then everything's like a turning off and it's too much you miss the turning it's just ridiculous

there's also this mcdonald's that we're thinking about apparently it's got chandelier in it
and a pianist it's right there actually we'll go there in a bit we need a starbucks break first

well it's raining till 7pm when we don't have an umbrella we don't have an umbrella we haven't got
the time for this we haven't got the energy all the time there's the biltmore trolley trolley's
people about not made we could always drive to if you want to be in get get the starbucks and let's
drive to that grove inn it's near here and just go and have a look around that hotel and just wander
around them like go in the lobby and just have a wander around to see the grounds i mean i know
might have go outside but we can just go and have a look at her well we can everyone said go in like
yeah i suppose it's just we can't even walk around the grounds because it's raining it's

no drive-through so we've got to go in okay that's fine okay we're gonna have a meeting in here
yeah we're a customer sorry what it was just how narrow the space was here i think the thing is
the car looks wider than it actually is really yeah like let me show you this look at that
stunning stunning there was a that's nice by the fire in the rain indoor pool can we go swimming
i wish don't have my swimming stuff i don't really know what why people i think people wanted us to
stay there we could always say hi we're interested in the wedding packages here can you give us a job
can we have cake tasting can we have a tour yeah it looks like they've got many many different
locations right anyway we sort it out in style we've been to starbucks had a starbucks didn't go
inside for the meeting as we said we would because unfortunately joel i mean there was the breed it
was the lady the coffee the coffee the germs it was a bad there was a woman that sounded like she
was dying from either kovid or a cold or just sick in general and i was like what's she doing out and
about stay home darling it was the most aggressive cough it was like you could hear it down here
constantly and i was just like now we're not sitting in here i'm not getting ill because of
someone else being selfish but yeah anyway so we went in got the drinks poor joel had to sanitise
because he opened the door that was touched by the coughing lady and now we're just going to
um publix yeah we're going to get some snacks there's going to go home aren't we there's nothing
we can do we haven't got umbrellas it's not very pleasant even if we did have an umbrella to be
out and about so we're like well let's go home we can film some sit-down videos and stuff yeah
we'll get some snacks and there is a hot tub at home so we can just relax and
enjoy ourselves because we've worked hard do you know what i'm saying i just saw something that i
think might be a rip-off of panera bread called atlanta bread you ever heard of wow never heard
about that pretty sure it's called atlanta bread and it had a similar logo i was like wow i wonder
if they they serve kitchen sink cookies like panera bread what's your favorite cookie if you
if it's not insomnia like what is that all-time joel wood favorite cookie in america in america
i was gonna say ben's cookies but no in america i don't know i went to a really great place in new
york i can't remember the name of it but it was i think it was more of an independent bakery and
the cookies were like this thick and like that big and it was just so nice really yeah that's amazing
yeah independent as well yeah i think so nice it's nine minutes now to publish what's your favorite
i'm not wearing shoulder pads by the way there's this clip in the other i don't know
if it's showing up on this but with joel wearing black on black it looks like his shoulders finish
where the chair is and it was so funny watching the playback like laughing our heads are so fun
what's your favorite food in america like favorite favorite favorite food
anything with buffalo sauce like chicken with buffalo or like ranch dip with like chips or
something i don't know just the things that you don't really get in the uk the dips are different
yeah so i don't know what my favorite food is here i don't have it grilled salmon obviously
salmon but i i eat salmon like three times a week i'm basically gonna become a salmon one day yeah
i'm gonna be reincarnated into a salmon yeah because all i eat is salmon but watching have
i ever eaten anything and gone wow that's my favorite thing i've ever tasted i don't know
well it would be the salmon wouldn't it a cheesecake factory but what else um there's got to
be something else that i've loved okay the toasted muffin at bob's diner with salty butter on it
yeah guys i'm really sorry if i'm constantly touching the lips it's because i've really i've
said it in the other clips i think but i've got really really bad sore lips joel's got dry lips
as well i know it must be asheville must be the the conditions of this place do you know what
there's no harm in repeating yourself because if we learned anything from the philly series yeah
start every video with there's currently a blizzard in philadelphia because there's some
dead random vlogs where like people that don't follow our live streams when we're around are like
oh you're outside tj maxx why is it why is there a blizzard yeah like why have you not we're just
like hi we're john and they're outside tk maxx and we just didn't acknowledge the blizzard it was so
it's so random when you watch it back you're like are these two okay yeah so i think just
keep mentioning mentioning context absolutely i mean one thing we should mention is that when we
go away we film a lot of content and then when we go back home that content you know gets edited it
gets posted as a way of like keeping the channel updated with content so now while we're here we
do live streams in the evening and sometimes still the content from the last trip is getting posted
yeah and we see comments all the time that are like i'm really sorry i'm really struggling like
you're live streaming from north carolina but i'm the video that's getting posted is you in
philadelphia like i don't i'm not following i know is it hard it's not hard it's just i don't think
any other youtubers do what we do so we should just be like wow it's just because we're original
it is it's frustrating as well because i feel like we try to be as clear as possible about what we
do and where we are but it's still never enough yeah it's never enough you're always going to get
one person joined as well and just go hey i'm new here like what's going on yeah there was something
