bring LOD we're live we're here how you
guys doing today this is Bruce here with traveling with Bruce here in Creston BC
how you guys doing today welcome to the show welcome back to the channel nice to
have you here hope you're having a good day today it's Saturday July 28 2018
almost the end of July unbelievable hope you having a good day today it's that
quaint warm muggy here here in Creston right now it's about 85 excuse me
we might reach 88 today we are gonna hit 97 here on Monday but I won't be here on
Monday getting out of town I'm leavin shortly after the show is over I will be
on the road with Jennifer we're heading into Calgary today we'll be there
tonight and for a week and I will be on the air on Monday as usual but I'll be
on the air from Calgary and all next week I'll be on the air from Calgary so
look forward to seeing you folks and talking to you from that locale and see
what's going on in Cowtown good old Calgary bill Calgary had the Stampede
the world-famous Stampede lasts about two weeks it ended last weekend and I'm
quite happy to be going to Calgary this weekend to avoid the whole deal although
we were in Calgary during the Stampede we actually happened to be there a
little while back but just for a couple of a quick couple of nights and that was
it and thankfully we were far enough away from the action to not have to
really deal with it when I was younger I you know I'd go and see the grounds but
to be honest Stampede I think it's exciting when you're a kid and up until
your 20s after that you kind of count the dollar so you go oh my god dollars
to take this in and the admission and a couple rides and whatever oh my goodness
it's just a fortune but you know state fairs you know what are you gonna do
it's once a year thing it's tradition and Calgarians love their love their
Stampede and what-have-you the rodeo anyway
they've moved on the Cowboys are down the highway I know where they are right
now they're moving on to another place and they'll be bucking horses somewhere
else anyway that's the deal they're all is good here the channel continues to
grow thanks to some of you folks who are really helping me but because of all of
you watching my channel my channel gets promoted by YouTube to other potential
YouTube Watchers we added six subscribers overnight we're now at 2447
we're gonna hit 2500 probably next week sometime I'm excited about that
I'm really happy to see that happening 225 hundred subscribers from a standing
start we will be one year old on August the 12th so just around our first
birthday we're gonna be around 2500 subscribers this is wonderful I'm
getting a lot of positive feedback from all over the place regarding the video I
loaded this week I don't know if you've seen it yet if you're a regular you
probably have if you watch me once in a while maybe you haven't seen it if
you're just watching this show or later tonight I did a video that I posted this
past Wednesday called why we are addicted to cruising 8 youtubers got
together to confess that they're addicted to cruising and if you get a
chance to check it out look it over see what you think there's myself and 7
other youtubers all involved in this collaboration video it's my most
ambitious project to date for YouTube and it's had some action and I've got a
lot of reviews from it and my the other seven youtubers have let me know that
they're all delighted with how the video came out and that they do have been
getting comments from their subscribers saying I saw you on Charlie with Bruce's
video if any of you out there are able to or you're interested in helping out
this channel and grow and the other seven as well I would recommend that if
you can share the video on YouTube on sorry on Facebook excuse me share it on
Facebook or through Instagram or through Twitter or so any other social media you
can and if you convince if you can convince people who
Shera to to Shree share it to really get at some legs oh that would be a
wonderful thing for the for the video and for this channel and the other seven
because all eight channels are linked by description in the description so anyone
who watches the video can check out the other youtubers anytime they want and
I've been encouraging my my friends who were collaborating with me to do the
same thing to let them know and through their friends and relatives and contacts
and anyone they have their dedicated Watchers share the video out there on
Facebook and other social media to really give that video a shot and really
put it out way further out than it would normally go with just my existing
viewership so thanks for everyone who helps already who's been helping already
on this project I'm really excited about it I think this video will attract
viewers for a long long time it's a timeless piece it's not a 2018 video
it's a video you can watch a year from now relevant then it'll be relevant two
years from now so it'll just generate views for a long time that's great I'm
happy to to help the other seven promote their channels they're looking to help
promote my channel and so it's a it's a win-win all across the board I look
forward to doing collaboration videos with other youtubers out there I'm very
much interested in doing that to expose this channel to uh to people that it
normally doesn't get to shown to because we are a little we are one of the
best-kept secrets on YouTube as far as I'm concerned that we we are just not

Thomas the steamy bean did mr.
