Game Changer (2019–…): Season 3, Episode 11 - Three For the Price of One - full transcript
The sponcon crew is back to increase brand awareness and eat something gross.
- [Sam] Get ready for a "Game Changer"!
Tonight's guests, side effects
may include Mike Trapp.
- Consult your doctor!
- [Sam] Subscribe now for a
week-long free, Grant O'Brien.
- Hi, I'll take your
credit card information.

promo code Rekha Shankar.
- Or you could buy me 10 for one!
- And your host, me! I've
been here the whole time!
This...
Is...
"Game Changer", the only game show
where the game changes every show.
I am your host, Sam Reich.
I am joined today by these
three lovely contestants.
Now, you all understand
how the game works.
- [Rekha and Mike] Yes.
- At this point I do, yeah.
- Yeah, we've kind of
done this a couple times.
- Yes.
- That's right,
it's a Game Samer, a game so
nice we had to play it thrice,
this time with physical props
delivered to each of
your respective homes.
Mike Trapp!
- Oh!
- Would you do me the honor
of opening up box number one?
- Uh oh!
- Yes.
(Mike growling)
(Sam laughing)
It's taped to make you to prove
that I didn't open it before this point.
- You have until I cut you off to sell me
a candelabra bike attachment.
- Now, you're labeling what this is.
You're calling this a
candelabra bike attachment.
(Sam & Grant laughing)
Sam, let me ask you this.
Where are you from?
(Grant and Sam laughing)
- Trapp, I'm from Transylvania.
- Ah, Transylvania,
home of Dracula and other
ghoulies and beasts.
Well, so if you're from a
place like Transylvania,
which is in Romania, maybe,
what better way to get around in this era
where we're all worried
about the environment,
we're all worried about connecting
with our communities, than biking?
But you know, we've all been there.
You want to bike to the office,
you're covered in sweat.
You're wearing these
weird stretchy Lycra pants
that make you look like a goober.
Let's be honest, it's
not very sophisticated.
Wouldn't you like to add a dash
of sophistication to your bike ride?
A little taste of the feeling you get
with fine dining or
entering a beautiful mansion
and a sense of history about the place,
that's what the candelabra
bike attachment is for.
As an added benefit, you're
not gonna get hit by a car.
People are gonna see you
from a mile away and go like,
"Whoa, I need to keep my
distance from that motherfucker."
Yes, Rekha.
- When you're riding,
won't the wind from riding
blow out the candles?
- Yes, the obvious question.
- Well, Rekha, first of all,
no, that simply won't happen.
(Sam laughing)
- Oh!
- But if you're the kind
of person who is concerned
about that sort of thing, we
do sell an extra attachment
that is the candelabra
bike attachment shield
that's like a little bit of a windshield
that will block the wind from it.
I'm not selling that to you right now.
I don't believe in upselling,
I think that's rude.
- This isn't Apple,
we're not gonna sell you
a charger separately, this is Trapple.
- It's a complete package.
It's so complete it comes with the lighter
to light the thing.
- Trapp, I think that's an earnest pitch,
and so I'll give you two points.
- Thank you.
(bell rings)
- Grant.
- All right, let me open this up.
- You have until I cut you off to sell me
(Trapp laughing)
bongos with spikes.
- Sam, let me ask you a question.
It's not what you're thinking.
- Oh.
- What's the best party
you've ever been to?
- Probably just like, you
know, a friend's house,
with, like, a not
overwhelming amount of people,
good music playing.
- It was playing through a stereo, right?
You didn't have somebody sitting there
playing an acoustic guitar.
- Oh no, we just had that old
fashioned Spotify playlist
going through an iPhone.
- When you're at a party
and somebody pulls out some instruments...
- Mmm.
- All of a sudden they take over.
The whole party becomes about them.
Now, I think instruments are beautiful.
I think a guitar on the wall
makes wonderful decoration.
I think a guitar in
someone's hand is a weapon.
(Sam laughing)
It's a weapon of stealing
attention and stealing focus.
This drum set is the silencer
and we will sell it to you.
- Grant, I love that justification
for the existence of spiked bongos.
Bongos, I was gonna ask, why have bongos?
- At all?
- At all!
And then your answer was, it's decor.
- Can you play us a little something.
- Of course I can.
- No.
(drumming)
- No, stop stop stop!
(Grant groans)
- That's beautiful!
- Oh boy.
- A full three points for you,
- Grant!
- Wow!
- Mr. O'Brien.
Rekha, if you would do
me the sincere privilege
of opening up box number three.
You have until I cut you off to sell me
thong diapers.
(Mike and Grant laughing)
- Oh, and there's a sample.
(Mike, Grant and Sam laughing)
Oh, this is big.
- That's huge!
That's enormous, oh my god!
(Mike cackling)
- Okay.
Sam...
It's not what you think.
(Grant laughing)
How old are you?
- 36.
- It's not gonna stay that way.
- I seem to get older every year.
- I would argue that just
because you get older
doesn't mean you have to feel
less young and sexy.
- Hmm.
- Now, I don't know about you,
but the older people in my life I know,
they got a little pee-pee problems.
They laugh too hard, they pee pee.
- Sam.
- They cough too hard, they pee pee.
- Sam.
- That's why they make Depends and stuff,
but nobody wants to wear Depends,
nobody wants to wear the
"oops-I-crapped-my-pants"
kind of style adult diaper.
They wanna feel young,
they wanna feel hot,
they wanna feel 36 again.
Flash forward, you're 75, Sam.
Elaine goes, "Sam, can't
we go out dancing?"
And you go, "No, Elaine,
I might piss myself."
And then you stay in for the whole night,
maybe for the rest of your lives.
(imitates tape rewind)
Rewind.
Elaine goes, "Sam, let's
go out dancing tonight."
And you go, "let me suit up."
(Sam laughing)
You slip into a pair
of sexy diaper thongs.
- Rekha, stop, I'm getting too horny.
- Watch, a regular diaper can't stand up
to the amount of pee-pee
we're talking about,
but this...
(Mike, Grant and Sam laughing)
you barely saw that runoff, didn't you?
- Wow.
- That absorbs right in.
You could be leaking juice
from anywhere you want in this thing.
It's gonna absorb it right on up.
- Is it gonna absorb it right on up?
- Trapp, layer upon layer.
- Ugh!
- It's like a puff pastry of feces.
(Sam and Grant laughing)
- What, are you shitting in your pants
or is it just like a little leakage?
- A little leakage, there you go.
- If you're shitting in your
pants, I can't help you.
(Sam and Grant laughing)
You should go to the bathroom (laughs).
- I like it.
I think it's a good justification.
I will give you two points.
- Disgusting.
(dinging)
- Mr. Trapp, would you do
me the favor of opening up
box number four?
- Now I'll specify that I was told
that box number four needs to be
kept upright and refrigerated.
- Disgusting.
- I'm opening it.
Oh my God, awful.
- A hot dog smoothie.
- I see you steeling yourself,
for what you know is coming.
