It’s scary. I thought drinking couldn’t kill you until your late 30s or your 40s unless you drank too much one time and got alcohol poisoning. Nope, it can destroy your body much quicker than that. A guy I worked with almost died at 27 from his chronic drinking. To be fair, his gf said he’d been drunk everyday since he was 16, but still 27 is so young. He lived, and is doing great, he can just never drink again. Likely he won’t live till old age due to the damage however. It was a major reality check. I had been drinking pretty heavily since my college days (like getting drunk 3-4 nights a week) till up till recently, drinking probably a handle and two 30 racks every month. Since he almost died I’ve cut down on my drinking a lot. I probably have 30 drinks a month now.

Beach week is crazy, they put kegs on the buses that go up and down the road that parallels the boardwalk. At least it was like that in 1995 lol.

[@trel4504]

Damn bro channel 5 is awesome. I get history lessons, awareness to current events, and funny jokes!

[@Bee_Jellyfish]

Thank you for all you say around minute 13:00 on drugs. My father has been on the streets using in SoCal since I was 9 I’m 41 now. And seeing the humans around me be cool with alcohol use in excess vs the unempathic attitude towards anyone who goes to drugs. “welp don’t do drugs then” it’s so cold and so hypocritical. Thank you for articulating this so well.

[@shannond2129]

There’s nothing like a jersey shore summer and I stand by that. Many amazing memories. Surprisingly only been to Ocean City once before, mine were spent mostly in Cape May and Wildwood, sometimes Seaside.

His ability to be so self aware yet still make an interesting-to-watch segment is nothing short of art

[@amandamandy3970]

it's interesting to see the stark difference in tone between this documentary and the last two. i really appreciate how andrew gives a great amount of respect to topics as serious as the things going on in kensington and san francisco and saves the humor for a more lighthearted setting like ocean city. it shouldnt be hard to do that but yknow, youtubers are youtubers i guess... also, i grew up in somers point which is right across the other bridge going into ocean city and that bridge also has a liquor store immediately to the side the second you get off the bridge and into town lmao

[@DemDoolies]

Omg that clip with your cousins was so adorable, love seeing kids just being kids without giving a damn

[@sarahrichards1281]

As a South Jersey local it is important to note that right before all the bridges into OC, there are a good number of large liquor stores. So a lot of tourists from Philly and NY will stop there to pick up all their party supplies for the weekend. So yeah there is no bars or liqour licenses in OC, but plenty still drink.

[@gatsu8634]

The problem isn't tourists it's crackheads loitering outside the convenience store drinking malt liquor all day. You move the malt liquor out of walking distance of your town and suddenly transients aren't so interested anymore.

[@PSUBreno14]

The very first store on the boardwalk sells Yetis. Guess what those are for?

[@HASHBAR710]

good to know 💯

[@suspicioussucculent]

Been to the US once in my life (and funnily in ocean city in that time) and I just wanted to comment that we got shit tons of alcohol in these stores which makes it kinda ironic.

[@yungfriedoe4952]

I just came out of the hospital 2 weeks ago for trying to end my life by driving my car in to a pole while black out drunk... I never wanna feel like that again and plan to stay clean for the rest of my time on earth. The coincident of you guys posting about alcohol was very weird. Thank you for your dedication to provide non-bias perspectives on every situation.

[@YABORGHINI]

i hope and pray that you stay strong my dude. it is possible that you might feel like that in the near future (i hope not) please seek help as soon as possible. talk to your friends and family, having a support system will be a huge help trust me. im glad that you are alive, stay strong!

[@JL-gg5ib]

I used to work with this guy and I started drinking 1 beer on the way home everyday. From then on I drank a 6 pack of tall boy bud lights every night before bed for 3 years and I’m 1 year clean. I used weed as a replacement and now I don’t need anything to sleep. But I’ll never forget how hard it was to quit. Physically and mentally challenging.

