Driving Through the Arizona Desert - Strange Sites

[@tantomane6990]

A "Critic" reference! Gods be praised. Anyone else love "Mom and Dad Save the World"? Another highly quotable Jon Lovitz performance!

[@katenunyabizness9221]

That was Captain Crook who later was only called The Captain. And yes, that's the newer version of Simon.

[@silverghostcat1924]

When you tape for the day, you can tape a little extra to post on the days you want to take a break. Love your videos. Take care going back east, hope it's decent weather on the road! You kept saying west but that was probably wishful thinking 😁 I'm sure the surgery will go well. 🦷 Change is part of life, even the sad, painful changes can have a positive side in the long run. Hang in there Carpetbagger your fans will stick with you no matter what comes along 💖

[@conniecrawford5231]

It’s a good thing you got your burger before your surgery- you will be on soft foods only for a while! Good luck, buddy!

[@matturban9103]

The pirate from McDonald's is Captain Crook. The big chipmunk is Theodore. Simon wears glasses.

[@georgiabentz9503]

Alvin wears red, Simon is tall with glasses, and Theodore wears green. I used to watch the Chipmunks back in the 80's. LoL.

[@rosel.1874]

I LOVE THE CRITIC!!!!🌟🌟🌟❤❤❤😂😂😂😂😂BUY MY BOOK! BLESSINGS AND LOVE TO YOU JACOB!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@littlesthobo182]

I remembered that exact scene when he mentioned it. Jacob kind of reminds me of Jon Lovitz.

[@wiskerzcassadore9563]

I laughed at the part when you said "disembodied butt" 😂

[@OldManRauth]

Jacob... You knew that the cacti were going to poke you. Ya killin me here man!

[@jmorgan5252]

Jacob your mutton chops are looking Great! Don't worry getting your wisdom teeth out isn't a big deal. Thank you for another great video

[@blakeyanez2988]

Hey Jacob! Long time fan here,, just wanted to say thank you for all your videos! Me and my brother watch them daily and it gives us something to connect through. Don’t worry about taking breaks,, we all need them! And I promise you will have atleast 2 loyal fans always returning after your hiatuses! You bring a lot of happiness to peoples lives that you aren’t aware of, so keep doin you! Thanks again for everything :)

[@victoriastuart5308]

Jacob, you are one of my favorite people ever!!! Please don't ever give up on KZbin, take your time to heal! But know you could never be forgotten.

[@Eighties-Jadie]

Hi Jacob thanks again for a very enjoyable watch! I am so grateful to have discovered your channel. You are a strong admirable soul and I truly admire your positivity and strength despite your current hardships. Also please know you aren't alone. You only have to read the comments to see how many of us love and support you and if need be take a break to look after yourself. We understand completely. Last, but not least, I really enjoyed seeing that delicious burger food that has inspired me to make burgers and chips! 🍔😍🍟 You take care Jacob and safe travels. Best wishes and big hugs ✨

[@Guernicaman]

That figure w/the pirate hat is indeed "Captain Cook".

[@kristaseyler654]

Yes very sorry about your situation I hope all goes well in the future and maybe you can do some trips with you daughter . Best of luck to you !!

[@Nowhereman10]

The Titan Missile Museum near Tucson, AZ is where you'll find a Titan missile on display in an actual former Cold War-era silo. Well worth the trip.

[@angie8088]

For some reason I laughed every time you poked a cactus. 😄 Simon is the tall chipmunk with the glasses, and Theodore is short and loves snacks.

[@Yoodilly]

absolutely love the style of everyday vlogging Jacob! So fun to follow you around on a daily basis, and even if its not everyday its still awesome. I especially love these videos of the in-betweens and little town as you go from state to state. have a good trip back east and just know that you'll always have the support of your fans as you have given them so much throughout the years. Change is always hard and scary but its good to see you truly enjoying yourself in these videos and that goes a long way.

[@pickeldpunches5906]

Welcome to Arizona! Love that you're here. Drink lots of water!!

[@elizebethcutshaw846]

The chipmuck is Theodore. Simon had the glasses

[@thekaz2289]

So who else had to search for that "Buy my book!" segment from The Critic? Of course my 9 yr old had to play the 3 minute looped version and watched it for ALL THREE MINUTES! Thanks Jacob.

[@honkeykong85]

Stay safe out there Jacob! Keep up the great work.

[@johnwaldow3024]

That was Theodore of the chipmunks! Simon is the tall skinny one

[@BennyLlama39]

Jacob: "Over here is the town of Nothing, Arizona." Me: The most accurate place name *I've* ever heard. 😀

[@nise5281]

I had all four impacted wisdom teeth removed when I was 17 I am 59 now Lol you will be fine, just take a few days to heal and get over the surgery.

