Vlogmas Day 28 | For Auld Lang Splurt, My Dear

[@michellewilmes2821]

i laugh everytime i think about gigi telling tyler not to play the piano .

[@caraevans7105]

Me too! 😂

[@carlamengele1215]

My hubby came home and was like, “why are you yelling at the tv?” LOL. I replied, “I’m playing a game!”

[@malisakenney6699]

LOL ME TOOO

[@Chelbsn]

I don't know if you two realize the impact you have on so many lives with your Vlogmas posts. Thank you for continuing to spread your holiday cheer!

[@jessicacollins9033]

So true!!!

[@heatherkruger]

Amen ❤️❤️

[@amandastone348]

Right!! When they said, “no one’s watching at this point”. We are all watching and laughing and joining in. So thankful for their vlogs

[@jessicacollins9033]

@@amandastone348 100%!!!!

[@kathleenwood2921]

Indeed, you guys need to know that these Vlogmas videos are a highlight for SOooo many people during the Holiday season. Thank you for continuing to share your holidays with us. ❤

[@maryjojaggar9254]

Jessica at Meijer saying, ‘But we really don’t need anything…unless I see something we need.’ Classic!!💜

[@nattyfbaby_]

When their workspace is nicer than my apartment 😅

[@jenfarina1892]

Haha same!

[@ericahastings9169]

Same!

[@dindog22]

same

[@cassiegirl77]

Right?! 😂

[@pryak6581]

Doing KZbin and maintaining several sponsorship partners over years pays well. A successful KZbinr I watch disclosed her YT income before doing any sponsorships, uploading 2-3 videos (vlogs) a week over nearly a decade, and she said she made well over 10-15k a month + her full-time job income?! Naturally she quit her main job and now does YT fulltime with adding sponsored content to her repertoire. Influencers do work hard, don't get me wrong, but 10-15k a month hard, I don't know. :D

[@AngieWade]

Tyler’s advice on piano lessons resonated with me, but for reading. My son did not appear to be a strong reader and did not get good scores for reading. I was surprised because he always loved books and being read to. I figured he would love learning to read but he didn’t. Until we started taking him to the library and letting him pick out his own books. When he started reading what interested him, those scores rose very quickly. He just wasn’t interested as much in the required reading so he wasn’t putting forth the effort. 😉

[@lisaluft520]

My daughters loved to read until they hit middle school and had to read certain books. When my oldest was in high school she said once that school ruined reading for her. How sad is that? Luckily they are both back to enjoying reading.

[@carielynn6647]

My favorite part of the vlogs are when you two are together.. especially the end of the day chat sessions. It’s so refreshing to see two people genuinely happy and in love. You can tell you guys are best friends! Love to see it! ❤

[@jens7872]

I have to say Jammy Awards does have a better ring to it than Jabby awards 😂

[@Monkeyluva311]

I am of the opinion where I will ALWAYS know them as Jammy Awards and these videos can never be too long….do runner ups if necessary. I do not care 😂 I can watch you while I sew my next quilt. Which, PS, thank you for vlogmas for providing me something to listen to while I finished my first quilt, my dad’s, who I almost lost this year. I should’ve given you guys a side shout out on the quilting label 🤣 continuing watching the video now 😬🤣

[@heatherkruger]

When playing splurt and Tyler says, "Depending on the day!" 😂😂😂 omg I laughed out loud. I adore you two!

[@Nilesedge]

Splurt looks super fun! Well done for not saying the ‘d’ word we were all thinking 😂😂

[@lanaea8735]

I really do appreciate y’all doing this. It makes me feel like I’m apart of your family and y’all really have helped me with the holiday grief kicking my butt. ❤ I always told my dogs when they’d do that… I could be a robber and you’d still be snooozing 😂😂

[@joannsalas]

I was crying laughing watching you two play that game. Thank you for all the laughs and genuine fun all this month!

