October 11, 2024 - Goofing off with John (a Vlogbrothers Video)

[@rjamylle]

It's good to see Hank and John, but it's even better to see them together

[@Clynikal]

And John laughing

[@parkerbond9400]

Proof that they're actually different people!

[@WiseGuy57]

shame Dave couldn't make it

[@Amanda2336]

​@@WiseGuy57 poor Dave. Always left out

[@mwagaha3343]

How did you do that

[@mariah9824]

This video makes me want to pause my life for ~2 weeks and watch every single vlogbrothers video in order so I'm aware of all lore ever

[@Maistra13]

I am on this journey and it's worth it, do itttt

[@kadanseward3022]

It’s so good. I’ve watched all of them up until I was a regular viewer, and it didn’t even take that long. Only about a month and a half of watching a couple hours a day in college

[@Calkholmes]

Oh wow, in 2009 I watched the whole backlog during the school summer holidays to catch up and I thought it was a lot of videos back then!! I felt so behind and out of the loop!

[@triciac.5078]

I’ve only found this channel during Covid, that’s a LOT of videos to watch. I need crochet a blanket I’m thinking….

[@michdelish]

It took me two weeks to catch them all up in 2011. Godspeed.

[@ruthmorrison163]

My favorite part of the horseradish challenge was the couple who made a response video roasting John for eating watered-down horseradish mayo "intended for gentiles and young children."

[@Silas_MN]

this is my favorite comment on this video

[@sarar4901]

Well, he is definitely at least one of those things.

[@minimarker3]

I remember being disappointed he didn't have fresh horseradish root to eat, so I'm glad I wasn't alone!

[@jamesdriscoll_tmp1515]

I piled up some st Helen's ash and my dad planted a horseradish in it. Every now and then we would dig up a chunk and eat it. I remember a lot of bugs eating it too.

[@michaele1654]

As a Jewish person of mixed Ukrainian and Galilean descent, I can confirm that this couple was correct. Horseradish must be spicy, unless you are either a toddler or some white bread milquetoast neutral person who thinks boiled potatoes are too spicy. When I'm eating my gefilte fish after the seder, I better get some strong horseradish, none of that weak stuff.

[@carolprince16]

I saw the title and then did a double-take when I saw it was just uploaded. The whole energy in this video made me emotional - KZbin may have changed a lot, but opening a vlogbrothers video will always feel like slipping under your favourite blanket with a nice hot drink.

[@Homegrown_Hillary]

SAME! Something about the tan paneled walls and the arrangement made me think it was an abundance of Katherines tour or something 😂

[@grilodonilo621]

same here!

[@Grrreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeew]

Nothing changes.

[@sebastianoleary2743]

It's something about the way John is acting, this manic, overconfident energy is something I'd expect from him 5-10 years ago, so I'm glad he still has the capacity for that in him these days.

[@johncarpe]

As a queer person from Tallahassee, I am VERY envious of Hank’s shirt and need to know where it was acquired.

[@vlogbrothers]

It was given to me by a friend from Tallahassee!

[@nicklas7377]

I assumed it was merch from drive away dolls, it was the only explanation I had for a shirt that says Tallahassee in rainbow color.

[@jjunior48]

i just google image searched for the shirt Hanks friend must’ve actually just made that for him or his friend knows a really cool queer shop in Tallahassee

[@ProminentCorpse]

@jjunior48 having lived in Tallahassee in the early 2010s, if there's even one queer shop in that town today something has gone horribly right in the last decade.

[@lashadi1445]

Following for more info from said friend ❤

[@Ariel_thenotsolittlemermaid]

Idk what's funnier, the beginning being the most brotherly thing ever withthe tackle, or Hank being a full grown adult who still says 'frick' and 'shoot'

[@sarar4901]

He has a young child, so. 😂

[@jasminegates9314]

Oh Hank 100% curses. Just not on vlog brothers lol

[@cooldude-qz1gf]

Bro is forgetting that this is a video on KZbin and the censoring is for monetization

[@getheidea]

@@jasminegates9314 he saves that for guest appearances on Dimension 20 and on various LA-area podcasts lol

[@sonny19931]

​@@jasminegates9314Yes - the f bombs are a sure sign you clicked on a "hankschannel" video instead of vlogbrothers lol

[@calvinball1]

VlogBrothers -nostalgia act -current and relevant -makes me excited about the future Quite an awesome thing

[@Idefilms]

+++ phenomenal comment

[@Shrooblord]

One might say, it's an absolutely remarkable thing

[@secretforreddit]

@@Shrooblord Beat me to it!

