survival-related word while the others try to guess it, receiving numerical ratings for each guess. But what unfolds is a fascinating exploration of how our brains make connections—sometimes logical, sometimes bewildering—between survival concepts and equipment.
When "map" becomes the target word, confusion reaches epic proportions. Despite hints about forests, trees, and wood, the logical progression (wood becomes paper becomes map) remains elusive to our frustrated guessers. This moment perfectly encapsulates how survival thinking requires connecting dots in unexpected ways. Other targets like "shelter," "heat," "two-way radio," and "antibiotics" create similar challenges, with each revealing something about our hosts' unique approaches to survival logic.
Beyond the laughs, this episode offers genuine insight into how survival experts categorize and prioritize equipment and concepts. The highest ratings consistently go to fundamental survival elements—the things you'd actually need first in a crisis—while specialized equipment often receives lower scores unless directly related to the target word.
Whether you're a survival enthusiast looking to test your own knowledge or simply enjoy listening to three friends descend into increasingly desperate guessing strategies, this episode delivers both entertainment and subtle education. Give it a listen, then ask yourself: would your mind have made the connections needed to survive this game?
Hello survivors, and welcome to another episode of Will you Survive, the Podcast. Today I wanted to switch it up, guys. I feel like I'm the host who does games the most and I said screw it, let's not watch a movie. That was totally intentional and not at all, because I kept forgetting to pick a movie and send it to you guys. That would be irresponsible and I'm not like that. Joining me for this game that I will announce later are my two co-hosts, alex and TJ.
Speaker 2I'm Alex.
Speaker 3I am TJ.
Speaker 2He is TJ. You put the emphasis on the wrong syllable.
Speaker 1Yeah, he really did. He like Christopher Walken. Did you know what Christopher Walken does?
Speaker 3he emphasizes every wrong word you know I can't do a Christopher Walken.
Speaker 1I don't know how I can't do it either it's crazy he puts it all in the wrong it's wrong it's kind of weird.
Speaker 2I just got a weird speech impediment.
Speaker 3I can't do it either, but he's. It's crazy. He puts it all in the wrong.
Speaker 4It's wrong the way he does it, it's all wrong I don't know, it's kind of weird.
Speaker 3It's kind of weird. I just got a weird speech impediment when I try to do his voice.
Speaker 2I don't know who you're talking to.
Speaker 3Shout out Christopher Walken, you're talking to me all wrong, instead of being the.
Speaker 1None of us have a good Christopher Walken. He's a tough one. You know, I think we should stop trying, Christopher. So this game, I am stealing this premise. It's been all over TikTok, but there's one particular podcast that I should have done my research and figured out their name. Who is those two funny guys? You know those two funny guys on TikTok Bobby Lee. You know them?
Speaker 3No, not those guys. Is it the black and black one, or is it the slightly Mexican white one?
Speaker 2That one. He said the black and black one.
Speaker 3What the fuck is that one called?
Speaker 1Yeah, he always says crazy shit. You know who I'm talking about, right?
Speaker 3Yeah, there's the one video where he was talking about how his daughter Frankie Frankie, frankie and oh, I don't know the other guy's name.
Speaker 1Frankie says crazy shit, but the podcast, if TJ finds it yeah. Mostly stealing the premise from them. Oh no, I've also seen another group. I've seen it all over TikTok.
Speaker 3I'm realizing I've seen a lot of different TikToks. If everybody's doing it, it's a completely original idea and if anybody has a fucking issue with it, they could take it up with me absolutely.
Speaker 1uh, tj will fight you and then make out with you. So the premise of this game is that I will have a word picked in my head and you will say a whatever word comes to your mind, and your goal is to guess the word that is in my head. With every guess that you make, I will give that word a rating from one to a hundred, and one meaning you're very far from the answer and a hundred meaning that is the answer. So, for instance, let's say the word is ocean and you say water, I might say 90. And then let's say you say I don't know chlorine. Well then I'm going to say probably like two. So it's more based off of my subjective judgment of how I, how I'm associating things.
Speaker 2Okay.
Speaker 1Um, but that's part of the fun and that's part of you guys to try and figure out what the hell I'm thinking, so do we understand it's going to be tough. Yeah, I think I get it. Um so, basically I worry for you, Alex, because TJ and I share a brain cell sometimes.
Speaker 2You guys share.
Speaker 1I'll try to say you guys share a brain cell between you two and they're both fighting for third place, yeah, well, so I'm thinking of yeah, that's exactly what's happening, by the way, alex. So how do we want to do this, guys? Do we want to make this competitive or do we want to just kind of do this collaboratively?
Speaker 4I don't know how I feel like if we?
Speaker 3I don't know, did you already have words picked out?
Speaker 1So, yes, I have words picked out. I have a bunch of different categories. I doubt we're going to get to all of them, but so let's start with one when we'll do each of you separately the Basement.
Speaker 3Yard.
Speaker 1Podcast, those guys.
Speaker 3Yeah, they've done this. It took me so long because my whole podcast is full of true crime and just to uh.
Speaker 2Just to uh circle back to one of the commenters. Nerdy vet says worst game ever due to laziness lol what do you mean?
Speaker 3yo minus one point to that guy.
Speaker 2Yeah, what the fuck that guy. Whoever that guy is. Now I waited to say this, but just FYI, do you know that chlorine is highly associated with ocean water? How?
Speaker 3Salt. How is that chlorine Sodium?
Speaker 2chloride, sodium chloride.
Speaker 1Oh well, see, you have to know that I'm dumb, so you're gonna have to figure that out I get it.
Speaker 2I'm getting it because I feel like you would actually maybe figure out that I would not know that I was trying to to think when you you gave a good example, because this is based on and you said your subjective knowledge of the subject, because it was like wait, but as I'm sitting here thinking, you said chlorine is a two, so I'm trying to decipher what you mean by that. I'm like, oh, you have no idea that chlorine is derived from the ocean.
