I was over here like, "Yeah, we all saw it spelled out like a billion times in the episode" ...before I realized that not everyone watches everything with the closed captioning on like an old person.

Can’t wait for Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn and Ouagadougou to be recurring in jokes for the rest of dropout history for these three the way roseate spoonbill is for Brennan

This is frustrating to me because they never pronounce it right. Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn has a "zh" that comes from the letter ж in Александр Исаевич Солженицын. The ж is pronounced like the letter s in "pleasure" Actually 2:11 basically has it.

at 2:14 trapp says it almost perfectly

I looked up aleksandr, and dude got married to a natalia, divorced and remarried said natalia, then divorced and married a different natalia. Just something interesting i found. He was also a critic of stalin.

I'll never forget Solzhenitsyn's name cause I had to write an essay on one of his books in high school and managed to misspell his last name 20 different ways through the course of writing it. It's burned in there now

The quality of the "Deja Vu" episode worsens with each "replay" like its a VHS tape, either breaking down from multiple rewinds or as if it's a copy of a copy. Game Changer us up for an Emmy this year, and this season alone makes he think they've earned it.

Siobhan should play a reptillian, element-breathing character in the next d20 campaign so it'll be the Siobhan Dragonborn. *does a stupid dance*

"that's how we pronounce it in England" I can't 😂😂😂

omg, i was pronouncing ouagadougou incorrectly my entire time

"for the ethical force with which he has pursued the indispensable traditions of Russian literature." He didn't get to pick it up until 1974 or the Soviet Union would shoot him for it.

as a russian speaking person, it's so funny for some reason to watch them try to pronounce a russian surname

Солженицын, easy

everybody do the wenis

Fun fact (besides me knowing both these things) they are not pronouncing it correctly, even Sam. It's not like "j" in jackal, it's like in "j" j'ataime in french (I'm not French, I dunno exact spelling)
