Jay, you look fabulous in those glasses! I am very happy to enjoy a long-form video from you today, too. Thank you! May the autumn be long and wonderful in Paris!
I like the glasses, they suit you. I could see you with a polo neck sweater and scarf with a book in hand. And you would nail that look! And yay for more vlogs! There’s a Jay shaped hole in the You Tube universe!!
can relate turned 70 in august - up until six months prior never had an ache, pain took not one single pill. had a few ridiculous issues this year dealing with typical aches and stuff. learning to just roll with it, but for me a a fitness instructor i took pride in arriving to 70 with nothing wrong, well almost.
I had glasses since age 8, then contacts since high school. So at age 50 I needed cataract surgery because I grew up in SoCal and Hawaii and didn’t use enough sun protection. Used the opportunity correct my astigmatism with iLasik. Best thing in the world as it gave me crystal clear vision for the first time in my life. No more contacts and only a pair of work glasses for computer use. Best. Thing. EVAR.
Thanks for the shout out. I’m very happy to be a patron. I like how you look in the glasses but I haven’t adjusted to the “streamlined” look yet. I guess I always like beards.
Wow! Great vlog! You look great without the beard. Also the glasses are nice. I understand about the cavities. I've yet to have one, knock wood, and it is a point of pride and identity. Cooper will love you no matter what because he can sense how much you love him.
The U.S. Ambassador's residence in Paris is absolutely stunning. My friends and I were invited to celebrate July 4th many years ago when I was lived there. I'll never forget that day.
Love the clean shaven face and the glasses! Today is a lazy day as it’s cloudy and raining. Agree with the short summer. That said, I’m not a fan of hot weather and am enjoying the gorgeous weather. I don’t even mind the rain.
I tried to manage with cheap reading glasses for over a year then when I got some proper prescription specs it was a game changer. Your glasses look great, they really suit you. 👍👍
Just returned from Paris. Used PIMP and couldn’t find some of the spots (particularly the reasonably priced dumpling pace from the Yam t’cha people). Did end up having lunch there…was an amazing tasting menu with 9 courses and paired with teas. Was surprised at the $480 bill, but renamed it “an experience “ and was glad we did it.
oh wow! Bummer to hear the boutique no longer serves dumplings. I don't recommend the Michelin in my guide becuase, well, the bill. But I bet it was amazing, and hopefully a once in a lifetime experience for you!
Aw Jay, I feel ya on the ‘I have perfect 20/20 vision’ pride, right up until my early 30s … then all of a sudden I needed glasses! I still have very good vision, in fact I rarely actually put on my glasses, but it’s no longer perfect. Just part of life that if I want to do something like read the print on the back of a medicine package or the ingredient list on a box, I have to pull out the ol’ glasses. They do look good on you!
I like the new look Jay and those glasses suit you. I'm not much of an Instagram person. I have an account but only look at it once in awhile. Now you have given me a reason to start checking it out more often. I hope you have a wonderful Fall season. The trees are just starting to change colours here in Southwestern, Ontario, Canada. The temps are starting to head down into the 70s which is so comfortable. Cooper is looking as sweet as ever.
Nice glasses. I had been the same my whole life untill about 37 when I started needing regular reading glasses and then 40 it just went REALLY fast. The one thing though was despite having had 'perfect' sight my whole life prior I discovered when getting my eyes checked for glasses that I have a completely different prescription in my left vs. right eye WHICH kind of makes a hell of a lot of sense of the fact that I NEVER could figure out where a ball was in space and have HATED all ball related sports my entire life. Anyhow, fun to see some vloggy content over here again.
lol, did you know wearing glasses make you look smart. So wear your glasses every time you want to look smart. lol I have been wearing my glasses for over 50 years and yes I've had people ask me a lot of questions that I knew I didn't have the answer too but its funny. Your frame looks really nice on you too. So with that being said enjoy the new you. Thanks for sharing. Merci
Glasses look good, they frame your eyes and face nicely! Also i haven't commented on one of our vids in a while, but good seeing you're doing well! I met you when you came to LA in 2018 and again soon after when i visited Paris in July that same year. If you ever come back to LA, i'd be happy to host! I'm near downtown. Take care!
Nice to see you back on UA-cam, you’ve been missed. I do follow you on Instagram but to be honest, I really don’t use instagram much as I don’t really understand how to find all the reels/stories etc and when I try to find anything on there it seem to disappear 🤔😩 very frustrating!
As someone who used to play hockey and now uses a wheelchair most of the time: Do not make something you have no control over your identity! How you go through life, the good and the bad, is who you are.
La Mutinerie has entered redressement judiciaire after the olympics drop it's rough out there. And it's a shame because I ended up being very pleased with how the olympics went so I think most fears that people escaped for ended up not being too bad.
I like seeing your entire face. I feel as if men sometimes hide behind their facial hair. It will be nice to have you back on a more regular basis as you were always designated stop any time I went to UA-cam. Also I envy you the early autumn. In Northern CA we are still coping with temperatures just below 100 & I am thankful that we seem to have dropped out of the triple digits. It has been an extremely hot summer here. I'm sure Cooper prefers moderate weather as very hot weather is hard on Boston Terriers as they are brachycephalic. My little fur baby (a Miniature Schnauzer) has spent most of her time indoors this summer because of the extreme heat.
Never had a cavity?!?!? Superhuman!! Glasses suit you well though for sure. As a guy who clearly takes pride in how he looks I think that once you adjust, you’ll have a lot of fun with glasses
How is no one stealing your camera in PARIS? Is someone guarding it for you? I had a camera stolen out of my backpack WHILE I WAS WEARING IT on the metro.
Nice video. but some things dont change like the non stop rain 😊 By the way anyone know where the link is to book an hour with Jay, couldn't find it. Thanks!
4:08 It’s like Stanley Tucci’s long lost French sibling. I dig it
😆
Right!? I had to do a double take dude.
As a man who has worn glasses for 55 years, and now doesn’t post cataracts surgery, don’t fret over the glasses. They suit you.
🤓🙏