- Sam, if you're like me,
you're a busy man on the go,
you're cruising on your candle-lit bike
through the hills of Transylvania.
- Oh yeah.
- You don't always have time
to prepare yourself a meal.
You know, smoothies and Soylent,
the sort of Slim-Fast meal substitutes.
- Oh sure.
- It's always like fruit and greens.
- Mmm.
- If you like the meat, fellas,
you know what I'm talking about.
- Oh, I like the meat.
- Rekha?
- No.
- You're gonna want that fast, easy meal
you can drink on your bike
that also gives you the delicious flavor,
the all-American flavor of hot dog.
- Mmm.
- Yes, Grant.
- (laughing) Would you take a sip?
- Of course I would.
Grant, I believe in the hotdog smoothie.
I believe in it like I believe in America.
Sure, it's gone through some lumps,
it's had some hard times,
(Rekha coughing)
but I think in the end, America-
this is really turned on tight.
I'm desperately trying to open this
(Grant and Sam laughing)
without spilling hotdog
smoothie everywhere.
(Rekha laughing)
There we go.
The promise
of a hotdog smoothie.
(Grant growls)
- Ooh! (chuckles) I don't know.
- Two whole wieners in there.
It's like a tea to make sure
that you get the fresh, delicious taste
of hot dog in every sip.
- The hot dogs are not ground up into it,
they're placed?
- Some of them are,
but it's like when you
would put a pineapple
on a pina colada glass
or a delicious pickle on a Bloody Mary.
It's the fine delicious taste.
(Grant growls)
of hot dog.
(Grant and Sam laughing, shrieking)
It's thick, it's creamy,
it's the saltiest thing
you've ever tasted.
(Grant, Rekha and Sam laughing)
I'm flashing back now to summer days
in the backyard, grilling
on the 4th of July.
I'm watching the baseball game
and just in a sip you can,
(Sam and Grant groan)
(Rekha screams)
as the hotdog gently
slides against your lips.
That is the flavor of summer,
that is the flavor of America.
- A full three points for you.
(dings)
- That brings us back to Mr. O'Brien.
- Yes, sir.
- Grant, will you open up
box number five?
- I will.
- You have until I cut you off to sell me
a "Friends" DVD, but it's just
the credits sequences.
(Rekha laughing)
- I'm going to be very earnest.
One of my favorite parts about "Friends"
is the credit sequences
and I'm not kidding.
They're sketch comedy really.
They are usually outside of the story,
or at the very least, you know,
like a third beat on the B plot.
It doesn't have any of the, like, drama
that I don't actually
care about on "Friends".
They're short, they're to the point.
They're why the cutaways
on "Family Guy" works.
Now I see a lot of hands raised.
(Mike laughing)
- Is this not just the text
or is it the joke that it
ends on with the text over it?
- I think that Grant has
actually, like, caught me here
in a technicality that
makes his pitch better,
which is in my mind, of course,
this was merely credits
but the credits sequences
of "Friends" are codas
and are jokes and because
Grant is familiar enough
with "Friends", the series to know that
and actually enjoys them,
this is a very good sell.
- I guess I wonder if your focus on
the sharp jokes at the end
is taking too much credit
away from the assistant
editors and the gaffers.
- That's true.
- And you seem to be...
I think, giving them a short shrift.
- Hey, Trapp.
- Yeah.
- Fuck 'em.
(Sam and Mike laughing)
- Whoa!
- If they wanted to work in show business,
they should have been hot
enough to be on camera.
- Interesting.
We've stopped recording and
my entire crew has quit.
- Wow.
(Rekha laughing)
- I guess I have another
follow up question, Grant.
- Yeah, what do you got?
- Do you think that this
will run into any issues
with the fact that it's a DVD
and almost no one has
a DVD player anymore?
(Sam laughing)
- No.
- I will give you two points, Grant.
Good job catching me
(dings)
on the technicality.
Rekha, I think that's with
you for box number six.
- Yes.
- A pun dictionary.
- Now, Sam...
Let me ask you something.
- Don't do it.
- What's your favorite
party you've ever been to?
- Ooh, good question.
- I think, you know, my favorite parties
are kind of low key, maybe
a dozen people hanging out,
listening to music.
- You strike me as someone who's unpopular
at parties currently, yeah?
(all laughing)
- Unfortunately, not untrue.
- Introducing The Complete
English Dictionary of Puns.
Whereas you cannot judge
a book by its cover,
we can judge our friends by their covers
and your cover is all wrong, Sam.
You've got boring guy
written all over you.
I want to give you the
prowess of a wordsmith, okay?
So give me any word that you
think you might find in here.
- Well, I guess there's a
lot of alcoholic parties,
so why not you know, booze?
- Yeas or boos, Sam.
Which do you want people
to shout at you at a party?
'Cause right now you're getting
all sorts of boos and not the fun kind.
Let's say you're heading
over to the snack table.
You see a little platter
of little Italian pastries.
Wow, what a fancy party!
And you go "A platter of Italian pastries.
"This can only be a party catered by you."
The host is laughing with joy.
They're going, "I thought Sam sucked,"
and yes, other person
goes, "No, Sam is cool."
Apply yourself to this tome.
Your new table of contents says,
"Cool Guy", "Awesome Guy", "Fun Guy".
(Mike, Sam and Grant laughing)
- Well done, Rekha.
Harshly personalized, but not wrong.
(all laughing)
I will give you two points
for that performance
which means...
It's time for our first mini game,
the points headed into our mini game are
Trapp with five, Grant with
five and Rekha with four.
Players, it's time for logos.
This time, a twist on our usual format.
These are shameful logos,
logos that you really shouldn't know.
- Oh no.
- Players, what do you
think about this logo?
- That's Rekha first.
(buzzing)
- You cannot use that, Sam.
That's the Reddit logo.
- (dings) That is indeed the Reddit logo.
Well done, Rekha.
Players, what do you
think about this logo?
Rekha again.
- You can't use that logo, Sam.
That's Harry Potter.
- It is indeed Harry Potter.
Remember when it was simple
to be a Harry Potter fan?
- Yes.
(Grant laughing)
- Players, what do you
think about this logo?
That's Trapp.
(buzzing)
- You can't use that, Sam.
That's Postmates.
And that guy needs a little
candelabra on his bike too.
(Sam and Rekha laughing)
- I knew something was wrong with that
as I was putting the little
cape on my suited self.
Players, what do you
think about this logo?
(buzz)
Rekha.
- You can't use that
logo because it's NASCAR.
- It is NASCAR!
(dings)
Well done, Rekha.
Players, what do you think
(ding)
about this logo?
That was Trapp.
(buzz)
- Sam, you can't use that one.
It's too close to the Bravo TV logo.
It is too close
(dinging)
to the Bravo TV logo.
Well done, Trapp.
Players, what do you think
about this logo?
(dinging)
(buzzing)
That was Rekha
- I'm sorry, you can't use that
because that's the
Strawberry Pop Tarts logo.
