The gift of the magi is about selfless love. The people loved their significant other so much they gave up their most important possessions to make the other person happy. They were not unhappy in the end because they still had each other.

[@sirchromiumdowns2015]

I'm glad you took a couple days off, CB. You had a really rough go of it in Ohio. You put out an enormous amount of content. You're the best.

[@TheCazzy82]

strange pink toy is a Boohbah, British exercise show for toddlers from the creators of Teletubbies. Designed to be interactive, Boohbah encourages children to move, dance and create stories while exploring science, technology and fantasy. only ran for 3 years 2003 to 2006.

[@CreativeCreatorCreates]

The archived website has all the kooky games they had. My kids loved it and our friends were compelled lol

[@daeandknight]

I used to watch Boobah throughout my childhood, my mom would always make me turn it off because she said they were really scary 😂

[@nostalgianerds9841]

Carpetbagger, you always make my day a little bit brighter. Thanks for showing us your adventures.

[@davidhernander7217]

Those ribs look so good enjoy carpetbagger

[@kevinnesbitt6485]

It's the love for another and sacrifice one will make to make another happy. Sold pocket watch, for combs, sold hair for chain for said pocket watch......it's a beautiful vicious circle of love for another. I can definitely relate and appreciate that story. Thanks Jacob for taking the time to share that......that hit me probably harder than most.

[@susanboatman7913]

Your lunch looked really good. I love baby back ribs. I love collard greens. My mom is from Mississippi and used to make collards. She also made 2 types of cornbread: hot water and buttermilk cornbread. The buttermilk cornbread was made in a cast iron cornstick pan. I used to dip the hot water cornbread into the pot liquor from the collard greens. The hot water cornbread was made in a regular cast iron pan.

[@vggalbraith5076]

The moral of the story of the gift of the maji is when you sacrifice something you love for someone you love and that is greatest gift of all.

[@pearlsgirl45]

That lunchbox room brought back so many feels from my childhood! I had forgotten about a lot of those shows 😊

[@danmiller6800]

Thanks for the entertainment on this lovely Saturday. Have a wonderful weekend

[@quakeroats8128]

I definitely recommend visiting Luray Caverns in Page County, Va. The breathtaking caverns, couple of museums, and a garden maze. Definitely worth the visit!

[@lespaul85]

Awesome you are back there. I remember being drunk-ish and seeing you walk by right around that ATM area on a St Patricks day(night) a few years ago and me not knowing anything other than to yell "Hey, Carpetbagger"... Was awesome randomly meeting you then. And I must say despite not being there in about 2 years, I've always loved the Pinball museum the few times I've been there.

[@wingflex5367]

I've been to Asheville before, it felt like a lot of people squeezed into a small area. I prefer the towns outside of there, like Waynesville. I love Western North Carolina, hoping to make it back one day.

[@BanazirGalpsi1968]

[@gr8scott198]

Thank you, Sir Bagster. I appreciate you!

[@melissamurphy1558]

Another Great video Jacob ! You are Unforgettable so don't worry about that, we are all with you on your great Adventures you provide for us. We always look forward to all the Great Journeys you provide for us, we are Always ready for the next one !!

[@getmeagator]

The lunchbox museum was GREAT to watch. As a kid, I used that Disney "monorail" lunchbox to store my Viewfinder & slides.

[@mikehughes4969]

The lunchbox museum was amazing. I had the original Star Wars lunchbox, as well as the Six Million Dollar Man. My brother had that E.T. one. I remember some of those pinball machines. For just a moment, it was 1976, and I'm eight years old, riding my bike to the bowling alley to play pinball. Thanks for the time warp, my friend.

[@STho205]

You and Jackson Browne's son both had The Six Million Dollar Man lunchbox in 76/77. You can see him holding it in photographs from the Running on Empty concert tour.

[@mikehughes4969]

@@STho205Wish I still had it.

[@STho205]

@@mikehughes4969 I have my 1st grade Man from Uncle lunchbox. My big sister picked it out, as that was her favorite show.

[@AlreadyFree612]

I remember watching Lance Link when I was little because my dad had recorded a bunch of episodes onto VHS tapes. It's a funny show, I would love to have that lunchbox! I enjoyed seeing all those lunchboxes, the metal ones were the best, thanks for the trip down memory lane!

[@MaliceLaStrange]

Wow that lunchbox museum was awesome! Something I’ve always wanted to collect if I had the space!

[@janicewright6375]

It's good to have you back in NC!

[@PhantomDoctor]

I want that The Secret of Nimh lunchbox so bad. Thanks for showing it Jacob!