Zimm ever get back to you yes he did I talked to
the zip now not on the phone I would love to talk to him on the telephone I
love to talk I sent Jim Zimmerman a message before I
did the collaboration video and I asked him if he'd be interested in being in it
and he sent me back a message on we were doing a Facebook connection thing
instant messaging and I just happen to be looking at my facebook channel the
traveling with Bruce a group page on Facebook
when my computer when me and a message popped up from Jim zip and he was
responding to my little request that I was introducing myself to him I I told
him what a fan I am and I told my watch his videos and who I am and I have a
little channel on YouTube with 2400 subscribers and you know I I'm just you
know hoping he'll even read the thing and I made a comment to him about how he
was so kind to me about oh this has to be about five months ago
I had written him a little message on a video he had made and commented on his
videography his top-notch quality of making a video it's really nice and I
said you vent you're you're one of the youtubers out there that inspired me to
become a youtuber I you know III trying to become a jimsim someday in quality
and variety of work and this type of thing cuz he's been doing this a while
and he wrote back to me very very appreciative of my comment which of
course I appreciated then he told me you should catch another channel you should
you you like you like nice in a photography why don't you catch Kate and
Nate and you should watch those two guys and that's another YouTube channel young
couple that are travelling around the world and using points and all kinds of
ways to travel they're just great they're young no kids takes me back and
and so I started watching their channel Wow love their channel they just do
fantastic work and so I wrote him on this little intro that I was just doing
last week I wrote him a little thank-you thanks for recommending you recommended
natan Kate I should watch those two guys and I just wanna let you know I am
watching them and they are like you said they are very very good well he writes
me back and he says I I know your channel I I've seen some of your videos
so I'm going oh my god the sim has watched me I'm shakin oh my god 220,000
subscribers and this guy's seen my work Oh No so he knows who I am
he's he's a err of yours truly in a limited way
however that didn't help me he can't do that he can't help okay I'm on I'm on a
holiday right now in northern Dino with my wife and I can't I can't shoot
anything right now but I really appreciate you asking and I thought oh
wow that's pretty cool so so I thank them you know thank you so much for you
know whatever I appreciate that then I happen to mention he was getting
ready to say his goodbyes and I sucked him quick I said by the way news the New
Age enjoy the cruise ship that Norwegian has in China they're pulling it out of
China and bringing it to Seattle for next year or or Alaska cruises they're
abandoning China you know the joy is being pulled he didn't know that he said
thanks for letting me know I'm gonna look into that so I kind of thought eyes
told Jim Jim something he doesn't know so I was pretty happy about that so uh
that's how I talked to Jim Jim now the boat okay that same day the next day he
did another video he did a little video because he's doing videos right now but
these little train model trains that he loves running he did a video bought one
of his model trains and I sent him a comment and I said loved the video it
was a water both touch coca-cola trainee picked up a little coca-cola train used
he bought it used the looks brand-new and I wrote him I said is it harder to
acquire one of these things or harder to sell one cuz that's a trick question
because if you own train sets you don't ever want to sell any they're like your
babies and nothing happened for about three four days cuz he was on holidays
of course and then last night in the night for last I got a little like on
that comment a little like popped up and I'm thinking that might be him he might
have he might have been reading some of his messages to saw that and gave me the
light but then I wrote him another little note last night or the night
before it's just a just a little follow up to say hey look thank you you know so
much for talking to me about that video that collaboration video I asked you
about if you want to die just wanna let you know seven of us eight of us got
together total eight of us including Emma who is in England the United
Kingdom he referred her to me you referred Emma to me and I was gonna
contact her as Mara had already caught already contacted her because I had seen
that he had done a collaboration video with her about 3-4 months ago and she
only had about 200 subscribers at the time and after she got off the air with
him within a week she was at 600 subscribers and now she's at 1200
subscribe anyway I contacted her and then I let her know that Jim Jim
mentioned to me that I should contact you to do the show and she was very
happy to hear that and so I let Jim know that I she did it she's in the video
along with us there's eight of us in total and it went really well and some
day I hope to you know hope we can do something together so I that's a little
contact there but I haven't talked to him like you know personally one-on-one
no love to do that but they're you there's my contact with him so steamer
there's a short answer to your long question laugh out loud
I asked Barbara the travel agent admin who called the cruising with wills
buffoons if she knew Bruce and she said no but would have to check him out hope
it goes well maybe that's Barbara right there
maybe that's barb in Atlanta right now is that barb in Atlanta I don't know

careful of those guys and then Rob's out oh good afternoon Bruce I may have upset

Sacramento is that what that is I'm guessing ed shik couldn't tell you
Tom I've been over it months I've been I rarely take it the bridge just the

the steamy bean Bruce was gushing with the zim oh I just Bart yes I watch them
too that is how I started watching travel videos they are good Kate Kate
and make Blaine his man crush well you know there's the steamer and I mean we
got the crush on the steamer and then there's there's Jim Thomas and then
there's there's my buddy with the big-ass RV yeah it'll come yeah you know
with the motorbike you know and then there's me and there's a four of us in
those showers with those multiple showerheads you know the story about
