First 90 secondsHank Green· Host0:01
You're listening to a Complexly podcast. Hello, and welcome to Dear Hank & John.
John Green· Host0:12
Or as I prefer to think of it, Dear John & Hank.
Hank Green· Host0:15
It's a podcast where two brothers answer your questions, give you the best advice, and bring you all the week's news from both Mars and AFC Wimbledon. John?
John Green· Host0:22

Hank Green· Host0:22
Do you know how you charge a plug-in Handra Accord?

John Green· Host1:07
Not just shrinking, to be fair.
Hank Green· Host1:09
Yeah.
John Green· Host1:09
We have been under the impression that we essentially make this podcast for ourselves and eight to 10 passionate letter writers.
Hank Green· Host1:16
(laughs) We, we definitely know that there's a lot of people who write letters.
John Green· Host1:19
Yeah.
Hank Green· Host1:19
So we know, we know that it's an... It's not a tiny group of people. But what we had, we had thought that we were once a podcast that had like maybe 150,000 downloads.
John Green· Host1:29
Yeah.
Hank Green· Host1:29
And now we were a podcast
