What a pity it is not financially viable to import a Helix mattress to Brazil. Meanwhile, methinks that about your video my comment on it may go like this: «"Requiem for a Nun" [1951] is the source of one of [William] Faulkner's [1897-1962] best-known lines: "The past is never dead. It's not even past."» [From the Wikipedia namesake article on William Faulkner's play]. Okay, Faulkner and you, dear Zach, do not only agree on this matter but are both arguably correct. And thank you and Alastair for the beautiful and wonderful video perfectly demonstrating the point. And indeed there is also the very famous last line of F. Scott Fitzgerald's "The Great Gatsby" [1925] that reads: « So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.»
You guys are so made for each other.So in love.
Chiros herrein australia say you should go no longer than 4 to six years before you replace the one you have or the back willstart to get damage done.
Zach I am a 70 year old gay man who stumbled across your videos. I don't think you realize it, you have already written your book. In fact you already filmed it: a love story. No gratuitous sex or violence or porn. A beautiful love story that everyone can identify and watch. I started binge watching them. That's when I realized how beautiful your love story was written. I am an English Major and a writer. Fill in the gaps; your movie is finished. God bless.
These aren't videos... they're mini-masterpieces! And two within 5 days!!
Haha appreciate the love
I love this video the way Alastair is so silent just listening to his man get his pent up emotions out what a perfect husband to have Zach you are one lucky blessed man
Alastair is one in a million, definitely.
Absolutely
I mean this with great love and affection....Zach is definitely the "show pony". You can't not love him for that.
Alastair is the practical one and Zach is the romantic one.
My dear Zach, you were just like the rest of us. Dramatic, self absorbed, always on the lookout for a friend who wanted to play doctor. You are so serious and quite pleasing to look at. And you found your perfect soulmate, Alastair. He is someone so special that it boggles my mind and soul. As my partner has told me, finding your soulmate is just a matter of advertising your most positive attributes and reaching a large population of like minded guys. AND he said don’t ever worry about your looks. Tall or short, chunky or thin, fair or dark; no matter your looks, someone will find you appealing. You guys keep your love alive, and remain faithful to each other.
Love you both,
Respectfully,
Wm Jon A., SRT, BSEE, MS, Ph.D.
After watching almost all your videos, I have noticed an increased sense of maturity since Alastair returned from deployment. Please continue to discuss if possible defining moments in your relationship with Alastair. You both are warm and genuine and I enjoy all of your content.
Haven’t considered that. Worth looking at
AZB looking forward to it!
You really don’t understand how fast I clicked on this video. Fast might even be an understatement. 😂
You missed what the Vid said. You were being “DRAMATIC” 🏳️🌈
Haha thanks
You and Alastair have such fascinating conversations while waiting at the Whataburger drive-through! I think there are ways that we change through time and other ways in which we don’t, and that’s OK. I know I’m a very different person from who I was 20 years ago, and he was a very different person from who I was 40 years ago. And yet I recognize myself in both of them.
I don’t want to be “Dramatic” or anything but the glow up 👉🏻❤️👈🏻
We all change as we get older. We find ourselves and what we want in life and when that happens that's when we discover how dumb we were when we were younger.
Lord asking Alastair if he's hungry while his head is in your crotch priceless lol
I don't think you two would have liked each other in High School either, but you met at the right time.
Zach, you are dramatic in your own subtle way, that's what makes your videos so interesting, you made a trip to What a Burger interesting, so much so that I am heading to White Castle, no What a Burgers yet in St Louis.
"You were a very dramatic child" ... "😄" (luv your mom's stories!) 👍
Hey guys, just wanted to say, thank you for posting these videos, your content has helped me through hard times.
Your videos give me hope, that one day I might be able to find someone to love, and never be afraid to say that.
Thank you 💙
Ikr
Comments like that always make me feel good. Thank you for your support. I wish only the best for you
@@AdventuresofZachandB I feel the exactly same way actually.
Believe in yourself.....
Love will come for you. Love is for everybody.
New viewers from Tokyo! Thanks so much for sharing your memories and experiences! ❤️❤️
Love chatting and meeting ppl from other lands Hope you are well
Thanks for watching!
