I Got Stood Up

[@juliaolivia398]

Not sure I’d leave my backpack or, especially, my pup alone while using the bathroom. You are more trusting than I.

[@SaraMC-v3b]

Looking at you from the outside, you have accomplished SO much!! (Monsieur French Citizen!) Please enjoy your success, your life, and don't worry about what more you should/could be doing. Certainly do more if you wish to, but don't be so hard on yourself!

[@JaySwanson]

Thank you! I'm definitely my own harshest critic

[@contentmarketingcommute]

Thanks for joining the podcast mate! Love the video. Was so cool interviewing you on the bus - think there will be a bunch of B2B marketers out there interested to hear your tips on KZbin and growing an audience!

[@pnwesty7174]

Cooper is so damned adorable.

[@JaySwanson]

Fact

[@inespagan940]

Loved the music and transitions, and Cooper 💗

[@JaySwanson]

Thanks!

[@ADAtrips]

It was good to see moving around Paris. When I come to Paris (Maybe March). I wont feel lost… Aloha

[@carolbrenner3121]

Blessings and grace your way ❤❤❤

[@tsozbk]

Wooow, what a day for you!😃 I had that type of day on Wednesday and it was quite miserable and enjoyable at the same time. Sometimes I get this joy of running in the city, but not all the time😃

[@JaySwanson]

Haha I feel you!

[@SanTM]

Ooh Bluebird. Frequence is a few roads over is also pretty good. Lot of vinyl

[@PokhrajRoy.]

5:07 “COOPER WAS HERE.”

[@PokhrajRoy.]

Omg love a commuting podcast. Sounds like great fun (apart from maybe tricky logistics).

[@JaySwanson]

Yeah you should give it a listen!

[@PokhrajRoy.]

I love an adventurous day myself. Running around was my favourite thing pre-pandemic.

[@JaySwanson]

🥂

[@ATLIEN333]

Yes!! I was just about to leave a comment about eating the pizza with a fork and knife. I saw that in my research for my first trip to Paris. I actually had pizza one night while in Paris and as they say when in Rome I made a feeble attempt. It finally hit me I'm an American and we eat pizza with our hands. So I was glad to see that you picked up the pizza and took a bite. 😋

[@JaySwanson]

Pizza is meant to be eaten by hand. Fork and knife is nonsense =P

[@dccoulthard]

Well, the paradox might be that your want to be productive, but in Paris, it seems like the idea of being productive is being relaxed.

[@JaySwanson]

😆

[@andyshacks7812]

My word what a busy day - bet you slept well that night !

[@JaySwanson]

Boy did I

[@rhuxley5130]

When my girlfriend saw I was watching ur vids she eventually said " I don't understand why ur listening to travel guide that loves everything you hate 🤷🏻‍♂️😂. When I asked her what she meant, she reminded me that I HATE morning people,gyms, the idea running, effing coffee & especially bright ass places & spaces that don't sell booze. Lol so I appreciate you doing a video that ends in a joint that has alcohol and low lighting🧔🏻👍🏻

[@JaySwanson]

😆😆 There's a lot more booze to come. Just gotta figure out HOW. I used to be a total creature of the night so it's easy to stay out a bit too late

[@Paul_C]

Was that a surprise, the coffee in the mug? At 3:17

[@JaySwanson]

Always ☕

[@RealStAndrews]

Can I assume you can take your dog to all cafes and bars in Paris? This certainly isn’t the case in the UK, far from it !

[@JaySwanson]

Pretty much yeah. Especially if they're smaller.

[@mlomarechal6877]

Cooper est un vrai petit parisien : métro - boulot - dodo !

[@JaySwanson]

😆😆 J'ai dit la même chose hier

[@mlomarechal6877]

@@JaySwanson Désolée, j'ai un métro de retard 🙃

[@SaraMC-v3b]

Hi Jay! I'm turning 50 next week. I've checked all the boxes (happily married, healthy kid, career, and -- not to brag--- not one, but TWO adorable black and white dogs! I'm still asking all the same questions you are..have I done enough? Am I doing enough? I think those questions are always swirling around, despite one's age or how much you have or haven't accomplished.

[@JaySwanson]

Yes! It seems to be a question we continue to ask ourselves as we go through life, though perhaps with different answers

[@debracoulter1250]

Today my anxiety was so bad! Your camera or phone setting out as you walk past….leaving it behind. Getting on the Metro and your phone was outside. Lol 😂 You’re a seasoned veteran! I shouldn’t worry!

[@JaySwanson]

Haha don't worry! If you're seeing the video it means nothing bad happened during filming... right? =P

[@PokhrajRoy.]

1:04 Yikes. Low-key felt like someone kicked my face.

[@jennifer_u]

I love how Jay refers to Paris as “town” 😂 Also I feel like regardless of where you are in life there’s always the nagging thought of shouldn’t I be doing this or that or whatever. It’s kind of unavoidable, because we are influenced by the world around us. Cooper is such a good boy 💕

[@JaySwanson]

So many influences we aren't even aware of

[@jessicabracho8509]

The Cooper sticker!❤

[@PokhrajRoy.]

