Things I love about this video: 1. The extent of the collection (bison in bulk storage cartons)! 2. Climate control concerns in the refrigerated area (my archivist is showing, isn't it?) 3. Phylus cabintetsis 4. Emily's bracelet (seriously, that is some awesome hardware) 5. Campus orgy 6. This is probably one of the best shot and edited videos I've seen on TH-cam.
"... but I have a fluffy orange boyfriend named..." Mr. Howl, as in the noise? Or is it Mr. Howell, like Gilligan's Island? Or... going out on a limb here... is it Mr. Howell, after the famous anthropologist F. Clark Howell? Inquiring minds want to know. =)
At least 50% of the time I spend on the Internet is watching high quality, educational content like this. I don't understand why anyone would every say time wasted on the Internet is waste.
I would gladly spend days wondering around that place being shown every single exhibit! Not usually a museum-y kind of person but that would be awesome. Fascinating.
This show is awesome. Seriously. This is the kind of reality tv i want to watch. Emily is awesome and the whole team behind the scenes does an amazing job.
Emily you are seriously one of my new favorite people. You should have a Brain Scoop tour sometime where you have meetups at various natural history and zoological museums around the country.
Like the top comments say, I think that this will be a great youtube channel for various reasons. Firstly, Emily is like the nerdy, zoologically inclined queen of youtube. Secondly, Aranda and Hank are editing gods, and highlight educational things along with hilarity. Also, it's something a lot of people are interested in yet don't have entertaining online resources about. ALSO, this will probably be good for their dept. Lastly, ERMERGERD, I LOVE ZOOLOGY. So glad Hank/Aranda support this.
If I ever went to this museum, it would probably become my second favorite series of rooms I've ever been in. Second to the archaeology lab at my university
One of the reason that people find you so amazing Emily (other then that you are obviously smart and funny) is that your personality is not what anyone expects from someone that works with dead things. Most people picture Norman Bates, not a bright, happy personable girl in a cardigan. DFTBA
*cries in it still has brains on it* I entirely blame this show for getting me into vulture culture and sparking my bone curiosity/obsession. A few months ago my partner gave me a possum skull they found in the woods as a present. I miss this show a lot so I'm going back and watching a bunch of it again
I know most of these comments are in praise of Emily (which is cool, because she's AWESOME and totally deserves it. Fo realz), but I would just like to compliment Michael Aranda on his superb editing. I always like the style of the videos he puts together. Four for you, Michael Aranda. You go, Michael Aranda.
I am so glad this place now has a channel - here is hoping with more and more interest the museum can move to a bigger place to display all those amazing creatures.
You should do a "Stories With Emily" series (or some more creative name) where Emily tells stories about her experiences working in the museum, or just funny stories. I love her enthusiasm and passion for her work; I think she'd be a great storyteller!
I am so freaking stoked on all of this. Emily (it has been readily established) is totally fantastic, but I would just like to add that I love the production; the editing style, the cinematography(?) and the block letters, the way that the that the voice over/music is used. It's just really clean and I think it does a lot towards making the show really interesting and showcasing Emily perfectly (that last part sounded creepy, but ya). Thanks you guys, awesome work Michael.
Hey Michael, I just wanted to say that I really dig the music on this show so far. Its a nice counterpoint to such a potentially morbid subject and it makes me smile.
I feel like saying, "You're adorable" might undermine everything about you. Like how intelligent you are, how informed you are on what you absolutely love, how hilarious you are, etc.. But you honestly are "adorable" as well.
I'm down in Gillette Wyoming. I have a friend who is the Asst' Coroner here in Gillette. I just sent her a link to this TH-cam channel. She will LOVE IT!
It's so great how you are so excited by what you do! It really inspires me because I want to break into the science field (preferably in microbiology) after I graduate, and it's great to have role models like you.
wow the beatles were really cool, in that we are trusting their ability over ours, even though they would usually be called pests. I love it! Probably wouldn't have learnt that elsewhere!
Holy cow, this is the best thing ever! Emily, you're so smart and talented and funny and you're a natural in front of the camera and WOW! I loved this. Can't wait for more!!!
