Casey was great. I hope he comes back in the future so we can get more in-depth on a topic or 2. And Huckleberry is always adorable. I also have ataxia, so I have a special place in my heart for him.
@@revolver265 I have spinocerebellar ataxia, type 5 (AKA Lincoln's ataxia). Mine is genetic. I bump into things and fall a lot, especially if I'm trying to do 2 things at once (like turn as I'm standing up). I also have tremors, and my muscles will just stop working, especially if I'm carrying something heavy (like a pot of water, which I'll just end up dropping, so I have to be very careful in the kitchen). The symptoms are worse when I'm tired. Some days I feel almost normal, while other days, it's impossible to do something like buttoning a blouse or brushing my teeth. As I get older, the symptoms get worse and I have more and more bad days. Huckleberry seems like his is perhaps due to injury, and since he was so young, his brain seems to be rerouting to make up for whatever damage was done. So hopefully he will continue to improve, unlike those of us with autosomal dominant inherited ataxias.
I liked Casey. He was really interesting to listen to. He also had this air of "I'm about to leap out of a plane and I'm incredibly stoked about it! Let me tell you why!" about him.
These are my favorite guests you've ever had He's so interesting, and has such cool things to say about the beaver population, it's all really cool. I just love this episode and your guests
One of the best episodes ever. Everyone was great. Casey especially was one cool dude. His excitement for his science was contagious and uplifting. Our planet might not be doomed after all, as long as great caretakers like him are around. Thank you🙂
What a wonderfully intelligent man. I really wish the best for him and his people. He's clearly extremely smart, and his existence is a obvious boon to all people worldwide.
I love this episode! Incredibly fascinating. Truly enlightening about hydrology and how his profession doesn’t just affect agriculture and economies, but also the traditional nations and their practices. More and more reason to act upon climate change.
This was great as someone in graduate school for Environmental Engineering for water chemistry (and Earth and Planetary science). It’s really nice to see people who are doing work with water in the field and helps us keep in mind the kind of research we need to do (or consider doing) to help add to the conversation and make our water systems sustainable and healthy. : ) shout out from a Native American person studying in Norway🇳🇴!
This is one of my favorite episodes ever. Casey was clearly enthusiastic and so engaging. I especially appreciated the cultural perspective; how will their stories be told if there is no more snow? Huckleberry was the perfect animal guest, too. I don't think I've ever seen the human and animal guests so relate to each other so much. Please have Casey back; I absolutely want to hear more about his work.
The timbre of Casey's voice is so comforting to listen to. Also, great to learn about hydrology, especially being one of those Californians who lives near recent wildfires.
I love that he adresses Hank by first name. More than just once. It makes his answers seem personal, and less foreign, because I've only just learned about hydrology
He also did it for Jessie too seems like a very polite man who actually listens and engages as people speak and listens to understand not just to reply.
Didn't realize this was a SciShow TalkShow day, I was like "It's about time for another one" and it turns out my dreams came true today. Casey is definitely engaging, you ought to have him back! And beavers of course play a big role in how water moves.
I love that Casey is so passionate about what he does, and he's super engaging to listen to. Science First Responders! The fact that his profession is actually so very important to addressing the issues we're facing as a whole is amazing. Just kind of off-the-wall things you don't always think about. Huckleberry's cute as heck, he reminds me of a supersized version of a guinea pig (specifically because they pretty much just try to eat everything). Loved them both, this episode was awesome. ♥
Great show. We used to live near a beaver pound and I'd watch them for hours, so cool. When I was an undergrad one of my best friend's dad was a professor of agriculture engineering . One of his specialties was the study of groundwater. I know not sexy at all right, until you learn that one of his gigs was as a consultant on the ground water movement under the Oakridge TN nuclear facility. I'm pretty sure most people never give groundwater a second thought unless you live in area with a sole source aquifer like I do. However ,the study of groundwater movement is fascinating. Modeling groundwater is incredibly complex requiring sophisticated computer modeling, at times on supercomputers.
Hydrology and geology are very important for water movement. Working as a consultant for oil and gas operators and pipelines in Ohio and PA, one of my major functions to surface and ground water management. From evaulating watersheds to determine clean up locations if needed, establishing controls for storm water/sediment, maintaining flow rates from developed sites to avoid flooding or overwhelming existing culverts and drainiage. The list goes on and on. Responsible use of water resources and sustainable construction are vital, but people don't understand the complexity of water sheda. Super computers are used to model single watersheds and not always well.
