Congratulations on your Sobriety. It's something to be proud of 👏
Thank you !
14 thousand subscribers. Wow!! I just congratulated you on 10000 subscribers a few days ago. Your channel is growing so fast. Don't think I've seen a UA-cam channel grow so fast. The reason why that's because you're an incredibly likeable and lovely person. Your videos are always very interesting and you have the right sense of humor. Stay as you are!
I bought the iPad because of you. Thanks a million for the great conversation. Love from Germany
Thank you!
You are one freakin cool ass dude! Love love love your sense of humor! I’m proud of you and your sobriety. OCD parking comment had me SCREAMING! Much love Bren.
Thank you! Some people just can’t park🤷♂️
Hi. I have just subscribed to your channel. I have watched quite a few episodes since I came across it last night laying in bed watching, it helped put me to sleep (in the good way). I have very recently stopped drinking alcohol and I find your channel helps to motivate me to keep going. The greatest blessing I have besides my kids is my sobriety so thank you. Keep up the great work. Much respect from Melbourne Australia.
Me too 😂
We grow old when we stop playing with toys.

Another banger!!!!! I’m on a roll watching these videos!
Congrats on 7 months, Bren.
Proud of you!
Awesome job Bren!
It's 2 am found your videos! Just watched the 15 items needed for car living. Thanks so much. Moving soon into my SUV to save money for a bit. Much luv and respect 🙏
Best of luck!
I really really love watching your videos - you make a tough situation look very tolerable and even enjoyable at times.
You are humble and appreciative of what you DO have.
And keep up the sobriety. There’s nothing good that comes at the bottom of a bottle.

Jesus that's expensive for raisins!!!😮😮😮 In Ireland they're just around 1 euro for a big bag of unsweetened ones. By the way huge congrats on your sobriety, you should be very proud of yourself. Im sober six years now, best decision I ever made. It can be hard at the beginning but gets so much easier. Life is definitely better without it🙂
You are an inspiration Bren!
Love your personality and videos! Thanks for making such awesome, laid back videos. ☺️👏👏
Let’s go baby! Big Bren with another vid! Love these day off chilling vids man keep them coming!
The portable bathroom coffee cup made me laugh.
I want you all to laugh so good! 😉
Love love love the walks in nature and the supermarket shopping, I'm in NZ so different products here.
Hi there fellow kiwi. 🙂
I love the turtle in the hat u are hilarious in this video by far my favorite video
Congratulations on your sobriety. You are an inspiration. Love your channel.
My kind of day! Nice to see that you take R&R days for yourself.
I like the idea of being “free” like you. (Of course, there are challenges)
CONGRATULATIONS on your 10 THOUSAND Subscribers!🎉🎉❤❤
I love this video. Very well done . It encapsulates your day to rest. That’s very important. God rested on the seventh day! Love the content . Thanks Aaron!
❤
Dude, your subs are going Sky high. You deserve it. Keep trucking.
Love the sock puppet intro!!! Laughed my ass off.😂❤
Thanks for sharing your life with us. It’s almost like having a best friend.
@21:57 lmaooo love your sense of humor! 😂
You are funny! I love the positive energy!
A teaspoon of Peanut Butter and a few walnuts are great additions to oatmeal, or even a squirt of pancake syrup.
Love your channel, very pure and chill!
song sounds like "Less People: What will you do?" Nice.
Woodstock makes excellent dried fruit-worth the money! It's best to try to find organic raisin.
Love chillin with you and the turtles.
Just found your channel love your content ; humor and honesty. I hope our numbers soar. You deserve it 😊
Thank you so much!
Funny user name are you a grandma? 😂
Yes I am. 🤣
He's so cute. Your mini me 💙💙 that's the most expensive gift you can ever give to your kiddo... Your total one one time together, just being there. I love your setup!! Your pretty darn creative and I bet your son has the best of times with you. Stay safe and keep up with these videos 📸!!!
I like your videos when you incorporate what and how you cook your food
Have never had an alcohol problem but my Dad did. We hated him as kids but now I understand and have compassion for him. He never stopped drinking but lived until nearly 90.
Love your content and your outlook, what I light you are!! Looking forward to your future adventures and congrats on your sobriety!!
