'''''Stuff You Should Know''''', often abbreviated as '''SYSK''', is a [[podcast]] and video series originally published by [[HowStuffWorks]] (and now by [[iHeartRadio]]) and hosted by Josh Clark and Charles W. "Chuck" Bryant. The podcast, which launched in 2008, educates listeners on a wide variety of topics, often using popular culture as a reference.<ref name="mediashift"/>

From its launch in 2008 through 2025, the podcast consistently appeared in the Top 10 rankings on [[Apple Podcasts]] and [[Spotify]], indicating that it's one of the most popular podcasts in the world.<ref>{{Cite news |date=November 28, 2023 |title=Apple shares the most popular podcasts of 2023 |url=https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2023/11/apple-shares-the-most-popular-podcasts-of-2023/ |access-date=Jan 31, 2024 |work=Apple Newsroom}}</ref><ref name="replacing"/><Ref name=intown/> On October 3, 2018, the podcast started releasing additional short episodes titled Short Stuff, where they cover topics that don't warrant the length of a full episode (e.g. “Killing a Dead Body”).<ref name="grandfatherclocks"/> A number of other types of media, including a TV show and books, have been spun off by the podcast.

==Hosts== ''Stuff You Should Know'' is hosted by two podcasters who first met while working as senior editors at [[HowStuffWorks.com]], Josh Clark<ref name="josh"/> and Charles Wayne "Chuck" Bryant.

===History=== The podcast was launched on April 17, 2008, with Clark as the solo host. Bryant made his debut a month later on May 13, 2008.<ref name="grows"/> Bryant became the permanent cohost on July 15, 2008.<ref name="grows"/> The podcast, which was named by Clark,<ref name="duo"/> began as an attempt to re-purpose some of the written content on HowStuffWorks.com.<ref name="way"/><ref name="QA"/> Clark had never listened to a podcast before he recorded his first episode in 2008.<ref name="mediashift"/><ref name="toronto"/> [[Jesse Thorn]] has held the name up as a model of how a podcast should be named saying "it's like daring the listener ''not'' to listen to it."<ref name="purpose"/>

The podcast has steadily grown in popularity since its introduction and has made appearances at events including [[South by Southwest]] and [[San Diego Comic-Con International|Comic-Con]]. On October 26, 2017, ''Stuff You Should Know'' released their 1000th episode. Several episodes have been recorded during live events, including two during their World Tour of Canada in September and October 2014.<ref name="Canada"/> While in Canada they also participated in the Northwest Podcast Festival,<ref name="northwest"/> at SXSW in 2011 and 2012,<ref name="sxsw"/> and New York Comic Con in 2012 where they recorded their discussion entitled "Time Travel: Science Fact or Science Fiction?"<ref name="way"/><ref name="invades"/>

During the 4th of July weekend in 2011, there was a Stuff You Should Know About America [[Marathon (media)|marathon]] on Sirius XM radio.<ref name="sirius"/> It featured previous episodes, as well as a live segment with [[Wyatt Cenac]] and [[Hallie Haglund]] of ''[[The Daily Show]]'' as well as [[Joe Randazzo]], [[Joe Garden]] and [[Jill Morris]] of ''[[The Onion]]''.<ref name="sirius"/> Their [[420 (cannabis culture)|420th]] episode was on [[medical marijuana]], although this was reportedly a coincidence.<ref name="mars"/>

In 2011, the podcast added "Bonus Videos" to the podcast feed. These consist of humorous 60 second videos where Clark and Bryant converse about subjects they covered on previous podcasts while doing a variety of random activities (playing checkers, getting fitted for a suit, going to a doctor, driving through a car wash). As they speak, the scene changes repeatedly to something completely different, though their conversation continues uninterrupted as though nothing had happened. These clips have also aired during [[Television advertisement|commercial]] slots on [[Science Channel|Science]] and appear on their YouTube channel.

There is one unaired episode on animal detectives that they hope will never be published.<ref name="popular"/> They have repeated a topic three times. They revisited the topic of [[Murphy's Law]] in 2011 after first doing it in 2008. As one of their first episodes, it was under 6 minutes in length. They also accidentally repeated a podcast on customs. The first time was in 2010 and the second was in 2016.<ref name="customs"/> In July 2018, they released an episode on recycling as an update on their first one, recorded over a decade ago.<ref name="recycling"/>

