Hotstoppers [Hello Internet]

Special thanks to all my Patrons on Patreon, who get to vote on certain videos and receive early access!

Follow me on Twitter @vezitos for updates and news about stuff, and stupid silly posts about nothing important.

Cheers!

My favorite part is in a follow-up episode: CGP Grey mentions that, after Episode 60 came out, the barista never hassled him again and just gave him the hotstopper by default. (This caused Grey to worry that the barista listened to the podcast.) Maybe that barista was a Tim?

At that point it would make more sense for Grey to just wash and then re-use old hostoppers. Keep them in a little ziplock in his pocket or something. Guaranteed zero germs on them.

This was the single handed, most iconic moment in this podcast's history.

"all i want is for everything in the world to go just the way i want to. is that too much to ask?"

I LOVE the animation at 2:51 where gray VISIBLY goes through registering what brady just said. SO well animated.

[elizabethaman]

I don’t even listen to this podcast, but I am HERE for these animations.

Get those gross, sweaty, meaty, money-touching hands over to Twitter @vezitos for little-to-no payoff! :D

Whenever Grey swears, it’s over something silly or inconsequential to normal people, but man is it funny.

[CybeargPlays]

Thank you for finally answering my burning question of what the hell a hot-stopper actually is!

I just realized, the menu has ‘dark light roast’

That scene at 3:51 when gray's sitting there playing settlers of catan with five sheep in his hand.
Most people probably wouldn't get that but i loved it so much.

[TorreFernand]

Today I learned hotstoppers are a thing. As in, a thing that has a use. Also, what they're called. Also, Grey was totally ahead of us on this "no getting what other people touched in your mouth" deal

[CyberKirby]

This just verifies that Grey would and probably could become a supervillain if pushed too far.

[packx]

When grey was looking at his computer was the best part!

[taylorhancock]

Woo, now I have a way of explaining Grey and Brady's obsession with hotstoppers to people, along with another wonderful animation! I love your Animations, and I can't wait to see more from you!

[connierobinson]

You only have 6 patrons??? But the quality is so quality D:

[MontageLegacy]

I LOVE THESE ANIMATIONS! The fact that Grey is a robot makes it so cute

I was once a barista at a Panera Bread near Philadelphia; we carried hotstoppers, briefly, for about a year. They were never handed out by default, always kept behind the counter, and were basically a secret we'd only let customers we liked know about. The reason for all this was that they were, I was told, stupidly expensive, so they were reserved for those who would request them.

His barista was probably ordered strictly to avoid giving them out, BUT, any good barista should get to know a regular customer and not badger them unless said customer is being unreasonable.

[JJRicks]

Top quality work Tim, absolutely fantastic! The shading on Grey during that intense scene was INCREDIBLE! Super great!

[pegmama]

At the coffee place I worked at, we kept the hot stoppers behind the counter specifically so that everyone’s (all the customers’) meaty hands didn’t get on them. We at least felt bad if we accidentally touched the long bit— customers would definitely dig their full hands into the pile
