Good morning, John. A warning. This video contains realities that are sometimes unpleasant to confront, specifically the reality of the mortality of humans. If that does not sound like the kind of thing you want to hear about today, move along. There is nothing to see here. If on the other hand, nerds singing too quickly about the inevitability of your personal demise and indeed universal oblivion sounds like your cup of tea, proceed. Well, every living organism at one time was dust, an assemblage of atoms from our atmosphere and crust, these bits that come together, but only for a time from that very first self-replicator oozing from the slime we exist and then we don't. That's just how we do. Eh, everyone you know some day will also be dead, do we're all gonna die? We're all gonna die. If so, what's your thing on which every living thing can be alive? We're all gonna die. We're all gonna die. Everyone so far has died, do there's not a thing that you can do in you and me and us we're all gonna die. Well, many folks will hope that there's a way out of this song that if we think real hardened act will tough somehow we'll get along, we'll fix those key lamirs, digitize our brains, freeze our dying bodies till the remedies attained. Well, I have some bad news for you, you can't run the hers. The explosion of the sun or he dead that the universe, we're all gonna die. We're all gonna die. If so, what's your thing on which every living thing can be alive? We're all gonna die. We're all gonna die. The singularity won't save you. There's not a thing that you can do in you and me and us we're all gonna die. I forgot the last verse. The marvelous truth of it all is that death is such a gift because the only reason we can die is that we even live the improbability of life and you and me and us that we existed all the stiff and kiss and taste and hear and judge we've used our minds to make so many awesome things somehow. Including all of the words in the song you're listening to right now. We're all gonna die. We're all gonna die. It's the one thing on which every living thing can be alive. We're all gonna die. We're all gonna die. It's the one thing you can't live through. There's not a thing that you can do in you and me and us we're all gonna die. So have a good time and be nice to each other. Yeah, weird song topic. Though not that weird if you listen to Dear Hank and John. I'd like to kind of understand my place in the universe and understanding that it is a brief place. It's not really how places work but you get what I mean is important to me. And now I find myself with some extra time. So what's going on in my life? Making a lot of side shows, making some crash courses, just starting shooting our new crash course series, Crash Course Philosophy which won't be uploaded for quite a while yet. So I apologize for teasing. I haven't seen Star Wars yet. I don't know what kind of nerd I think I am. And we just recorded our 29th podcast. I cannot believe that we have been Dear Hank and John for 29 weeks. And it was a real good one. It'll be out on Monday. Not on Tuesday. We're not great with the schedule. Ah, it is not an idea. So I just gave you some bad news. The good news though, there's lots of it. Scheduled flights between the US and Cuba are going to resume for the first time in 50 years. The world just had its first year in which the global economy grew while global carbon machines did not. And women just voted for the first time in Saudi Arabia. And also some of them were voted into elected positions. I know what it seems like. Maybe that shouldn't have just happened now. But at least it happened. So yes, some bad news, some good news. And all balance is out. Everything's going to be fine, right? You're good. I hope. John, I'll see you on Tuesday.
