- Just a little insight into how this operation works.
I see a TikTok. I forward that TikTok to Phoebe.
And I say, "Make it happen."
And we turn it into a full YouTube video.
And that's what we're doing today with rebus puzzles.
Yes, that sounds so boring.
But the TikTok I saw was a lot of fun.
Now let me read to you the definition
of what a rebus puzzle is that I memorized completely.
A rebus puzzle is a device
that combines the use of illustrated pictures
with individual letters to depict words or phrases.
Right? That makes sense.
I have no idea what that meant.
For example, the word bean
might be depicted showing an illustration
of a bumble bee next to a plus sign and the letter N.
Or it could just be a bean like a garden bean, couldn't it?
- [Phoebe] That's not what a rebus puzzle is.
- That's what I mean. That's not a rebus puzzle.
Let's just do them
and you'll understand what the hell is going on.
Let me show you.
For example, this rebus puzzle says "Jobinjob".
Jobinjob.
So in between jobs.
See, it's "in" between "jobs".
See. It's fun, right?
Okay, don't look at me like that. This is fun.
"Sbrag, sbrag, sbrag, sbrag."
Sporadic? Sbragradic.
Brag. Four spbrag.
(gasps) Oh, it spells grabs backwards.
Four grab. Backwards grabs.
Up grabs. Sgrab up grab.
Up grab. Grabs up.
Grabbing yourself up.
Up you grab.
Grabs going up. High grabs.
Grab high. High grab.
Grabbing high. High tee high grabs.
Up for
grabs.
Up for grabs!
Oh, God. We got there with a lot of help.
See, that's fun. Up for grabs, okay.
"Talir, rialt, airtl, irlat."
Oh, (beep). I have no idea what this one is.
T-A-L-I-R.
Tila- Liar.
L-A-I lait. Lait lait.
Trail.
Oh, don't. I would've got it!
Trail mix.
- Yeah! - 'Cause it's all mixed.
God, at least let me have a go.
I would never have gotten that.
Ben did this in the background.
Yeah. Trail mix.
"Stand Try 2"
Try to stand.
I'm trying to stand.
Above try to stand.
Try to stand abo- Stand above?
No, try to stand above the rest.
Standing above the rest. Nope.
Stand divided.
Try to...
Try to stand divided.
Stand under. Try to stand under.
Stand try to under.
Under... Try to understand! (laughs)
Well, it took me a while, but I understood in the end.
"584SAFETY9482".
I'm just gonna give you some time to catch up.
Safety in numbers.
"Wineee".
Wine!
Win E, E, E.
Winning.
Win... Ooh, win E, E.
Win E.
Many E's win.
Win many E.
Wind.
Winner. Windy.
Windy.
Win E the Pooh.
Do you know it?
Win E.
E, E, E. Three E win.
Three E win third.
Win... Winning. (laughs)
E.
Eee!
And a win.
Eee!
Win.
E-win.
Win E.
Many E's make a win. (laughs)
I don't know. I'll pass.
- [Phoebe] Win with ease.
- Oh.
Well, if anyone got that, kudos to you.
"Level".
Not level. Broken level.
Split level.
- [Phoebe] Yes!
- "Street".
It'll be corner street.
- [Phoebe] Or street corner.
- Street corner.
I'm just giving you some time
'cause I know exactly what this one is.
Sitting on top of the world.
I mean, this is...
Eye stand. Understand.
I... I understand. (gasps)
I know what this is.
I don't know what this is.
Smog.
"Smoke G". G above smoke.
G below smoke.
Is that how you spell smoke? That looks wrong.
Is that smok or smoke? It is smoke.
It just looks wrong, okay?
Smoke above G.
You keep going (gasps) every time.
- [Phoebe] So it's not G. The G makes a word.
- Go smoke.
Go smoke up. Go smoke up.
- [Phoebe] No.
- Oh, up in smoke.
That's not it?
Goes up in smoke.
- Yeah. - Go up in smoke.
- [Phoebe] Yes.
- Oh, then now because "go" is going up in "smoke". Okay.
I understand it. I get it.
That was a good one.
I mean, could you say it any louder?
This is Ben.
What happens is I show Ben so he knows what I'm looking at.
And he whispers it as loud as possible, "Four "give""
and four "gets".
I wouldn't have got that either.
- [Ben] Yes, you would've.
- No, you were like this.
"Forgive."
- [Ben] I'm playing as well.
- Yeah. In your head, Ben.
God, Ben, you've ruined the fun for everyone.
That was really funny.
Four "Pete"... Oh.
For Pete's sake.
- [Phoebe] Yeah!
- Rest and relaxation.
R and R. R plus R.
R plus R.
R pa, R pa, R pa, R pa pla pla.
R plus R.
- [Phoebe] I don't think you'll get this.
- Okay, well I'm gonna try now. R.
R sum.
R son. Like arson.
R sum plus R sum.
Sum R.
(Phoebe laughs)
- Yes, 'cause Phoebe is helping me.
- Oh. - Stop celebrating.
Sum R...
(Phoebe laughs)
Some R.
- [Phoebe] Which is?
- Some R. Like just R.
Some R what? Some R are.
The sum of R.
The sum of R's. R sum.
- [Ben] You said it.
- Sum of R.
- [Phoebe] He doesn't know what he said.
- Yeah, I did 'cause I solved the puzzle.
No, I solved it by saying that word that I said before.
- [Phoebe] No, what does it mean?
