♪ I've got friends ♪
- Yeah.

(crew laughing)
It doesn't have the same ring to it.
(upbeat bright music)
- Maps, they tell us stuff,
but what kind of stuff?
That's for you, Link, to figure out right now.
Now I'm gonna show you a series of maps.
- I think maps just show you like geography, don't you?
- Well, and these aren't,
I mean, they're technically maps,
but we're not talking like road maps,
we're talking about like, I know you go on the Reddit.
I go on the Reddit.
That whole DataIsBeautiful, where they'll take the world
and it's got some sort of category
that's been charted throughout the world.
- Oh.
- I'm gonna show you those kinds of maps.
And then I'm gonna give you multiple choices
as to what this data is referring to.
- Okay, we're talking data distribution maps.
- Yeah, if you get three out of five of these right,
Link, you get a picture of Mr. Worldwide himself.
That's Pitbull.
(crew laughing)
- Yeah.
He is Mr. Worldwide, look at him.
He's looking around the world right there.
- You can set it right over there.
- Okay, this will motivate me.
- You can just look at that.
That's what you're playing for, Link.
This is serious.
- Okay.
- Here we go.
Here's the first map.
What do you think this map represents?
- [Link] Oh, heat.
- [Rhett] Is this A: Locations compared
based on the average amount of hurricanes per decade.
B: Locations compared based on average amount
of lightning strikes per year.
C: Locations compared based on number of people
killed by wild animals per year,
or D: Locations compared based on
who wears the most fedoras unironically.
(crew laughs)
- Oh gosh, this is more like equatorial distribution.
It gets really hot in around the equator and Africa.
That's the hottest point.
And it doesn't go up.
Hm, man.
Okay, so, hurricanes.
I know that, well, I know from personal experience
over there on our East Coast.
It does look hot, so that would make me think hurricanes.
Lightning strikes
is not the answer
because I think those are,
I think those go farther north.
Wild animals.
Hmm.
- We need an answer, Link. - You know what?
There's a lot of the middle of Africa
where I'd love to go there
and see all the wild animals they have
that hopefully wouldn't kill me.
And then down there in the Everglades,
I'm just picking places.
I think it's wild animals.
A lot of wild animals are being killed on this heat map.
Well, killing people.
- It's lightning strikes, man.
- [Link] Really?
- That is averages of lightning strikes per year.
So those are the hotspots where lightning strikes.
You were wrong, Link.
- Okay, none in Egypt.
Who knew?
- That's all you're drawing from that?
None in Egypt. - Yep.
That's where I'm going next.
- Okay, well, maybe this is gonna be tougher than I thought.
- Oh, it is. - Was that too misleading?
Okay, here's another map.
I think this one's a little bit easier.
- Okay, this is just the country that I live in.
- Yes.
- I recognize this country.
- What does this represent?
A map based on where people claim to have spotted a UFO.
A map based on the regions where people
are most likely to have cholesterol issues.
- [Link] Okay.
- [Rhett] A map based on how people
pronounce the word crayon.
Or a map of people who still say "on fleek."
- All right, so it's hot in the South,
but it's really hot on that finger sticking out from...
I don't know, the New York area, New York.
- Right. - Long Island.
Okay.
Crayon.
That doesn't make sense.
They say crayon.
We say crayon, and they say crayon.
I don't know what they say.
(Rhett and crew laughs)
Cholesterol issues.
- You know, the Creole population of Long Island.
Crayon.
You had your crayon today.
- I know that it's not UFO because Roswell-
- Hand me that red crayon.
(crew laughs)
- All of that Roswell stuff is not a hotspot on this.
I'm gonna go with-
- West Virginia is very cool, just so you know.
I wanna point that out.
So if we're talking about UFOs.
- Do they have cholesterol issues?
I guess not, 'cause that's my...
how would you measure crayon?
I'm going with cholesterol issues in the fried South
and proud of it.
- You should have gone with crayon, man.
Because you know, apparently, some people say cray-ahn
- [Link] And they've measured this?
- And some people say crayon, cray-awn, cran,
and then crown.
Those are the different ways that it is pronounced.
And so where it's red is where people say cray-awn.