(Rekha laughs)
(dings)
- That is the Strawberry Pop Tarts logo.
Players, what do you think
this logo could possibly be?
(dings)
(buzzes)
That was Grant.
- Ah, shit!
- You can't use that logo, Sam.
That's too close to the
"Goosebumps" by R.L. Stein logo.
- No.
- It is not "Goosebumps"
by R.L. Stein, Grant.
- I am furious.
- Rekha.
- You can't get that, it's too close
to the "Rick and Morty" logo.
- [Sam, Grant and Trapp] Yeah.
- It is too close to "Rick and Morty".
- Okay, Rick and Morty,
you can't use that logo.
That's too close to the "Goosebumps"
by R.L. Stein logo.
(Rekha, Sam and Trap laughing)
- Honestly, yes.
- Players, what do you think
about this logo?
(dings)
(buzzes)
Trapp, again.
- That is too close to the Marlboro logo?
- That is correct.
It is too close to...
(dinging)
- To the smooth smoky taste of Marlboro.
- Oh (laughing), no no no no no.
- Yeah. No one feels like
riding the horse to Montana
like a lung full of Marlboro.
- Players, what do you think about
this logo?
(dings)
(buzzes)
That's Grant.
- You can't use that, Sam.
That's too close to the PornHub logo.
- Of all the ones for you to get Grant.
(dings)
- by R.L. Stein.
(all laughing)
- Very on brand.
Players, what do you think
about this logo?
(dings)
(buzzes)
Rekha.
- You shouldn't use that, Sam.
- Oh shit.
That's the Joe Rogan show logo.
(Grant and Sam laughing)
(dings)
- Wait, that's not the title.
- It's the "Joe Rogan Experience"
technically, Rekha.
- It's more than a podcast.
- I think I should get a point
because I don't listen to this shit.
- Neither do I.
(all laughing)
- And Trapp is fucking obsessed with it.
- Always going on.
- They get like some
interesting thinkers on there.
(Rekha laughing)
Players, what do you think
(dinging)
about this logo?
(buzzing)
Trapp.
- Sam, you can't use that.
That's too close to the 4chan logo.
- It is too close
(dinging)
to the 4chan logo, Trapp.
What do you think
(dinging)
about this logo?
(buzzing)
- Ah, shit.
- Rekha.
- You can't use this logo.
This is the logo for the
best streaming service
on Earth, called "Dropout".
(all laughing)
- This isn't a logo for HBO Max.
- You can 100% use that logo.
- I can, I can.
Well done to all three of our players.
- When the Marlboro logo was up there,
I thought I'd do a fun visual joke
and exhale a bunch of smoke
and the moment kind of passed
and I didn't, the joke didn't really land
and the only thing I had
to smoke was a weed vape,
so I also got a little stoned so--
- Your reflexes were a little off.
- So, now I'm a little
behind the eight ball.
- I can't believe, mid-episode,
you got a little stoned.
(all laughing)
(lively beats)
Crazy.
- The scores headed into round two are
Trapp with nine, Grant
with six, Rekha with 11.
Players, you know the rigmarole.
I show you stock footage,
you give me commercial VO
over that stock footage,
turning it from B-roll into
a capital A advertisement.
- Now, I'm the best at this.
(Sam laughing)
- Oh my God, Grant.
- Trapp, we'll start with you.
Three, two, one.
- Birthdays. They seem to come every year.
They just never stop coming.
So why not enjoy it for once in your life?
Get rid of those sad
feelings of growing old.
Enjoy your birthday,
enjoy the happiness,
enjoy family
with...
hugs.
Yes, hugs.
(Rekha giggling)
For too long have hugs
been given away for free.
Weird, crappy hugs.
You never know if they're gonna be
tight enough or weirdly limp,
but with Johnson and Johnson-brand Hugs,
these are the finest hugs,
carefully curated, handcrafted hugs.
The perfect level of tightness,
the perfect amount of holding,
the perfect hug for you
and your loved ones.
Johnson and Johnson Hugs,
hold on tight.
- Wow.
- Well done.
I like the tagline.
A little unclear how a
Johnson and Johnson Hug
might be distributed.
- Listen, I'm not a supply
chain guy, all right?
I'm just the ideas guy here, all right?
- We'll say two points for you
(dinging)
Grant, can we have a quick
word before we begin?
- Sure. Of course.
Last time, you threw
this game with silly VO
that was in no way an
actual advertisement.
- I don't think I actually understood
what I was doing last time.
I was kind of like the
voice of the characters
rather than a VO.
So that was my mistake and I do apologize.
- Okay, here we go.
- Oh my God, a sweater.
Oh my God, a sweater.
I think my biceps look good.
I don't? I'm your friend.
Wait a minute, we're cheerleaders.
Hey, if I'm gonna bend over
'cause I'm a cheerleader,
to do a little cheer for everybody.
It's going to be, it's going to look good
'cause I'm gonna do it fancy.
Dove soap has really got the thing
to make sure I can be
picked up by everybody.
Yeah, I'm really excited
to be picked up too
because I'm so clean.
Woo, I'm gonna do some squats.
(Sam sighing)
- I hope that was okay, Sam.
I wanna play the game right.
- That's 1 point for Grant.
- Rekha, it's your go.
Three, two, one and action.
- Pfft, lines.
Lines at the grocery
store can get you down,
feeling like it's just
too crowded in there.
Maybe there's not not enough space for-
Ugh! Bump! Ow! Ugh!
God, too many people, right?
Well, rest assured that at
the Farmer's Market
version of Stop and Shop,
(Sam and Trap laughing)
those crowds are gonna be big
food lovers, just like you.
No more just sorting
through crappy produce
with hundreds of other people, no.
At the Farmer's Market
Version of Stop and Shop,
we have the most artisanal versions
of everything we have at Stop and Shop.
Yeah, those oranges,
they're not artificially
inflated to be giant.
Take a selfie at our farmer's stand
and waft through our perfume aisle
with handmade perfumes
(all laughing)
from our artisanal soap makers.
Farmer's Market Stop and Shop
for the shopper that cares.
- So an improvement on
the normal Stop and Shop.
- Yeah, it's Stop and Shop Plus.
(all laughing)
- Yeah, Rekha, I'll take it.
Sure. Two points for you
bringing us back to Trapp.
This is about to get kind of surreal.
- Okay.
Three, two, one.
(gentle music)
- Smoke, from the dawn of
time, man has feared smoke.
For where there is smoke, there is fire.
Billions of dollars have been wasted
on the smoking industry.
Lies, lies that they feed our children,
lies that they feed addicts.
A thousand cigarettes
cascading down a mountain
of wastes and fury and unhealthfulness.
Give up smoking today.
- Wow!
Trapp!
Pretty impressive.
Quickly turning that
imagery into something--
- This isn't that far from the truth.
No, Grant, no, stop.
(Sam laughing)
Stop. You have to turn away from smoke.
- Trapp, I will award you
three points for that
(Rekha gasping)
(dinging)
impressive display.
