If you come to America and all you see is NY and LA, you haven't seen America.
exactly...you've seen tourist traps lol
@@jryan9547 30 years driving for a living. I've seen damn near everything, lol.
Or you have seen only the worst parts of our country. I warned my Irish friend against Disney land in the summer. They ended up staying in the hotel 80 percent of the time due to the heat they are in no way prepared for. What a shame they missed the much nicer parts of our land.
Yeah, I'm really tired of Europeans only wanting to see NYC, California, Texas, and Vegas.
If you actually see New York you have, but not if you only see New York City.
To the redhead who said Americans don't understand sarcasm, "Bless her heart" 😏
👏😂love it!😉🤗
Yes, she's precious!
😂😂😂😂😂😂
bless her peapickin little heart
That's perfect.
I’m American, lived all 68 years of my life here and have never met anyone who thinks that Europe is a country. 😂
Every Grade Three American knows the proper answer to this question in the USA. Why would the Brits think otherwise?
I have met people who think Africa is a country.
@@tomorrowhowever7488 How old were they? Might explain it.
@@tomorrowhowever7488 I remember in middle school there was a girl who once referred to Africa as a country. No one let her live that down for months. I'm sure she never made that mistake again.
That said, while I have not known anyone else to think as such, I'm sure there are people out there who just don't know.
Agreed. Some seem to think Africa is a country, but I’ve never seen anyone say Europe is a country.
I find it funny how the older gentleman mentioned how the Americans took the land from the native people and how we relied heavily on slavery. I guess he forgot that the British were among the first to settle and displace the native people and the British were the ones that introduced us to the slave trade. He also seemed to forget that Great Britain had a huge impact on India, South Africa, and many other countries.
👍 dittos!
90-95% of Native Americans were killed between the years 1491-1691 well before the USA was even a thing, so he cant rly put that on the US either
What you said is true, but you do realize that it was Americans and not the British who continued to perpetuate and uphold slavery for hundreds of years then after slavery it was Jim Crow and segregation. This is why it’s important to teach all of American history in our public schools, but a lot of people don’t want that truth taught because they don’t want to feel bad about themselves 🙄.
British humor is fantastic. I think of movies and TV shows. Monty Python, Hugh Laurie, Stephen Fry, Black Adder, Fawlty Towers. Isn't that British humor?
We are not as sarcastic to strangers. We are very ironic, but not nasty, unless we are with our close friends that know each other well and then it's for fun.
I have had sharp toothed sarcasm from a Brit and it comes across as condescension and mean spirited because I've never met them.
Some Brits will call that irony when in fact it's often vile sarcasm. We aren't stupid, mean spirited sarcasm cannot be hidden behind, " irony". They're bullshitting themselves!.
And Brits will be really sarcastically mean to one another and about the Monarchy. I find that shockingly vile towards one another is hard to listen to.
I understand your desire to see NYC, I was like that too. I wanted to see the NYC in all the movies. It's a great place!
Hey Lewis,
On the animal welfare/food safety side of things, I’m a professor at a university and focus on animal science. There are pretty strict laws and regulations on how we treat animals and what can be done to them. Everything is regulated by the government (USDA and FDA). Plastic in food is not a thing unless there’s an issue at a food processing facility, and then it is usually caught quickly and resolved. Overall, the US has one of the safest and most efficient food production systems in the world.
That’s a fair point. Microplastics are a global issue, not just an ‘American’ concern. How to limit the issue of microplastics is definitely going to be a major focus in food safety going forward.
Biodegradable products have a lot to do with micro plastics being found inside humans.
Lewis, you’re the most “American” Brit I’ve ever come across anywhere.
Dude, I’ve told lewis the same thing, he is our American bro in spirit!
Guess what Britain, if you are using plastic to package your food, you're eatiing plastic too.
Everyone is eating plastic. Microplastics are already everywhere on this planet.
Also, American food is not plastic. That's bigoted bullshit.
@@pinkonesie you can guarantee any non-american who rags on American food has never been to America, because NO ONE goes to America and leaves with a bad impression of the food
@@pinkonesieAnd while there are a lot of people who are ignorant about food and its production, there are more who understand it and know going to the source -- including small farms, coops, etc -- are a better option than corporate farms.
And people are aware of the Need to break apart these huge corporate farms and ranches, and return them to smaller family and co-op farms and ranches.
Unfortunately, American public schools are in a serious downward spiral and fail students in every way on every level
LOL, What do you think about when you think about America? "I think about slavery." Oh, that's rich coming from a citizen of a country that colonized half the world for almost 400 years, and who weren't exactly known for their kind treatment of natives. I love the tongue-in-cheek remark I heard recently that "England is responsible for creating more 'Independence Days' than any other country in the world."
