    To live is Christ, to die is gain. I’ve never been nervous going into a surgery. Truly! And when asked about it, usually being mocked, saying ‘Oh I know you are and just won’t admit it’, I mention this verse. I really have no fear.

    Gosh, where to start. Well I watch a lot of different videos which causes certain videos to just pop up like yours did. So I watch it from beginning to end, sometimes smiling and wanting to say something. It gets to the end and I subscribe because you are genuine and down to earth. With that being said some of these questions hit home for me with my son. My son has a platform as "The Cajun Ninja". He has 194k followers on You Tube and 1.2 million followers on Facebook. He teaches Martial Arts, loves his family, and loves to cook. I remember about 10 years ago before all this took off he did a Chicken Sausage Gumbo video and just put it out there not thinking much about it. As of this day I think it has over 30 million views world wide. So he started his own channel and it just grew over time. He has a Cookbook which has sold over 50k copies, his own "PIYAHHHHH" Seasoning, Fish Fry, and Seafood Boil Seasoning in many grocery stores. The one thing he has always done is stay true to who he is. You will get many positive comments but there will sometimes be a negative one or two. So you stay who you are and true followers will always be there. I simply love your channel. Great Video! "The Cajun Ninja's Dad"

      And also, congratulations to your son on his immensely successful UA-cam channel. That's great. We wish him the best.

    Thank you for all your hard work you two put in giving us the enjoyment of coming along on your adventures. I usually watch y’all as I am cross stitching and must say my mouth is watering on the restaurant reviews. Living the life right outside NMB so those videos have giving me a lot of new food choice, been to Platts numerous times for fresh seafood but now will try their prepared meals👍, probably next week as I am going to be a golf widow🤣. Twofer no cooking and good seafood👏👏👏.
    I have a few suggestions for the next time you are in Myrtle, THE BEST BURGER is at Bruiser’s Burger in Surfside, but do not go unless you are hungry as they are 1/2 lb burgers and fresh cut fries, will knock your tastebuds out👍. Small place, so we go off hours 2-3, closed on Sundays and Mondays. Cooper’s in Little River, little loud during peak hours but excellent food, the deep fried mac n cheese will blow you away and the burgers are excellent too. Gio’s, dinner only, Italian and mouth watering and Flamingo Grill, dinner only, their prime rib is spectacular. These two are in MB on business (or old 17 as I call it) 17. Ok now I have made myself hangry🤔😳🤣
    Hope y’all have a great summer and looking forward to many more adventures with you two.😍

    Sorry I’m commenting so late, but JUST NOW watching this Q&A . JUST wanted to tell you both how proud I am, that y’all don’t refrain from answering a question about GODS word . Having a UA-cam channel gives you an opportunity to spread the gospel, and DOING JUST THAT is a blessing to see !!! I pray this channel reaches at LEAST 1 that really needs to hear about our Lord Jesus Christ, and turns their lives to him, that they also will be born again. Keep on keeping on with this great channel, and we look forward to seeing you again on the NORTH side of the Grand Strand, in the near future.

    • @NCMemoryMakers
      @NCMemoryMakers  Місяць тому

    • @NCMemoryMakers
      @NCMemoryMakers  Місяць тому +1

      Tried to research this by looking at our analytics. Unfortunately, it does not give us the breakdown by states in the US. I know we have lots of subscribers from NC, but we have also had numerous ones from Alabama to come up to us when we're in Gatlinburg. We also know of several in Louisiana, California, Florida, and most states, in fact. We just don't know the exact breakdown.
      As for countries, we do have a list of those in the analytics section...The US has the most, by far. But we also have Canada, UK, Brazil, Australia, Mexico, India, Germany, Philippines, Austria, and Ireland.
      We had a viewer in a livestream once, tell us they were watching from Greenland. That country is not listed, for some reason.

    Derrick, Brenda and I have watched every video but only once so the other person has topped us for sure.
    I'm not a youtube creator so talk this with a grain of salt.
    But as I understand UA-cam likes one video per day.
    So my advice is when you go on weekend trips. Say you film 5 videos. It might be better to release one per day. It's my understanding it helps the algorithm..Not trying to tell you how to run the channel. Just a suggestion. And anyway however you release the videos. Brenda and I will always watch them.

    • @NCMemoryMakers
      @NCMemoryMakers  Місяць тому +1

      I'm honestly not sure how the algorithm works, to be honest. I did this tonight, because I promised the owner I would try to get this video up as soon as possible. The special he was running was for Father's Day weekend, and I was hoping that perhaps somebody would see this video and decide to go there tomorrow afternoon while it was still going on. That's why I went ahead and pushed to get this one up.
      I usually try to get restaurant reviews up quickly, because most of them are done with the phone, and it's a pretty quick and easy process. As opposed to our nature or outside videos, which are done with a better camera.
      We do appreciate you watching all of our videos.
