I feel that it is important to state for the record that a proper Chip Butty sandwich tastes and smells nothing like the horrors that Hank concocted. We must not blame the English for this monstrosity. We place the blame where it lies: With Hank. -John

I appreciate that, at the end, John states that he's going to "hang out with (Hank's) son." Not just because it's a wonderful representation of good uncling (as an uncle myself, I'm an avid fan of other uncles who try their best), but also because it subtly implies that Hank is not invited, which is also an excellent representation of great brothering.

[@godeatgodworlds]

As a New Orleanian, I'd like to relate the story of the French Fry Po-boy, which is essentially a Chip Butty on "French" bread. I put "French" in quotations because having been to both France and Spain, I can attest that New Orleans-style French Bread is actually Spanish Bread. Many things in New Orleans are pretending to be French, when they are actually Spanish, Italian, African, or Choctaw, a sign that while French colonialism leaves behind fewer actual cultural remnants than others, it always, always leaves behind the "hide you aren't French"-habits formed under French cultural elitism. But I digress. The Spanish bread sandwich known as the Po-boy, originally Poor Boy, has its origins during a street car (that's trolly to yankees) worker strike circa the turn of the 20th Century. To help the workers get through the long day of picketing, the restaurant nearby put their two cheapest items together: french fries and french bread. While I'm sure it was butter or mayo moistening most of those original poor boy sandwiches, my grandfather always had his with butter and ketchup and he's the one who introduced me to them, so I say this is a direct cousin to the Chip Butty. Currently anyone who enjoys the sandwich enjoys it with Roast Beef Debris (brown roast beef gravy, debris because there is absolutely no care paid to how much roast beef ends up on your sandwich with it) and cheese, most likely cheddar, making it also a cousin of another French colonial invention, the Quebecois poutine. This leads me to believe there may have been an Acadian connection, either in simple preference for potatoes on bread, or some sort of Chip Butty-like precursor from the Old Country that enabled the invention of the french fry sandwich New Orleans-style. (I take my po-boy the debris and cheddar way, with some hot sauce, pickles, and a Barq's Root Beer. )

[@emilysmith2965]

This is such a great summary of the New Orleans vibe in general. I would like to add one thing: while the NOPD is woefully ineffective at lowering the murder rate, they do have a Department of Parades. If you pay them like $300 they will send a 15-piece marching band to follow you around for the day. Also you could get a fully alcoholic daiquiri through a drive-thru window until the late ‘90s. Just New Orleans things

As a British person I'm incredibly insulted by this!

What I like about this is that John’s reaction to the sandwich is the same as every Brit watching. Get one from a greasy spoon when you’re next going to Plough Lane / otherwise over here. Those chips were wrong, the sauce was wrong and possibly even the bread. Get a good one some time!

I love the plot arc between this video and the last one. It's like I'm right there with you, trying a chip butt.

I definitely have a spot on my bookshelf right next to Anthropocene Reviewed now specifically for Heavy on the Itis.

Aah, it’s lovely to see you both. I’ve been around these here internet parts specifically for maybe 9 years when I first found you, we’re a similar age, it’s nice. I remember my dad being so happy when he introduced me to the good old chip butty. He was from the East End of London which may or may not have any connection with them. Such a brotherly moment, ‘you held it close to my face on purpose’ 😁

I did not expect to have two of my favourite things, F1 and vlogbrothers, combined today

[@gabeharris]

ME EITHER! i have a feeling john is secretly a fan, considering his knowledge and that he’s into indycar.

[@jacko666]

OMG THE VLOG BROS TRYING AND TALKING ABOUT TWO THINGS I LOVE: chip butties and F1!! Haaaaaaaaaa I love this video

I'm so happy Hank noticed and mentioned the hair. I needed that.

[@Nate.mp4]

The hair sitting in the sandwich at the beginning really sells it

I had a biology teacher named Dr Harm. I'm glad he took up teaching instead of caring for people, but he was also an adequate teacher.

i did not expect F1 talk but I'm happy now

[@Andythespacekid]

I can say this in a vlogbrothers now “Pronto Sebastian S🅱️innala” *f1 theme plays*

I loved the foreshadowing of seeing the hair on the sandwich at 0:08 and having Hank find it later on

You should try the Irish alternative: the Crisp Sandwich(TM). You take what we call crisps and what you in the USofA call 'chips' and put them inside heavily buttered slices of bread. The best part is when you finish the assembly and squash the sandwich down to break the crisps up. Best flavours of crisps/chips for this are a) cheese and onion (standard) or b) salt and vinegar (also acceptable, and even preferred by some).

When you watch the video and see the hair, then Hank finds the hair, very satisfying.

the Sibling Energy in this video is The Best.

I had a doctor called Dr. Becker. Was as pleasant as the TV one as well, but also knew that despite that, he did actually care. Just like the TV version.