[@kaitrooney3523]

I think the reason I enjoy vlogmas so much is getting to see the real Tyler and Jessica. Of course we’ll never truly know y’all, but I see so much of my own relationship in you two - it is so apparent that you two are best friends and true partners in life. I just appreciate getting a glimpse into your awesome family ❤ thank you for sharing with us!

[@awreckleftuntold]

I remember for years I wanted to take vocal lessons. Finally after probably 12 or so years, I found someone. We went through the weirdest vocal practices and I'm like what is this? I recorded my coach doing it, went home and practiced every day. Then one day I told her "can we play Adele? I really like some of these songs and her range is awesome" and she went with it! We practiced her songs and broke everything down. Then I remember one day I was at home, singing a song I loved and I hit a note I've never been able to hit before and I was BLOWN away. I was so proud of myself. I think it's all about balance! If I didn't do those "weird" vocal practices, I don't think it would have been the same! But it was awesome she was willing to compromise and practice songs I loved, while also doing the basics 👍 man, I miss vocal lessons!

[@cassiegirl77]

Y’all’s laughter is so contagious! Love watching y’all! 😂

[@aileenbell6750]

I am in awe of people like Tyler who are self-taught pianists. Tyler, you are too modest. I am an Ok piano player, but not self-taught at all. 😜 I had a fabulous piano teacher who inspired me. I love your advice…kids need to play what fills up their soul! ❤️ Also…game time made me lauuuuugh cryyyyyy

[@shaynaleann1054]

Can not wait for the Jammie awards!! You look absolutely gorgeous in the part where ur at the store. Is there anything Tyler can't do or doesn't know? Cooking, baking, music, dance, theater, history, technology, etc All the time learning somethin 😊😊

[@jennifershank5622]

My most favorite part of Vlogmas is when y'all sit down at the end for your chat session. Getting excited for the podcast 🙌

[@kerriewheeler1079]

If Jessica and Tyler had an Airbnb, I’d be first in line!!❤❤Tyler.. I love listening to him play piano, because you can see the passion he has for those keys😊❤

[@amandastone348]

Oh my gosh, Jessica said they have debated purchasing an investment space. I’ve never done Airbnb, but I would totally rent an Airbnb from them!

[@millylarz]

Something made of wood containing a P 👀😳, then Jessica laughs... atta girl, then the D question😂, I can't🤣🤣🤣😏

[@chellecopley67]

omgosh ya'll, I am enjoying this vlogmas so much! We lost one of our sweet pugs mid November and it has been really difficult to get 'in the spirit' these vlogs are one of the things that literally can make me LOL. rub your sweet 4 legged babies belly a lil extra for us and our sweet Amelia. We still have her sister Sophie but it is still so quiet and the world is just a bit dimmer.

[@rosiebess2875]

Watching you 2 play makes me realize I can’t think on a dime after a long day!!! You guys did really good 😊

[@jazoyler]

I love how Jess’s office looks so much like the decor in her home I didn’t realize she was in a different space outside her home for months 😂❤️😘

[@thejammiestjam]

I mean, Jess and Tyler shouting random words at each other is why I'm here.

[@mkcustard]

Did I mention I made the spice cake and caramel icing for Christmas and my fam finished it off for breakfast the next day? Major hit 🎉

[@jenfarina1892]

Bought Splurt when Jess talked about it a week or so ago so I could bring it to Christmas. We were a bit slower due to trying to include my 94 year old grandpa who's a bit slower these days, but can't wait to play it in another group of people soon! !

[@ChocolateTeapot93]

"Something that fits in your hand beginning with a d" 😂

[@karincope3019]

Who else in January will binge watch years gone by Vlogmases ?? I can’t be the only one .