[@kunai92]

I was positive "Another Word for Thesaurus" was a title of one of John's videos. Even after finding out it isn't, I'm only 50% convinced.

[@HarshitWise]

Brothers sometime change titles after a few minutes/hours for algorithm purpose. It might very well would have been a vlogbrothers video.

[@TheProfessor-o2g]

I love that these big goofy brothers say, "We've had, like 18 years together" like they aren't, you know, big goofy brothers. One of you have had your WHOLE LIFE with the other, and the older had the BEST of his life with the younger.

[@HarshitWise]

They were not really close. The point of the project Brotherhood 2.0 was to bring them closer.

[@IrisGlowingBlue]

18 years together professionally! The reast mostly unprofessionally p:

[@cycloneblaze]

I was rooting hard for John, you love to see the completely well-placed confidence

[@bluetoes591]

I also got all of these questions right, but John's recall of the details of 17 year old videos is impressive.

[@runningcow]

Then you are also impressive! But it sounds like he would have missed the peanut butter face one if Hank hadn't changed the country being discussed, so perhaps you're more impressive.

[@bluetoes591]

@@runningcow But he was able to recall specific details about filming them and their content, which in most cases I couldn't remember anything about them.

[@avakining]

French the llama! This video really felt like a classic one. Truly a great video - banter, vlogbrothers history, and a reunion video!

[@magicoA]

Hank: I don't remember all the videos I did John: I DO!

[@clairemckinley691]

Eagerly awaiting ‘Another word for thesaurus’ next week!

[@HarshitWise]

Sorry, did I miss a joke?

[@lucase.2546]

@@HarshitWiseThat was one of the fake titles Hank made up in the video, but the commenter is saying it’s so realistic/good that no doubt we might see it as a real video title next week heh

[@billyalarie929]

i am literally shaken to my CORE that john does not remember doing peanut butter face!!!!! that's like a legendary stunt John did!

[@Fortuna808]

And didn't he do it more than once?

[@ebonyl9312]

I think he remembers doing peanut butter face but doesn't expect he would have done it whilst discussing global politics... because now he would probably find that insensitive.

[@cassandramn]

As a longtime nerdfighter, this was a fun walk down memory lane

[@tomrogue13]

They got me on peanut butter face!

[@untappedinkwell]

[@mirnder]

[@Seeingteacupsindragons]

John's smile and laughter when he's with his brother is always much brighter than in solo videos.

[@cheshirecat512]

I love a channel that comes to me in eras almost as much as a video in parts

[@vigilantcosmicpenguin8721]

Or a human in multitudes

[@TheArtsyTuber]

I know for a fact that when i get sick, i still call it ‘tiny chickens disease ‘

[@nerdfighter42]

Dude same, and when the weather gets hot, you know what song gets stuck in my head.

[@MinurielLai]

newer nerdfighter here, what's the tiny chicken disease? lmao /pos

[@Quintinia]

I can't find the video but way back in like 2008 John had a head cold and described it as feeling like a bunch of tiny chickens were pecking at his brain

[@Quintinia]

@MinurielLai

[@TheArtsyTuber]

@@Quintinia it was Hank. He was at the Detroit Auto Show and came into contact with a chicken and it laid its tiny chicken eggs in his brain giving him Tiny chicken disease Mentioned again in the Anglerfish video he did for Masters of Song Fu

You guys are the superior fish beings

[@dancole2994]

Intellectual sushi... with legs and stuff.

[@vigilantcosmicpenguin8721]

Stephen Jay Gould would agree.

[@ThisIsReMarkable]

I'm impressed that John got them all but not surprised. DFTBA!

