I think we're doing a cold open today. We only do cold opens on important occasions.

This time around, there's a couple things. I mean, I do have a new book coming out. It's called

the Ethnic Procene Review. It's available for pre-order everywhere, but that's not really the

cause of the cold open. We wanted to come here before the intro and just let...

I know what this is going to be. Just let everybody know that I made a TikTok.

Oh my God. I make way too many TikToks, but John Green, my brother John Green, makes one TikTok

every month, every couple months, but you know what they all have in common, Hank. They have a

variety of topics, but you know what each of them has in common. Solid gold platinum,

banger TikTok. It's true. John, all my TikToks go platinum, Hank. The only one that didn't

is the one where you promoted my book. You have 750,000 followers on TikTok after five TikToks?

Yeah, so the whole reason I made this TikTok was because I was getting really close to

666,000 followers, which is a number that, as you know, like I find extremely stressful.

Uh-huh. And so I was like, I think I'll make a TikTok, because then either a lot of people will

follow me or a lot of people will unfollow me, but it doesn't matter either way, it's the same result,

which is that we are no longer near that number. And a lot of people followed me because of my

really nuanced hot take about how Joe Biden is the 45th president of the United States,

because we can't keep counting Grover Cleveland twice. Hank, I want it on my tombstone,

the Grover Cleveland can't be two presidents. Good to talk.

Good to talk. John, if I can make one contribution to this broken country, let it be that Grover

Cleveland cannot be the 22nd and the 24th president of the United States.

John Green, 1977 to 2007, Grover Cleveland is only one man.

You know, Hank, now that you've said it that way, I'd like to amend my previous statement.