On November 7, 2018, Josh Clark created a podcast called ''The End Of The World with Josh Clark'', a 10-episode series that discusses what dangers lie in humanity's future.<ref name="end"/> {{Asof|2017}}, their office and studio was in the [[Ponce City Market]] in Atlanta.<ref name=intown/> and their studio is slightly larger than a broom closet<ref name="replacing"/> and features "kooky" items listeners have sent in, including wedding invitations and photoshopped movie posters with Clark and Bryant's faces on them.<ref name=intown/> The office has a large mural depicting the formation of an idea, a research library, and giant question mark-shaped conference table.<ref name=intown/> ===Format=== The podcast, which was the second on HowStuffWorks,<ref name="duo"/> has been described as the "heart and soul of the operation,"<ref name="toronto"/> with the "well researched" episodes cover a variety of topics from the fields of "science, history, urban legends, and pop culture, with the occasional conspiracy theory thrown in for good measure."<ref name="way"/> Clark and Bryant have a conversation about the given topic such that, by the end, listeners have a "basic working knowledge of that subject."<ref name="way"/> Clark has said they are on a "never ending quest to explain absolutely everything there is on planet earth and beyond."<ref name="circus"/>

Their "biggest hits" include episodes on [[Spam (food)|Spam]], hangovers, tipping in restaurants, cheese, Barbie, and pinball.<ref name="toronto"/> The topics that get the greatest response from listeners include death and grieving,<ref name="toronto"/> and episodes that received "less enthusiastic feedback" include shows on homelessness/addiction, [[Tourette syndrome|Tourette's Syndrome]], and transgender issues.<ref name="way"/> Episodes are normally [[List_of_Stuff_You_Should_Know_episodes#Series_overview|around 45 minutes]] in length, although for more in-depth topics the show occasionally runs long as an hour or more. Initial episodes were much shorter in duration, often less than 10 minutes.

According to Bryant, one of the reasons the hosts believe the show has been so successful is that they are "definitely not experts" in the myriad subjects they explore; they are instead "just guys who enjoy research and [are] very curious."<ref name="toronto"/> Their formula "is part self-deprecating humor, part infectious wonder and part self-discipline to go their separate ways and do all their own research and reflection before they get to the studio."<ref name="toronto"/> They often try to surprise one another with their research,<ref name="way"/><ref name="popular"/> and do not have a script or a time limit before they sit down to record.<ref name="duo"/><ref name="toronto"/> Likewise, they do not rehearse beforehand.<ref name=intown/>

Most episodes end with listener mail, although there is an occasional segment known as "Administrative Details." Listener mail debuted on November 25, 2008, in the episode named "How Albert Einstein's Brain Worked".<ref name="albert"/> On that episode, they called it "Correction Time." The first time it was known as "Listener Mail" was on January 8, 2009, an episode that was inspired by a listener's email.<ref name="armor"/> During the Listener Mail portion of the podcast on April 11, 2013, a new jingle for the show was introduced.<ref name="brains"/> It was written and recorded by Rusty Matyas of Winnipeg, Manitoba in Canada, a musician and fan.<ref name="brains"/> [https://www.jonbiegen.com Jon Biegen], another fan who covered Matyas' band, The Sheepdogs, has produced several new jingles for the show.<ref name="movies"/>

The show's regular producer is Jeri "Jerome" Rowland, who is assisted by a variety of regular guest producers, including Matt and Noel.<ref name="waves" /><ref name="duo" /><ref name="quiz"/><ref name="placebo"/> Other staff includes Rebecca, the web producer, as well as Sherry and Joe.<ref name="placebo"/> In 2017, there was a staff of 35.<ref name=intown/>

==YouTube== ''Stuff You Should Know'' also has a YouTube channel, which is currently home to audio-only uploads of the podcast episodes. Formerly, it featured animated shorts, a ''This Day in History'' segment, and Josh Clark's series ''Don't Be Dumb''.<ref name="welcometext"/> In addition, the pair also offered live shorts and movie reviews.<ref name="welcome"/>

In ''Don't Be Dumb'', Clark explained a topic while wearing a tweed jacket and bow tie. His posture, gestures, and stilted language were intentionally uncomfortable and awkward.

In another video segment, ''Internet Roundup'', Chuck and Josh highlighted a couple of posts found deep in the web that they found interesting, entreating or amusing. In 2009, Clark and Bryant began a "short lived" webcast.<ref name="zero" /><ref name="webcast"/>

==TV show== A full-length ''Stuff You Should Know'' TV show premiered on January 19, 2013, on the [[Science Channel]], which was owned by [[Discovery Network]], the then-parent company of HowStuffWorks. The show included a pilot and 10 episodes each 30 minutes in length.<ref name="stars"/><ref name="pilot"/> The series was produced by production company School of Humans.