Speaker 1So I'm gonna throw you guys off with stuff like that, because these are all survival themed and, as we know, out of the three of us, I know the least about survival. Okay, so this is going to be awesome for you guys. Somebody says, I immediately think of 21 pilots okay, no, well, I, I was thinking pools and I was like I'm trying to get you away from I get that towards ocean.
Speaker 2I get that now. Now I'm, I'm, I'm jiving, I'm following, wait, what is the word? I'm vibing? Is that right? I'm with it.
Speaker 1I'm hip, did I use it? Is that right Vibing? Yeah, sure, that's a vibe.
Speaker 2All right, that's a vibe.
Speaker 1Are we ready?
Speaker 2Got a vibe All righty, all right, so.
Game Rules Explanation
Speaker 1So we'll start with doing it individually, and then we'll see how long each one takes. And then maybe we'll start just doing them together. Alex, you're first, let's see. So. This first category is basic needs Basic needs.
Speaker 2Yes so.
Speaker 1I have it in my mind.
Speaker 2Okay, this is kind of a not quite 20 questions, right? Like do I just make a guess or do I ask questions?
Speaker 1You just make a guess.
Speaker 2Okay, all right.
Speaker 1Basic needs the knowledge that you're going to get is my response to your answer.
Speaker 4Okay.
Speaker 2That's how you determine where you're going after that. Fire um 30, um uh water, 30 basic needs, um okay, uh bug out bag oh well 30 I'll say like 25, okay, okay, okay I gotta push you in the right direction I'm gonna go I'm gonna just say everything is 30 I know I'm like uh, trees, trees yeah no, oh 30 um charcoal, what?
Speaker 1uh 10 and this is gonna be very specific, right, like you said, like ocean um, yeah, it's specific enough okay, um like, if you give me an answer within the category, I'll accept that is to say emergency rations, too specific I would just kind of put that under food, I think okay, so.
Speaker 2So this is I'm going for subcategories yeah, if you hit something within like.
Speaker 1So the main category is basic needs. If you hit something within your answer, I'll give it to you so I got water, fire, uh, fire water, bug out bag. Well I mean, I'll give you a much higher rating actually what about food? Didn't you say oh, you said fire fire water oh I would associate it more like 47 um when you know the answer, I think this will make a lot more sense. Okay, I hope uh you're welcome to help tj, although right now he is your competitor, but I'm trying to think like.
Speaker 3I don't want to help him, okay, no, he doesn't. He doesn't deserve help. I think I already know what it is Really.
Speaker 1Are you giving a hint right now?
Speaker 2What about a canister? Canister, yeah, container 15.
Speaker 1Okay, that's a basic need.
Speaker 3To carry. If you don't got Tupperware, I don't have fire for water.
Speaker 4Zombie apocalypse.
Speaker 3What are you going to do If?
Alex's First Guess: Basic Needs
Speaker 1you don't got Tupperware for all your canned goods. What about air, air, water? I want to say 30, but I wouldn't really associate. I would say like 10. Camp, 90. 10. Really, associate.
Speaker 2I would say like 10 camp, uh, 90, 10, oh god, 94 shelter. There you go, okay, okay took you that fucking long.
Speaker 3I had it the whole time all right, let's see what you get?
Speaker 1did you put stuff on top of your head to mimic shelter, or was that just shelter? Or was that just you doing it?
Speaker 2You got to love Nerdy Vet.
Speaker 3Basically your number one fan. Official said camping and I'm like shelter.
Speaker 2Yeah yeah, that was like Nerdy Vet says welcome to the show where the points don't matter yeah, the points.
Speaker 1Um, yeah, I'm hosting, so you got a good point. Don't matter, we'll see. I that that didn't take that long, so I think we could maybe do this, but we'll see. I don't know. It depends on who you ask, that's true.
Speaker 3TJ editing is like this is oh my God, how would it have just been. Like food, water, shelter.
Speaker 1Well, now I'm going to give you a trickier one, all right, all right.
Speaker 3I have it 30.
Speaker 1Food, food.
Speaker 3Wait, reverse it. Food, wait, reverse it. No, wait, so Chicken nuggets 47.
Speaker 147?
Speaker 3What the fuck that's such a random number. You're halfway there.
Speaker 1I'm trying to leave room. I'm halfway there actually. Maybe I should have given it lower. I would have thought about it that way vehicle 18. He rolls his eyes with every answer I give filter uh three, how the fuck is chicken nuggets 47. I feel like that's gonna really throw you off yeah, no, it's okay well can I help?
Speaker 2I'm just gonna go, you can?
Speaker 4I'm not going to okay it's, it's they're all so unnecessary, they're all survival related.
Speaker 3Yeah, okay, and you guessed chicken nugget.
Speaker 1We're under basic needs.
Speaker 3It's under basic needs. I need those. Okay Okay, someone's not surviving.
Speaker 1So food 60. Fire 90. No Campfire 92.
Speaker 3Rocket stove 88. Charcoal 60. Uh 88.
Speaker 1Charcoal Uh 60.
Speaker 3Fire starter 70.
Speaker 1Smoke Uh 62. I don't remember where I placed things when I give answers.
Speaker 3You put fire at 90. But I'm also giving answers, kind of fast Heat.
Speaker 1There you go. That was it. Heat I was considering giving. That was it Heat. I was considering giving a hint, but then I was like that might be cheating.
Speaker 2That is cheating. I didn't get a hint, yeah, because I didn't give you a hint.
Speaker 1Alright, well, I will say I think TJ got it faster, so I'm going to give him the point for that round, because points do matter actually. Ha you got bamboozled?
Speaker 2I think that's garbage.
Speaker 1We'll see if I remember them.
Speaker 2Garbage.
Speaker 1My handy-dandy notepad or sticky note. Boom TJ Alex.
Speaker 2Alex gets one.
Speaker 1Boom, tj got one. All right, let's see. So the next category is gear and tools. Now I will say I got this list from chad gpt and then I asked it to randomly pick two and holy fuck it. Uh, it picked a really difficult one for one of you and then I was like I can't do that. This would be another like 21 questions where I would just get nothing but shit for the the items that I chose for you guys. So I had to adjust. But what was it, halbert? It was paracord. And I was like there's no way they're getting paracord.