really funny that we said on a live stream where we were talking about this fictional world a made
up joel in leoville yeah where there's like a driveway called like legends drive or something
and everyone's got their houses and stuff and then i see a comment that's like wait sorry i'm
lost where is john and leoville and how do i get to the drive and you know you're like oh no it was
all fictional it was all made up but our favorite thing is when people get it and go along with it
so when we met scott who worked at the biltmore he's a legend and like he just happened to be
working there and we happened to visit one of the questions was where's helena i knew he was like
what a [ __ ] right and we love that that was so funny yeah that was actually really entertaining
gosh where are we now i don't know but this is traffic it's absolutely chock-a-block i think i
have to get over to the other lane at some stage but joel's using waves down here okay i've seen
a lot of um medical places here more so than normal like when we're driving around places
we're in the medical industry maybe maybe asheville like they did say it started for
people to get better that's why people came to asheville yeah tuberculosis air was apparently
better and everything about asheville was like meant to promote healing and things like that
they sent soldiers here after the warfare rest spike um so then like all these surgeries like
we drove past an ears nose and throat surgery and i was like i was on a wait list for ages
to have my nodules removed i could have just come here yeah well you don't know maybe they
would have you walk in and they'll be like no yeah wait you never know we just assume that we
just assume that if you've got the money you can get seen but in the uk my surgery was free yeah
you got it on the nhs but if you pay for it you get it immediately well quick wouldn't you yeah
because lots of americans forget we do actually still have private health care you can choose
like you can either have the nhs free health care or if you've got the money and want to pay for
health care you can yeah so that's why socialized healthcare is the best because you get the best of
both worlds yeah you got the option yeah and then if you if you do have the money to go private and
you can then you can actually take the pressure off the socialized healthcare by by going private
freeze out for people that need it more copper river grill never heard of that one never heard
of that do you know what about poe chancles what apparently it's like started in charlotte
someone said started in charlotte i'm pretty sure that's what i read i was like i'm wondering if our
perchance video is really not going to appeal to many which is interesting i don't know everyone
was saying try poke angles though yeah so i mean the biscuits at pochangels were very nice
salty on the outside doughy on the inside yeah i'm just seeing if there's any better
shops because obviously we had this well it's too late yeah it's too late a fresh market that sounds
like a ripoff for whole foods it does and they've used the green and the white and similar font the
fresh market so we're going somewhere now where there is actually a whole foods well as a publium
we were going to go to trader joe's it was in the total wrong direction to near where we live
i think the reason that it could be accused is that there's a school bus and you're not
allowed to overtake school bus when it starts all the rules you know so many rules that's amazing
it's a stupid rule that's why i know it blue ridge parkway ahead
so the blue ridge parkway was recommended to us by the lady that was working inside the waffle house
yeah she was like drive that way drive that way go to the blue ridge parkway and we were we were
like really she's like yeah you're you're right near it you're near all the good stuff and it
would be nice to but it's such a dull horrible day that you probably don't get many good views
yeah and there's no we can't get out and walk because it's raining yeah it's so frustrating
yeah it is a bit frustrating but as is live yeah we're turning lemons into lemonade yeah
we're gonna go home now we're gonna sit down chill out we're gonna see if the hot tub's not broken
because the hot tub was kind of cold cold this morning we got in it and joel went
i'm not enjoying it and now that's stuck yeah i'm not enjoying it has become a quote
of the series yeah so the quotes of this series can we just say have been owned oh
and then i'm not enjoying not enjoying it we're not enjoying it yeah yeah so i'm not enjoying
it oh no and po chance there's the water it yeah something with a leaky roof yeah so it just all
ran down blimey far out that's far out there's definitely something going on with this jeep guys
hello plastic plastic we're just in the little plastic
shell yeah and on that note guys goodbye also last thing this car drinks fuel like it's water
yeah like it's a fish like it's water like it like we drink for a second yeah this car drinks diesel
or gas whatever you guys call it petrol was what we'd say like we drink for a second just plugs it
down yeah we need to fill up at some stage but americans i think do it differently where you
you go in you tell them how much fuel you want like 50 fuel and then they like program it on
the thing and you go out and it would just give you fifty dollars for them conk out when it's
hit fifty dollars that's excellent i know i don't like that why i prefer the ones in
the uk you just fill up drive out and like you pay on when you drive out i'd love the idea of
just giving them the cash and not getting out the car yeah you don't do that yeah
the one thing where the british way is more convenient in the american way
one thing well we do have some in the uk where you do have to go in but you do it the other way
around you fill up however much you want then you go in and then pay but the best ones are where you
drive in fill up your own fuel get back in the car drive out and there's a kiosk and you like
pay through the window and drive away or would you say it's even better where you just get your card
after you filled up and go and then you get back in and you drive so that's pure convenience wonder
why they don't have that here i know it's dead odd there's been a few times as well where we've gone
to pay and i got out my apple pay and she's like oh no it needs to be a physical card and i'm like
really they need to catch up with the uk really so strange which is weird because they invented
apple walmart walmart we like a t-shirt should we go one more time shall i indicate we'd love to