that out of control four guys in the shower or multiple steam has a Randy
Lucas and Randy Lucas there's there's there's steamer Jim Randy
Bruce it's out of control what can I say a man crush
cool chest Bruce rubbing elbows with the big boys well that's I just said that
for guys who have a biscuit problem rubbin elbows no I didn't say that
cat rows I want to meet Kevin and Frank they would be a lot of fun to get
together with Rob Sutter Bruce karenann eight is great
you would probably love endless adventures another great couple there I
may have seen some of their videos to the problem not the problem the reality
for me is I have no time I I have I have very little time I'm I'm having trouble
these days watching my favorites that I've been watching for five years I'm
having trouble keeping up with them because I've got so much to do to work
this channel and I'm only at twenty four hundred and forty seven subs this is a
full-time gig I'm trying to build this channel up quickly got so much to do
Robert Brandt does Jim and I'm Zim pay for his travels or or with the two
hundred thousand viewers subscribers is it all freebies I think he pays his own
way I I don't think he takes free trips he doesn't seem to have any kind of
sponsorship type arrangements from what I can tell you I'd love to ask him this
I mean honestly I I would love him to phone me and I'd like to have him on
this to this show on a phone in interview where I could just ask him
these questions because he's one of those he's the largest cruise the
largest cruise ship vd a YouTube creator that I know of by size of subscribers
and volume of views but it's not only cruising he loves talking about cruise
ships and and and other other topics but I don't think he does it isn't a
full-time gig he has a day job by the way he works he does this on the side
he's been doing it for a long time and he's built quite a following and I'm you
know I'm in awe of that I really am I'm just just stunned by that so I think he
pays his own way Tom Henry are are a DNG a couple d is pretty cute there are a
lot of fun they I think they are I think they're in they did a live stream last
night from Disneyland they're there right now and they were planning on
doing another one today or tomorrow or something like that they said hi to me
on their show last night right and her man cat Rose go to their group
Cruz 2020 that's the that's their that's the cruising with wheels group Chris
Robert Brandt Zim yeah Robert Brent cat cat rows money and other issues make it
not likely the steaming mean have you ever considered camping out on Zim's lon Rob Sauter
a Tom manry vlog 13 cooljazz gonna have to get Bruce to use Google Translator I'm gonna have to use a translator just
read some of the names that are coming at me get me barb no not not is it not

today Reggie and her man account Rose our cat Rose Bruce the car fire is one
that is near Redding California that's right it's a nasty one steamy bean yep
Mike Cruz was my first in a couple years finances would have would have made it
difficult Kathy soda gosh favorite Cruz was on the carnival miracle from New
York City to the Bahamas that was a few years back but my most favorite Robert
Brett a traveling with Bruce da da eekum da eekum is that how you pronounce that
champagne is that what you're talking about their cat Rose yep it is it stands
for Sacramento Mather feel they're your SMF right on Amy icon is going on my
sixth cruise in September on Royal Caribbean Freedom of the Seas out of San
Juan fantastic that should be great Amy C keeper Robert Brent up Shaw toady Kem

claustrophobia and AG Garo phobia yeah I'm a hot mess
I have not had a problem on these new ships had a big balcony on lady on lady
cruise that that helped and that helped on lookers barb thanks and I am going to
look for a big ship next year my friends cruise a lot so I'll see what they think
about a newer ship if they'll take a Tyler thanks Bruce I've been on two
cruises both on Royal Caribbean grandeur of the Seas right on I booked my next
cruise on her solo are also for November 2019 just don't think I can wait that
long for my next one though there you go maybe you'll have to come on a meet and
greet that I'll put together in meantime Robert Brandt sea keeper he got the
Chateau apart but was just fixing the the ECAM cool guys as amused points to
travel on his last cruise pain eleven bucks to travel from California to Miami
in first class right Hartwell yeah right on man way to go silo Steve hey all 85
for the high 60 for the low in Seattle hey Sal oh hi Don 91 days to the Bliss
he's going in the haman in to Mexico 540 days and so he goes on the encore in the
Haven Suites that is the cruising with wheels group crews still working on
going on the joy probably Alaska though that will be starting next April or
later Kathy saying cool jazz love your name that's my favorite music – who is
your favorite artist a Reggie and her man hey at silo hey so Robert grant
closer to correct cool jazz at silo Steve a make sure you say hi to Adrian
Vika that name is stuck in my head forever The Haven at sea oh my goodness
he's got a reputation alright Kuja has at Kathy soda thank you I do love jazz
quite quite a few people who play just Kathy Adrian Vika Oh Lord cruising with
wheels had some fun with that crackpot laugh out loud eat they sure did silo
Steve has anyone seen the Netflix trailer for like father takes place on
the cruise ship looks funny Kristen Bell Kelsey Grammer yeah that took place on
was that on harmony of the Seas they were just talking about that about a
month or two ago that is coming on Netflix right see keeper I advise
against teaching a French man how to pronounce French names
Scott Weber how are Neptune Suites on Holland America does anyone know what
it's like on a Neptune suite on Holland America I know they have their own
concierge area they have their own lounge area it's a private thing it's
kind of likely the Haven sort of thing but I don't know if they have all the
amenities like the the newer ships have for their high-end class passengers I'm
not sure if but if they have that on haul in America or not Kate Rose if I
ever go on a cruise definitely will get a balcony yes Kate Kat you do want to
get a balcony you'll love it you'll feel you'll feel just you know it's wide open
oh there's a beautiful view every day standing on your balcony sitting down in
the chair and looking out it's great you're the sound of the ocean it is
really nice Robert Brandt Kelsey Grammer is from st.