Speaker 4I would get paracord I would have got.
Speaker 1No, because I barely know what paracord is so I would not be able to help
Speaker 3you get to that various strings inside of a sheath of other fabric.
Speaker 1Yeah, see, I could have Googled it and maybe figured it out, but I'm not confident.
Speaker 3It's a very strong cord. You can use it for a lot of things. If you take it apart, you can use that shit for fishing line.
Speaker 4It's very good to make it work for knives.
Speaker 3You can use it for a bunch of stuff, anyways.
Speaker 2Making nets hammocks, hangocks hanging.
Speaker 1I'm learning a lot here, general consensus is yes, it's true, alex I have your word in my mind, okay and this one is we're no longer in basic needs. We're in gear and tools.
Speaker 2And tools.
Speaker 1Hatchet, uh, one Hammer Three.
Speaker 2Just because I don't want to say one again. Backpack Twenty Um tarp.
Speaker 1Oh, okay, this one's going to take some thinking, but 42. I got it.
Speaker 3I don't think you do. I got it.
Speaker 1If you do, you should send it to me on Discord. I'll look on my phone, Okay.
Speaker 4I know what it is.
Speaker 2What is it?
Speaker 1Paracord, paracord.
Speaker 4I'm just kidding, Wow you got it.
Speaker 3That's crazy, no Before. I actually solidify my little answer that I'm going to send to you. Yeah, okay, before I actually solidify my little answer that I'm going to, send to you.
Speaker 2Yeah, okay, you could do that in your head. Quiet voice, quiet voice. Okay, I'm going to remember what, yeah. No, it's dino nuggets Under gears and tools.
Speaker 3Yeah, tactical nugs.
Speaker 2So Tarp got me the highest. What about, let's see if I go backwards here? What about knife?
Speaker 1Yeah, five, okay, tent 24.
Speaker 2Oh, okay, so tarp is up there. 42. I feel like I might throw you off with that. Tent dropped. Hammock Five Okay, and it's gear and tools um nothing's higher so far than backpack or than no tarp, nothing's higher than tarp tj's guess is incorrect. I'm gonna say um, what about? It's a little too specific, I think. But what about plastic sheeting?
Speaker 150.
Speaker 2Okay, a little bit higher.
Speaker 1Your second guess is incorrect. What if I were to say water 35.
Speaker 2Okay.
Speaker 1How about clothes, seven Shelter when do I put that 40?
Speaker 240. Shelter tarp.
Speaker 1so then what about?
Speaker 2I'm doing you no favors here. What?
Speaker 1about. It doesn't have to be. You know, your guesses don't have to be specific objects.
Speaker 2If you're trying to get an idea of what it is, it could be more concepts and I can give you ratings on the concepts yeah and because I'm trying to connect where we got, we got tarp is the highest at 40 shelter. So I think I've got to maneuver around a little bit more and say, um, I'm trying to think of of things that I would have in a in a backpack.
Speaker 1You should think less like that and more like me.
Speaker 2Fuck, uh, okay, cell phone charger Two. I'm thinking like you. What the hell.
Speaker 1In what world does TARP being 40 mean cell phone charger?
Speaker 2I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 1No, I do have a reasoning for putting it where I put it. Okay, and I think when you hear what it is, it might make sense. It also just might not.
Speaker 2Okay, what about about? Um, let's go. I'm still trying to think of gear gear and tools um emergency blanket. Um, it's kind of like a tarp, but it's lighter at 38 okay, so um all your guesses are wrong, tj.
Speaker 1Now I'm pissed off I died I'm angry um, how about? I did not think this would be this difficult this one's tough um no.
Speaker 2So how shelter is it?
Speaker 1uh uh, water collection uh, tj guessed the same thing, 23.
TJ's Turn: Basic Needs
Speaker 2Food storage 3. But shelter's only 40. How do I get up there? Okay, so what do I go past Tarp If I were to say forest Backpack was down low.
Speaker 1Do you want me to give him the number? Forest?
Speaker 2Wait, he doesn't get the point for this, no he won't get the point.
Speaker 1Uh, it's a little bit of a leap. I'm gonna go with 40. Well, I'm gonna go with 50, 50 tarp forest.
Speaker 2I'm so lost.
Speaker 1Forest is 50, but tarp is only 40 when you guys get it, I I think it'll make sense shelter is only 42 josh it wasn't dead um, it's not.
Speaker 2I gotta, I gotta, break out of this shelter.
Speaker 1Thought here um hammock I think you already guessed that did I.
Speaker 2What was that? The last round?
Speaker 1I think you guessed hammock, because I specifically thought about using this item in a hammock and I was like 23, I think is what I said, or somewhere around there using the item.
Speaker 2Okay, so what about it's? Gear and tools okay tourniquet uh two uh well, let me say first aid one.
Speaker 1It's like, yeah, I'm gonna stick with it, but there's arguments for it shelter, first aid.
Speaker 3He also said, it's not for a trap. I'll give you a hint shelter first aid my first thought was maybe like a groundfall trap.
Speaker 2Yeah, it's not, it's not for trapping, it's not for food trapping, it's not for water trapping. Shelter, tarp and forest are camouflage 20. Jeez Forest Green.
Speaker 1I don't know, 38.
Speaker 2How do I get up Wood oh?
Speaker 1okay, 60.
Speaker 2Leaves 60.
Speaker 150.
Speaker 3Okay.
Speaker 2That's going the right. What about underbrush?
Speaker 148. Okay, you're going in the right direction.
Speaker 2Fire starter.
Speaker 1Back to like 23.
Speaker 2There goes my guess Tree sap.
Speaker 1I think 13. Well, no, I'd give it higher, I'd give it much higher than that, maybe like 42. 42.
Speaker 3I think that's fair. I'm definitely going to have to put some background music in this fucking episode, oh yeah.
