Behind the Vlog 2023 - UPDATED! My YouTube Story, Home Office Editing Setup + Q & A! 

Found Jackie during the pandemic and haven't stopped watching her ever since. My favorite vlogger from a sea of vloggers. You make my days and always look forward to the next video. Keep up the great work and love you!

I think A&E needs a jackie super enthusiast travel channel! LOVE YOU, JACKIE!

I still love watching your channel!

I love sharing a story on how you started a RU-vid channel back in 2017, showing the editing setup etc. I’ve started RU-vid back in 2009. So I’ve done variety of videos. I’m so glad to be in this Disney/travel/theme park community.

Thanks Jackie and Sam for what you do. You are both amazing people.

I know I sound like a broken record but you are amazing all round wonderful person. I seen all of your vidoes, any way from the bottom of my heart thank you for being you . God bless. 😊 ❤ 💯

I've appreciated your vlog style and personal attitude from when I first started watching you. Keep it up 😊

Lady, I really liked this, it’s like a live stream but more focused and you don’t have to stop every two seconds to read questions that are flying by at the speed of light🎉 Looking forward to the TN videos! My husband and I love it there too! We always say we would love to own a cabin there someday or move there❤

I love the purple on the computer. My favorite color!

Wow....boardwalk and baseball. Memories.....yep boardwalk thru the park and Kansas city royals minor league team played there. Sadly I knew it wouldn't last it was always empty

Love how genuine you are, such a breath of fresh air in every video! Bonus, you and Sam are adorable!

Watching you today I’m just loving all your energy.

Thanks for what you do. Your channel is a breath of fresh air.

Love your channels! I used to work at Opryland when I was a teen and was there the night it closed. So many of us Nashvillians still miss that park. It was such a great little place.

Looking forward to your travels! Thank you for this 😊

Thank you Jackie for answering my question. We are disnerds as well!

Thank you ☺ 🙏 Jackie for answering my question.

I just love you Jackie and I appreciate your video's. So often they cheer me up. I don't get to go but I can through you. A little food, a fun wander around. ride a ride with you. It makes my day and I am Wayne's World the heck with that other silly guy. Hahaaa I also like that you and Sam found each other, he seems to complete you and that is great.

I love your channel! Thank you so much Jackie!

thanks for the update!

Loved this vlog you and Sam or so genuine and wonderful to watch. You truly bring joy to me. I totally agree with the cold weather is no fun. I hope to get back to Florida next year. Stay well

I always love you enthusiasm! And you two are so cute! Thanks for sharing.

Opryland was an Awesome park, its sad that its gone!

Thanks for all the great videos Jackie

I'm jealous of Sam's PC, that thing looks beastly!

I recently started watching. I liked it so much that I started watching some of the beginning videos. The 1st trip to Knott's was fun

I love that you mentioned the names of some my travel superheroes❤ Grew up watching Rick Steves with my family and watched Samantha Brown when she had her regular show! This was great! Thanks for sharing 🎉

I do love your video style, it is the best, like we are right there with you. Especially when I cannot get down to the parks. And I love you leave Orlando and go other places. I regret not going to Hard Rock Amusement park at Myrtle beach. I was there the year it opened but thought I would wait a year. Sam's Extinct videos are cool to cover places I never heard of. Keep sharing!

Love the montages at the end with the music backing. Your music choices are brilliant.

Wow, I can`t believe it`s been a year since your last Q&A, where does the time go? I love travelling with you guys, and you introduced me to Dollywood and Gatlinburg, which I really enjoy. You`re both so positive and make the best out of everything, and that`s lovely. Love from western Canada.

Thank you for sharing, Jackie! It was fun to see your desk & office area as well 🧡💚! I enjoy this type of video as opposed to live streams, much more thoughtful and focused.

My wife and I met you a couple months ago at the Ganachery at Disney Springs. You were seriously the sweetest! We love your videos 🎶🎶🎶

Just keep being you, I really enjoy all your vloggs

Geauga Lake was in my backyard. We were so fortune!! Also across the street was SEA WORLD. Made for some magical summers.

Your positivity is such a bright light!

Same as many people are saying, found you during the pandemic. I hadn’t EVER watched RU-vid in my life until 2020! Crazy! Now I watch it all the time and all my new friends videos. ❤❤

I knew you were a kindred spirit!! Cheese is my go to!! I enjoyed your video once again!

Jackie,I love you so much, I have been watching you for a long time. Thank you for all the vlogs. You and Sam are great.

You're the best, Jackie! You and Sam are so positive and your videos are so much fun and informative! We all love you!

Geauga Lake was AWESOME!!!!!

Hi guys enjoyed hearing all about your channel watch you all the time love every video and your excitement for what you do is awesome

Thank you for answering my question Jackie and Sam!

