I really enjoyed the video where Leena and Craig play a jigsaw puzzle. Ever since that video I’ve wanted more Craig on the channel.

The song at my nan’s funeral as she went on the conveyor to be cremated was dancing queen by Abba because she was ALWAYS dancing. If someone’s phone rang she would get up and dance to it 😂 her son’s chose it, and when it played we all just burst out laughing and had a little boogie in our seats for her. It was PERFECT

Hi

Possibly my fave Miserymas to date, and I'm definitely making Truth Jenga to play with friends when we're allowed to have friends again.

I really relate to budget jenga. MY life is budget jenga.

My favorite misunderstanding: When I got to my biology class at my public high school I thought men had one less rib than women. I went to a really poorly funded catholic school and our teachers were hit or miss so when the Bible said “Eve was created with Adams rib”, I was like… why would people believe that if there wasn’t scientific evidence 🙃

Craig moves like a puppet lol the way he twists and turns to get his face right up under Leena’s is hilarious

I'm going to need the list of questions (or yes! make it as merch take my money) cause this seems like a great game to play on a date to get to know someone!

Craiiiiig!! We love him! You two are an unbeatable combo!

I'm 100% with Craig on the reading the right book thing. I just finished listening to La Belle Sauvage on audiobook. I read His Dark Materials in what was probably my favourite age of reading (10-14), and listening to Michael Sheen narrate a story I hadn't heard yet but which felt so familiar felt like remembering myself again.

Literally was rewatching your puzzle vid from 2019 yesterday wondering when we'd get to see Craig again! wooo! Made me smile - thanks! xx

My mum used to take me with her to get acupuncture and the first time she brought me I asked the woman performing the needling to “please stop stabbing my mum” with a lot of emotion which both of them found a lot more funny then I did. They never explained I just figured it out over time based on their reactions and all the wall diagrams. Also please make chaotic jenga question bonding merch

"Wouldn't it be surreal going to bed at 10pm and it's still light?" Yes, every year, surreal and wonderful, summer is such a high every time. The sun going down before 3pm in winter is surreal in a different way

I also don't think Bo's singing and struggling would count as an actual musical, it's more of a sing-a-long 'lay down' stand up routine?

Leena + Craig videos make me so happy! Just seeing a loving couple have fun and share some wisdom is so wholesome and cute!

Definitely taking this on for new years game - or for my experience orientated mum in Christmas! My biggest childhood misunderstanding must be that I thought the Soreen (malt loaf) was called Soren Lorenson (Charlie and Lola's imaginary friend) until I was 17.

Genius idea for merch. If you numbered the bricks instead of putting a question on them, you could release new packs of questions later on as well.

That is SUCH a great idea. And you could have different expansion packs with personality questions, getting-to-know-you questions, trivia, truth or dare etc.

these videos have been such a treat so far!

Watching from my sofa in Republic of Ireland, we moved here 3 weeks ago from London. You may both be pleased to know that because ROI is part of the Common Travel Area, no visa or fussy paperwork is required to move to Ireland :). Aside from sorting health insurance and other general bills, you basically sort out a place to live (easier said than done - there is a housing crisis) then rock up and settle down. We only hold British passports, hoping to get Irish citizenship after a few years.

Never Let Me Go is one of my favourite films. I got really excited when Craig mentioned it. There's a quote from it that I love as well all the lines of "may we all be good carers before we complete".

My childhood misunderstanding - I thought the TV show The Weakest Link was called The Winkest Link because of Anne Robinson's iconic wink

Ok this was my favourite Miserymas video so far, and now I want to play truth Jenga!

Love Leena and Craig content!

I love every no-more misery mas vid, you never fail to put me in a good and thinking mood but this one was really fun and I really enjoyed it!

What an amazing concept for a video! Love the questions you came up with!

Absolutely love this game idea! I'd definitely buy it! And this was my favorite misery-as for sure

i love the Craig content!! he must come back more frequently! you two are so great together ❤️

Noooo! Missed the tower fall!! 😵 Lol appreciated the re-enactment and loved this video. Think could make a really fun Gumption club response thread, everyone answering all these Qs 🙂 /yes to as merch! Great combo party game

Calling Alexa a simp for listening to you has me in tears

PLEASE PLEASE make truth jenga into merch it would make the BEST ice breaker 😍😍 love your videos!!

Loved this, you should definitely make as merch :-) x

“Whilst Your Down There” as an autobiography title reminds me of the cheeky titles in the Angus, Thongs, and Perfect Snogging books by Louise Rennison, but more adult! (Especially lAnd That’s When It Fell Off In My Hand”)! As a teenager it always sounded really mysteriously dirty to me 😂

Loved this episode! I'll steal the idea and make one myself and play it with my boyfriend over the holidays!

these questions are so clever!! loved the video

I’m so late to watching this, but yes make it as merch! Always love your content as is but love Craig appearances too

I'd buy this merch! This was very entertaining!

PLEASE MAKE THIS MERCH!!! Loved this so much :)

My misunderstanding as a child was that ATMs were for people who didn't want to work and could get 'free money' using the ATM. Then I learnt there's no such thing as free money and it was pretty disappointing. btw I am enjoying this Misery-mas so much, thanks Leena!

