Really cool museum & interesting life. He influenced so much of our everyday lives even today. Cemeteries are so peaceful. Love listening to Lamont tell history👍
Thank you for taking us into places that we never get to visit and see in person. As a traveler myself you show me places that I’ve missed on the road. I love history and hearing stories from the past.
Or places we never would have thought about going to..
@@DanielAtkinsFirewood I agree!
Same here.
The strange thing for me is I always thought Betty crocker was a real person and I thought Duncan Hines was just a brand name. I learned later on but before this video. That I had it completely backwards.
I believe Betty Crocker was a real person 🤷♀️
@cathywhite9415 no she wasn't she was created by marjorie child husted
Never knew he was a real person. I actually used his cake mixes for my diy wedding cakes.
You get an A+ on originality. You really come up with great stories about regular people that made a difference. Thank you Lamont.
I appreciate your CLEAN language, interesting presentations, and your tender heart (filling bird feeders for the forgotten)
I never thought Duncan Hines was a real person. It's mega cool that he gave restaurant and hotel reviews. The dude was ahead of his time. Beautiful cemetery in Kentucky.
Amazing how simple the man’s grave is. It really puts things in perspective
This is pretty cool! And I'm glad you went there, too! I learned something, thank you! 😊
Very cool Lamont.. You know you have a lot of followers that truly appreciate the work you do in putting together these very informative videos for your numerous channels and haven't gotten too big for your britches, will live stream, have a beer or several. Be a regular person.
Hi Lamont, I never thought or knew Duncan Hines was a real person until now, what a fascinating story. Safe travels...take care 🥰
Thank you as always for a great history lesson!!! So, now after watching about Mr. Hines it made me hungry & gotta go fix a chocolate cake with fluffy white icing🤗
Your voice is such that it calms me to listen to it. I have watched you for a long time. Gotten mad at you for comments you made, laughed with you and at you, shed a tear or two over some of the stories you have shared, and one thing is consistent, you put out gd content and like I said before I can't help but like you. Thanks for always being the voice of reason for me that keeps me sane.
Perfectly stated! 👌
@@lorigagnon1385 TY 😁
Hi what a pretty picture you've on your profile! Just decided to stop by and say Hi!! I hope my compliment is appreciated

Hello Lamont.my name is Aaron 🇿🇦from South Africa.ive never been in the States and I'm one of your subscribers. I really enjoy your stories and I'm learning something from your country. Keep up the good job.really love your stuff.one of the stories I've enjoyed was the one for Jack Daniels.I was inspired. I'll always watch your stories. Thanks a lot.Aaron 🇿🇦
I would love to visit the museum to see Duncan Hines articles and stuff… Hopefully one day, thanks Lamont for telling us about his life. I buy the cake mix all the time 🙏🏽❤️🙌🏽
You've got great content. You deserve the subs man
Great video Lamont. Duncan Hines I knew he was real but didn't know much more than that. Thank you for sharing.
Great tour of the Duncan Hines museum, thank you Lamont. The kitchen area reminded me of how my mother's looked when us kids were really young. The fridge and stove, and the old mixer on the counter brought back memories. Our treat was the DH Devil's Food cake mix and my mother made her own icing with powdered sugar and chocolate that came in cubes. This was a once a week thing we always looked forward to. The old mixer on the counter is like one I still have that was given to me. From around the 1940's. It still works. Thanks again, Lamont, you are much appreciated.
🤗🥰... Just luv this channel. Wishing everybody a good day and positivity
Dear, Sweet, Always Humble, Lamont ❤️...
I don't know why you would be surprised by so many people following you to any other channel that you produce! I mean, what's not to love about a good looking, well-spoken, honest, intelligent, but still humble all-American gentleman who travels far and wide to not only indulge his own passions - but who also shares them with us? We always get a history lesson, and usually about something or someone we've likely never heard of before, always related to us in your own inimitable and very personable style. And it certainly does not hurt that you're handsome and have an appreciation for beautiful ink as well! So, I really don't know why you would be so surprised at such an early success for your new channel, but I'm already enjoying it very much - and I know I'm far from alone in that : )
Take care, be safe, and be blessed.
With much love, from Janell W., Australia ❤️ XX
🇦🇺❤️🇺🇸
Well said Lamont rocks
Humble lmfao. He has 700.000 in bank. Why not help those in need instead of keeping it all for.himself. that would show humility. Lol google it's public knowledge
Thanks for the great video and history story!
What a amazing man! Lamont Thank-you for sharing this man's life with us! By the way looking good today!!
I always enjoy your content Lamar, keep up the great work!
This was a great video Lamont! When I was growing up, I remember all those commercials for Duncan Hines cake mix. I recall the commercials selling point was how moist the cakes are! Of course as a kid going to the grocery store with mom, I would be like, look mom, theirs the Duncan Hines!! Please buy some lol. I do remember how moist the cakes were!! I just thought it was a name of a cake mix. Thanks for enlightening us on this history!!
I had always assumed Duncan Hines was a real person but never really thought to find out, even when the internet came along. If you notice the never used his likeness on the box. I have a question for anyone who knows. What would the US Dollar in Duncan Hines day be worth compared to the value it has today if you take away inflation?
Congrats on the 100k subs! Great video. I had no idea he was real. Thank you for sharing!
Yes, I love these videos!!! Keep them coming!
Mr Duncan would talk about restaurants and other places in his books so that people could find the reviews
I never knew the story of Duncan Hines. Thank you Lamont!
Wow 😯
Good cake mix
Thank you Lamont for sharing this with us. I learned a lot here I never knew that the name was a person and I was only familiar with the cake mixes never knew about the rest. Thanks again for the awesome history lesson. Stay safe peace out.✌️
I watch this every episode if you want to call it that I watch this every time you put one on even go back and watch some of the older ones it really helps me I suffer from depression and a lot of times I'm in the house on kind of that but believe it or not I appreciate your videos and I appreciate you very much thank you for making amazing videos safe traveling to you thank you very much again
Truly fascinating, Lamont! I did not know he was a real person. Great video- thanks!
I watch them all! And hit the thumbs up as soon as I click the video! I want more keep ‘em coming!! Thanks Lamont.
Lamont that was so enlightening, I loved it! The museum was great!!👍🏻 Did they have any children? Do you know if his heirs inherited anything?
Hi what a pretty picture you've on your profile! Just decided to stop by and say Hi!! I hope my compliment is appreciated
Wow, Lamont, I really enjoyed this video on Duncan Hines! I remember my Mom buying some of his box cake mixes when I was a kid and she did think their quality was a cut above. Had heard he would take notes and make observations as he traveled and knew his name got attached to quality products but little else, so you filled out that information in very nicely and the museum was fun to tour,I'm glad you stopped there. Nothing like good old American ingenuity! He saw an unmet need and filled it, with great success,too. Someone really spent time on those two stones, they were white as snow.May Duncan and his family rest in peace. As a little kid in the fifties, I remember all of this stuff developing, the wide, open roads being built,the ads on TV, the cars with the fancy grills and big fins,etc.
I can see young Lamont holding up a Duncan Hines cake mix at the grocery store.
“Mommy can we get this?” He says with a bright smile as he is holding up that box high with both hands.
His mother looks down at her child in deep thought before a punch comes out and striking the poor kid in the stomach. He drops the cake mix on the floor while his mom grabs him by the arm and spirits him away.
(Camera zooms in on the cake mix laying on the linoleum grocery store floor as the narrator speaks.)
“Lamont never got his cake mix that day or any other time. He ate kool-aid stained stale bread for birthday.”
Why would you think 🤔 people wouldn’t like you?? You are an old soul storyteller. That’s aces in my book! I remember years ago, we talked on the phone. It was when you first started out, you were at Toxic Hell aka Taco Bell! Where else? We had a very enjoyable conversation! Stay blessed and safe travels my friend!
Yeah I knew about this man cause my grandmother R.I.P used to cook alot with his brand and Betty crocker I'm an 70's baby but cakes my grandmother made was awesome
Huh smdh
I love your channels Lamont. Love listening to you tell these stories. You have a way of telling them that makes it so interesting.
Really grateful for your video’s. They learn me a lot about things I would never know nothing about 👊👍🇬🇧🇺🇸

