Has it changed your friendships or your relationships with family? (Are your family and friends fatter or thinner or mixed?)
Penn Jillette says that he was not prepared for how much happier he feels now that he has lost weight. But some people find the opposite, that weight loss does not make them as happy as they expected, in the end. What is your experience with this?
Podcast ....Podcast ....Podcast....we want Brian to do the Podcast :)
Yayyyy! See Brian the people demand a podcast ;)
Yes! I’d love to listen to your podcast as well!
Fine! I'll start working on one... :P
Brian podcast would be awesome!
simming agreed!!!!!
Agree!!
Absolutely so
Yes, I'm in...great voice and pleasant to listen as well.
The two of you are SO cool! You make the plant based lifestyle so much fun and "palatable" :-) You don't preach and you don't take yourselves too seriously. Great senses of humor. Thanks so much for your vlogs!
Thank you so much ❤️
@@KrocksInTheKitchen You are SO welcome and I hope that you will consider doing a podcast of your plant based journey.
Yes, and they don't do yoga !!!! 😃 Or do they?
@@debbielund9341 Thank you Debbie! Be Well.
The fact that you are humble makes you both relevant. You don't pretend to be perfect and are therefore very easy to watch. ♡love your humor and interactions with each other.
Agreed 100%
I love your "how we met" story. You seemed to be really in sync with other. Love that you have been together for the many years. Love your energy and great content. May God continue to bless your endeavors.
Thank you ❤️
I was totally expecting Jessica’s job to be accounting related. 😂
Can’t wait for the Peef video! 😄
myboosterseat Peef needs his own Instagram and UA-cam channel so we can enjoy his adventures
Yes wait for the peef,, video.
Hi KROCKS! I would love a video, since you both work and both do WFPB, on how you prep to take food to the office. I find a lot of other youtubers work from home and it’s hard for me to know what to pack for the day. We also are ‘forbidden’ from heating up certain foods like broccoli. It’s frustrating and I need a Krocktervention!
Hey, Brian!! How did you get Rob Thomas to make Jessica watch Star Wars!? And, Yes!! Do tell us about Peef!!!! 😜😂 #question
yes do tell!
Yesss...I wanna know🤔🤔🤔
I met my husband on AOL 22 years ago. I sent a one word message to him. The rest is history
Love that! ❤️
I also met my husband on AOL. He messaged me in late December of 2000 and then I lost my internet for a month. When I came back in February, I was surprised to discover that he was still around and interested. We met in person in May of 2001 after spending a few months emailing and talking on the phone, he moved in with me in June, and we were married on Halloween. This October, we'll have been married for 18 years! Congrats on your 22 years @SuZanna Anna! And congrats to Brian and Jessica for your long life together!
Ravyne Hawke AOL was great for just chatting and meeting people. Did they still have “love at AOL” when you guys met?
ha ha ha that is so cool...i met my husband on aol 19 yrs ago....it was the only platform online.....but dang, I couldn't stand him., I thought he was crazy and he thought i was prissy....lmao thinking about it.....met for coffee, he would only answer my questions with disney characters voices so i really never knew what his real voice was like, what a jerk i thought....couldn't wait to get out of that date....3 weeks later, he called me again, i didn't recognize his voice...agreed to one more chance and after our date he kissed me and that moment i knew i was going to marry him......and here goes 19 yrs and im crazy in love with him still.
You guys are entertaining! I think I like to watch you because you seem like real folks. It’s not staged. And....I would listen to your podcast!
Thank you Rhonda!
Down to earth and dignified...💟
As a 5+ year vegan I was so touched by your answer on veganism and the respect you have for the lifestyle. You are probably doing more for the animals than a lot of vegans by showing plant-based living in such a healthy positive light. Thank you so much for the work you are doing for humans and animals!!💜🌱
Aw... Back when we could get messages from people on MySpace and actually make friends.... Cute story! Thanks for sharing some stuff about you with us!
For some weird reason, I'm really interested to know how's Brian's health after visiting the doctor (Hopefully everything will be amazingly great!). You both look fantastic, but most importantly: healthy and happy. I'm rooting for you guys!