True, but to be fair Britain, France, and the USA were the big 3 that took the lead in stamping out slavery around the globe. It's a sad commentary on the MSM that some Brits think of racism when they think of the USA when it is so exceedingly rare in reality.
It's also sad that L3WG thinks that racism is the underlying cause of the ongoing riots in the UK. The vast majority of the rioters know that the murderer was UK born, just as they know his parents arrived just before he was born. That's not what the riots are actually about, but that's what the BBC would very much like you to believe.
@@g-man8980They were the slave trade
New Zealand is still a territory😂our founding fathers all got dunk and said F it we ain’t going 😂
@JDoors If you ask this man.What he thinks about Britain.That's How he would probably answer. He is an NPC
It kills me how Europeans have no recollection of their historical role in slavery. Slavery came to these shores when we were a colony. It existed over 300 years that way, while it only existed in the United States from 1776 to 1865. I'm just saying.
And practically no slavery in the North for decades before that.
and who owned those slave ships? It was Great Britain. Which also had to enact laws to outlaw slavery.
The guy at 3.02 talking about how America took the country from native people, should have a chat with some people from India, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, and a bunch of other former British colonies. I'd also remind him that it was called British America when a lot of that "taking land from native people" was happening.
Except you really can't "take" something from people who don't own it.
Don't forget Ireland.
65 countries have gained independence from Britain. The UK's largest export might be Independence Day celebrations.
It's like the pot calling the kettle black. It was the English colonist who were violent. Areas that were colonized by the French were not like this at all.
@@lennybuttz2162 Who was this English colonist to whom you refer? And why do you say "were" instead of was when referring to one person?
"It was the English colonist who were violent."
The older British guy in the grey shirt putting down America for colonizing is hilarious. Wow, that's bold.
Right?
America was founded by people fighting the colonizers the British. Lol
Didn't care the old guys political takes. If you're gonna criticize american politics come with some facts not character attacks.
@@Helloitsme328His body language is screaming! 🤭 He’s so obviously uncomfortable 😅
The irony.....lmao!!
We don’t think Europe is a country
England had a history with slavery as well!!
Woke white people love to point their fingers to others to export their guilt. The rest of us just have lives to live.
@Lancer4323 don't tell them. It always amazes me as to how wrong and strong some people are.
Britain brought them to the U.S lol
And it was called British America when a lot of that "taking land from the natives" stuff was going on.
Lancer, you are mistaken. The British brought people from Africa in their ships. The US did not exist before that. The British are slave traders.
I am 🇺🇸.
I listened to this entire video. Only a few got it right about the USA. ♡
As an American, I never thought Europe was a country.
Most of us know that.
Me either lol. Oddly though, I have heard a number of people refer to the whole of Africa as being the country of Africa. I guess they though all the countries were states 🤷♀️😄
@@OliviaFinley-p7wto be honest I have seen videos of a few Americans referring to Africa as a country. I just shack my head🙂 (as someone was so kind and not sarcastic at all, to point out that I spelt shack. It was spelling shake and it autocorrect).
@@OliviaFinley-p7w Y'know I'd never heard Americans be so terrible at geography until I traveled around the world and visited a bunch of different countries and found
- Nobody knows that Malaysia exists in the first place, but they know Singapore, Thailand, and Indonesia (but not where they are or how they relate to each other)
- Nobody knows what "The Netherlands" is but have heard of "Holland" despite not knowing where or what that is
- Africa is a country
- London is a country
- Every country outside the USA is AT LEAST USA sized and the idea of traversing countries in a matter of hours is mind boggling
- One person asked me if Asia was the biggest country
So apparently my belief that fellow Americans know anything about geography is founded purely on the basis that I haven't talked to my fellow Americans about geography prior to traveling
Have yet to hear someone think that Europe is a country though. Everyone knows that it's a continent full of countries.
(This is redneck Idaho though, so that probably factors somewhat)
I was taught it was a continent but who knows because I was also taught the brits had slaves. Can't expect much from people who think NYC and LA are the top places here.
DUDE!! You've never met an American! There's gotta be thousands and thousands of Americans living in the UK who would LOVE to meet you!
We have to think of a way to bring Lewis to the States.
I find it weird when people think of slavery and the Native Americans when they think of the US. Not because that stuff didn’t happen, but because other countries were doing it to. Other countries colonized America, other countries had slaves, etc. So why is it just our sin?
America used a brutal form of slavery called CHATTEL SLAVERY. It's principals are what Hitler used to torture Jew8sh ppl and still wasn't as brutal. The last slave being found in 1941 in USA becs of peonage systems setup to replace the freed slaves. Where the police would make up reasons to arrest black ppl and charge them fines they couldn't pay then a plantation would pay the fee and the person would be a slave again. As soon as the fee would have been paid, new charges would "magically" appear. This is how the "prison" system til the day is disproportionate.
because people around the world, including the US, are fools lol Its tough being a human with brain functionality as its becoming more and more rare.