[@erinlynn061]

Not me excited about the delirious end of vlog chat based on your thumbnail 😆😂😆

[@jessicapeterson8832]

That framed Aladdin script is the sweetest!!! 😍

[@seraswhereabouts]

"Chewing Gum in Singapore!" omg that got me. Thanks guys, from a Singaporean 😊

[@LinaCT25]

I loved the work space tour. Five Guys story resonated with me.

[@paytongeorge1]

I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again. Tyler & Jess are the comfort food of KZbin. Always good, always heart warming 🥹

[@TMCEH]

Made the Buffalo chickpea wraps today (minus the hummus and add tiny amount of blue cheese crumbles). Zero complaints. Thanks for the easy dinner idea

[@alma4teal]

I love how clean your desk looks with only the necessities. I’d recommend storing your highlighters upside down so that the ink travels down.

[@Dreamcatcher.925]

Hi Jessica I'm so excited for the jammy awards. I've been with you since 2017! Love you ❤️

[@jesuisaimeex]

So proud you both held your tongue 😂

[@Eden_Rivers]

You two playing together is so cute. Going from "poop/oop" to you both stalled by naming a body of water ... Dying. So fun.

[@betsychesnutt3178]

The second you said “I can swing out the tv and watch the news” I thought of the dinner party episode of The Office! “I finally broke down and got a plasma screen tv.” 😂😂😂 if you have not watched the outtakes to that episode, I highly recommend it! 😂😂

[@shelleysteeves5921]

Jessica’s answer of “Ohio” was right too😂❗️🇨🇦

[@jillianj310]

I was looking for this comment 😂. I think in her head she was thinking syllables! Lol

[@MichellePetermann]

I really hope you two realize how lucky you are. I worked FT when my kids were young & my parents never helped. I definitely didn't get to get my nails done or work out run errands during the day. I also worked long days, 5 days a week. 52 weeks a year. You live a very charmed life.

[@missribbon]

I really am gonna miss watching this while I eat my breakfast every day

[@Coralsmakeup]

I genuinely love “welcome to the cutting board”! I feel like I’ve been craving these segments all vlogmas. It’s just not vlogmas without cooking with the brauns!

[@paigereeves]

Change it to the Jabby awards 😂😂

[@sashaminium]

Yay! Another self-taught piano player here! I started out with just figuring out song melodies, and I eventually “graduated” to writing a musical as part of my high school graduation project. It can actually be fun and very rewarding to teach yourself how to play musical instruments. P.S. This is my first year following Vlogmas every day, and I’ve really enjoyed it. Thank you for all of the hard work you’ve both put into this, and I’m looking forward to going back and binging past Vlogmases ❤

[@ashleymjoness]

I could see the immediate inappropriate thought when you said “something that fits in your hand containing a D” 😂

[@beautyandbeyond347]

Tyler teaching himself piano and thinking so fast during splurt... he's totally GT!

[@leaheiden2436]

I was DYING with you guys playing the game!! I was 1000% shouting at the screen. Definitely going to have to pick up that game!

[@RAE.ofSunshine]

I cried from laughing the entire time watching you play splurt. Can’t wait to buy it!!!!!!!!!!!

[@conniechats6160]

I love that framed Aladdin music. So cute!

[@kryskay989]

You guys playing games are hilarious!!! Splurt sounds like such a fun game!

[@tanyadonovan1979]

15:28 I agree with you Tyler about the piano lessons and teaching songs they want to learn and actually love . 👍🏼😊

[@minnoel9820]

I hope you're starting the next vlogmas with 2, 1.….. I have enjoyed watching your adorable family and trying new recipes and items you've shown throughout the month!!

[@KODoch48]

Hahaha!! You guys are playing this game … over and over and OVER! With literally everyone watching your video! Oh … and YOU are winning MOST of the time! So good!!

[@ashleyollie]

I just researched a music teacher in my area the other day to learn how to play piano…. Here’s my sign to follow through.

