I am realizing that some might not understand what makes me tick and the theme of this channel . I made a promise to myself that as long as I'm doing daily vlogs I will make an effort to go outside and explore and attempt to either learn or see something I haven't seen before . It's a task I've stuck with for over 5 years . While I know they can't all be home runs and cater to each and every viewers needs I do my best to spread out the content to a wide variety of topics . History fascinates me and always has , even weird fast food history .
I think people are associating this channel with the AdamTheWoo channel and expecting you to go out and do the same type of things. One theme is "adventure" stuff the other is "daily life." The Daily Woo travel vlogs (which I enjoy immensely BTW) helps feed that confusion. Anyway, just keep on doing what you're doing. People will get it eventually.
TheDailyWoo the randomness and yet familiar routine of your vlogs is the main reason I enjoy watching. Some people will just never be happy, nor happy for others. Keep going!
So glad to see you're staying true to who you are. It's so sad when vloggers change their content trying to appease miserable, no life having losers. ;0)
TheDailyWoo ...if you want to plant roots in Hollywood, i say good..you were talking about finding your own home base for a good while...now you can go home and shcleeeep well..keep on keppin on dude
Hi everyone. I completely flipped my car over last night. First wreck in 38 years. Came away with just a gash on my wrist. Paramedics couldn't believe it. Everyone take a moment to appreciate life today
I've worked in a few chain-restaurants that were/are very similar to "Shenaniganz", and other than "the penis-showing game", everything you see in the movie actually does happen. I'm not even going to go into what I've personally seen. How most of these places haven't been shut down by now, is beyond me?
I miss the McDonalds toys from the 80s, I remember halloween chicken nuggets in costumes and hamburglar acting crazy. Now I'm going to watch McDonalds commercials from the 80s-90s now for hours, haha
Ray Kroc was a scumbag for what he did to the brothers, more power to him for being the kind of business man he was but it's really sad what he did to them.
When I was a kid a bought from a yard sale the McDonaldland characters play set. They were dolls the size of Barbie but with Mayor McCheese's head lol. I had the whole gang & it came with a big tree. LOL Ahhh memories :)
LOL! I laughed when you rang that button! In the 90's, my husband and I sold Happy Meal toys at collectible shows. Most of our inventory was purchased from a guy who owned several McD's. So, I once owned an Apple Pie Tree and sold it to one of the guys who authored a McD collector's book. He said he was going to put it in his museum. It would be awesome if this Mc Donald's dressed the place up with these vintage playground pieces, kind of like the Mc D's in Orlando. Thanks for sharing, Adam! :-)
Absolutely. When I worked there, the fries were made from potatoes we cut on site, and the patties - while still pre-packaged and pre-formed - were fresh, not frozen. The most terrifying machine in the store was the potato peeler. Picture a top-loading clothes drier, with the drum made out of a cheese grater...
Yes but there is no feasible way to transport thousands and thousands of unfrozen patties and fries to 14,000 restaurants and have them last long enough for them to sell them. Except for a few very small circumstances, nearly no restaurants (fast food or otherwise) serve food you would consider "fresh."
I had a McDonalds play set as a child with a train & all the characters. Sure wish my parents would have kept it. Love the classic McDonalds stuff, too bad you couldn't get a closer look.
Fun fact! Out in Northern PA, there's not much cell service. Lol. Where there's not any service, you can still find working pay phones out in the middle of nowhere.
Adam two questions for you as a master of knowledge of Mcdonalds 1. Have you seen The Founder? 2. Do you remember when Mcdonalds put the menu on the ground so when you order you have to not make eye contact?
Mike Blarney the answer is simple. So you dont diarespect the employee by asking them for a Big Mac with those eyes that scream desperation and sadness.
I loved that you got to meet Kevin Smith the other day! He is the main reason I wanted to become a filmmaker many years ago. I feel like I have begun to achieve that old dream in a different way with the videos I make now inspired by The Woo! Two main sources of inspiration in one video! The space time continuum can't handle it!!! Lol
He did something amazing. He figured out how to get the same quality and the same taste and the same experience in the food products across an entire country. That was revolutionary.