(I think you did get taken in the raisin dept tho 😬 and it gets pricey if you’re going organic too! Look for store brand wherever you’re shopping if you can.. I’ve actually never seen raisins with _added_ sugar come to think of it since they’re so naturally sweet. It’s “craisins” and other dried fruits typically that I find you have to watch out for 👀)
Your spirit is incredible. I see you and I appreciate you for that.
You are amazing! Such a hard worker! Your fasting is great & so good for you. I IF also! Congrats on your sobriety..such an achievement! Keep up the good work!
You are such a ray of positive energy .....love your channel.....keep living life for you and your son ❤
Just seeing this vid after sending you a package. I’m trying to catch up everyday with all past vids, I’m definitely preparing another package for you
thanks dude!
Your strength and perseverance make me want to follow suit in my own life. Thank you for sharing this so honestly.
Bro, this video came out really great!!! I really admire your positive and relaxed attitude. Subbed!!!!
Hey, thank you!! It was fun to make
Love your personality. Really enjoying your channel. ❤
I'd love to know what it is about your videos, but I find them so incredibly enjoyable and satisfying to watch. Maybe because I'm watching someone get things done and I've gotten lazy as i've gotten older?
Glad you like them!
😃👍 thnx for sharing your journey! May the algorithm bless you and your vids to viral ad revenue 🦋
I like your vlogs there are fun and intersing
Thank you!
I'm enjoying this video, Bren. Keep those Ninja Turtles coming. I like the NT fight scenes and hats off to you for being a great daddy.
I often feel vulnerable being myself on camera so it’s nice to hear that people enjoy me the way I am so thank you!
Being authentic to who YOU are is what's most important in YOUR life. Hey, you like what you like my friend. I'm a forever fan.
It’s good to have some downtime at least once a week.
Love your videos Bren . New subbie here from Toronto Canada . I love how optimistic and organized you are even within the limitations of your circumstances . Wishing you and the channel the very best . I’m confident it’ll grow steadily .
Looking forward to witnessing your growth and here to cheer you on ! Congratulations on the journey thus far .
Canada 🇨🇦 Whoo Hooo, always wanted to go there! 🤓 Welcome and thanks for subbing!
Your mother should be very proud I k ow I would be you are a walking Testimony because you have cine a long ways and you seem to be a great Father God bless you and your life😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Love this!!!! Bren you’re awesome!!!! Looks very cozy!
I got back into collecting Hot Wheels as an adult, Love Hot Wheels
Thanks for sharing Bren. Enjoying your videos.
Thank you, I’m glad to hear this!
My man. First off; long form videos of yours are THE best. Feels like we are really hanging out. Means a lot.
Secondly, I've got more to say. Ha. Ok, so loving the oats in the rice cooker vibes. I'm a big oats fan. I can't remember if I've said that before. 🤔. Anyway, I eat a mix of steel cut oats and rolled oats. The whole oat groat of the steel cut variety takes longer to digest and is overall healthier. That's why I add those into my mix. I also add a tablespoon of flax meal and hemp seeds as well. Really bulks up the fibre content.
Moving on! I am interested to know if you're a comic reader.. if so, I have some recommendations.
Anyhoo, hope the service and repairs on your Subie went well and she's feeling better soon. No one needs or deserves a sick Subie 😞. We literally had our girl (Subie Summer Sparkles) serviced about 2 weeks ago. She's purring!
LOVE LOVE LOVE the content, brotato chip (I got a laugh at your last reply). Keep it up. Stay healthy, safe and enjoying your wonderful relationship with your son and you family.
Huge congrats on your 7 months. Massive. I drink very infrequently, but I feel like you've inspired me to dry it up and join your journey to have your back.
Much love. ❤❤❤🖖
Hi Nick! Thank you. My longform videos are very free but I have a few shorter videos coming that will be a lot more direct on topic. I’m still testing the algorithm.
I was wondering what the difference was between rolled oats and steel oats, I must try those out. Yes I do read comics but the only comic series I’m reading right now is the IDW series/ninja turtles.
Subaru is running like a dream now. I always set money aside for my car because it is my home and business.
Sobriety will always be my secret weapon! I will never push it on anyone but I would recommend it to anyone who is interested or curious!
