John and Hank on NPR Today!

[StaleMilk12]

This is going to sound crazy awesome and no one is going to believe me, but I heard the interview in 2008 before I knew about you guys, and now I went and looked for it and realized I knew you before I knew you. That's too jokes to be true. :D

[Tobiscuits]

that microphone he's using is an RE-20

[tati13221]

@Tobiscuits r u a techno nerd

[Tobiscuits]

@tati13221 I just know about microphones... :)

[Allyscribit]

If anyone else is still catching up like me, you can still watch the NPR video by going to the following link (it won't let me post it in one go, but you can attach what's below to the main NPR website.

[VolunteerNerdfighter]

Of course Hank and John are on NPR. Why, you ask?

Well, I mean, NPR does stand for Nerdfighter Public Radio right?

It doesn't? It totally should. And also just star them, all the time.

[kikiann11]

NPR is how I indicate fame.

[INTPTT]

Aw, at the very end I heard a kitty!

[babbfamilyidaho]

I just finished listening to the npr episode! Man how I love NPR!

[EmmyBea]

Just went to the site and watched it (again).

"It's true but it's GROSS!" -John

[crogger321]

I love All Things Considered! I think it is my favorite show on NPR!

[uiruu]

@KlarkOverlord the NPR website.

[uiruu]

I knew that you were there. The title.

[Lauraa4023]

Did I hear cameo at the end...?

[Azami4117]

where is the clip of the interview?!?!?! i can't find it on the npr website!! HELP!!!

[potatonoid610]

lolz...sidebar

[ClocksInMyPlace]

John and Hank green have really inspired me. I think I'm going to keep more in contact with my siblings from now on.

I just listened to the radio interview. John saying they never were sentimental and saying things like "I love you" is untrue! They might not have said "I love you" literally, but they've both said really sweet things about each other to each other.

[Metzgirl]

I saw this video at 4:59PM on Sunday, Dec. 19th and got all excited before I realized it was from 2008, not 2010

[SirTeeGeeEss]

@Lulu5046 Now over 400,000!

[EllipsisStudios]

I always though that the nerd version of being knighted was, well, BEING KNIGHTED...

but still, NPR is awesome.

[vampirez103]

"and oh hello john! You're in my ears..." xDD

[moodykate09]

it's cool that npr archives their All Things Considered seemingly forever... :)

[eragonlover1]

I just listened to it: awesome!

Taking the Hobbits To Isenguard is a pretty sweet song. Whenever I watch The Two Towers, I always rewind and play that clip a few times just to be funny.

[beneaththesun14]

haha tomorrow actually is sunday..

[Mariswimmer7]

At first I thought it was a recording studio...then you started talking to John and I knew it was a radio station :D

[LoveShiaGDSN]

I just went and listened to it. and It was awesome.

It's true but it's GROSE!

xD

[HopeFlies96]

aww cameo!!

[Toastisntsquare]

5 o'clock in the afternoon? Not evening?

[SimplyPlanned]

The story ID is 18272166 on the NPR site, in case you guys missed it...

[XHitThePanicButtonX]

:O

I LOVE ALL THINGS CONSIDERED! :D

in fact i think I'm the only 13-14-in-three-and-a-half-week­s girl who likes all things considered ^_^

[proXstalker]

Wow... random LotR moment at 2:32 ... I love you guys. =)

[logician15]

NPR for the win!! All Things Considered is wonderful, I need to go look up the interview in the archives.

[vcav22]

how come we see SO much of williy but we don't get any cameos of cameo?

[hi1235678910]

I love that intro

[ShineYourLight18]

....dang, i missed it. haha =]

[senorsqueakydesk]

That's cool that you guys were on NPR. That really is like the nerd version of being knighted.

[DittoFreak]

Comment 259:

I heard Cameo meow about a second before the end!!!!!!!!!!

[BeAlive06]

This was a year ago today!

If I'd told you that a year from that day there'd be an incredibly historic inauguration, would you have thought much of it?

I'll bet NPR did.

[hyenadude]

I just went and listened to the NPR piece and the commercial at the beginning was for the Chevy Equinox

Very selective advertising or really weird coincidence?

[TheFallenWind]

Aww, I liked the cheesy and sentimental ending.

[GeeWilakers]

I'm the 30,000nth viewer!!!!!!!!

