Congratulations on 3rd place great effort, it looked like you had great fun. The people of York, have really taken to you and embraced you. Your love for the UK is so genuine and overwhelming, the feeling is mutual. You are a great young man and a true embassador for your country, we welcome you with open arms. Always remain humble and true to yourself.

[@gdok6088]

Awesome to see you being welcomed back so warmly in York. They obviously love you Joel, just like your followers do. Your expression of contentment and happiness while walking under a blue sky and the beautiful green trees flanking the river Ouse, in the final minutes of this vlog, speaks volumes about your deepening sense of becoming an honorary Brit 🇬🇧

[@Neil_TheShiningMile]

Fair play to the YO1 Radio guys. Such a lovely team for making Joel feel so welcome.

[@thegroovetube3247]

Dozy old sod of a DJ. "I always say U.S. of A. because of that comedian". 'U.S. .. AND.. A.' was what Borat said. And also carrying on that lazy post-war American stereotype of Brits having terrible teeth. In fact British dental health is now better than across the pond.

[@Neil_TheShiningMile]

@@thegroovetube3247 I hardly think confusing ‘and’ and ‘of’ constitutes an error worthy of mention. He was, after all, referencing a film 17 years old. As for the bad teeth remark, it’s a well-known stereotype. Not 100% accurate per-se but it was a lighthearted remark. My lasting opinion of the DJ was that he and the team treated Joel well and gave him a nice couple of days that Joel will remember. That’s what matters.

[@peterpain6625]

@@Neil_TheShiningMile Considering the work a british colleague had done to her and her families teeth i think that stereotype is only valid for "the older people". But ok, they did look like horses so there had to be something done ;)

Felt your emotions mate. York and UK have stole a piece of your heart

[@user-gy1im9mc9u]

The people at radio station and people in York have really treated Joel very well. You could see he was overcome with emotion toward the end of day. He is very exceptional young man. The Joel you see in videos is the same person you meet face to face. Wish all the best in all he does.

[@paulharvey9149]

Looks like we better start calling him Yorkie, folks - or would you prefer Pudding, Joel?!! But you know, what makes this video different from almost all the others you've done since you left Germany is - you're with friends: folk who know where all the best places to eat and meet and drink and be merry are - that even take in a few of the sights; and you look so much happier! Still knackered from all your travelling; but able to just be, just relax and just enjoy, and not have to worry whether you're in the right places, or where they might be or how to find them! I was feeling sorry for you up in Glasgow - you seemed so lost and alone, and barely even scratched the surface of all that you could have seen and done, there - but, that simply means you'll have to come back and do it all again - maybe at a time when there isn't a pop festival going on elsewhere in the city, with all the folks that would otherwise have been in the pubs and clubs...! Well done York and especially, well done, YO1 Radio - we'll make sure he's rested enough and sober enough to win the race for you next time!!

[@aprilhiggins9459]

Local knowledge is needed in each place he goes to.......York had the dragon race on so easier to get involved and he had been there before . Probably if he came back he would have more of a network built up in each place. Glasgow was tricky because he was expecting backlash I think from his Edniburgh trip video last year... He didt get any backlash and if he had asked the locals where to go for a pint and he was doing a travel vlog I dont think he would have been short of people to chat too......But you dont know until you know! Going up North to the Highlands with a group that are doing the hostel trail place to place visiting pubs enroute would have been a good vlog......and much more fun than a bus tour but he didnt know until he tried it. He sounded like he had a good experience in Scotland...

[@PokhrajRoy.]

OMG OMG OMG it’s finally here! The Radio in York x Joel Reunion is what we’re here for.

[@michaelhurley7001]

Last year I said a radio star is born...How right I was....well done Joel😊....

[@pheart2381]

I love how when you were on air at York you were being yourself.

[@Herzschreiber]

Wow! After watching your German adventures I am now surprised to see how much happens in UK! I guess one should never underestimate the language barrier, right? You're having much more contacts over there, and the interview in the radio station must have been much fun! Glad to see you are doing so well! Keep it on, Your "German grumpy Granny" 😊

[@lw3158]

Just my opinion of course, but in my personal experience, Germany is not a welcoming group, no warm and fuzzies. The Brits on the other, a very fun lot. Sure no language barrier helps but just the overall vibe of the people is so nice.

[@Herzschreiber]

@@lw3158 I agree. But my idea with the language barrier has a reason: Joel himself mentioned, that he simply was to shy to start talking to Germans. It is true, we do usually not start conversations with strangers, but if they do, most of us are happy to help and chat.

[@pauloneill9880]

Germans have become deeply respectful of personal space , maybe historical reasons, but today's Germans wait to engage then open up with that graet German humour.

[@weedle30]

Me thinks Joel is an emotional wreck! Aww so nice he was made to feel at home in Yorkshire but Joel, most of us here in GB “don’t take life too seriously” when it comes to having fun at outdoor events like shows, fetes, events etc! We love mucking about and getting “involved” - it’s all about having fun in the “work to live” way we do it. But so glad you are seeing the “true GB” - it’d not such a bad place after all! 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿❤️❤️

I think you've found your favourite place in Britain Joel - York. You've been back for a second year. It is a lovely city with fantastic history, near to beautiful countryside and a lovely coast as well and still only just over two hours by train from London. And here's me praising York, a born and bred Lancastrian!

[@Richardssong18]

That brought a tear to my eye just because you look so happy and relaxed and overwhelmed with proudness and achievement. I think York and you are great together. I hope your enjoying your time in the UK and I hope maybe you visit some other places another year because there's so much In the UK. You would love St Ives in Cornwall southwest England.

I live in Norwich which is interesting historically and architecturally due to its proximity to Europe and the invading empires over the centuries but I also grew up in Great Yarmouth just down the road which is one of the oldest seaside resorts/ fishing industries in the world and is a very very unique experience to say the least.. even to most Brits!
