John: Good morning Hank, it's Tuesday. I missed you so much that I green screened myself into your background.

Hank: Just kidding!

J: Aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh

J: I don't like it when you do the thing where you put your chair up slightly higher than mine so you appear taller. Lower. Lower! There we go. Hello. Welcome to question Tuesday.

H: What is your favorite TikTok sound?

J: "You can really dance."

H: "Wow. You can really dance."

J: Sarah told me actually she had a dream last night that you and I were trying to make a TikTok to the "Wow you can really dance" sound...

H: oh no!

J: ...while they were like trying to like get us to leave to like go do family stuff.

J: What is your favorite essay in the Anthropocene Reviewed Book?

H: The first one that got me that made me cry was the, the, the was it, is it the first one in the book the Liverpool one?

J: Yeah. "You'll Never Walk Alone"?

H: Man! It must be so, like, enjoyable to uncover that like, there is a depth there.

J: Oh yeah.

H: That even the people who really enjoy it don't know about it.

J: The thing about non-fiction that I prefer to fiction is that in fiction, the things that happen have to make sense. And in non-fiction...

H: Has to like fit the theme, at least.

J: Yeah, yeah. The non-fiction, the things can just be true. And in the case of "You'll Never Walk Alone" the true story of the song is so phenomenally good.

H: It's so weird.

J: What would Hank and John from ten years ago say if you could time travel and tell them everything?

H: [laughing]

J: I think myself from 10 years ago would be like "uh that sounds cool, that's awesome. That's... that sounds.. that's a little scary."

H: Yeah. "ooh. That sounds..blech." And then...

J: Too many slices!

H: [laughter]

J: Too many slices!

H: That's enough slices!

J: I don't need another slice! That's, that's what they would say.

H: Yeah.

J: How about you?

H: I think I'd say "What is doge? And why do you want me to buy it and then sell it?"

J: "And then buy it again and then sell it again?"

H: "At a very specific schedule."

J: Yeah. Right.

J: How do peppers work?

H: Which kind?

J: It... I... Hank, I don't ask the questions here.

H: [laughter]

J: Oh. Is the less ripe ones green and the most ripe ones red?

H: Oh, no.

J: No. It's...

H: They're different varieties of...

J: They're different kinds of peppers

J: Would you rather have mint flavored gum or fruit flavored gum?

H: Mint?

J: Yeah. First off, fruit flavored gum does not taste like any fruit. It tastes like you described fruit to an artificial intelligence that then ran a thousand simulations of what fruit might taste like...

H: Uh huh.

J: ...and then was like here's some fruit flavored gum.

J: Hank, what's going on with the Crash Course Coins?

H: So yesterday we just launched this new project the Crash Course Coins. Uh. Yeah. I have, I have them here in my hand.

J: Cut to a close-up.

H: Cut to close-ups!

J: Crash Course reaches like 70 million students a year and we are looking to continue to be able to do that.

H: There's a $100 one that will allow us to reach two thousand learners and a $500 one that will allow us to reach ten thousand learners. We're only making 500 of those.

J: What kind of inconsequential brotherly arguments do you get into?

J: Hank acted as if I stole money from his trophies. Which he did, he would, he would he would roll up the money into his trophies and then I would steal it. I would definitely steal it and I bought all kinds of things.

H: So you're saying, you're saying that I acted as if a thing that happened happened.

J: Yeah yeah yeah, but then you didn't contextualize it properly. I used most of the money to buy baseball cards which you sold without my permission when we were in college.

H: I believe... I believe you. I can't... I, and like, it does seem like a thing where I would have convinced myself that that's okay.

J: You sold my baseball card collection on eBay.

H: It was... I learned so much about business and commerce. It was very valuable lessons that I then paid...

J: ...To to found DFTBA.com. Right. I'm sure you, I'm sure if you hadn't sold my baseball card collection on eBay you never would have known how eCommerce works.

H: Yeah that's it.

J: Did you get emotional when you saw each other in person?

H: Yes.

J: During the pandemic I have, like, struggled to feel emotion when the thing is happening...

H: Yeah.

J: ...and I kind of let myself...

H: It was very overwhelming.

J: ...feel it later.

H: Yeah.

J: Thanks for coming to our video. Hank, I will continue to see you now. Hey what are we gonna to do on Friday for your video?

H: I don't know, John. I don't have any plans.

J: Dun dun, dun dun dun dun. dun dun, dun dun dun dun.

H: Oh I guess I do have a plan.