[speede179]

Aww...I liked that interview.

[espifreak]

So this is what you were doing on my birthday while I was busy being oblivious to you.

[Jonnygasms]

I love all things considered!

[robinheil]

Did he ever reveal the contents of the tritube or whatever?

[air1cat]

yeah he did in one of the videos. It has tritube in the title so just search that in their videos thingyyy.

[hannahdemarco]

I love NPR and def. All things Considered.... and This American Life, and Fair Game!!!

[Snoozer989]

lol yup there was definetly a cat there! I heard it too! lol

[foreverlost15]

Do you have a cat? I swear I heard one in the background right as the video ended...

[ishallcallyounarfba]

yeah. He does. Her name is Cameo. She's pretty cute, but I'm not much of a cat fan.

[7DayTripper7]

and Cameo makes lots of Cameos in the videos...

puns? anyone? um... hehe. :)

[crazycaryl15]

Listening to radio show right now...

probably the only time I'll tune in.

[lildude2k7]

what does dboa or what ever it's called =/

[kaisershin]

DFTBA = Don't Forget To Be Awesome.

[showersinger34]

haha. all things considered. my mom was listening to it in the car a few years ago and it was really depressing, and ever since i've called it "too many things considered." yeah, i come from an extended family of nerds/nerdfighters.

[kiyoshi85]

You have to go to the link aND THEN TYPE "jan 20 " INTO THE SEARCH TAB.

[StripedRedScarves]

[hex147]

THAT'S what it was! I only recognized Inuyasha! Go nerds! lol...Though I perfer Neon Genesis Evangelion...

[8amanime2]

[almalinda06]

OMG ARE YOU SERIOUS!??! I go MIA on youtube for a month and I miss THIS?! I LOVE NPR!

NPR + Brotherhood2.0 = GOD

*goes off to cry*

i wonder if it's on the website...

[LilShellabis]

If you go to the link that he posted and type in hank green... or something to do with brotherhood, it will pop up. Very good interview

[almalinda06]

[nelson1tom]

[musicgirl707]

[JustHolly7]

I think its totally jokes!

[JustHolly7]

The day that it came out

was my birthday!!!!!!

[channeIreview]

When do you guys get to be on WaitWait in the not my job portion

[siobhanolivia]

i love nerds.

[098anne]

hee! Hi to your kitty meow!

I was on my way home from work and caught you guys on the show..what a fun surprise! I actually giggled. Since I've been nursing my computer back to health for 3 frickin' weeks and without my main source of external awesome...it was a sorely needed infusion.

Yea Hank and John!

[audiovisual89]

ah, i see it was NPR's doing. It helps to listen to the whole interview BEFORE commenting, doesn't it? You guys were great!

[audiovisual89]

Hey Hank--what was up with the Gnarls Barkley in the background of the first little bit of NPR?

[audiovisual89]

NPR is AWESOME.

[poodle649]

Very nicely combed hair today, Hank! And I loved the meow at the end of the video. :)

[heather23renae]

...puppy sized elephants"

*silence*

Meow!

[brezzyday]

you guys rock dont quit ever please

if tere was a rating between 1 and 100 you guys would get a 100

[gidgetblogs]

NERDFIGHTER goes SERIUS RADIO? Now wouldnt that be just wicked!!!

[wingsonwater]

Aha I love the random "Meow!" in the background at the end.

[eddyharryjoe]

how do you guys edit your videos??

p.s. with what nerdfighting program?

[CelebHeadShot]

I'd wager that they use iMovie or Final Cut. Just a guess.

[ronnieDiii]

stare into the subliminal for as long as you can!

[darkemage]

I loved the interview. And NPR really is like being knighted. lol.

[forgetregret12]

Wait, Wait, don't tell me!!

Just kidding. I love 'All things Considered.'

[Fundippsoyeah]

Way to goooo!!

John is way better being interviewed then you are. =]

I guess it comes with the territory being a writer.

You guys are so sensative!

[annawritedraw]

Hank:

They didn't talk about your songs. I thought for sure they'd mention The Harry Potter song. It certainly would have been the moment to reach out to Helen Hunt. She's got to be an "All Things Considered" kind of girl. Nice job.

[sarmcelfresh]

Yea! Congrats! I love all things concidered! Woot!