This show is fantastic!!!!! Its educational , interesting , funny, and Emily you are just so captivating! I've watched it four times already! I will be waiting in suspense until your next installment!
I had to scroll down and not watch the bird room part, but other than that, I am way more interested in this channel than I ever thought I would be. I'm sure your enthusiasm is more than half the reason.
I'm a tad squeamish with the whole dead animal thing, but I think Emily's awesomeness completely cancels it out. Like. Never have I been more interested in refrigerators of dead mammals.
This is my new favorite channel. I absolutely love zoology and Emily is so funny and a great teacher/tour guide person! I also love all the captions :)
Practically everything Emily says is a hilarious quotable wonder. I wanted to quote back the funniest lines from the video but there were just too many. My brain now feels squishy in a delighted, happy-fuzz kind of way.
It makes me so ridiculously happy to see how well this is taking off! I thought you were charming and charismatic in Hank's video and I love you more and more every time I see you post on tumblr (in a non-creepy loving-over-the-internet-because-you're-awesome sort of way). So excited to see more! :D
I would love to know more about the Phylus cabinetsis. What does it eat? Why does it live in it's specific habitat? What other species does it interact with? Love Brain Scoop, and this is just awesome!
Video excellence, and not surprised. I bet when Hank was hanging out with Emily during his first visit, he was thinking, "I have discovered TH-cam Gold."
This is absolutely fantastic, hilarious, and magnificent. FIrst, seeing all that stuff is fascinating and I'm SO excited to learn more. Second, I love the fact that Michael and Hank and Karen all collaborated with you on this. It's so awesome that they were so enthusiastic about supporting you. And third, I love your personality/voice/quirkiness so much. I laughed a lot. Also I had to close my eyes at the beetle part. Guhhh
I ALREADY LOVE THIS.. EMILY IS SO AWESOME. It might be odd trying to describe how good this chanel is to other people without sounding like a crazy person!!
Emily- you're amazing! I've always been a bit unhappy about taxidermied animals when I've been around them in person(there's something about the texture of the fur/feathers), but I'm really enjoying being able to see them like this so I can actually appreciate it. I had been wondering how a collection like this could be used (other than as a record), so hearing about the archaeologists etc was very interesting!
Poor bunny never got the fame of Soon Raccoon.
I'm so happy that this channel exists! It's obvious that Emily knows and loves her subject. The beetles were my favourite part :D
Love that they casually zoom in on the bugs as the mount each other. xD
Things I love about this video:
1. The extent of the collection (bison in bulk storage cartons)!
2. Climate control concerns in the refrigerated area (my archivist is showing, isn't it?)
3. Phylus cabintetsis
4. Emily's bracelet (seriously, that is some awesome hardware)
5. Campus orgy
6. This is probably one of the best shot and edited videos I've seen on TH-cam.

This never got an answer, and because of that I am sad.
I seriously love Emily. She's so chill and funny. Very charismatic, and I love that she loves everything about the museum.
Was this the actual time you said: "(...) it still has brains on it."????
At no time before that was it ever said in a published segment of dissection. Might be a good thing for "Ask Emily"
This is literally my favorite thing on the internet. Between Brain Scoop and Oddities, my life is complete.
Finally see the real brain scoop!
At least 50% of the time I spend on the Internet is watching high quality, educational content like this. I don't understand why anyone would every say time wasted on the Internet is waste.
Prehensile tailed porcupine?! You didnt take Kimosabe did you? 😱
Qupid VOneOhOne Haha. I love Kemosabe.
"Phylus cabinetsis" -- worth watching for that alone... Thank you, Emily!
I would gladly spend days wondering around that place being shown every single exhibit! Not usually a museum-y kind of person but that would be awesome. Fascinating.
This show is awesome. Seriously. This is the kind of reality tv i want to watch.
Emily is awesome and the whole team behind the scenes does an amazing job.

Oh my god she's perfect, complete deadpan the whole time...hilarious and informative
I love that I live in a world that can provide me with entertainment such as this.
I laughed out loud at the bunny on the floor. "But he only has one ear." WHAT THE TIMING WAS SO GOOD. Emily you are a comedienne.
