[@JoelsTastyRide]

Todd!! Awesome to see this, awesome to be able to welcome you to this channel. Hope you enjoy all these videos, and I hope they inspire you. Have a great day today, thanks so much for the message :)

[@karenwolf5266]

Have watched Marks channels for some time but never realized you have your own channel. I have now been watching your videos in the mornings before work. Gives me much peace with you love of people and nature. I have been a nurse for almost 30 years. If not for the beautiful people I care for and meet, I would have left the profession long ago. I too love learning all I can about others.

[@JoelsTastyRide]

Karen!! Wow what a special message today hey thank you for taking the time to find my channel as well I appreciate the support, I travel with Mark but I also work for him so I appreciate you supporting him as well :-) thank you for sharing a little bit about yourself, wishing you the best today with whatever happens, stay positive, be a light to those around you :-) much love, thanks again for writing me today

[@karenwolf5266]

Joel Bruner thanks for such a wonderful word to me. You are so beautiful and love what you bring to anyone that can hear your word of love. Do all you can to continue to do to teach people the love of the world. Stay safe!

[@tayster55]

Bringing a tear to my eye, Joel. That food, I can almost taste it. Thanks for fabulous explanations. Cheers.

[@JoelsTastyRide]

Chris, wow. Amazing comment man, thank you. I did not exactly want to make the channel a "Food Channel," but as food really is such a big part of how I connect with people (just a common passion, especially in Asia where it seems that 50% of all people on this continent have food as a personal hobby :) :) :) hahah)... it just ends up containing a lot of food. And so, I am happy to see this comment! Because even without specifically trying, it still manages to let you enjoy it in this way, and therefore is successful, even where I wasn't expecting :). and thats great!! So yes, I am happy to see this comment, so cool man, thank you for writing me today!!

[@mraetnts]

@@JoelsTastyRide its not just the food - its how you encounter it. When you come across a farmer and the next scene theyre showing you their land and where it grows? Thats solid. you have a great connection with people and it shows - from appreciating their culture to learning their language (and the dialects and language learning within) its great vids man. Bourdain would be proud, and for sure a fan.

[@booswanger3801]

I love the pride the shop owners have in cooking and explaining their dishes. Home garden grown food is the tastiest. Thanks for another thoughtful and interesting video. Peace and joy to you in your travels 😊

[@JoelsTastyRide]

Hiiii!!! Hope you are well today :-) yes you are so right, this is one of the greatest parts really, being able to show the food would not be so possible if people were not proud for us to eat it right? And wow this lady in particular, her garden was just so high quality, even though it wasn’t so large, wow again just like you said, she was happy to mention that half of the ingredients in the mortar came from her backyard. Beautiful. Have a wonderful day today, thanks for watching, cool to see your name here :-)

Just watching your videos makes it feel that I'm immersing myself with the Thai culture. I've never been there but I'd love to visit someday. I'm beginning to tolerate spicy food lately because of you and Mark. Keep them coming, we need more videos like this. Spread the kindness, it reciprocates. God speed Joel. 👌👌👌☺☺☺

Joel I literally just found your channel. I am going to watch every video and NOT skip the ads. I adore your personality. You're so talented!😊🤗

[@uncleLanLan]

Thank you so much ❤️

[@superfastener]

Hi Joel - Peace be with You! Wonderful video ... from the beginning special camera angle to the many interesting still pics, the quality is mega-professional ! Also, I really appreciate the food scenes. I so envy you being able to converse with the Thai people in the countryside while you enjoy their wonderful home cooking. The mango score was a particular win. FWIW today I bought a medium mango in a US supermarket for about $1 which is a good price as they are in-season. I'm looking forward to part 2 of this series. Yours in Christ! Ron in Ponce Inlet, Florida U.S.A.

[@JoelsTastyRide]

Hi Ron I hope all is well today, I am smiling at the word make a professional, I am definitely still working but wow I really appreciate your support and praise. I think that you do know quite a bit about the food of Thailand, so I know you appreciate this, and I also can see that you have a real respect for people and how everyone should be treated equally, so yes I really do indeed appreciate all of your comments. That is awesome you were able to find some mango at the market, do you know what, thinking about the price though, we do have to remember that the proportions are what is really important, not just the straight up price. For example, I survived here for several years on a salary of $750 a month, and I actually saved money, I felt very blessed, but that is a good example, therefore I guess on roughly the same wages in the USA, I could get five mangoes for one dollar, but I only make 1/5 of the wages that I would were I to live in the US… OK that’s a long message now ha ha I know you understand this already, thanks for humoring me :-)

[@nlwin7789]

Admire your tenacity, endurance, and effort riding long distances and hours documenting at the same time. No wonder you stay in shape, so fit and healthy. I wish I could visit Chiang Mai again. Life is full of uncertainties and all get weaker and slower as you grow older.

