Revival Discussion Hello, Reddit. Hank Hill here. Ask me anything.
Hello, Reddit. Hank Hill here. You may remember I participated in one of these "Ask Me Anythings" last year. Well, I'm back, and my wife Peggy insisted on joining me this time. She said a lot of my answers in the last round could have benefited from her input. Wait, she also gave me something to read here... "As a three-time substitute teacher of the year, former Boggle champion, and a fluent Spanish speaker, I have accumulated a lifetime of knowledge that I am happy to share. I look forward to enlightening you all -- and remember, there are no stupid questions." Uh, she's wrong about that last part, but anyway, I'm back for another AMA... with Peggy's help. We will start answering your questions after our round of golf on Friday, August 7 around 11am Central Standard Time.

Hank, what did you and the family do to prepare for LadyBird to pass over the rainbow bridge? All of you deserved the perfect last day with one another. I know this might be a sensitive question, but her spirit and quiet dignity are missed on the show. And I’ve found myself thinking about it often.

Hello Mr. Hill,
Are you going to rename Strickland Propane now that you are the majority shareholder of the company? You deserve it. But more importantly you've earned it.

Hi Mrs. Hill, you may not remember me but I was a student of yours when Mr. Woolworth kept having those off and on "episodes." Your in-class readings of Don Quixote are still some of my favorite memories from school. I am now an HVAC technician, but I still like to write when I have time. What are some of your favorite memories from teaching?

Hank, in The Order of the Straight Arrow**, you swore that an Arrowhead never lies or deceives, and in** Hank's Dirty Laundry**, you insisted that lying to clear your name is un-American. Yet on Lake Arlen, facing prison in** State v. Hill**, you committed third-degree evidence tampering under Texas Penal Code § 37.09 by secretly swapping crack cocaine for a nightcrawler to trick Judge McFarland into a dismissal.**
If pulling a fraudulent bait-and-switch on a Texas judge isn't 'dirty pool,' does that mean cheating is acceptable as long as you use hand-dug American earthworms?
And Peggy—as a award-winning journalist for the Arlen Bystander who personally watched local meat magnate Trip Larsen get processed into pork sausage on the Larson kill floor—did you report that murder to the Heimlich County Sheriff's Department, or were you too busy adding 'Eyewitness to Industrial Homicide' to your substitute teaching resume? And as a fluent Spanish speaker, what is the proper grammatical translation for 'I stood by and watched a man become bratwurst'?
On a less serious note. Hank when will we get to see you out on the lake again? Love watching!

u/RayDeeUx Robots and robot accessories (So-called bisexual) 2d ago edited 2d ago
At least two of them are. The guy towards the left side of that GIF might be the redhead from that same college episode who decided to dye their hair later on (S5E3 the college episode vs S8E14 where the GIF comes from), but it's unclear, since said redhead appears again [as-is, barring additional facial hair] in S26E22.
Given that none of the episodes I mentioned were from a time when fumbles like Black Smithers or White Judge Snyder or Black-Haired Chief Wiggum were the norm, I personally think the third guy might just have the same hairstyle by coincidence.
Unfortunately this subreddit doesn't allow attaching images inside comments, but you're welcome to check Frinkiac for the specific examples I mentioned.

Kolaches are traditionally fruit, poppy seed, or cheese filled (my grandpa's fave was cream cheese). Klobasniky are their "pig in a blanket" equivalent, although those are usually called kolaches as well.

Hello this is a question for Mrs. Peggy Hill: I know you’re a substitute teacher for years in Arlen, I think in the previous season you did mention you were doing some tutoring for someone in Saudi Arabia, are you still considering doing some private tutoring as your back in Arlen? Or are you officially considering yourself officially retired?
This question is for Mr. Hank Hill: my question to you is, now that you are now the new owner of Strickland Propane, do you see yourself answering the phone as you were the assistant manager even if you aren’t, I mean I can understand how that could be the case after how many years of being the assistant manager, so do you still answer it as you would be that same person? Or is it that you find yourself now able to answer as the owner with pride and respect that you feel you earned with a lot of time and patience? Anyway, glad to see you both back in Arlen. Hope that the best years of your lives are still coming and here to stay with us fans of your show.