@@brenpgrace Hey man, steel cut oats are the whole oat seed effectively just cut in half by a steel blade. Rolled oats are pressed flat. Steel cut oats typically keep you fuller longer and I think have a bit more fibre. You'll have to google some steel cut oat brands in the US. I'm from Australia, so what we have might be a bit different. Our steel cut oats are in the health food section and not with all the other oats. It's actually a bit annoying tbh!
Ha! I knew it, man. A tmnt comic fan. Love it.
Well, I'm now just over a month sober. And I've had the chance to drink but haven't. Inspiration, man. Inspiration.
Keep it real. Talk soon.
All the best and look forward to the next one.
Nick
Good luck on your sobriety! 🙏 Keep up the good work! 👍🏼😌
Love your content man . Keep on keeping on my friend
Enjoyed the video!!!
I’m new here brother and I really enjoy you’re content! Keep ‘em coming💪🏼
I love your hoodie too!
I do intermittent fasting too. It really does help keep my glucose levels better bc I have a horrific sweet tooth that I am working on getting more under control.
28:43 banana great add some walnuts and cinnamon if you like extra delicious with some more good stuff from the walnuts. 👍
Loving all your content, watching from New Zealand ❤❤❤
Thanks for your great videos!
Hi Bren, new subscriber from New Zealand. You are mote productive living in your car, then myself who lives in a one bedroom townhouse. After dashing, i try my best to head along to my zumba classes, but get a bit lazy.
Perhaps for clean up sake on the oatmeal you might be better off putting the honey into the bowl you eat out of rather than the rice cooker pot. I doubt if it would have made any difference on the tasty ness of the meal.
Omg!! The walking dead!!! Yeahhhh!!!! Love it!! And loving the content!!! Yes always nice to upload taking pointers from you!! Killer content you have Bren!! And my oh my are you growing loving it!!! Yaay!! So happy for you!! and proud 🥲 😊
Thanks TR! 😊
@@brenpgrace of course anytime you’re Awesome!! My friend!! Woohoo!!
The Y can be super expensive nowadays. I've had good luck finding hotels that let you use their pool. Some of them offer memberships just for the pool and hot tub and/or gym.
Bren I LOVE your humor 😂
Glad!
I am a 52yr old disabled woman and I do not do delivery driving lol I have seen a few of your videos and have not subscribed to be honestly you're just a little too quirky for me. That's not a bad thing I have a feeling looking at you is kind of an insight into looking at my adult grandson!
Anywho I know NOTHING about your analytics but I'm willing to bet that the video you cooked in your rice cooker or videos that show you "living" in your car have more views than those just showing deliveries.
I am converting a cargo trailer into a living space and I cook a LOT in my rice cooker!
I cook a chicken breast in it (2 cups water ~ without the lid) to shred and make into pulled BBQ chicken sandwiches, quesadillas AMAZING!! i cook sausage in it. Remove while I cook the pasta (aldente) then add back the sausage and pasta and add sauce. I leave the leftovers in the rice pan and it's less mess and easy to reheat for your next meal. BTW GENIUS absolute GENIUS the way you stored the left over butter stick etc in the lunchbox type container ... again GENIUS!!! since I am disabled and obviously a cargo trailer is much larger than just a car I have an apartment sized fridge and a solar system dedicated just to the fridge. I can in no way do frequent grocery trips.... (help I've fallen and can't get up is not a good feeling but MY reality) The rice cooker in MY opinion is a very under utilized device for those living nomadic type lifestyles. Best wishes to you and your son!
Appreciate you watching, all the best with the cargo trailer conversion!
Oh wow your son be getting those nets😊
Bro! I like you and your content. You're pretty funny.
You're LIVING in your car! I hope that one day that changes for you.
That's unhealthy my brutha.
I'm hoping your situation improves soon.
What if I told you that I am way healthier now living in my car than I was when I was living in an apartment. 😉 You just never know. Thanks for watching!
I love your videos
Great video!!
Glad you had a day to yourself. I sure cherish those days.
Good shit man...
I use coffee (with powdered creamer) as the liquid for the oats. I love the taste of coffee.
New subscriber I'm binging your videos 🎉😊
Great Beat Boxing Bren 😂
Thanks Bruce!
Fasting is an interesting subject have you watched any of Michael Mosley programs or you can get his books from library, not all about fasting but does some interesting programs about nutrition
🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
I absolutely loved this video. So, many, positive vibes. I've never seen anyone add salt to oatmeal, though. I was so confused over that. Haha. Like the oatmeal thick, BUT not too thick.