Speaker 2This is fucking tough man.
Speaker 1Oh yeah, Do you want a?
Speaker 2hint yeah.
Speaker 1In our 21 questions episode you found it smart to hit different categories of gear and survival in broad strokes to try and eliminate some of the main things like first aid or shelter and things like that. I think that might help.
Speaker 2Okay, well, I already did shelter, I did first aid. I got the highest response on forest. Um, no response on food or water, um nothing on fire, um, what are you? What are you going?
Speaker 3smoke signal, uh gear and tools gear and tools tarp was the highest item of something I could think of yeah tree forest when the highest thing highest, you start thinking about what you could use that thing for instead of trying to get to something else, because it's not a tarp.
Speaker 2So no, it's not a tarp, but that was that's the highest item that I can think of carrying. This is gear and tools and can't carry a forest, can't carry.
Speaker 1Keep in mind associations or things that could be related, things that could be close to it or things that could just be leading you into the right direction. Let's see a saw. Uh, no, back down to like 10, well, maybe, maybe closer to like 30. I will say remember other tools were at like five and three but this is gear and tools.
Speaker 2Forest is a 50.
Speaker 1I think was forest, not 60?.
Speaker 2No, no tree was 60. No tree was 60.
Speaker 1No, fuck, is it close? You want to put it out there, boots 13. Fuck.
Speaker 2Yeah, so.
Speaker 1You guys are missing. Like a whole category that you guys are normally all over Hiking oh oh 57. Like a whole category that you guys are normally all over hiking oh oh 57 did I?
Speaker 2did I not say shelter? You said shelter okay, shelter I think I gave that like communication uh, maybe like 38 okay, um, I already did first aid 97 buick le sabre um zero fuck I thought.
Speaker 3I thought that was it. Hiking was fairly decent. Didn't reach somebody who has a 97 buick le sabre I'm driving.
Speaker 1That was that tree was at 60 tree was at 60, so what can you use from a tree? I already asked about a saw god, I am so about a drill. I'm so hoping that when the answer is given, everybody's like oh, that makes sense, and that they're not all angry at me you said a drill, a drill like, like 12.
Speaker 2Cabin 25. Okay, we're back down again. Tree is the highest. Wood got me nothing right. Wood was.
Speaker 1No wood got you something.
Speaker 2Wasn't that like 47 or something like that?
Speaker 1That sounds about right.
Speaker 3Well, I said hiking, and hiking got a high one too.
Speaker 1If tree's 60, maybe I would give wood like 62. Oh, wood is a little more in the direction I don't know if you ever said wood, but I'll give it 62. If I said something else before, I was wrong.
Speaker 2Wood is 62.
Speaker 3An egg salad sandwich from the 7-Eleven Forest is 50, tree is 60,.
Speaker 2Wood is 62.
Speaker 1That's it. It's the egg salad sandwich from the 7-eleven on 57th street yes, um of course canopy uh 13 purple so it has nothing to do with the tree itself.
Speaker 2Wood 62 I gotta keep going in that direction. This is I'm still way too far off.
Speaker 1We're in concepts of a plan right now. Black Gear and tools.
Speaker 3Would a black use this?
Speaker 2Gear and tools.
Speaker 1No, definitely not.
Speaker 2And you say we would ordinarily be all over this category.
Speaker 1You guys would normally have already hit this category. You guys haven't even hit the category and that's crazy to me.
Speaker 2How? What category could we be missing? Food, water, shelter?
Speaker 1we already said that's pretty low on the list, like 38, because you guys have done like first aid, you guys have done food stuff. You guys have done, uh, water purification stuff um heat. You've done first aid, you've done shelter I've done communication heat would be um typically under shelter.
Speaker 2I don't know that there's another category after that there most certainly communication and there's one more that's your gear um defense. Uh, oh you 45 what about weapon?
Speaker 1Defense 45. What about weapon?
Speaker 310. Fishing pole 15.
Speaker 2Bow and arrow 15.
Speaker 1Stealth One One.
Speaker 2Okay, so hiking forest.
Speaker 1One might be harsh, harsh, but it's low tree wood wood is a 62.
Speaker 2It's not high enough.
Speaker 1We're still way outside uh I feel like, at this point, do we want to start working as a team? I'm trying, yeah, yeah, I mean you have been, but Alex, Alex, Alex, Alex.
Speaker 3Navigation. What do you use for navigation in your everyday life? What do you use to navigate?
Speaker 2GPS.
Speaker 1What is a GPS 96.
The Map Controversy
Speaker 2Cell phone. What is a GPS A map? You go oh, jesus you guys were stuck on map so so wood for paper, yeah, oh, god, that's what?
Speaker 1because you guys, when you hit tarp, I thought well, it's a big square I hate kind a map but, like really big that fucked me so hard I had to get you towards it.
Speaker 1But then that's why I realized I threw you off with that. I kept saying I was like I probably threw you off with that. And then you said forest and I was like, oh, wood paper. Yes, let me get you closer to it. So I gave it 60 and then I gave tree 62, but you guys kept guessing tools and I kept putting the tools below 10 and you guys kept guessing tools that was the we were gonna get the right tool I'm like no, any tool.
Speaker 1I would have put a higher than 10 if it was a tool. It's close in the vicinity.
Speaker 3Josh, did that upset me so much? You already upset our number one fan.
Speaker 1Look, my mind is beautiful and it's fine. And it works fine, you're an artist.
Speaker 3Made of wood.
Speaker 2For sure. Curious George just says why Let me put this tarp down.
Speaker 1What was the problem? Which one was the problem? You tell me which one was the problem Besides tarp I admitted, tarp might have thrown you off, but I was trying to get you into a shape.
Speaker 2Nerdy is on your side, he said. Maps are technically tools. Curious. George said yeah, maps are technically tools Maps aren't always square, though Curious George said yeah, maps are paper.
Speaker 1In the 21 questions you guys were like first aid communication, navigation, water purification. Those were like your first four every time. And then we get here and you guys are like I've never walked around, I've never had to know where I'm going in the wild.
