Some Mind-Bending Earth GIFs

http://earthengine.google.org/#timela...

Google's new Earth Engine, powered by NASA's landsat satellites, gives a time lapse view of (pretty much) every land surface on earth over the last 25 years. The view is amazing, and inspiring, and at times terrifying.

It can be hard to understand the scale here, but…

17 Rants in 4 Minutes

In which Hank rants about seventeen different things that bug him. To be clear, this is not healthy and I kinda wish I hadn't done it because I was stressed out for the whole day after I filmed it. But, yeah, this stuff seriously annoys me. The rants are as follows:

1. American Cheese is not Cheese

2. 90% Fat Free means 10% Fat

3. Everything is…

Animals Invade Sporting Events: A Critical Analysis

In which John discusses adorable animals interrupting sporting events, including such hits as Dog Pooping on Baseball Field, Goalkeeper Dog Catcher Fail, Pine Martin Invades Swiss Soccer Match, Drug Dog Wants to Play, Anfield Cat, and Squirrel at the US Open. It's kind of a weird video.

Cat GIF Critique

In which Hank tries his hand at being a critic of the CAT GIF genre, a job that would require looking at cute things and being slightly witty. And while that might, at first, seem like a dream job, in fact, the best job for me is one where I get to do something new every day.

Thanks to all of the cats in this video, and to the people who filmed them...I would totally…

DOCTOR GREEN

In which John makes a video about his forthcoming entrance into the ranks of doctors. And visits the dentist.

On Sexual Orientation, with Hannah, Ze, Tyler, and Meg

When I was growing up, the stigma surrounding homosexuality was so severe (not in my household, but in the broader culture) that I feared I was gay because of tiny little signs that actually had very little (or nothing) to do with sexuality (like enjoying the music of the Village People). That confusion was terrifying to me because this stuff just wasn't talked about…

North Korea: Explained

Is North Korea going to bomb us? Is North Korea a Threat? Is North Korea Communist? Why does North Korea Hate us?

These (according to my extremely imprecise research) are the most common questions people in the world have about North Korea...I have done my best to answer these questions using mostly knowledge that I stole from a variety of sources around the internet…

How Much is a Human Life Worth?

John on the Late Late Show: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IwjjWh...

Once when I like 10 years old, I was sitting in a school auditorium...I looked at all the people, and the (required) fire exits in the room. And I thought to myself that there weren't enough doors to save everyone in every situation. In order to do…

Ads Work...but for Whom?

In which John takes an unexpected visit to the gray speckled walls of America's airports to mull the role that advertising plays in shaping (and funding) online video content, at times incentivizing the popular over the significant.

Also I just had dental surgery, so I'm in a great mood.