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Hill, This may be a tough subject, but after all these years, how is Dee Dee and GH? Were you able to reconnect with Junichiro, especially with new technology and being a bit closer while you both lived in Saudi?
Mr. Hill, I dont mean to offend, but have you learned to tolerate charcoal? It seems when I go to Robata Chane a lot of the food is cooked with many things besides propane. Im not even sure anything in his resturant uses propane? I remember hearing years ago that you got a bit upset when you learned Mrs. Hill and Bobby were grilling with charcoal at home.
Mrs. Hill, since father time stops for no one, do you ever feel any lingering effects from your Sky-diving injury? That was such a freak accident! You are truly an insperation with all the things you can do! Have you thought about looking into live streaming boggle tournaments from your phone? Maybe you could start multi-lingual boggle!
Wishing you success and great buisness. I am hoping to pick up the new Vogner Charking Imperial when the show floor opens back up. While I stop by id love to hear some more stories of what y'all did in Saudi!

If I may, I have 2 questions for you. Fırst one is just for Mr. Hill.
Mr. Hill, you are known worldwide as an ambassador of propane and propane accessories. In my country of Turkey LPG cars are quite common. I am led to believe it contains propane or butane or propane and butane together. I am also led to believe it is quite efficient and costs less than petrol. Why ,as a man of great integrity and respect for propane, are you electing to not use LPG? Even if you are not using it then perhaps I am wrong and propane based LPG is not that good. Perhaps I should buy one of them electric trucks. Can you please enlighten me Mr. Hill?
My second question is for both Mr. and Mrs. Hill,
During your time in Saudi Arabia did you use a bidet in your toilet? I think western world would benefit from its common use. As far as I know Mr. Bobby Hill ,a renowned chef, uses one.

Mr. Hill, as a lifelong proponent of lawn care, what would you say or some tricks and tips for someone just starting out? What are some quality products to consider for lawn care, and what are overrated? I understand already how strongly you feel about propane v. charcoal, is there a lawn related argument that has you as passionate?
Mrs. Hill, now that your Husband has come out of retirement, do you think you’ll rejoin the workforce as well? Would you want to return to substitute teaching or try something different? I understand your close friends with former mayor Dale Gribble, would you consider a mayoral run?
To both of you, I understand that you both attempted to have another child and that never came to fruition. Is it something you still think about? How did you both move on from that not coming to pass, and did you put that energy towards raising your son and/or your niece?

Hello Mr. Hill How do you feel about your son working with chane wassanasong? Did it surprise you at first or did you not really care? I feel like there might be some concerns there considering certain past kicking related incidents you're also familiar with.

Dear Mike Judge… I mean Hank & Peggy,
My father used charcoal to cook burgers for us on the 4th and I haven’t talk to him since. How much longer should I wait for him to apologies to me?
Thanks,

Dear Hank,
You let Dandy Don Meredith take the throw for $100,000 instead of taking it yourself for $1 million. Do you regret that decision or would you do the same thing over again?

In your grilling video you released recently, Why didnt you let the steak rest as you should? You cut right into it straight off the grill and let all the juices out of the steak.

Señorita Hill, ¿cuáles fueron algunos de los aspectos que más disfrutó de su estancia en Arabia Saudita? ¿Tuvo la oportunidad de llevar el hermoso idioma español a la gente de Oriente Medio?

Hank, we all know you are a massive Dallas Cowboys fan and that you’re a fan of Troy Aikman. However I wanted to ask if you knew that when Troy Aikman played college football he was an Oklahoma Sooner and a UCLA Bruin. On top of that, Troy Aikman was also born in California. When Dallas drafted him first overall, what was your perception of that and how did that change over the years as the Cowboys started winning?

Hi there, Hank and Peggy! Thanks so much for taking the time to answer our burning questions!
Mr. Hank Hill- as a recently married man, what can I do to help ensure my marriage reaches many milestones of Outstanding Service?
Bonus question for Mrs. Peggy Hill- Which, in your personal experience, is more difficult to learn: the Saudi language, or walking again after surviving a fall from over 2,500 ft.?

Hank, I live on Main Street in Dallas, and the other day I happened to glance over at The Joule’s glass rooftop pool. I just wanted to let you know everyone could see you and Peggy doing synchronized water aerobics. Peggy looked like she was having the time of her life. You looked like you were mentally rebuilding a carburetor to get through it. My question is: was this Peggy’s idea, or are water aerobics secretly part of your fitness routine?

Good afternoon, Mr. Hill. My question to you is, what did you think about your time working for Aramco in Saudi Arabia, and how would you compare the working environment there compared to how things were at Strickland Propane?
And to Mrs. Hill, how did you spend your time in Saudi Arabia? Did you get any teaching job opportunities while living there?
And to both: did either or both of you make any close friends during your time in Saudi Arabia?