7:23 I live for the fumbles lol

[@JaySwanson]

😆

[@ruarifinn]

Who was it that said most people live lives of quiet desperation? Who says any of us get “it” figured out?

[@DavidCAdams]

Thoreau

[@JaySwanson]

Thoreau says we figure it out?

[@agyos]

You can get fined on the métro?? (I’m loving these daily’s….)

[@JaySwanson]

Yep! She forgot her Navigo at home

[@SanTM]

Podcasting in a bus? That is SO East London

[@toastsandwich2862]

how are you not using the 24h time yet!!

[@JaySwanson]

I use a solid mix

[@susangalpin4967]

I liked this video's tempo!

[@JaySwanson]

Thank you!

[@maxrimas9853]

Where can I listen to the podcast?

[@JaySwanson]

Link in the description 👍 My episode won't come out for another month I don't think

[@rob7819]

I hope the drink at the end was an actual date?Fingers crossed

[@RH1812]

A Grand Day Out. A man and his dog

[@JaySwanson]

We roll well together (until there's something smelly to investigate, and then it's chaos 😆)

[@PokhrajRoy.]

The title of this video is why I’m usually up late at night lol

[@JaySwanson]

It happens!

[@michaelbrennan5433]

Whats wrong with Cooper right hind leg?

[@JaySwanson]

Nothing, he just has a little hop sometimes! I've checked - thanks for your concern though!

[@NickAlexTheo]

1m23sec in the most random, free Durex ad in the history of YT occurs.

[@JaySwanson]

😆

[@sjmsark]

You left us hanging:) Fine? Why did she get fined, inquiring minds want to know.

[@JaySwanson]

I know! Sorry - she forgot her navigo and decided to jump the turnstile - got caught at her transfer - got a double fine for not having a method of payment on her. Brutal.

[@SarahGold]

I felt the sleepy Cooper deeply on the metro.

[@JaySwanson]

He knows nothing is going to happen for a good while 😆

[@pji1979]

Is that a date at the end, Jay? 😁

[@rob7819]

Let's hope it's not another "friend".

[@np8173]

I don't know what's going on with youth (I say that as Gen X & the assumption that the podcaster is not) these days, but the whole respect for another's time has just disappeared. That and responding to people either in text(!) or email. It's like "I'll get to you when I feel like it. And if I don't, meh." I'm at a loss for words. When I grew up, you had only so many rings from the phone to answer it and this was before answering machines. It wasn't "I'll answer or respond when I want" because you didn't know who was calling. I think this will come back on them when they need something from someone else. Just my two cents.

[@JaySwanson]

True, but to be fair, the phone would ring a few times a day, and you either had time for a short chat or a long one. Likewise, letter writing required less commitment. These days, you can get messages from 5, 10, 15 different friends in a single day. Some texts, some voice notes. It can take 1-2 hours just to reply to them all. One can't be expected to reply to everyone as quickly, or to jump at message when there are now so many more people vying for our attention. So ultimately, social media/tech is probably the one to blame for this, not Gen Z... just a thought!

[@np8173]

My point was really around the fact that the podcaster asked to interview you or agreed to be interviewed by you and basically ghosted you. Incredibly disrespectful of your time and energy. @@JaySwanson A quick text, email, call, something saying "Sorry, can't make it our agreed upon meeting" is the least that a thoughtful person can do.

[@np8173]

Respect is respect. It doesn't move with the times.@@jyc313

[@JaySwanson]

very true, a heads up would have definitely been appreciated

[@carolbrenner3121]

Hexagon last time with your dad?

[@JaySwanson]

Was it last time? Maybe when I was filming the 20 in 20

[@carolbrenner3121]

20 and 20

[@amyspeers8012]

I don’t think there’s a set time to have everything figured out. I changed my life at 50 and my husband is currently changing his work life at 55. You do you. You are looking and sounding happy. Give Cooper a rub.

[@JaySwanson]

Change is the only constant 🥂

[@PokhrajRoy.]

4:33 I mean, that’d be worrisome after World War 2 or something. Now, it’s ehhh idk I’m still alive, in a manner of speaking. Lol that was so morbid

[@skooz86]

We like you a lot and think you're great, but you know Cooper is the star, right?

[@JaySwanson]

sigh. I know. I really should get him an agent

[@michaelbrennan5433]

Does "she" have a name ? Bad habit to refer to people next you by pronouns instead of their name. Maybe "she" is keeping a low profile due to the video? Shouldn't assume

[@rob7819]

Let's hope its a date and not a "friend".Methinks Mr Swanson needs to start dating at some point.

[@lidarandolph8322]

I agree. Jay seems to ignore mentioning who he is with. I can understand if they don't want to be on camera, but usually it's someone that briefly appears in a shot, so it's only courtesy to mention who's joining him.

[@JaySwanson]

Sometimes you take a quick shot in the moment and you forget to give broader context, like who you're sitting with, why they got fined on the metro, or double fined - also interesting elements of the story that can get forgotten without malicious intent but simply because you're trying to be concise. I'll keep improving on all fronts

[@ac8907]

Hi, you should bye Cooper dog’s shoes.🩷😢👟👟👟👟

He has them for icy walks ☃️