[Emy1708]

congrats on your honor!

hope you guys go big places.

you sure deserve to!

bye!

[thatisawkward]

I just listened to the interview. I loved the part where John says he feels awkward even mentioning that you never said i love you. Keep posting videos, I miss you guys.

[flylikeacow]

Oh no! I missed it! I was out for dinner with my grandparents and parents. :(

[able1039]

You can go to the NPR web site and hear it there. Just type in "John and Hank You tube" in the search box at the site.

[Supernova336]

Yeah that's what i did

[apres]

I tuned in and loved it.

[yellowpages67]

There are officially ten times more nerdfighters than people living in my town.

[chssoftball20]

ahhh the interview was really good!!!

ok so just out of curiosity, what is your favorite country song?

[offcameherhead]

Yessssss!

[KattinW]

...is it just me, or does anyone else complusively refresh their YouTube homepage waitng for this subscription to show up? =S

excellent vid *click on NPR link*

[laviolander]

yeah I definitely do that...

: )

[KattinW]

haha. i'm glad. i was wondering if i just had some strange disorder. =P ...well, maybe i do - its called nerdfighteritis. but its a benign and awesome disease.

[Okakusanonymous]

Wow.... 15,000 is more people than my town and two towns next to it... That's so amazingly jokes!

[IcedCapQueen]

16, 005 subscribers. AWESOME.

[IcedCapQueen]

i watched it. :)

[Pixe246]

just listened....I don't think she hot the concept of nerdfighting haha but you guys were in awesome form as usual.

[anitathefroqueen]

how cute!! your guys' interview was adorable. SO JOKES

[larkspur]

I just listened to the NPR spot too! Very appropriate closing music. It's different being able to listen to you both in un-compressed audio (well, besides John's previous NPR pieces). I love NPR, especially marketplace.

[nightworm]

all things considered is the best. i'm glad you chose such an awesome forum for broadcast (or such an awesome forum for broadcast chose you!).

[amywithlemon]

i'm so GLAD you still do this.

YAY!

[saraadx3]

i heard you guys!

it was like a weekly dosage of awesome crammed into 5 minutes of radio interview.

[wildchilds117]

i listened to the interview it was great!

[uncreativebutt]

where is John?!

[xkelseygurl185x]

yay!

i tuned in.

congrats.

she seemed to be favoring john...?

[BikingWithColdWater]

I think she played John's vlog clips because he talks slower than our speed-talkin' Hank.

[stenforthewin]

I listened! It was very exciting but altogether too brief.

[Marah707]

I MISSED ITTT!!!

D:

*dies!*

[DancersAreCool]

Freakin Awesome!

[musicpeep]

I heard that show :D

[saniya]

soo cool npr and the brotherhood!! two things i love, coming together

[uncreativebutt]

I missed it, I don't get on sundays :(

[makafeke]

NPR is the queen! You lucky dawgs!

And I missed it, oh poo.

[snotpokkit]

oh no I missed it! I'm not usually on YT on the weekends.

[animechick911]

My mom heard you on the radio yesterday *cries* I was at a frinds house so I didn't hear it

[MattDeathStroke]

You're welcome.

-Your 15,000th subscriber.

lol jk

[BuckWilliams17]

I missed it too, but I just went on to my NPR site and found the sound file and listened to it. Great job both of you.

[S0xPRiSoNeR]

you guys almost have your 16000th subscriber!!

[Cmed1970]

at the very end i heard cameo

[hipolitorafael]

You were super! The Indy-Missoula axis lives!

[raysel2]

OH NOOOOOOOOOOOO I MISSED IT!!!!!!!

[sivartis]

Heard it live and listened to it again on the all things considered website (missed the beginning the first time). It was great to hear out on the radio, but I think they could have given you a LOT more time!

~Trav

[bella91xox]

i just listened to the show!!you guys are soo sweet :) and awesome :P

[turkishmilkmaid]

Crap, I missed it!

[meoka2368]

(N)erd (P)ride (R)evolution

[mestiarcanus]

Congratulations on your recent knighting, Sirs Hank and John! Very jokes.

[thewindowcreakedopen]

I just started listening to NPR! I missed the show though... I'm glad we can listen to it online though... :]

[tsekanikarita]

I caught the interview on NPR purely by chance today. Way to make my Sunday awesome!