#Question What has been the attitude of family and friends to you both being WFPB?
They answered that in another video. They said both their families are extremely supportive.
Aside from the weight loss, what health based improvements have you experienced? (Sleeping better, more energy, better blood pressure, etc.) So proud of you both!
Susanne Brorby, yes, I would like to know this as well about them. #Question
I want to know as well
Cool beans! People forget: you don't need to jump on exercise, even though it's ideal. Just changing the diet is an immediate turnkey move in the right direction for the body. Also, Jessica's SFX are awesome. ;)
Y'all are so likeable and wonderful.
Thank you :)
Cool, I met my wife in a Yahoo chat room back in the day, similar story to yours. I'd listen to a weight loss podcast.
Dude u SO DO have the perfect voice for those jobs! That makes so much sense!
When you squeaked Peef my greyhound came running from the other room looking for him!!!! Thanks for your inspiration guys, loving what you do and all the work you put into these video's to help us all on our plant based journeys.
My two dogs did the same, took me a minute to convince them I didn't have their toy 😂😂
Ah, at last! The mysterious Real Life of Krocks! I especially appreciate Brian’s attitude toward exercise- I was raised to avoid anything involving sport or perspiration. I’ve had to learn to be a gym rat, and I repeatedly forget. (Love to swim, though.)
Keep up the great inspiration. These vids are changing how I eat. First success: absolutely sugar-free 3 weeks now. I feel better.
Questions? Tell us about your dogs, how you got them, is one Brian’s and one Jessica’s?
Oh yes; this comment right here is EXACTLY RIGHT. Hate sports, hate exercise, LOVE SWIMMING. Seriously. Would you live in water 100% of the time too, Patrise? I would. Don't even know why I love it so much... :}
Yes please to a podcast! I think being "boring people" adds to the appeal of your channel! Normal people with normal jobs/lives getting healthy and sharing ideas is way more relatable than professional social media personalities! Also, another vote for the Peef story!
I enjoy watching the both of you whether cooking or talking - very entertaining and really down to earth people. My husband is also a drummer and Brian, that is a full body workout so you do get exercise! Would love to hear the podcast as well as the story of Peef... and see more of your recipes. Keep up the great videos and thank you for sharing your stories..
You two aren't boring, you are just real and simply refreshing no fancy coating, no frills, ..looking forward to peef episode😄
Started listening to the podcasts 2 days ago. Very good. Who else just started?
Thanks Sharon!
Brian, would love to hear your podcast!
I love sincere goofballs - y'all are my people. 😁
I love the Q & A. Peef needs his story told! Brian a podcast would be great. I think your jobs fit you. Such an awesome couple.
Jessica, I know what you mean about loving a plant based diet and staying on it for life. I started eating this way almost three years ago and have never enjoyed food as much as I do now. I never get bored with it cause there’s lots to choose from. Great video, you two are fun and inspiring!
Thanks Terry! There are soooo many recipes I want to try... way more than when we were eating our old ways!
Krocks In The Kitchen I had a lot of food sensitivity when I ate a standard diet, and had frequent migraines from various food triggers. Ironically, I felt much more restricted than I do now and haven’t had a migraine since I switched over. I’ll never go back, and I have a ton of recipes I want to try also. Are you familiar with an app called Copy Me That? Basically, it saves recipes from blogs and such without all the noise and ads around it. Just saves the ingredients and instructions in an easy to read format.
Yes please Brian - I want to see the WFPB videos!
We all really appreciate your videos and the time you invest in creating them.... Thank you both!!
If you can make a "what I eat in a day" video, I personally would be very appreciative but I may not be the only one. Thank you both for being inspirational people in a better way of eating for health and a longer life.
I would totally watch a whole episode about Peef!
Can’t wait for the podcast!
Can you two get any cuter ❤️ sweetness overload ❤️
Thanks 😊❤️
I think one of the things I like best about your channel is not just the amazing weight loss, but that you both really enjoy doing this together. My husband has not joined me willingly, he has complied more and more as he has had health benefits, mainly because he had cancer and we want to prevent a re-occurrence. It is really nice to watch people who can be happy and make whatever they are doing "fun". Yes, he has found that he feels better and I am feeling amazing now, loads of energy. Really has stopped my depression which has been going on since childhood. I am 66 so that is very major.