I've change alot over the years, I'm 74 yrs old. Looking back, I wish I never answered the phone one night ( no caller ID) it changed my life in a bad way. My life may still have changed but I' never know. Thank you both for all the happiness your content brought me!
Guess all that counts now is how you go forward. I hope you’re living peacefully, despite whatever happened w that call
Zach, your smile, aa always, lights up the screen. This was a goodie to pull out of your archives, especially hearing your mom's reflections.
This the kind of stage of a person that I like most!
The sincerity, maturity, serenity of thier life. The contentment, the warmth and affection they both have for each other. The kind of music they listened too. Honesty between them and the emotional intelligence they both have. And they always.. Always listened to each other.. Theyre love just so warm and easy to relate to.❤
Alastair please allow dog on bed, it means a world to Zach i guess. I hope u guys find a way to make the dog be clean as Alastair expects over bed. I too have ocd thoughts on cleanliness. I wish u guys always be together like this. Love! Long live!
Your video topic embodies the adage “Youth is wasted on the young.”
Loved the beginning to the video so moving and powerful
I just love listening to you talk! So adorable!!
every time I see one of your videos and see you two together I swear I almost cry, its too cute
Loved this content Zack and Alastair
I always love the conversations y’all have on the vlogs. You’re doing so much to help so many people. Thank you Zach and Alastair❤️
Thank you for all the good you have done through sharing your lives on this platform 🙏
I love you Zach and Alastair !! I love watching y’all’s videos together!
You guys are simply delightful, and such an inspiration.
Such a "from the heart" vid. Thx for sharing. Great video.
Every video I love you guys more and more. The sincerity, the warmth, the maturity, the insight, the entertainment, the values, and the sheer humanity that comes across. Thanks from across the ocean. 🏴
So cute Your relationship wit Yr mom
The best change you could ever make in your life is learning to love yourself , understanding yourself
Being comfortable alone with yourself
Even if you have a walks beside you
You still only have you
So love yourself because your worth living
Agreed
Amen
Thank you both for being so wide open in sharing your thoughts. This serves more folks that you can imagine. Being self-deprecating or modest in your self-assessment is a wonderful and valuable tool that we should all feel free to wield. Only the kindness of time softens how we see that reflection in the mirror and in that find the grace to ask others for forgiveness for what we haven't done & mercy for what we have done. The path to your future self is free and unburdened! 🙂
So glad you are back Zach. You are so wise, beyond your years!! I truly enjoy your videos!!
Love your content. It’s so unique in showing your stream of consciousness. There’s authenticity, relatability, and your soothing voice to cap it all off with a never faults ring nervous chuckle at the end. A great window into not just your life but your mind also. Something, later on, that meets your goals of something to hold onto and cherish.
Simply beautiful! Thank you for creating and sharing this.
Your communication just expands and grows with every video -- I've been following you guys for a good bit now, and I even find myself reflecting on my own life when you guys pose questions to each other. You guys are a blessing in so many ways!!
Another awesome video, my heart literally melt when I saw how Alastair was lying comfortably in between Zach’s legs, that image is the epitome of love.
Wow! This is one of my favorite videos you have done. I'm 61 and I agree with all that you have said about changing over the years. You go from experience to experience and a part of you changes because you understand yourself more. You learn about the things you can change from the things that you can't. You also can get more empathy and reflection of other people and your own self. I really like these kinds of talks from you. Thanks for doing this. You Guys are Great people.
I just think your videos are so calm and lovely, I don't know where's the drama. Your videos just make smile like a fool.
Good for you both for going back and making things right with someone you’ve hurt in the past! It takes courage and humility to do so and there is a great shortage of these things in the world today. Thanks for sharing.
Everyone can look back and perhaps feel guilt and felt things should have been different but is all part of growing and learning and development into adult hood in helping us to understand ourselves and other's better and how to treat people we meet that come into our lives daily. Enjoy life with each other and love one another and grow old together with happy and wonderful memories! Love seeing the two of you together and keep giving us great videos to enjoy!
Openness and honesty. Two key ingredients in any relationship. As always, thanks for another wonderful video. And as it has been for some others, it was Zach's beautiful bass voice that initially caught my attention and it was his honesty that pulled me in.
