Lower-confidence wave

2011 videos did not pass the QA gate (17 %); their analysis is shown but less reliable.

From the banks of the nearly flooding Clark Fork River, Hank riffs on random facts and proposes John's two outstanding punishments: a sandwich video with viewer-chosen gross ingredients and a video of more than 35 parts; he also previews his album Ellen Hardcastle.

What is said

00:00:00 — Greeting at the Clark Fork River, close to flooding

  • ★ Hank films down at the Clark Fork River, which he says is close to flooding. — 00:00:02

00:00:07 — Why did John give himself a punishment? Spitting in the river; crazy people; the ice cream truck plays SexyBack

  • ★★ Hank asks what John was thinking when he gave himself a punishment, since he now has two because of the Helen Hunt thing. (playful) — 00:00:07 · Punishment, Helen Hunt

00:00:34 — Pink used to be for boys; Hank blames Hitler for the switch

  • ★★ Hank says baby boys were dressed in pink and baby girls in blue until the 1940s. — 00:00:34
  • ★★ Hank says Hitler marked gay people with pink triangles in World War II so they could later be killed, and comically credits this for pink becoming effeminate and pink ribbons. (playful) — 00:00:39 · Adolf Hitler

00:01:19 — Punishment idea borrowed from Corey Vidal: John eats sandwiches of two viewer-chosen ingredients

  • ★★★ Hank proposes a punishment adapted from Corey Vidal's video where viewers clicked annotations to choose two items he blended and drank: viewers will pick two of six ingredients for John's sandwich. — 00:01:19 · Punishment, Nerdfighteria
  • ★ Hank says the brothers originated blending and drinking things, but he wrote to Corey Vidal to ask to borrow his click-to-choose idea, and Corey agreed. — 00:01:31

00:02:01 — The tallest man and the dolphin, Shaq, Achilles; an ant

  • ★★ Hank says the world's tallest man once reached down a dolphin's throat to remove plastic shards because no one else's arms, not even the vets', were long enough. — 00:02:01

00:02:37 — Two punishments for John; ask for sandwich ingredients

  • ★★★ Hank proposes John's two punishments, without saying which is which: a video of more than 35 parts (six times six), and making many sandwiches with gross ingredients. (hedged) — 00:02:37 · Punishment
  • ★★ Hank asks Nerdfighters to suggest in the comments things to include in John's sandwiches. — 00:02:58 · Nerdfighteria

00:03:03 — Album update: Ellen Hardcastle, its songs, cover art and expected release; sign-off

  • ★★★ Hank has been working on his long-overdue album Ellen Hardcastle, with older songs (Strange Charm, What Would Captain Picard Do?, Phineas Gage) and new ones (Shake a Booty, My Phone). — 00:03:03 · Strange Charm
  • ★★ Hank shows the album's cover art by Alan Lastufka. — 00:03:20 · Alan Lastufka
  • ★★ Hank hopes to have the album at LeakyCon and on sale at DFTBA shortly after, around July 13. (hedged) — 00:03:30 · LeakyCon, DFTBA Records

Humor (significant)

  • An ice cream truck passes playing Justin Timberlake's 'SexyBack'. — 00:00:28 > «Ice cream trucks have apparently grown up a little since I was a kid.»
  • Hank traces pink's switch from boys to girls to Hitler's pink triangles. — 00:00:54 > «And that is why pink ribbons are for boobies.»
  • Listing sample sandwich pairings, Hank lands on lard and lox and turns it into a title. — 00:01:50 > «Lard and lox. The Steve Buscemi story.»
  • Hank says Shaq could have helped the dolphin but was too busy that day. — 00:02:14 > «He's not going to be so busy anymore.»