(Rekha and Grant clapping)
- Now Grant, this would be
the moment to turn again
and give me something really impressive.
- Sure. I need the points.
- Three, two, one.
- I've got eyes.
I can't see out of them very well
and I sure would like a pair of glasses
because I've got earrings,
but nothing to see out of.
Boy, if I wasn't so
blind, I'd be able to see
that I wasn't in the
middle of a big, gray void.
I sure would love some
Warby Parker glasses.
(all laughing)
(Grant talking indistinctly)
I want to be able to see
the background, wee hoo!.
Whoa! (melodic "boom's")
My eyes.
(Rekha sighing)
- I'm just imagining
being now cut to Grant,
like John Hammond "Mad
Men" sitting in a boardroom
with the Warby Parker executives.
- They all stand up
and clap one at a time.
You know, Grant.
That was a little bit more the
direction I was looking for.
- Really?
- But, it's still only one
point for you (laughing).
(dinging)
Rekha, three, two, one.
- 2020 has made you feel lost.
Like you don't have anywhere to turn.
Like there's maybe a light
at the end of the tunnel,
but you're not sure.
If you feel like you've been wandering
through the endless labyrinth
that has been this year,
try Zoloft.
(Grant and Trap laughing)
The only prescription
antidepressant medication
can help be the lantern in your,
the labyrinth maze of your mind.
It can help eliminate the dark streets
of anxiety, terror and depression.
Zoloft, let it be our light.
- Rekha, super impressive.
And speaking on behalf of someone
on a new anxiety
medication, it is the best.
(Rekha laughing)
- That was a little off character for me.
I'm a Lexapro girl.
- Yeah. I think the full
three points to you too.
You know, this is a close game.
Unfortunately, not
particularly close with Grant.
That being said,
we do have a long taglines
game coming up next.
And Grant typically does very well
in this particular game.
- That's true.
- Sam, I do well in
every part of the game.
(all laughing)
- Points headed into our final round are
Grant with eight, Trapp
with 14, Rekha with 16.
The game once again, players, is taglines
and if that sounds familiar,
well, look it's hard with
every episode of "Game Changer"
to think different.
(buzzing)
- Apple.
- Grant.
- Excuse me, I was buzzed
in first and it is Apple.
- Shit!
(dinging)
(Sam and Trapp laughing)
- I forgot that's how the game started.
- All alone, in my home
during the pandemic
with the rest of the company to run
trying to come up with
games that we can do
over video conference,
I can sometimes feel my brain
beginning to snap, crackle--
(buzzing)
- That was Grant.
- Rice Krispies Treats.
Rice Krispies, Rice Krispies.
I said Rice Krispies
before I said "treats"
and that's true.
And that's a fact.
- (laughs) I'll give it
to you, Grant. (dinging)
You know, I take long walks
through the neighborhood
to come up with ideas.
You know, I bring my notepad with me
because I gotta catch them all.
(buzzing)
That was Rekha.
- That's Pokemon.
(Sam laughing)
(dinging)
- When you get really focused,
you develop this, like, it's so funny.
It's like, you're so tense
but you could not be less
interested in what you're saying.
- Well, it's very funny
for the viewer at home.
We're all looking at our phones
'cause that's how we buzz in,
but I'm sure it looks like
we're all just so distracted.
- Uh it's Pokemon.
- It is Pokemon.
That's a point for you.
You know, more recently though,
we started to do these, the "Game Samers"
and I mean, "Game Samers"
have saved my life.
They're easy, breezy, beautiful.
(buzzing)
That's Trapp.
- CoverGirl?
- That is correct.
(dinging)
- Breaking a new episode of "Game Changer"
can take me all day, but
writing this "Taglines" bit,
it just took me like 15 minutes.
(buzzing)
Rekha.
- 15 minutes you can save with Geico.
- (laughs) That's correct.
(dinging)
- Is that the tagline?
- Is that the tagline?
- With 15 minutes you can save
more on your car insurance with Geico.
(all laugh)
It sounded right.
- Now, I realized I might be putting
too much pressure on myself.
You know the goal with this series,
it's not to be original necessarily,
it's just to be entertaining, right?
I mean, that's the
ultimate driving machine.
- Hmm.
(buzzing)
- Grant.
- Mercedes-Benz is the
thing that you said.
- Not Mercedes-Benz.
- No Grant, it's BMW.
- It is BMW.
(dinging)
Now, I'll admit it.
Some Game Changer episodes
are better than others.
I don't plan on repeating
the underbaked episodes.
No, no, just the ones that
are finger licking' good.
(buzzing)
Trapp.
- You're talking about KFC.
- I am talking about KFC.
- Chicken bias.
(dinging)
- You know, an okay game can dry up fast,
but a good game is good
till the last drop.
(buzzing)
Grant.
- Fol-, Maxwell House or
Folgers, it's one of those.
Folgers.
- No Grant.
(buzzing)
- Oh Goddamn it.
- Trapp.
- Is that Maxwell House?
- (laughing) It is Maxwell House.
- Grant.
(Grant growling)
- Oh no.
- Thank you, Grant.
I was actually going to say Folgers.
- (laughing) This is going great.
- An okay game loses its sheen over time,
but a diamond is forever.
(buzzing)
Grant.
(Trapp laughing)
- I know that's in my head somewhere.
A diamond is forever.
De Beers?
- It is De Beers.
(Rekha cheering)
(Grant groaning)
- Sure, I get it.
The episode you're watching
has all familiar components
you know, lettuce, tomato, veggie burger
and at some point you'll want
me to think outside the bun.
(buzzing)
Trapp.
- You're talking about Taco Bell.
- I am indeed.
(dinging)
That's a point for Trapp.
You're thirsty for original episodes too
and I want to obey your thirst.
(buzzing)
Grant.
- Mountain Dew.
- No, Grant.
(buzzing)
- Oh God.
- Rekha.
- Sprite?
- Sprite it is.
- Oh, that's so bad.
(dinging)
- I'll still do those episodes
and "Game Samers" and stuff in between
and as we do more of the
show, it'll turn into
a proper multicolor
spectrum of episode types
and I am hoping that
you'll taste the rainbow.
(buzzing)
Rekha.
- Skittles.
- Skittles is correct.
That does it for this game.
(dinging)
The scores at the end of our episode are
Grant with 10, Rekha with
20 and Trapp with 20.
(Rekha screaming)
We have a tie.
- I'm gonna ask each of you
to pick something off the winner menu.
- [Trapp] Mmm.
- There's a right answer to this.
- Wait what is it?
(Trapp laughing)
- The acupressure mat.
- What are you talking about?
- Don't you want to lay down
and get some acupressure?
- What?
(Sam laughing)
- Let's do that Goldbelly.
- What's it gonna be for you, Rekha?
- I think I'm gonna do $100
in Goldbelly (laughing).
(Trapp laughing)
- I am sorry, Grant.
You're gonna have to pick
something off of the loser menu.
- Oh boy.
What do I take?
I'll take a sincere compliment.
