I love the emergency mummy wrappings being a roll of Toilet Paper. 😂
Many years ago into the future I enjoyed every episode the carpet bagger posted. Beware of the Otters and robot turkeys.
Oh! Thank you for filling in that empty spot on your hat with a new button, I noticed and am now relieved. Best wishes, Ms. OCD. 🤗
One thing I learned about LA is that it’s the pits! 😮
We used to go to the tar pits quite often when I was a kid. (And the museum next door.) They had open pits where we could watch them working archaeological digs!
The tar pits are fascinating to me. Just the sheer amount of ice age, and before , fossils is mind-blowing. Incidentally, only one human skeleton has been found in the pits, a woman that dated to be 10 thousand years old. The time travel store was interesting, but I was disappointed the TARDIS didn't show up.
10,000 year old human if you believe that evolution garbage. I’m a bible believing Christian and the earth is about 7,000 years old. The Flood of Noah was about 4500 years ago. So that human could have been pre flood or post flood time period
I worked next door at the LA County Museum of Art. Guests would ask if we were re-doing the roof because of the smell from the Tar Pits!
Hey Jenny, glad to see you.
The LA Brea Tar Pits was my first job I had when I was 18 aww memories,
Walmart was my first job when I was 18 away memories
Bwahaha,the camel😂🐫🐪 That will never,EVER,get old🐫🐪😹
Yeah, the baggers still a little salty about that.. 😂
Hughes lol,yep😋
I lived in Echo Park until age 13 and visited the Tar Pits several times. They terrified me! The mammoth struggling in the tar while the mate and baby stood helplessly on the shore made me sob the first time I saw it. I now live in Chicago and enjoy watching videos of SoCal especially Disneyland which is how I landed on this one. Thanks for the interesting post!
Good Evening Jacob and Jennifer 🙋🏽.
Awwwwww adorable fox squirrel! also dam you camels leave Jacob alone!
I love anything to do with prehistoric animals I'm a secret nerd!
I was eating some chicken noodle soup when you started showing that fake poop, and I literally could not take another bite. Thanks Jacob.
Chicken noodles soup yuk I couldn't eat that
The La breakfast tars pits are on my bucket list
I glad you want there
La breakfast. Gotta love autocorrect. 😂
Used to go here in grade school for field trips :) Thanks for a great video, Jake.
Visited the area several times. Always fascinated since a kid with the tar pits but somehow never made it on my visits. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Glad you made it to the tar pits there's so many museums and fun places to visit in LA if you get the chance grab a bite to eat at bobs big boy , dupars , Mel's drive in , pinks hotdogs and Randy's donuts but make sure to hit up the original spots !!! Have fun kids !!!
I went to the tar pits just a few months ago! Had a great time! From what I understand, the bones there aren't actually fossilized- usually, minerals seep into the bones and turn them into rock. But here, the tar seeps in and basically preserves the bones, meaning that instead of bones turning to rock it's bones full of tar as if they died just a few days ago. Super interesting!
oh! The excavation site was closed when I went! We could just barely peek through the gate! Neat!
Ever see the movie "Volcano"? The volcano comes out of the La Brea tar pits. Anyway, in the late 90's, when air quality in L.A. was getting a lot of air play, a co-worker said: "The reason they have so much air pollution in Los Angeles is because they have a volcano."
I was thunderstruck. First, my mouth dropped open, then I just walked away (he was serious, not joking).
I absolutely believe that! I grew up in Orange County and met my wife online. So I moved to the state she grew up in to be closer to her. (It was in the Midwest) While at work one day, I heard someone say in the break room "I like California because there's no flies or mosquitoes, because they can't get over the mountains" I literally couldn't believe what I had just heard!
Needless to say, I finally talked my wifeninto moving back home to California with me.
This La Brea Museum was fascinating! I added to my bucket list for whenever I get to visit CA
So glad you and Jenn are having a good time. The La Brea tar pits museum was very interesting. Have a wonderful day ❣️
Jenn made it so fun
Love your new hat pin!! Perfect placement!!! "And for our Jewish friends, the Mazelsloth. Good one Carpetbagger!!! Attaboy!!!!" is
I live close by. Its a great place to visit. Especially in the park, you will see fences around where tars is coming up through the grass and soil. When I studied architectural history, buildings along Wilshire Boulevard, nearby the Tarpits, used to have tar that would seep into basements and lower floors. Eventually, it seems newer, modern designs this is no longer a problem, but interesting history. Thank you for sharing.
