Before I went on the YouTube
SciShow, I didn't know that my host was a
famously successful vlogger. I hadn't, really, heard that term
before...but Hank Green is the brother of well-known author John Green
(
The Fault is in Our Stars), with whom he partners for various media
events. Hank is also an environmental entrepreneur who graduated from
the Environmental Studies Program, where I was teaching in Missoula,
Montana this winter. There in lovely Missoula, Hank oversees his vlog
empire, which sounds evil but actually employs over 40 people doing
good work telling people about science and the environment. In this episode, I talk about
citizen science and then we are joined by a biologist with a tarantula
named Fluffy.
One more
thing: last time I checked out the Youtube, the show had over 78,000
views, with some 1700 Likes and 39 Dislikes. I can't help myself: I have to wonder about the Dislikes.
Was it me? Or Fluffy? I'm pretty sure it was me.
See show.