I’ve watched your videos for years and I’ve never commented before but after watching this video, I’ve just got to say, whenever I watch you guys and hear you talk it always makes me think. Recently due to a change in career I’ve thought back on a past friendship that I ruined because I was too foolish to realize what she was saying about an ex what right, and I actually reached out to her to apologize for not listening to her and for literally never speaking to her again after she tried talking to me. I’ve cut people off many times since but never felt badly about it because it didn’t effect me as much as ruining that friendship did. So thank you
Just a refreshingly honest and open video. One of my favorites that you've shared with us. Thank you.
In my experience it is good not to know what is down the road. Better to live in this moment and be open to the changes that will inevitably come as life progresses. When I think back it's easy to see where mistakes were made, triumphs happened and they all shaped me into who I am now. You guys are lovely and I look forward to seeing your vlogs. Thanks for being you and sharing that with us.
You are a beautiful human being and so lucky bro. You also have beautiful mother and family.
Zach and Alister thanks for sharing this video for it hits home with a lot of the feelings most go through.
I thank God that I have both you and Alistair in my online life now. I really remember what it was like to be in by teens twenties and I wish you guys had been around then. I don't know if you are both aware how much you help people just by being yourselves and putting yourselves out there on line. You are both incredible. I love you both very much ❤️
Thoroughly enjoyed this video! Thanks for giving my life a bit of a different perspective. One is never too old to learn! Thank you🙏🏻
i love the texture of your voice.
i don't care who knows it.
I just found your site and can't wait to catch up on your vids. I love how serious and meaningful the conversation was on this video. Man, I'm truly glad I found this!!
I’m loving allll the posts lately ♥️♥️
loving the amount of content recently, coffee and tequila is great too, great way to start the day :)
Hi Shaun
yep
Haha thanks so much bud
@@AdventuresofZachandB Of course! Been here since your coming out video, grew up in west texas and your videos always felt so relatable and have helped me navigate my way through high school and college. Y'all have a special place in my heart haha
@@ShaunHarlow Hi
Zach I’ve been watching your videos for years now and I have to say that your videos are … compelling. And only getting better with time. There is an authenticity and even intimacy about them that you just don’t find elsewhere. You talk about things that are important and that really matter in life. And your presentation and editing skills are downright artful. You should have 30 million subscribers IMHO, but I guess lots of folks don’t really watch UA-cam to look deep inside themselves!
I believe you have a bright future in film/videography that I hope you will continue to pursue. And I also believe you have found the perfect soulmate in Alastair. OK, I’ll get down off this soapbox now. But huge thanks for sharing your journey with us all!
I absolutely loved these conversations. It's stuff that really makes you stop and think.
Thank you very much for the videos. They give me hope.
OMG those cute videos!! Thanks for sharing!!
Zach, I wanna say thanks for the amazing video at your house in Texas during your quarantine and I'm proud of you, thanks to your husband, Alastair!! 🙂
Thanks for the upload, I really enjoyed listening to your stories/talking. Zach your voice is always so soothing, very calming, esp in this video for some reason. Glad to see that you guys are doing well. Looking forward to the next time.
Peace!
I love you both. You just warm my heart so much
This is life. You may try to interpret it more compassionately or positively, but it's messy and incongruous and a roll of the dice regardless of your upbringing or circumstances. It can be inspirational or terrifying in this regard, but it is nonetheless true. If you can embrace the uncertainty, the messiness, and accept that rolling the dice is just as likely to lead you in the "right" direction as is a well-plotted and intellectually vetted plan, you have found the secret to life. Now all you have to do is completely accept the chaos of this realization and embrace it! All else is foolishness and reverberation.
You make some interesting points which ring true to me. “Embracing the uncertainty”. I’m pretty sure I have never really done that. I always feel like I have to know, for sure, what’s coming and how can I control it. I always try for the safe way. But something else about this video has got me thinking about what Zach said about who he will be twenty years from now and how we change and I thought…some day, some change is likely to occur and Zach and Allister will move on with their lives and there won’t be any more UA-cam videos and we won’t know where or what they are up to or “how the story ends” and will we care? Or will they care? I used to follow this blog of this gay guy and when I would go to work I would immediately first thing in the morning Iwould log on and check in to see what all “my” bloggers were doing and eventually this guy (Tony) stopped blogging and this is at least five or six years ago and I still wonder what happened to him and what he’s doing and if he’s ok. Now I’m starting to sound a little pathetic. I can’t even imagine why I’m even saying this.