Yaay so happy I met you n sam … best elevator ride ever n realized whom I was with ❤❤❤❤

This was great Jackie and Sam thank you so much for sharing..

Love this video super enthused and both you and Sam are always amazing in your videos.

I remember going to Boardwalk and Baseball as a kid when the school my dad taught at here in Jacksonville was in the state playoffs. This was probably late 80's early 90's yep I'm old but I remember having fun that day and then my dad's school lost

Sam said Geauga Lake!!! That made my heart so happy. I grew up going to SeaWorld and Geauga Lake in Ohio. I miss those parks so very much. Loved the video ♥️

Love your videos Jackie 😊

I think you have an excellent videographer's eye, Jackie, better than most vloggers. Some of your montages are artistically brilliant and beautiful. It frustrates me that you don't have millions of subscribers! You deserve great success.

I love your videos and your love for life! I still hope to meet you one day in the parks. Our family lives in Orlando and are passholders at both Disney and universal. One day!!!

Zelda and chill! LOL! Great Q and A. ❤

You would’ve loved Opryland. We met Tanya Tucker there and had our photo taken with her. It was a great theme park. We loved it.

❤🎉 love this channel

This is such a fun video! Thanks for giving a cute setup tour! I can’t wait to see what adventure you go on next 🩷✨

I have been following you for a few years now. Love all your videos.

Hi Jackie! Love your Channel very much! Happy Wednesday. Send you a tons of love! I'm off today. Live in Woodbridge VA.

Loved this getting to know you vid, been watching your channel a while but hadn't noticed them before. Love your content and your whole vibe, one of my fav Florida vloggers. Also here for Sam, I am English too living in the US now, love his perspective and view points. He seems a fellow tech nerd like myself also.

Hoping you do the questions in the podcast as really interested in your answer to my question 🥰

Loved this vlog. We love everything Disney. Hope to see you again at the first Christmas party.

oh and go back to Holiday world! that place is my fav

Shout out to your editing work! It really conveys your personality and the places you visit.

❤❤❤❤❤ Love your Love

Hey Jackie, another great Q&A. Your videos and editing are superb though! (they have been for years!) your style is also so natural, informative and interesting! It was great to see your 100K plaque from RU-vid, especially as your now on the way to 200K ! I still don't know how you have the confidence to talk to camera in themepark's and other attractions, but we are glad you do! (I also dont know how you avoid being hounded by daft people trying to be in your videos, you must have a editing trick!) Have been a fan for years, will continue to be a fan, and always look forward to your next video! Thank you, we are sending you a ton of love back 😊

Definitely want to go to Dollywood! Used to live in the South (Alabama) and never made it up there. Now I’m in California and you’ve inspired me to want to get to that area! Looks absolutely beautiful in Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg!!! Love your content!!! And love all the unique places you take us to!!!

Omg can’t believe I missed the Q&A adore you and your channel Jackie ❤😊🎉

Glad to hear your story! Great channel! Like you, I also like Samantha Brown. 😊

I loved your "get to know me" video! I always wondered how you and Sam met. You are perfect for each other and he is a great addition to your vlogs👍 Much love to you both😊💖😊

Well your creative hobby is awesome my wife and I watch all the time and listen to your podcast your honesty and character goes well beyond your talents for vlogging and your the Queen of you tube so keep doing what you do and will always be blessed to watch ❣️😊

Love your videos. I especially love the montage at the end. Shows your creativity!

You and Sam are a delight!

i REALLY ENJOY LARNING ABOUT YOU AND SAM. I GREW UP IN SOUTH GEORGIA AND MOVED TO FLORIDA 3 TIMES. THE 3RD TIME WAS A CHARM..IT TOOK AND 'IVE LIVED HERE 30 YEARS. I ADMITTED THAT I AM ADDICTED TO YOUR CHANNEL. EVERY OPINION YOU EX[RESS I AGREE WITH AND WOULD LOVE TO SEE A VIDEO FROM YOU EVERY DAY. I GUESS THAT WOULD BE SELFISH OF ME BUT IT IS THE TRUTH. THANKS FOR ALL YOU DO AND KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.

This was great. I l❤ve your vlogging style. I was gonna ask when you heading back to Dollywood. Glad it will be soon as I always enjoy watching those trips. I cant believe you waited 10 hours for a ride. I thought a 4 hour wait just to see Figment was crazy. LOL 😅

Jackie I love your channel! You’re such a breath of fresh air. I love your channel and can’t wait to see it grow more. I love how dedicated to Disney and traveling all over it really helps when we go away! You’re the best and I love how down to earth you are and I love your honesty! Your videos make me happy! Thank you

Another great video my friend

I remember seeing you on a show once way back when. I was curious if that got you hooked on the vlog format. You certainly have a great personality for video and your joy and excitement really comes through into your videos.

