Hank: Good morning, John. It's Fr–ugh!
John: I came in hard.
Hank: Wow.
John: Yeah. Just felt like giving you a hug.
Hank: Uh, love a little roughhouse.
John: We used to roughhouse so much more when we were in our tens.
Hank: We have been making YouTube videos for hundreds of years.
John: Some people say thousands!
Hank: I know for a fact that I have forgotten some of the things that I have made.
John: Sure.
Hank: We're gonna play a game today in which I tell you the title of a video and you tell me whether it's a vlogbrothers video or just something I made up.
John: My expectation is that I'll get 100% of them correct.
Hank: Okay. There's a couple tricky ones. Number one.
John: Yeah.
Hank: “Don't suck on that bone!”
John: That is a vlogbrothers video title.
Hank: That is correct. All right, number two!
John: Number two.
Hank: “The unzipped zipper.”
John: That's a vlogbrothers video.
Hank: Yeah, it is.
John: It is. I vividly remember this because I gave a talk and I crushed. Everybody was being so attentive to me. They were listening so carefully, and at the end of it, I was like, are there any questions? And, like 300 hands went up, and I was like, I'm a genius. And I called on one person, and they were like, “are you aware that your fly is down?” I turned around, I zipped my zipper up, and then I turned back around, and I was like, are there any other questions? Silence.
Hank: And that's basically that whole video. You just watched it. Number three! “Right by chance.”
John: “Right by chance” sounds like a fake vlogbrothers video to me.
Hank: It's a fake vlogbrothers video. It's a William Cowper quote: “A fool must now and then be right, by chance.”
John: All right, I'm gonna get 100%.
Hank: Number four. “Another word for ‘thesaurus’”.
John: That does not sound like a vlogbrothers video.
Hank: It's not, it's a Steven Wright joke!
John: It's a good title.
Hank: It's a good title!
John: Another word for thesaurus. Maybe I'll do that next week.
Hank: Number five, “peanut butter face while discussing Ukraine”.
John: No, surely not. That can't be. No.
Hank: Man, shoot!
John: I couldn't.
Hank: The answer is no, but it's a trick one, because you did do peanut butter face while discussing the Georgia-Russia war!
John: I did peanut butter face? This, this just goes to show you that there are eras on the Internet, because if I did that– I can't do– Oh, my God, did I really do that?
Hank: You did.
John: Oh, my God.
Hank: Number six. “My name is John Green, and I am a nerd.”
John: Yes. Vlogbrothers video.
Hank: That's a vlogbrothers video. Dang it! You are 100%.
John: I'm gonna get 100%!
Hank: All right. Number seven.
John: Yeah.
Hank: “February 27, 2007 - Cinnamon challenge”.
John: Okay, so that's not a vlogbrothers video because we never did the cinnamon challenge.
Hank: How do you know I didn't do it?
John: Because I've seen every one of your videos! One thing that was realistic about it is that we used to title our videos by the date.
Hank: Yeah.
John: Which, like…
Hank: No, this is, this is a modified vlogbrothers video. The actual video was called “February 27, 2007: Horseradish Challenge”.
John: Horseradish challenge!
Hank: Do you remember doing that?
John: No, but I-I… Do you?
Hank: No, I didn't.
John: No, I don't remember doing a horseradish challenge.
Hank: Yeah.
John: First off, the idea that we were, like, into challenges is itself–
Hank: We did– we were doing anything!
John: We did everything!
Hank: We were doing anything we could do.
John: We’ve done everything!
Hank: We've done the entire YouTube. We've done makeup tutorials.
John: We've done a makeup tutorial.
Hank: Yeah.
John: There is not a genre, I don't think, that– I think we've touched, at least touched, every genre.
Hank: I made a prank video.
John: Did you?
Hank: “Eyelash malaria.”
John: That is a vlogbrothers video, or at least, it's related to a vlogbrothers video.
Hank: Yeah, it’s a vlogbrothers video.
John: Yeah, it's about how there's a drug that treats malaria that also lengthens eyelashes. And I made it. And I think I made it, my camera was broken.
Hank: Yes!
John: I made it on my computer.
Hank: Yes, you made it on the iSight camera! You were so mad about it.
John: I was very annoyed.
Hank: I watched this one.
John: That was like–
Hank: Let's see if I can catch you–
John: Fifteen years ago.
Hank: –See if I can catch you, number nine. “A little learning is a dangerous thing.”
John: That does not sound like a vlogbrothers video.
Hank: Frick! It's an Alexander Pope quote.
John: Pretty good title! Alexander Pope knew how to clickbait on YouTube.
Hank: Yeah. Frick, man, you're gonna get them all, because the last one–
John: Yeah.
Hank: –Is “superior fish beings”.
John: Oh, 100% vlogbrothers video.
Hank: Definitely.
John: And a classic vlogbrother video.
Hank: They were all your videos. I made it easier, but I didn't want to tell you that.
John: SUPERIOR FISH BEINGS was yours, right?
Hank: No, because I made a video about it, and then you–
John: And then I replied, “superior fish beings”. Cause I just thought, like, the idea that you thought in the future there would be superior fish beings? Like, that was so good, and you didn't title it "superior fish beings"! What a thing that we've–
Hank: I don't want to spend too much time looking backward because then it feels like we, like, finished.
John: Yeah, I don't want to feel too much like a nostalgia act.
Hank: Yeah.
John: Although, look, eventually you become a nostalgia act.
Hank: It's just another genre of YouTube.
John: That's a great point. We have to enter our nostalgic act genre at some point. I also don't want to spend too much time looking back. I think there's lots to look forward to on vlogbrothers. But we do have 18 years of history together, and that's not for nothing.
Hank: John. See you now.
John: And on Tuesday.
John: I came in hard.
Hank: Wow.
John: Yeah. Just felt like giving you a hug.
Hank: Uh, love a little roughhouse.