[@kellymalone947]

I love how happy you guys look together here :) tackle hugs FTW

[@AnnaMayKremer]

I rewatched the tackle hug twice because it made me laugh😂

[@chrisfrancis8822]

October 11, 2024 is our first child’s birthday! What a treat after my wife and I have watched you guys since the beginning.

[@shaiannwyatt7749]

Very proud of myself for getting 100% since like John, I've seen all the videos. I even went "he DID do peanut butter face, but that was a different conflict"

[@Warrrkotka]

Same russia different country 😢

[@TipperProject]

love the title so much

[@VideoNozoki]

I didn't even realize they did that until I saw this comment. Nice catch.

[@GeoffreyCavalier]

"...because I've seen everyone of your videos!" Same.

[@HarshitWise]

This is data discrepancy.

[@eleanorlavish1519]

Look, Bon Jovi is still a great band to see live and still put out new music, but also they've been a nostalgia act for a long, long time. You're the Bon Jovi of KZbin and that is great!

[@realjettlag]

This is perfect. 😙👌

[@KatieRomrell]

Next quiz: Give a vlogbrothers video title and guess who's video it was. 😂

[@0justBETHANY]

I remember the peanut butter face John! That was a wild time for sure

[@oatsinthewaves]

Same!! I think, partly, because I found it so disgusting. It’s wild to me that John has no memory of it

[@AndreaCrisp]

"Another Genre of KZbin" sounds like a good video title! Thank you for the memories and sibling silliness.

[@moonbunny42]

The date in the video title is a nice touch

[@nandini1740]

THIS IS THE BEST START TO A VLOGBROTHERS VIDEO E V E R

[@PercivalDunlop]

The vibe in this vid is perfect!

I for one am definitely looking forward to the vlogbrothers nostalgia act era, where we go back to the beginning.

[@abyssaljuggler]

i just realised i don't think i've ever clicked off a vlogbrothers video due to disinterest... well done team. Been here for ~10 years

[@nojerama788]

My god this video catapulted me back a decade, I started watching in 2009 and all your videos are hugely comforting for me

[@chelseababylove4821]

I forgot you used to date your videos but seeing the date in the title filled me with so much nostalgia it was crazy.

[@kimhering3017]

2:24 John did the cinnamon challenge in a Crash Course video tho!

[@_Jude-St.-Francis_]

I love watching y'all videos so much, it's almost a reason to keep going. Always wishing the best for y'all

[@Kazemba]

That tackle hug brought me back to the very beginning of Dan and Phil with a visceral slam of nostalgia. I'm so glad it was a nostalgia video so I didn't have to leave that feeling behind right away.

[@Bassitude723]

There are few things that give me as big of a dopamine hit as seeing Hank and John interacting in a video. Love you guys

[@VariTimo]

Makes me sooo happy that this videos has the date in the title!

Good morning everyone

[@skylerwitherspoon]

I love reunion videos!! 🥹

[@elylozada9576]

every time!

[@scottieapplseed]

The closer at the end is just genuine and precious.

[@OrinPosner]

This video title feels really special to me in particular because October 11th is the day when I first discovered Brotherhood 2.0! I remember because as I was starting to watch the backlog of videos (on the Brotherhood 2.0 website lol), a new video popped up and it was Hank's video about national coming out day, which is Oct. 11.

[@ericclute5]

Seeing you two together is just so wholesome!

[@johnchessant3012]

love this

[@dumarae]

this video made me giggle, i appreciate the nostalgia vlog. impressed but not surprised john got them all correct.

[@robcol125]

I loved some of the memories this brought up. I love being a part of this community and can't wait for what the future brings. I started watching when I was in school and now I'm in a place where I was able to pledge to the Book of Good Times Kickstarter. We are all growing up together and I'm so happy to be a part of it. DFTBA!

[@finecallmejane]

There's something so wonderful about this and the fact that John really did get it.

[@jennindeed5792]

This brought me SO MUCH JOY

[@supercussion6590]

These guys are wholesome legends

[@Ms.Anonymous]

0:02 Hank's face is priceless 😂😂😂 You don't know how many times I rewatched that beginning

[@EvaHoHoHo]

I've been here for most of these so this video made me feel big feelings about the passage of time

[@swinkscalibur8506]

The parasocial effect is strong with this video. I feel so attached to Hank and John, like we are old friends. Fun to watch these two guys I like and respect so much.