Speaker 2TJ's better be that hard. I don't know if it will be that sucks.
Speaker 1I didn't think that one would be hard.
Speaker 2Let's see.
Speaker 1Okay, TJ.
Speaker 2This is going to be so easy, tj. Turn your brain off, just guess.
Speaker 1I have yours in mind, and it's not paracord Food. That'd been so funny, though. Paracord Um 15. Water 15.
Speaker 3Navigation.
Speaker 1Uh, 30. It's not navigation. It's not navigation. Navigation 30.
Speaker 3It's not navigation 1976.
Speaker 2VW bus.
Speaker 1What'd you say?
Speaker 21976 VW bus.
Speaker 3That's it. I'm gonna go with Eric's Mind, circle, circle.
Speaker 1I could really throw you off, but I won't too square what, what this feels like he's trying to get into your head. This feels like the test I took. What?
Speaker 3shape is it? Eric is?
Speaker 1it a square for talented and gifted? No, but it's. You gotta be fair you.
Speaker 2You actually said you picked Tarp because it's a square like a map.
Speaker 1Okay, well, that's fair. So he's fucking with you. I mean 35?.
Speaker 3Oval 27?
Speaker 1Trapezoid, what 10?
Speaker 3The Decahedron.
Speaker 1Zero. What are we doing here? I feel like I broke you guys with map. I can't do this anymore, I love map I broke you guys on the third one.
Speaker 2Yeah, that fucking broke my brain. You had warning, you knew about chlorine.
Speaker 1Okay, you knew this is what was happening it's true, equals map you could use a tarp to make a map on it, could you not? I will be fair.
Speaker 2You kept it relatively low. I couldn't get past it. To figure it out.
Speaker 1I didn't say it was 70 or something.
Speaker 2I got it, that would have really fucked you up.
Speaker 3Yeah, metal.
Speaker 1What was your word again? Metal, oh 60. Oh, um 60. Nice, uh 40. No Lower 20.
Speaker 4Hmm.
Speaker 1Weapon 10. Tool oh wait, hang on, hang on, I'll give it a 35. Tool 30.
Speaker 3Trap 27.
Speaker 1I don't want to throw you off hunting five.
Speaker 3What was metal again?
Speaker 1I think I said 60. I would revise it to 50, but it it doesn't, it's not really going to make that much of a difference well, metal's made of carbon, and so is everything else, so just so you know there's some really good ones on the chat here.
Speaker 3I don't think you can see what's the category again of the thing Gear and tools Fabric.
Speaker 1What was your word again?
Speaker 3Fabric.
Speaker 2No, I forgot your word oh 18.
Speaker 3Shoes Five Pants.
Speaker 1Six. Well, oh wait, wait, let me give it 20, 20. Cargo Like cargo pants, it's cargo.
Speaker 3Cargo in general Cargo, how does that factor into the?
Speaker 1word 40. I feel confident with that Storage Uh. 26. Drugs 19. Jansport backpack. I feel like these answers are not giving you anything. I'm going to go 33.
Speaker 3It's giving me things. It's giving me things. I said water. What was water Water?
Speaker 1I think I said 15 for food and water, cube, cube, uh. 10, gloves, 11, shelter ah, this is uh, it's so similar to others. 40 environment uh, oh man, these are Environment no 21. I guess it was as hard as Hot, nah. 18. Cold, 18. Gray, what 24. I was trying to guess the color. Um, so specific color is it see?
Speaker 3because you can't even ask questions, it's just fucking word. Association eyes one. What was the highest? I can't even remember what the highest one I got.
Speaker 1I don't remember the highest one you got, do you remember?
Speaker 2No, I don't.
Speaker 1I think the highest one you got might have been it wasn't Shelter, I think it was Metal.
Speaker 2No.
Speaker 1Yeah, Metal was 60.
Speaker 2Oh yeah, okay, okay, okay, but.
Speaker 1I revised it to 50, but that's still the highest Hard you said hard yeah.
Speaker 3Ah 57., it's a fucking brick.
Speaker 1Ding ding ding Gear and tools. You know your defense brick. This might just come down to knowledge, but I'm gonna give it a 12. I'm pretty sure Flint's a rock, not a metal. So Well, it's more if this tool slash gear has flint in it Magnesium. I'm going to say 12 as well, for the same exact reason.
Speaker 3I said fire.
Speaker 1I don't remember. If you did say fire, I would say I think I said 15. Well, I would put it at 15.
Speaker 2You did for fire and water and food.
Speaker 3I helped you, Alex. Where's my help at? I'm going to need some help.
Speaker 4Because I said water, I broke my goddamn brain dude.
Speaker 3And Josh said canteen, and then you were like four. And, and he's like, so it's not canteen thank you very much.
Speaker 2So you did. You did the categories right food, water, shelter yeah, communication, is that an official guess communication?
Speaker 3communication 70 antenna 75 so satellite phone 82 try two-way radio two-way radio ding, ding, ding. I'll give you that was just radio oh, fucking, that was one of the ones on the 20 questions.
Speaker 4You fuck, yeah, well, I that was one I'm saying you guys, the one that we like really couldn't fucking get.
Speaker 1I thought you were gonna get it, because you you said navigation and I was like oh, he's gonna say communication next, and then you just abandoned that completely and just started guessing other stuff oh no, not me.
Speaker 2No, yeah, okay, I was looking at you, but I met him. Okay, I will admit something, okay, but hear me out it took me so long to jump in to help you, tj, because I seriously was fucking zoning out on this stupid minecraft, minecraft dude I was sitting here. I was so fucking zoned in on it and then all of a sudden, you're like Where's my help?
Speaker 4I was doing the same thing while you were fucking guessing.
Speaker 3I will say I did get that faster than he got his no.
Speaker 1I don't know, that was pretty equal, no, it took you 18 minutes Let me look where the clap marks are.
Speaker 3Oh yeah, Definitely faster.
Speaker 2Lies.
