I could listen to this man for hours and hours. If my college professor sounded like this id have passed his class. This channel is very, very underrated. One of top 3 best💥.💜
Paul, you and the team are truly incredible! There's never a boring second when you're around. Keep shining with that fantastic energy, everyone! Paul, I wish you had been my history teacher back in school-I’m sure I would have aced it! Much love to all of you!
Really, really enjoying this channel and I'm glad I serendipitously stumbled upon it while bouncing around other historical content. The narration is absolute superb. Paul is a genuine storyteller of the highest order.
Hi from Australia. Thank you Paul, your voice is a great big Scottish hug and just what is needed at present 😊I have actually watched you for hours on end. Oh and the compilations are wonderful and very informative. You and the team do an amazing job. Keep them coming. 👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🕊️
Thank you for the story of Daniel Lambert of my home city Leicester. I always felt sad for Daniel until hearing this of his remarkable personality and education.
I completely agree! Its amazing how history always has such unexpected twists and turns. Do you have a favorite historical story or event that still blows your mind every time you think about it?
The story of Baby Doe made me tear up and shed a few rears🥺 What a tragic end to such an incredibly resilient & courageous lady. It's nice to hear that she is remembered fondly and her story is still being told. Rest well Baby Doe🙏🏻
I was feeling so anxious all day and nothing was helping until I stumbled upon this video; somehow the presenter's voice and demeanor helped me to finally calm down and immerse in the stories fully. The way he talks about the people in the stories, with such empathy and kindness, makes you feel connected with humanity, even though these people who are long gone. Especially the stories of Daniel Lambert and Baby Doe Tabor. The Baby Doe story made such an impression on me I had to pause the video and search more about her, I wanted to check if she had any surviving family (sadly none) and found out her beautiful antique bed from her "rich times" was on an auction just like 10 years ago! (no idea if anyone bought it but you can google it just to see it)
@@Croneposse429 no, she was actually his wife :) "baby doe" was just a nickname, she married the guy who owned the silver mines. They named one of their daughters Silver Dollar though, it's all in the video 😊
The lighthouse story I've heard before, full of mystery, watching it again it is completely mind blowing what the ocean can do, but the only thing I can never get my head around is the oil weather jackets left behind, and the fact know one was left to care for the light.
Always a joy and quite insightful, your stories are breathtaking as well as groovy. I think I could listen to you tell tales for hours as your voice and delivery are nothing short of spectacular. Many thanks for sharing.
1:25:17 I live in Toodyay, the town that celebrates Moondyne Joe every year with our Moondyne Festival! Never thought I'd see our little town in one of your videos but here we are! Also your first pronunciation of 'Toodyay' was perfect haha
I used to hang out at the minnicks House with John minnick's son. They had to cut out a picture window to get him to the hospital. He lost weight and got down to 900 lbs and sadly passed.
Baby Doe sounds fascinating. I'm going to research more. To have lived in such luxury without being welcomed by her society and then resorting to live in squalor when her fortune changed suggests that she was never a gold-digger - she simply lived with the hands life dealt her and with her own sense of pride, resilience, and acceptance rather than trying to fit in.
It was a sad story. And that her daughter wanted nothing to do with her after raising her. Not the way a mother should leave this world, or a daughter treat the woman who gave birth to her🥺
The stories presented on this channel never cease to hold my attention. When I want to go to sleep, I watch a different channel. When I want to stay awake, I watch this channel. Well done. Cheers from the States. 🍻
both baby doe's story and the story of moondyne joe's put me in mind of robert hunter's sublime lyrics. most readily discount the grateful dead as gormless hippies, but a quiet reading of hunter's words might surprise one. you have a good knack for uncovering wonderful stories as well as a great voice for delivering them.
Love your stuff, Paul. I’m a similar age to you and it reminds me very much of how much I look forward to Jackanory as a child keep up the good work. Merry Christmas.
Thank you very much Paul, you're a natural storyteller and a wonderful one at that. I also appreciate so much the extensive research that you conduct. Baby Doe Tabor was an incredible woman for all of the right reasons and her disgraceful treatment at the 'hands' of her peers was nothing more than delayed jealousy. Moondyne Joe deserved a medal for tenacity if nothing else, and fair play to the Governor for keeping to their word and granting him a pardon. Take care Paul.
