GMM 2721: Which Country Eats The Most Meat? (According To Data)

Today we’re embarking on high speed races through time. Let’s talk about that. Good Mythical Morning. You know, there are a lot of YouTube shows out there, but I take real pride in being the only one that puts on Kentucky Derby hats and screams at bar charts. Mm-Hmm. At least I think we’re the only one. For now. But just wait. It is going to sweep the nation. It is time for Chart Break Feels Good in a Race Like This. Part two. That’s not even, that’s not the hat that I, We keep, I guess there are a lot of derby hats, but it’s, okay, they do look good on you. You mean like, the big ones that people wear at the Kentucky Derby is what you keep thinking? No, you wore the big, like, women, not big women. It, well, you know, it doesn’t matter what size you are, you can still, you, anyway, uh, welcome back to the Bar Chart Derby Boys. You’re each starting with 100 Mythical Derby Dollars, and can wager as much as you’d like on each bar chart race. Your first bar chart tracks the ways that couples have met. Here’s how the chart looks in 1970. Okay, mostly through friends, over a quarter of people, then family, then bar restaurant people. Can you believe zero percent online? I can’t believe it. Well, by 2024, of course, online is number one. But my question is, what percentage will it claim? What percentage will that number one online spot claim? Remember, I need your answer and your wager. How close do we, is it just whoever’s closer? Yeah, whoever’s closer. So, how do you meet someone through neighbors? Neighbors. Especially when it’s spelled that way. Hey, Tim! Oh! Hello, neighbor! You got the new, you, you, you, you got the new, uh, weed whacker 3000, huh? Well that makes me think about, uh, a friend of mine that would love to meet ya! That’s how it happens. Oh, okay. Weedwhacker leads to love. She’s got a weedwhacker too! Well, maybe you could get together and compare weedwhackers! You know. By 2024, what percentage is online for meetings? Man, is it the majority? What percentage did you put? I put 51%. I think it’s the majority of people are now meeting online. You might be right! And I am going to bet Oh, we have to wager. Should we have done that before we saw our answers? Mhm, it’s okay Is that before going, can I go over? I mean You have 100 Mythical Derby Dollars. So if you want to, oh, can you go over in your answer? Yeah, I’m just gonna say it was $25 for now. $25. Uh, I’m going to say $20. Okay. A little less confident. Twice as much as what friends did. Let’s start that chart. Oh, it’s moving. I mean, 1977, when is it gonna start? I mean, people are gonna start, Some people were meeting online in the 80s? What, like, government contractors? And then co workers. Whoa, whoa, whoa! It’s already up there by three. 29, 30, 30, 30, 35, 40, 40, 40, 55, 55, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes! 60%? 60%? 61%? Yes! Yes! Yes! The majority of people meet online, Rhett. We missed the boat. And only 1.28%? Neighbors. Neighbors above college. Hold on. Again, I’m a little suspicious at this point. You meet your partner more through your neighbors than at college? It’s negligible at that point. What’s the education system coming to? Alright, but hey, 8.5% co workers. Hold on, hold on. Our, our, uh, our policy addresses that. Okay, Link takes that one. Yes. This next bar chart tracks daily meat consumption by country from 1961 to 2013. And here’s the chart where it begins in 1961. Okay. Daily meat consumption in 1961. Mongolia was really, really up there. Grants for days. They will eat some meat in Mongolia. And what is the question? In what year did the U.S first hit the number one spot? Oh. So in 1961, we didn’t eat that much meat I got Argentina, Australia, New Zealand, Uruguay. What year? I’m surprised that we’re kind of, that we’re that low. I would’ve thought we were already number one in 1961, but what does that tell you about me and my Ameri-centric views? We become number one in, I don’t think it’s Don’t say it yet. I don’t think it took that long. I’m not that confident in this. So I’m not, I’m gonna go with another. Okay, I went with 25 to try to make up the difference. 1989, you’d think it was even quicker. 