Speaker 1Okay. Well, I think we only need like one more right From each of us, and I think that should be enough.
Speaker 3Okay.
Speaker 1This next one, let's do, hmm Do we want to do?
Speaker 2items and resources, or environments and terrain? I think, judging by your knowledge on either of them, we might be better off with items and resources. What do you think, tj.
Speaker 1Yeah probably that you guys are the type to be like magnesium and I'm like I don't know, fucking 12 and like magnesium is made in that environment.
Speaker 3Well, no magnesium. You use this a fire starter fucker okay for radio.
Speaker 1When you said magnesium, when you said flint, I'm like yeah I don't know if those are in that.
Speaker 2I don't think so. No, it's not.
Speaker 3No, I get why metal was high.
Speaker 1Well, yeah, I said 60, and then I was like I feel like it's mostly plastic so that might kind of mislead you, but there's definitely metal in there.
Speaker 3It's probably rectangular.
Speaker 1When you said square, I gave you the highest one because I was like go for rectangle Every time I was leading you toward the direction.
Speaker 3You just abandoned that thought process, I don't know, for some reason. It's just your face dog, your face.
Speaker 1Just, mr x, there's just something about your face okay, I'm gonna give a hard one so that we have tons of of footage. Uh, I'm gonna give a hard one for both of you. I think you guys get me now right, you guys understand my brain.
Speaker 2No, there is no one who will believe that you and I did not coordinate that at all.
Speaker 1That was so in sync.
Speaker 3At least on our end.
Speaker 1That was at the exact same time.
Speaker 3Stupid dude.
Speaker 4This episode is so funny.
Speaker 1Fantastic so.
Speaker 3Alex.
Speaker 1I have your word.
Speaker 2Okay, items and resources.
Speaker 1Items and resources. Items and resources okay, food, uh 28 uh water 22 first aid uh 40 navigation uh 18 shelter 41.
Speaker 2Okay, first aid and shelter have the highest. Food is third items and resources. Um shelter and first aid, I'm gonna go hard in with tourniquet tourniquet uh well, 44 and what about, say, tarp 39 items and resources there's food? Water is lower, food was not too low, but I'm not confident with my answers on this one. First aid and shelter were the highest. Tarp doesn't even reach the level oh 42 for shelter, 40 for first aid.
Speaker 1I think I said 40 for shelter and 41 for first aid. Oh, 40 for shelter, 40 for first aid.
Speaker 2I think I said 40 for shelter and 41 for first aid, oh 40 for shelter, 41 for first aid items and resources. Um is it? What about um? Is it a metal object? So 10.
Speaker 1No, I'd say lower than five okay, fabric uh 40, 40, 40 um clothing 32 um, well, okay, you're not gonna fuck me hat.
Speaker 2No, I'm not fucking with you like that all right, uh hat, I would put at 12. Okay.
Speaker 1Again, this makes sense to me.
Speaker 2What about? I think we lost TJ.
Speaker 1Watching Minecraft Park oh.
Speaker 3I'm not. I'm locked in.
Speaker 2You're locked in.
Speaker 1Yes.
Speaker 2Okay.
Speaker 1He's making one of those police boards where you put the yarn between different things.
Speaker 2He's figuring it all out.
Speaker 3I'm trying All right.
Speaker 2So I liked first aid and shelter the best, but we still got to get higher and I think it was shelter. That was 41 right, or was that first aid?
Speaker 1first aid was 41. First aid was 41, shelter was 40 yeah, and I think tourniquet was 44 and so we go to but bring that back up when we get the answer. Bring tourniquet back up, because I'm curious what about blood clotting gauze 34.
Speaker 3Okay.
Speaker 2Then we go to what about a stretcher?
Speaker 1It's such a tricky item, I'm going to go 27. Okay.
Speaker 2Let me be more generic Bandages 55.
Speaker 155.
Speaker 2Okay, but not just blood clotting gauze. All gauze is low right, there's like 20 something.
Speaker 1I would put it around the same area. Yeah, okay.
Speaker 2All right, alcohol yeah.
Speaker 1Alcohol 12.
Speaker 2Okay, so it's not in the solvent. What about sutures or stitches?
Speaker 1No, like 18.
Speaker 2Okay, okay, tourniquet bandages. We've got to get higher. We're not even above the 50s yet.
Speaker 1No, bandage was 55.
Speaker 250 bandages. Oh yeah, you're not above the 50s yet. No bandage was 55, 50 band. Oh, yeah, you're not above the 50s, yeah and we're we're liking first aid better than anything else so far. Um, just so far. I know shelter was also up there, so if it could be something with dual use because I know fabric was up in the the range, it wasn't that high.
Speaker 1Um, let me see, let me see uh that answer might be subjective or limited on knowledge, but I'm pretty confident with it what about like a compression bandage, a compression sleeve? Uh, I'd put it around like 27.
Speaker 2Okay, what about Trying to go through all of the first aid and shelter items in my mind? Bandages was fairly high. How do I get up into the 90s? What about duct tape? That's it.
Speaker 1It is duct tape. It's duct tape Fucking A who guessed?
Speaker 2it.
Speaker 1Nerdy vet, nerdy vet, I think fucking hey, who guessed it?
Speaker 4nerdy vet nerdy vet.
Speaker 1I think that point should go to nerdy vet does the sticky stuff make sense? Does anytime. You said something sticky. I tried to give it a higher I'm gonna be a hundred percent. I was not there when you guys would say when you guys would say, like clothing or something, I was like, well, you could duct tape it like. That's kind of where the things that were in like the 20s and 30s were all things that I was like.
Speaker 2You could repair it with duct tape yeah, we're gonna you could kind of use duct tape as a. Uh, you could use duct tape as a yeah, I so.
Speaker 1That's why, like it was a little tricky, okay, so tourniquet, I gave it 44. Could you make a tourniquet with duct tape? Yeah, if you did it tight enough.
Speaker 2You could, but your problem with using duct tape as a tourniquet would be getting it off.