Described as the "love child of the British version of [[The Office (UK TV series)|''The Office'']] and an overheard conversation about science between two reasonably informed guys,"<ref name="csi"/> the show was about a real podcast that is set in a fictional world. Each episode followed Josh and Chuck inside and outside the recording booth, combining the factual information of their podcast with humorous, fictional story lines that align with each podcast topic.<ref name="tvshow"/>

The show had "the attention span of a teenaged boy" and "bounces from scene to scene without explanation or sense."<ref name="csi"/> Focus groups at the 2012 South by Southwest screened episodes and provided feedback for the development of the show, and its pacing in particular.<ref name="way"/>

The lead actress on the show was [[Caitlin Bitzegaio]] of the [[Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre]].<ref name="popular" /> The shows were directed by L.C. Crowley<ref name="cast"/> with a theme song and score composed by The Henry Clay People,<ref name="sxsw"/> the "unofficial house band" of Stuff You Should Know.<ref name="ticks"/> Guests on the show included [[John Hodgman]], [[Sarah Silverman]], [[Neil deGrasse Tyson]], [[Rufus Wainwright]], and [[Michio Kaku]].<ref name="abouttv"/>

The show was canceled after the first season "due to poor ratings",<ref name="ratings"/> although each episode is made available for purchase on [[iTunes]] and [[Google Play]]. It was the most expensive pilot episode ever produced by the Discovery Channel.<ref name="way"/>

==Outside activities== Previously, as with the other podcasts offered by HowStuffWorks, ''Stuff You Should Know'' had its own [[blog]] updated daily by its hosts and often featuring the same type of material found in the podcasts, often with show follow-ups.

Clark and Bryant were the co-hosts for the Science of Cyborgs event hosted by the [[Science & Entertainment Exchange]].<ref name="featured" />

There is a X/Twitter account, an Instagram account, and a Facebook page for SYSK, as well as a now official Facebook group for the SYSK Army, which was created by four listeners on January 30, 2011 (and became official when linked to the SYSK Facebook page on May 10, 2017). The group continues to be run by three of the original four creators, as well as other listeners in administrator and moderator roles. There is no involvement by the hosts of the show, but they have frequently mentioned the group and the SYSK Army on podcast episodes.

===Microlending=== Starting in 2009, after doing an episode on how [[microlending]] works, the show began encouraging listeners to make loans on the online microlending site [[Kiva (organization)|Kiva]].<ref name="mediashift"/> A ''Stuff You Should Know'' team had raised $150,000 by the middle of 2010,<ref name="mediashift"/> and more than $2.75 million by November 2014.<ref name="kiva"/> In 2009 they challenged [[Stephen Colbert]] to see whose team could raise $100,000 first<ref name="colbert"/> and they "beat the pants off of" him, reaching that goal in three months.<ref name="microlend"/>

The lending team is now run by fan volunteers,<ref name="mediashift"/> has since consistently ranked among the top five teams in terms of both donations and users. {{As of|2014|11}} the team ranked #7 for new users among new Kiva users, and in the "Friends" category of teams, ranked #2 for new users and amount loaned.<ref name="kiva"/>

===Books=== Clark and Bryant also present two longer and more in-depth audio programs featuring interviews and portions recorded [[Location shooting|on location]] available for purchase as [[audiobook]]s, which are entitled ''The Super Stuffed Guide to the Economy'' and ''The Super Stuffed Guide to Happiness''.

The two podcast hosts have also written a book with Nils Parker entitled ''Stuff You Should Know: An Incomplete Compendium of Mostly Interesting Things.'' The book was published in November 2020 and covers a wide range of topics including history, psychology, pop culture, and science. They later published a kids edition.<ref name=static/><ref name=nieman/>

===Cooperative for Education=== In February 2010,<ref name="CoEd"/> Clark, Bryant, and Rowland traveled to Guatemala to promote [[Cooperative for Education]], an organization which gives textbooks to schools in Guatemala to be rented by students for a small fee that is then deposited into an account that will be used to replace old textbooks in the future.<ref name="bites"/> They produced a pair of podcasts on the topic.<ref name="CoEd"/>

=== Trivial Pursuit === On July 7, 2021, [[Hasbro]] released a special edition of ''Trivial Pursuit: The Stuff You Should Know Edition''.<ref name=hasbro/> The game is based on episodes from the podcast and contains categories of History, Pop Culture, Myths, Legends, & Conspiracies, Science & Tech, Humans, and SYSK Selects. These topics were chosen by hosts Josh and Chuck. Designed for 3 to 6 players, ages 16 and older, the game includes 600 questions with answers from various SYSK episodes. The game offers those stuck on questions various lifeline help such as "Stuff You Should Skip". The first player gaining each one of the 6 category tokens wins.

There are some geeks here and there, but also super cool people, and families and kids, and old people."<ref name="age"/>

''[[Entertainment Weekly]]'' chose the TV show in early February 2013 as #7 for their "The Must List: The Top 10 Things We Love This Week," writing, "Whether you're curious about [[Beehive|bee colonies]] or [[Weather modification|weather control]], Josh Clark and Chuck Bryant have the scoop."<ref name="EW"/> The podcast has been said to cover "a truly staggering range of topics."<ref name="way"/>
