@@Ben_Brainard Yeah, same. I asked her where mine was a while back but she wasn't sure either.... Pretty sure I know which cupboard it's in though. The one with stacks and stacks of old paperwork for this and that that could one day maybe be relevant in some way.
As a Kentuckian I'm proud you didn't do any KFC jokes. Also for some reason I was expecting the other big cities to be mentioned like Lexington, Bowling Green, and Owensboro Idk why
I’m from Kentucky and the “We can’t be doing that now” really made me laugh, Daddy Beshear comes on the tv every night and talks about what to do and not do according to the CDC, but he’s great we love him.
I spent this part of the pandemic in Kentucky and I can guarantee that this is 10,000% accurate representation of what it was like. Thank God for Governor Andy and Miss Virginia ❤ (The Tupac Shakur thing was real, too. There was a video. And a tee-shirt.)
Marvelous Mrs. Dixon Hell, I’m in Seattle and I understood the duct tape X thing lol. People think the X will absorb shock and keep windows from breaking. It obviously doesn’t work, and actually makes them more dangerous (since they’re more likely to break in large pieces that could kill someone, as opposed to tiny glass shards that can only do a limited amount of damage). It was even mentioned in the Miami Herald: www.miamiherald.com/news/weather/hurricane/article171813657.html
I live in Ocala. There is nothing good about this town. All the horse farms are in smaller towns outside of Ocala, and Ocala just has statues of horses. Take it back, Kentucky. Just take the whole damn state.
Ok, but you guys have them some of the best competitions on the show circuit. Which covers a wide variety of disciplines. Kentucky honestly doesn't even have that much only the Kentucky Horse Park, which Rolex/Land Rover Kentucky 3-day event and Pony finals, couple of the museums, and of course the race tracks. Florida and Kentucky are both the horse capital, or at least for English riding.
Surely it’s not like the horse farms outside of Lexington? On I-64 outside of Lexington, all you see is horse farms. There is no way that somewhere in Florida beats it.
Unfortunately I don't have the extra funds to be one myself but I absolutely love seeing the patreon list growing longer every video. I remember when they all could fit on a splash screen at the end.
same, I have been watching these since the second one on tik tok and there was no list, then there were a few names and now its like the end credits at a movie. I love it
I love how Kentucky evolved from a dapper-looking man with a framed picture of the Governor to a country boy in a T-shirt and baseball hat with a bottle of beer.
As someone that lives in Louisville, our people could be taking this a lot more seriously, but a lot of us are happy with Andy. He’s good stuff. I’m honestly happily surprised at how well we’re holding up.
As a student at Niceville high school, I agree that we are the pinnacle representation of Florida giving up. A small town of military families and meth heads.
As someone from Louisville, this is so true. Just speak it like emphasis doesn’t exist. We slur our words together all the time, and you’ve gotta be crazy to think we’d be any different for our biggest city. “Y’all e’r thenk ‘bout tha’ big ci’y *clears throat, and speaks in a British accent* Louis-ville? *unclears throat* Ye, meh needer.”
Ok, THIS is what I was looking for in the "Mispronouncing city names" video, and the explanation of "say it like your mouth is full of mashed potatoes" line is both hilarious AND true. ...God, I'm gonna miss Andy Beshear. Governors rarely get re-elected here.
honestly I'm from Kentucky and your accent of the region is great. we have an accent but not way overbearing for the most part but definitely there I love it
In case anyone is curious, the bourbon distilleries made quite a lot of hand sanitizer. So much that the University of Kentucky is still using it. And it smells like alcohol when you use it.
I corrected him before he mispronounced it. We really do get annoyed by that. Also KY's silver alerts are called 'Golden Alerts' because they're in their golden years.
As a native Kentuckian, it always surprises me how many people struggle to say "Louisville" correctly lol. 10/10 for KY and Gov. Andy - we do love him!!! :- ]
to be *fair*, most people are going to either pronounce it like the French name its derived from, or the anglicized version of that name theyd be familiar with. the "loo-uh-vul" pronunciation (as someone born and raised in louisville) is a weird AF choice and i think derives entirely from locals, and kentucky in general, insisting on being the contrarian in any situation; same with the local pronunciation of versailles
Outsiders would struggle to pronounce the name correctly if it’s spelled entirely different from how it’s said. Top it all off with “which of these letters are silent/accented”. And it could be expected to have people pronounce things differently even if they’re from the same state but not the city in question. Then as someone else said if the term is usually of a different language than the intended spoken language then it could have even more ways of saying it. I lived in a place where there were different dialects for speaking the same language depending on where you were, also the formal and informal tense of the words, well as how the sentences would be worded based on other situational things (talking to an elder or superior or family). I don’t think we had any issues with calling places by the locally accepted pronunciations but it wouldn’t be a far stretch for me to believe some people might have said it differently. Tl;dr :o language is weird
... wow. I have never heard that bit from another state. Like, I am from Idaho and hearing other people confuse Iowa and Idaho. We get confused with Iowa, Ohio, Utah and Nevada
I'm not even from Kentucky, but my parents are, and even I will magically appear out of the woodwork to correct you if you mispronounce Louisville. Especially if you say it like _that!_ At least people who say "Louey-ville" have the excuse that most of the country says it that way. But "Louis-ville?" Nahhhh nahhhh. No excuse for that.
@Bethany Brashears I have, and I'm from Mississippi. Lexington and Ocala are both great. Kentucky has the Kentucky Horse Park, and all the museums. And Florida has Palm Beach International Equestrian Center and the Ocala Jockey Club. It's better than Mississippi, the only recognizable place we have is the Harrison county Equestrian center, which has one of the best Grand Prix fields in the country!
D3adlyShade_Dad it took me a month to find out I don't qualify for unemployment or the PUA and don't qualify for the stimulus check while I've been out of work now for almost 2 months with no income and haven't been able to get a new job.

You've never seen people put duct or masking tape in a "X" formation on home windows during a hurricane warning?
Marvelous Mrs. Dixon Hell, I’m in Seattle and I understood the duct tape X thing lol. People think the X will absorb shock and keep windows from breaking. It obviously doesn’t work, and actually makes them more dangerous (since they’re more likely to break in large pieces that could kill someone, as opposed to tiny glass shards that can only do a limited amount of damage).
It was even mentioned in the Miami Herald: www.miamiherald.com/news/weather/hurricane/article171813657.html