[@CharleneDelaney]

You guys are just the best!! We will miss your vlogs so much!! I LOVE watching you play games! Can I ask a favor? My husband hates playing card and board games and I don’t know how to change that, but if you guys could possibly record yourselves learning a new game, like that monopoly card game, maybe it won’t be so scary for him to learn a new game? Plus I bet it would be filled with laughter and who doesn’t want to see you guys laughing!! Anyway, you probably won’t even see this but I figured it couldn’t hurt to ask! Love y’all!!

[@amandastone348]

So I pulled out our Sushi Go! We have had it for awhile and never played but you inspired us. WE LOVE IT!! We have played the traditional way. We have even put up a privacy board to play secretly so we can’t see what the opposite player laid down until the end. It’s just all around fun and addicting lol. PLAY IT! It seems more overwhelming than it really is. We have played where we just pass out 10 cards face up to see who can make the best hand. That helped our daughters to learn.

[@LaurenKK1117]

My husband: why are you laughing at your iPad? Me: something that fits in your hand that begins with a D Buys game immediately because I’m a child woman

[@melw3518]

Yes! Learn songs you want to play! That's the issue I also had when learning the piano! My aunt was my teacher and made me learn 'by the book' so I bought sheet music for music I liked and taught myself those songs. You are doing exceptionally well for self taught!

[@mandypotts8984]

Loved this! We got Splurt as well and my daughter insisted on playing after Christmas dinner. So much yelling and fun! Happy New Year Braun fam!

[@tiffanyLOVESyellow]

Tyler, I totally agree with your little piano teacher tip! I took piano lessons for 10 years and quit when I was in high school. Now I’m 27 and feel like I don’t remember a single thing haha! But definitely if I had a teacher who taught me songs that I wanted to learn I think I might’ve been more passionate about learning piano and practicing the songs

[@susanferris]

Buying a space is a great idea. I bought a small house to put my office in which was on the outskirts of our downtown. That was 18 years ago. It has now tripled in value (as the downtown moved to me) and as I near retirement I am thrilled to have the extra investment value. I can either rent it or sell it. A win/win for me. When you are self-employed every little bit helps. Love your videos btw.

[@robinnieto2703]

The Jammy awards should never get a new name! I’ve been watching you since your first video and love this series. A state with two vowels in its name…Ohio,no…..lol! There’s two vowels there i and o. I need that game!

[@FHG2088]

That game was so much fun! It was my fav part. I love games and no one in my life will play with me 😂

[@brandiparis5411]

I’m cracking up at y’all playing your game! Hilarious 😂 Definitely going to buy it now.

[@dddduchene2517]

Splurt looks so fun ! You both make me smile !

[@stephanietorres5679]

I like the way you have your office set up.

[@NatalieYTFoster]

Hopefully Tyler will be getting his 100k play button soon 🤞🏼

[@maryfalckslus]

I loved seeing the tour of your filming room, Jessica! Lots of good ideas for my office

[@modernvettech]

Confession: I was in Walgreens and randomly spotted splurt on the shelf…it was a MUST buy after seeing this. It’s way more difficult than I thought it would be at times but fun!

[@joannawarrens5117]

I ordered Splurt last week and it came today! Thanks for the rec!

[@lizzyb6800]

Immediately texted my bf “babe you should get the game splurt, its a really fun card game” Literally never played it in my life 😂

[@creepybiddy]

So a game y’all would LOVE is called “that’s it!” Similar to this. There’s 5 hints/answers per card, you read the hint and then everyone shouts their answer, first person with the exact answer wins. First person to win 3 cards wins the round. It’s literally the most fun game to play with a group. Love doing it on family days. 😊

[@tpowell7159]

You two crack me up! Sure wish my hubbie would play games with me.