[@JoelsTastyRide]

Yooooo! Nyunt! Well man... cool message, I am smiling but hey, its very possible to eat (meals like this, not every day! but several days a week) and have your weight stay the same. Its simple actually! Just, in this case, simple and 'easy' are not the same thing. For example. If you wake up and drink water, have a very simple fruit shake with a spoon of pure coconut oil, then eat one handful of peanuts, do some work writing/editing and 3-4 hours later go to this restaurant and eat all the same food that I ate, come home and again do 3-4 hours work writing/editing, and then finish your day with green tea, lime juice, any flavored water you want... read a adventure story in a book and go to sleep. Thats a great day!!! And then the next day, ride your bicycle 70 miles (120km), have a HUGE bowl of oatmeal or porridge, TONS of fruit, and a GIGANTIC salad with every vegetable under the sun.... do this alternating every other day for a month. I can promise you, you will gain little to no weight at all, you might even lose weight. Ive been this "diet" which is more of just a habit by now, done it for years!

[@MistressLovelyone]

Joel i found you through Mark awhile back and i just love you both, i can see why you are friends. You both bring such positivity, and are smart, humble, friendly and describe everything to a T.

Woa, that's almost 132 miles! I'm lucky to make it up the street and back! That's a big accomplishment! I watch you and Mark eat so much food and I always wondered how you stay so trim. I guess riding a bike everywhere and doing bike rides like this is the reason! The food looks amazing, by the way.

[@JoelsTastyRide]

Hi Sandra great comments today :-) so glad you are enjoying these videos :-) a big big part of the reason that I made this channel, and a big part of the reason that I include all the details is for health related reasons. So I am happy that you are making these notes today. While the cycling does help with metabolism, most of a persons weight loss or weight gain will come from what they eat. Exercise is a great thing, but I think current science puts the number somewhere around 20%. The majority of contributing factors are still 1) what you eat and 2) your genetic predisposition. So on that note, Mark and I are both lucky to have metabolisms suited for large meals however you have to know that both of us are extremely healthy eaters when we are not on camera

[@Mr2holen1]

Hi Joel- following you in your adventures in Northern Thailand. My nephew and niece runs a paper business in Chiang Mai using elephant droppings.

[@JoelsTastyRide]

Hi Jennifer :-) well thank you very much thank you… I have always liked talking to people and now I guess the camera does make me a little bit more nervous actually, because I don’t want to pressure anyone at all, but it is making it fun to actually stop riding the bike just specifically to talk to people! The only downside I have about these long rides is, the pressure is on to finish the ride, I know that I can’t afford to stop too much… And over the years I just get into the habit of going on and on, maybe 100 km without even stopping one time. So having the camera now forces me to focus on what I really want to focus on, which is the people :-) I did stay in a tent actually ha ha I just didn’t record it, I sweated the whole night sleeping back down at low elevation. I should’ve stayed up on that mountain!!

U made me homesick for the philippines.. we have santol there as well..

[@JoelsTastyRide]

Oh yes!! Santol, My friends told me a lot about that… I need to visit the Philippines for the fruit and for the friendliness, those are the two things I know from there very well

[@jinha911]

Amazing, you actually went for the fermented fish sauce. I wonder how that version of som tum you had taste. Mouth watering right now.

[@JoelsTastyRide]

Tens!! Cheers and much love for the comment, I honestly love the fermented fish sauce and I don’t want to eat this dish without it. It did take me about a year, maybe even a year and a half, but now I honestly wouldn’t have it any other way :-)

[@frankng5265]

Nice video. Those mangos look "aroi mak".

[@patrickantwerp1364]

Very nice vlog again Joel, loved it!! It's strange to see Mark Wiens wants to look like you, he tries to grow a beard :-) :-)

[@JoelsTastyRide]

Oh my goodness now that is a first, a very first Patrick Ha ha ha I am laughing dude really, I’m laughing hard right now. :-) Hey thank you for watching both of us, as I do also work for Mark, of course I appreciate when you support him as well

[@tayster55]

Joel. When I helped out with a Pro bike team, The soigneurs recommended a farming product for Chammy shorts, Used on dairy farms for cows nipples! Not sure if you could find that in Issan!

[@JoelsTastyRide]

chris taylor Chris I missed this hilarious and amazing message, wow thank you for the recommendation… Recommendation right? This is so great, I just use Vaseline, plain old Vaseline but, yeah people tell me I should use a specific product like this

[@c.d.640]

Everything looks so good. I just wish that he would have showed us an up close of the sausage so that we could see what was in side

[@JoelsTastyRide]

OK thank you for reminding me, I don’t focus on the details of the meal so much sometimes, I might forget that a lot of people are find me because of Mark’s videos and they think that I will do the same thing that he does with the meals… But OK yes the sausages are awesome and I will remember to show the details of closer next time, sorry about that, and thank you for taking the time to comment :-)

[@c.d.640]

Joel, You are doing a GREAT job!!!!

[@WandererNirvana]

That was an advanced level of Papaya Salad (my sai pom shirot- no msg👍🏼). You are a real Thai food expert!

[@JoelsTastyRide]

Beautiful comment, ha ha OK so you understand some dishes in Thailand for sure :-) I like this comment

[@cozyslor]

Joel, loving the soundtracks (along with the vids). Saw that old vid of the Weezer cover (big Weezer fan here). Hope you're still working on your Axe along with your biking. Peace.