I love your amazing stories, in particular the one about rhymes and folklore tales of which I hope to see more of please! The story of Daniel Lambert made my heart leap from joy, we need more like him as of disposition and character. Just too sad that his weight cut his life short way too soon as I am sure he would have positively affected many many ppl.
Your voice , and stories , give people something to contemplate rather than everyday problems . You are the dream- bringer Paul !. Not bad singer to. Thanks butty. Dave
I love your videos! Chapter markers would be a helpful addition. I get distracted sometimes while playing your videos in the background, and it's a real chore to find the beginning of a story.
I love those B&W images, they're the best ones I've seen for a while. Oh, for the love of Dog I hope they're not bloody AI art, I'm still using wet photography at times and they're exactly the type of pictures I'd have trouble with not taking them. Unhinged rant was unhinged
Distant cousin of Helen Duncan through the McFarlane line, family had it that she was very accurate but that when she started charging she was under pressure to perform and come up with stuff to keep the punters happy.
I sincerely pray that the Lord will bless you with a much longer life so that you may continue to share your stories with us as you bring us truly enjoyable entertainment without the use of foul language.
When you speak of the islands on the west of Scotland, it warms my heart. I was able to trace my ancestry back to Lewis Island and quite possibly the earliest ancestors of the Morrison clan (spelled several different ways) and later to Dairsy (sp?) Castle? Scotland.
Oh my goodness! The infamous “Aunt Babe” I could never hear much about as a child. My great aunt would whoosh us out of the room when the grand Dames of my family (they are legion!) 😮 would tell stories. Somehow we are related to one of her siblings. That’s about all I know, sadly. My mother mentioned her a few times as a scandalous person she heard about when she was little, too.
Exelllent complilation. TY as always. By the way, do you think you will be adding the WIN tin cup back to the store? I have one, but I want to buy a few more. Thank you.🌻💜
These stories remind me of the Paul Harvey series "The Rest of the Story" from the 90s and early 2000s. Back then, we had to be content with hearing one story per day at lunchtime. Paul Harvey was equally talented at storytelling.
Must be nice to be in the UK with Thanksgiving over I want it to be over in America many entitled families travel and complain while still celebrating while many are neglected have no family or anything to be grateful for cold and hungry but not homeless .
A new episode to watch before bed!
Something about Paul's voice that is just soothing.
😊
I watch his videos but I also listen to the compilations, turned way down low, as a sleep aid! His voice is that soothing!
🎉❤
Just found this channel tonight, making a playlist right now.
Thanks Paul and Team! Looking forward to the binge tomorrow.
I could listen to this man for hours and hours. If my college professor sounded like this id have passed his class. This channel is very, very underrated. One of top 3 best💥.💜
True, and this isn't all he does, Paul is an actor, too!❤
@@WVgrl59and a musician!!
As an American, you are part of my mental health program (especially the last few weeks). Thank you for your hard work and the long compilations 🙏
😂😂😂😂😂 🎉 better toughen up buttercup 😂
It is a good combination of stories, just right to unwind by. 😊
I’m glad I’m not the only one who feels the same way.
Paul, you and the team are truly incredible! There's never a boring second when you're around. Keep shining with that fantastic energy, everyone! Paul, I wish you had been my history teacher back in school-I’m sure I would have aced it! Much love to all of you!
I’m watching my best friend sleep right now 🐈⬛❤ she’s been my companion for eighteen years and I love her more than anything. Love you, Sadie.
Lol, me too, my 10 year old, 105 pd Pit-mix Rocky, he's laying next to me snoring the night away.
How wonderful that you shared your sentiment with us 😍
I'm with my 15 year old Jack Russell mix.❤
Im with my Yorkie mix Bandit and he stole my blanket. 🐕🐾🐾😂
I’m with my tank. He’s a French bulldog and sound asleep.
I love your voice in telling the story. ❤❤
We're SO grateful for you good sir & your whole team, with much love, on thansgiving, from the US.
Really, really enjoying this channel and I'm glad I serendipitously stumbled upon it while bouncing around other historical content. The narration is absolute superb. Paul is a genuine storyteller of the highest order.
Paul, you are just fabulous! Love from the USA! ❤
This is the rest of my evenings entertainment sorted then!
Thanks Paul, keep up the great work.
❤ from a UK subscriber 🇬🇧
"AN"....
Watch the rest of them later just looked at the clock 3.55 am lol, thanks Paul so far really interesting stories as usual 👍 😀
Ah! Huzzah! I love the compilations! Thank you Paul!
Huzzah, indeed!!
Yes! Nice and cozy, for us alone on Thanksgiving....thank you sir!
Alone is o.k. Its just an " eating holiday ". We single folks " Wild Turkeys" meet for our own celebration.
Thank you Mr Paul, love these compilations