I have to say, I tried your mashed potatoes, Brian, and even my husband was amazed that he could eat them as they came out of the pot and was shocked he was not putting his soft margarine on them. I think if my husband would get into your channel, he'd really see that he could enjoy be able to see that what we are doing, is not just us, that this is growing in popularity as people see not only the weight loss and major health benefits, but that it is helping us to enjoy the life we have.
I have done a lot of ecology things in my life and loving animals just seems right, that how can you want to eat your friend? Nah... not me. I just love every animal I meet.
Thanks for answering the questions! That was great!
Love to hear Brian’s podcast!!
Your channel is great . Informative and just fun.
I am a Krockian! I love you both, so charming. Hey both Q&A are super. I watch every show and also became a Nutritarian because of your show. Thx and keep up you wonderful videos. Love and hugs xoxo
I am 74 and starting my plant based diet. It is never too late. Many heartfelt thanks for the motivation. I am really appreciating the recipes.
Oh Peef, so mysterious!!
Great video. I love Q and A stuff. I look forward to seeing Peef's travel story.
Thank you for your sharing!
Thanks! Yes, Peef is a very mysterious bear 😅
Aww we love you guys! I love watching your videos and hearing about how this lifestyle is for you! You both are so endearing!
Love the honesty, you guys are fun to watch!
Oh my goodness, the concert tees make a ton of sense now. I was thinking dang, these two really love going to concerts! Loved the Q & A
You guys are just adorable! So glad Jessica sent that My Space comment for all of this to happen! I love your honesty and compassion to help others! I am so thankful to you both, love your videos and feel like you are my support team! 😊 Keep up the excellent work and can't wait to see what's in the future for you guys! Would love to see a Peef video as well!
Loved this video! Keep up the awesome job!
Thank you for sharing your lives and your journey. You two are the best!! ❤️
Yes podcast please!!!! You two are awesome!!
I absolutely love you guys! You're so entertaining and down to earth.
You two rock! Thanks for all you do & share.

You guys are great, def not boring ;) also....you're super motivating. Also....your smokey hummus is amazing. Also, i ate the double batch of it. Myself. In a week. #noregrets.
You two are super great, not boring at all! Very nice to get to know you two a bit more!! So cool Brian is into drumming, and Jessica, you have a super fun sounding job, holy smokes! Can't wait for more Q&A's. Ya'll are my kinda people, great vibes all around :D
You guys are awesome, keep up the good work, the animals and the planet thanx you xxxx
Love the t-shirts! Huge Matchbox Twenty fan. As an Ender's Game nerd, I was also happy to see Brian's t-shirt. The enemy's gate is definitely DOWN! Cheers guys. Thanks for the Q&A! Oh and a definite YES to Brian's podcast!
Yes! We want to hear your podcast! Please make it! Your videos are so good, and your podcast would be too!
Yes to the podcast!!
You guys are great. Love the Q&A. Also, I would DEFINITELY listen to your podcast if you made one!!
I’m considering going plant-based and I found your channel while looking up information on the subject. I’ve been watching since. I love your channel!
Guys, you are so cool. You are such an inspiration. Love your videos. And Brian, do the broadcast!!!!!!
Loved this!!!! 🥰
Yes, please, for the podcast!!
Yes to the podcast!
Your videos always make me smile! Can’t wait to learn more about Peef. And I would definitely listen to Brian’s WFPB podcast.
You guys are so relatable and inspiring. Thanks for all your time and effort you put into these! I've tried several of your recipes so far, and they are all great!
Yes podcast!!!!
I love you guys! I’ve been binge watching all of your videos and you make me laugh so hard sometimes. Thanks for taking the time to make videos!
I’m so obsessed with you guys - you seem so down to earth and to genuinely just be enjoying this journey and your discovery of a whole food plant based diet! Cant wait for the Peef video 😂 long time coming!! ❤️❤️
I have a long-ish commute and like to binge podcasts on my drive... so YES podcast, please. You two are awfully cute/awesome together. I'm so glad I found your channel!