Thank you,glad to see common sense is still out there
yes, and African tribes were selling slaves, and Native Indian tribes were slaughtering other tribes.
The Irish were slaves to Britain forever and the Scots , not all of thier slave were black.
Older dude in gray: Taking a country from Native peoples. 😐 Had the Brits won that war, you’d be the “guilty party”. Talk about gullabilty. 😏
Fr the older guys political takes were junk. Sure personally taking someone's land unjustly is wrong but what are you going to enforce 200 years later, and what about the native Americans who took land from each other, who's land is it then, not to mention the Brits doing it their entire history.
@@olli-lfewhen it started here in America that was literally the Brits lol
They are not taught about the revolution in school, that's what Lewis told us.
@@olli-lfeMany, many Americans have no idea that the Native Americans were busy fighting each other constantly!
It was pretty funny to hear someone who is clearly brainwashed by propaganda call others gullible.
Many Americans grew up watching Monty Python, Faulty Towers, and The Young Ones.
I'm going to be honest, I don't know any of those
I've seen Monty Pythin and The Holy Grail like 30x
The Young Ones! Heck, that whole list including Black Adder! 😊
@@OddSwiftGooseits fantastic
Nah, you've gotta be a baby boomer or early gen x, which is fine.
Never have I ever met a person who actually believed Europe was a single country. And there are many people that do care about the environment and protectong animal rights and wellfare, etc. Its hard to make blanket statements. I think our faults are more televised than other countries because we are so looked to for setting a standard. It easier to see our faults as people and as a nation in general thus amplifying and generalizing.
Yep. Exactly
There is a lot of the younger generation that does not know. The education system in America is a disaster.
@@drew9738 Disaster is a huge understatement. We're in trouble if We don't change things quickly
I'd bet the vast majority of us Americans watching you get and love British culture, humor, etc
I agree, I used to watch Monty Pythons Flying Circus all the time, and I love that movie search for the Holy Grail, it is one of my favorite movies, I also have a British friend who moved here from the UK. In general most Americans like the British, because they support us and they are our ally.
Yep! Also, just because someone doesn’t laugh, doesn’t mean they don’t get the joke. They just don’t find it funny. But there are a variety of types of humor that appeal to different people.
@@steves2241and Mr bean
I live and work in NYC and have worked alongside more than a few Brits. All of them were great people to talk and hang around with.
I'm one of those who loves British humor. I also really appreciate the fact that Brits don't feel the need to put music throughout an entire tv show.
Guy in grey “How can 70% of Republicans support Trump?” Basically implying they are stupid and have been fooled but then turns around and talks about how much is going on and the innovation.
I’ve been to four premier league matches in various cities around the UK. I was shocked at the racism! Holy shite! Yeah, racism is real in the UK.
Also, redhead woman is a little dramatic with the food stuff. We have looser food restrictions and it does make me angry some of the crud they put in drinks and stuff. Stuff that’s illegal in the EU aren’t here (some). Feels like the US is ok poisoning their own people. I’ve never had plastic in meat. You can buy farm to table, organic here…and get cheap, questionable stuff…it’s sad it has everything to do with money. Healthy food shouldn’t be only accessible to people with more disposable income.
@@AspenD1💯
Andrew Klavan lived in the UK for 7? years and says it's the most racist country in the world.
Hearing British people talk about racism and slavery is hilarious. The Americans that established the two tier system were British. The definition of "white" was being anglo saxson decent. Many of the founding fathers warned about letting in swarthy Germans and southern Europeans.
😂🤣
British people are often not taught in school about the colonization of North America or the American revolution in schools so it makes sense.
I remember L3WG (I wish he'd give us his name) say that they never really teach much American history in their schools.
@@Michelle1963 his first name is Lewis(not sure if that is how you spell it tho)
@@Michelle1963 it's Lewis 😀
lol exactly. The institution of slavery in America took place while America was under BRITISH RULE. America's history of slavery is literally Britain's history of slavery
It's not that Americans think Europe is a country, but Europe is the only fair way to compare our country.
Yes due to size. China is also a fair comparison but when you're trying to get people to understand how big a country is comparing it to a continent that is of similar size is more effective.
@@redram6080 even economic output, the eu is comparable to usa
@@Some_who_call_me_Tiim True that too
Exactly!
@@redram6080Americas gdp is $27.36 trillion. Europes as a whole is $24.22 trill. The country with the largest gdp in all of Europe is Germany at
Best thing to do as a Britt is to stay out of American politics with Americans.