- This is an accent map.
Dang it. - Yes.
That was a tough one.
That's why I told you the West Virginia,
'cause you know they got cholesterol and UFO issues
in West Virginia.
- I know, man.
- Okay, Link.
You gotta get all these right, man.
- I can do it, I can do it.
- Okay, this one's even simpler, okay?
They're just either highlighted or not.
What does this represent?
Which countries have an official language?
Which countries have a national golf team?
Which countries have Spotify, or which countries are blue?
(crew laughs)
- Well, those countries are blue.
- Yeah, uh-huh, mm-hm.
Yep, yep, yep.
- So...
the blue countries are blue.
- That's right.
(crew laughs)
You're following, you're following.
- National golf team though.
This is national golf team.
I'm feeling it.
Everywhere I look that's blue, I see them playing golf
- Right, yeah. - Australia, South Africa.
Everywhere in south America.
- You doubting yourself?
You should be.
(Rhett laughs)
- Have Spotify?
That's not nearly enough Spotify.
I think this is Spotify.
- Good, Link, it is Spotify.
Yes, you got one right.
Meanwhile, there are no countries using Tidal.
(crew laughs)
- Really, look at that.
- [Rhett] All right, Link, you're on a roll now.
Okay, this next one is a map of area codes
in the United States. - Okay.
- [Rhett] Some of them are highlighted.
What do those highlighted ones represent?
A: What area codes have been shouted out
by "American Idol" contestants.
B: What area codes receive the least 911 calls.
C: What area codes Ludacris claims to have friends in
in the song "Area Codes."
Or D: What area codes?
(crew laughs)
♪ I've got friends ♪
- Yeah.
♪ I've got friends ♪
It doesn't have the same ring to it.
- Yeah, it doesn't sound the same.
♪ In different area codes ♪
So this is people on "American Idol" saying,
shout-out to my 919 or 212, or my 316.
- Right, it's very common practice.
- Ludacris.
He said a lot of area codes,
but I mean, it's not that long of a song.
But why would he shout-out the bottom tip of Nevada?
- You don't know what happens in the bottom tip of Nevada.
(crew laughs)
- There's a lot of...
Yeah, this is not, this is not Ludacris's tour zone.
Oh, this is tough, this is tough.
911 calls.
These places don't seem any more safe than any other place.
I'm gonna go with "American Idol" shout-outs
over all of those seasons.
A.
- You either overestimated or underestimated Ludacris
because this is Ludacris.
- [Link] It is?
- [Rhett] This is where Ludacris claims to have friends.
And it also explains why the tip of Florida
burns when it pees.
(Link laughs)
- Wow.
- Link, you can't win now,
but just for pride's sake, here's your last map.
What do you think this map represents?
A: Countries compared based on life expectancy.
B: Countries compared based on alcohol consumption.
C: Countries compared based on the amount
of sexual activity.
Or D: Countries compared based on where Carmen Sandiego
has been found.
- This is confusing, 'cause it's just a bunch of colors
with no real indication.
So is-
- I'll give you a hint. - Is the U.S. a color?
- I'll give you a hint. - Is that brown a color?
- The brown is the least and the purple is the most.
- Hmm.
Well, you know what they say about vodka?
- What do they say about it?
- People who are colored purple like to drink a lot of it.
(crew laughs)
That sounded racist, but at least no one's colored purple.
So I'm gonna go with alcohol consumption.
No, so the least in the U.S.
Sexual activity.
Man.
Least amount of sexual activity.
Alcohol consumption.
- Link, you're right, that's right.
Alcohol is consumed very, very heavily in Russia
and some parts of Europe.
Also, this is a map showing countries
that think they're good at karaoke.
(crew laughs)
Link, you got two out of five. - It goes hand in hand.
Ooh, that's a tough one, Rhett.
- That means I get to take this picture of Pitbull
and put it next to my bedside.
- Yeah, right, 'cause he's a thinker and I'm not.
- Yes, he is.
Keep studying those maps, Link.
- Yeah, I will.
- Next time you'll win a picture of Pitbull.
- I'll just get a coloring book and I'll just color,
of maps.
- Do that, occupy yourself. - That's what I'll do.
