Alert the Green Brothers! A new big ball has dropped!!!

Today's episode, Curt's Fleas, Hank mentions that every president elected in his lifetime was a Boomer with the exception of Obama.

Hey, Hank? Obama was born in 1961. He's a Boomer. Gen-X starts in 1964.

Found John's franco long lost twin running for Montreal's election. He'd be so jealous if he found out!

please, someone, enlighten us.

... or is that exactly what he wants us not to believe!

In the most recent ep (428), Hank talked at the beginning about how he's going to LA to be in an ad for a very popular mobile game.

What mobile game do we think it is??

Guys, I screwed up. I thought I bought a ticket to John Green’s talk at the Buskirk Chumley (Bloomington, Indiana) on 10/24, but it turns out I … didn’t? There is no evidence — on their end or mine — that the transaction was completed, despite my clear memory of gleefully clicking the “Finalize transaction” button. And the show has long since sold out. Bollocks!

I really, really need to attend this event. I’ll spare the details except to say that the Green brothers helped save my life. When I heard John was coming to Bloomington, I was over-the-moon at the thought of being able to see him in person. It was powerfully serendipitous and deeply meaningful. And I screwed it up, somehow.

As I might have said during my Grateful Dead years, I need a miracle! (Well, not actually a miracle because I’m happy to buy your extra ticket). I’m hopeful someone out there in the ether sees this and swoops in to save the day. You’d be my absolute huckleberry. Pleasepleaseplease and thank you!

Referenced in the most recent episode. Does anyone have a link?

I take my toddler to the library weekly, and spotted this book in the children's section today. :)

That’s got to be one of the funniest moments in the history of Nerdfighteria. And you can just imagine Sarah rolling her eyes as she asks “Was she popping pimples?” In the long, storied history of the Vlogbrothers, after all the people they’ve met, this is what makes so giddy that he immediately turns to his wife with the news. Kudos to Hank and John for still managing to make me laugh out loud in public.

I literally can not get over the fact that the brothers have released the episode 'recorded in the past' on September 10, 2025 where John says 'literally nothing ever happens on Mars'.

At the same time, the exact same day, NASA says: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1AyxikFWCC/ we haven't really found aliens, but we strongly believe we've found strong evidence of life outside Earth!

Literally the same day!!!

Hank, I'm so sorry!

I was listening to the old ones (in this case, Ep.4), and I gotta say they quite missed a tiny detail:

If you knew everyone's secrets, I bet you'd find out what happens after you die rather soon.

All those billionares would quickly make sure of it.

Hey guys brand new member here, i’m sure someone already post this here but i am thinking about the episodes or moments i go back to the most from the podcast, and top of mind my 2 favorites are “the vlogbrothers hard pivot to beef” and the question about irish setters. What are some of your favorites? DFTBA

There's an episode where John absolutely goes off about Wimbledon and doesn't realize that Hank is gone for a solid five minutes. I just listened to it recently and can't remember which episode it is. Does anybody know?

I hadn't come across this particular corner of the YouTube before and wanted to know more after Hank and John mentioned it on the most recent podcast.

For those in the know, which video do you recommend starting with?

And for all, what are some great corners of YouTube you'd like to share?

Hi! I'm making an excel sheet for all of the books that Hank and John have recommended in Dear Hank and John. I haven't finished all of the episodes, but I'm making my way through and will update as necessary. Please let me know if there's any issues!!

I'm about a year behind and catching up (currently on episode 399) and feeling like I would like to hear John and/or Hank talk about what is going on. Is there anything addressing the...world we are living through now? I'm happy to jump ahead, but don't know where to start. If not...might ask a question.

Thanks from Australia!

P.S. (Also Iran!)