[tripleshot256]

it's like getting knighted. :D

[msmagicx]

Just listen to it online.

Awesome! We missed you guys too.

[Reija]

I would have much preffered elephant sized puppies!

[Shoesyness]

MEOW

[Sarenale]

Well done!!!!!!!!!

[AsertyDances]

Just listened to the broadcast online... I just can't get enough of your brotherly love! I do miss the dailies.

[QuintessentiallyMaya]

OH my goodness you guys! NPR!!!!!!!

You two and the nerdfighter community are just this snowball of awesome which continues rolling and thus gaining more awesome.

I'm ever so.. jubilant! and hopeful.

So thank you for helping restore my faith in humanity. And thanks for the promotion of intelligence, cognizance, and compassion for things that really matter.

DFTBA.

[GreyMatilda]

THAT'S SO COOL!!!

[MissWarpedChick]

Oh my. I heard this on NPR with my parents and I was like 'Dude! This is Hank and John!' and my parents were like 'Uhh. Okay.'

[ffxisthebest]

O crap!! I missed it...I was watching a crappy football game instead..Does anyone have a link to it or where can I listen to it?

[BuriedErect]

The radio station had my CD player in it. o.0;

[okiesniowa]

DFTBA!!

[moviemaker1989]

missed it live, but online!!! MADE OF AWESOME!!!

[Aceswolf]

Another great show :)

[wolverine48126]

I just heard you guys today on NPR. I never heard of you guys but the little program on NPR got me curious.

[ToniMorgan14]

Just heard you guys on the online broadcast!!! ^_^ Nice job. NPR just got many much more ammounts of jokes.

[jacketeer]

Oh my GOD. Ok, so this video was (obviously) funny, but when you got to taking the hobbits to Isengard....

HOLY CRAP I LAUGHED HARDER THAN I HAVE LAUGHED AT ANYTHING ON THE INTERNET IN WEEKS. Oh my GOD. Hank, you kill me.

[iMoco13]

just heard it on NPR.

you guys are awesome. <3

[yorkshirethorn]

Just listened to the interview. I think you're right that you were just yourselves the whole year and that's awesome - you didn't let the fame change you (granted, peer pressure from nerdfighters is more like a support group than decepticons driving you to abandon everything you hold dear...). And I'm so happy that you're still posting! You guys rock!

[TheItGirl16]

i will definately be listening to it.

[angusMCjamison]

wish i had that radio station in my range/ country. could you mb upload part of the interview here? consider this my question tuesday question :)

[milowent]

hey: the link to the audio is in the description of the vid.

[guacamoleroxmysox]

IT WAS SO GOOD!

[Mezmerizer02]

amazing to hear liberals on conservative radio.

[AikenAndHaruBloggola]

NPR isn't conservative radio.

[guacamoleroxmysox]

yeah really, NPR is really really not conservative.

[willnye2cool]

dude alot of people call NPR National Pinko Radio

Far From Conservative

[KateKilpat]

I love Cameo's little meow at the end. :)

[majorgeek]

It was sort of funny that just before you guys were on All Things Considered, my local NPR station aired Bob Edwards' weekend show and he was interviewing some guy who wrote a book on geeks and nerds!

[jeff61813]

i was very surprised to hear about brotherhood 2.0 on npr today

[scandalousjen]

So full of AWESOME!!! Aww you guys.

Needed more Hank though. Boarding school John? Wow, need a new vid about that.

[Zhiperser]

Yeah, for someone who constantly reminds us how he wasn't a great student these otherwise scholarly things keep popping up.

[vlogbrothers]

Going to boarding school is not just for scholars :). I didn't get good grades in high school, but I was passionate about learning. -John

[bandgeek0165]

Hank...your hair looked really good...idk y..but it did...:D

[sillysp8]

wont load for me

[alwayzjello]

I just heard it. You guys are so sweet.

For the record, I miss watching you guys also.

John, you're due for a video, the last one you posted was over a week ago. Maybe do one in time for question Tuesday?

[ununhexium]

Oh my god! I just saw some puppy sized elephants in the movie 'Stardust'!!!!!

[piginawig05]

omg weird!!! i just watched STARDUST 2...

scary weird! =)

[darkwing2525]

NPR = Nerdfighting People's Radio

John & Hank = SuperAwesome

[Devourer09]