Lovely getting to see Craig in a video again!!

I’ve never seen a knock of Jenga and I love it

Love this video! Would totally buy jenga merch!

Watching this before bed to cheer me up and I absolutely loved this video!! Got me thinking about how I would answer these questions haha

How can I like this twice😃, such a great video, Leena!

Adding to the demand for a version of this as merch, would so buy it xxxxxxxxx

I'm with Craig on the musicals and am going to throw 'Rent' in the mix 🤣

Totally fantastic game. I am going to steal the idea and use it for our Christmas Day "after a few family games session".

Leena, I am lit rally abt to go buy some off brand jenga and sharpie them up. this is such a fun idea!!

Love that you love Wicked, the book! 😀

Thanks for this video Leena. I actually wrote some of your questions down because I thought they were great & thought provoking for a date night with your long time partner 😊

I’d buy it , might make it for myself and my partner to play for our upcoming 5 year anniversary

such a cute, funny, and entertaining video! thank you!

As a child, I thought women automatically became pregnant when they got married. Unmarried mothers BAFFLED me. (I was also, for some reason, *terrified* of dying in childbirth, so three-year-old me went around telling people I was never going to get married because I didn’t want to die.)

This is a mildly horrifying story

I know it massively depends on location but there is no way a normal sized house costs £1m, in the north west where I'm pretty sure the average house price is between £200k and £300k. I believe it is similar in the north east, Wales and Scotland too. London (and other big cities) house prices are just so distorting but actually a mil will still go a long way in my hometown! (think 8 bed mansion with acres of land...)

More truth budget jenga pls soon

I'm surprised Craig hasn't seen the American Idiot musical, he'd like that one! This was so fun to watch ❤️ this series has been great

Yayyy Craig video. He is so much fun. I wish he vlogged n stuff.

Love the truth Jenga, def going to try it out

Another good question: Best thing that has ever happened to you? I’ll start! I think it was genuinely and in full seriousness the pandemic for me because it taught me how to better manage my time, how I work, and how to stay organized as well as being able to spend much more time with my family.

this definitely should be merch

I want to watch a new truth budget Jenga for Christmas 2023!!! Pleeeease

Leena bring your bookshop to my town lol. It ticks all your boxes 😅

You know how sometimes you watch a video and just immediately know that it will now be your comfort video, that you will come back to when feeling anxious, upset or simply not yourself? No, just me? Okay. But this is definitely one of those for me. I was smiling stupidly throughout. Almost said that I smiled more that for this whole week and then realised that it's Monday. I feel like this comment has been written by Eeyore. 🤦‍♀️ But you made this particular Eeyore a bit merrier, so thank you both for that. ❤️

Oh my god yes the cyclist point! I agree so much! And about the funeral song one - we played Shiny, Happy People by REM at the end of my dads funeral because he loved it and he would have wanted a fun song to end on. We also started with Sit Down by James as kind of a little joke while people were entering the crematorium and sitting down 😂

haha i love the ending, you guys are so clever

As a big MT buff I would say South Park: The Musical is a legit musical. Also have you considered Boom of Mormon? It's written by the same people and has the same humour as well as lots of musical theatre easter eggs!

Something everyone should experience is living in the country, to understand nature and eco systems and how much one can do themselves. Plus the culture

Fun fact, Jenga blocks are designed to be very slightly different sizes so that they can slide out of the tower - so if your off brand blocks are a little wonky, that's potentially on purpose!

Hear the people Craig, we want you on the channel! Also this made me realize maybe you play Jenga differently in the UK? I always played where the rule was you had the stack the blocks you take out back on the top of the tower. But maybe this is actually a Tumbling Towers vs Jenga distinction.

it’s probably just a different household, different rules thing (I also stack them back on tho) For this game it makes sense not to stack them, otherwise you’d get repeating questions.

I actually think Craig's dopple ganger is Jack Whitehall! -- also I loved this video :) Thanks for sharing all those deep answers with us!

Leena almost takes two sequentially and both comment about it, but immediately after Craig’s next turn he’s the one to grab the next 9:29 Funniest about it, to me, was Craig saying “I don’t know if I can get away with this one.” Edit: she noticed whilst editing lol 13:43

I would love to get some budget jenga as merch

This was so fun 🤩

Yes please! Make it merch. It does look fun =] Thanks for all the Misery-mas videos, I've appreciated the company. Also, hi to Craig, whos name looks so bizarre typed out. Sorry.

YES WE WANT JENGA MERCH!!

i loved this! I now want to play with my boyfriend but I'm sure he'd just try an get particular questions....

14:50 as someone who lives and grew up in Iceland I can confirm that the dark is very depressing

Craig's voice reminds me of boyinaband

I would buy that game as merch!

I literally am writing all of these questions down to add to my Jenga ahahaha

that is a really considerate way to think about funeral songs xD

Loved Craig's advice about the 2 major fuck-ups that help shape you for the better (because I too had those types of fuck-ups): Even though my theoretical driver's exam was aced with flying colours on the first try, I failed the practical driver's exam at least 4 times. Additionally, I was in a toxic relationship for a year, which kick-started my campaign to actually respect & fight for my own boundaries and value myself more on a whole.