[@jacoblunchbox9499]

never stop doing what you do. the coverage youve been doing the last few months has been incredible and very important

[@ultra5612]

Hey Andrew, have been watching your videos for the longest time and I love your style of journalism. How you cover any topic is just fun and interesting to watch. Please keep up the frequency of uploads as you have been doing lately and this channel will be very massive because nobody trusts normal media to give us an honest view of what's really happening in America.I never want to see this channel die.❤

Tomorrow marks my 3 years sober from alcohol. Thank you for making this video alot of people think of booze being totally fine, but it can and will destroy your life. Thanks andrew!

[@LFshlevin]

lmao loser cant handle a drink

[@frieda9745]

congrats!!!

[@Drax514]

Yeah it lead Andrew to raping and assaulting multiple women. I wonder if Andrew still doesn't drink?

just got home from an 11 hour shift… this is exactly what i needed

Love watching this video 11.5 months sober! Love from Miami!

[@Lattejones]

i was a user of opiates and i have friends who are alcoholics and its amazing the differnece in perception to people hearing about the different addictions. its "cool" to be a heavy drinker when your young. we need to change these perceptions

[@mickym.6711]

Well drunks don't usually break into your house to steal the TV off your wall or shoot up junk that rots off their flesh in the middle of the day. So there's that.

[@riot8ap]

I have family there and had a blast going to the boardwalk when we were kids. There is a monster liquor store just before the bridge to OC.

[@sethc4758]

i dont think any shirtless man or next episode preview mentioned that ...

[@timw4432]

Thanks! Such a nice break from the heavy previous episodes. More good, light hearted stuff please!

[@JordanToler-d4t]

born and raised in south jersey and this is not only spot on accurate and amazingly poignant reporting, but just a good time to see my towns represented online kudos Andrew

[@buzzyb13]

My transient brother in Christ was spitting that wisdom, man. Bro was finely tuned in while somehow also being completely tuned out, my best wishes to that gentleman. 😂

[@sanford360]

I love how your content is evolving and the frequency that you drop new stuff, keep freaking killing it Andrew!

[@PeterYacono]

I can see your processes evolve, Andrew. It's reflected in your work too. Nice stuff.

[@HelpfulHarry]

THE MOST POWERFUL-MEANINGFUL VIDEO YOU'VE MADE BRO

[@lilgoldenbuddy]

Lived about 45 min from Ocean City my whole life. Was the place families would go for vacation to avoid the bigger party towns like Wildwood and Seaside Heights. Place is still that way. Glad to see Channel 5 doing such impactful work. Interesting stuff!

[@ronaldinho4eva1]

I really liked this one. Really got to see more personality in Andrew's narration. More humor and lighthearted compared to his usual stuff. Sometimes it's necessary to take it easy about life.

[@OFFROADOVERDRIVE]

I love channel 5 but I hate how a KZbinr is the most unbiased and reliable source of information and news

[@P3SIPredator]

No officials are stepping up 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@NickCageDrippp]

I love channel 5 but he def isnt the only source of unbiased news just dont follow mainstream networks owned by the people they are reporting on

[@adamplentl5588]

Andrew has an overwhelmingly left bias and always has. Not sure where you're getting that he isn't biased.

[@bumfuk]

He's Definitely biased, he let's his opinion be known

[@irockuroll60]

He ain’t unbiased. He is left leaning for sho

[@No_cia]

The Andy Griffith Show theme song remix playing in the background....perfect.

[@bobthop]

this is insanely quality content, you deserve the fame here brother. good work.

[@Flatlanderhikes_]

I’m from Ocean City, there are underground bars throughout the island. The Mayor of the town is heavily involved. This needs to be investigated deeper.