Thomas about that I love
Kelsey Grammer he is just a brilliant actor I think he is just fantastic the
steaming mean zim would need five hundred thousand subs or more to travel
like he does you know I don't know he has phenomenal viewership I think it's
almost six million views a month a month six million views a month
I've got about thirty thousand right now I can't hold a candle to this guy
it's incredible his following but if I were an agent and an advisor a
consultant to him I would be helping him monetize his channel to the maximum
benefit because he's I don't think he's doing it and he can quit his day job and
he could live off the channel and all of his sponsorships and he could didn't
travel all he wants but something tells me he kind of likes the life he has he's
in control he does what he wants when he wants where he wants how he wants how
can you argue that how can you argue that he probably will retire in the next
five to ten years he's gonna be forging 60 um he'll probably have a nice package
and we'll see what happens then way to go mr.
Zimmerman I I really admire them
I think it's fantastic I'm not in the position he's in because I don't have a
day job this is my day job and I've made this my day job and so I'm you know
working from here and and this will be my living this channel will be my income
generator be from multiple sources as we go down
but the abuse and the subscriptions have to be much higher than this for me to
make it make a goal but financially it's a steaming beam is Zim still married I
believe he is I think happily happily so I think I
don't think as children but if he is if he does are grown up I'm pretty sure uh
you looking for a mate there uh being Tom Henry's asking steaming beans Zim
has a nice package that might that might finish me off ever having a chance to
have mr. Zimmerman via guest on this show and that kind of comment right
there he might be sitting there going I'm not going on that sure you could I
got a handle that steamer died I don't want anything to do that guy I don't
know I we'll see we'll see keep your day job a silo Steve Lavin Ola
Blaine I think bean is looking to break a marriage I don't know too many blame
it on the rum that's right blame it on the rum okay all right I got some news
today on cruising and then we're gonna do some trivia first piece of news first
piece of news I have is a Puerto Rico Puerto Rico was announcing the other day
how things are progressing at the port since the Hurricanes hit last year
numbers are up for passenger arrivals they think they're going to reach 1.7 to
1.9 million passengers next year they want to go higher than that they want to
be the number one Caribbean port for cruise ships they are quite confident
that they can deliver the services needed to allow ships to homeport there
we'll have to see how this works out the reason for their numbers being
higher lately is because of the ships that are coming by are larger than
before we're talking about ships like the Oasis of the Seas the MSC seaside
Carnival horizon they're now all visiting the island on a regular basis
these ships have more ships more passengers than the ships they've
replaced and so naturally every time a ship pulls in the town you've got 1,500
more 2,000 more passengers coming off the boat then the 1,800 2,000 passenger
ships you used to have there of course are a lot of ships in smaller sizes
visiting Puerto Rico biking home ports one of their ships in Puerto Rico so
does I believe it's a sea view one of the other high-end lines Carnival is
there obviously we know that a Norwegian Royal Caribbean they're all there and
other other ships just come for day visits only and then leave rather than
home porting out of Puerto Rico so Puerto Rico is quite excited quite happy
there of course crossing the fingers that they won't get visited by another
hurricane in the near future and that they can continue to rebuild the rest of
the island and that they can you know build up that business and solidify the
infrastructure and move forward we'll see how this goes from there Robert
Brandt always blame it on a rummy says Tom Henry bartender cut me off like a
cat saying I hope they can get more of the island fixed up also I with you
their cat Robert Brad Tom Henry we don't do that here Robert Brad Tom Henry that
1862 is potent stuff Robert Brad tried the Bacardi 151 but not near a flame
that's some more odd stuff there other news for you Norwegian Cruise Lines has
announced today a new promotion sounds like the same promotions we've had
before but they're talking about they're now adding the delete the Norwegian joy
with Alaska cruises into these promotions which include a $25 deposit
is Alric all that's required to book a cruise with Norwegian on all practically
their entire fleet you can get up to five free offers depending on the room
you take the offers range from a free drink package including soft drinks and
coffee to free shore excursions specialty
dining packages are free or being offered free Wi-Fi is free and a third
