My dad encouraged me to watch these when I did my gcses back in 2016, I'm so glad he did. Now I can't get enough 🤣
me trying to figure out where in the world this guy got a 99 cent cheeseburger checks video its from 2012-
Omg my teach is making me watch this
India has 15k years of agricultural history ❤️
I'm gonna binge watch this, even though I haven't started school yet
One good cyber attack and we will be hunter gatherers again 😂
It's been over 4 years since I took AP World but I come here every once in a while to reminisce. The day of the exam, many of us students overpopulated a teacher's room because he promised to bring donuts for exam day. And we just munched on those donuts, in a dark classroom dimly lit by a small window with the projector playing "the history of the entire world i guess." But we barely paid attention, because small chatter filled the room, and everyone was anxious for the big day.
Looking back, I felt like I was suffering, but now I carry a fond memory of a time where I was challenged to learn; now I take fulfillment in this small-souled vanity. I miss my classmates and wish the best for them (and wish the best for whoever's reading this, too)
I bet the phrase of the week and all following weeks are unless you are the mongols
u should talk about goverment john green
Most cultures worked to live interdependently and looked out for the community, except european culture. No one was left to struggle alone..all contributed and all ate..together as a practice. except in european culture.

The first ever "unless you're the Mongols" running gag
The double cheeseburger thing did not age well. It now takes almost half an hour to pay for that damn burger with minimum wage
Wow. These are already 10 years old.
Now I feel ancient.😔
Years later and now that intro definitely hits hard
Comment to support.
Recently started listening to these as podcasts. Works surprisingly well!
What an entrance!
What does AP mean in the west? Here in the Phil. AP is "ARALING PANLIPUNAN" which literally means social studies so its quite fascinating.
Such a high quality content. Love this channel.
Thank you John Green. Obsessive thoughts won't stop tonight and something about listening to another person who I know struggles with this to makes it easier. Even if he isn't talking about anything related to OCD.
I'd like apology for skoodilypoop
ok so in a way ancient foragers had it better than me
What about herding Buffalo?
2012 wow ten years ago I was starting freshman year of hs. These videos seemed like they were made for teens just like me at the time. They got me through so many papers and projects or when it felt I really just had to teach these things to myself. Thank you for all the time, energy and resources it took to make these videos because y’all taught a generation of kids when it seemed like the school system couldn’t. 💗
Mr. Green killed it
Not me watching in 2022
99 cent cheeseburger. We never knew how good we had it until it was gone….

Such a classic introduction.
Haha I just realized that John Green was also the author of Turtles all the way Down AND the co founder of CrashCourse
OMG baby John! He looks so young!
This is still one of my favorite crash course intros of all time