Jay you are amazing. Happy to hear your new ventures! We always enjoy watching you.
Thank you!
I agree with Cooper, you look great no matter what!
🥰🙏🐶
Good to see you again in long form, Jay. Just brings me back to the Paris I like because you keep it down to earth. Cheers much success 🇺🇸🇫🇷
You being an inspiration in a sort of way
🙏
Like the new look with the glasses! Change is good!

That's so good! It's cool to know how far we've come on this
Dogs always see through to our true soul.

Love new look! Great to see you here, again!!
Thank you!! 😊
oh Jay - I’m getting Stanley Tucci vibes - très chic! Love, love, love.
🥂 Now I just need to learn to make cocktails like him
I like the glasses! Aesthetically they look great! Oh love that shot with the bikes and Eiffel Tower
Merci!
Looking great, Jay! Great change for those dark, windy months ahead :)

He wasn't fazed in the slightest 😆
possible hot take: I think the "grandma glasses" looked better
Lindsay always has good addresses, the glasses look good on you. 🤓
Loved the character's Jay but as you say, time moves on for all of us. A moment in time still memorable to us if you search hard enough!
Wow! I I love the glasses on you!! You look fab.☺️
🤗

I did notice you didn’t post but I am glad your back

It's been a nice few days for sure 🙏
looking good Jay! great change!
Thanks 👍
Glad you're doing well in short form videos. I find myself just doom scrolling occasionaly and it's fun to see your short videos pop up.
Glad you're enjoying them!
Jean Luc Picard look is good and glasses are great
More men should go to that look earlier in life. If you do that look early you don’t age until you’re about 75.
I had cataract surgery it’s a very good surgery hope it worked for u
🙏
I tried to manage with cheap reading glasses for over a year then when I got some proper prescription specs it was a game changer. Your glasses look great, they really suit you. 👍👍
Nothing like realizing you need proper perscriptions and seeing clearly again!
The glasses look great on you!
Thanks!
You look much better clean shaven and the glasses are great .
Thanks !
Awwww the reel was too cute 😭
It was fun to make
Ooh I love the glasses!
The new look suits you. And the glasses look fabulous. Another opportunity to introduce style.
I love your new bins (Cockney Rhyming Slang). You look very dapper.
I’ve never seen hubby without a beard. Known him since 1981. It’d be a big change. 👍

I'm sure more than a few of us remember the many beards of the Vlog Intro Jays. 😆
Classic throwbacks
the glasses look great!

