Crowd: Good morning John, it's Friday!

Hank:
"Well a pheasant is a bird And they need to be plucked After being slaughtered  And before they're put on trucks And you probably Don't think much of me Just a lonely pheasant plucker at the pheasant factory   But my life as a mother pheasant plucker is pleasant Just listening to music as I pluck mother pheasants I'm a pleasant pheasant plucker And nobody's ever heard  A pleasant mother pheasant plucker like me say the F-word   And I come from a mother pheasant plucking family From the mother pheasant plucking plantation in Italy And the days were hard And the nights were long So to keep their spirits high they sang this song   They sang our life as a mother pheasant plucker is pleasant Just listening to music as I pluck mother pheasants I'm a pleasant pheasant plucker And nobody's ever heard  A pleasant mother pheasant plucker like me say the F-word   And my mother was a mother pheasant plucker as well And she loved to pluck the mother pheasants yes I could tell And she sang this song as she plucked all day long She never ever ever got the lyrics wrong   She sang my life as a mother pheasant plucker is pleasant Just listening to music as I pluck mother pheasants I'm a pleasant pheasant plucker And nobody's ever heard  A pleasant mother pheasant plucker like me say the F-word   Because my life as a mother pheasant plucker is pleasant Just listening to music as I pluck mother pheasants I'm a pleasant pheasant plucker And nobody's ever heard  A pleasant mother pheasant plucker like me say the F-word   Because my life as a mother pheasant plucker is pleasant Just listening to music as I pluck mother pheasants I'm a pleasant pheasant plucker And nobody's ever heard  A pleasant mother pheasant plucker like me say the F-word   Because my life as a mother pheasant plucker is pleasant Just listening to music as I pluck mother pheasants I'm a pleasant pheasant plucker And nobody's ever heard  A pleasant mother pheasant plucker like me say the F-word   Because my life as a mother pheasant plucker is pleasant Just listening to music as I pluck mother pheasants I'm a pleasant pheasant plucker And nobody's ever heard  A pleasant mother pheasant plucker like me say the F-word!"

Thank to Shmorky and Weebl for making that music video for me. I lost my wife. We've been playing that song on tour. It's been going poorly which is the point. We're headed now to a friend of ours' house. Tour has been amazing. Is it going well?

Katherine: Yeah, it's going great.

Hank: Thank you so much to all the people who have come out to spend time with Hank Green and The Perfect Strangers and Harry and the Potters and Driftless Pony Club and Andrew Huang and Rob Scallon. I'm not sharing a ton of behind the scenes stuff from the tour on this video or any videos because I'm putting it all into the Podcast Because Awesome which is a behind the scenes tour diary of the Tour Because Awesome. If you like podcasts that are, like, twenty to thirty minutes apiece and it's just what life is like on tour for a nerd band.

Final bit of news, the Bat People shirts are only going to be on sale for another, like, twelve or twenty-four hours or so, so if you want to get one of those this is your last chance. And I have arrived at my friend's house. My friend Barack Obama.

Thanks again to Shmorky and Weebl, there's links in the description for them, and thank you to everyone who's come out to see us on tour. It's been a really fantastic time. I've had a great time. It feels like a lot of other people have as well, so thanks. And John, I'll see you on Tuesday.

Last time I was here I was in it. That's weird.