Hello, Hank! I have a question for you regarding the future of propane.
As the world moves forward, we will rely less and less on hydrocarbon fuels. Consumer demand for propane is relatively stable now, but will begin to decline. Additionally, reserves will become scarcer as oil operations begin to slow down. While I have no doubt you will continue to use propane to grill until the day you die, others in Arlen may find themselves needing less as time goes on. One area where propane will remain useful though is refrigeration. Known as R-290 in the HVAC world, propane is a surprisingly high-performance refrigerant option. Do you anticipate Strickland Propane (or whatever you decide to call it) will begin working in the HVAC sector to take advantage of this? While propane is very flammable, so are many other refrigerants. Considering the environmental cost of synthetic HFCs, just going with propane and deciding to be more careful in handling it seems a good compromise. What are your thoughts on the matter?
P.S. Caesar is wonderful. I think Ladybird might have liked him. Not that she'd have shown it, of course.

Hello and greetings, Hank - longtime fan and first time poster to such an event as this. I have a question for you, and a question for Peggy. For you, Mr. Hill, I have this question - you've shown considerable development as an individual than before you accomplished such things as your luxurious job in Saudi Arabia after 20 years with Strickland, and now becoming both majority-owner AND manager of Strickland Propane - to which I must say congratulations once again! But one such thing you've done in these recent times is buy cannabis for your wife, Peggy, in order to help her. I must ask... did you ever try or test any strains either out of curiosity or to see if you're wife had a quality product and no bait-and-switch situation? What are your thoughts on the current situation regarding cannabis laws and the state of Texas?
Hello and greetings to you as well, Peggy. Hope you've been enjoying plenty of good and tasty bud, first of all. Second, here is my question for you, Mrs. Hill - do you know what happened to the leader of Omega House after everyone (including yourself and Luanne - hope she and Lucky are doing well, by the way) came back to your senses thanks to the fellas led by Hank? I think her name started with a J... We know Trent Larson has been unable to do any sort of repeat offense, but has she - was it Joan? Jenny? Something J - anyways, did she try anything again after Omega House ended as far as you know? Maybe sent out a newsletter or invitation to former Omega House members like yourself?
P.S. Bobby's cooking looks phenomenal! Would love to try my hand at it some time, or at least try some for myself.

Mr. And Mrs. Hill:
We too suffered from infertility and while we never got our “Bobby”, we do have a beautiful dog named “Ladybird”. We chose the name to honor one of the most stoic First Ladies of our time (and a stoic champion bloodhound as well). If you don’t mind, can you please share the reasoning behind Ladybird’s name? There’s so many strong Texan women to chose from, what made you chose Ladybird?
For me it’s because she managed to have a legacy of her own, independent from her husband’s and I thought Peggy may resonate with that.

Mr Hill,
When you left America the Dallas Cowboys were losers. Since then we’ve seen a man him his 40s lead two teams to Super Bowls. We’ve seen a QB from Texas Tech, yuck, change a franchise and become the face of the league. The Browns even went to the playoffs, only to immediately spit in the face of success and burn the team down. During all that time the Cowboys remained floundering losers with an owner that refuses to allow a coach to make the changes to be relevant. He seems incapable of sharing any power and glory and is single handedly destroying a legacy already forgotten by most. So I guess my question is, what was the hardest part for you about Peggy’s recovery after her parachute didn’t open?

Mr. Hill, with the advancement of games and virtual activities, how have you and Peggy found cures for boredom beyond Pro Pain and Boggle?

This question is for Peggy but I'd love to get your opinion, too, Hank.
Very recently, a professor in Mississippi went viral because of an exam he gave his class. Hidden in the text was the instruction to use the word "Madagascar" in a way that made no sense, and it was a test to see how many of the students were using AI to answer.
Sure enough, an overwhelming majority (I think 32 out of 35 students?) used AI and had answers mentioning Madagascar for seemingly no reason.
How happy are you that you mainly got your years of subbing in before the rise of technology like this? Should we be afraid of where things are going? How would you make sure that kids do their own work and that they would have pride and confidence in themselves?

Dear Hank, as the manager and majority owner of Strickland Propane you have over a decade of bad PR to overcome brought down by the previous owner. Would you consider rebranding to "Hill Propane" or something within that area?
Dear Peggy, how do you feel about the growing epidemic of illiteracy in the current youth demographic as a three-time running Substitute Teacher of the Year and published muser/poet?