I couldn't help but notice that too. It seems like he's integrated the past traditions of his people with modern science beautifully. Would love to have guys like him around here to learn from.
As someone who lives in Oregon, the fires seem to just get worse every year. Last september was the worst ever, over a week of hazardous air quality, it was absolutely awful. Thank god for people like him who are working to help with this problem
I really enjoyed Casey’s talk. His demeanor was amazing and he spoke so eloquently, like a true leader in his field. He was so friendly and positive, just an entirely different kind of personality than what most of us are used to. I could tell that he has a very intense energy and confidence, a real love for life. I would be interested in seeing a lot more talks from Casey. Not just on the study & research of water, but also on current events & concerns in his field. I would also love to hear the stories of his ancestors, hear about their way of life, current events in their culture and so on. I feel like we really need a Native American History Month.
If I was an eccentric billionaire I would hire these men to sit at the end of my bed and discuss things until I fell into a hopeful, dreamy, educational sleep.
I hope the hydrologist trys to help bring beavers into other environments to try and control the fires and ecosystems. That would be an awesome follow-up episode.
Huckleberry is the best cuddle buddy! He looked like he was paying really close attention to Jessi for a minute there as she talked about beaver families and babies. Taking notes maybe? Haha!
So Casey is doing the same type off job you see here in the Netherlands. We even had a ambassador for water management. (his current job is being King of the Netherlands) But here we have been working on how to use nature it self as a way to both protect us from the water as in how we can increase water quality.
This got me thinking about some rather distressing topics. I had noticed today that all the three wells on the allotment I'm a part of had dried. Which happened last year as well. And watching this led me thinking if the wells are drying up before the end of summer what's happening to our groundwater overall. Turns out the reserves are in large areas the lowest they've been in 50 years. Now I live in Finland and we have a whole lot of fresh water here. So it's always been a thing that I've taken for granted. Furthermore on a global level the north has been considered the area that will stay habitable/arable even if we get quite severe climatechange. But is this really true? If even now with our relatively low population and abundant non-habitated/cultivated land our reserves are dropping, what happens when we get an influx of people? We'll need more water for those people and more water to cultivate food for those people. But also what does the increased usage of land do to the replenishment of our groundwater reserves? Which again are already not replenishing fast enough to cover our current usage. And this is just the human angle. What will be the repercussions to our nature? And what kinds of effects will that have on us?
I love these videos, it has been a while since you did one. I had no idea hydrology was so interesting, also I am gonna go check out Jessi's channel, it has been a while. Love you SciShow ❤❤❤
I'm not American, but I'm still glad to see the native peoples represented in the scientific communities no matter where in the world it is. just because its a scientifically valid solution to a problem, doesn't mean you're not stepping on someones culture.
I was once tackled by a beaver while riding at night by the Elbow river. I startled it and was between the beaver and the water, when it charged for the water it ran right into the side of my bike just behind the crank, took my bike right out from under me and I hit the pavement, the beaver was in the water before I knew what happened.
Fantastic episode. Beavers are so important and I want to see more videos showcasing them. Check out Ben Goldfarb's book "Eager" if you want a really deep dive on the importance of beavers to River restoration.
Well... last time we did that sort of Sci-Fi story we made hedgehogs hyperintellegent and claimed they could run at the speed of sound after humans wiped themselves out. Look where we are now. Both teetering on the edge of removing ourselves from the face of this planet in so many different ways. And we also made a Sonic the Hedgehog movie. And we also have a terrible fandom full of these guys who just won't stop making horrible fanart.
There was one guy who got a cease n desist letters from the government for taking a local Creek on his property. Turned out they sent the letter to the wrong person er beaver.
I have a question for Casey Ryan, if he responds here, and he may not know the answer. Do any recovery agencies employ the same basic spraying technology as transportation departments and some landscapers but instead of grass seeds use locally native plant seeds? Are there similar projects that fly under the radar of general knowledge?
Casey was great. I hope he comes back in the future so we can get more in-depth on a topic or 2. And Huckleberry is always adorable. I also have ataxia, so I have a special place in my heart for him.
Honest question here, what caused your Ataxia, and are there any common effects when or if you're doing something?