I grew up in that neighborhood. I was a teenager when that McD's was built. Me and my friends would hang out upstairs and stick the unwanted pickles from our burgers to the windows. Man that takes me back.
Hi Adam. keep up the great work, we love your daily vlogs. 😀 maybe head up to the Central Valley we have some exciting things in our area that might be fun to vlog.
My wife and I will follow you, whichever direction your heart desires. From the deepest part of our souls, thank you for all the wonderful content. We truly mean this. Love what you do.
I too enjoy the old McDonald's mascots. I grew up in the 70's and 80's and remember all of the commercials that came on while watching Saturday morning cartoons. Ronald McDonald and all of his friends... Ahh the good ole days.
I used to work at one of the worlds biggest McDonalds at the time in North Brunswick New Jersey back in 1975. It used to be a 1950's style super market that they converted into a McDonalds. It wasn't really wider but it ran deep it was a big floor and I should know I used to mop it. Also Ronald McDonald came to visit our store and I was one of his helpers making $2.25 a hour.
What a disappointment man :( I loved the playplace back in my day. The mayor mccheese you could climb into. The grimace that had bars to form his body and you shook back and forth. So many good memories! I just wish I knew how bad the food was for me. But the toys were so much better back then too. Great video bro! Haha Andy! Wow that was random seeing him.
This is close to where I work and I went thru that drive thru about a week or so. Been to this one on Lankershim tons but I don't think I ever went inside. Thanks for a different perspective Adam :-)>
Most of that stuff has been removed out of fear of liability lawsuits. Owner/Operators tend to hold on to that stuff, and usually sell it after retirement and or selling their franchise. Collectors are the ones that buy it. Owner/Operators also collect complete Happy Meal Toy Sets for the same reason.
One of my local McD's had the animatronic "Ronald Show" including all the characters in the form of stools for the kids to sit and watch. Sadly it was taken out when they remodeled the place 15 years ago.
I don't know who is giving you grief, but I started watching you last year and I watch every day because I TOO like history of all kinds. I love that you explore around this country and show us the popular stuff and the not so popular stuff. Even the stuff no one even knew about. I appreciate your vlogs and everything you do to make them entertaining. It's not easy doing this everyday. I applaud you and thank you for doing what you love and sharing it with all of us. PS -- WOW I cant believe that was Andy Milonakis.... and Yesterday's vlog with Kevin Smith MADE MY WEEK! I could die a happy woman if I ever got to spend even 2 minutes with Kevin Smith and Jason Mews.
I remember when a McDonalds hamburger was 15 cents, and the cheeseburger was 17 cents. And I remember the sign displayed "Over 500,000 sold," and then "700,000 sold," and the grand celebration when they hit a million. Seems like on that day, at least where I lived, they were celebrating by giving away free burgers and fries. 'Tis a real shame that they would take such memorabilia and stick it out on an outdoor balcony to rot. Those treasures can't be replaced.
Fast forward to 2023,. We had this scamdemic thing, then people decided working wasn't for them, eggs and lettuce quadrupled in price....Now a happy meal is 12 dollars.
I've only seen one other 2 story McDonald's in Louisville, KY. That second story, like the downtown library across the street is a favorite hangout for the homeless.
Damn, I would've loved to have seen those McDonaldland relics. Even in the 2000s, there were quite a few McDonald's locations that stayed with the 90s flair, like the Bill Elliott car in the PlayPlace. Those pieces you pointed out at 4:37 were monitors connected to a game console (either an N64 or GameCube) that would be in the PlayPlace.

Adam, no worries. As even within the greatest of tapestries.....there exist a few ragged threads.

OMG it's Andy Milonakis!!!!
young sace! haha he's like 50
Shmandy Shmila-Shmakis*
Dur dur
VeXis101 I thought Adam _had_ traveled back in a time machine and ran into his own Mini Me.