[@littlesthobo182]

I did too. I think people don't realize that they will need time to recover from that. It will be fine, though, as you say but rest afterward is important.

[@sarahhauck3415]

For some reason seeing those old neon signs made me happy.

[@ChurchofCthulhu]

Glad the giant baby is still there. Used to be a giant chicken across the road from it.

[@littlesthobo182]

It is so life-like. I can't even visualize how they would make that. I mean, I know it's a photo but so huge.

[@conniecrawford5231]

Jacob, you could also say “ strange sights”! Lol

[@LuxyVT]

Actually, Simon is the chickmunk thats tall and has glasses, you mixed them up 😆

[@gracegalindo1511]

OMG The Critic! I don’t remember “Buy my book!“ but that is a great show. Loved the neon park! Yet another example of something I might never have seen if you hadn’t shown it to us. Safe travels!

[@ph43drus]

I don't understand people's devotion to sub-par fast food that one has to add salad dressing to in order to make it palatable. They finally came to Texas. Tried it. Blech. Whataburger kerb stomps In and Out.

[@lisakatriba9841]

In and Out Burger 🍔 🍟 is Absolutely Vile! Glendale California is the worst one ever found a Rock In the Burger last time I dined in!

[@littlesthobo182]

People like what they like. No biggie.

[@Sparty-pi3jq]

That In and Out looked so darn good! I've not had it in a few years (pre-pandemic) and I still think about it quite alot! Great video series Jacob! Good luck with your dental surgery.

[@rhondaskipper64]

Enjoyed your video very much, thank you for sharing your trip with us 🤗

Yay I've never been this early to a video lol love your videos Jacob. Be safe going home. And I feel you on the wisdom teeth. I had to have my two top ones out a couple years ago.

[@totalvamp792]

It's Theadore from the chipmunks. Simon wears the glasses.

[@russjm55]

Hey Jacob, all the very best for your exiting future, it gets easier, the kids get used to it, and it's always for the best. I've been there, we all have. My long term partner left and I was in a bad place..... then, at 55, I met the love of my life, we're inseparable. Love the videos. They're real, fun and off the back them, we're coming to Vegas from the UK to get married. All the very best. Russ.

Buy my book... Buy my book... Buy my book... Buy my book... Ok, I'll shut up.😂😂😂 Seriously though, both the signs and the neon were amazing.

[@sirekumasutra7022]

Best of luck on your surgery Jacob and thank you so much for the polls. It was fun getting to choose the places and hope there's another one once the weather is warmer.

[@RyanShyffer]

Glad you made it to the neon sign park. I was really surprised by that place when I stopped by there last year.

[@adventuresintvland]

The baby in thumbnail reminds me of the solar baby in last season’s Rick and Morty.

[@vafunseekers]

Nothing is truly nothing! Thanks for sharing the strange sites you came across on your trip. Keep the videos coming!

[@pickeldpunches5906]

I recommend checking out Flagstaff, Jerome Bisbee, tombstone Arizona is a treasure trove of old west history.

[@blackandwhitegamingproduct7356]

I’ve always wanted to visit flagstaff and tombstone

I've been to Nothing, back when it was actually something. That shell of a building used to be a gas station. It got a fair amount of business, as there weren't many places to get gas when driving on that road from Vegas to Phoenix.

[@videosbyvangie0553]

We found nothing AZ the hard way. Clutch on car broke down on way to Laughlin for Xmas one year. The guy who owned let us call ahead to the Colorado Belle regarding our reservation by CB radio because they didn’t have phone service in Nothing AZ

Loving this road trip! But I know I might be watching a bit too much carpetbagger when…at 4am your intro song was the only thing my brain could think of. Over and over and over. 🤣 Keep up the great work friend!♥️🤘🏻

[@atypicalmom]

Yes for the vlog style, I love it. My favorite is the small towns. We certainly don't expect you to post every day, but when you post we will watch!

[@jandbhabib1105]

After you leave Tucson stop at The Thing. Great stop for oddities, very different than it was a few years ago. Safe travels.

[@FreulerAZ]

Welcome to Arizona! I hope you enjoy Tucson as well while you're here.

[@kamanojk]

Sorry I missed you in LV. I recommend taking polls in advance of any future road trips, then you can plan your route and billeting. Also, I am sorry to hear things at home aren't the best. Life goes on....make the best of it.

[@Skunkape74]

As someone that used to live in the piedmont triad area of North Carolina but currently living in NW Florida I personally miss Bojangles... KFC and Churches chicken just don't cut it for me...Good stuff Jacob...Thanks for sharing.

