What is said

00:00:00 — Part one: a fan's Fake John Green DailyBooth account of embarrassing photoshops of John

  • ★★ Hank says an anonymous person with marvelous photoshopping skills has run a fake John Green DailyBooth account for about three weeks, posting pictures of John in embarrassing circumstances. — 00:00:00 · John Green
  • ★ Hank lists the pictures: John loving unicorns, dressed as Edward Cullen, kissed by the Poe bust, swapped with Willy, admitting the puff is a wig; others, like a John Green cereal, are 'ridiculously awesome'. (playful) — 00:00:29 · Edward Cullen, Willy, the Puff

00:00:58 — The account praised; its fake So Jokes back cover; Hank's second studio album in progress

  • ★★ Hank says the fake John Green DailyBooth has been consistently hilarious for weeks and he is impressed; signing up for it would 'probably' be a good idea. (hedged) — 00:00:58
  • ★ That day's fake post was a So Jokes back cover listing only versions of Accio Deathly Hallows; Hank says he takes the criticism at face value. (playful) — 00:00:58 · So Jokes, Accio Deathly Hallows
  • ★★★ Hank announces he is working on a second studio album, which he says will be colossal, with songs he is really proud of. — 00:01:27
  • ★★ Hank says the track list is not final but it looks like at least 15 studio tracks; the cover design is under way and a 'super secret surprise' may be involved. (hedged) — 00:01:27

00:01:56 — Possible western US tour with the new album; call for venue contacts west of the Rockies

  • ★★★ Hank says there is a chance he will tour the western US with the new album, though it comes out soon and he is not guaranteeing anything; the Tour de Nerdfighting covered the east. (hedged) — 00:01:56 · Tour de Nerdfighting
  • ★★★ Hank asks people to email hankandjohn@gmail.com with connections at venues west of the Rockies: rooms for about 150-200 people, all ages, near a big city; colleges, clubs, libraries or bookstores. — 00:01:56

00:02:55 — Part three: the new Nerdfighter Like shirt at DFTBA.com; Katherine's reaction; buy So Jokes; sign-off

  • ★★ Hank announces a new shirt he, John and Alan sell at DFTBA.com, the official 'Nerdfighter Like' shirt, a phrase coined by Lauren Fairweather in a song Hank covered on So Jokes; he thanks its designer. — 00:02:55 · DFTBA Records, Alan Lastufka, So Jokes
  • ★★ Hank says their shirts are printed in limited runs, so buy it now at DFTBA.com, and get So Jokes too before the second album comes out. — 00:02:55 · DFTBA Records, So Jokes
  • ★ Hank says when he showed Katherine the shirt, she suspiciously asked who sent it to him, until she realized it was not from some random girl. (playful) — 00:02:55 · Katherine Green