Absolutely 💯 agree !
America is not LA and NYC. It is the "fly-over states" between NYC and LA. Los Angeles and New York City are anomalies in America. America exists outside of the massive metropolitan cities. If you ever visit America, pick some city in the middle of the continent.
I’m Canadian but I’ve travelled through many states and Americans are really friendly.
Never had an issue in 26 states
Thank you ! ♥🤍💙
Thank you! You are amazing!
Have you been to Michigan? People on the west side of the state are usually nicer overall but pretty much everyone is nice
@@chilldon26 I live outside of Toronto so Michigan is my direct neighbour
It’s beautiful and the people I’ve met are great
As a Black American, to be recognized as a human being is to not say that another group of people lives don’t matter. It’s too easy people.
yeah that guy who said that was like "I'm not racist in any way shape or form" yes you are, buddy. smh
This.
Like you said mate, it was a response to the police killing an unarmed black lad for no reason. Then another, and another. When police and authority do not value all lives at the same level, it is necessary to bring attention to the problem. No one ever said other lives don't matter. All that was said is, hey we matter too.
@@mowen016In addition, those protest were more than policing in America. And if you are American, you would definitely know exactly what I mean.
@Bea-Dubya I am American and I said authority as well to highlight the systemic racism from redlining to voter suppression but wasn't trying to write an entire expose about the failings of the United States system.
Racism here isn’t near as prevalent as what is thought…and American IS STILL and WILL ALWAYS be Land of the free and Home of the BRAVE! ☺️🇺🇸🇺🇸 (And I’ve always “gotten you”, my guy! 👍🏼) Love from Texas! 😊
The USA won't be as free as it used to be if Trump wins.
I love how the older guy said 2nd Amendment!!
@@candiswilson7873And the other one talked about partying with "Trumpers" in a bar and didn't have to buy a single drink. haha
Some of the Brits interviewed seem to be highly misinformed about America and Americans. Can't blame them, the media is to blame. I have to remember that this video is from several years ago.
To be fair, I think they did better than we did in the other video for the most part 😂
Well, when Americans are being misinformed, the English blame us. So I'd blame them.
Their mindset is "it must be true we saw in a movie"
We definitely have chemicals in our food, there’s no denying that. But any food that is packaged in plastic has microplastics. That’s not only the US.
Loving your country and wanting to keep it safe doesn't make you racist
Well said. I get so tired of hearing how racism America is. I think people read a book about slavery and think it’s going on today.
People in the UK lost their national identity decades ago.
No, but the way a country goes about keeping itself safe can absolutely be, and in both these countries there are blatant racists using that trope for cover.
@@burnout_2017 And, even though you agreed with my statement, you will continue to characterize everyone who's against illegal immigration as a racist.
@@TheMaxmurphy1973 stop making assumptions, you cant win an argument making assumptions. I know they scare you but facts work better.
Awww, you love our accent Lewis?!?? We love yours too!😂
We do have animal protection laws.
If the USA has laws then why did the Flintstones have a bird record player, a Mammoth shower, and mastodon vacuum and an octopus dishwasher?
@@tikihutdweller5944because it was a cartoon

@@tinanichols203 You have absolutely no sense of humor, do you?
I think she has an overblown concept of what's in our food.
I'm an older American and I have always liked British humor. Especially Benny Hill and Little Britain..
I liked the young ones
@@AlwaysWatching666 Insane show!!!!!1
Keeping up appearances & Monty Python.
I'm old enough to remember when the only major stations were ABC, CBS & NBC. PBS was about the only one that really played British movies and shows. It was when cable tv came out that some stations showed a few British ones.
@@KS-ip5xnI loved Keeping up Appearances.
I feel like you've gotten a touch of American and you Lew, you usually are pretty positive and jovial. That is what people gravitate to.
there is NO plastic in the meat...we DO have animal protection laws everywhere. Sometimes the Brits they interviewed don't really know what they are talking about.
Especially the guy talking about how "goolible" we are. He believes every lie the Dems ever told.

😂...👏boom! That's good American humor right there!!😜
Yea it’s not like England ever took land from other people by force Ireland India etc etc etc
Technically, England was the one who brought slavery here. After the US gained independence from England, slavery was abolished within 75 years. America as a nation was hardly a slave nation at all.... but the south, lol!
Nuh uh. Only Americans ever took anyone’s land or had slaves
@@DogSpeak we had slavery in the north mainly house slaves
@@StevenEatsAlone are you drinking every countries boundaries were drawn in wars. And many countries had slavery long before America was discovered
@@DogSpeak Are you ok, What?, Chattel Slavery in the USA lasted over 400 years and what wasn't taught was far worse. Not all the Black Slaves came from just Africa ,but they came from Europe, the Islands (Jamaica,Haiti, etc) and the Indigenous here in North America.
