A day in the life of an off grid Youtuber 

Your guitar playing and music is the best, fits the feeling of your videos like a glove. So much better than the canned youtube songs!

You and Brooke are my favorite people on youtube collectively. Calming, informative, practical, lovable and all that. You two are the real deal. I know that because I used to live and work in Big Rapids but mistakenly moved to the city. I love the peace (as Brooke said) and quiet in the woods. Thank you both for your videos.

Brooke, I really admire you. You're doing what I wanted to do at your age. Now I'm 66 and disabled, so my time has come and gone. I've spent much of my life working alongside my husband, helping him make his dream happen to create a business (Fine art gallery and custom framing shop) (art framing . . . . so I've swung a hammer or 2 and have had to figure out the logistics of what will look good, last the longest and make the most sense, PLUS being able to think on your feet and outside the box. And I feel/felt lucky to work alongside my Sweetheart throughout my life) so I really enjoy watching you 2 work together. Also, you wear WONDERFUL earrings, grrl!! 🧡💛💚💙💜💞💖💞💜💙💚💛🧡

The oil trick was awesome 😂

Awesome channel. Good medicine. Thanks for producing :-)

Shipwrecks, lighthouses and nautical stories of the Great Lakes ... that's "Pure Michigan", sir! Thanks for the tips and another glimpse at your slice of UP Heaven :) Later, friend ... God Bless

Loved the chipmunk segment !!!! Thanks.

Great on that Chipmunk for his continued diligence !! He EARNED those seeds!!!! 😂😂😂😂

Howdy Dave! So glad to see you made it back safely to MI. Very informative and well organized video. Very helpful for anyone thinking of starting a YT channel. Your radio voice adds a lot too. The thing I like most about your channel is your openness to whatever comes along in life and your ability to adapt to it and make it fun... and then catch it on film for the rest of us. It's good to know someone like that, enriching. Thanks for sharing! I probably speak for most of your subs when I say, I just wish you posted more often... really look forward to new videos.

You both make filming look so easy, we forget what's involved when putting it together. Enjoyed the narrative. I tried Vaseline on a shepherds hook and the Grey squirrels actually appeared to be having fun sliding down the pole. Like you said, they wore it dry and up they went. Thanks again Dave for sharing a piece of your life with us. Take care

You are an amazing storyteller and your music is soothing and wow original! You and Brooke share your lives with us and we appreciate it! There is something about your videos that calm me down give me a story ! Keep it up! ❤️❤️❤️

That is all great perspective on what people might want to see in a RU-vid channel. My wife and I have kicked around the idea of starting one as we start our process of working on our new 20 acres of land, clearing it and starting to build a treehouse, cabinet and eventually a forever home. We love watching your channel and your calming content. It's always entertaining and relaxing.

Hi Dave....the video is great!....Let's see... you're a Guitarist... Knife maker...Cabin builder...Videographer...Concrete builder...And a good husband & father!...May God Bless you and your family!

Thanks for sharing all your great tips.

Hey Dave, Love your videos!!! You do such a Great Job, also Love Brooke's channel too!!! It's relaxing to watch you guys building, cooking and hanging out. Keep the videos coming!!!

I love watching all of your videos.

Awesome, I really love watching you videos something about them just makes me feel good thank you.

I really enjoy your videos and those of your wife’s!!!!

thank you. great perspective, as always.

It’s impressive that you play your own music because that’s one thing I noticed I liked. At the beginning of your videos is just a calm few notes. Not the blaring music that I hate in peoples videos. Thanks for that.

Thank you, i love your work and your authenticity 👏💛🌞

This was VERY interesting and MOST enjoyable. Thank YOU for producing and sharing it. Awsome 💛

I love your video style. So interesting and easy to watch. You are a natural. Brooke is one of my favorites as well. You guys Rock! Thanks for what you do.

Perspective was a gift.... You two are a treasure!!

Some great tips. Cheers for taking us with you on this fine day.

Michigan is the best, great content and seeing you guys always! I’m always counting on a relaxing evening when I’m watching! Love you both!

Hahahaha, "we'll deal with him later" spent the rest of the video wondering what the little fella's fate would be Good to see you back

The sound of the water moving rocks is incredible. I learned this in Maine one years.

These videos help immensly to get through work! Thanks!

Great video, love all the cool shots. That chipmunk was adorable and hilarious, thanks for sharing all the sights and sounds.

You and Brook do a great job with everything u do, and that's a lot.

Wonderful to watch and learn!

Thanks for the video lesson. You’ve inspired me!

I'm a new subscriber. Just want to tell you that I love, love, love your channel❣ Please make more! Been watching older amazing videos❣ Oh and sharing them with my family and friends; please don't ever change, Stay Radical❣

So happy I found your channel. Interesting and informative and fun.

