showcase I'm your host Hank Green and joining me this week as always is

science expert Siri Riley hello our resident every man Sam Schultz hello and this

week we have a special guest artist botanist photographer and self-described

mad scientist it's Tyler Thrasher what up Tyler how are you I'm doing great

I'm doing really great I'm in Chicago right now for an art show it was a good

show having some time off at the family so I'm doing really great thanks for

having me Tyler if you if you don't know it does a number of things but he's

maybe most famous for diagnosing what's wrong with your plant which usually is

you he's not particularly kind about it you are the reason you're a plant

so what's the what's the most common way I killed my plant I mean here's a

thing it always comes down to like a couple things like you're not watering

enough you're not okay you're not paying attention that's the thing it always

comes down sounds that sounds mean I know it sounds very that's true of

almost everything that goes wrong in my life yeah and it's very simple just pay

attention take some notes and then hopefully you're one step better than you were

yesterday that's I think it's simple I think it's an easy fix you're saying you

saying that I have to look to think about the plant it's a plant they do it on

their own outside all the time yeah but once you bring them indoors then all

of a sudden your response will for you took them away from the one thing they

knew the outdoors oh my god thank you for saying that yeah it's weird it's weird

that us as an whole separate animals like we're gonna take this whole other