Another great video Jacob can't wait for the next one 🕐
Oh Jacob, I am so pleased you went here! We used to take school failed trips every year. What memories I have not been here in 20 or so years!
Our school trips were failures too! 😅
I love la brea tar pits, one of my favorite local museums to visit of all time ^^
Thank you Jacob and Jenn very interesting and educational video I have always been fascinated with the tar pits
Thank you for taking me along with you and Jenn Very Interesting Displays I like when there's more information available about the exhibit your seeing. The new Pin for your hat is a perfect fit for the spot! I loved the squirrel at the end ! Safe Travels
Love your travels with Jenn her laugh is so contagious, your such an adorable couple, loved the Time Travel Mart, the Labra Tar pits have always fascinated me thanks for the great vlog, be safe Jacob and Jenn🥰🐾🤗love Jenn’s glasses so cat like, a must have🐈⬛🐾The saber tooth cat is so cool, I want one lol
Hi Jacob and Jenn LOVE you both great vlog loving the back to the past fast foward kind of store.... It may come in handy in the past present.....!!!!!!! WHAT. Anyway... Great times enjoying all your fun and amazing attractions this is a really great trip..... Enjoy stay safe.... Your Friend Fan and Follower..... M XXXX
So good to see the Time Travel Mart! The parent organization, 826 National, has a bunch of themed stores across the country to support their local tutoring centers. The one in Michigan is a robot store, the one in DC has a magic shop... and the Brooklyn one is a superhero supply store. I think the Time Travel Mart is probably the most themed one, but all the locations do great work with kids. I don't think I'd be who I am today without their help!
Thank you, Jacob! I’ve been looking forward to your Tar Pit episode and it came on today. I really enjoy it very much! Love to seeJenny Penny go with you!
What a cool spot the tar pits is! Thanks for sharing.
Great trip😂😂😂that time travel mart is awesome! Love the tar pit travels too.
Yes!!! You help me get through the workday! Thanks Jacob!
Love that you're in my little home area! I haven't even seen some of these palces, so thank you for giving me new places to explore in my area!
Thanks for going to the tar pits! I'm living vicariously through your adventures!
Great video! Glad you went there as I probably won't so it was fun to see. Jacob! You're droppin the ball here, what happened to Rosebub when you shook the snow globe🤔 Also love when Jen is along for the trip. She's so sweet & funny. Be safe on your journey.
I had no idea it was still active! awesome!
Good morning Jacob, this is gr8t! Always wanted to go to the tar pits. Can't wait to see this vid. Ty for all the content u give us. ❤️
While you're in SoCal San Bernardino and Riverside both have nice museums. SB County Museum is pretty cool and Riverside has museums around the Mission Inn which in itself is a neat place to explore.
Great job Jacob. Really enjoy your content.
Hey Jacob, recently subscribed to your channel and i'm loving your content especially your Route 66 series. Have you visited the California Science center? Pretty cool place, the space shuttle Endeavour has its own pavilion there.
You know, I lived in Southern California until 2007 and I have never been to the LaBrea Tar Pits! Thanks for the video guys!
I haven’t been to the tarpits in a few years and it looks like they added new things! I gotta go now!👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
I’m an Alumnus of 826 Valencia, the original San Francisco location of the same organization that runs Time Travel Mart. 826 Valencia has a pirate themed store. In that same neighborhood is a really cool store with taxidermy and other nature related specialties like orchids and mushrooms
Big field trip for us in elementary school- In my 60's now. Consider looking up Webb School Museum in my part of town. Have FUN
The old man who came up to you when you were at the ground sloth is the same old man who talked for ages to my husband when we visited there! Another thing we noticed was that there were hummingbirds right at the edge of the lake, I don't know what attracted them but they kept hovering around there.
