SnackDown - Monday Night 8PM

SnackDown is John's food tasting night, when he samples the foods sent to him by members of the chat. He gets sent foods from around the world to try. Notable mentions go to The Pinuk Box (The Indulgence Box) from Israel which John has received several times, and boxes curated by community member Div\_Loi to cause chaos and confusion, and often to inflict at least some pain through the inclusion of various highly spicey foods. (Content Warning for Clips on this page - vomiting is involved)

## Le Sac Vomitoire

John isn't overly keen on swallowing foods he doesn't like, so the channel places bets on whether a snack food will be a Vom or a Nom. At the beginning before eating the first snack John always fetches Le Sac Vomitoire (a plastic bin bag) the receptacle for anything that John spits out when he doesn't like the taste or, quite often, the texture, often resulting in him retching violently into Le Sac Vomitoire (sometimes this may be for comic effect but often it seems to be genuine).

## Food Tiers

Each week chat helps John come up with a rating system from excellent to diabolical but using all sorts of weird and wonderful (and hilarious) rating systems. Some examples are below.

## D.A.D after Dark

On occasion a Monday Night Snackdown get's a D.A.D takeover usually if John had a live show at the weekend meaning that D.A.D was unable to have Sunday Lunch with his kids. This does still usually involve food - but not ratings and not Le Sac Vomitoire. It tends to turn into more of a chilled stream and often takes place downstairs in the kitchen and lounge.

## Challenges and Dares

John hates Parma Violets, Parma Violet Gin, Parma Violet Marshmallows, Proper Marshmallows, Carolina Reaper Chilli's, to name a few foods. However, John does take dares and challenges from Chat if it will either raise money for charity, or on occasion if chat offers a bribe in exchange. A perfect example can be found below (N.S.F.W.) where John was challenged to eat and swallow (and keep it down) a piece of Parma Violet Marshmallow. Bearing in mind he had already tried once that day, and once the day before. He accepted the challenge. And hated every moment of it. He was however successful.

Other food challenges have included eating hot sauce and drinking Parma Violet Gin for charity. One example being used to raise money for The Charity Mermaids UK.

## Snack Free Monday's

On occasion John doesn't feel hungry, and reaches for an alternative show format for a Monday Night, some of these shows are Crap Video Game nights, others are chillstreams or AMA and Jazz streams. And just occasionally something truly different and delightful happens. For example on 01/11/2021 John decided to try to build a house of cards while drinking caffeine and alcohol, being pranked and distracted by chat and generally being his wonderful, wacky and entertaining self. The show started with a very smart looking John wearing his suit jacket and looking, according to chat, like he was a dealer at a casino, or a magician. By the end of the show however, we had a playful, slightly tipsy topless John. Chat took repeated bets on how many tiers of cards John would successfully stack, the best he managed was three tiers, he tried different kinds of card including the wonderful Comedy Playing Cards drawn by AislinnDraws, and Uno cards. Somehow the Comedy Playing Cards also ended up being a metaphor for the state of Comedy. It was a lot of fun, and an all in all wonderful way to spend a few hours.

## 08/11/2021 An extra long celebratory Stream (The final hours of the 90 Day SubGoal) and continued on the following day at the 12PM's Show.

### And another Card House Attempt! More specifically hours of attempts!

It took many hours to get to this point, however John persevered.