6:19 sarcasm is used here in America a lot as well it's the delivery that's a little different, British people say it in such a way that it's hard to tell if they're being sarcastic or not, where is Americans are just as sarcastic but generally try to make sure the other person knows that they're being sarcastic.
Yep, it seems there's something satisfying with an "in your face" comeback sometimes!
Very true.
Some of us Americans did grow up watching “Britcoms” via our PBS (public Broadcasting System). As a teen in GA, USA I lived for Thursday nights when my dad and I would watch ‘Keeping up Appearances’ and ‘Are You Being Served?’
"Good Neighbors" "To the Manor Born"," Dr..Who", "The Avengers". "Monty Python" of course, That's how we learned about Britain.
Dr Who,Red Dwarf
I used to watch those shows.
And "Waiting For God." "Are You Being Served" was also great. And only once I caught a FANTASTIC British show called "Billy Liar."
I grew up in SC, and I watched the same shows on PBS on Saturday night when I was in college. It's sad that most of those actors are gone now.
I don't quite get the thought that Americans doesn't get British humor. One of my favorite tv shows is Absolutely Fabulous and two of my favorite comedy movies are Monty Python's Quest for the Holy Grail (Run away! Run away!) And Shaun of the Dead. Your channel is also one of my favorite's to watch. You are so much fun to watch. I can always count of a smile and a good laugh from you. Thank you for your content. So happy that you decided to be a content creator.
You’re good man.
I love British sarcasm! Saturday nights the old Britcoms like Faulty Towers, Are You Being Served?, and Keeping Up Appearances being my most favorite.
I grew up watching all these shows my favorite is Are You Being Served
I LOOOVE Daisy!!! She and Hyacinth’s poor husband!!😂😂
Are You Being Served is my favorite though!! Oh my gosh I can’t believe how GREAT that show is!! We’ve watched both shows for over 20 years and LOOOOVE THEM!! My Hubby LOOOVES Monty Python we both grew up on it. I honestly enjoy it more after a glass or two of wine!!!🍷🍷 We get British humor and LOVE IT and we LOVE the UK!!! but I’m sure there are some Americans that prefer things like the movie Dumb and Dumber which we found boring and stupid but that’s ok because I think humor is like music 🎶 some people prefer different kinds and we say live and let live. Enjoy what you enjoy! But people in the US definitely GET sarcasm Hollywood just often plays to the lowest common denominator and we get very forgettable shows and movies… I live for BritBox and Acorn! I prefer British shows because you get a hella lot more normal people and content… like Foyle’s War, Vera, Doc Martin, Prime Suspect, Sherlock (with Cumberbatch) , Shetland, Lewis, Happy Valley, Poirot, Miss Marple, Call the Midwife, Father Brown,, Are you Being Served, The Fall, Inspector Morse,
Keeping Up Appearances, Prime Suspect, Broadchurch
Land Girls
, Silent Witness, Midsommer Murder,s Rosemary and Thyme, etc….
We love all kinds of music, humor and people. We have always known that stereotypes are rarely accurate and we think people are basically good and bad all over the world. As for obesity sorry but recent studies show that it’s a problem for a LARGE percentage of the world … and they obviously haven’t tasted our food!!! We’ve had food from all over the world and there’s a reason some people in the UK are a bit smaller than us… Sandwich Paste and Beans on Toast ?? Yuck!🤮😉
We also LOVE to travel all over the world and we definitely LOVE the UK🇬🇧, France, Italy, Switzerland, Austria, Spain, Australia, New Zealand, Mexico Belgium, Greece , Germany
Another great video and WE DEFINITELY GET YOUR SARCASM AND HUMOR OR WE WOULDNT LOVE WATCHING YOU!! Bless your heart for asking!😉
That gut in the gray talked about how were are not free but he harps how some people back someone he doesn't care for, that's because we're free to back who we want.
That guy needs to a nice socialist country like, Venezuela. I’m sure he will happier
As was once said, England and America are two countries separated only by a common language.
It occurs to me that the blonde's comment about us thinking Europe is a country comes from some stupid (or sarcastic) post she's seen on Instagram or TikTok and actually believes it's true! Could that be it?
And what's this nonsense about plastic IN our food? Where did that come from? I seem to have missed that announcement.
I'm in the u.s.a and what you hear and see on the news and see on the movies does not portray what America really is! We are in the land of the free and home of the brave but right now fighting to keep it this way.
Racism is not that horrible, people ain't running around with their guns shooting everyone they cross paths with, animals are procted by law, and there is no plastic in our food.
