Mark, this video was an absolute breath of fresh air. Believe me, I needed it today. It was like sitting across from a longtime buddy and being told everything is okay, and life is going exactly as it should. Your videos helped get me through a difficult 2023 when I was helping my wife battle breast cancer, as well as through my own health scare later in the year. She’s in complete remission and I’m now on the road to recovery. Your vids continue to keep me company during my long walks. The only problem I have is choosing which one to listen to. It’s like thumbing through the vinyl collection lol, you have so many great ones. What a perfect channel you have. I want to thank you for everything, Mark. And if you aren’t too busy please send me a shout! Your friend, Joe from Gilroy, California…The Garlic Capital of the World.

It should be out this Friday. Thanks for tuning in Joe, I wish you and your family nothing but the best. Garlic capitol of the world sounds like a place I would love to live...lol..have a great week Joe....:)

Howdy Mark! Thank you for another awesome ramble. You truly are a gem to the ASMR community. I've been listening (more than watching) to your videos since the beginning and I love the variety that your channel has to offer. This video is just another testament to how you can make any topic relaxing. God bless you and Linda and take care of yourselves!

Amazing my friend, I hope you know I still watch every video but just don’t have the time to comment on all anymore, I’m sure you know where I’m coming from 🤣 love these kind of deeper more meaningful stories you tell, they really strike a chord with me at the moment in my life… my wee Blair Bear is going to be 5 months old on Thursday if you can believe that! he’s just the absolute light of our life, his personality coming out more and more everyday is just amazing, anyway much love to you, Linda and your family hope you’re all well 💙 p.s your story at the end really made me chuckle, I know it wasn’t meant to be funny and you were embarrassed and angry, but I do the weekly shop every weekend and just picturing you in that situation when you’re normally so chilled tickled me, if only she knew the memory you had and details you can recall 🤣 superb content as always

Howdy Mark. I have some American football to watch right now. I'll check this out tonight. Looks like it'll be relevant to us geezers. See you in a few hours. Wow! I'm 62 and only starting to live well. I'm ending my live music career. I'm building a home studio as we speak. I need to record the music I've made for decades so my kids and grandkids can know what pops did. I'm about 5 grand away. So in 8 or 10 weeks, I'll be hitting you up for engineering advice. What a long, strange trip it's been.

I’m a couple years away from 50. I enjoyed my 40’s. Kids are now self-sufficient for the most part, have money in my pocket, more opportunity to do what I enjoy, etc. However, my metabolism, or what’s left of it, hates me. I also have pain in areas that come and go without any clue as to why, lol. Father Time is undefeated.👎🏻