That totally looked like
Andy Milonakis
Hi everyone. I completely flipped my car over last night. First wreck in 38 years. Came away with just a gash on my wrist. Paramedics couldn't believe it. Everyone take a moment to appreciate life today
dcd715 wow glad your ok. Very true though appreciate life
dcd715 Glad your okay!
dcd715 wow..glad your ok..!!
Glad you're ok!
+dcd715 that's scary . Glad you made it ok
Remember Andy Milonokis from the Classic movie Waiting. That movie made me not want to eat out anymore for awhile.
Love that movie! Such a great coming of age.
I've worked in a few chain-restaurants that were/are very similar to "Shenaniganz", and other than "the penis-showing game", everything you see in the movie actually does happen.
I'm not even going to go into what I've personally seen. How most of these places haven't been shut down by now, is beyond me?
Mc Donalds will have to change their slogan: I'm toleratin' it.
I can tell that Filet O Fish was made by an expert, should give them a raise.
It was truly thrown together with such accuracy and pure professional nature. A raise I'd needed.
I miss the McDonalds toys from the 80s, I remember halloween chicken nuggets in costumes and hamburglar acting crazy. Now I'm going to watch McDonalds commercials from the 80s-90s now for hours, haha
KitschyTravels , oh yeah, also the happy meals sometimes would be in different shapes? I remember they released some in UFO saucer shapes.
+KitschyTravels the original Ronald commercials are creepy and amazing
TheDailyWoo isnt ronald willard scott? So creepy
KitschyTravels OMG I remember those as well!
From someone on the other side of the counter I hated those happy meals. :)
Ray Kroc was a scumbag for what he did to the brothers, more power to him for being the kind of business man he was but it's really sad what he did to them.
Ray is only one of a long list of fuck faces of America. But I still love this place and have only a little bit of hope for mankind. But not very much
That is the strangest looking McDonald's building I have ever seen lol
Helicopter flies overhead...
Adam: "That's riiigghhtt!!!"
Never gets old! 😊
I passed out 20 seconds in. These help me get to sleep
"Let's be honest... If I had a time machine, I'd probably do other things." Haha
Love your vlogs Adam, I learn something new every day. This is a great adventure you're taking us on, thanks a bunch. :)
When I was a kid a bought from a yard sale the McDonaldland characters play set. They were dolls the size of Barbie but with Mayor McCheese's head lol. I had the whole gang & it came with a big tree. LOL Ahhh memories :)
So glad I discovered your channel. Love your videos! :)
that fillet o fish looked a little under the weather lol
Great video. Thanks for posting this. Have a nice day.
LOL! I laughed when you rang that button! In the 90's, my husband and I sold Happy Meal toys at collectible shows. Most of our inventory was purchased from a guy who owned several McD's.

😂😂😂 2:33 Ronald Mcdonalds face!😱 😂😂 Cracked me up! Lol!
Remember when McDonalds fresh cooked their food and it tasted good?
Absolutely. When I worked there, the fries were made from potatoes we cut on site, and the patties - while still pre-packaged and pre-formed - were fresh, not frozen. The most terrifying machine in the store was the potato peeler. Picture a top-loading clothes drier, with the drum made out of a cheese grater...
Wow you go way back. Closest I come to that is we found and threw away the old refillable tubes used for special sauce.
Yes but there is no feasible way to transport thousands and thousands of unfrozen patties and fries to 14,000 restaurants and have them last long enough for them to sell them. Except for a few very small circumstances, nearly no restaurants (fast food or otherwise) serve food you would consider "fresh."

Mike Blarney he doesn't like McDonalds.
Rumor has it that Disney will be buying the troubled McDonalds and will rename it "MickDonald's"
If your ever around there again, break out the drone and unearth the secrets of the McD universe!
Morning, Sir Woo! :) Stay positive! :D
That sign say 1955? Same year Disneyland opened. Good times
Quick though❗😄 I wonder if you can fly you drone up where those Mcdonalds relics are and see them!😮😮
Good Morning Adam.. Hot and sunny everyday, The weatherman has a easy job in CA...