There’s a Bojangles in St. Augustine.

Hopefully will find that perfect cactus🌵someday...🤞🏼💯✔️

[@Veiled_Lepidoptera]

Regarding the snippet about The Critic: I was genuinely surprised you remember that. It feels like a show that's lost to time apart from the few of us that were into 'grown up cartoons' long before they really became what they are today. Also, when you said "If you're real quiet you can hear...." I 100% expected you to just softly go "Buy my book! Buy my book!" XD

[@carlyrose4040]

I love how much you love In-N-Out! It’s amazing and I love it too!!! Now I need to get some soon.

Visiting my Sister in So Cal, always had to have In N Out. Wish it was on East Coast too. Safe trip home Jacob.

[@JamesStach]

Try not to stress over the wisdom teeth, I had mine removed a few months back. It was the first surgery I’ve ever had and first time I have ever been under general anesthesia. It wasn’t bad at all, just the unknown that freaked me out since I’d never had it. Just get lots of good protein shakes and other soft food…and someone to help you out on the first day they are removed, you should be good to go after that.

[@littlesthobo182]

The soft food is the best suggestion and I would add room temperature to that. I wasn't back to eating normally for about 3 weeks and hot and cold temperatures really bothered me.

[@Showthebill765]

Let Jesus take the wheel !! I loved your trip so far !!

[@goldengirl54]

I had all four impacted wisdom teeth out at once. Took me about a week to get back to feeling more normal. Just a tip, make sure you get your pain meds. before the Novocain wears off. 😬🦷💕

[@littlesthobo182]

All good advice. I had a similar experience. Felt better in a week but still couldn't eat normally until the 3rd week.

[@paulajarman9314]

Just found your channel when the PEZ visit came up.

[@IWISHTROLL]

With as many fast food places from the East Coast that are moving over to being big in the west coast slowly I wouldn't be surprised if in-and-out made a move over to the east coast as well

[@johnrogers6291]

Yes Jacob, cactus are pointy ! Interesting variety of stops.

[@DeeTrice-Williams]

Jacob, I heard what happened in the last video 📹 , I'm sorry that you & your lovely wife separate it, but I did say a prayer 🙏🏽 for you, your wife & your situation, & will keep you in my prayers 🙏🏽, I hope you make it back in time to have your surgery, & I ask God to please look over you in Jesus name Amen. Dana [Dee Trice-Williams] I do follow you...

When you said $5 a gallon for gas, i nearly choked on my coffee. I thought 3.80 a gallon is expensive for gas.

[@CaryUSA2007]

Nice to see you cruising through AZ. It's a great state, one I've adopted as my own since 2006. Lots of fun places and interesting legends to explore here. Big hugs to you, change isn't always easy or fun but we all go through some changes that either make us or our lives better or teach us something we needed to learn. Good luck with your wisdom teeth, I know how they can cause problems and make you feel like your head's going to exploded lol That was my experience. Anywho, safe travels and much thanks from me for these outstanding and fun videos.

[@traynada5755]

My mom got me one of your pins as a surprise and I love it! All time fan. I was so thrilled. I've never been to in and out, man that food looks good!

[@lorrainethepain]

You're gonna need to take a break once you get back to NC and get those teeth removed. You'll be exhausted from the trip and you'll need a few days to recuperate from the oral surgery. Take as much time as you need, Jacob. Take care of yourself. Stay safe, healthy and happy...

[@nicholedecker9124]

Love those in n out burger!!! Me too also need them closer to us. We're in Louisiana. Safe travels.

Baby Jaymee (Jaymee Lawton) on Duncan Farmland (at Camelback Road and the Loop 303) by artist John Cerney, created in 1998. Taken down in June 2013, reappeared in Dec. 2020.

Good luck on the wisdom teeth surgery!! I had mine out 2 years ago, remember going to the grocery store 2 days before to get foods I’d be able to eat while I healed, it was mostly my fav puddings, yogurts, jello, and soup broths (mostly chicken and beef), plus the ice cream! I had so much ice cream from both the store and the place that did my surgery as they sent me home with my choice of cold stone ice cream (mainly just ice cream without their fancy fixings). The most annoying part after it was the swelling and numbness (I think they gave me really good pain killers as I don’t remember it being an issue for me). Swelling went down in a day, and numbness took a day and a half to go away. For me it was annoying as since I couldn’t feel my jaw, nor lips and cheeks, I couldn’t tell if my mouth was open enough to eat or drink anything which was annoying as I felt I needed to look into a mirror just to eat. After surgery slowly work back up to harder to chew foods as back there by your teeth will be slightly tender for a while when trying to eat tougher foods.