Also, Brian, kudos on the shirt again. I'm assuming the literary reference, of course.
You two are such cool and nice people! Thanks
Congratulations!! You both are AMAZING! Thank you for your thoughts and hard work. Keep up the good work.
I love Rob Thomas too! And Sidewalk Angels is a great organization!
Loved hearing how much Brian loves his job!
You two are so much fun to watch. We live about an hour south of St Louis and it is fun to watch you guys out and about. What is your favorite vegan restaurant in St Louis?
It's interesting that you say eating plant based diet has positive side effects such as benefits to the environment & animals ... when in fact doing right by our animal family has positive consequences which are better human health, a better environment and a future. I'm writing a book titled Cognitive Dissonance and Altered Humanity and this is raised in several chapters.
We are always learning new things... this journey has taught us a lot, but we have so much more to learn. Would definitely love to read your book when it is out. Thanks for sharing.
Excellent! I am vegan and feel that by avoiding cruelty to animals, there are massive health benefits to me and the environment!
Yes, like when people say they love animals so much, coo at baby animal videos and then IG a picture of themselves eating a burger with cheese and bacon 🤦♀️
I enjoyed this video, good job.
I love watching your videos. You are both so relatable and real. So refreshing! Thanks you guys, you make this all feel more doable over time. 4 months in, down 17 pounds, about 80 or so to go. You guys are my Rob Thomas. You keep me believing that I can do this long term!
I loved the honesty!
Thanks for sharing ... fun video .. I loved hearing about your careers, very interesting career fields
Yaaasss! Podcast!!!
Yessss podcast!!! ✨✨✨
You two are so much fun! Thanks for sharing Krocks in the kitchen! The food ideas and how to fix stuff are so helpful !.....plus all your senanigans!
'1!
I think it’s so neat how you two met online and now you work together online!
Great video, right there with you on the giant salad! Thank you folks!
You both seem so chill and down to earth! #question Do you all ever argue about video content/production/editing etc? So glad to have found you on YT!
You are inspiring and so down to earth! Totally enjoy your videos and learning about the plant based lifestyle...will continue to watch and learn!
Great advice! Fun to watch!
I so enjoyed this video! Such honesty and willingness to share from y’all is so refreshing. Thank you! 🙏♥️
Yes please put together the podcast!
#Question
If someone could buy only one more kitchen appliance (besides a Vitamix) would you probably get more use from a Griddler or an Air Fryer?
Thanks so much, you two!
Ramble on. I love you guys. You make our day! You are not boring at all. You are very real and that is what we love.
Omg I love rob Thomas too!! Been to so many of his concerts. He’s so amazing.
My husband and I met on MySpace too!☺ Loved this QandA, thanks for sharing.
I love you guys and look forward to new videos.
Love you two, you guys always make this old lady smile 😎 I have been WFPB since 3/1/2019 like you lovin’ it , never to return to the SAD way of eating. Plant Strong forever 🌱✌🏼
plain and simple.....you two are just such nice human beings! A podcast would be wonderful! Also, would love to hear how your health has changed.....did either of you have joint pain? High cholesterol, etc?
LOVE THE VIDEO!!! LOVED ALL THE ANSWERS, WAS SO ENTERTAINING, YOU GUYS ARE OVERALL WONDERFUL!!! KEEP IT UP😁
Jessica and Brian: you both have such great smiles and personalities! You're chill!
So love your story and I just love watching your videos. Very inspiring and has really helped me to get back on track with WFPB diet. Love how you get out your salad items and call it your salad bar (from another video). Thank you!
You guys are great! Thank you, for being honest and truthful about your journey. You inspire me to keep trying everyday even when I fail. I love your videos. Thank you, thank you.
OH MY GOSH! I Paused your video to listen to Rob Thomas and he IS amazing!! Thanks guys! I just love you kids!
Yessss Rob Thomas is the best. He's the real deal :D
I just love you guys....you are both a riot to watch but also very informative....
You are both an inspirations. Just found you recently and I totally relate to you (especially Jessica's spreadsheets and charts!). Love your commentary notes pointing out what one of you is thinking or doing that we wouldn't catch...lol. Thank you for your videos.
