We tried to give them another go with a positive video. However like we said at the end it can be frustrating. We wont be doing anymore as you guys have stated us to avoid even the positive titled videos from them
I lost it with those two goofs when they mocked our patriotism! If it bothers them that much, they can stay away! It won't bother us one bit.
I unsubscribed from them a long time ago, but absolutely Love y'all ❤😊
Something is wrong with these two. They seem pretty damn fake. We have the American version of them two here in America too.
@TheBeesleys99 hey James & Millie I'm from Arizona & when it comes to trying to give anymore of those old Joel & Lia videos a chance would be a waste of your time & probably no doubt upset you even more cus their sarcasm & overreacting & loudness & willful ignorance really starts to become grating on the nerves & comes off as intentionally rude & disrespectful depending on the subject....I stopped watching them long before they changed the content of their channel & finally unsubscribed from their channel after watching their "cooking" videos....I'm glad I found y'all & Lost In The Pond & The H Family channels & the mutual respect & fascination of each other after experiencing Joel & Lia cus in my opinion those two are a bad representation of all British peoples experiences & opinions of us & views of our cultures....it's nice to know it's not just us Americans being too sensitive or "triggered" as those two used to love to say or not understanding British humor or satire....I definitely applaud & appreciate your effort in being unbiased & willingness & respectfulness to give everything a fair shot at least once or twice
Thank you!!!
Those two seem so pompous and snooty. They definitely don't come across as a channel I'd enjoy. But, I guess not everyone can be as brilliantly sweet, funny, and positive as the two of you.
They think they're so posh and so upper class than the rest.
These are also some of the really old videos and it's not showing enough of them to really understand their comedy. I watched almost all of their stuff and they are great and they are absolutely adore America and have come here a ton of times to record.
@@mermaid1717I watched most of their videos and as time went on, the more self-absorbed they became. There are reasons why the channel folded, clearly.
@@mermaid1717Are they paying you or is one of their burner accounts? You seem to be commenting on everyone's comments who don't have something positive to say about those two clowns Joel and Lia.
@VictoriousDrucilla not everyone on social media needs to get paid to speak highly of something or someone. I'm commenting because people here are judging by a few VERY OLD videos. I have seen all their stuff, so I know if everyone putting their noses up at J&L watched more, they'd get them & their videos.
I don't know. Watching those two, makes me love James and Millie even more.
Get in line. Many of us feel this way.
I agree.
When I first found Joel and Lia, quite some time ago, I thought they were going to be just as sweet, positive and interresting as the both of you. Boy was I wrong! I won't ever make that mistake again.
Please stay true to yourselves.
I agree. They started out ok. Then they just got rude and mean. I believe Lia hates America. She said the Statue of Liberty was overrated.
Exactly! They are the exact opposite of the Beesleys.
@@ScreamingYellowMach Yep the Beesley are still the better British couple here. 😅
I agree with you. I stopped watching Joel and Lia long ago.
Bullshit. The Beesleys constantly talk over their videos and it seems like James can't wait until the end before shutting it off. And man can he talk. Joel and Lia both went to acting school, they're playing a character.
Joel and Lia's channel should be renamed from Those Two Brits to Those Two Twits.
I laughed again when Millie commented on how nice everyone was in New York City. You are going to be gobsmacked if you get to the rural Midwest, or really anywhere outside the big cities. ☺️☺️☺️☺️
I don't know. I'm from San Francisco and used to visit NY fairly regularly and in recent decades I too found New Yorkers remarkably pleasant. However, I grew up on the East Coast and am used to a certain "directness". And I also remember NY in the 1960s and 1970s when it was bottoming out. These days New Yawkas seem like pussycats compared to those days.
Minnesota Nice is a whole other level 😂 as a Minnesotan, I know that e everyone here isn't as nice as I am, but it's still a good example of how helpful & friendly we are usually. 😉
I agree. The South and Midwest are known for hospitality. I'm not saying it's true for all people in any area, but in general, the West Coast and the northeast are not known really areas most of us think of as "friendly"
@@BTinSFI've lived in New York all my life, there's definitely an underlying commonality of New Yorkers coming off as but are actually really good people.