I love how excited you are about working/volunteering in a museum! And how excited you got when talking about Archaeology! Keep up the amazing work!
So jelly of Mr. Howell. So cute, so charming, and so smart!
One of the reason that people find you so amazing Emily (other then that you are obviously smart and funny) is that your personality is not what anyone expects from someone that works with dead things. Most people picture Norman Bates, not a bright, happy personable girl in a cardigan. DFTBA

I need this job more than anything in the whole world.
And she is so adorbs.
I really like Michael Aranda's style. The jump cuts, typography, sound design. Pretty awesome.
you have got to be the most interesting person one could possibly meet at a party. and clearly you love what you do. also your editor is humorous.
I know most of these comments are in praise of Emily (which is cool, because she's AWESOME and totally deserves it.

Guys, I visited this museum a few days ago and it is the coolest place I have ever been.
You should do a "Stories With Emily" series (or some more creative name) where Emily tells stories about her experiences working in the museum, or just funny stories. I love her enthusiasm and passion for her work; I think she'd be a great storyteller!
I love her. So enthusiastic and entertaining, with some education thrown in there!

Hey Michael, I just wanted to say that I really dig the music on this show so far. Its a nice counterpoint to such a potentially morbid subject and it makes me smile.
The bird room is my favourite so far, I hope we go through there slowly in the future
I love this! The contents of the museum are fascinating, Emily is a natural on camera... easily one of my favorite new channels on TH-cam.
Meeting you and visiting that museum had just made my Bucket List!
I'm really not a sciency person. But watching videos like yours or Hank's on youtube has taught me so much interesting stuff!
I feel like saying, "You're adorable" might undermine everything about you. Like how intelligent you are, how informed you are on what you absolutely love, how hilarious you are, etc.. But you honestly are "adorable" as well.
I am SO exited ti watch this show. I can tell it will very quickly become one of my favorite channels.
that cheetah scared the crap out of me! Took forever for my heart to stop pounding!
I'm down in Gillette Wyoming. I have a friend who is the Asst' Coroner here in Gillette. I just sent her a link to this TH-cam channel. She will LOVE IT!
Emily, you're such a good presenter! This was really interesting, can't wait for the next episode.
It's so great how you are so excited by what you do! It really inspires me because I want to break into the science field (preferably in microbiology) after I graduate, and it's great to have role models like you.
This is my favourite show and Emily is one of my favourite people.
wow the beatles were really cool, in that we are trusting their ability over ours, even though they would usually be called pests. I love it! Probably wouldn't have learnt that elsewhere!
I've been procrastinating from watching this for weeks but omfg I loved it i wish I'd watched it sooner
This is going to be one of my new favorite shows.
It was the right decision to subscribe to this. Educational AND entertaining! The perfect alliterative combination.
It's pretty cool that she has permission to use the museum content for making these videos.
Holy cow, this is the best thing ever! Emily, you're so smart and talented and funny and you're a natural in front of the camera and WOW! I loved this. Can't wait for more!!!
I'm freaking addicted to you, Emily. Can't wait to see more.
Also, that brain scoop looks just like the microspatulas I've had to use in chem labs.
Emily you're so natural. I'm real happy you are now going to be making videos.
This is quickly becoming one of my favorite channels on TH-cam, really great stuff!
I lost it at the filing cabinet pun. Oh man that was brilliant.
Emily has got to be a long-lost Green sibling. Loving this already!
I love this. Who knew learning about dead things could be so much fun?
I thoroughly enjoyed this video. Especially the bits where Michael decided to add captions
This show is fantastic!!!!! Its educational , interesting , funny, and Emily you are just so captivating! I've watched it four times already! I will be waiting in suspense until your next installment!
I had to scroll down and not watch the bird room part, but other than that, I am way more interested in this channel than I ever thought I would be. I'm sure your enthusiasm is more than half the reason.
I'm a tad squeamish with the whole dead animal thing, but I think Emily's awesomeness completely cancels it out. Like. Never have I been more interested in refrigerators of dead mammals.
This is perfect. Haven't been this excited about a TH-cam series in a while!
this is the greatest thing. I am going to LOVE this series. Emily you are wonderful!