Speaker 3The whole entire.
Speaker 2Thing would be you do it so that you could get to a hospital or first aid quickly If you twist duct tape to make it into a cordage you could probably make a tourniquet with it.
Speaker 3Yeah, for sure To use it as a tightener.
Speaker 1Yeah, so I wasn't sure with that one, but I was pretty sure you could. That's good to know.
Speaker 3I was also sitting here generating AI with my. You survived the podcast till next time. Stay alive.
Speaker 1That was pretty good, all right, last one, you guys get how my brain works now, no, okay, well, good luck then. I feel like I've made a lot of sense. The only one that seemed to upset people was map.
Speaker 3Tarp, a square map, a square Map, a tarp. That was actually my brain.
Speaker 2As I brick from Anchorman. I love lamp. I love map, tarp map.
Speaker 3Forest map. I'm a simple man guys Wood make paste, make paper. I love lamp. I love map Tarp Map Forest.
Speaker 1I'm a simple man, guys.
Speaker 3Wood. Make paste, make paper.
Speaker 1Map. I don't even know about the paste, I just went wood paper. Anyways, I'm a simple man. I have your word?
Speaker 2What's your word? Yeah, paracord.
Speaker 3Ding, ding ding. What's the?
Speaker 2Items and resources.
Speaker 1It's definitely going to take a while. If you get it within the first 10, I would lose my mind. That'd be incredible.
Speaker 3Circle, 30. Triangle, 20. Square 22. Rectangle 35.
Speaker 1Oblong circle otherwise an oval yeah, I was gonna say it's a complicated way of saying that 47 ovular circle.
Speaker 3You said 47 yeah okay, I know the shape. I'm here. Here I got it. I'm locked in.
Speaker 1He's like airplane, sun Moon, earth. I'll give you it. Those are all ones.
Speaker 2Coconut.
Speaker 3It's Fuck. I'm so Dude. What's the category?
TJ Tackles Two-Way Radio
Speaker 1Items and resources. Items and resources. Items and resources. Okay, I broke them guys. Food. Uh, I'm gonna really fuck 57 egg 20.
Speaker 3That'd be crazy if it was.
Speaker 2I'd be so mad.
Speaker 3Cooking pot 18.
Speaker 1Water, oh, that's 60.
Speaker 3Life straw 20.
Speaker 1For the audio listeners, between everything he says is me heavily mulling over what I'm going to say with some head shakes, faces and uncertainty. Canteen Like right now, 43. Pan, that doesn't seem right. No, hang on, give me a second. Canteen, no 22. 22.
Speaker 2Oh, that went down.
Speaker 3That went the other way, no 22. That went down, that went the other way. Water was 47?. Yeah, that sounds right.
Speaker 2And remember it's an oblong circle.
Speaker 1You guys make the game more complicated.
Speaker 2Out of the shapes that you guessed.
Speaker 1You said a toilet, yeah. Eight Navigation Ten. You said a toilet, yeah, uh eight Navigation. Ten Trap, maybe I'll, maybe I'll give it 15, but Trap, trap, no five Fishing Wait, uh no, I'll leave trap where it was, fishing seven.
Speaker 3Hunting Seven. Hunting Seven. Three-dimensional object Uh.
Speaker 1Three-dimensional object. This is not gonna help you at all. 95.
Speaker 3Okay, so we know it's not a two-dimensional drawing like we mentioned.
Speaker 4Ha ha, ha, ha, ha, ha ha ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha ha ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha ha. Okay, so we know it's not a two-dimensional drawing.
Speaker 1Oh well, my GPS is 3D, so the map is 3D, though.
Speaker 3It's Google Earth. The Earth is an oblong circle.
Speaker 1We all know um milk milk never hurt, no 10, why is?
Speaker 3milk 10. I feel like it should be zero in some way or form it. It's fucking related by 10%.
Speaker 1You could, but I judge.
Speaker 3Plastic.
Speaker 2But that's only because if you went to go get the milk right now, you wouldn't come back.
Speaker 3Plastic 52.
Speaker 2Oh, going down it's a vibrator.
Speaker 1Ding, ding, ding. You need it for survival.
Speaker 3You can use it to boil water, I mean.
Speaker 1I know what TJ needs. It's late guys, it's after hours. We're sorry.
Speaker 3Can you give me a fucking hint?
Speaker 1I did not give Alex a hint, and it's not nearly as long as it took him, so I'm going to hold off for a bit.
Speaker 2Yeah, TJ.
Speaker 1A couple more guesses and I'll give you a hint.
Speaker 2Or you could just forfeit the point. Of course you could, but don't do that 12.
Speaker 3Entertainment no two. It's not a TV that'd be hilarious, though it's not one of those old TVs. The ovular.
Speaker 2TVs. You know, did you get a category yet? Food, water, shelter, first aid navigation communication.
Speaker 1TV would be well.
Speaker 324 yeah, water was high, so was the we know the ship.
Speaker 1Ish, I really thought you would have had it by now. Soap, or at least in the vicinity. So 38. Hygiene 37 I don't think it's shelter. 30, maybe like 20, actually communication 10, did you guess?
Speaker 2fire, fire. I don't think it's Shelter 30? Or maybe like 20, actually Communication 10.
Speaker 3Did you guess fire, fire, 10.
Speaker 1Yeah, I guessed fire, I'm pretty sure, I think I might have given a different rating earlier, but Water you already guessed that.
Speaker 3I know, I just need to hear your answer again, didn't I?
Speaker 1say like 60?, something like that? Or did I say 60? Something like that?
Speaker 2Oh, yeah, that's how you started going to cantina Forest equals map tarp equals map, tree equals map, wood equals map.
Speaker 3Is what Josh said.
Speaker 2What about a water?
Speaker 3bladder, water bladder. I'm going to say the word storage, storage 44?, 44? Boiling storage 44 boiling uh 12 bacteria.
Speaker 1I'm gonna go with 76 antibiotic ointment 98 what's the?