The big mistake I see Europeans making when they come to the US is most of them never leave the big cities. Imagine the impression people would get of Europe if they only visited London, Paris, and Berlin, but you must subtract any site over 250 years old. The second biggest mistake is only dining at national chain restaurants, as opposed to the smaller local places.
How do you propose visitors from another country travel outside of the big cities where there's almost zero public transport and everything is so spread out?
@@jdanon203 the same way they do in the more remote parts of Europe and Asia…
Learn to drive?
Do like Americans do when traveling around the US by air travel, rent a car. @@jdanon203
@@jdanon203uh cars
Millie gets it... The facial expressions told me we were on the same sheet of music lol The pretentious pair are oblivious. I enjoyed this video, however. Thanks for being great folks!
I've seen several videos from Joel and Lisa. I always get the impression of a snide, condescending couple who make a good living out of mocking my country.
I can't stand Joel & Lía, that's why I unsubscribed them, AND I'm not American.
Are they a couple? Because he’s flaming.
@@TomEnlefthe is gay and he's dating a professional rugby player. She just got married this summer.
I've watched pretty much all of their videos and their sarcasm is part of their thing. They are really funny and they actually really respect America a lot and have been here a ton of times and loved it here. Don't watch any of their old stuff watch their new stuff and listen to what they're saying. Yes they come off kind of smoothie but again that's part of their thing. Lia is awesome & is truly down to earth. Joel in real life really does have self-esteem issues & on his personal videos you can see his snottiness, but still they absolutely LOVE America & are super funny to watch. Their nightly live videos when in America are some of the best.
@@mermaid1717I’m glad someone else has seen their stuff. They are hilarious! The snark is absolutely part of their shtick.
Joes is a bit particular, but he’s my favorite. I love his self deprecation.
They love the US, his parents own a home in FL, and they have spent so much time here.
Most Americans have self control and are good cooks with millions gigantic grocery stores all over. We mainly cook.
What I don't understand is why they want to come back here. They should just stay in Britain. Everyone would be happier. We would love for yall to come for a visit. But we don't need them.
I’ve seen a few of those Joel and Lia videos that makes me wonder how they really feel about us. It always seems they are taking piss on us underneath all the praise. I once saw a video they made entitled the 10 things they hate about the US and its practically the same list as the 10 things they love about us, 🤨🤣
They feel like they're so much higher than everyone else is that's there problem.
When it comes to food, more is always better. Even if I cannot finish my meal, I take it come for the next day or the day after.
I always ask for a doggy bag
I love having doggy bag for tomorrow's lunch. Free refills are convenient but most people don't actually go for second drink, unless an ice water
Most people don’t go for a second drink? Everyone I know does! 😂
If I’m going out for lunch it’s normally 1 but if I go out for dinner it’s typically 3 sometimes more. I don’t drink soda tho
I only know of kids going for seconds on soda
I've watched this couple Lia and Joel a few times and everytime I do I have the impulse to slam my door in their face if they ever crossed my path
Did Lia really say that English houses can't be so big and open because it's cold in the UK? That makes no sense as its colder here in the US and our houses our bigger, thus wouldn't it be harder/more expensive here?
They probably forgot that places like Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Michigan exist lol.
Lia is stupid, just sayin
I used to watch them but haven't for probably a year now because of their condescending attitudes. They always act like they are better than anyone else, in my opinion. I will never forget when they tried different American foods and Lia said it tasted like throw up and then they went on and on about it. Okay, not everyone likes all foods (There are lots of American foods I don't like, too; and I am American.) But they just were blasting everything. I would just say, "It's not my taste, so I don't think I would eat it anymore" or something like that. They are just too full of themselves for me. Only my opinion, which stands for nothing; but I don't ever watch them anymore.
I get why you guys researched them.They were an early example in the comparison channels.Luckily the cream has risen to the top with channels like yours,Lost in the pond,and the H,s There are a few more but the Brits have a classier group of channels now.
Yea, J&L sorta have declined, but then again I think it's mostly to do with both of their careers going separate ways.
Lilt: Something that's lilting is musical or rhythmic. A lilting voice has a happy, sweet-sounding cadence. Use the adjective lilting when you talk about something that swings musically along. Your favorite teacher's lilting voice might keep all of her students focused on her class, for example.
They (the other couple) seems like real snots
My problem with them is that they’re not interested in learning anything.