1979, it’s not gonna be much of an animation. If we’re just going, you know, 18 years. Oh, and it does go to 2013, doesn’t it? Okay. But I think it, Let’s start that chart. Come on, United States, eat some meat. Ooh, New Zealand almost caught up with Mongolia. We’re getting, we’re moving, we’re moving pretty fast. Whoa, hold on. But Argentina’s still moving up. Oh, oh, here we go. Come on, come on, come on, come on. Come on, come on. Mongolia’s still on top. Whoa, whoa, what happened? New Zealand. What is happening to us? Why are we keep getting beat? We’re gonna lower. Meat! Meat! Meat! Meat! Meat! Meat! Meat! Meat! Meat! Here we go, here we go. 1986, 1980, 798. Oh dang, Link! I was one year shy! You’re gifted at this game. Yes, yes, yes, You should gamble. Yes queen! You should gamble. And, uh, by 2013, the US had moved down to number two, behind Australia. There’s something funny to say about Hungary, It’s per capita, yes. Per capita. That makes sense why, like, Australia is, we’re so much bigger than them, but it’s just how much meat an individual person. Divided by the population. Yes. That makes a lot more sense why it took us that long to get there. Because I bet you total meat, we were probably the meat kings in 61. And what about total wine? Uh, yeah, you get some great deals there. They have everything. Not a sponsor. Don’t let them tell you they don’t have beer, because they do. This next chart tracks life expectancy by country. Here’s what it looks like in 1800. Whoa, it was tough to live back then. Even in Iceland you could only make it to 42.9. 42.9. Hey, we would be. Beyond expectations. Both of us. Yes, we’ve exceeded our 1800 life expectancy behind the Netherlands, Belgium, and Iceland. Your question is, What year does a country first reach an average life expectancy of 85 years? And, for a bonus point, where in the world does it happen? 85. What year? Where? And wager, please. Hmm. So to double the life expectancy. Okay. And then what country is number one at that time? I’ve also been told the bonus point is worth ten dollars. Ten dollars. Ooh. And I’m blowing you out of the water, homie. Yeah, I’ve got to do some stuff here. So I am really going to I am really going to, I’m going to double my wager to 50 and say in 1931, Japan. I said in 1999, Japan. Oh, you said Japan, too? I don’t think it’s Japan, though, because I think there’s a place in Japan where people live to be really, really old. That late? For the average life expectancy to be 85? Mm hmm. Okay. Okay, let’s start. I think it’s gotta be after the antibiotic era. Sure. Okay, well. Well, the U. S. is moving down. Norway moved to the top. By 1860, Norway. We are still in the, we’re only in the 50s. Bro, it ain’t gonna be 1931, I’ll tell you that right now. No way. I, I really screwed this pooch. So what you’re gonna have to do is you’re gonna have to try to win, huh? Look at that. Whoa, whoa, whoa. 99’s still not doing it? Wow. 2020! Hong Kong! Dang it! Japan was second place, but it was 85! Hey, we did good to both guess Japan. It doesn’t help us at all. Hong Kong’s 85 wow. Yeah, Rhett’s closer. I almost went into the 2000s, but it didn’t matter. It didn’t matter. I lost 50, which doesn’t hurt me that much. Whoa, hey, look, it’s any man’s game. Yeah, it is. I don’t like that. Okay, before I show you the next one, I did want to let you know that I have been eating a lot of cheese lately. Yeah, I know what you’ve been doing. Yeah, I can tell. Over at Sporked, you made a Sporked video. If you want to see Stevie in a Sporked video eating All of the Trader Joe’s cheese, that comes out today. Go to the Sporked YouTube channel to see Stevie eating Trader Joe’s cheese. And while you’re there, you know what you can do? You can watch me eat beans, and you can watch Link eat pudding. I mean, you like to watch people eat one thing. We’ve done it. We’ve done that. And it’s also unedited. So it’s like a good, chunky, you know, these three videos are good, chunky, unedited versions of us. Anything that happened during beans, pudding, or cheese, it’s in there. All the content over there is unedited. I’ll also tell you what happens after you eat all that cheese. It’s not great. It’s not great. Not much. Not much happened. This chart, Is it what doesn’t happen after you eat all that cheese? Am I right? You are right. Well, this chart tracks what happens after you eat all that cheese. Okay, alright. Really? How many rounds do we do? I wanna know. I mean, we gotta think about money, wagers. A handful. We have a handful. Um, okay. This next chart tracks the highest grossing media franchises. Starting in 1960 and going to 2023, and here’s what the chart looks like in 1985. Winnie the Pooh? 47 billion. What? Highest grossing franchises. Dollars. 47 billion dollars. Wow, that doesn’t, does that make sense? I don’t know. Numbers. Numbers time. I think it’s in cents. I think it might be in cents. No, I don’t know. But we just know that Winnie the Pooh was the biggest thing in 85. Anpanman? So your question is what year Does James Bond exit the graph? That’s tough. He’s down there with 7 billion. What year does James Bond exit the graph? Yeah, and for a $10 bonus, what replaces James Bond? Okay. What? And the fact that it says Avengers down there, but it doesn’t say Marvel, that’s strange to me. It is dollars. Straight up Winnie the Pooh. People were buying some Winnie the Pooh. Any Winnie the Pooh thing that’s ever been made. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But to be that much bigger than Star Wars in 1985? Wow. Well, it had just, I mean, well, I guess 77 was when the first one came out. Um, huh. What year does James Bond leave? When did that really, When did James Bond start falling off? The problem is he fell off but then he came back, I think. I think I know what’s going on here. Well. Am I helping you out? Oh, I see what you’re saying. Hmm, that, well, cause I was, I wasn’t thinking about the interim period. What replaced him? I’m gonna stick with my guns on this one. I don’t feel great about it, but, And remember your wagers. I’m betting $20 that it was 19 Hold on, hold on. Okay, I’m also betting $20. $20, I’m betting 1998 and it was Pokemon. I said it was 2012 and it was Lord of the Rings. Which I like that answer because that’s already on there. Middle Earth, so. Oh! You messed up, buddy! Okay, that was just a bonus. Let’s see it. Let’s start that chart. Come on, 1998! So, who’s coming in? Mario’s moving up big time by 1988. Oh no, oh no. James Bond, he’s falling so fast. He’s falling. James Bond. Oh no, okay. Mario and Star Wars. If he holds on, if he holds on. Dragon Ball. If he holds on and makes it into the 2000s, he’s gonna stay. Transformers. Did we get some Pokemon? Oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no! Pokemon just happened! Pokemon is here! Hold on, James! Hold on, James! Hold on, James! Uh, we passed, alright. 2002, so, I got it, man. Did he come back, though? Yeah, well, Link’s closer. Neither one of you got the, um, Swapsies. But I was close because Pokemon joined the chat. shortly before we ended it. Well, you got it right. You still got the normal points. What was the actual answer? Uh, Barbie. Barbie. Barbie. Oh, it’s right there. We see it. Yeah. Um, it’s our final chart. Mm hmm. And it tracks global brands by value from 2007 to 2024. Here’s the chart where it starts in 2007. Okay. It’s an ugly chart. Mm hmm. Coca Cola is big. Global brands by value. Marlboro hanging on now. Marlboro was in there in 2007. That ain’t gonna last. Okay. Okay. Name as many of the top three companies in 2024 as you can. You have three guesses for a maximum of three 10 points. Well, how does that work? One point deducted for each incorrect guess. But you also have to wager. Hmm, how are we doing this math, you ask? So in 2024, there’s three things that were, that are added to the list. Hmm. Hmm. I’m, I’m, I’m rewinding what I said, cause as I said it, didn’t make sense to me. I think it’s, the points go to whoever gets more of those three, but only, only write three on your list. Does that make sense? Man, I think I got some good answers here. There’s a 50 point differential, so I don’t want to lose. Okay, I’m gonna bet one dollar. Okay. And I’m saying in 2024, Target, Google, and Starbucks have entered the chat. And I said, uh, it was Apple, Google, and Facebook, $70. Mm. We can both be right, you know? All six of these could take over. But they gotta be more in the top three. Top three. Oh. I didn’t, I didn’t, I didn’t remember to hear that. All I know is that Marlboro is still up there. There’s no way that goes off the, Let’s start that chart. You know Apple’s gonna enter. Oh, there comes Google. Apple after the iPhone. Google’s going up. There’s Apple going up to the top. Boy this thing dances around big time. And then where’s the Facebook? Where’s my Facebook? There it is. Amazon. We forgot about Amazon. Why didn’t we think about Amazon? We should have Amazon, Apple, and Google. That’s the ones, yep. Nope, Microsoft got up in there. But Google and Apple are in the top three. Whatever happened to Target and Starbucks? That means that Rhett Oh, I pulled it out. Pulled off the win. You pulled off the win. I pulled it off, pulled it out, whatever. Uh, and, uh, you get your own personalized bar chart race. Let’s take a look. Oh, oh. Dilf status. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Okay, so hold on, so if it’s personalized, I should win, right? I mean, if it’s personalized, my version should win, right? Right, right, right, right. Giving it. Okay. Run for its money. I mean, you probably would’ve, you know, won, if you had won. I feel like I’m surging, though. By next year, I was catching up with you again. I’m gonna out dilf ya. I’m gonna dilf you down. Yeah, but I’m gonna start smoking Marlboros again, so. Again? Yeah, you better watch out. I’m not.