Yes, to be honest I kind of screwed that oatmeal up 🤣 I’m much better at it now
My mum always added a little salt to oatmeal , we call it porridge in the UK.
13:49 his wheels must have slipped on that parking space 🤣🤣🤣
That is my favorite goodmorning u with that thing on ur hand lmao😅
Oh jeez 🤦♂️ glad you enjoyed! 😂
✌️
That’s a good purchase for the raisins. It’s always better to spend a Lilttle bit more on good food
Stay clean dude!
Good job on the video!
Our government should be ashamed of how citizens are fairing in the so called richest country in the world.
If you hate people living in their cars, working gig jobs, then you hate capitalism. I lived this same life after Covid for two years and believe me this guy makes it look easy. It’s lonely, and can be humiliating. Half the workers in the US are living lay check to paycheck. This isn’t a government issue, it’s the richest men in America hoarding all the wealth. No reason this guy shouldn’t have a one bedroom home to go to at the end of the day
Well, you got investment groups buying all the homes and apartments and raising the rent every year by hundreds of dollars...and nobody's really protesting against this ... and no one running for President seems to give a damn... everybody gets pissed off when minimum wage goes up, but it will never catch up with these rising rents and home prices. America has stopped investing in Americans, a long time ago.
So called is right we are the biggest debtor nation
@@Pluralofvinylisvinylsi think there are things Congress can pass that would make our misery way more tolerable within the capitalistic framework we have, but it is true that capitalism needs to be left to the dustbin of history forever.
@@Pluralofvinylisvinylsthe reason those people are able to hoard so much wealth is because they use the government to do so(which is the opposite of capitalism)
I’m enjoying your videos your pretty funny and entertaining..
I love your banter around your Ninja Turtles 😊
I use my rice cooker for oatmeal. I 4:30 find myself washing my oats. They have lot of dust. I swam in hs for La Salle Academy. My community here in Florida has a nice pool.
Omgosh! That's so awesome playing Chess ♟️ with your son!! I didn't know that was an option but I forgot it's 2024 I'm old school lol. I can do that with my grandsons too😎
Keep grinding
My dad used to say if you add honey to hot or warm stuff, it just becomes sugar. To keep the nutritional value you need to add it to cold/lukewarm stuff. Oh and if you like cinnamon, add some cinnamon mm mm mm 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼 (also balances any sugar). Dates would be good too if you are out of raisins. 😋 Also, why use an extra cup to eat? Why not eat from the cooker’s own cup?
need to be careful and not scratch cooker’s pot - would have to only use plastic cutlery if you were going to eat out of it - am a mini crockpot user so am speaking from experience 🇨🇦🙏
@@ej3016 yes, bamboo or wooden cutlery would be sustainable, no?
Temperature in no way changes the chemical composition of honey. It is a natural sugar. Whether frozen or boiling.
Dude have you thought of working full time at walmart, you could sleep in parking lot, head in and make lots more cash plus get medical, that would be the start of turning your life around plus as you know autos are mechanical and that wears out, so easier to land a better car. Plus it would bring more into the budget to take care and take your son places, to raise a child is expensive for you and his mom.
Aldi's for sure is way cheaper than any that I know of for most of their food if it is in your area?
Thank you! They are scarce around this area at least from what I know
Do a video about window covers, you could also use cardboard with black tape on one side, does the same, remember do it on the cheap...all replaceable.
Cardboard holds moisture, which creates mold and would fail within about a week of taking them off and putting them on. Because Reflectix is malleable, it lasts quite a bit longer. It wouldn’t make sense to have to spend a few hours making new window covers every week when that time could be spent more productively.
I don’t mean to criticize your idea, but for anyone living in a vehicle it’s particularly important to avoid moisture buildup.
You are totally in my pocket right now:)
just let me out for some air every once in a while, will ya?
Yes being able to swim and shower 🚿 is cool think I’m getting bored with the planet fitness as well
Thanks for sharing 💜👍🏽
You are welcome!
Dig your videos and what you do bro!

Australia!! So cool; thanks!
YEAH IN AN APARTMENT AT 1700 DOLLARS FOR A STUPID 1 BEDROOM