I'd love to see you and Lost in the Pond react to this and the other video together and tell a better side of each country
I have to say, I've listened to more than a few of Joel and Lia's videos in the past and, at first, I found them as interesting as most observational channels. But, over time, it began to bug me that they spent most of their time on things like shopping, eating at chain restaurants, and going to touristy places in the U.S. while making broad, general comments about the country and its people based on these superficial things. The "highlight" for me was their visit to Philadelphia, since I grew up just outside the city and know the area well. They *did* manage to get to a local diner, which was good, but then spent the rest of the time shopping for clothes in generic stores as if they couldn't shop for clothes in the U.K. at very similar places. (Maybe it was the price? I don't know.) They did manage to put together a video where they visited Independence Hall, where our Declaration of Independence was written and signed back in 1776. I was really eager to hear their impressions, but they seemed to be incredibly bored and couldn't wait to get back to shopping! I was dumbfounded. They finally did something of substance, but had absolutely nothing of interest to say about it. As I said, very superficial people with no curiosity.
They come across, to Americans, and I guess at least 2 Brits :) as those snotty Uber-hip Londoners I met there. NOTHING is as good, NO-ONE is as sophisticated. Well Joel and Lita here's a clue:
The World's LARGEST ECONOMY ain't going to miss you-at all.
What REALLY turned me off was their snotty (sorry no other word for it) run through a Wal-Mart at hunting season. Hunting, especially duck hunting is HUGE in the South so Wal-Mart had...hunting stuff. Putting on hunting gear and posing like hicks from BFE and THEN surprised the store banned them from filming. Also going to eat and not doing the basic stuff Americans and Canadians would do like put HOT SAUCE ON EGGS, and JAM/SYRUP with butter on pancakes and waffles. Then as Millie pointed out make sarcastic comments.Yeah says it all.
I DO give them a pass at the range, that rangemaster should've been FIRED on the spot. Putting newbies by THEMSELVES? Giving them .380/9mm instead of a .22 to learn on? WTF? UNLESS before filming started they wanted him to do that to highlight how careless those unsophisticated Americans are with their evil guns. After seeing this with your commentary-that would not surprise me.
As others have said, and I commented on their pages, Just visiting Austin, NYC, and Ashville is NOT visiting the US.
Joel and Lia think they’re being sarcastic, when it’s just a form of covert narcissism. Like you can tell when they’re not joking, but pretending like their just taking the piss out of ya.
Not only free soda/pop/etc. refills, but coffee as well.
Guaranteed weather? I guess they forgot about hurricanes, tornadoes, HOT weather in most states, COLD winters in some states.
As a southerner I thought that was hilarious. In Dec we have 80 degrees one day and it's below the freezing the next. Not to mention those odd times known as spring and fall when we wake up and need a jacket, by lunch it's nice and comfy outside, by 4 or 5 it's sweltering hot and by 10 pm you want a coat. Our rule is if you don't like the weather, wait 5 minutes it will change 😊
Northern Minnesota weather is in it's own category! I live in Northeastern Minnesota on the Iron Range - only about 20 miles from the state record holder -60°F ---- historically, it gets quite chilly up here in winter for months at a time. It's been a bit more unpredictable in recent years though. Duluth is about 40 square miles as a whole & the elevation changes from down by Lake Superior at the shoreline & up the hill where there can easily be a 50 degree difference between the top of the hill & the bottom - & it can change drastically when the wind changes direction since the water in Lake Superior is so cold in summer & warmer than the air in winter.
The US has had noticeable weather abnormalities in recent years - California is in the path of a Hurricane & hurricanes don't generally happen on that side of the country. Hurricane season has been quite harsh on the East Coast recently too. Tornado season is worse too. Where I am, we have been having warmer temperatures more often & we've been in a drought for several years now.
@@selfcarewithstephanie3519One hundred percent true! I was just saying today that you never know if you're going to need to wear sweaters and boots on Christmas day or shorts and flip flops. It's not uncommon to experience all four seasons in a 24 hour period.
I did notice when I was in London, how many people would tolerate you talking to them because they know you're an American, but you can tell how uncomfortable they are. I've decided next time I visit, I plan to stick more to the Midlands and Northern areas because half the fun of traveling is to meet people and talk to them.
Joel and Lia reminds of those two people that you can only hang out with maybe once every three months and that’s still to much. Every time your wife brings their name up you come up with any excuse to get out of it.