You look great with glasses Jay!
Looking good...makes you more studious and mature looking.

The glasses are 🔥, Jay. And for the record…real men wear glasses 😊
I love them =)
bring back the long form. More food stuff. love it

I really like them - glad I finally got a pair I like

I like the glasses 👓
I’m going to Paris in November from FL so I pray it’s going to be an extended fall as well. I’m not acclimated to winter weather 😅
No winter pllleeeeaaaase

How you go through life, the good and the bad, is who you are.
great advice!
You look so handsome with your new look, oh la la!
In terms of glasses...same here. I used to have excellent vision prior to daily computer use. I'm considering Lasik surgery
Have heard good things!
Jay, I'm going to be there on Wed for a few days before a river cruise to Normandy!
Like the glasses
I do miss the barbu look but the clean shaven look is not bad. It’s very Yuppie actually.
🤓
You stole Lindsey's glasses! 🤣
La Mutinerie has entered redressement judiciaire after the olympics drop it's rough out there. And it's a shame because I ended up being very pleased with how the olympics went so I think most fears that people escaped for ended up not being too bad.
I always like your Instagram Stories but I do miss the UA-cam vids.... Thinking a "what to do in Winter" would be a good topic.
Sleep 😆
The glasses are fire tho
Hey man, glasses suit you. Luckily you don't need them in the rain yet. ;)
ps the glasses look great!
Seeing is very useful. Says glasses wearer who hates buying glasses. Beards are useful. Says lazy adult man who hates shaving 🍷
😆

Please Please Please - let us know when you get the french passport. :) (and show it to us!)
Check my uploads, just a few back 😉
What camera did you use for the street shots?
Never had a cavity?!?!? Superhuman!! Glasses suit you well though for sure. As a guy who clearly takes pride in how he looks I think that once you adjust, you’ll have a lot of fun with glasses
Being a Red Head myself (though grey now) I will miss your red beard. Glasses....you picked well. Life is now much clearer around the house, right?!
The glass are great, looking great. The lack of a beard may take longer to get used to... 😉
The specs become you. A good look.
thank you!
How is no one stealing your camera in PARIS? Is someone guarding it for you? I had a camera stolen out of my backpack WHILE I WAS WEARING IT on the metro.
Just because you had a bad experience doesn’t mean everyone else will. The world doesn’t revolve around you. Namaste.
Aw sorry that happened to you! I'm always careful and aware, but I've definitely been lucky, too
@@nicolasandrade1185 lol
But hey at least the new look is cool right that's what everybody's worried about
Branching out to connect with the public. Awesome. Oh, and the new specs! Handsome.
Nice video. but some things dont change like the non stop rain 😊 By the way anyone know where the link is to book an hour with Jay, couldn't find it. Thanks!
Sorry about that, updated the description!
You look very distinguished in your glasses! Not so much with dog saliva on your face😂, but love the new look! 👍
Happy Coop happy life
@@JaySwanson Cooper kisses are worth it! 🤗
Guys how do i hit undo on the avatar customizer
(jk i support more people getting glasses, proper eye care is underrated. you look great!)
Stanley Tucci
oh la la
Non monsieur, I don't think that's the right look for you. Oh la la
perfect, but to hectic- please calm down. Bless you dude
👨🏻🦲🥸U look like the guy from BREAKING BAD😅😅
🤓
Wait a second is that😮, dude you pulled a Clark Kent on me 😅. Nice to see Cooper happier than ever. Awesome video as always.