or fourth person can sale free or for just the port taxes port charges and
taxes and tipping there's all kinds of deals going on right now at Norwegian
they're looking for people to hurry hurry and book now but they're talking
about cruises right through the winter into next year and on that vein Royal
Caribbean announced a couple days ago there they return of their Wow
sail they've done this before it's buy one get one at 50% off kids 12 and under
sail free 25% off third and fourth guests if they're adults up to a $200
cabin credit is available $100 credit if you book earlier rather than later
all kinds of freebies being thrown around but here's the reality on both of
these the fine print is what you got to worry about okay it's all in the fine
print the Royal Caribbean deal to me I think it's a it's a it's a no-brainer it
doesn't work you buy one cruise at full price and you get the second one and a
half off I say screw that just go to vacation to go calm you'll just see the
sale price on cruises pick your cruise they're way cheaper you're getting them
at 80% off 65% off for everybody why why pay full price and they only get 50% off
the second person and adding a debt in a deal on unrack rate who pays rack rate I
don't pay rack rate I don't know why you should either
anyway the fine print with regard to the second if the third and fourth people
the children in the case of Norwegian there's all kinds of restrictions on on
timing and and issues just either call them directly go to their own website or
go to vacations to go and call the 800 number there and talk to the agent
personally at vacations to go calm about the cruise you're interested in they'll
set you straight I don't get paid by vacations to go calm to tell you this I
just like using their site I wouldn't mind getting paid by those guys but
anyway there's some you know free advice for you and but there are
this is just another indication to me about what's happening in the cruise
business we keep hearing I keep hearing with all the research I'm doing um I'll
see I'll see a report coming out of Wall Street talking about estimated earnings
for Cruise Lines going forward a few analysts are seeing a bit of concern but
the cruise executives are it's just all peaches and cream it's all
oh honey boo boo it's all beautiful we're standing around the fire singing
Kumbaya because the passengers just coming to us handing us all kinds of
money and they'll just buy anything it's fantastic no problems here whatsoever
price of oil not a problem now we it's all good the fact we're giving away all
these freebies that's no problem it's all good no no no there's issues there
are issues certain cruise ships and certain locales are on a deep discount
and your job is to figure which one it is
and take advantage of that deal and that's what I love doing and that's why
yesterday I told you about four cruises that were available at a really good
deal great port stops fantastic cruise ships great staff great experience cheap
price thank you very much anyway buyer beware okay are you ready for trivia I'm
getting ready to do some trivia Michelle Lucas was saying she's here
she's saying traveling in our big-ass RV right now through smokey Reno Nevada
trivia answer for today Bakersfield were gone with Bakersfield
Robert Brad smilin Tom Henry I was browsing new cruises surprised they
didn't have the pearl cruises from Amsterdam yet interesting a Scott Weber
will NCL sail both the bliss and the joy in Alaska next year Scott Weber yes they
will and they are and the then they're sailing both ships out of Los Angeles in
the fall and winter on for a little while and then the Bliss is heading to
the Caribbean to Miami but the joy is working out of LA next fall and winter
as well and there are no the itineraries are brand new for the joy they're not
replacing any other ship in LA they are being placed in LA next year and I'll
tell you right now cruise cruise travel agents across the
States again around the world are being inundated I know I'm sure of it by
Norwegian Cruise Line promotion staff going the joy is in LA the joy is in LA
next fall here are the cruises to Mexico through
the Panama Canal get your passengers on a brand new cruise ship first time ever
offered and there may be some serious deals available on the joy because
they've only got a year or so to book it up that's a lot of people almost 5000
per cruise per week this is gonna be serious stuff of course Panama canal's
will be probably two weeks long but then Miami coming back they got a book I'm in
Miami backwards to LA LA over to Miami keep your eyes open for true Norwegian
joy cruise deals out of Miami starting winter 2019 next year keep your I will
I'll let you know whatever I find okay uh what do I got here Tom Henry Michele
smoke from the California fires probably silo Steve Haven deposit is always
fifteen hundred bucks just so you know for your information never was able to
pay less yeah they're not kidding with the DeHaven but they don't have problems
selling the Haven they don't they don't really have a problem selling the