I love your channel
You two are awesome and funny at times
Thank you for describing things it is very helpful
Thank you for what you do
Thanks for taking us to La Brea Tar Pits. I haven't been there since I was a young adult. I believe I took my son there when he was small. Don't know why I never went back. But thanks for bringing back memories. Glad you and Jen had such a good time
I remembering reading about the La Brea tar pits in a book back in the early 80s. Always wanted to see it in person, but so far haven't been there. Thanks for making this video, and that time machine place you also showed was really neat as well!
Hi I just recently subscribed to you love your videos and I’m glad your in California right now! I live out here in Southern California and if your still out here for a while I really recommend the movie museum across from the car museum in LA the movie museums has four levels and has real movie props and costumes and showcases so much history it’s really cool definitely recommend!!
Love those floating pens! I have a few from amusement parks that sold them in the 80s. It was a brilliant gift shop item for themed rides and railroad museums where you could have a ride vehicle traveling through a scene.
I might be the only one, but I kind of miss the hissing possum during your opening credits.
Me too! 😂
I do too! At least the possum makes an appearance on the suitcase 😸
And me
Since you’re in LA I feel like you should do a collab with the GIV just like Adam did
Great idea but I was wondering if GIV was back from Germany yet also.
@kelleyrahmah8860 yeah I just saw he is..
That Lucha mask belongs to Blue Demon, one of the greatest wrestlers next to El Santo! His movies are on Tubi & UA-cam.
So enjoyable with both of you exploring!🌻🌷
that time travel shop is so clever
Hi Jenny Penny and Jacob 👋
Thanks for the video…I always wanted to visit here.
Convenient yet strange . Right in town .🤗🤗❤✌🤗
WHILE YOU ARE IN THE AREA, I recommend stopping by Newport Beach (south of LA) and visiting BUNNYHENGE!
Great video. At 23:46. Where’s the rest of Zeds remains?“Where’s Zed? Zeds dead baby”. Pulp Fiction!
11:19 I'm more fascinated by the fact that someone decided to use a Volkswagen Beetle to haul something.
Tar pits make me so sad because of all the lives they've claimed and that display with the mammoths didn't help. Lol I do like the bubbling noise they make though.
Stay safe. Nuff said.
Great choice
Appreciate you sharing this fascinating location😻💕
The foam you see they put it on when they find the fossil and because the fossil is usually in the middle of nowhere they put foam around it and they usually attach it to a hood of a car with plenty of rope around it!
In the Simpsons episode Bart had an elephant and donated to a local animal shelter and the family visited him but homer gets trapped in the tarpits
Enjoyed replay thanks 😊
Have a great time enjoying this.
31:35 this is one of my phobias raining fish, rather have it rain tacos than fish!
Happy trails, my friend
I’m pooped out after this vlog. Interesting California history
I haven't been to the Tar Pits since I was 11, I'm hoping to take my kids in April..
Seeing that little P-22 puppet made me sad though
Love your videos so much! So happy to see you and Jen doing very well. I hope you like the rock that I gave you at Knott's. I hope you rehid or kept it
Always enjoy your videos.
Wondering if you could stop by and see Sid and Marty Krofft office? They have a bunch of show memorabilia there. Not sure what’s the address, but I think it’s in studio city or LA?
Elephant/ mammoths/ mastodon/
Possum/ camel 🐪
Monkeys dogs cats sheep cows
Also universal studios is fun too !!
Another awesome day to watch a Carpetbagger video to make my day bright. 😊😊
La Brea Tar Pits were interesting. Enjoyed this video.
Awesome museum!!!
You guys work real good together on this videos
I really enjoy them
Thank You 😃
Brian from Northeast Ohio

"Encino man" filmed it's Museum scene there but changed the look of the main entrance.
If you get to Long Beach I hope you can check out the Queen Mary .
I like the new pin very cool! I want one lol
This video is fascinating!
Love this place. You didn't show the horses that were found in the pits.
Awh noooo what a shame the animatronics didn’t work at the museum 😢 I love thoes types of moving exhibits
Love the pits😂
That tall bear is a short faced bear
that was an interesting spot to vlog, did you buy a new tshirt to replace your old one ?
I loved the flesh pronghorn.
flashbacks of the my girl movie with the tar pits lol
I hope you find another pin like that for your hat that went missing.
The tar pit was used in the 1997 film volcano ❤