My God you are right. That guy is so sarcastic
Millie, I love that you spotted the sarcasm right away! Us Americans don't like fake and that's Exactly what those two are. They could be in danger if their other video goes viral in the US. Y'all how ever are very loved over here! If a Southerner ever says Bless Your Heart it's the tone that matters because we are Very big on manners down here! It can mean you poor thing, i feel sorry for you or your an idiot!
In danger? A bit dramatic aren’t we? 😂 Americans might find them annoying but a rude comment isn’t going to put anyone in danger. 😂 It’s nothing worse than our own politicians say about the country.
I almost didn’t watch this video because I find Joel and Lia so annoying. Of course, everything they say comes with a negative, which makes it so refreshing to listen to you. I’m glad I did watch it because you two are so delightful! 💕
"I have American friends". . . I'll take "things that aren't true for $500, Bob.
Good luck with your baby! What they say is true - "They grow up so fast." My three daughters are now 29, 30, and 31. I often think about way back when we first adopted them. Enjoy yours, because he or she will be an adult before you know it . . .
I am giving this a thumbs-up because I love the Beasley's but those two people in that video as usual should have called it the seven things I'd love to hate about America.
I am beginning to think the only reason they come to America is to find more things to hate and that is very sad
I agree with you.
I'm from Tennessee, and I have never heard my accent described as a lilt. A twang, drawl or something of that nature. Lilt? I don't think so! 😂
The video where you reviewed these people going on about what they don't like about America... they lost me.
Again you two are lovely.
You two seem so warm, fun friendly and genuine. And you seemed pretty appalled when he said people who think or say bad things don't deserve to live or should be locked up...
I love you guys for being horrified by his comment.
Good luck with the baby. I'm not sure how hot and humid it is where you are, but I hope it isn't too bad... being pregnant in hot and humid weather is pretty miserable... Especially as delivery approaches... but autumn/ fall is on the way.
I would say to the couple in the video, Hey, America doesn't make you fat. You have to own it. If you ate more than you should it was your own doing. Otherwise take it home for a later meal or don't eat after you are full.
Yes they don't help themselves with the end of each point. I like when they address all American with their announcement that they awarded some distinction to the US. Well all of the country breathed a sigh of relief that they declared it acceptable.
They are not a couple. Joel is gay & dating a professional rugby player. Lia just got married this summer. These are some of their super old videos and are the worst to try & judge them off of. Joel & Lia absolutely love America & the more you watch their videos, you'll get their personality & would actually laugh with them.
I used to follow them but had to stop. They can be so condescending and just unkind. They’ve talked about Americans for years in videos and still don’t understand us. You two are so genuine and kind. I’m so happy for you and your sweet family and wish you so much happiness!
One of the reasons our cups are bigger is because we actually use ice.
I use two watch Joel and Lea but there snide comments get tiresome. Just rude people making money off of making fun of people. Thank goodness for Millie and James.
8:51 Oh my goodness you two are just too cute together! You always warm my heart. By far my favorite YT couple ❤❤❤
And, actually, he is right about why Americans are louder. We do open our mouths wider when we speak than most Brits. When I was in college, I was in a play and we all had to do British accents, the trainer told us to focus on speaking "with our teeth". Brits tend to keep their mouths tighter when speaking, whereas Americans don't.
Every time they talk they put there foot in there mouths lol
I never ever had talk across the table like that or ever seen it happen
Lilt - the attractive quality of speech or music that rises and falls in a pleasing pattern.
Joel and Lia made me judge Londoners like someone from LA, Portland, or Seattle. Living in a bubble and loving to judge others.
(Of course I’m not saying everyone from those cities)
I think Americans are tired of seeing non Americans talking about how we don't do things like their country does. We are not Germany. We are not the U.K. We are not France. We are America. Stop comparing us to the rest of the world. We wouldn't expect Spain or say Norway to be like us. We have our own culture. Our own ways. It makes America who we are. It is frustrating how because we talk to total strangers at a table next us it upsets Europeans. We treat everyone like family. We are curious about people from other countries and are honestly wanting to chat about culture. And get to know people. It's just how we are. We genuinely are freindly people. And would welcome you as family. It is just who we are as a whole. Please stop judging us. They say something nice then contradict it in the next scentence. And put a negative on what they originally said they liked. We have bigger mouth cavities? So we talk louder? Really? Ugh. I give up. Better be quiet now. Before my bigger mouth gets me in trouble.😂
New York City is regarded by Americans as probably the least friendly city in the country. People in the south and the midwest are waaaayyy more helpful and pleasant than folks in NYC. It’s not that New Yorkers aren’t nice people - they’re just less outwardly friendly to strangers.