As Americans we stand up for what we believe in. We will keep our rights and freedoms that we're all granted. Not with violence of course!
Only with violence if we are pushed that far, the original intent of the 2nd ammendment was just for that purpose.
Um...Idk what part of the U.S. you're in, but I guess you don't pay attention to the reality that isn't shown to Americans openly. Look on youtube, & you'll find some reality. You must be very blessed to be protected from it. Not only does microplastic get into a lot of our food, but also bits of metal, rodents, insects, & human body parts...not to mention the neverending recalls on food that they keep finding deadly diseases in. Animals aren't protected by law. Abusers usually don't get felonies. Just misdemeanors. They deserve jail time, but only get some fine, & have to put in volunteer hours somewhere. Slaughterhouses constantly break laws of humanely killing. Instead they torture them, causing them great pain, injuries, & slow brutal suffering deaths. If we were so free, we wouldn't have to keep constantly fighting for it. And, how are you keeping your rights & freedoms nonviolent? I love that idea. But there's too many out there that are using violence. Racism is absolutely horrible! If it still exists, it's horrible. And actually, there's a lot of people running around with guns shooting others. Again, you must be able to afford living in a better place, because where I am, people get shot right outside my apt bldg almost every week. Because if you become disabled, old, & don't have anyone to help & take care of you, & were never rich, you have to suffer living in a ghetto around criminals until you're somehow able to get out. I've been trapped here for 9 years, & haven't found a way out yet. Don't speak for all of the U.S. because it's obvious you have been sheltered from many truths.
@@kimmy6639I always thought the second amendment was placed to be able to hunt for food and for protecting ourselves.
@@Michelle1963 No. The 2nd Amendment basically is to form a militia and overthrow the government. The creators were WILD thinkers!
@@Lee-AnnWilliams-w3lalso wrong. The founders were strictly against a standing national army (seeing as they had just fought one) and saw the second as securing the ability for every American themselves to defend the country. Much as Rome did in its earlier centuries. Rome didn’t have a standing army until much later in its history. Every Roman man was expected to fight for Rome’s defense. The founders were heavily influenced by the Roman Empire and sought to improve upon their policies and standards in the hopes of avoiding those mistakes which brought about its fall. The founders were weary of a standing army since they saw first hand how a tyrannical state could use such power against its own citizens.
I love your videos. You have a great personality,and actually research information before you decide if you believe something. I lived in the UK for 10 months back in late 2004 to early 2005. I loved the nature,how clean it was, the old castles and churches. I also met some wonderful people. I will continue to watch your videos and now living back in the United States am thankful for traveling and learning as much as I can.
Most Americans can't afford to travel overseas.
We also don't have enough vacation days to travel out of the US.
Most of us haven't even seen all of the US!!!
I’d bet less than 1% of Americans have even been in all 50 states, including just flying over them on a plane. I’m 30 and I’ve only ever stepped foot in maybe 15/50 and that includes driving from Seattle Washington to Tampa florida
@@Pikawarps its note even close to 1%....most people can't afford to travel around freely.
I’ve been to 37 and I’m 44.
And some of us who can go anywhere we like with plenty of time to do so don't want to go anywhere else. Growing up we traveled a month out of every year. I have been to 44 states. We have so much to see and do here in any climate we choose. Now that our kids are adults we go to the NW coast every year for a couple of weeks plus our other travels. The only foreign countries we have been to are Mexico and Canada which we were not impressed with.
@@Pikawarps Set foot, not "stepped foot".
Ryan Gosling is Canadian, but he adopted a faux New York accent when he was younger because he thought it sounded cooler and would help him land roles. He has since said that he's been faking the accent for so long that it's now his real accent.
By 1920 the British empire ruled over 25% of the earths total land area.
I’m sure that affected a few people
Guy in grey shirt is clueless regarding people supporting Trump and why
That's what left leaning media will tell them just like it's done here. Our founding fathers were criminals according to The British.
"The" American accent? Movie accent? We have many regional accents.
The Brits and the EU have “food safety” rules that are a combination of protectionism and Green hysteria about food not produced by “organic farming”. Organic farming is about as scientific as homeopathy.
Nah the fruit and vegetables there are def better
@@F28ajThere's no noticeable difference in the taste of most organic products. But, I would think it's far better not to spray pesticides on food.
However, I believe things are better in the agro, husbandry, and botanical sciences that is changing food sources for the better.