Awwww so nice to see pics of you when you were younger. I laughed when you were told you were a dramatic child.😂🤣😀
you two are doing LIFE!
Zach Please continue this conversation and talk about defining moments. You have established your base personality but as you say there are decisions that form you some big some small. More discussion... great content... It is interesting that your parents have little to do with this after a certain age
Absolutely. It was a great talk
Love this new format. Love that you Zach said that you have been a little shit in the past but you have apologised! Love seeing Alistair resting in your lap and you asking him if he is hungry! So good to have you back and with new formats too. Don’t over do it and learn to say “no” when you need to! Love yourself Zach ‘cos you are the most loveable dude that I have ever met.
It is so heartwarming that you two are so connected. Left me with the song In Your Eyes by Peter Gabriel that suits you as a couple. Love you guys!
Zach and Alistair I enjoy your energy and the raw conversations you two carry out. The talks are awesome because they often give us the chance to reflect on common ideas and opinions 💯 XO keep smiling and being you!!
Yeahhh!!!! Premiere!!!!
There really has been so much growth from both your sides and I think I'd take a page from one of Zach's book and embrace the concept of accountability.
Thanks for sharing and being so vulnerable.
Beautiful
Love you alastair and zach
Wow, I just discovered you guys and thought this series is great and them you go and mentioned SMA. Glad to see a fellow alumni who is out and doing well. (Class of '87) you two are amazing.
Your talks with Alastair and family are like ASMR I just get lost in them. Very relaxing, therapeutic *and* thought provoking
Hi Zach and Alastair, thank you for sharing your life lessons to us. I have many points in life where significant changes have occurred. Last year up to this moment, I am learning many things about myself. And it did really change me for the better :)
Zach I’ve watched all your videos hundreds of times this one had me in tears
You are such a good storyteller and the videography is perfect. And you are very insightful for such a young man. You and Alistair are so perfect for each other. I love your videos 🥰
I love the idea of the video it's very calm❤️
The best episode you guys have made!
I love watching your videos. Keep up the good work.
Zack and Alistair I love watching all you videos you guys made me glad to see you guys get along so well. Take care and love of love for you guys.
I am glad to see you posting videos I miss you guys.
Can't tell you how much your videos have helped me love you guys
I love watching ur videos y’all teach me so much
This was a very very good video and you guys are so lucky to have each other 68th and I've been wishing for that all my life and what I was was a service station cuz I didn't think I was worth having what you all have take care Keep On Truckin love you
I'm glad to see you guys back .
Whatever your life brings you take solace in the fact that you are living it and not hiding from it. Many gay men don't have the courage to live their true lives but you do. For you there will be ups and downs, happies and sads, twists and turns and at the end of it all wisdom and inner contentment will be what you possess. Don't focus on the misses...only the hits.
Love you both!!!
Love you momma Garcia thank you for having a son that blessed the world in so many ways he's my SUPERMAN 🦸♂️
Good vlog guys. I enjoy you sharing some of your really personal feelings.
And I thank you for your time
Love your videos!!
Wow … this was an amazing video!! Thank you 🙏
Love this discussion
Such a wonderful voice you have ❤
sooo goodlooking Zach!🖤
That laugh can turn a grey day sunny. Never loose it as it brightens up the world. Cheers.
It’s always comforting to see you guys be so open and honest with each other. Marriage is really hard but when you realize you always have a friend to talk to it helps.
Life is a journey!
Youre giving us so much more content and i'm so happy :) thank yall for being you
Miss it so much! Thank you boys for being back to this videos, feel family again
Thanks for watching!
I wish I could have what the two of you have! You guys are great! Who cares how we were in high school. Everyone grows up! Love you guys.
It is a few minutes before midnight of July 10 -11, 2021, and I wish ZachandB a happy anniversary. May this new year bring joy and good things to you.
So happy to see you making videos again. Always love your content and you have been a big inspiration for our little UA-cam channel.
I’ll check out your channel! Thanks for watching mine
@@AdventuresofZachandB Absolutely. And thank you
