That's why they do it. As a person who is occasionally roasted by my friends and coworkers, it's an affectionate thing. I often give it back too.

That is what i've heard as a tip as well. Either that or in passing. And on things they can choose themselves. The hairstyle, the clothes, the vibe and style etc.

[@Sleve-McDichael]

It's leaving immediately but it's also complimenting something that was their choice. Like their outfit or their hair, if it's obviously dyed or cut/styled, not their eyes or lips or any other part of their body!

[@inkterp5322]

​@@Sleve-McDichael i feel like personally eyes maybe are an exception? but def has the potential to come off more as a flirtation/awkward just because it's rarer for that to be said as a compliment. like "oh by the way your eye color is really beautiful!" i guess? or even better is you could connect it with their outfit like "oh that shirt really goes well with your eyes / makes them pop, nice outfit!" its for sure all about how you say it though lmao

[@finpin2622]

Yeah, or a quick in-passing compliment is always nice. Anything so you know it wasn’t motivated for personal gain, and is simply a stand-alone compliment without obligations attached!

Registered Dietitian here to debunk the brown rice debate!! The issue with brown rice is that it contains phytic acid (and lectins), an antinutrient. It makes it more difficult for your body to digest and also absorb minerals like zinc and iron. But, for most people, the nutrients brown rice offers far outweigh the absorption issues. Also, testing has shown that if you soak your brown rice for any extended period of time, then rinse before cooking, it removes the phytic acid. This has been tested up to 24 hours, which showed over a 90% reduction in the total amount of phytic acid.

[@oofbih6397]

The expert panel concluded that the risk of exposure and associated health condition(s) increases proportionally with consumption and depends on the type of rice consumed.14 Jul 2023" that's probably what Amanda was talking about

[@uuh4yj43]

someone else claiming to be a dietitian said it was actually that it had a substance that interfered with zinc absorbtion and can be mitigated by soaking it. ita probably pretty easy to find the comment and check it.

[@mayakadan5629]

@@uuh4yj43 it could be arsenal/arsen (I’m not sure about the English term), if I remember correctly soaking the rice in clean water helps to remove a good amount of it. The reason rice is infused with arsenal is because in the 70s it was used as a pesticide in the water, and only years Lee discovered that it’s very toxic and that the rice absorbed it because rice grows IN the water. When you remove the outer layer of the rice you remove most of the arsen/arsenal, but also most of the fiber and vitamins, which is what makes brown rice better then white rice. So eat white rice to avoid arsen and get your fiber from a less toxic source.

It's so funny watching this after watching the other podcasts Hank was on in LA. The contrast of research between Collin and Samir reading his 2002 thesis and 1990 essay on the future, and then Smosh where the entirety of research seems to consist of, "we watched some of your TikToks and I've seen your name on a book I think".

Shayne is equally amazed and jealous of Hank’s mindset. I want to hug them both 47:40

I have to admit I’d never heard of Hank Green before this video. And I must say he did NOT disappoint!! I did NOT want it to end!! I love the humor and intellect in this video from everyone! Now I’m about to plunge down the Hank Green rabbit hole!! Thanks guys!! 😊

Hank motorboating his squishy thought clouds will stick with me for a long time.

[@annikaliz]

I swear to god if they do a Reddit episode with him this week I’ll be so happy

[@chloesimpson2438]

I love Hank. He got diagnosed around the same time as me with Hodgkin’s lymphoma. It was nice to watch a creator who knew what I was going through💜

[@mklaebel]

Loved this episode. As a writer who does not have a mind's eye (aphantasia), its comforting to know John doesn't have one, either. That said, I would be lost without my inner monologue. I'm definitely going to have to watch again to fully absorb everything Hank discussed. For now, off to watch ze frank talk about perfectionism.

[@dangerousreaper]

34:15 as someone who has aphantasia, Amanda is absolutely right since I've never once thought about casting/how scenes play out in books. It's why I'm so lenient on adaptations since it's the only way I can even see something I read pictured 🙃

[@whiplashc.73]

Ludwig: you should come to LA for The Yard Hank: LA? Podcasts? Say less

[@Owleyearts]

Hank Green changing Shayne’s whole life

[@play-fool]

okay Hank warming up to Shayne by the end was so cute help

[@twoac]

Love the ze frank shoutout. I watched the show with ze frank as it was coming out. I love that it's still maintained online on youtube as a vlogbrothers playlist.

[@wigglyennui]

Omg it is???

[@twoac]

@wigglyennui yep! Search "ze frank - the show" and it should be a list with 245 videos.

[@mrknittle532]

I have been a fan of Ze Frank's True Animal Facts for awhile. I went back and searched for the video Hank was talking about, only to discover a very young Hank in one of Ze's videos from 2012...lol.

[@koguma8823]

"you look so nice" what a way to start the podcast. hank you absolute gentleman

[@queenQueso1]

well... that was wonderful. I love that Hank still had that in his mind of "I gotta make Shayne feel better"

[@redheadedbint]

I never got someone as much as I get Hank. He's nuts in the best way and utterly chaotic, and I feel so seen 😂 "I don't exist in the physical realm most of the time" Same dude, same.

[@benjagem5195]

completely agree with Hank on cold food, warm food DOES have too much flavour

[@HeyItsEmilyLove]

Hank Green is such a wholesome king. I just adore him

[@chasedunagan]

Amanda: "Ok, I know you're a science wiz.... but get off my back!" lol too funny

[@JS-1222]

I’m 15 minutes into the episode and Amanda is killing it bro! It’s like she’s already besties with motherfucking Hank Green! I love it! ❤

[@shmoopydarling]

Shayne I think growing your hair out to its floppy length is the move!! You could wear baseball caps again and you’d no longer be roasted by science celebrities

[@stephenhowatt5453]

Loved this episode and it has had a really positive impact on me. I have been in such a negative headspace lately about climate change and the state of humanity lately and Smosh has been my escape from that for the last while. Something about how Hank Green calmly and positively reminded us that good news is incremental and bad news gets noticed/amplified with the familiar voices of Amanda and Shayne has just been exactly what I needed to hear at this time. Definitely going to continue listening to SmoshMouth and Hank's podcast.

[@SULightPeak]

this is my new favorite episode of this podcast. actually hank's guest appearance is my favorite episode of every podcast. love this man to death.

[@patricknice8652]

A full hour of Hank just being absolutely enamored by Amanda

[@Anna-B]

I’m here for another stop on Hanks grand LA tour 😂

[@pinkster8389]

Anyone else notice the white board/poster on the wall behind shayne? You can only read some of it but I wanna say it’s a list of their 2024 predictions they made