Hammond the problem is the inside rooms the ocean views and some of the
balconies especially with five thousand passengers on a ship that's a lot of
rooms you got to move every week yes Scott Weber will RC CL Royal Caribbean
ever returned to California they are returning to California I thought with
the ship did I not do a story a few weeks ago about a ship that was going to
be placed in California I'm gonna look at my notes I know I know the princess
is the Royal Princess Royal I think was royal princess yeah roll forces will
have to check about what to check into that Scott it's only a matter of time
I'm waiting to find out if quantum of the Seas where will it be placed
eventually and also spectrum of the Seas is the spectrum of the season actually
gonna go to China or are they gonna cancel it and move it somewhere else
that would make a huge splash if they moved it to California huge cute but
we'll see I can't roast I thought I saw a blurb
about one of the cruise lines is going to do California coastal cruises
princess with royal princess cruise ship Blaine
don't forget the thumbs up that's right people give me thumbs up Robert Brandt
calling the agents always seems to get you better deals that's why I tell you I
call the folks at vacations go calm talk to them see what they have to say call
your local travel agent in your hometown see what they have to say check with the
cruise line talk to them shop around it's your money shop around yeah Debbie
Manuel thumbs up scat rose I will have to look into its silo Steve it looks
like from what I've seen from figuring out which trip to go on the joy is going
to shadow the bliss all the way to the Caribbean that could well be sir could
well be are we doing here 37 watching 21 thumbs ups thank you everybody this is
great I thought what is the best 9 to 14 day cruise to go on when I'm going solo
well Ethel the best deal you're gonna get up to 14 days or maybe even a little
longer than that repositioning cruise that's your best deal you can get on a
ship from say Miami to London or Miami to Barcelona or this fall coming up you
can fly to Europe one way Rome back to Fort Lauderdale or Miami or Venice all
the way back to Fort Lauderdale I did a feature on a cruise ship couple days ago
was a cost to cruise from Venice to Fort Lauderdale 20-something days might be
too long for you but it was like 30 40 something bucks a night pay double that
it's 80 bucks a night you still getting a deal I'd look into repositioning
cruises as an as an idea as an idea maybe something from you know Vancouver
down to Los Angeles by way of Mexico or perhaps a Panama Canal repositioning
cruise from San Diego Los Angeles San Francisco all the way to Florida
one way repositioning there you might be able to good deal there might be able to
get a good deal Tom Henry I saw a great tour in Punta Arenas Chile to the Torres
del Paine National Park cost was twelve hundred and twenty-five dollars for an
11-hour tour anyone have any knowledge about this tour it sounds awesome it
sounds like it's out of my price range I can tell you that this is unbelievable
in Chile wow that must be something really spectacular I would say Tom if
you want to find out about that tour a little bit my guess would be lookup
YouTube videos if you can find any you know just enter the enter the the Punta
Arenas Chile you know National Park or the pion
you know pine and that way I pronounce it National Park see see what pops up on
YouTube maybe you'll find someone who's done this to her might be worth a look
Robert Brent at traveling with Bruce I think the high end is selling fast the
sweets etc so if you want to travel like that you can't you can't wait you're
right I agree we talk about hard economic times out there and the
struggling middle class there are a lot of folks in the upper middle class and
above there aren't that many cruise opportunities for them as far as how
many cabins there are the Haven on on the Bliss how many are there 250 300
rooms there aren't a thousand so they go pretty quick the Bliss has what 1500
balcony cabins every week available 52 weeks a year whereas the Haven a
fraction of that and that's the same on other ships certain ships don't have
these kinds of amenities because they weren't built when these kinds of cabins
came out because the Haven is only so so old so many years old so for high-end
cruisers or cruisers who want the higher end treatment that the choices aren't as
plentiful and so the competition is on cruise lines know that they're not gonna
discount the Haven if they don't have to they're gonna get top dollar
yeah cooljazz my answer trivia Calgary that's my answer to me Rob Sauter Bravo
Bruce let people know where you can get a true deal Thank You ruff I do the best
I can Blaine Tokyo that's my answer Kat is
something burning down is something burning down towards you 70 a lot of
smoke in the area forest fires in the area somebody's been closed far as I
know Scott Weber west coast needs more piers right now unless you dock at the