[@michelleerickson262]

The Velocity 1.6mm pens are my absolute favorite too.!! 😂

[@kentuckywildcatfan5096]

Tyler, you’re right on the piano playing: I quit bc I had an old lady who only taught classical music. I HATED it. I now wish I was able to play. Maybe one day I’ll teach myself?? 😉

[@lorifriel2379]

Omg I now need to get splurt! I am dying laughing 😂😂😂 my abs hurt. Th hats was great ❤

[@amandastone348]

That’s amazing advice about the keyboard and lessons!! I never thought about it like that. I think I’m gonna get my daughter a beginner keyboard because she loves music but I thought if we went the traditional route she would get bored.

[@Pinupred21]

Your videos bring me so much joy ❤

[@GirlyYani18]

Watching y’all play Splurt was so funny!! Here is an idea… when you play with just the 2 of you maybe you can time each around for 1 minute at a time and whoever gets the most cards after 20 minutes wins! I’m going to have to pick up this game too 🤗

[@22candaceee]

I commented the other day but I’m going through the same thing with my dog and a similar bed I got her for Christmas 😂 she doesn’t get how to go under it but when I pull it over her she’s sooooo happy

[@chiknlittle]

I am absolutely dying watching y’all play splurt

[@Andi-tx1rl]

I laughed sooooo hard watching you play that game. Must buy!!

[@lipstickandlibraries]

I ordered splurt on your recommendation and its arriving tomorrow! our family is doing a christmas part 2 in january and I can't wait to play it with them :D

[@SavannahJoyful]

An easy way to play blurt with two people is setting a 60 sec timer and taking turns. See who gets the most after a set number of rounds

[@roseg1333]

I just painted my nails 💅🏼 lavender shade by OPI too 😍💜😂☺️ I’m lovin this lavender craze

[@texasdeb23]

Lying in bed watching yall with AirPods in I yelled radio! My husband , on other side of bed yells television! LOL!

[@bellesgarden9486]

I laughed so hard at "MANSLAUGHTER!" 🤣

[@stilwellpianostudio7813]

Tyler said Pelé 😢 sorry to be a Debbie downer, but it just happened today. He was the best with a heart of gold.

[@shopaugustlowe]

My niece just got a piano for Christmas, and we ordered her a Super Mario theme music piano book because she loves video games 🤣 ...needless to say she loved it.

[@kaylyncooper9395]

Jessica, you should call it the Jabby Awards now!

[@luvnspiky]

I was in Kohl's today and saw Splurt on clearance for $4. Glad I watched this video last night because I snatched two up. One for me and one to give as a gift.

[@EP-hm5ue]

Fruit or vegetables ending in D : Swiss Chard, Mustard Seed, Seaweed is a veggie. Tyler was right.

[@karen-bethrynk8875]

That is such good advice about finding a piano teacher. I took lessens when I was in 7th and 8th grade and I hated it. I had those “ pre manufactured” books! I was kinda pressured into it to. I started taking lessons from the nuns at school and about my 3rd lesson I came home from school and there was a piano in the house. Talk about pressure. Then my mom took me to a music school (cause the nun teaching the lessons almost broke my pinky finger cause I was hitting the note incorrectly) and I would go to my room and hope my mom would forget about the lesson. It worked some weeks. But maybe i was learning music I like, I may have stuck with it.

[@alexandragblessing]

Oh man, I so agree about finding the right piano teacher that lets kids play songs they're interested in. I had a piano teacher who made me play the most boring songs...and sure enough, I totally lost interest & stopped lessons

[@mariaisabelherrera224]

Love u guys I’ve been playing with you guys as well I was dying laughing with you guys in tears Jessica your so funny my son was like what’s wrong and I explained 😅❤love playing games

[@diamondhair11]

I love the leather chair....Love it !

[@jessfel3961]

Well, Splurt should definitely sponsor you cause now I want it so bad. I literally went looking for somewhere to buy it

[@zoeygroat1560]

Where I live school is k-6. Junior High is 7-9 and High School is 10-12. Anyway we (the choir) sang A Whole New World as our 9th grade promotion song. It will always be one of my favorites ❤