You have a staggering ability
to make people feel comfortable,
perhaps more than like
98% of people I meet.
You put people at ease
with your mere presence
because you are so warm and so kind.
- Thank you.
You know what?
That's so much better
than an acupressure mat.
- That does it for us
here at Game Changer.

been here the whole time!
This...
Is...
"Game Changer", the only game show
where the game changes every show.
I am your host, Sam Reich.
I am joined today by these
three lovely contestants.
Now, you all understand
how the game works.
- [Rekha and Mike] Yes.
- At this point I do, yeah.
- Yeah, we've kind of
done this a couple times.
- Yes.
- That's right,
it's a Game Samer, a game so
nice we had to play it thrice,
this time with physical props
delivered to each of
your respective homes.
Mike Trapp!
- Oh!
- Would you do me the honor
of opening up box number one?
- Uh oh!
- Yes.
(Mike growling)
(Sam laughing)
It's taped to make you to prove
that I didn't open it before this point.
- You have until I cut you off to sell me
a candelabra bike attachment.
- Now, you're labeling what this is.
You're calling this a
candelabra bike attachment.
(Sam & Grant laughing)
Sam, let me ask you this.
Where are you from?
(Grant and Sam laughing)
- Trapp, I'm from Transylvania.
- Ah, Transylvania,
home of Dracula and other
ghoulies and beasts.
Well, so if you're from a
place like Transylvania,
which is in Romania, maybe,
what better way to get around in this era
where we're all worried
about the environment,
we're all worried about connecting
with our communities, than biking?
But you know, we've all been there.
You want to bike to the office,
you're covered in sweat.
You're wearing these
weird stretchy Lycra pants
that make you look like a goober.
Let's be honest, it's
not very sophisticated.
Wouldn't you like to add a dash
of sophistication to your bike ride?
A little taste of the feeling you get
with fine dining or
entering a beautiful mansion
and a sense of history about the place,
that's what the candelabra
bike attachment is for.
As an added benefit, you're
not gonna get hit by a car.
People are gonna see you
from a mile away and go like,
"Whoa, I need to keep my
distance from that motherfucker."
Yes, Rekha.
- When you're riding,
won't the wind from riding
blow out the candles?
- Yes, the obvious question.
- Well, Rekha, first of all,
no, that simply won't happen.
(Sam laughing)
- Oh!
- But if you're the kind
of person who is concerned
about that sort of thing, we
do sell an extra attachment
that is the candelabra
bike attachment shield
that's like a little bit of a windshield
that will block the wind from it.
I'm not selling that to you right now.
I don't believe in upselling,
I think that's rude.
- This isn't Apple,
we're not gonna sell you
a charger separately, this is Trapple.
- It's a complete package.
It's so complete it comes with the lighter
to light the thing.
- Trapp, I think that's an earnest pitch,
and so I'll give you two points.
- Thank you.
(bell rings)
- Grant.
- All right, let me open this up.
- You have until I cut you off to sell me
(Trapp laughing)
bongos with spikes.
- Sam, let me ask you a question.
It's not what you're thinking.
- Oh.
- What's the best party
you've ever been to?
- Probably just like, you
know, a friend's house,
with, like, a not
overwhelming amount of people,
good music playing.
- It was playing through a stereo, right?
You didn't have somebody sitting there
playing an acoustic guitar.
- Oh no, we just had that old
fashioned Spotify playlist
going through an iPhone.
- When you're at a party
and somebody pulls out some instruments...
- Mmm.
- All of a sudden they take over.
The whole party becomes about them.
Now, I think instruments are beautiful.
I think a guitar on the wall
makes wonderful decoration.
I think a guitar in
someone's hand is a weapon.
(Sam laughing)
It's a weapon of stealing
attention and stealing focus.
This drum set is the silencer
and we will sell it to you.
- Grant, I love that justification
for the existence of spiked bongos.
Bongos, I was gonna ask, why have bongos?
- At all?
- At all!
And then your answer was, it's decor.
- Can you play us a little something.
- Of course I can.
- No.
(drumming)
- No, stop stop stop!
(Grant groans)
- That's beautiful!
- Oh boy.
- A full three points for you,
- Grant!
- Wow!
- Mr. O'Brien.
Rekha, if you would do
me the sincere privilege
of opening up box number three.
You have until I cut you off to sell me
thong diapers.
(Mike and Grant laughing)
- Oh, and there's a sample.
(Mike, Grant and Sam laughing)
Oh, this is big.
- That's huge!
That's enormous, oh my god!
(Mike cackling)
- Okay.
Sam...
It's not what you think.
(Grant laughing)
How old are you?
- 36.
- It's not gonna stay that way.
- I seem to get older every year.
- I would argue that just
because you get older
doesn't mean you have to feel
less young and sexy.
- Hmm.
- Now, I don't know about you,
but the older people in my life I know,
they got a little pee-pee problems.
They laugh too hard, they pee pee.
- Sam.
- They cough too hard, they pee pee.
- Sam.
- That's why they make Depends and stuff,
but nobody wants to wear Depends,
nobody wants to wear the
"oops-I-crapped-my-pants"
kind of style adult diaper.
They wanna feel young,
they wanna feel hot,
they wanna feel 36 again.
Flash forward, you're 75, Sam.
Elaine goes, "Sam, can't
we go out dancing?"
And you go, "No, Elaine,
I might piss myself."
And then you stay in for the whole night,
maybe for the rest of your lives.
(imitates tape rewind)
Rewind.
Elaine goes, "Sam, let's
go out dancing tonight."
And you go, "let me suit up."
(Sam laughing)
You slip into a pair
of sexy diaper thongs.
- Rekha, stop, I'm getting too horny.
- Watch, a regular diaper can't stand up
to the amount of pee-pee
we're talking about,
but this...
(Mike, Grant and Sam laughing)
you barely saw that runoff, didn't you?
- Wow.
- That absorbs right in.
You could be leaking juice
from anywhere you want in this thing.
It's gonna absorb it right on up.
- Is it gonna absorb it right on up?
- Trapp, layer upon layer.
- Ugh!
- It's like a puff pastry of feces.
(Sam and Grant laughing)
- What, are you shitting in your pants
or is it just like a little leakage?
- A little leakage, there you go.
- If you're shitting in your
pants, I can't help you.
(Sam and Grant laughing)
You should go to the bathroom (laughs).
- I like it.
I think it's a good justification.
I will give you two points.
- Disgusting.
(dinging)
- Mr. Trapp, would you do
me the favor of opening up
box number four?
- Now I'll specify that I was told
that box number four needs to be
kept upright and refrigerated.
- Disgusting.
- I'm opening it.
Oh my God, awful.
- A hot dog smoothie.
- I see you steeling yourself,
for what you know is coming.
- Sam, if you're like me,
you're a busy man on the go,
you're cruising on your candle-lit bike
through the hills of Transylvania.
- Oh yeah.
- You don't always have time
to prepare yourself a meal.
You know, smoothies and Soylent,
the sort of Slim-Fast meal substitutes.