Speaker 3is it the fucking name brand antibiotic?
Speaker 1ointment neosporin it's not a name brand. I'll give you that it's more generic wallsporin or whatever the fuck Walgreens does.
Speaker 3You know how they always just add a wall to shit.
Speaker 1It's so stupid. No, go to the store. Can you pick me up? Some? You know how they always just add a wall to shit.
Speaker 3It's so stupid. No, yeah, go to the store. Can you pick me up some Waltussin?
Speaker 2No, it sounds disgusting the CVS brand. I hate that Our target is just up and up.
Speaker 3If you want to sponsor me Walgreens, you can.
Speaker 1That'd be great. Yeah, I'd shop at Walgreens.
Speaker 3Fuck yeah, love Walgreens. I mean not, unless you pay us, then fuck Walgreens.
Speaker 2So it'd be like an antiseptic cream.
Speaker 3An antibiotic cream.
Speaker 1Was 98.
Speaker 3Was 98. So by that logic, the clear answer it's literally so clear it's literally so clear it's so clear.
Speaker 1It's right there, you got a 98 antibiotics is that your guess antibiotics ding, ding, ding, ding ding. Okay, so a lot of that stuff. I didn't know if it qualified as antibiotics uh, I hate you.
Speaker 3Virtually none of it water and that's what I'm gonna stab you next time I see you so you're getting stabbed oblong oval antibiotic pills.
Final Round: Items and Resources
Speaker 1Okay, that are like an oblong oval, that's fine water because to take the pill. Most people don't dry swallow pills like you and me. But maybe I could have tailored that more towards you. But that's where I got water from. And then when you said, when you said, when you started saying the wounds like cut, I was like yeah, you could need antibiotics for that. And you were like gash, I'm like like sure. Then you said burn. I'm like oh, you most certainly need antibiotics for burns, yep, but then you started going down like burn cream and whatnot and I'm like I don't know if the cream itself is an antibiotic. I'm pretty sure you take antibiotics for that. And then aloe vera, I'm pretty sure is not.
Speaker 3No aloe vera? I'm pretty sure is not. No, aloe vera is just to like soothe a fucking sunburn. No, I'll tell you.
Speaker 2Well, but aloe vera does have antibiotic properties. So that's where I was, that's why I was like I don't want to give it below a 50, but I want to get you on the right track again. So same thing with antiseptic. That is an antibiotic.
Speaker 1Okay, see, yeah, it's antiseptic a little bit of that was see, I, I, I knew it was an antiseptic but I couldn't. I couldn't remember if that meant antibiotic, like if it was along the same categories, antibacterial, different antibacterial.
Speaker 2No, no, no, it's the same. That's, that's the same.
Speaker 1Yeah, antibacterial antibiotic okay, because when he said bacteria too, I was like I don't know. So yeah, uh, what'd you guys think?
Speaker 3fucking too hard oh, that is great. I love this episode.
Speaker 1This is very funny I feel like I, I just like, gave it to you guys oh yeah, you just gave it to us, right?
Speaker 2yeah, oh, yeah, you just gave it to us right.
Speaker 3Yeah, I've been watching Minecraft Parkour for the past hour and 42 minutes and dude has not missed a fucking jump. Dude, it's fucking crazy, that's the way I like it.

Speaker 2That's me.
Speaker 1I won, I'm not going to lie. That last one, the point definitely went to you, Alex, but I think the other ones, that last one you definitely took way longer than Alex, but I didn't know, I feel the other two. I am confident that Alex took longer. No, so it was, it was pretty I think the second one was neck and neck, but I do think TJ did it just slightly faster, or at least in fewer guesses. I disagree. Well, that sucks for you and it doesn't really matter.
Speaker 3TJ is our winner today. Yay, you survived the podcast till next time.
Speaker 1Stay alive but that's not the end of the episode. But that was beautiful. It's not the end of the episode um?
Speaker 3I just alex, do you?
Speaker 2have a loser speech. I think it's rigged. You motherfuckers did a handshake deal illegally.
Speaker 1I am going to launch an investigation and find out how many of these votes came in overnight, and are those going to be all appointed by you and run by you and funded by you?
Speaker 2Look, you don't worry about the process, okay, the process is the process, just the result and the results are going to? Is the process just the result, and the results are gonna make the people happy, okay, and when they don't, no, it will make the people happy.
Speaker 1If they don't like it, they could just all right, so we have a fascist over here and tj your winner's speech. I didn't know. We had the fucking presidential election here. Tj sucks.
Speaker 3TJ lost. I would like to. I would like to thank the academy and all of those who have done right by me Throughout the years. I'd like to thank my beautiful wife For loving and supporting me Through all these hard times and hardships. You know, we really pulled in on that last question.

He has. He has been our number one fan official. Um, he has, and he's the only number one fan official.
Speaker 1So yeah, well, there is number one fan official too.
Speaker 2Yeah it is true, it is true, that's true. And, and on my end, uh, in the loser's corner, I'm going to shout out uh, nerdy vet andGeorge, who were trying to help me out.
Speaker 1NerdyVet should have got one of them. He did.
Speaker 3I hereby give NerdyVet a season point. He's in the runnings now, wow.
Speaker 4Fourth place Nerdy.
Speaker 3That was a lie. You get nothing from me you don't deserve anything because I am josh I am the king of this podcast, other than eric, you know. He really pulled this oh, you're fucking.
Speaker 2It's great you're worried about, you're worried about a fascist, but you got a king over there. Look, I am a good fascist you're also bald what does that have to do with it? If you're trying to keep the bloodline strong as kings do. You can't start out bald, you gotta get bald down the line.
Speaker 1Once you've married enough cousins.
Speaker 2Wrong.
Speaker 1Hitler was not bald.
Speaker 2Wait, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Speaker 1Hitler was not bald when I started.
Speaker 2I had a whole lot of hair. Remember, I'm much older than you.

Speaker 3And if you are trapped in the woods and all you have is a tarp, do not try to read it as a map. It will not work. Thank you,