- It means, sum of R... (mumbles)
(Phoebe chuckles)
Don't know. What was it?
- [Phoebe] Say what you just said.
- I... (mumbles)
- [Phoebe] No. (laughs)
Wait, look at it.
- Some R.
- [Phoebe] Yes!
- [Ben] That's the answer.
- Some R.
Some R.
Oh, summer, as in winter.
Oh, I was like, "Some R what?"
Jesus (beep).
I'm not gonna lie, I used this one as an example
to send to Phoebe to collect them
and I have no idea what it is.
One, one for my life. Run for my life.
It's in between one in between my life.
One life to live. One in every my life.
One in life. One. (beep)
We did this one together.
My life, there's one... One in between my life.
In between lives. My wife, one life.
Oh, (beep), I don't remember.
- [Phoebe] How many ones are there?
- For once in my life.
(hand bangs)
Four ones in my life. Right.
Oh, damn it.
Six... Sexy travel?
Travel sexually.
Travel
overseas.
Oh. Overseas travel.
Travel overseas.
- Yes. - Yeah, great.
And he's back.
A squared ant.
Oh, a square dance.
- [Phoebe] Oh, my God. How did you know that?
- 'Cause you just say "A squared ants".
I'm doing a square dance. Is that what it is?
- Yes. - Yeah.
Well, this one looks tricky.
"House". In the middle.
House... Malcolm in the middle.
House middle. Middle house.
Does that spell house?
- [Phoebe] This is maybe the easiest one there is.
- Greenhouse.
- Yes! - Oh, God.
Thank God. Okay.
Yeah, I know this one already.
Yeah, I'll wait for you to catch up, Ben.
He's like, "I don't know. Just let me think about it."
No, let the viewers think about it.
What's the P?
It's
split.
Pea soup.
Split pea soup.
- [Phoebe] Wrong.
- What?
That was- Oh.
- [Phoebe] It's right.
- You're gonna pay for that.
- [Phoebe] I already paid for it.
- I love that Phoebe makes a joke
and then cowers in fear. (laughs)
This is easy.
Just letting everyone catch up.
Just have to think about it.
It's deep in thought.
- [Phoebe] Ooh, close.
- It's deep in thought. What?
- [Phoebe] Yeah, good enough.
- What is it?
- [Phoebe] In deep thought.
- But it's "deep" in "thought".
It's a food package.
Nowhere box. Nowhere box.
Box nowhere? Take away.
Nowhere to go.
I don't know the "All deserted".
All deserted, nowhere to go.
Nowhere to go down deserted all.
Nowhere to go.
- [Phoebe] What is the opposite of down, Christian?
- Up.
- [Phoebe] So, read it.
- Nowhere to go
up deserted all.
- [Phoebe] No, read the word not down, but up.
- Oh. Dressed all.
Nowhere to go, all dressed up.
All dressed up, nowhere to go. (laughs)
But I got nowhere to go. You have to be impressed with that.
You don't deserve 10 seconds
if you don't know that one instantly.
I'm not even gonna say it
and you're not even gonna give it away.
- [Ben] I was just gonna say
it's a Britney Spears movie.
- Oh, it is too.
(beep sound)
Phoebe tried to give it away. Beeping it.
- [Phoebe] It's okay, I'll post it in the comments.
(Christian laughs)
Oh, this way.
Eh... no.
Yep. That way.
- Well, it could go that way.
- [Phoebe] No, it doesn't.
It goes that way.
- But "what" is up, "must" is down.
What goes up must go down.
- [Phoebe] Oh.
- So you could do it that way.
I saw it in the TikTok. So "what" goes up, "must" goes down.
Can't do that way.
"Must" go up. "What" goes down.
I'm glad we had this team discussion over that one.
Yep, I've also got it. Definitely.
But I'll just give you time to get it.
Oh, got it.
I mean I've always had it this whole time.
It is metaphor.
- [Ben] This is the easiest one.
- Yeah, obviously it is.
Million.
Mil lion.
One lion, too many.
One million lions.
I... 'course I know. It's one in a million.
Oh.
You're not sure?
I actually know it.
- [Ben] Something to do with eggs.
- Yeah, they're scrambled, Ben.
I mean, great one to end on.
I get called this a lot.
A smiley hor.
Ho-smile-or.
Ho...
Hor... Hor.
Ro... Rah.
- [Phoebe] Are you serious right now?
- No, of course I know what it is.
Smile in ro
hor.
Smile a ho? Hor smile.
Horse! Horse.
- [Phoebe] I can't tell if you're making it up.
- No, I don't actually know what it is.
Just let me get it.
It's obviously really obvious according to Phoebe.
So it's a smile in hor.
I mean, that's all.
A smile before. Before 'cause it's before the R.
Before... No.
Smile before ho.
Ho ho ho, it's Christmas. Santa.
Smiling hor. That's all I get.
- [Phoebe] Why do you smile? Because you're...?
- Sexually satisfied.
Why do I smile? Happy.
I don't get happy from that though.
Ho smiler.
- [Phoebe] Are you still serious?
- Yeah.
Oh, happy hour.
Don't roll your... That's not obvious.
Happy hour.
Oh, like U is a smiley face.
All right.
Thank you for playing along. That was good.
Well done. Thank you for getting those, Phoebe.
And Ben, thank you for spoiling 30% of those.
Mm, this cup of one singular coffee tastes delicious.
It only costs about $3.99.
That is coincidentally the price of how much it costs