OMG I loved how the topics of both guests intersected, totally agree with others that Casey should come back on the channel!
These are my favorite guests you've ever had
He's so interesting, and has such cool things to say about the beaver population, it's all really cool. I just love this episode and your guests
I love how the animal tied in with the scientist on your show today. I know it's not always possible, but this was a real treat!

Not anyone from outside america
I love this episode! Incredibly fascinating.
Truly enlightening about hydrology and how his profession doesn’t just affect agriculture and economies, but also the traditional nations and their practices.
More and more reason to act upon climate change.
I am very happy to see a person descendant from the indigenous peoples of North America on the channel.

Perfect combination of guests, a hydrologist and a beaver. I thoroughly enjoyed this episode! Plus, Huckleberry cuddling with Jessi was so cute

Engaging presentation of an interesting topic. Great guest. Sometimes the conversations become kind of awkward but not this one.
The timbre of Casey's voice is so comforting to listen to. Also, great to learn about hydrology, especially being one of those Californians who lives near recent wildfires.
It's very clear both guests have a lot of passion about their work. This was a great show!
Yeah, especially the beaver was really into eating^^
Casey was so informative and kind! Such a nice guest for the show, thanks for having him!
I love that he adresses Hank by first name. More than just once. It makes his answers seem personal, and less foreign, because I've only just learned about hydrology
He also did it for Jessie too seems like a very polite man who actually listens and engages as people speak and listens to understand not just to reply.
I could listen to him speak all day. Incredibly fascinating, thank you.
I could listen to Casey talk for hours on any given topic, he's so engaging!
I like the coordination of our human and animal guests this time. Casey got to talk shop with an adorable water-engineering colleague.
Casey was awesome! Would love to see him in future videos.
Mr. Ryan is very well spoken and very clear.

Bring casey back! Would love to hear more of what he has to teach.
I'd love to see Casey on the show again, sounds like he has a lot to talk about
Casey seems like a great scientist and a great man, and Huckleberry was fabulous. Awesome episode guys!
not gonna lie, i clicked on this video, thinking it would probably be boring, but i was pleasantly surprised. so cool to hear about this :D
What a fascinating episode! Day to day I think I forget how important water truly is to our world.
Just going back over old episodes and Casey and Jessi have the best energy. They need a show together.

So, Hank. You had two native American water engineers on the show...? Both with impressive credentials...

I know it's not possible to have the same synergy with first guest and animal guest, but when it does happen. Its awesome, this was awesome
Wow, Casey is a great guest. And what amazing posture!
At first I thought the thumbnail said 'the first respawner' and I was surprised at what humanity has accomplished.
I love this guy!! Can we get him as a presenter on Sci Show??
I made this comment before I saw the second half. BOTH of them would be amazing hosts.
I think he’s too busy for that, but who knows?
Crash course hydrology maybe?
Very great interview 👍🏻. I’ve studied Colorado, Minnesota, Missouri, Mississippi. So many rivers.
It’s great that you had an earth scientist as a guest!
I enjoyed the conversation between Casey and Jessi.
With the emergency response credentials added on, you could say Casey Ryan is a water...BAER?
That gets an "atta boy" from me!
He’s a tardigrade?
Wow, this guy looks like a very proud and smart native American! It seems a guy came from the past, amazing and fascinating!
I couldn't help but notice that too. It seems like he's integrated the past traditions of his people with modern science beautifully. Would love to have guys like him around here to learn from.
Huckleberry is precious and must be protected
As someone who lives in Oregon, the fires seem to just get worse every year. Last september was the worst ever, over a week of hazardous air quality, it was absolutely awful. Thank god for people like him who are working to help with this problem
Taking physical/chemical hydrology this semester. Very excited!
Defiantly bring Casey back on he's great
I really enjoyed Casey’s talk. His demeanor was amazing and he spoke so eloquently, like a true leader in his field. He was so friendly and positive, just an entirely different kind of personality than what most of us are used to. I could tell that he has a very intense energy and confidence, a real love for life.

