    I've been watching your videos since you made the reaction video to "The history of everything I guess.." and for some odd reason I have never to this day commented. Well, after seeing your emotional reaction at Belleau Wood, I could not keep my silence any longer. You are officially the best UA-camr on this damn platform. I know that is a subjective comment, but it's one I stand behind so wholeheartedly. You see, I'm a man from Spring Hill TN (Yes there is a small Civil War battlefield here) with a wife & 1 yr old daughter. I don't watch any TV and barely play Video Games anymore because of my schedule, I've watched UA-cam for years to go to sleep, entertain me on breaks at work, and countless other things. I have never really stuck with one UA-cam channel for long. It has now been over a year counting that almost every night... I digest a new video you have uploaded. I learn something new... I take in just the amazing emotion you have for History like I do... and seeing your emotion RAW from travelling like I love to do.. Man.. I know this has been quite the comment and you probably didn't even read all of it 😅 but I cannot express how much admiration I have for what you do Chris. Thank you so much for what you do.

    Chris, I love the way you always bring us on a journey with a social/historical commentary. However, you take every viewpoint and opinion into account providing a great deal of empathy towards all involved.
    You are like Anthony Bourdain meets Mr. Rogers. Keep up the great work!!!

    No matter what you talk about or show is it's entertaining. This video resonated a lot with me because at almost the same time you were doing this I was taking my first ever trip from the UK to the States and (apart from first class!) so much of the wonder of just seeing new places for the first time and having new experiences reminds me of that trip

    I remember going to Europe and having it all figured out. Sleeping on the trans-Atlantic flight was going to be the perfect way for me to avoid jetlag. Of course, that didn't happen, but I still felt fine. Of course, it wasn't long until I was out cold and throwing off my perfectly planned sleep schedule.
    I also remember convincing myself that I wouldn't go with any preconceived notions of what to expect. In a sense, I didn't, because I didn't really know what to expect. Somehow, it still defied my expectations. Nothing will prepare you for a trip like that outside of doing it, no matter how much you think you've prepared for it. But that ends up being part of the fun of it.
    Btw, what was the verdict on the pizza?
