  • In "The Sad Nugget Roundup", he set-ups the showcase of the "MyMusix" player by mocking its odd design, in the style of its "creator" drawing its design.
  • "The Most Aussie iPod Accessory I've Found" has Wade quite literally singing the praises of pawnbroker chain Cash Converters, source of many a particularly crunchy iPod or accessory.
    Wade [singing]: Oh, I found it at Cashies, mate
    Where you can find your dreams
    They've got wares and chairs, and a bong downstairs
    Some clubs, some tubs, and hats for scrubs
    And out-of-date movies
    So get on down to Cashies, mate
    You know it'll change your life
    So get off the floor, head out the door
    Forget eBay, they charge you more
    And lose your life at Cashies
    Mate.
    • His very fitting intro to said video:
    Wade: Happy 'Straya Day! Bust out the Tim Tams, the Anzac biccies, keep nana in the loop with some Tic Tocs, get a cuppa in ya and don't forget to put some shoes on because this is the most Aussie iPod thing I've ever found!
    • The Cuppa is illustrated with a mug of tea being obliterated by the thrown 1Grit.
  • One after-show, normally a Patreon bonus, was released for free because of a rather astounding quality control fail he encountered on a Batman: The Brave and the Bold-themed nugget. Namely, the factory forgetting to install the circuit board. Wade's reaction is priceless.
    Wade: Guys... guys... guys, they didn't finish building this.
  • Amusingly (and horrifyingly), due to the way the back of the iGuy is shaped, it appears to have a face on it, in which Wade comments that it's like Voldemort.
  • "They made drumsticks for the iPod" has Wade attempting to use a pair of MiJam air drumstick toys. Disappointingly, they don't work in their intended use, so Wade tries breaking them by using them with his real drumkit...and they end up holding up perfectly well, no matter how hard he played with them! (Though when Wade later purposely snaps them in half, they do so like butter.)
  • The giant AirPod featured in "It's Bootleg AirPods Time." is thematically ridiculous and sounds terrible... even before it turns out the supposedly "HD" microphone is either faulty or completely unable to handle interference from the speaker at all, resulting in it creating sounds that alternate between being reminiscent of a malfunctioning fax machine and a drunk otamatone. Not even Percussive Maintenance helps; even if a given whack stops the racket, it just starts again a second later. Wade later uploaded the full recording as a Christmas special.
    Wade: I'm trying to record with it, and... (laughs) What... what's wrong with it?!
  • The official Sennheiser Youtube channel leaving a comment on Wade's video about his Airpods Max.
  • In The Worlds Most Powerful MP3 Player. (Fiio M17), Wade tests the M17's "bluetooth receiving mode" by watching A Bug's Life through a pair of Jecklin Floats, so he can make a bad pun on its sound.
    Wade: It sounds floaty!
  • Wade's attempts to use an Apple Newton. After training it, he attempted to input the famous "Beat up Martin", only for it to output "Brokerage"; at least "Eat up Martha" resembled what Dolph was trying to input! From multiple failed attempts to get it to write "dingus" to it misinterpreting "good" as "food" to it somehow rendering "Hello my name" as "dominance" when he tries to input "Hello my name is Frank", resulting in what sounds like a BDSM-related Ice-Cream Koan, the whole thing is golden.
  • When the box for Kwak Kwak claims 'room filling sound', Wade regards it as meaningless and follows "You know what else makes a room-filling sound?" and quick-cuts to pushing a ceramic plate and mug off a kitchen counter, with the resulting smash indeed being room filling.
  • During "The Headphone Stink-a-thon", Wade realises he's talking about the HD600s in such a way that it could potentially lead into him playing the full HD600 audio sample without switching to another pair of headphones. Whilst this occurs, an image of the HD600s slowly zooms in onto the camera while "Walk Through The Park" plays as normal.
    Wade: Oh wait a minute, what happens now? I could-I've never actually talked about these in a video like this where, like what? Do we just play the whole sample of the song with no changes? It's just-all right!
  • "I found a nightmare.", which details Wade finding an official SpongeBob MP3 player with a rather disturbing design: it's just a round circle with SpongeBob's eye serving as a button.
    Wade: What do you think of when somebody says, "Let's make a SpongeBob MP3 player?" I mean, what would it be? Maybe it looks like a bubble wand, or maybe it's him smiling like (imitates his laugh), and it goes? (reveals the player) Why'd they have to go and make it look like a nightmare?! (screams in horror)
    Wade: EWWWWWWWWW!!! EWWWWWWWW!! EW, AND IT'S HI-UGGHHH!! IT'S HIS EYEBALLS?!?! HGHPLUUURGH!!!
  • In "Even Hot Wheels made an MP3 player", Wade shows off a Toshiba laptop he had recently purchased to replace his dead Asus Eee PC, only for the laptop to die on screen while filming it.
  • Wade shows off a tablet from the budget electronics company Craig (a company that is no stranger to the channel), which, despite being released in 2020, has so much loading it makes Sonic '06 look blazing fast by comparison.
    • For instance, it takes nearly a minute for the tablet to start up - and that's not including the two-to-three minutes it takes to try and connect to the internet.
    Wade: So... am I playing SimCity 2000 on the Sega Saturn at the moment? Like, because that's what this feels like! Craiiiiiiig. Craaaaiiig, NO! Craaiiiiig!!! ARE YOU KIDDING?!
  • Wade shows off the Maraca Cracker 9000, a device that was custom-made for him by a fan. Its purpose? Blowing up bad headphones. And it works like a charm, leading to a video that largely consists of Wade cackling like a madman as every pair of headphones he tests on it get obliterated in seconds (with some being knocked out so hard that smoke came out of them).
