Cub: First question, Joe, how many holms could you fit in the area of the Hermitcraft Holmdell?
Joe: Wow. I would probably say about four hundred.
Cub: If you could speak to the stone you mined to make this area, what would you tell it?
Joe: (in a reassuring whisper) It's okay. You're Etho's problem now.
Cub: What exhibit here did you enjoy making the most?
Joe: I really liked making the library. It's really weird and kind of silly, but I don't know, feels right.
Cub: This is a bit of a personal question, Joe, but how has your passion for inventory management influenced this season?
Joe: Well, it's shown viewers that my passions often lead me into places that are (starts chuckling) not great, and I should probably learn to temper those.
Cub: If a giant yeti showed up here, what would your first action be?
Joe: I would probably try to ski away very quickly.
Cub: Now, if Permit Master was held at your base, what would be the first task you gave participants?
Joe: Oh my gosh, that is such a good one. Well, it would have to be the prize task because that's always how that goes. And I would say, bring in the thing. Bring in your possession that fits least amongst your other possessions.
Cub: And final question, Joe, what is the Joe Hills difference?
Joe: The Joe Hills difference isn't something that can be described. I know this because the only time I've ever had a tarot reading, I asked them that. They're like, “You need to bring a question to the table.” I'm like, “Sure, what's the Joe Hills difference?” And boy, they were all over the place. So, I mean, if a professional diviner who — I mean, that's not really their day job, I think they teach AIs how to program? — but if somebody who owns a deck of tarot cards couldn't figure it out, how could I be expected to answer, you know?