[@cattyd1975]

Myself and some others did the Lazoom Halloween tour and had a blast, it was hilarious. I love seeing you in Asheville and look forward to more from this region.

[@semrekl]

Glad you took it easy close to home, Jacob!

[@chrissysprinkles211]

I was actually planning on going to Asheville this weekend but didn’t get to. Thanks for showing me some stuff to do there when I finally get to go.

[@jonathanhope3672]

Thanks for showing the lunchbox museum. I remember having a transformer lunchbox and thermos when I was a kid, but I would have sold my sister for a Snorks lunchbox! Loved the Snorks.

[@mr_mad_hatter1062]

Always a good day when you visit pinball places. Keep up the good work jacob!

[@henryescat1104]

Those lunch boxes were awesome! Man that place looks fun!

[@lindasolis7117]

Love the old games and collectibles. Thank you! Glad you had a couple days to be with family and decompress 🙂

Butch Patrick from the Munsters was in the TV show Lidsville

I live in Asheville and have never been to any of the places you showed us. I'm going to Rocket Fizz on my next day off! 😁 Thanks Jacob! PS: We could never forget you!

[@kevinnesbitt6485]

I'm really happy you made it home After everything it's good to refresh

Glad you took time off, and close to back home, not far from where I live, Greenville, SC. 😊

[@dawnbenchley7237]

Love the lunch box museum. I have The Man From U.N.C.L.E., The Monroes and The Waltons.

[@brandonnelson3936]

There is a new taxidermy museum in Pigeon Forge at Lumberjack Square called "Mountain Wildlife Museum" that you should definitely check out.

[@Bigle_Travels]

The O'Hare Airport keeps being a sighting spot of Mothman and I'd like the pennant because of that.

[@kevinbarrett5001]

That lunch box museum was awesome 👍

Hey You All!

[@allenmattson2468]

That is the best , some of my family lives there , but once gone to twelve bones i was hooked grits i miss the most.

Thought you were taking some time off...You probably need it...but enjoyed seeing this latest video pop up!

[@gladyskusko2663]

I am happy you are back. You look happier and rested. Be safe on the roads. God Blees.

[@leslietonn3181]

This year will be the 50th anniversary of KNOTT'S SCARY FARM! Somewhere to go to this October.

[@judahparks213]

I was just at that pinball museum the other day! No joke I thought to myself "I wonder if Carpetbagger's been here" lol

[@karentucker2161]

I love the gremlin lunch box and the plaid ones as well.

[@Segafishy]

I'd load up a crate of sodas and spend my days in those museums happiley even if it meant having Wolverine watch me pee, Pinballs one of the few things these days that makes me super happy. Your fluffy friend I think was something called either an Oobie or Oobah, vaguely remember them being advertised when I was younger but definately didn't have one, probably aimed at the Furby crowd as I think they popped out a mini one after a while of being raised.

[@zerxilk8169]

it is always good to take a little time off and recharge.

My wife and I were eating lunch as you come in hahaha

[@goofyrulez7914]

Good to see you. I was getting worried.

[@Charlie-pu9bx]

We need to bring back these kinds of lunchboxes. I don't think these tin ones were really ever a thing in the UK. There's a really cool vintage arcade just a short train trip from where I live. It's so cool being able to try them out!

[@katiealdana150]

Great video Jacob! Thank you 😁

[@daveotuwa5596]

Lunch boxes used to be popular before I was brought to the world. It could be popularized just in case students are fearful about the inflation on the school lunch.

[@mr_jake.y8348]

[@haskellburks]

Good morning Jacob. You're in Asheville NC. All of the places that you've gone to there in Asheville NC are awesome.

Love this video. Makes me homesick being from that area but now living cross country. ❤

I think the point of the tumbler full of beads is to show what an astronomical task it is to find stuff out in space.

Looks like a loaded episode, can’t wait :)

i lived in waynesvile for awhile love it.....

[@mcwatersd]

Over due for a couple of days to rest up after all the on the road troubles. Great that you got to visit family .That lunch looked good although collard greens have never appealed to me. So many interesting places but I really loved the lunch box hall of fame. You find the most interesting facts about things often overlooked. Don't know how you do it. Great video Keep Safe ❤Keep Well❤

The pink monster is a BooBah! Dancing multicoloured blobs that make farting noises when they move. The show also features a family unit in sketches that usually included the narration comment ‘somebody’s coming’ 😂😂 I’d love to see the presentation they used to make the show 😂😂 good for a giggle and they are really cute 😉😅 x