[@HydroInTheBack]

Bet it beats waiting for an hour in line at the OD

[@emu_warrior]

don't NARC on us bro, we're making trillions with our under ground speakez's all over the city, especially under the boardwalk. you rat, you'll get shat

[@RabidDisposition]

Who cares if It stays out of the public eye? You can't handle people having freedom?;

[@Flatlanderhikes_]

@@RabidDisposition dude I don’t care at all, I just think it would add more to the discussion that the town isn’t as “family friendly” as it seems to be, there is also a massive drug problem at the high school, rich kids and prescription drugs. Not is all as it seems.

[@afrospammer]

Congrats on the expansion of the channel! Really happy for it, people need more of this journalism...

[@CarterMontana-u3n]

Gosh Andrew, you’re seriously the best, and watching you with your nephews was the cutest thing I ever did see 💖 watching you grow throughout the years and always remain you and true to who you are is just a beautiful thing. Keep on keeping on

[@andresjaramillo6584]

I smiled and shed a tear almost just at the fact you made a spanish channel! I fw you so heavy! from one Andres/andrew to another lol

[@HuskyType]

I hit the thumbs up before the video, cause I know my boy Andrew is going to drop 1000% journalistic integrity on every story. This is what our tax dollars deserve, Channel Five all day!

[@dudeguy7347]

what do your tax dollars have to do with Channel Five?

[@HuskyType]

@@dudeguy7347My point is we should receive real unbiased news reports from all media sources as tax paying citizens that have a real steak in the economy of this country, yet both cable news and print media are all bought and paid for to the highest bidder. We have just a handful of trusted news sources like Andrew with actual journalistic integrity willing to talk to people on the ground without cuts or edits or fear of sponsorship intimidation. Channel 5 should be the standard of in-depth analysis and coverage for all news stories.

[@YoureAllBots]

You are THE best journalist of our time man. Keep it up.

[@Sweatyclams]

Lived an hour from OC and went every summer. Countless fond memories

[@MVequalsPY]

There's something to be said for sensible inhibition when the rest of the world is going crazy on destructive consumption. Good work as always Andrew.

[@bigt763]

As a Brit who used to visit the area quite often, there's been many times I have been completely hammered in Ocean City. There is a liquor store on just about every main bridge into town! I adore Ocean City though, everyone I've ever met there has been tremendously welcoming to me, except one dude who accused me of being Australian in Wawa -.-

[@erickely1790]

I don't believe you.

[@wfox4418]

About being hammered in Ocean City, the liquor stores right next to the bridges, or being British? Because I’ve been going to Ocean City my entire life- you can absolutely drink in your own home- also if you’re a member of certain clubs. There are in fact liquor stores right on the other side of the 9th & 34th Street bridges (that are some of the most successful liquor stores in the country). I cannot, however, confirm that this guy is British nor, sadly, if he was ever accused of being Australian in Wawa.

[@ErickEly]

​@@wfox4418 I'm only joking. I grew up on the island year-round - my family is fourth generation OC. The guy in the original comment is indeed a Brit and a very good friend of mine. I cannot confirm the legitimacy of the australian wawa comment, though I was likely there when it was said. I will say he's lying, just to stir the pot.

[@0rangebl0ss0m]

@@erickely1790kids are getting hammered every beach week for the end of senior year, or spring break of college if they can’t afford Florida. I’m from Maryland.

[@4coffey]

⁠@@0rangebl0ss0myea! Ocean city is the best for senior week because if you were caught underage you just got a fine instead of wildwood or where ever else you actually had to ho to court for underage drinking! Ive seen people super HAMMERED in OC people drink int he beach just used typical red solo cups! Night in Venice is a huge boat party where everyone is hammered!

[@LittleRedRubberDuck]

The conversation with the kids at the start is just hilarious :,D

[@ebercondrell6603]

A good friend of mine lost his adult son to alcoholism this year. It can be as terrible as the rest if over used. Thank you for covering that honestly.

Man i love Andrew's coverage for everything. Such an artist

Amazing, loved the use of the ice cream truck music to tie the two episodes together. Keep up the amazing work ❤
