The way she said maquoketa nearly gave me an aneurism.

[@glennso47]

Maquoketa Iowa is a place I’m a bit familiar with since I was born and grew up in Carroll County Illinois which is just across the river from Jackson County Iowa . I do have a lot of trouble with spelling it though. 😢

[@mrbrooks9969]

Drop the "s" for Des Moines 😊

[@vilstef6988]

Mackokaita!?! A really hilarious mispronunciation.

[@crackerbarrel6965]

Reminds me of the billboard: “Welcome to Iowa. We hope you brought something to do”.

[@rfgiowa]

Pssst...when saying Des Moines, BOTH "s" are silent. 😉🤓

[@chrisruss9861]

From Australia I saw an electoral reference to Iowa. Its attractions and architecture are surprisingly beautiful and sometimes quirky though I imagine its cornfields would be a bore. What a little treasure state it is. It looks orderly and peaceful. .

[@keithnichols7926]

This soundtrack is a sample of what Artificial Intelligence may bring to narrations of all sorts. A brief phone call to the Iowa tourist bureau would have enabled all of the names to be pronounced correctly. At least, she didn't sound both esses in Des Moines.

[@debbie4315]

I did a rewind to see if I heard what I actually thought I heard. Street Joseph.

[@JaylenPotts-zs2qw]

Iowa seems like a great state.

[@poksnee]

You really butchered the word Maquoketa.

[@SarahGreen523]

It's AI. AI can't pronounce even the simplest words correctly, let alone Maquoketa.

[@suethomas5387]

Just an FYI, both s in Des Moines are silent.

[@vilstef6988]

Supreme Court of Iowa is not in the Capitol building. It's in a smaller building on the south side of the capital complex.

[@tammymatt9186]

I have some problems with that list. Im going in reverse order and starting with food since the A.I. voiceover obviously cant get hungry. 6. Smoky D's in des moines. 5. Mt Hamill chicken. 4.The bridges of madison county. 3. Field of Dreams in Dyersville. 2. Midwest Old Thresher's Reunion in Mt Pleasant. And 1, Kinnick Stadium on a fall home Saturday. Youre welcome. Go Hawks!!.

[@susangrande8142]

I haven’t watched the whole video yet; does she mention the Iowa State Fair? It’s a great attraction, in my opinion.

[@vitaliyvyntu4566]

Thank You so much

[@USHistorians]

You're most welcome

[@grettalemabouchou6779]

WONDERFUL ❤

[@garyhull5617]

Whatever you do.............Do not skip a visit to Garrison, before concluding your visit to Iowa.

[@KamrynMcCalll]

Future reference it’s pronounced “MA” KO” KETA I am a from iowa I got you fam

[@glennso47]

I’m from Carroll County Illinois so I’m pretty familiar with Maquokata, Iowa

[@joanneyarwood147]

Hey you left out Pelli ,Iowa the tulip festival and the Beauty of Decorah Iowa

[@SarahGreen523]

It's Pella, Iowa. Decorah is gorgeous!

[@kenvandevoort7820]

I liked the trestle trail bridge better when I saw one of the first Milwaukee trains cross it after it was built.

[@kimschleiger4813]

Thank you for your time and resources that you spent to make this video.

[@sherylbutler9176]

😂

[@jakeedits312]

As an Iowan, it really bothers me when she pronounces the S’s in Des Moines THE S’S ARE SILENT!!!

[@Firguy]

Don't blame her, she's a text-to-speech module. Blame the guy who copy-pasted the script.

[@gregthebaritone]

not nearly as annoying as Mack-kwo-KAY-tuh -- it's Muh-KWO-keh-tuh

[@anime_edits0023]

Deez moines

[@tail66]

i never heard the S's until i moved to Iowa

[@Justbradley24]

Hah yeah

[@user-ix5qd1bp4q]

We are 🌏 Citizens if? Then to give A Kindness 🆚 cruelty? Values Valleys Valued Natures Neighborhood ?Its mean " NNN, For Nice Noble Neighborhood" A Great 🎁 thanks to sharing .

[@bradhansen9011]

She's never been in Iowa! Pronounced lots of the towns and area's wrong. Mack-wah-kah-ta and Lowes hills. If you're going to do show about a state, do your homework!!

[@STLTHMC]

"She" is not a human. It's computer narrated.

[@BrandonJEvansPhotography]

Even some Iowans don't say the names correctly though. But yeah... incorrect pronunciation of Des Moines and Maquoketa is always painful to hear 😂

[@smittyjohnson9554]

It's a good list though. That's the point of the video. The mispronunciations are understandable.

[@mikestoneking4992]

i will have to do it by myself

[@Dnn411]

watch corn grow?

[@CSAmapping]

Forgot Moorehead park

[@cherylbarrett3443]

DeMoines with an audible "S" on the end? That is not how you pronounce it. It becomes hard to believe you know anything about Iowa, when you make a mistake like that.

[@jimzanios3260]

Mason City and Clear Lake?

[@roryniccum9144]

Surf Ballroom

[@jackmehoff1832]

Best thing to do in Iowa? Crank!! In Tweaker Bluffs

[@debbie4315]

I teach in a community college in another state and every day I always have a travel video playing as students saunter in. I love Iowa and go there every summer, so I thought I would do Iowa today. I muttered to myself "She doesn't know how to pronounce Des Moines," but as soon as she said Street Joseph, I realized it was AI and just turned it off.

[@clarencemcgregor8568]

AI voices need to learn that certain consonants are SILENT!!!

[@lightstar6701]

They pronounced acouple right

[@jarlsoars1150]

I think this was created using AI. The cadence of the speech and pronunciations are really wonky.

[@chrisbacon5223]

​@@jarlsoars1150 So it' A (not) I

[@jakejennings5152]

Are there lots of Basketball and Jalapeño Americans in Iowa?

[@ericfranz1723]

???

[@jeffb321]

Not much but there here lol

[@Ronniejamesleo]

Huh?

[@Sabby899-qp1dw]

Sounds like AI

[@alaminshake5673]

My KZbin channel needs a manager or is being managed

[@elenagirelli170]

Please pray for protection from cult bullies..

[@erich4647]

It's pronounced Ma-Coke-it-ta. Why would you make a video about places you don't know how to pronounce? Nearly every city was pronounced wrong.

[@smittyjohnson9554]

The mispronunciations in this video are painful.

[@Justbradley24]

The national balloon festival is very boring

[@mikestoneking4992]

shit she don't know

[@speakingquitefrankly]

All this video did was convince people not to go to Iowa.

[@chrisbacon5223]

How about before you make videos, you learn the proper pronunciations? You mangled Des Moines, loess, Maquoketa and more. Insulting.

[@paulforester6996]

The best thing to do in Iowa is move out while you can.

[@SarahGreen523]

AI narration that mispronounced the cities and names of features. Since I live in Iowa, and have been to many of these places, it really grates on my nerves to hear so many being mispronounced.

[@jimstock7459]

She doesn't have a clue about Iowa!!

[@merlehamblin6266]

The Best thing to do in Iowa is GET OUT!!!

[@Dani-gt1xd]

Why?

[@Ronniejamesleo]

​@@Dani-gt1xdBest to not even care but be thankful that person doesn't.

[@themaestro3034]

The best thing to do in Iowa is leave.

[@Dani-gt1xd]

Why

[@paulstatz5188]

The most exciting thing to do in Iowa is find a bordering state and go there

[@Ronniejamesleo]

Like Illinois where there is no growth
