I'm not sure why this isn't working? It looks identical to the script in the video?

Hi Bryce,

If you're on the challenge that you've linked your question to, you need to add the shout.js file into the html inside the body tags: Something like:

<body>
  <script src="shout.js"></script>
</body>

I hope that answers your question.

Steve.
