Can I just say, as an Iranian, you are the first and only YouTuber that watch regularly that has taken a time to mention what's going on here and that warms my heart.

"An alcoholic doesn't want one drink. One drink is as good as no drinks. They want all the drinks" -one of the most truthful things I think I've ever heard.

I prefer scripted podcast way more than unscripted one. It seem to me that we get more informations in shorter time and flow is much smoother and more focused on the topic. Great work.

The brazilian portuguese equivalent of "y'all" would be something like "pessoal" or "galera". I always appreciate whenever Brazil is mentioned in your videos haha

as an american, i feel comfortable saying that I hope for some of the same things that iranian revolutionaries are hoping for. but, i feel a little weird telling them to "get in good trouble", cause it ain't my skin on the line

Hey Adam! I tick two of the LGBT "boxes" myself and just wanted to let you know that it means a lot whenever a person that you look up to (you) are speaking up for us. Thank you, it really makes me feel safe in a weird way. <br>Greetings all the way from snowy Sweden

Thank you for bringing attention to the protests Adam. I am one of your Iranian fans and I love your science based approach to food and cooking, specially in regards to the history of foods. In these hard times where we feel specially isolated it means so much to me to have one of my favorite YouTubers address our situation. Thank you very much!

Adam is a literal masterpiece of a blogger. Every single time i turn on this podcast (which unfortunately hasn't been happening too often) i'm blessed with these gold nuggets of informaion that answer a very specific question a had in mind but couldn't ever formulate. A forever fan

Love your talks on morality. It really goes a far ways when you acknowledge, almost at every step, every single thing that might influence your thoughts.

Adam: Explains the calorie differential between eating with or without playing on the phone.<br>Alex: "I told my wife to not play on the phone while eating, or she will get fat. I now have medical bills, and my wife needs bail money."

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L2w3gMM16tk&t=1706">28:26</a> The battle of Thermopylae took place 480 BC. About 2500 years ago, not "700 years ago". I'm not an expert on Greco-Persian wars, but that just seemed way off so I looked it up.<br><br>I love Adam's podcasts when I'm driving, this time I was cleaning my kitchen listening to the YouTube channel and had to stop and comment. Anyway, still a great podcast so far, as usual.
