Of course it’d be Ben who suggests getting drunk.

Douglas Adams was quoted as saying "I love deadlines. I love the whooshing sound they make as they go past." On the original Hitch Hikers Guide radio series, he was writing scenes and taking them down to the cast while they were in the studio recording the episode.

Well, the "much relieved" part and the fact it was a trip to Japan made me think that he was just really committed to using one of those high-tech Japanese toilets at least once.

In 1985, my dad flew from Sydney to Honolulu, had lunch and flew back 😮 His US green card would expire if he didn't set foot on US soil at least once every 12 months. Since all of our green cards were linked to his, it would have made moving the family to the US a few months later quite a bit more challenging 🤔😂

Just a note from an audio engineer incase Sam and Adam happens to see this: Adam, you are speaking into the wrong end of the mic, you are supposed to talk into the front, where the logo is. Sam: that mic is designed to not have proximity effect (the addition of low frequencies when you talk close to it) which means, you can speak way closer to it, meaning you don't have to keep the gain that high, so the resulting sound would be less echoey

I always envision what I think the guests look like in my head when I listen to an episode, then I watch the highlights and I’m never right.

The 'only phone and laptop' part of the clue had me thinking that maybe it had something to do with the international dateline and what date showed on his devices when he performed some action. I was thinking that he needed something he did to be timestamped with the previous day's date, but then I realized that crossing the dateline going west would move him forward one calendar day.

Perfect question for this cast xD Well done from the production crew to coordinate that

My first idea was that he had made some kind of commitment to visit every country in the world before a certain date, then realised he had missed Japan with only two days left on the deadline, but couldn't spend longer there because he had to work the day after.
Then I remembered a charity event that university students used to do, where it was a contest to get as far away from the starting point as possible in 24 hours starting with no money. There were legends of students who had made it to other countries by blagging plane tickets or getting a company to sponsor them. I don't remember what the event was called.

Tom not knowing something is always a surprise - especially when I had to study that very subject matter in high school haha

I get a warm feeling anytime I hear fellow Americans praise Taskmaster.

Yes!!!!! This crossover is everything

I'd assumed it was to comply with a poorly-worded deadline that didn't specify time zone, but which was trivially doable from the airport (email or fax a document - so it's timestamped locally - before midnight on such and such a date). So you get off the plane, connect to cell service, hit 'send', and go straight to the departure lounge. Until I realised you'd be a day ahead in Tokyo.

Tom, with one of your 26 weeks left of the weekly videos, you should visit Walden Pond.
Edit: now that I have thought about it some more, this should be your final video in the ten year streak. It would be fitting to go to Walden to take some time off.

And here my first thought was some sort of immigration check-in - "If you don't set foot in Japan for five years, you lose your citizenship!", something like that.

Dear Adam Chase regarding sound quality; The Blue Yeti is a front facing microphone, and in your environment you should be talking to the Blue logo at the front of the microphone. This will mean that your voice will be picked up properly rather than mostly the reflection from your room. I hope you read this and can improve your sound quality for future recordings! :)

Adam might actually be the best guest you guys have had on lol. He's so funny and really thinks about it the right way

Even jet-lag the game wasn’t crazy enough to do this!

This is my question! Cool to hear the bloke from HAI answer it

Anyone else get the feeling that once Tom finishes his continual run of Monday videos next year that he'll have the time to be Sam's teammate on a season of Jet Lag?