The best guest lineup ever!
These talk shows are my favorite! Love the epic braids btw.
The flathead reservation was so beautiful when I first visited
Huckleberry is too much. Can't handle the cuteness.
If I was an eccentric billionaire I would hire these men to sit at the end of my bed and discuss things until I fell into a hopeful, dreamy, educational sleep.
I like this guy. Can we keep him?
Eyyyy! I'mma hydrologist!
Need more of these Natural Resources videos! I'm starting my program in Washington this coming Fall
"I won't touch him at all" HOW CAN YOU RESIST PETTING THAT BIG OL' RUMP???
I noticed that Jessi did not pet him whilst in her lap.
I hope the hydrologist trys to help bring beavers into other environments to try and control the fires and ecosystems. That would be an awesome follow-up episode.
Huckleberry is the best cuddle buddy!
He looked like he was paying really close attention to Jessi for a minute there as she talked about beaver families and babies. Taking notes maybe? Haha!
Casey on point. Well spoken and put together. Thanks for the insight!
Very interesting guests. Great information. Thanks
He is a great teacher.
28:43 "Such A Remarkable Weird Thing" sounds like an awesome sequel title.
So Casey is doing the same type off job you see here in the Netherlands. We even had a ambassador for water management. (his current job is being King of the Netherlands) But here we have been working on how to use nature it self as a way to both protect us from the water as in how we can increase water quality.
Any chance of more like this please? Both of the guests were superb but the whole was definitely more than the sum of the parts on this one.
Jessi is great! So excited about what she does.
Casey was amazing! Have him back and ask about all the different words for bull trout!
That vest is so cool
This got me thinking about some rather distressing topics.
I had noticed today that all the three wells on the allotment I'm a part of had dried. Which happened last year as well. And watching this led me thinking if the wells are drying up before the end of summer what's happening to our groundwater overall.

And this is just the human angle. What will be the repercussions to our nature? And what kinds of effects will that have on us?
I love that vest
Such a timely show.
Casey was very well spoken. A bunch of the other guests can get kind of awkward, but this guy... He sounded like he was in a TED talk.
Left UA-cam running on my TV and woke up mid Huckleberry. Had to get up and start that part over.
Nothing makes my oyster moister, than a Native American scientist.
I love these videos, it has been a while since you did one. I had no idea hydrology was so interesting, also I am gonna go check out Jessi's channel, it has been a while. Love you SciShow ❤❤❤
I'm not American, but I'm still glad to see the native peoples represented in the scientific communities no matter where in the world it is. just because its a scientifically valid solution to a problem, doesn't mean you're not stepping on someones culture.
When ever I hear the phrase "we use science" I think of Andrew Yang. We need more scientist politicians. Hank Green for Senate!
27:03 the Beaver dropped his food, that's why he's trying to get out of your arms.
Wow this guy is mesmerizing to listen to!
Huck is the best..so adorable and just great
Casey was awesome, with a lot of knowledge, but his smile is strange. It reminds of myself 10/10
I think his smile is weird because he often doesn't smile with his eyes.
What a concept.... science for the betterment of all.
In my day, Huckleberry was a hound dog.
Freeda Peeple with a terrible singing voice
awesome guests! Huck is huge!
I appreciate that the centerpiece of the shelves is a red squirrel with a flag.
I was evacuated from the mendocino complex that was a scary time I thought my whole town was gunna be gone afterwards
I was once tackled by a beaver while riding at night by the Elbow river. I startled it and was between the beaver and the water, when it charged for the water it ran right into the side of my bike just behind the crank, took my bike right out from under me and I hit the pavement, the beaver was in the water before I knew what happened.
Hahahaaaa beaver tackled 😂
the George Takei of hydrologists? love him but his delivery has something
dawww, Huck you've gotten so big!
Make Huckleberry a regular guest.
Fantastic episode. Beavers are so important and I want to see more videos showcasing them. Check out Ben Goldfarb's book "Eager" if you want a really deep dive on the importance of beavers to River restoration.
Reminded me of Joseph Gordon-Levitt. Very interesting.
Love light peace and harmony to you and all on earth, within and beyond now and forever safe journeys infinity
Interesting.i had no real clue this even existed. Or if I did hear about it I've forgotten. It's really interesting.
So... Ten million uears from now, beavers might be the next sapiens?
I dont care if that wouldnt happen, somebody needs to make that sci-fi story
Well... last time we did that sort of Sci-Fi story we made hedgehogs hyperintellegent and claimed they could run at the speed of sound after humans wiped themselves out. Look where we are now. Both teetering on the edge of removing ourselves from the face of this planet in so many different ways. And we also made a Sonic the Hedgehog movie. And we also have a terrible fandom full of these guys who just won't stop making horrible fanart.
There's a scifi story about beavers. They're a bit... angry.
Casey is awesome
7:04
Anybody else concerned for that skeleton? Spreading the fingers wide enough to get around the neck of the femur is not comfortable.
That powerful tsk tsk. Reminds me of old man from family guy.
There was one guy who got a cease n desist letters from the government for taking a local Creek on his property. Turned out they sent the letter to the wrong person er beaver.
I have a question for Casey Ryan, if he responds here, and he may not know the answer. Do any recovery agencies employ the same basic spraying technology as transportation departments and some landscapers but instead of grass seeds use locally native plant seeds?

Hey, is that a beaver in your lap or are you just happy to see me?
