At 20:19 when Rose says "it was a squirting pig" did they cut the part where she says that was her nickname at college or am I self inserting my own joke? Damn memory

Hiya Mandy! 1:30 Mandy: “I feel like getting properly diagnosed would be just be a waste of money” - The only point in getting diagnosed (by a profession) would be to start medication to regulate your mood and improve concentration. Jacob has been diagnosed since he was a child, and meds really helped him with his academics throughout school. Right now he prefers not to take any medication, saying he’s more like himself when he’s not on them. Children can grow out of it, and adults can grow into it! Steven sought diagnosis as an adult, and now occasionally uses meds to help boost his performance in work, when he needs to focus. Jo decided to diagnose herself very recently, it explained so much of her behaviour too. Girls are much harder to diagnose than boys, their symptoms aren’t so stereotypical. She found the meds helped her focus a great deal and reckons there’s a lot more in the family with undiagnosed ADHD. I personally feel like it would make you less erratic, but flatten your bubbly personality at the same time. I could be wrong. You might like to try them just for the experience, it’s not going to erase your personality, but for all their benefits, you do lose something of yourself while on them. I’ve tried them myself and I don’t have ADHD 🤫 I became rampantly focussed, and began coding software for hours and hours (I can do that anyway) but then kept on going all thru the night. Focussed to the point of being blinkered to anything else. I can see why it’s used/abused in academia as a revision drug. It doesn’t necessarily eliminate distractions, it’ll keep you very distracted on one thing at a time though 🤣 4:33 Mandy pleased as punch someone else has a booming laugh (Ed) 😀 Yeah, I’ve no idea who this Andy Robinson is that Jo Brand brought in, and the only google reference to him and a cult was the taskmaster subreddit asking the bloody same question as everyone else watching the show 😀 17:32 Mandy: “20 minutes is so little for this” - Alex actually stopped creating so many 1 hour long tasks because yes they took too long, he also wanted contestants to have a sense of urgency, and he typically found the results created after 1 hour weren’t worth the extra 40 minutes, they didn’t come out much better than results after only 20 minutes. 20:52 Mandy: “a blob of frosting” looks like a curled shaving of frosting to me, like the ones chefs make out of cold chocolate with a vegetable peeler or something. 31:22 Candy Land? Had to look that one up, a board game by Hasbro?! One big advertisement for gummy bears eh? Wow, created in 1948 - a long history! Nah, If it was ever marketed to a UK audience they’d have had to change the name, what’s candy? 41:10 Re: two Bs picked. There was a whopping 33.6% chance that a duplicate letter would be chosen, and that’s if their choices were truly random! P(dupe)=1-(25/26)(24/26)(23/26)(22/26) Any bias would only increase the chances. It’s similar to the boggling statistic that you only need *23* children in a classroom to have a 50% chance two of them will share the same birthday. 43:04: Katy: “Well if you have bog roll, you’ve got to have birthday candles”, Greg: “of course you have, one follows the other!” - your most unexpected tears of laughter 😂 The part 4 was a block of ice, I’d have liked to hear that getting crushed, but alas - part 4 ends with credits. I reckon contestants have caught on, and keep asking for Alex’s help, and that’s why we see him participating more often. Very fun, Mandy! G