Warner Bros.
Warner Bros. owns the Harry Potter movie rights. JK Rowling owns the Intellectual Property rights to books and movies. The Scholastic Company owns the USA rights to publishing.May 1, 2023
Warner Bros. Is an American owned company. So it is an American movie filmed in England.
What is this girl talking about its just to cold for open plan LOL... we still use open floor plans in Montana where it is -30 in the winter. A large portion of the US gets far colder than the UK ever does. Doesn't matter as long as the exterior walls and roof are well insulated. Not to mention our energy is much cheaper here.
I completely agree with the sarcasm, absolute turn off. I just find it disrespectful to us Americans.
Joel's parents live in Florida if they continue to bitch about "America" (aka USA 🇺🇲) I don't think they'll be invited back 😂😂
They came here and went to a gun range and Lia almost shot Joel because they seem to think it's a game. Brandon Herrera reacted to it, having no idea who they are, and they got an honorary Darwin award...LOL
Those two have a bitter undertone and seem very phony. I tried more than once and I'm done. With all the choices out there, I won't waste my time or punish myself. Love you guys but I have to give them a thumbs down.
Lilt means the rising and falling of the voice when speaking. A pleasant gentle accent.
lol, even when they guys are trying to be nice, they just come off as condescending. 7 mins in and I'm checking out.
I stopped watching them a while ago because they seemed to be complaining more and just chatting with each other about stuff they don’t know. And they just read from other sites and comment about it.
I live in a midwestern state in the US. The weather is not consistent here. There is a saying in the Midwest: If you don’t like the weather now wait a day. We can have wild fluctuations in temperature in a single day.
That's what's said in t5he New England states, and I know this since I'm originally from MA.
It's a New England accent not a Boston accent. I live in Maine and some people talk the same here as they do in Massachusetts and I'm 2 states away. It's a regional thing like southern accent, New England accent.
I’m just not a fan of those two. They’re a little on the obnoxious side & you can hear the condescension in their voice. N.O.P.E. Not for me. Kudos to James & Millie tho. You guys are total rock stars!! ✌🏼
in the Valley of the Sun, an all-day pass gets you transport on any regular bus line, and the train, which is faster than the bus, but limited in range. a one-day pass costs $4, 7-day is $20, and 31-day is $64
Its true. When I got out I order based on what will taste best for lunch next day. I know portions will be huge.
Extreme makeover is not a representation of American homes. Each of those homes on that show are unique. They are only for the show.
Most of the people lose the houses after a couple of tax cycles
These two seem kinda condescending to me. They are too posh, it seems like they think of us ( Americans) like puppies or something. Like oh we are so cute silly things
Americans love British shows. Definitely Harry Potter ❤ but also Doctor Who, Reign, Downton Abbey, and all the different Queen movies. I also loved the room renovation show, I think it was called changing rooms. My dad loved yhe Benny Hill show and keeping up appearances 😂 and Monty Python. The BBC is very popular here in the states.❤ I hope Joel &Lia don't quit their day jobs 😉 always talking smak about Americans isn't gonna get them any love from us. Hope offended people don't find them in NY. lol
Much love to Millie and James❤and baby
Dr. Who has taken a tumble for the past four years. 😅
But other than that, you're spot on. 👍
Ditto ! I like hearing about life across the pond but we aren't in competition. I could see having you guys as neighbors. The other couple - not so much. Btw, congratulations on the baby !
Americans love British shows? No we don't!
It’s so funny to me the delight people from other countries feel toward the free refills. I’m American and I rarely finish even half of my drink when I’m at a restaurant, so I’ve never utilized a free refill. I must be a little odd in that sense and now I’m taking notice of how much others drink while we’re eating out.
I like watching your videos because both of you are very nice.
You seem so sincere and genuine in what you say.
You both would make wonderful parents.