Watched a few videos on it when I was obsessed with the topic and I was really cheered about what was happening on independent farms and ranches across America

As someone who doesn't go on almost any social media or watch the news, I appreciate you talking about the riots and educating us. I, for one, had no idea. I hope communication, understanding, and anything else destroyed during the riots can be restored. I protested at, then witnessed riots occur in Richmond, VA for BLM in 2020 and I'm proud to stand on the right side of history and humanity
Best British show is Keeping up with Appearances! I agree with others. Brits have it wrong about Americans
Would reccommend people look up the global food security index, where it shows America has the third highest quality and safety for food rankings in the world only behind Canada and Denmark
When I think of England, I think of Mrs. Bucket’s neighbor avoiding her.
Oh I love Keeping Up Appearances. Such a funny show. Mrs. Bucquet. Haha
Coffee at 11 Elizabeeeeth!!
@@Epcotfans54 Bucket.
“That’s Bouquet!” 😂
@@TheCJTok Yeah she wanted it to sound high class. That’s what made it so funny.
Dude, on British humor, the significant other and I absolutely love classic British sitcom comedies. Like Are You Being Served, Keeping Up Appearances, Red Dwarf, and The IT Crowd. And we're in boring old Ohio.
OMG I forgot Red Dwarf😂
Brits who love an American accent? It's the other way around!
To me, the British accent always sounds more intellectual than American accents (please don't feel offended, I'm not trying to insult my own people, it's just how I hear it...I know there are a lot of smart cookies here in our country).
I subscribed to your channel when you were just shy of 60k subscibers. You have grown so much as a person watching these videos. It is so nice to see that you see it as well.
As an American, I remember watching the BBC channel on TV as a kid in the 70's & 80's. I got introduced to Dr. Who, The Benny Hill Show, Fawlty Towers and others I can't remember. It was hard to know what they were talking about because they used British slang. I loved Benny Hill's silliness and sexual innuendo, but his slang and accent baffled me. I love the Monty Python movies.
How did you even get BBC in the 70's? I don't think cable stations came around until the 80's. Antenna non digital format was only like 6 or so channels to watch, & none of it was international. Just clips of international news. Though one of our local channels did have Benny Hill.
I watched the shows on one of our PBS channels.
My American parents named me after a Dr. Who character😂
Most people in America really don’t care about UK politics. It’s weird how much they “think” they know about American politics- and how much they seem to care.
Exactly not once have I thought about uk politics lol
The older guy in grey is actually wrong about southerners being racist. At least nowadays, he's wrong. Statically, the most densely populated area in the US for black people is the US south.
Now, historically? Yeah, that was true. Lots of racism went on in the US south until the Civil Rights Act of 1963 was passed. It eventually changed the culture in the south. Especially with the youth.
By the way, if you want a hilarious southern video, check out "My first black cookout" by Zach Rushing.
It feels like he's going to say something racist, but it goes a whole different direction! Again, it's hilarious!
The most racist people in the U.S. are the blacks. The least are the whites. Second most is asians. OR hispanics, but I think it was asians.
The most prejudiced people I've ever met are usually from the south...still. It's just not always so up in your face. There's still a lot of sundown towns existing today.
@@deborahhardy357 Liar.
I love the guy with the positive and negative views truly understands the current situation in America. ❤
2nd Amendment is the Constitutional right to own and bear arms. Guns.
Back in the day when slavery began in the USA, the slave trade was run by the Dutch and the USA was actually a British colony. AAAhahaha
Lmaooo facts😂 and that emoji
Best not to invite political comments my man.
Americans are usually pretty cordial but when shit hits the fan you definitely want one to back you up.
Love your videos! Love to encourage many British people to visit Mt Rushmore and the Great Plains!
For the record we love your accents too! Especially little British kids! SOO cute. So maybe its mutual appreciation.
Don't worry Lewis, we don't take you seriously...your sarcasm that is!
The old guy in the gray sweatshirt doesn’t seem to know much about America.
Yea 70% of replicans are gullible, bless their hearts.
It's hard to describe what Americans are like. For example I live in Ohio and my personality is usually going to be a lot different than someone from like Alabama or California. Every state has their own culture and how they deal with different issues.
I watch tons of British shows and laugh my head off - We get the sarcasm. Yes, we have a crazy political world here right now but Americans are really friendly. You can’t beat the beauty of this country.
The English aren’t exactly in a good position to comment on our f’d up politics either.
You're funny as heck bro, especially when you thought that cubby hole
in that house tour the other day that you misunderstood the man saying
you can put a baby in there with a baby gate, and you said something
like a baby prison or something, that made me crack up!! 🤣🧐🤠
OFFS Black lives matter doesn't mean only black lives matter, it means black lives matter TOO.
BLM thinks that the only black lives that matter are the ones killed by the police. They don't seem to care about the blacks that are killed by blacks.
No.
BLM is a commie scam.
@@therealimnotjiminy yes
BLM was a corrupt and violent organization that caused riots and destruction of black neighborhoods . They did not help black people or anyone else.