As a wildlife studies student I think this is the coolest thing ever! I look forward to learning more!
I love Emily. her personaliy makes her very attrative which is THE BEST KIND OF CHICK EVER!
This is my new favorite channel. I absolutely love zoology and Emily is so funny and a great teacher/tour guide person! I also love all the captions :)
I've been on a Bones-watching marathon, so watching this was just perfect. :D Can't wait to see more from this channel, you're great!
This is my favorite youtube channel of the whole universe of the world
I have nothing more to say than: I love Emily SO MUCH. It still has brains on it :'D
I can definitely tell Michael wrote the intro and outro music. I likey.
Practically everything Emily says is a hilarious quotable wonder. I wanted to quote back the funniest lines from the video but there were just too many. My brain now feels squishy in a delighted, happy-fuzz kind of way.
Man, this is so well edited. I can't wait for this to be my new favorite channel. Kinda already is!
I really like the extra visual word line things on the screen. And Emily of course, Emily is great.
the beetle thing is so cool! never something i would have thought of.
It's here it's here it's here! I feel like I've been waiting for this for months and now it's perfect and it's heeeeeerrrrreeee!
Ok. I have to confess, I didn't think it would be as good as it was. Yeah, I really liked that. Well done!
I love it when you talk nerdy to us! (You're so adorable! Excited to see more!)
It makes me so ridiculously happy to see how well this is taking off! I thought you were charming and charismatic in Hank's video and I love you more and more every time I see you post on tumblr (in a non-creepy loving-over-the-internet-because-you're-awesome sort of way). So excited to see more! :D
I would love to know more about the Phylus cabinetsis. What does it eat? Why does it live in it's specific habitat? What other species does it interact with?
Love Brain Scoop, and this is just awesome!
This is classic Michael Aranda. You guys make a great team. Never really liked bio, but the two of you are stellar. DFTBA!
I'm so glad Hank found this museum!
As I lover of science and dead things, I think I have found my new favorite channel.
Dead things usually give me the creeps, but this is actually really cool. Emily is adorable and makes it all interesting.
Video excellence, and not surprised. I bet when Hank was hanging out with Emily during his first visit, he was thinking, "I have discovered TH-cam Gold."
The thing I love most about these videos is how casually you talk about the animals...'Oh yeah, we also have a Zebra'
Your enthusiasm is contagious! Love this channel already!
This is absolutely fantastic, hilarious, and magnificent. FIrst, seeing all that stuff is fascinating and I'm SO excited to learn more. Second, I love the fact that Michael and Hank and Karen all collaborated with you on this. It's so awesome that they were so enthusiastic about supporting you. And third, I love your personality/voice/quirkiness so much. I laughed a lot.
Also I had to close my eyes at the beetle part. Guhhh
I am loving the editing and typography of these :D awesome job michael! Also emily has the best sound bites/random phrases and sentences bahaha
This is the cutest, funniest, smartest thing ever.
I've watched this three times now, and I could still watch it again, so much entertainment! ^_^
I ALREADY LOVE THIS.. EMILY IS SO AWESOME. It might be odd trying to describe how good this chanel is to other people without sounding like a crazy person!!
Ah, everything about this is so fantastic!
Great script/narration from Emily and awesome editing by Michael!
Can't wait to see more! :D
Emily- you're amazing! I've always been a bit unhappy about taxidermied animals when I've been around them in person(there's something about the texture of the fur/feathers), but I'm really enjoying being able to see them like this so I can actually appreciate it.
I had been wondering how a collection like this could be used (other than as a record), so hearing about the archaeologists etc was very interesting!
So excited to see Brain Scoop up and running! Keep up the good work.
This is SO AWESOME. Definitely my favorite new show here on the youtubes.
I am so looking forward to all of the videos that will happen on this channel! Awesome introduction, Emily!
I just LOVE Emily... Not in a creepy way, but in an "I admire you muchly" way :)
The music is very catchy. I like it.
Also, those beetles...
What an awesome show!! So informative and entertaining and so well edited!! Good job Michael!!
its like they just have leftover taxidermied surprises in every corner. it kinda awesome