Greetings Jackie I am also a Native from South Florida. Born and raised in Hollywood.

Love the video

Love you jackie

This video was awesome!! I did one of these on my channel also and had so much fun with it! Thank you so much for sharing your adventure with us and for taking time to answer my question! Also thank you for the Starbucks tips!!!

When you come back up to the Gatlinburg area, if you enjoy a good quality beer, definitely check out Iron Forge Brewery. Best beer in Severe county. Also the food is phenomenal!

👋 I started watching you since the pandemic and I love you and your style channel! You’re interesting, knowledgeable and your enthusiasm makes for great content. Plus your relaxed personality mixed with adding Sam to your vlogs makes watching a pleasure! You’re recapping at the end of your vlogs is awesome. Thanks for sharing yours and Sam’s life and adventures. Don’t change, just keep being you, your awesome!👍😁

Oh my gosh, I'm not techy but that is the coolest computer I've ever seen!

I remember Boardwalk and Baseball. We went there in 1987 which was my first time to Disney. back then they gave tons of extra stuff in the packages. We had food vouchers for several meals, free admission to Kennedy Space Center, Wet and Wild, and Boardwalk and Baseball. So we went down there and it was ok, but the place was nearly empty. You need people for excitement. It felt dull to a point as I remember. I would have liked to see it thrive and become a good park to go to. I never heard why it closed down. I was in Miami in 1988. My friend and I were in the right place at the right time and got to watch a scene being filmed for Miami Vice. It was a night scene in an alley between two buildings. I also got a couple of snapshots of Don Johnson as he left the building during a day time scene. We also drove down to Key West and I loved it. I haven't been back to Miami or Key West since 1988. I would love to go back though. I also love Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. Dollywood is an awesome park and I can't wait to get back up there to go again.

Love you and Sam! Have you guys gone to Tivoli in Copenhagen? That's an absolute must do! Plus, if you go in the summer it's light out almost all day and night

I love you and Sam!! I hope someday I get to meet you both when I'm at Epcot or another park! Great coupleIII

I love your channel by the way

Love the little backstory at the beginning of this! Also have been a writer since childhood and have been doing a little theme park blog since 2018 but have been nervous to ever try my hand at video. Who knows! Thanks for the inspiration :-)

Another great vid Jackie love your videos 😊

Wife and I finally got time to watch this video, and the first question was hers (EMMacdaniel2961), so cool. Enjoy your videos, always keeping are eyes open for you when visiting Walt Disney World parks ❤️

I like your enthusiasm and upbeat attitude about your journeys. I originally saw you with Paging Mr. Morrow, My husband and I are Disney Passholders since 2016 when we retired to Florida for the winter, I was interested in leaning more about you and Sam. You use the same computer as me and I've been using iMovie to do my editing of picture videos of my family. Final Cut is a product you really like, so if the opportunity arises that I want to do more, how does Final Cut do more for you. Mr Morrow just got a MacBookPro and is navigating iMovie now. Thanks for what you and Sam do, I enjoy watching...most recently loved your Moana exhibit visit in EPCOT. Can't wait to go do that soon.

Geauga Lake?!? Oh my. I live only 30 minutes from there and I hate that it’s no longer open because my son would absolutely love it.

I went to Opryland when I was a kid. It was a lot like dollywood. I also want to move to Tennessee. I love the gatlinburg area too.

I just watched this! Thank’s so much for mentioning me!! We loved meeting you! ❤❤

Brisket sliced! Yes.

I love that you are positive, even with yuk stuff that Disney does & your enthusiasm is infectious ❤

I went to Circus World when I was a kid and I loved the wooden roller coaster. I didn't really love the rest of it but it was very small in comparison to other theme parks. Boardwalk and Baseball was the same small size but still had the coaster. For nostalgia is would be fun but not something I would do again, if they were here. It sad that it's just a shopping center now.

ay!!! shoutout life in Florida!

Girl I just love your channel. You ,Nate and Adam got me through Chemo. I would watch you and dream of some day going to WDW. Well cancer has left the body and now we are saving for a vacation to WDW or Dollywood. Please keep the vlogs coming. You and Sam are great.....

I think these are my favorite type of videos. You’re a very interesting person Jackie, we all want to hear your backstory. Get some more insight on one of our favorite RU-vidrs!!!

Let Sam know, we went to Boardwalk and Baseball! Way back in about 1988 while HS sweethearts. He misses it greatly as a huge baseball fan. Across the I 4 intersection was a hotel with a huge Ted Williams mural.