big industrial ports everything is standard I agree
the west coast is sadly lacking in passenger friendly ports
okay because apart from a handful you really are in an industrial like an LA
you're in a container area container shipping area it's not pleasant but you
know real estate on the coast it's precious where do you put it how do you
put it not easily done silo Steve yes Robert
The Haven is sold out on a lot of cruises I have been looking at it's

Angeles so does Debbie Manuel Los Angeles in 1940 Los Angeles was the
fourth largest area metropolitan in 99 States 1940 it was number four at 2.9
million people in 1960 LA was number three at six point seven million in 1980
it was number two at nine point four million in ninth in 2000 it was number
two at twelve point three and in 2017 it's number two at thirteen point three
million people population la Tom Henry Atlanta Georgia
what about Atlanta Bruce where does it come into 1940 Atlanta had five hundred
eighteen thousand people it was the 21st largest metropolitan area in the USA in
1960 it was 22nd at just over a million people in 1980 Atlanta moved up to
number 15 20th largest in the United States now in 2000 Atlanta reached 12th
with 4.1 million people and Atlanta in 2017 was in ninth place 5.8 million
way up from 21st 22nd place in the 40s and 60s up to the top 10 Wow
Atlanta is moving up Robert Brent Chicago Tom Henry Chicago cooljazz
Chicago yes Chicago in 1940 was number two four
point eight million people in Chicago in 1940 in 1960 Chicago was number two at
six point seven million 1980 Chicago fell to number three at seven point
seven million in the in 2000 still in third at nine million and in 2017 still

Rob Sauter New York we have it Robert Brent Atlanta we have it Blaine Los
Angeles we have a Debbie Emanuel Dallas Texas Dallas Texas was not in the top 25
in 1940 Dallas Texas was number 18 in 1960 with a million population Dallas
Texas in 1980 after 1960 1980 Dallas came in at came in at where is Dallas
I'm looking I'm looking party mwah yes Dallas number eight in
1980 at 2.9 million in the year 2000 Dallas moved into number five at 5.1
million and in 2017 Dallas as number four seven point four million the fourth
largest city nineteen forty wasn't on the top 25 air conditioning Miami by
Blaine Blaine is guessing Miami in Florida nineteen forty not on the list
in 1960 Miami was twenty third nine hundred thirty five thousand people can
you imagine Miami with only nine hundred thirty-five thousand people in 1980
Miami was 18th at one point six million in 2000 Miami was where is Miami in
sixth place with five million people today 2017 it's in seventh place 6.1
million a top-ten city for population cooljazz Detroit Michigan
1940 Detroit was number five two point three million
just behind Los Angeles 1960 Detroit was still number five 3.7 million 1980
Detroit was still number five at 4.3 million in the year 2000 Detroit dropped
to number nine at 4.4 million he only gained a hundred thousand people in 20
years and in 2017 Detroit comes in at number fourteen at four point three

nine two point nine million in 2002 Stan got to number eight at four point seven
million and in 2017 Houston is number five six point nine million people
Chicago we've got can't give me more than one guess Philadelphia from Tom
Henry Thomas Henry Philadelphia was number three in nineteen forty with 3.2
million people just behind Chicago just ahead of LA 1960 Philly came in at
number four at four point three million we had New York Chicago LA Philly
Detroit in 1960 Philly was number four 1980 Philly was still in fourth place

Francisco in 1940 San Francisco was eight at one point four million San
Francisco in 1960 moved up to sixth at 2.7 million in 1980 hung on in number
six at 3.2 million in ninth in 2000 San Francisco drops a number eleven at 4.1
million and San Francisco right now is in 12th place 4.7 million it's kind of
topped out right on a land run out of land Miami we've got San Francisco we
have Las Vegas is not in the top 25 according to 2017 for a metropolitan
area it's getting close but it's not there yet Blaine Pittsburgh Pennsylvania
yes this is an interesting story Pittsburgh was number seven in 1942
million people in 1960 it was number eight at 2.4 million by 1980 Pittsburgh
was 12th at 2.2 million stood lost 200,000 people by 2000 hits bird was
20th at 2.4 million people and in 2017 Pittsburgh Pittsburgh I'm looking I'm

time was in top 25 was in 2000 at 20th place Pittsburgh is no longer in the top
25 how about that uh Steel City San Diego Debbie Manuel San Diego San Diego
in California entered the top 25 in 1960 with a million people it wasn't on the
list of 1940 by 1980 San Diego moved up to 17th place with 18 1.8 million hung
on to 18th place a sorry 17th place in 2000 2.8 million and is still in 17th
place at 3.3 million San Diego hanging right in there DC did the district of
Washington was 12th in 1940 at 960 8,000 people

Enderman by all AJ Boston we got we've done it San Antonio I just entered the