I would love for him to move to NYC. He would have one or two conversations with someone and his ass would be in a pine box 6 feet under. He would piss off a lot of people there in one day.
I would love to see a video of you two legends traveling around the US with Joel and Lia. I'd give it a day or two before they mysteriously go missing. I mean this in the most positive manner possible and I would more than happy to provide you both with an alibi, lol.
Why... They would be better off with Lawrence and Tara.
@runrafarunthebestintheworld
That would be the best collaboration ever!
Joel and Lia couldn't stand each other for a time there.
They had split up and formed their own channels.
I guess it didn't work out, so they came back together. 😂
@@briansmith48they have not posted together for a long time
They are horrible people. So I don't miss them
You guys are very polite & gracious.
Joel and Lia used to be good, but they've gotten a little too comfortable in making assumptions. Josh and Jase on the other hand, they are having the full American experience on Tiktok right now.
If you come to America and you feel homesick, just head on over to Portland Oregon and you'll feel right at home.
Lia talking about how loud we are is really ironic. One of the things I find annoying about them is how loud she is.
Also, imagine our relief that there are some things about us that aren’t quite as awful to them. (That is an example of sarcasm, not the ignorant, condescending drivel they spout)
Thank you for having honest reactions. I love that you'll say when you don't agree.
Love you guys. But I don't get this other couple. One of their favorite things about the USA is that we are friendly but after a while of talking to the next table, they get annoyed? So did they like the friendliness or not? 🤔
If you really what to know America the big cities are great but to know America go to the small towns then you will really know Americans the Heart of the country
Flight prices now are insane in the US. I travel for work and granted I'm usually booking flights 3-5 days before my trip, so it is more expensive, I pay $500-800 round trip. Just a year or 2 ago I was paying $300-500 round trip.
I fly often, but I book a month in advance, much cheaper 🙂
Where are you flying where it costs $500-800 dollars?
@@TickleMeElmo55 Pretty much everywhere I go. My flight to Grand Rapids Michigan this week was even more. closer to $900
@@TickleMeElmo55
"Where are you flying where it costs $500-800 dollars?"
He's booking the previous day. It's more expensive if you do that. If you book about a month out, it's more like $200 round trip. 🙂
Ugh I find these two that you’re reacting to very insincere and artificial even when they’re trying to make a positive video. So glad the both of you aren’t like them.
Exactly! I felt like they were basically saying "We actually like some things about you STUPID Americans..."
Spring in New York is comfortable as heck. Same as fall. Summer gets hot. Winter just sucks!
One thing I like about Brits and Americans, at least from my perspective, is we both appreciate a good insult.
You guys need to watch breaking bad, it’s the most awarded tv show in history. It is incredible
I tried to think of a way to explain “lilt” and couldn’t figure out how so I’ll give you the actual definition(it’s funny how it has nothing to do with a drink😉) Lilt - “a characteristic rising and falling of the voice when speaking”. Hope that helps. Also on the entertainment category I think British humor is funnier but I’m usually in the minority of people I say that to. It’s not my fault they don’t get it😜
In my opinion, the funniest TV show of all time was Ricky Gervais' The Office, and I generally like British humor more than most.
Portion sizes: Nobody ever said one person has to eat everything on the plate. Most places will happily give you an extra plate to share. Note: I picked up on "3 pounds a drink" because in Tucson McD's has "all you can drink" for $1.25.
Friendliness: I live the rest of the year (besides the part near Tucson) in San Francisco where we get a lot of tourists and I often see them pouring over their cell phones, and sometimes a tourist map and when I see that I often ask if they need help finding something. Sometimes they seem very shocked and I am wary of that because I understand when a stranger talks to them the first thought is probably I'm a panhandler.
Home sizes: Not everybody lives in a suburban McMansion and our city apartments and, yes, flats (in SF that usually means one floor of an older, often Victorian, home that's been divided) don't seem any bigger than those in Britain. It's city vs country. City homes are city homes.
TV/Movies: I can't imagine American TV/Movie production without British actors.
Cost of transit: A NY 7-day metro card is currently $33 which is only slightly cheaper than London.
Accent: Joel and Lia have what I think is a "posh" British accent and, as an American, I find that attractive but when you get into certain British accents like "Geordie" or Glaswegian I can hardly understand it and it seems much more extreme than anything in the US.
