It's about time for another hangout. Want to teach me about Pokemon?
My son is wanting to get into Pokemon. I know ABSOLUTELY nothing about it. How about 8pm Central time on Wednesday the 20th? I can show you guys some videos that are coming up and we can talk about Pokemon if any of you know about it? I want to make sure it's ok for my kids. I will figure out the best video hosting method and put up a link later tonight or in the morning.

Thank you so much for your continued support.
I obviously never expected something like this to happen I tried to learn as much as I could from the experience.
2016-02-02 14:27:40 +0000 UTC View PostThe Skepticon Talk
The Skepticon folks uploaded the talk. It wasn't an attempt to convince anyone of anything. It was simply an attempt to get people to interact peaceably. I thought going to a place where pretty much everyone disagrees with me might be a good place to prove that we can all get along. There were a lot of high fives at the end!

Merry Christmas! Here's the Q&A I alluded to earlier this week. I'm going to do a hangout tomorrow at 10:30AM Central Time. I'll try to go for an hour and a half.

(This year's Peru Orphanage Update) - Amazon River Monster Project
Hey guys big news. You know the Peru Orphanage we've been working on since 2012? There are kids there now. Kids that are off the streets. I'm quite excited about it. We're moving now from finances to BUILD, to finances to OPERATE. I made the suggestion that we launch Not Forgotten on Patreon and the founder, Tyler Fuqua decided to trust me and go for it. If you're interested in supporting Not Forgotten, by all means feel free to reduce any giving to Smar...

I thought you might like to see something that I'm working on. Keep this under wraps please! I'm only revealing this to Patrons. I've been working on a video for quite a while now about the rolling shutter effect and why it makes propeller blades look funny. It's going to be a great video and I thought you'd like to see this image I captured with my phone in Colorado Springs last week. SSsssshhh! Don't tell anyone!
Thanks again for all your support!

Mr. Z has been a Smarter Every Day supporter on Patreon since the very beginning, and has always supported Smarter Every day in a big way. I'm in Colorado (for work) and finally got to meet him! He loaned me some ridiculous science gear for an upcoming video and we had some burgers with the kids. I really enjoy it when I get a chance to just sit down and chat with people that have so intentionally and directly made efforts to help make Smarter Every Day happen. I wish I could m...

Howdy awesome Patrons. I've recieved countless emails from people wanting shirts and "merch". I apologize that it's taken me so long! I haven't made the fact that a store exists "live" yet because there is only a limited number of shirts. I wanted to release it on Patreon first so you guys could get your picks of anything you want. Oh... there's also a ladies version of each shirt! The shirts are sized a bit small so if you're interested consider ordering up a...

Hello Patrons! My next milestone is for a "Contraption Fabricator". I've already got started. A friend of mine has a genius Dad, whom I'm currently paying to help me build an interesting contraption. Here's a sneak peek!

Hey guys, I was invited to speak at Skepticon, the nation's largest skeptic/atheism conference (according to their literature). As a Christian if I'm honest, I was scared, but I did it anyways. My message was that it's possible to have a rational faith and no matter what, it's important to work together to do awesome science despite any differences in opinions on faith. Everyone was extremely kind and we were all mutually gracious. I got to meet one Patron, Andrew, who came out to the talk....

Gordon's working on a new song for the next video (which involves helicopters). I thought you might like to see a bit into the creative process. I sent him a rough draft of the video a week or so ago and he's been letting the creative process happen. This is pretty much how it works. This time instead of emailing the draft response to me he tweeted me.