the top 25 we're just about done folks let me finish the last list off El Paso
Texas is not in the top 25 nope Silvia Hybris was having technical difficulties
with texting have been listening and gave a thumbs-up Thank You Silvia so
much and have a great weekend if I don't talk to anymore AJ Walsh Fort Lauderdale
Florida nope that's part of Miami in this survey Anthony does gaming my ear
hurts what's the question largest metropolitan cities the United
States top 25 largest metropolitan cities for the years 1940 1960 1980-2000
2013 Louisville Kentucky nope did not was not ever on the list since he fans
got tired of the Bengals losing so he left town Blaine says that's right
that's what happened Rob Sauter Jacksonville Florida didn't show in the
top 25 I'm wondering why it's not even in 2017 to me I think it should be in
there Gregory had Miami we've done already Denver we did laughing out loud
so Lee is loving it Noreen's lost all the residents after Katrina that's right
Amy Indianapolis we've done it steamy beam
what is the question I just said it AJ Walt's Charlotte North Carolina we just
did Charlotte San Antonio Texas we just did it San
Juan nope that's it's close but not quite um
action matter of fact it should be in that list I think it's 3 million no
that's the island sorry Memphis no Miami no we didn't already
steamy beam just throw it a city I don't know it Memphis we did Oakland Oakland
did not ever show as a top 25 city in the United States I'm looking for a city
in the West in the Midwest wait a minute I'm sorry I have to take that back we
already did the city in let me just double check sorry folks I got so many
names here I got a double triple quadruple check this list yes got that
one already I'm not looking I'm looking for a city
on the west coast just south of Seattle big city south of
Seattle Albuquerque is another guest no New York we already did Cleveland we did
Cleveland already blame Newark that's part of metropolitan New York looking
for a city that is on the west coast the United States just south of Seattle I'm
looking for a city the capital of New York State
and another city in New York State um let's see if we have any more left to go
here I'm looking for a city in California that we would think as a
suburb of LA but actually is not its own it's its own city with its own
metropolitan area but on a big map you just say oh that's part of Los Angeles I
think should be counted which would make LA solidly number two way BA bigger than
it is here comes some guesses a Portland Oregon thank you everybody yes Portland
Oregon was number 23 in 1940 with five hundred and one thousand people
Portland did not register in nineteen sixty did not register in nineteen
eighty it did register in two thousand and did register in Oh seventeen if
someone already guessed Portland I apologize I may have already done it I
just missed it Albany is another one that was a top-25 City number 25 in 1940
after that Albania never showed its face again almani Albany Albany San Francisco
we've done Buffalo we've done autumn on Hamilton game starts in half an hour go
go go I had Buffalo so that's not it Robert
Brandt said Portland way back thank you Robert I did get you on those newer
years Albany and whom okay I'm giving it up here the other city is Youngstown New
York only in 1948 ranked as the number 24 City and that finished that list I'm
just looking at 1980 and 2000 the 1980 Riverside California
came into play for the first time with one and a half million people in 2000
Riverside came in at 13th place and in 2017 Riverside is still in 13th place at
4.5 million just behind San Francisco I believe Riverside should be part of
metropolitan Los Angeles and if you've added 4.5 million from Riverside to LA
you would give LA 17 point 8 million number 2 behind New York at 20 point 3
million but definitely way ahead of Chicago at 9.5 but that's just me being
me and that's that that's the that's the quiz you guys did really well this
trivia question you guys nailed it a number of them were on all five or four
of the five or three of the five but it's fascinating to me to see how
Detroit went from number five all the way down to number 14 how a
Pittsburgh went from number 7 in 1940 all the way down to basically be off the
list Simon himself 25 anymore st.
Louis dropped dramatically Baltimore dropped
Buffalo gone Cincinnati off the list it's really fast
thing how things have shifted southern cities have come in cities that were
uninhabitable in 1940 no air conditioning are now big cities across
the USA anyway there you go how about that that is my that's my show
for the day we've done our trivia we've done our little cruise news let's see
here aunt Ida's gaming Eartha be the best if you had to choose one island
that you've visited on the cruise to live on for the rest of your life what
would it be well I lived on the Cayman Islands enjoyed that st.
Thomas sounds
pretty good from Robert Brett's telling me I as a saint st. Martin I'm not so
sure about it might be okay but those are a couple of guesses from here but I