If I remember right, that top floor used to have kind of a garden theme. Trellises, a few plants, etc.
Thanks Adam got my WOO FX for the day.😀😀😀
Love it as always. I learn new things and hope u continue doing what u do on ur videos. thanks have a blessed day
Too bad you didnt have the drone! You'll have to go back when you get it because now I'm curious!!
Absolutely classic, you have my belly hurting so so funny. Amazing keep it up mate 👍 🇬🇧
I loved that you got to meet Kevin Smith the other day! He is the main reason I wanted to become a filmmaker many years ago. I feel like I have begun to achieve that old dream in a different way with the videos I make now inspired by The Woo! Two main sources of inspiration in one video! The space time continuum can't handle it!!! Lol
+NolaDeej it was great to meet him . Very nice guy
TheDailyWoo he definitely seems like it! So cool!!
I love the things and people you run into now that you're living in LA. That was a pretty cool Bank at the end too.
Ray Kroc was just the person who exploited the idea...he didn't invent it!
That's very true...an originator in his own way.
He really was a Kroc wasn't he
He did something amazing. He figured out how to get the same quality and the same taste and the same experience in the food products across an entire country. That was revolutionary.
vanscoyoc That was Harry, not Ray, that created the way to keep the franchise in line and quality consistent.
Richard and Maurice McDonald were the founders.
This was one of my very favourite of your vlogs, Adam. The McDonalds of Disappointment was not disappointing at all. You make everything fun.
Good video, I am kind of surprised you didn't talk about or highligh the "paintings" on the building behind your new mug.
Another awesome video. I can tell you are from the East coast by the way you look :).
I grew up in that neighborhood. I was a teenager when that McD's was built. Me and my friends would hang out upstairs and stick the unwanted pickles from our burgers to the windows. Man that takes me back.
Lots of curtains for the shops.
Things and surroundings change to bind the customer.
Ah, if you only had *The Majestic* with you. You could have floated that amazing piece of technology over that balcony. Nice video!
Seeing your fish just had me thinking that I’ve never had a centered fish fillet sando. They always come messed up and shifted
Omg that's awesome you ran into Andy! I GOT BEES ON MY HEAD, BUT DON'T CALL ME A BEEHEAD!
Best McDonalds ever by Knott's Berry Farm. Trains!
+C. Biggs that is a good one !
TheDailyWoo Another cool one is at Barstow Station in Barstow, CA on the way to Vegas off the I-15.
Oh there I am walking by super fast in the beginning hahahaha !!! Now I want mcdonalds
I've been to that McDonald's, several times. I use to live, right by there. I love you're videos!
Hi Adam. keep up the great work, we love your daily vlogs. 😀 maybe head up to the Central Valley we have some exciting things in our area that might be fun to vlog.
McDonalds best decades were from the 1970s-1989. Who remembers the cool toys in the happy meals from the 80s.
I ate at the Mickey D's in Santa Clarita today, on my way to work. I sat at the table with the white top, with all of the coloured lights!
My wife and I will follow you, whichever direction your heart desires. From the deepest part of our souls, thank you for all the wonderful content. We truly mean this. Love what you do.
Hey Adam, at frank and sons collectibles in the city of industry I believe they have a whole bunch of the old mcdonalds playground equipment.
+Donny Tucker I need to get back over there .
Mcdonalds needs to bring back some things. Like their mascots, unique decor items and detailed happy meal boxes.
how many pairs of navy blue dickies work pants and saucony shadow shoes do you own? asking for a friend.
......everyday
I too enjoy the old McDonald's mascots. I grew up in the 70's and 80's and remember all of the commercials that came on while watching Saturday morning cartoons. Ronald McDonald and all of his friends... Ahh the good ole days.
You can easily see of how mcdonalds ripped off the Kroffts. the talking trees and hippie themes. just the type of things that made the Kroffts awesome
Two vloggers I watch. Running into each other by coincidence, didn't expect that! :)
Nostalgia. Thats your channel. I like it.
