  • Hank
    World History 
  • Episode 1:
    • John eats a 99ยข hamburger:
      "Which is delicious, by the way...it's actually terrible...and very cold...and I wish I hadn't eaten it."
    • The first occurrence of "Unless...you are The Mongols."
    • "Let's see what's in the secret compartment! It's another double cheeseburger! Thanks, secret compartment! Just kidding, I don't thank you for this."
  • Episode 2:
    • John manages to analogize the Indus Valley civilization with how to be a better boy/girlfriend.
    • (on the subject of the Indus language)"And no Rosetta Stone has appeared to help us learn it (cue the learning program hitting the ground) No not that Rosetta Stone...actually either would be acceptable"
  • Episode 3:
    • "Today's illustration points out that 'an eye for an eye' leaves the whole world monocular."
    • "You see this in some of our greatest art, like The Beverly Hillbillies, Deliverance, and The Epic Of Gilgamesh."
    • "Violent, unpredictable, and difficult to navigate...oh Tigris and Euphrates, how you remind me of my college girlfriend."
  • Episode 4:
    • "That's a period that historians call a long-ass time. And I will remind you it's not cursing if I'm talking about donkeys."
  • Episode 6:
    • The entirety of the open letter to Chutes and Ladders.
  • Episode 34 opens with John saying that nationalism is responsible for, among other things, his globes being out of date. He then comments on what's outdated about each of them, followed by the globes exploding. Just before the opening credits start, John asks for his globes back because he feels "naked without them".
    Ecology 
    Chemistry 
  • In the second episode of the show, Hank states that you have to round measurements in calculations to what is known. If you state more decimal places than what you know then you are spreading misinformation and, thus, are a liar. Why shouldn't you be a liar in chemistry? Well, that because of what they do to liars in chemistry. They "kill them" of course!
  • In episode #17, Hank mentions one of the absurdities of chemical symbols by pointing out that the symbol for heat is lowercase "q". He goes on to try to explain that this is because "heat" used to have a silent "q" until stopping himself mid sentence and state that he's making this up.

    Big History 

    Anatomy & Physiology 

    Mythology 
  • A sort of meta-funny, but YouTube requires logging in to watch ep. 9, about Olympian gods, and not any of the previous episodes. Those that cover creation myths. You know, these creation myths that have all the blood and sex and gods masturbating in them? Those myths.
