FYNF liveshow this Saturday @ 2pm EST! →
Come hang with your favorite contributors (it’s okay, we won’t tell the others), Katy and Lindsay! You can subscribe at the above link to get notified on youtube and of course we’ll post here when the show starts. We aim to make our broadcasts a comfortable place for nerdfighters to connect and discuss recent experiences, issues, events, etc in the community and we’d love to hear from you! 2pm EST be there or be just as awesome as you are now, I guess. We’ll still like you regardless.

North Korean Chicken, Stagecoach Travel, and other Thoughts from before Carnegie Hall

In which John visits you from the distant past of Saturday in order to
discuss his (possible) Internet addiction, why you won’t find him in
comments today, and Carnegie Hall.
53 Terrible Jokes!
They’re not actually terrible, most of them are actually pretty dang funny. Thanks to all the people who suggested jokes via Twitter (THERE WERE A LOT OF YOU!) these pretty much exclusively came from that search.
Men of YouTube Charity Calendar is now available for pre-order, benefitting next year’s project for awesome: http://dftba.com/product/14d/2013-Men-of-YouTube-Calendar
If you missed out on snagging one of the Men of Youtube calendars during the Project for Awesome, now’s your chance to pick one up! You can preorder from DFTBA Records, and all the proceeds will still go directly to the Foundation to Decrease Worldsuck. Huzzah!
Why Does Congress Suck?
In which John Green seeks to explain why the United States congress has become so astonishingly inefficient that it can’t even reach a compromise to avert disaster, and why—thanks to clever redistricting—most congresspeople are now incentivized not to work seriously on policy. Along the way there’s a bit of historical context, a lot of frustration, some screaming, and a celebration of the beginning of the 7th year of the vlogbrothers channel.
Thanks for sticking with us, nerdfighters. (And thanks for reading the entire dooblydoo!)
Meet the Team: The Missoula Office (And P4A and TheBrainScoop)
http://www.youtube.com/thebrainscoop
We’ve been making Crash Course and SciShow for more than a year now and, of course, we can’t do it by ourselves. So I wanted to take you around our offices a bit and introduce the people who help us make this stuff.

Also, we raised a CRAZY amount of money through the Project for Awesome. There were also a CRAZY number of videos made promoting charities and IndieGoGo assures us that we’ve broken a number of their records. So that’s pretty dang cool.
Thanks to everyone who helped make the P4A a success this year.
