4/29/202650 min
What is a word like “vegetarian” to describe a person who does not willingly want to consume AI-generated content? How do you avoid doomspiraling when trying to reconnect with your creativity? What’s the tastiest drink? Why do banks always tell you what the temperature is outside? Do I need to get a checkbook? What book should I read? Why are parking lot sunsets so beautiful and particularly, why are Meijer parking lots? How can I convince my friends who are visiting that it is a better place to see the sunset than over Lake Michigan?…Hank and John Green have answers!

Keith Habersberger· Guest1:10
You know? Each, I think we're all the top of a different nerd stack in particular.
Hank Green· Host1:14