Weather: It is absurd to suggest that the US doesn't have more varied weather than the UK and some parts of it can be as unpleasant as anything in Britain. The Northwest is famous for rainy, dreary weather not unlike Britain. To my taste, the Southwest and Southeast are unbearable in summer (in fact, although I grew up there, I could no longer tolerate most of the eastern half of the country without air conditioning which we didn't have when I grew up).
I used to watch “Absolutely Fabulous” all the time. Guy Ritchie gangster movies are pretty good. And British punk/ska are on my top 3 music genres
And 'the young ones' .
'Bottom' is hilarious too.
@@DashRiprock513
The young ones, yep is classic I forgot that one👍
If ypu come to the States, and you only eat at the big, Nation Chain Restaurants, then you are missing out one real American cooking!
Go to the smaller, Local Restaurants. Or, get ypurself invited to a BBQ or Family Cookout!!!
There are also several Festivals and things ypu could attend, and thats a great place to get some genuinely amazing food.
If ypu ever have the chance, go to "Taste of Chicago" which takes place in the Summertime usually on or near 4th of July weekend.
This year (2023) it is taking place in early September, so if you have the chance, definitely go!
I promise, you ABSOLUTELY WILL love the food!!!!
The thing about the portion sizes is that you do not have to eat all the food at one sitting....we take leftovers home and have 1 or two more meals. The free refills... again it I s not required that you take a refill.
When it comes to British entertainment it's 007, Johnny English, the Beesleys , and the pegg/frost movies. I don't care for the couple you reacted to. Haha
I live on the West Coast of the US and a flight from The west coast to London is over $800 economy class. To me that’s not too bad considering the distance.
I wanted a flight from the West Coast to Texas and it to was around $800.
There’s a lot of factors that go onto a price. One of them is how far in advance have you booked your flight.
That's outrageous
7-Day Unlimited Ride
Regular price$34.00 USD subway and bus all of NYC.
No trains not even more than one bus a day here in oregon. If you dont have a car then youre stuck! Just shows how different our states are in the us :-)
@@pawsandxffects I live in a concrete jungle - Da Bronx. I rather be looking for squatchie in Oregon than getting blasted by reggeton music at 3:00am.
Actually, to speak with the American accent, there is a larger, wider-opened mouth created. We learned about it in choir in high school.
18:20 "California, you're pretty ok." Meanwhile, California currently has a hurricane heading their way lol
The train from Belen to Santa Fe costs $10 🤔about £7 (?). That's about 45-50 miles
I live in California and it might be pouring down rain tomorrow because of tropical storm/hurricane Hillary. Some parts of California experience all four seasons. They have snow the rain the heat the spring weather the autumn weather. Other parts of California you have 2 1/2 maybe three seasons. Other parts are cold and mild like San Francisco or you got comfortable all around like San Diego.
joel and lia have lost all credibility with me when they laughed and made fun of American Patriotism and how we have american flags everywhere. if they don't like it...they can stay in england.
Exactly!!!
When he said he wanted to move to New York NY first thought was they better delete the video about the things they Hate about USA or he's going to disappear! New Yorker's are MASSIVELY Patriotic after 9/11! They will see the wrong side of American hospitality!
They grew since then. They admire the American patriotism even though they don’t agree with it. They don’t care for English Patriotism either though so that’s likely the best we’re going to get. In person , Joel and Lia are quite nice. ( I have met them off camera before ) But ugh, their opinions on *most* things are often ill informed.
@@emanymton713 Judging they way they mock us, it seems they're quite jealous of us.
@@ScreamingYellowMach not entirely… if you watch them over their entire catalogue you can chart their growth and greater understanding of US everything… if I had the room in my house for guests I wouldn’t hesitate to offer it to them to visit. ( same goes for the Beesleys)
Wow. We have big mouths? These people are something else. lol
Those two are just as bad as the girl from Germany.
New England weather is the furthest thing from predictable
That’s true about how much more of our mouths we use over here in the states. I’ve always noticed how Britain’s literally have that tight lip.
Just an FYI, we're watching your tv and movies. Between specialty streaming services and VPNs, etc., I think UK productions are being consumed in the US, perhaps more than ever.
To back James up there, it's cheaper to fly from Bristol to Norwich than it is to go by train as well.