[@risxra]

This made me realize how old of a Nerdfighter I am (been here since early 2011). Crazy to think I’ve spent half my life watching you guys.

[@xerk2945]

I've been around since Accio Deathly Hallows made it to the front page of KZbin. I was loosely an adult when that happened and it regularly reminds me that I am in fact, 507 years old. We should have an elder nightfighter secret handshake.

[@HeidiJeanTwin]

That was so fun! Very impressed by your memory John. Have fun together!

[@General12th]

Hi Hank! Hi John! Here's to another thousand years of vlogbrothers!

[@PTNLemay]

This is so wholesome for some reason

[@LanceCorporalKitty]

I love it when you guys make videos together!

[@irisollier770]

I can’t believe I’ve been watching you guys for so long- I look forward to having this kind of back catalogue with my collaborators today ❤️❤️❤️❤️

I love these two brothers like I love my own family.

Awww this video was so fun. It is much more daunting to do a full vlogbrothers watch through now, but if anyone wants to try, there are some absolute bangers in vlogbrothers' history!

[@MegaMeg117]

The giggles and smiles between you two are an amazing example of strong sibling bonds! Makes me miss my brothers (hi Bob!)

[@bethypeffy]

Happy Friday everyone! 🎉

[@sguttag]

I really enjoyed this one. And John gets an A+.

[@organicgrains]

Nostalgia acts can happen throughout the lifetime of an entity. Sometimes we can look back on what we've done, without compromising on the future of what we will do. So many excellent year behind us, and so many excellent years to come.

Still can't get over how awesome this is!

[@EmilyJelassi]

It's always good to see Hank and John together 😊❤

What a NICE video! Seeing this just makes me feel... happy. (Thanks for making this.) [I'm really surprised John got 100%. To miss a couple would be understandable. Wow, you know your stuff, John! Well done.]

[@AbbreviatedReviews]

2,200 videos and he didn't miss any of them.

Finally saw "turtles all the way" on sleep deprived flight to Toronto and was shocked/delighted by Johns cameo 😂

[@audreybray1149]

I’ve read every one of both of your books and yet never been as impressed as I am right now

[@joshgislason7506]

A journal is your past self communicating with your present self. It can be nostalgia, but it also always more. The past videos can be nostalgic, but they are also enlightening about how the world and Internet has changed and a great reminder that it will change.

[@Respectable_Username]

First off, amazing work John for getting 100%! Even with the trick ones like peanut butter face which I remembered but definitely _way_ before current conflict in Ukraine

[@bradleysampson8230]

Great video. Looking forward to the thesaurus one as well.

[@langsense]

Hey, i got 10/10 too! Yes!

[@Radm0bile]

My Pizzamas gear arrived today and it is all fantastic. Also, the Pizza Hoodies are enormous!

[@hannahallbrooke1424]

i enjoy John's confidence that he was going to get them all right

[@Foundinwonderland]

Yet another category the Green brothers excel at - comfort videos, and seeing you together is like hanging out with family (that I actually like)

[@グーブラ]

I've been watching every single video from the beginning, I've made it to 2012 so far. It is the most fun I've had on KZbin in ages

[@Timmie1995]

In late 2012 to halfway 2013, I watched every Vlogbrothers video before watching the new ones. (Imagine doing that now...) Peanut butter face (while discussing the Georgia-Russia war) was probably the video that got me hooked, I vividly remember fragments of it. The search for January 2nd, 2007, was also a chore at the time. And somewhere in January or February 2007 one of you drank some weird gross strawberry liquor, that's up there too somehow. Too many amazing moments!

[@finneganjohn3249]

Reunion videos are the best

[@123amsterdan456]

I love you guys - thanks for the companionship over the years; You can't be a nostalgia act as you both still "got it" hard. You know a lot about the times we live in and are very light and funny about stuff It makes life easier having your videos around. Thank you again.

[@dragonharris5465]

I love the goofing off vids

[@insectbah]

What a delightful way to spend a few minutes :)

[@Walderro]

Love this Boxcar Children of a KZbin channel, and I can't wait to see how far from the original premise we get