- Oh sure.
- It's always like fruit and greens.
- Mmm.
- If you like the meat, fellas,
you know what I'm talking about.
- Oh, I like the meat.
- Rekha?
- No.
- You're gonna want that fast, easy meal
you can drink on your bike
that also gives you the delicious flavor,
the all-American flavor of hot dog.
- Mmm.
- Yes, Grant.
- (laughing) Would you take a sip?
- Of course I would.
Grant, I believe in the hotdog smoothie.
I believe in it like I believe in America.
Sure, it's gone through some lumps,
it's had some hard times,
(Rekha coughing)
but I think in the end, America-
this is really turned on tight.
I'm desperately trying to open this
(Grant and Sam laughing)
without spilling hotdog
smoothie everywhere.
(Rekha laughing)
There we go.
The promise
of a hotdog smoothie.
(Grant growls)
- Ooh! (chuckles) I don't know.
- Two whole wieners in there.
It's like a tea to make sure
that you get the fresh, delicious taste
of hot dog in every sip.
- The hot dogs are not ground up into it,
they're placed?
- Some of them are,
but it's like when you
would put a pineapple
on a pina colada glass
or a delicious pickle on a Bloody Mary.
It's the fine delicious taste.
(Grant growls)
of hot dog.
(Grant and Sam laughing, shrieking)
It's thick, it's creamy,
it's the saltiest thing
you've ever tasted.
(Grant, Rekha and Sam laughing)
I'm flashing back now to summer days
in the backyard, grilling
on the 4th of July.
I'm watching the baseball game
and just in a sip you can,
(Sam and Grant groan)
(Rekha screams)
as the hotdog gently
slides against your lips.
That is the flavor of summer,
that is the flavor of America.
- A full three points for you.
(dings)
- That brings us back to Mr. O'Brien.
- Yes, sir.
- Grant, will you open up
box number five?
- I will.
- You have until I cut you off to sell me
a "Friends" DVD, but it's just
the credits sequences.
(Rekha laughing)
- I'm going to be very earnest.
One of my favorite parts about "Friends"
is the credit sequences
and I'm not kidding.
They're sketch comedy really.
They are usually outside of the story,
or at the very least, you know,
like a third beat on the B plot.
It doesn't have any of the, like, drama
that I don't actually
care about on "Friends".
They're short, they're to the point.
They're why the cutaways
on "Family Guy" works.
Now I see a lot of hands raised.
(Mike laughing)
- Is this not just the text
or is it the joke that it
ends on with the text over it?
- I think that Grant has
actually, like, caught me here
in a technicality that
makes his pitch better,
which is in my mind, of course,
this was merely credits
but the credits sequences
of "Friends" are codas
and are jokes and because
Grant is familiar enough
with "Friends", the series to know that
and actually enjoys them,
this is a very good sell.
- I guess I wonder if your focus on
the sharp jokes at the end
is taking too much credit
away from the assistant
editors and the gaffers.
- That's true.
- And you seem to be...
I think, giving them a short shrift.
- Hey, Trapp.
- Yeah.
- Fuck 'em.
(Sam and Mike laughing)
- Whoa!
- If they wanted to work in show business,
they should have been hot
enough to be on camera.
- Interesting.
We've stopped recording and
my entire crew has quit.
- Wow.
(Rekha laughing)
- I guess I have another
follow up question, Grant.
- Yeah, what do you got?
- Do you think that this
will run into any issues
with the fact that it's a DVD
and almost no one has
a DVD player anymore?
(Sam laughing)
- No.
- I will give you two points, Grant.
Good job catching me
(dings)
on the technicality.
Rekha, I think that's with
you for box number six.
- Yes.
- A pun dictionary.
- Now, Sam...
Let me ask you something.
- Don't do it.
- What's your favorite
party you've ever been to?
- Ooh, good question.
- I think, you know, my favorite parties
are kind of low key, maybe
a dozen people hanging out,
listening to music.
- You strike me as someone who's unpopular
at parties currently, yeah?
(all laughing)
- Unfortunately, not untrue.
- Introducing The Complete
English Dictionary of Puns.
Whereas you cannot judge
a book by its cover,
we can judge our friends by their covers
and your cover is all wrong, Sam.
You've got boring guy
written all over you.
I want to give you the
prowess of a wordsmith, okay?
So give me any word that you
think you might find in here.
- Well, I guess there's a
lot of alcoholic parties,
so why not you know, booze?
- Yeas or boos, Sam.
Which do you want people
to shout at you at a party?
'Cause right now you're getting
all sorts of boos and not the fun kind.
Let's say you're heading
over to the snack table.
You see a little platter
of little Italian pastries.
Wow, what a fancy party!
And you go "A platter of Italian pastries.
"This can only be a party catered by you."
The host is laughing with joy.
They're going, "I thought Sam sucked,"
and yes, other person
goes, "No, Sam is cool."
Apply yourself to this tome.
Your new table of contents says,
"Cool Guy", "Awesome Guy", "Fun Guy".
(Mike, Sam and Grant laughing)
- Well done, Rekha.
Harshly personalized, but not wrong.
(all laughing)
I will give you two points
for that performance
which means...
It's time for our first mini game,
the points headed into our mini game are
Trapp with five, Grant with
five and Rekha with four.
Players, it's time for logos.
This time, a twist on our usual format.
These are shameful logos,
logos that you really shouldn't know.
- Oh no.
- Players, what do you
think about this logo?
- That's Rekha first.
(buzzing)
- You cannot use that, Sam.
That's the Reddit logo.
- (dings) That is indeed the Reddit logo.
Well done, Rekha.
Players, what do you
think about this logo?
Rekha again.
- You can't use that logo, Sam.
That's Harry Potter.
- It is indeed Harry Potter.
Remember when it was simple
to be a Harry Potter fan?
- Yes.
(Grant laughing)
- Players, what do you
think about this logo?
That's Trapp.
(buzzing)
- You can't use that, Sam.
That's Postmates.
And that guy needs a little
candelabra on his bike too.
(Sam and Rekha laughing)
- I knew something was wrong with that
as I was putting the little
cape on my suited self.
Players, what do you
think about this logo?
(buzz)
Rekha.
- You can't use that
logo because it's NASCAR.
- It is NASCAR!
(dings)
Well done, Rekha.
Players, what do you think
(ding)
about this logo?
That was Trapp.
(buzz)
- Sam, you can't use that one.
It's too close to the Bravo TV logo.
It is too close
(dinging)
to the Bravo TV logo.
Well done, Trapp.
Players, what do you think
about this logo?
(dinging)
(buzzing)
That was Rekha
- I'm sorry, you can't use that
because that's the
Strawberry Pop Tarts logo.
(Rekha laughs)
(dings)
- That is the Strawberry Pop Tarts logo.
Players, what do you think
this logo could possibly be?
(dings)
(buzzes)
That was Grant.
- Ah, shit!
- You can't use that logo, Sam.
That's too close to the
"Goosebumps" by R.L. Stein logo.