I am new to the woo. I aplaud your curiosity.keep up the good work.
Should have brought that drone to get a peak!
i always drive by this mcdonalds. a friend use to work there, that place is a craphole! that whole area is shady 😂😂😂
Brings back memories. Used to go there a lot back in the days. It has changed a bit.
Give you some trivia. The man who wrote what became "Auntie Mame", Patrick Dennis became the Kroc's butler. His way of continuing the good life.
Ummmm what's with all the haters in the comment section? Keep doing what you love, Adam. It's your channel. Keep being you.
I refuse to buy a new vehicle because if I did I would not allow myself to eat mcdonalds in it. true story
I believe those 3 screens with the logo on them formerly housed the GameCube games in McDonalds!
Good morning Adam have a wonderful adventure!!!!!!
I used to work at one of the worlds biggest McDonalds at the time in North Brunswick New Jersey back in 1975. It used to be a 1950's style super market that they converted into a McDonalds.

So many good memories! I just wish I knew how bad the food was for me. But the toys were so much better back then too. Great video bro! Haha Andy! Wow that was random seeing him.
McDonald's nostalgia is great. As a child I always found Grimace to be so menacing with his giant purple body..
Adam, why not fly your drone up to the balcony?
90% Vegan all of that part of LA is a no drone zone!
@@zosometalgod that is 100% true
Nice job. Very informative and interesting. Darn those Mickey Ds employees for not letting you see their stuff. 😎
That was the most work Andy had in years 😆. Great video Adam. The McDonald's in a mall near me was all McDonald land themed in the 80s.
This is close to where I work and I went thru that drive thru about a week or so. Been to this one on Lankershim tons but I don't think I ever went inside. Thanks for a different perspective Adam :-)>

Now I am getting friggin MC D adverts in TH-cam
Gets weirder because he said Columbo like 5 times I'm getting Columbo in my feed.
Such a sweet find. Keep it up😀
that was awesome!! you ran into andy!! so funny!!
Don't jump! Lego Man! You'll pop apart!
Then all of the residents and visitors could not put Lego Man back together again!
Thanks for sharing Adam...!
Hey Adam, that guy that jogged past you came out in the movie heavyweights and might ducks!!
hahah aaawww super sad pants mcdonald's!! i miss our old school 80s mcdonald playgrounds with the hamburger jailhouse and the fry guy seesaws
"Those beautiful.... pieces of cheese"
heh heh heh heh heh heh
+Kev Markis hahahaaa yep
One of my local McD's had the animatronic "Ronald Show" including all the characters in the form of stools for the kids to sit and watch. Sadly it was taken out when they remodeled the place 15 years ago.

Awww today would been a good day for the drone.
Hey Adam just thought I'd say I really enjoyed your video today! I love how you ran into Andy I used to watch his show on MTV.
Oh that would be so cool to do the tour blog! I love history of the city
I've only seen one other 2 story McDonald's in Louisville, KY. That second story, like the downtown library across the street is a favorite hangout for the homeless.
Great video Bro! But I never have and never will try a McDonald's Fish Sandwich.
*BIG MAC POWER!!!*
Damn, I would've loved to have seen those McDonaldland relics. Even in the 2000s, there were quite a few McDonald's locations that stayed with the 90s flair, like the Bill Elliott car in the PlayPlace. Those pieces you pointed out at 4:37 were monitors connected to a game console (either an N64 or GameCube) that would be in the PlayPlace.
Adam, You sir are hilarious
😂😂😂😂😂 Prob one of the most entertaining Vlogs on youtube🤗
That guy at 10:49....did he have a show or a TH-cam channel or something when he was a kid? I remember watching him years ago......!
Andy Milonakis!
I think you should do an entire vlog just about your top 10, 20.. of what you would do if you had a time machine!!! Haha!
Just from the title alone, I knew this would be good.
Good Morning Adam!! Hope ya have a great day!!!
I had an epic Sunday. Commando was on tv and predator was on as well right after it. Let off some steam Bennett.