We love your style, Dave. Keep up the good work! Would love to see you & Brooke on tv again!!

Now that’s an old fashioned Coleman stove. Don’t see them,Ike that anymore! Wish I was eating breakfast with y’all.

Thanks brother I learned a lot.

As a child. we lived in NM. We camped on the Pecos. I loved Chipmunks. In SC, where I now live there are no chipmunks. I would feed chipmunks. lol

Very good and helpful video. You articulated everything great (as usual)! Love seeing the bonus shot of the chipmunk climbing the pole! 👍

Thanks Dave ! Relaxing,informative, inspiring

I love the chipmunk shots. I’ve showed my wife and shared it with my son. I think I can get a devotion for my boys at church showing it and to be determined.

If I were to ever visit lake superior I would do nothing but look at those rocks!!! I go up to the north georgia mountains and camp on the River and that's what I do. And man that guitar sounds so good. Love u and Brooke both of you are such an inspiration!!!!! Bout to start a cabin on our own property so so excited. Just got diagnosed with covid so soon as that's done!! God bless you guys.

I enjoy your videos and look forward to them

Love you two make my life a little better everyday thank you

Thank for the info you two. love Michigan feel on all your videos,I'm right there with you.

Great vid love the ball valve under the well pump I will be trying that at my off grid cabin

I always love watching your videos it's so refreshing.

Thanks for posting. I have property around Pine Stump Junction and have been to Crisp Point several times. I love the drive to the point. My best to you and Brooke. I always enjoy all your videos.

Another great video, thanks, Dave!

Happy I ran across your channel (and Brookes). Looking forward to the videos

I loved the setup... Very comfy and nice

You have a unique style to all your videos, same with this one. 👍🏿👍🏿

Thanks for sharing your insight .

Love the channel. I’m from Michigan and love cris point lighthouse been there many times

Thank you for the info. Great ideas to keep the viewer interested.

I like your idea and the way you film... It helps the brain imagine how it would feel to hold something 👍

Very relaxing video covering the simple things in life. Great ideas for making videos, so enjoyable.

Great video Dave. I know we’ve talked about most all this but it was great seeing it explained in video as well. Looking at the texture of the bricks on that lighthouse through the lens gave me a sense of being right there! It’s amazing how just little adjustments while shooting footage can completely change the way your videos turn out! Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Wildman....That was Super Awesomeness....

Thank you for this informative video. So nice to see a bit of both of you in a video, my best to the kids and animals.

Great video with great advice! Thank you for sharing!...

Finally! Been waiting for you to post another.

Dave - thanks for this. What I really like about your and Brookes channels is the way that it really gives a feel and flavour for what you are doing. The style you've developed is key to that I think, it's what makes your content unique - grateful you shared your thoughts on how you do it.

What a lovely video of my two favorite RU-vidrs. Cute idea with the oil and the chipmunk. I hope you are having an amazing summer. Much love and prayers to you and Brooke!

Good stuff as always on the Bushradical channel. Don't forget the perfect cadence of your narration and music. Relaxing but still holding everyone's attention. Very nice Dave.

Such a great video, so informative. Just loved the beach/lighthouse scenes and the chipmock😂. 👏👏👏. Thank you.

Hey Dave, Thank you for another great video...... Keep healthy and safe up there!

Awesome video Dave and thanks for the shooting tips peace to you and your family.Get outside and get happy!!!

Oh man that chipmunk and the oil . Funny stuff !

Great eye for content and contrast!! Keep it up you two!! J&C

I really enjoyed watching this video. You always have great videos and so does Brooke. I just love you guys!❤

Just love your shots- from a fellow Michigander I love any shots of Lake Superior and the rocks. Also appreciate the simplicity of your music- the relaxing sounds of the guitar go so well with your content!

Love you guys keep safe Good 👷 work.

This was a great video. Thank you !!

Thanks for all the tips. I'm still learning after 3 years. I need to break my videos up more, you gave me a lot of good ideas!

My wife put a slinky on our bird feeder pole in an attempt to discourage the chipmunks. Well, they were able to still crawl up through the slinky, fill their pouches with goodies and then ride the slinky down like an elevator. It was fun to watch anyway. You have a special talent in making your videos where you can take what may seem like a mundane activity and make it very interesting, entertaining and also informative. Your narration is also what makes your videos so enjoyable. You have a relaxing style that just keeps everything interesting. I think you would have made an excellent teacher. But then, I suppose you are. Thank you for sharing Dave.

What a beautiful lake that is. We hope to see it some day.

Very insightful video, lots of great info and tips for aspiring RU-vidrs. Love your music, it is so completely enjoyable, just LOVE it!! ❤️😁
