Leno and Osborne in Audrain Mansions & Motorcars: Season 1 Episode 2: Seafair

[@yepperooyepperoo5800]

I'm so glad that Jay got ownership of this great mansion. He appreciates the history.

[@jeremychambers1949]

I dread the day that Jay goes to heaven. He is literally rock solid, accountable, funny but passionate even at the cost of being silly. It brings everyone around him up! Makes them better in everyone else’s perception. It’s almost subconscious at this point, he levels the room then humbles himself!

[@badapple65]

Will Jay and Mavis’ neighbor’s be upset when Jay erects a 60 car garage just to keep his East Coast line up? What a fun neighbor to have. Jay Fricken Leno! Great guy. Why does this channel not have 1-Million subscribers? Donald is the Man.

[@mexicanspec]

I bet Jay is looking for warehouse space and qualified mechanics as we speak.

[@AudrainMuseumNetwork]

Thank you for the kind words! Jay keeps all his vehicles on the West Coast!

[@barrykaine6526]

Cars on the northeast coast get eaten by the salt they put on the roads in winter; that, and the salt air at that place would doom any autos living there. (This is just his New England "cottage", doncha' know.)

[@OllamhDrab]

@@barrykaine6526 Usually in New England the sea air doesn't seem anywhere near as bad in effects as you hear about in Florida, it's the *road salt* that really gets you. (Though I dunno about that jagged RI coastline this way, just the ocean temperature's usually that much lower and offshore breezes dominate, generally. Probably actually being out on the water and parking outside wouldn't be the best. )

[@emjayay]

@@OllamhDrab At least on the East Coast the prevailing wind is more often going toward the ocean, not toward the land. Best to keep the Rolls or Veyron in the six car garage of course.

[@kev3d]

Art Deco is the design equivalent of beauties from the golden age of film. Class, style, refined, with a dream-like quality that will likely never be repeated.

[@dougcargill6730]

LOVE the story of how Jay acquired the house. Great vehicles too.

[@joemannix6643]

I like “East Coast Jay” , like coming home to his roots. La La Land is nice but never home for East Coasters.

[@buzzcrushtrendkill]

I can relate. As a midwesterner, CA has been a good place to live but it isn't considered "home". Getting out of CA every now and then is required

[@jec1ny]

Everyone should live in California for five years. I lasted ten. But then it was time to go.

[@speedracer2336]

Or anywhere else either. Beautiful state but the taxes, homeless, politics are just too much. Would never live there!

[@MrXyzasdf]

Likewise, my sentiments exactly. Home is California for me.

[@eldiablo8019]

If Jay Leno wasn't famous and you met him walking his dog on the road in front of that house dressed the way he is here, and HE told you that was his house, you would go YEA RIGHT.

[@deeferguson9272]

Youve never met a New England yankee.

[@jordandavis6635]

Exactly Robert, I'm from where Jay is from. You'd be surprised.

[@I-am-awayTOM]

I met Jay a few times... just the most real guy! unless you want to be the guy driving...

[@marcp1180]

Just imagine the privelege it would be to sit in the same room as those two and hear the conversations from two of the greatest car gurus that have ever been born. That would be priceless!

[@jeffharper6259]

One could say we already get that every time one of these videos is created :)

[@83300d]

These are just GREAT presentations. I love how you mix the cool cars and the beautiful houses. You show Newport's beauty and history!

[@garryferrington811]

My wife and I met Jay at a gas station in Burbank. He really is that open and nice.

I wish there was a super-like button. Terrific car, and great discussion by Donald and Jay.

[@brentanllewellyn3898]

Donald is a true gent. I cant believe he puts up with Mr Leno.

[@davekostka7151]

That car is so beautiful. There are some nice cars out there now, but nothing like that, the lines flow.

[@michaelkelly3221]

Which one, there's two cars in this episode.

[@michaelwelschmidt9338]

I imagine the speed limitation in the 30’s and 40’s wasn’t the chassis or the engine, it was the tires.

[@bigredc222]

Even if you had a car that could go 100, there were very few paved roads back then, so you're really taking your life in your hands flying down a bumpy gravel road.

[@hendo337]

Tires and brakes were the limitations. 😬

[@louispaparella5766]

You know you've made it when your chauffeur lives in a Newport mansion. Well played Mr. Osborne.

[@2500vtg]

Wouldn't it be awesome to go back in time and watch a six-year-old Jay Leno with his dad going into a car dealership to purchase a new vehicle?

[@BertYaw]

Common Jay, Show us the House... Very Neat! Dopmn't be embarrassed, share your success, we will love it, and you!

[@PrincessDiana1256]

It's official. I am jealous, Jay Leno! I love your hobby of collecting cars, history and houses.. miss you on tv...I just retired myself, and know that you are a happy camper. Best wishes to you and your endeavors. Inspirational. And just plain fun.

[@wintermagebarthow8481]

The opening of this video is fun and tells the entire story without words. What a great buddy episode. One of my favorite vehicles, so beautiful. And what a dapper brother in fabulous attire, goes well with the auto. All you need is a newsboys cap.

[@emjayay]

The house was listed for $17.5M and Leno bought it for $13.5M. It has a six car garage.

[@MYJ61]

Jay was right. As compared to California coastal real estate that was a relative bargain!

[@joevald3]

Leno and Osborne I can hang around with all day . I never get sick of listening to both of them . Perfect match. I wonder what Jay's collection is really worth ....................?

[@moparsatnv]

These episodes are pure gold! The knowledge these two gentlemen have is incredible, please keep these going!