- No.
- It is not "Goosebumps"
by R.L. Stein, Grant.
- I am furious.
- Rekha.
- You can't get that, it's too close
to the "Rick and Morty" logo.
- [Sam, Grant and Trapp] Yeah.
- It is too close to "Rick and Morty".
- Okay, Rick and Morty,
you can't use that logo.
That's too close to the "Goosebumps"
by R.L. Stein logo.
(Rekha, Sam and Trap laughing)
- Honestly, yes.
- Players, what do you think
about this logo?
(dings)
(buzzes)
Trapp, again.
- That is too close to the Marlboro logo?
- That is correct.
It is too close to...
(dinging)
- To the smooth smoky taste of Marlboro.
- Oh (laughing), no no no no no.
- Yeah. No one feels like
riding the horse to Montana
like a lung full of Marlboro.
- Players, what do you think about
this logo?
(dings)
(buzzes)
That's Grant.
- You can't use that, Sam.
That's too close to the PornHub logo.
- Of all the ones for you to get Grant.
(dings)
- by R.L. Stein.
(all laughing)
- Very on brand.
Players, what do you think
about this logo?
(dings)
(buzzes)
Rekha.
- You shouldn't use that, Sam.
- Oh shit.
That's the Joe Rogan show logo.
(Grant and Sam laughing)
(dings)
- Wait, that's not the title.
- It's the "Joe Rogan Experience"
technically, Rekha.
- It's more than a podcast.
- I think I should get a point
because I don't listen to this shit.
- Neither do I.
(all laughing)
- And Trapp is fucking obsessed with it.
- Always going on.
- They get like some
interesting thinkers on there.
(Rekha laughing)
Players, what do you think
(dinging)
about this logo?
(buzzing)
Trapp.
- Sam, you can't use that.
That's too close to the 4chan logo.
- It is too close
(dinging)
to the 4chan logo, Trapp.
What do you think
(dinging)
about this logo?
(buzzing)
- Ah, shit.
- Rekha.
- You can't use this logo.
This is the logo for the
best streaming service
on Earth, called "Dropout".
(all laughing)
- This isn't a logo for HBO Max.
- You can 100% use that logo.
- I can, I can.
Well done to all three of our players.
- When the Marlboro logo was up there,
I thought I'd do a fun visual joke
and exhale a bunch of smoke
and the moment kind of passed
and I didn't, the joke didn't really land
and the only thing I had
to smoke was a weed vape,
so I also got a little stoned so--
- Your reflexes were a little off.
- So, now I'm a little
behind the eight ball.
- I can't believe, mid-episode,
you got a little stoned.
(all laughing)
(lively beats)
Crazy.
- The scores headed into round two are
Trapp with nine, Grant
with six, Rekha with 11.
Players, you know the rigmarole.
I show you stock footage,
you give me commercial VO
over that stock footage,
turning it from B-roll into
a capital A advertisement.
- Now, I'm the best at this.
(Sam laughing)
- Oh my God, Grant.
- Trapp, we'll start with you.
Three, two, one.
- Birthdays. They seem to come every year.
They just never stop coming.
So why not enjoy it for once in your life?
Get rid of those sad
feelings of growing old.
Enjoy your birthday,
enjoy the happiness,
enjoy family
with...
hugs.
Yes, hugs.
(Rekha giggling)
For too long have hugs
been given away for free.
Weird, crappy hugs.
You never know if they're gonna be
tight enough or weirdly limp,
but with Johnson and Johnson-brand Hugs,
these are the finest hugs,
carefully curated, handcrafted hugs.
The perfect level of tightness,
the perfect amount of holding,
the perfect hug for you
and your loved ones.
Johnson and Johnson Hugs,
hold on tight.
- Wow.
- Well done.
I like the tagline.
A little unclear how a
Johnson and Johnson Hug
might be distributed.
- Listen, I'm not a supply
chain guy, all right?
I'm just the ideas guy here, all right?
- We'll say two points for you
(dinging)
Grant, can we have a quick
word before we begin?
- Sure. Of course.
Last time, you threw
this game with silly VO
that was in no way an
actual advertisement.
- I don't think I actually understood
what I was doing last time.
I was kind of like the
voice of the characters
rather than a VO.
So that was my mistake and I do apologize.
- Okay, here we go.
- Oh my God, a sweater.
Oh my God, a sweater.
I think my biceps look good.
I don't? I'm your friend.
Wait a minute, we're cheerleaders.
Hey, if I'm gonna bend over
'cause I'm a cheerleader,
to do a little cheer for everybody.
It's going to be, it's going to look good
'cause I'm gonna do it fancy.
Dove soap has really got the thing
to make sure I can be
picked up by everybody.
Yeah, I'm really excited
to be picked up too
because I'm so clean.
Woo, I'm gonna do some squats.
(Sam sighing)
- I hope that was okay, Sam.
I wanna play the game right.
- That's 1 point for Grant.
- Rekha, it's your go.
Three, two, one and action.
- Pfft, lines.
Lines at the grocery
store can get you down,
feeling like it's just
too crowded in there.
Maybe there's not not enough space for-
Ugh! Bump! Ow! Ugh!
God, too many people, right?
Well, rest assured that at
the Farmer's Market
version of Stop and Shop,
(Sam and Trap laughing)
those crowds are gonna be big
food lovers, just like you.
No more just sorting
through crappy produce
with hundreds of other people, no.
At the Farmer's Market
Version of Stop and Shop,
we have the most artisanal versions
of everything we have at Stop and Shop.
Yeah, those oranges,
they're not artificially
inflated to be giant.
Take a selfie at our farmer's stand
and waft through our perfume aisle
with handmade perfumes
(all laughing)
from our artisanal soap makers.
Farmer's Market Stop and Shop
for the shopper that cares.
- So an improvement on
the normal Stop and Shop.
- Yeah, it's Stop and Shop Plus.
(all laughing)
- Yeah, Rekha, I'll take it.
Sure. Two points for you
bringing us back to Trapp.
This is about to get kind of surreal.
- Okay.
Three, two, one.
(gentle music)
- Smoke, from the dawn of
time, man has feared smoke.
For where there is smoke, there is fire.
Billions of dollars have been wasted
on the smoking industry.
Lies, lies that they feed our children,
lies that they feed addicts.
A thousand cigarettes
cascading down a mountain
of wastes and fury and unhealthfulness.
Give up smoking today.
- Wow!
Trapp!
Pretty impressive.
Quickly turning that
imagery into something--
- This isn't that far from the truth.
No, Grant, no, stop.
(Sam laughing)
Stop. You have to turn away from smoke.
- Trapp, I will award you
three points for that
(Rekha gasping)
(dinging)
impressive display.
(Rekha and Grant clapping)
- Now Grant, this would be
the moment to turn again
and give me something really impressive.
- Sure. I need the points.
- Three, two, one.
- I've got eyes.
I can't see out of them very well
and I sure would like a pair of glasses
because I've got earrings,
but nothing to see out of.