America is still land of the free and home of the brave. 100% 🇺🇲
Salt and Pepper guy definitely deserves his flowers. It's easy and lovely keeping the rose tinted glasses on about the states but I respect those that go deeper than just food and entertainment. I did the same with England, Japan and South Korea. Eating up the good and ignoring the bad is a disservice to those trying to bring awareness to uncomfortable topics.
I'm in South Florida and there absolutely is obvious racism. Those that say there isn't any probably aren't even aware of sundown towns and Florida's past and current history with them.
There are places all over the world where if you were different you better be out of town by sundown. Sometimes by race, sometimes by culture
Liar.
California has a bunch of small towns known to hold Klan rallies.
@@everypitchcounts4875😂😂😂 what?! Dumbest comment I’ve seen in a long while…
Fremont Ohio is by Sandusky (Lake Erie area), Milan is also close. Thomas Edison born there in Milan 1847. Sarcasm is what I like, but people are very tense sometimes and take things way off track.
Chloroformed chicken? What the heck is she talking about.
You didn’t know most of the chicken in the US is treated with chlorinated bleach?
@@twatts1523 bleach, yes. Chloroform is not bleach though. Unless I heard her wrong…
@@KitCatBrat73 I’m pretty sure she was referring to chlorinated chicken. It’s banned in the UK.
@@twatts1523 all our tap water is chlorinated as well. Not saying it's ideal just not as bad as people make it out to be and you can get chicken with out it.
@@cglasford1 Yes, and it’s not actually the chlorine to which Brits object. It’s the unsanitary and cruel conditions in which the chickens are raised, which requires washing chicken in chlorine. So their laws require farmers to use more humane and healthy practices, making chlorination unnecessary.
My favorite TV programs are on ACORN and BRITBOX, which has BBC and ITV shows. I love the cozy mysteries and the British period dramas. They also show programs from Canada, Wales, Ireland, New Zealand, and France.thry have one called Somerdahal Murders. It's a Danish or Swedish show, excellent.
Every Brit I have ever had a conversation with. they always felt like they had to apologize for their sarcasm.
Anymore too many people are easily offended here
On the other hand there's a fine line between British sarcasm and coming across as an asshole. 😉😁
When I was in Australia, my friend and I met with a couple of girls there. We were having so much fun. I loved listening to their accents, and the slang they were using. One of the girls with a huge smile said, "I just love talking to you, and hearing you talk, I love your accent, and how you sound just like a movie star".
Our size is rather large, considering I'm closer to you on the east coast than I am to Alaska in my own country. So, that gives scale to the size a bit better.
"Rather large"? LOL We're the second biggest country in the world after Russia.
Yes, but for someone whos never been here.. it's not easy to the relate that size.
Fun video - When I was 7, I might have thought Europe was a country. Yes, Black Lies Matter started in response to a couple of high profile cop killings of detainees.
we're way more alike than we are different
My daughters went to New York City for their 6th grade class trip. They were absolutely amazed with the lights in Times Square and the fast-paced sites and sounds. They were even more excited to get back to North Carolina with stars in the sky and the sounds of tree frogs and crickets. 😂
We get you Louis.
🤣🤣😂😂 I definitely get your sarcasm! I just think a lot of British don't understand that Americans are from every single nation in the world. An American is every single ethnic group in the world. That's the problem with "What is an "American?"
“Land of the free, home of the brave, but not so much nowadays” seriously! With what’s been going on in England over the past month, for the first time ever in my life I’ve found myself tremendously grateful to be an American! The cops don’t kick my door in over a social media post! wtf? England is on a slippery slope and she’s slipping faster than shit. It’s actually quite terrifying. Growing up we are taught to look at what’s going on in England and then brace yourself, it’ll be here soon
and how may doors have been kicked in because they got the wrong address, lately?

Im pretty sure Americans are well versed in sarcasm. Yeah, there's some people who take everything seriously, but I'm pretty sure that's everywhere, not just Americans.
I think Europe wants to be a "country", else why the EU?
One flag, one currency, one set of "laws" for all, they wanted one army, no borders between countries there. Yup, one country is how they wanted it to be.
That's exactly the point and it's to compete with the U.S. - which they've failed at.
EU dreams of becoming the United States of Europe
6:10 - Generally, Americans will pick up on sarcasm if you alter your tone of voice or grin, or otherwise do something to indicate you're using sarcasm. It's just that some British like to use sarcasm while talking completely normally. That's when Americans can miss it.
I was going to say that about you guys. Politics is nuts in both places.
I never miss Prime Ministers Question Time on TV. it’s a real hoot! 🤣
Americans also have strong sarcastic humor. There is a reason Americans LOVE British comedy and media.
