·Nov 3, 2024

[music] Hey, it's me, Destin. Welcome back to Smarter Every Day. This is different; it's really a big deal. I have been invited to go to the White House to sit down with the President of the United States of America for 10 to 12 minutes to discuss issues that matter to me and matter to you. This is a huge honour, and I want to get it right.

The interview is framed as a response to the State of the Union address, which you can watch on Tuesday at 9 p.m. Eastern time at youtube.com/whitehouse. I would love for this to be different. I want to ask questions about scientific topics, something I care about. What about the personal things about being the president? Wouldn't that be cool? We have a huge opportunity here.

The format is going to be really cool; they created a small version of my office that's going to be there at the White House, so we can just hang out and talk like we always do, except the President is there. We shot a short promo for it out in LA, and I'll introduce you to the other two YouTube creators that's gonna be there with me.

Okay, so we're in LA, and they have created sets for us. This is the Smarter Every Day set. You got Ingrid and sWooZie - My good side. -[laughs] This is where I'm at. [whispering] Gotta be quiet.

["Hail to the Chief"-style music] Ingrid, you've got a lot of beauty stuff and many other things, right? - And life things, you know? [music] There is no other country on Earth where something like this could happen, and I'm extremely excited and honored to be taking part.

So, here's how we're going to come up with questions: Number one: click that link right there. It'll create a Tweet and automatically populate the "YouTube Asks Obama" hashtag. Do that! I'll be filtering through those. Number two: leave an intelligent, respectful comment on this video; or number three: go to the Ask Reddit thread I'm going to be making. People are going to be upvoting and downvoting; we got to get the best questions in front of the Commander-in-Chief.

I'm most excited about your science questions and about your fun questions for the President. Anyway, please check those out and watch the thing. It's going to be live on January 15th at youtube.com/whitehouse.

So that's it! I'm Destin, let's get smarter every day, together, at the White House with the President of the United States. Have a good one. [music]