Boy, if I wasn't so
blind, I'd be able to see
that I wasn't in the
middle of a big, gray void.
I sure would love some
Warby Parker glasses.
(all laughing)
(Grant talking indistinctly)
I want to be able to see
the background, wee hoo!.
Whoa! (melodic "boom's")
My eyes.
(Rekha sighing)
- I'm just imagining
being now cut to Grant,
like John Hammond "Mad
Men" sitting in a boardroom
with the Warby Parker executives.
- They all stand up
and clap one at a time.
You know, Grant.
That was a little bit more the
direction I was looking for.
- Really?
- But, it's still only one
point for you (laughing).
(dinging)
Rekha, three, two, one.
- 2020 has made you feel lost.
Like you don't have anywhere to turn.
Like there's maybe a light
at the end of the tunnel,
but you're not sure.
If you feel like you've been wandering
through the endless labyrinth
that has been this year,
try Zoloft.
(Grant and Trap laughing)
The only prescription
antidepressant medication
can help be the lantern in your,
the labyrinth maze of your mind.
It can help eliminate the dark streets
of anxiety, terror and depression.
Zoloft, let it be our light.
- Rekha, super impressive.
And speaking on behalf of someone
on a new anxiety
medication, it is the best.
(Rekha laughing)
- That was a little off character for me.
I'm a Lexapro girl.
- Yeah. I think the full
three points to you too.
You know, this is a close game.
Unfortunately, not
particularly close with Grant.
That being said,
we do have a long taglines
game coming up next.
And Grant typically does very well
in this particular game.
- That's true.
- Sam, I do well in
every part of the game.
(all laughing)
- Points headed into our final round are
Grant with eight, Trapp
with 14, Rekha with 16.
The game once again, players, is taglines
and if that sounds familiar,
well, look it's hard with
every episode of "Game Changer"
to think different.
(buzzing)
- Apple.
- Grant.
- Excuse me, I was buzzed
in first and it is Apple.
- Shit!
(dinging)
(Sam and Trapp laughing)
- I forgot that's how the game started.
- All alone, in my home
during the pandemic
with the rest of the company to run
trying to come up with
games that we can do
over video conference,
I can sometimes feel my brain
beginning to snap, crackle--
(buzzing)
- That was Grant.
- Rice Krispies Treats.
Rice Krispies, Rice Krispies.
I said Rice Krispies
before I said "treats"
and that's true.
And that's a fact.
- (laughs) I'll give it
to you, Grant. (dinging)
You know, I take long walks
through the neighborhood
to come up with ideas.
You know, I bring my notepad with me
because I gotta catch them all.
(buzzing)
That was Rekha.
- That's Pokemon.
(Sam laughing)
(dinging)
- When you get really focused,
you develop this, like, it's so funny.
It's like, you're so tense
but you could not be less
interested in what you're saying.
- Well, it's very funny
for the viewer at home.
We're all looking at our phones
'cause that's how we buzz in,
but I'm sure it looks like
we're all just so distracted.
- Uh it's Pokemon.
- It is Pokemon.
That's a point for you.
You know, more recently though,
we started to do these, the "Game Samers"
and I mean, "Game Samers"
have saved my life.
They're easy, breezy, beautiful.
(buzzing)
That's Trapp.
- CoverGirl?
- That is correct.
(dinging)
- Breaking a new episode of "Game Changer"
can take me all day, but
writing this "Taglines" bit,
it just took me like 15 minutes.
(buzzing)
Rekha.
- 15 minutes you can save with Geico.
- (laughs) That's correct.
(dinging)
- Is that the tagline?
- Is that the tagline?
- With 15 minutes you can save
more on your car insurance with Geico.
(all laugh)
It sounded right.
- Now, I realized I might be putting
too much pressure on myself.
You know the goal with this series,
it's not to be original necessarily,
it's just to be entertaining, right?
I mean, that's the
ultimate driving machine.
- Hmm.
(buzzing)
- Grant.
- Mercedes-Benz is the
thing that you said.
- Not Mercedes-Benz.
- No Grant, it's BMW.
- It is BMW.
(dinging)
Now, I'll admit it.
Some Game Changer episodes
are better than others.
I don't plan on repeating
the underbaked episodes.
No, no, just the ones that
are finger licking' good.
(buzzing)
Trapp.
- You're talking about KFC.
- I am talking about KFC.
- Chicken bias.
(dinging)
- You know, an okay game can dry up fast,
but a good game is good
till the last drop.
(buzzing)
Grant.
- Fol-, Maxwell House or
Folgers, it's one of those.
Folgers.
- No Grant.
(buzzing)
- Oh Goddamn it.
- Trapp.
- Is that Maxwell House?
- (laughing) It is Maxwell House.
- Grant.
(Grant growling)
- Oh no.
- Thank you, Grant.
I was actually going to say Folgers.
- (laughing) This is going great.
- An okay game loses its sheen over time,
but a diamond is forever.
(buzzing)
Grant.
(Trapp laughing)
- I know that's in my head somewhere.
A diamond is forever.
De Beers?
- It is De Beers.
(Rekha cheering)
(Grant groaning)
- Sure, I get it.
The episode you're watching
has all familiar components
you know, lettuce, tomato, veggie burger
and at some point you'll want
me to think outside the bun.
(buzzing)
Trapp.
- You're talking about Taco Bell.
- I am indeed.
(dinging)
That's a point for Trapp.
You're thirsty for original episodes too
and I want to obey your thirst.
(buzzing)
Grant.
- Mountain Dew.
- No, Grant.
(buzzing)
- Oh God.
- Rekha.
- Sprite?
- Sprite it is.
- Oh, that's so bad.
(dinging)
- I'll still do those episodes
and "Game Samers" and stuff in between
and as we do more of the
show, it'll turn into
a proper multicolor
spectrum of episode types
and I am hoping that
you'll taste the rainbow.
(buzzing)
Rekha.
- Skittles.
- Skittles is correct.
That does it for this game.
(dinging)
The scores at the end of our episode are
Grant with 10, Rekha with
20 and Trapp with 20.
(Rekha screaming)
We have a tie.
- I'm gonna ask each of you
to pick something off the winner menu.
- [Trapp] Mmm.
- There's a right answer to this.
- Wait what is it?
(Trapp laughing)
- The acupressure mat.
- What are you talking about?
- Don't you want to lay down
and get some acupressure?
- What?
(Sam laughing)
- Let's do that Goldbelly.
- What's it gonna be for you, Rekha?
- I think I'm gonna do $100
in Goldbelly (laughing).
(Trapp laughing)
- I am sorry, Grant.
You're gonna have to pick
something off of the loser menu.
- Oh boy.
What do I take?
I'll take a sincere compliment.
You have a staggering ability
to make people feel comfortable,
perhaps more than like
98% of people I meet.
You put people at ease
with your mere presence
because you are so warm and so kind.
- Thank you.
You know what?
That's so much better
than an acupressure mat.
- That does it for us
here at Game Changer.