[@jorgecarretero8436]

Congratulations on the purchase of that beautiful house, mansion, or castle and those gorgeous cars and bike into this awesome settings. Mr Jay's has he's dream turn into reality from a person that never forget where he came from.

Love Jay. He's always so chill, great storyteller.

[@frankfedewa9769]

I like how Jay acts like his own person and even if it doesn't meet The narrative of the episode he's honest about car history and history itself. It's also great to see him driving a car of that caliber dressed like a normal guy

[@robertphillips6296]

Jay, you have 3 real winners there.

[@MYJ61]

I so love the juxtaposition of the “Everyman” jeans and t-shirted Jay with the polish, style and sophistication of Donald. But also having two experts in the automotive arts who compliment each other so well. I love this series!

[@QwikAdDotCom]

You guys have two absolutely different personalities, but somehow it works really well. Very entertaining to watch.

When you have a friend like Osborne you do these things as often as possible to mess with 'em

Donald is the type you don't know if you could trust in real life, unless you KNOW him %100, and have known him for a long time... Where Jay is the type that YOU FEEL Like you've ALWAYS KNOWN HIM!. and it's a given that he is trustworthy no matter what!. If ya know him or not... Donald, maybe trustworthy, maybe not, ya gotta get to know him, Jay?! %100 trustable always!, know him or NOT, %100... He's a car guy first a foremost!! A trustworthy genuine guy, who just so happens to be famous...... Donald not so much... Donald you have to get to know, to see his true character.... Get to know him, to see what he's like in real life, behind the scenes... Jay, is JAY, we are seeing him who he is behind the scenes

[@MerkMacheen]

I like Donald, and YEs Jay and him do work well together, My comment isn't putting Donald down. I'm just stating facts, whether you like/hate/love/dont care/whatever you Feel about the both of these people. I'm just stating facts about the both of them

Loved this piece. The Auburn is absolutely gorgeous. The three vehicles sitting around Seafair's amazing circular driveway looks so perfect. Also, driving along Ocean Drive brings back very fond memories. I owned a house in Newport (Swinburne) for many years and I miss being there. Can't wait for more episodes!

[@nicks9707]

[@writerconsidered]

You know Jay is on someone else's show when he forgets to mention his mclaren f1. I like these 2 together, they compliment each other nicely.

[@costrow3100]

Love these 2 together. I’m a big fan of Newport. It’s a little oddball kind of small town on a beautiful coast with a great history in New England. Close to NYC, Boston, Vermont and a great weeklong stop if travelling through New England. Leno and his wife found a great location to entertain his family .

[@themancaveclub]

Is he referring to Joseph Verner Reed, who had the mansion built? There is both a J. Verner Reed Sr. And Jr. who both were involved with Chase Bank. Verner Reed Jr. was also given a ambassadorship by Reagan. Also, I think they are overlooking the issue that a mansion with such opulence was built during the depression, when most people in America were starving.

[@RD2564]

Cool house, Jay. Too bad about the hurricanes but it's cool that it's close(r) to your east coast roots.

[@Bhall958]

I am from newport, im so glad i finally found a channel that runs thru my hometown

Hi Jay . Yes , l love the story behind the house . And the Alfa has striking similarities t bo the Bristol 403 off yours ......but 15 years older ! Thanks Jay and Donald , just subscribed.

What a great video! Congratulations gentlemen! Those beautiful cars and stunningly beautiful mansion make me an even prouder born and bread Rhode Islander and member of the wonderful Audrian Museum!

[@L3Trip]

6C and Seafair is a SUPERB combination!

[@craigcampbell1843]

The show is called mansions and motorcars. I came just as much to see the house as the cars. We got to see the cars inside and out, but while I love the stories about the house, I wanted to get a tour of it like we did the cars and we really only got to see the driveway.

[@craigcampbell1843]

@Flasher Trasher I want to see how Jay lives. I’m glad you were happy with the video. There’s a lot more to a mansion than the driveway.

[@craigcampbell1843]

@Flasher Trasher ok? Then they should call the show downtowns, waterfronts and motorcars. Not mansions and motorcars. If I wanted to watch shows about downtowns or waterfronts I wouldn’t watch a show called mansions and motorcars. I’d watch a show called downtowns and waterfronts.

[@bob007fl]

My husband and I live 40 min from Newport and are frequent visitors. We’ve driven by Seafair dozens of times; but it can’t be seen from the road. It’s set way back from the road closer to the ocean. We acquired a membership to Audrain this past summer. Seen two of their exhibits, so far, and plan to visit the newest one which opened in November. Its an awesome museum. Small; and the staff running it are warm, very knowledgeable, and friendly. It would be awesome to run into Jay; but, unfortunately, he spends most of his time on the West Coast.

[@stinkintoad]

If you go up to the gate you can see the house. I've done it on my bike.

[@blythegimble2576]

Hey Jay, wonderful video at your New England classic seaside mansion. I know you and your wife love having the vacation home. What a joy it must be! Also, I enjoy watching KZbin videos of abandoned mansions left behind by the well off. Do you imagine your vacation home to be eventually discovered by such KZbinrs for documentation one day? I actually hope it never becomes victim to cobwebs, peeling paint, mold, and general neglect. What do you see for the future of this grand place? Anyway, happy driving!

[@donmelvin7102]

This series is like Alain de Cadenet hosting Legends of Motorsport. You want to binge watch every episode . I much prefer the East Coast vibe to Californication. This house still stands after the hurricanes of '38 and '55. If California coast line experienced those storms?, well, the curent coast line would be a mile plus inland. Jay should host more of his shows from this lovely coast.
