Chapter 3: What does it mean when someone says they're feeling 'peckish'?
So why aren't you going inside to watch more movies? Everybody else is.
I mean, there's no lie told there. Oh, like the theater.
The theaters, yes. Because the biggest debut of 2026 just happened with Toy Story 5.
Oh, my gosh. It was the biggest opening for the franchise.
Wow.
It opened to $160 million at the box office. That's just domestic. Worldwide, it made $312 million.
Oh, my goodness.
Making it the second largest animated opening weekend in history. Wow. Behind a 2018 flick. Is it the other? No, not Herbie. Incredibles 2 made $182 million its opening weekend. Well, because these family movies are so fun for everyone, the adults and the kids like them.

Chapter 4: What does it imply if a movie is described as 'pants'?
And there's just not very many of them anymore. It's either blood, guts, and horror or animation.
Yeah, and by the way, Toy Story 5 is blood, guts, and horror. Who says you can't have both? Meanwhile, Brooke's favorite, Supergirl, is tracking at $45 million, which is much, much worse than it was projected to make on its opening weekend. Why would you try to compete with Toy Story 5? Why wouldn't they push it back? You've been very vocal in your support of the film.
Can we assume you put your money where your mouth was and already went and saw it in theaters?
Of course she did. I still need to go see that Mandalorian film. Like, I am way behind on the film.
The man? I just... I mean, you've at least pre-ordered it on Paramount Plus for when it comes out, right? I don't have Paramount Plus. I don't think that's even a thing. You've listened to the Supergirl soundtrack on Spotify, though, by female composer Claudia Sarn. Wait, what?
What?
Are you using Supergirl as some feminist movement thing?

Chapter 5: What is the meaning of 'numpty' in British slang?
Because I don't think that's how it reads at all. I think it's just a fun superhero movie, Jeff. But you were so much for it before.
Well, I am. I'm excited for it. When we get around to seeing it, I really
We'll get around to it eventually.
Dude, you don't want to see it? The Superman was such a good film.
I do have a rumor of a sequel that's coming out soon. I'm just going to drop it. We can move on to the show. Jim Carrey and director Ron Howard may be heading back to Whoville for a Grinch sequel. Whoa, I would love that. The story ends. Yeah, but why do we need more? They're going to make a new one? Maybe apparently there's a follow-up, something that hasn't been told yet.
We don't need that.
I also heard Ron Howard's in talks to do a live-action shot caller question of the day movie.

Chapter 6: How does British slang influence American English?
Starring better looking versions of all of us. And I heard that The Rock is tabbed to be playing Digital Jake when he reads the questions. So let's hear it. Well, today is National Porridge Day. which sounds cozy and charming until you realize porridge is just the fancy British way of saying bland bowl of oatmeal.
Those cheeky Brits always trying to use flowery language to make their weird European stuff sound cooler. What other things are they renaming behind our back? Good question, Jake. Next thing you're going to call Chip something different. It's time to find out during a special multiple choice batty British buzzwords edition of... Plenty of 20.
Now, you can say a number 1 through 20, and I'll give you a strange word that they say over in jolly old England. You just have to tell me what it means here in America. Okay. We'll start with the woman who the British would describe as, quote, a wee bit of a dizzy bird. Oh. That's Alexis. I think it's a compliment. I would hope so. Five.
Chapter 7: What are some examples of British buzzwords used in everyday conversation?
Number five. Alexis, in Britain, if someone calls you a Wally, what are they saying? You're a cab driver? You're a fool or an idiot? You're extremely wealthy? Or you give it up way too easily?
Ooh. Why can't it be all of those together? I was going to say. As we know, I dated a British guy for a while. I've never been called any of these, so that really makes it confusing.
Was it called easy, weird, or super rich?
You've never been called healthy. Easy, weird, or rich. So let's go cab driver.
Alexis thinks Wally's a job, and she's a Wally because it means you're a fool or an idiot.
Wow.
Gotcha. 0 for 1 for that, Wally. Will we have a second Wally?

Chapter 8: How do cultural differences shape our understanding of language?
Brooke, how about a number, please? Five. She already said five.
You Wally got her. Love that.
The gotchas continue. Number six. Brooke, a British person says, I'm feeling a bit peckish. What does peckish mean? Are they slightly hungry? Uh-huh. A little sick? Uh-huh. Ready for a nap? Uh-huh. Or they're in the mood for?
Oh. A little peckish. Hey, peck peck. Right?
But I feel like if you're peckish, it's like you're a little bird. You want peck it, some food. So I think you're a little hungry, Jake. Brooke's going with her bird knowledge. And it hangs around. Peckish, you're just a little bit hungry. We're talking British slang. And Jose, we're over to you. I'm going to go seven. Number seven. Five, six, and seven.
Jose, if someone offers you a buddy in the UK, what are they giving you? Is it a nickname? Is it a sandwich? Is it a cigarette? Or is it a big old plate of bangers and mash? Like, a buddy feels like a sandwich. Like, here, take this friend with you. I mean, I feel friendly with my sandwich. Yeah, like, this is my new buddy until I eat it. I'll give you a hint, Jose.
It's spelled with T's, not D's. Oh, buddy. I wonder if it's bangers and mash because it's, like, the butt of the animal. Oh, my God. He had sausages and all the... Actually, I'm going to take Brooke's logic. I'm saying bangers and mash. Lock it in, Jacob. Jose says bangers and mash. My hit might have hurt you, Jose. It's a sandwich. It was a sandwich. I was trying to help.
Yeah.
All right. Jeffrey Brooks, the only one who's gotten one right. You got to get this right to keep the game going. How about a number? 18.
