Plot[]

Standing near a beach, Jon deliberately asks people unfamiliar with video games about various pieces of video game-related trivia.

The first question he asks his various interviewees is to whether or not they play games; none of them do. He then asks them as to which then-current generation system they prefer, mixing up the brand names to see if they're actually aware of them or answer merely due to pressure.

The first notable guest on this episode is an Argentinian cyclist named Claudio whose family currently resides in Brazil. He greets them in an accent which Jon compliments, before Claudio announces his intentions to go to Alaska in the near-future. Moving on, Jon asks Claudio as to which console he prefers; the "Xbox 3" or the "PlayStation E-60". He has no idea how to answer, and believes they have something to do with vikings.

Jon then asks his interviewees to fill in the blanks with various well-known video game quotes, namely those such as "The princess is in another (castle)", "Do a (barrel) roll", and "All your (base) are belong to us." He finishes the video by interviewing an inanimate statue of a frog, before riding the same inflatable dolphin from the beginning of the video which he pretends to mistake for a "penguin" before realizing it's an "elephant".

Trivia[]

  • Much like its sequel, the first episode of Gaming in Public was completely deleted from JonTron's channel and is only available through unofficial archive links.