This was a great video Lamont! I never knew Duncan Hines was a real person till now! Thanks for sharing 👍 😊. Loved the little museum tour! Stay safe Lamont 🙏 ❤
This was a fun video to watch. Yes, I had no idea he was an actual person. Love his strawberry cake🍓🍰
I've used the cake mix many times and never knew it was an actual person's name or the history behind the name. Thanks Lamont!
That was really nice. Would like to go to that museum and others. Been in Ripley's Believe or not in Branson, Mo. Great place to visit. The town has lots to do and see. Traveling is the best way to see things. Take your time and enjoy what is out there, for everyone to see. Thank you for your informative comments about people and places and final resting destinations.
This is interesting to stuff to me. Being from the UK, we don't have Duncan Hines goods. So it's interesting to see things that we over here don't get. So as usual Lamont, good work that man.
Awesome video Lamont! I always thought Duncan Hines were 2 separate people like Duncan and Hines.😂 Very cool to know! God bless this man and God bless chocolate cake!
May Mr. and Mrs. Hines rest in peace.Good commentary and content Lamont .
You visit such interesting places. Thanks for sharing with us. 😀
This is amazing!!! I didn't know Duncan Hines was a real person!!!
I love both your channels the way you tell the stories is outstanding
I never knew he was a real man. Great video. Be careful and hydrated Lamont
Hi! I grew up on Duncan Hines cakes. My mom most always bought boxed cakes. I looked on ebay for his travel books and they don't have them. I will see if I can find something. His grave was very humble and it's so sweet that someone cares for it so faithfully. Thanks Lamont.
Thank you Lamont I'm subscribed to all three of your Channels
I always find your videos so informative
Amazing work, thank you so much. I've learned a lot from you!
Love your videos, Lamont! I like how they are not well known. You were actually the first you-tube channel I came to and I think I have watched all your videos. I try to watch them as soon as you put them up. Thank you!! You are the reason I'm hooked on You Tube and no longer have cable and TV. Stay safe out there!
This is very fascinating. Great video!
Very cool video I like this style of video because I didn't know he was a real guy.
I love watching you and I always learn so much from you…. I love history and biography!!!! YOU ARE THE BEST
I really enjoyed this video. Please do more of these famous names that we don’t know much about. Thx LaMont!

I love the 1950s informal….😆
Friend: Aye Yo Dunk
Duncan: Was Good Man. Talk to me!
Congratulations on 100 sub
Back in the 1960s, we had a friend with a weak bladder. He knew every public rest room within 15 miles, which ones were busy, kept clean, easy to access, etc. We used to call him "The Duncan Hines of toilets". When he had to relieve himself at a rest room, we would say he was "going Duncan".
Thank you for the story, well done on the 100k +..
Thank you for the tour.
Great video Lamont !!!
I love this thank you Lamont.