Was this the daughter of the “Silver King”? There was an opera written about her, called, “The Ballad of Baby Doe”. Fascinating story!❤

From the UK. A fascinating kaleidoscope of stories. Many thanks

Nowadays most narratives are being done by AI, its always good to hear Paul's voice
Yes, an actual living person! AI is such a turn off.
Exactly!!!
As an amateur history buff, I say these presentations are SUPERBLY presented! Few indeed have such speaking skills!
Always a joy and quite insightful, your stories are breathtaking as well as groovy. I think I could listen to you tell tales for hours as your voice and delivery are nothing short of spectacular. Many thanks for sharing.
Who also immediately hits the like button even before watching the video 🤣🤣🤣
Always do, because I know I'm going to enjoy the content and pauls voice is an absolute joy to listen to.😊
@deewhite4346 yes, his accent and voice are interesting and soothing 😌
Eye do!@#
Me
Never been disappointed once 😊
Thanks!
You gave thanks. On Thanksgiving. That's deep, dude.
No sarcasm
Thank you so much, Brian 🙏☺
Thanks for the upload, Paul!

Love the Nursery Rhymes one. We sang those as children. Didn't know they had such dark meanings.
Growing up in Iowa, in the USA, we always said "Ashes, ashes, we all fall down."
Happy Thanksgiving 🦃
From Colorado USA 🇺🇸
😊💙🥰
The British don't celebrate Thanksgiving. Just saying. But Happy Thanksgiving to you in the USA ❤🎉
Baby Doe's story gets me every time.
She's beautiful, even in the black and white photo, she looks mixed to me. Of course I'm not sure, but she does to me❤
It was so sad 😞

I do love all your content and I’m watching your older things I understand… But I just found your channel and it’s fabulous. Thank you so much.
Brilliantly executed thank you for sharing this and for your time 😊
Your voice and storytelling is so interesting during daytime and so much "sandman" during nighttime.
Your voice , and stories , give people something to contemplate rather than everyday problems . You are the dream- bringer Paul !. Not bad singer to. Thanks butty. Dave
I love your videos!
Chapter markers would be a helpful addition. I get distracted sometimes while playing your videos in the background, and it's a real chore to find the beginning of a story.
Been a long day, & notified hours ago, new video, finally relax & realised a long compilation, im getting the posh ice cream out now 😁🥰
As always another great show and loved the nursery rhymes and the meaning of them. Thank you for your shows and there always greet.
I love you, man. Thank you so much for your content.
I'm thankful for this on our holy day of gobble gobble! Happy Thanksgiving
Hello Paul! I just love these compilations. Thank you my friend! ❤
Happy Thanksgiving from Mississippi!!!! 🦃
This is my bedtime story.. and I am thoroughly enjoying it! Thank you, Paul and team.. 🙏🤗

Unhinged rant was unhinged
Love Paul's videos
Love the Daniel Lambert story!
What a remarkable man!
As always I’ve enjoyed this chapter and look forward to the next. Thank you🌹
Hell YES. Another Thanksgiving miracle
Soothing voice. Grammatically accurate and, blessings on you, not repetitious!!!!!!
Thank you from Florida! Listening on Thanksgiving evening and trying not to succumb to a turkey coma.
Your videos have a similar vibe to Murder Maps, which I love. 😊
Thank you so much Mr.Paul it's Thanksgiving day so what better way to finish this day❤
Brings back memories of "I Want To Marry A Lighthouse Keeper" from Clockwork Orange...😮
Brother you need to start a second channel dedicated to singing nursery rhymes called, “Rhyme I Never.”
Distant cousin of Helen Duncan through the McFarlane line, family had it that she was very accurate but that when she started charging she was under pressure to perform and come up with stuff to keep the punters happy.
Hello Paul! Thank you for the new upload!
❤❤❤❤❤❤ I wish you would consider audio books. 😊
Daniel sounded like a beautiful human. Rip❤❤😢
Fabulous history!!!
Very interesting. Thank you
I tried going to sleep with this guy and was up til 4. Thank you
Happy Thanksgiving from America
I'm British. We don't give thanks. 🎉
Great!! Love your tales😊
Thank you Paul
Great story-teller!
I sincerely pray that the Lord will bless you with a much longer life so that you may continue to share your stories with us as you bring us truly enjoyable entertainment without the use of foul language.
Jack and Jill went up the hill to fetch a pail of water....jill forgot to take the pill...and now they have a daughter.....
I am Canadian, in my 50's, and as kids we always said "Husha, husha," not "Ashes, ashes".
I don't believe in ghosts but enjoy your shows, the history, you're a gent😊
Thank you very much.

Yea!! 🎉 The best remedy for being overstuffed from eating Thanksgiving favorites!!!
The Lighthouse...Great Movie
A tale of madness
Davy Jones...sleep well, Sir

There are always stories that are new to me
i've seen Lambert's waistcoat in the Stamford museum, also visited his huge grave in St Martin's churchyard at Stamford, interesting.
Thank you Sir
