  • - Hi, we're Joel and Lia.

  • - And welcome back to our channel.

  • This video is all about how we've sort of

  • let our subscribers plan our Texas trip.

  • (upbeat vocal music)

  • - Basically, this is what happened.

  • We'd been planning during the day

  • a few days ago that we wanted to go to Texas.

  • We'd been thinking about it a while.

  • We were looking at flights,

  • and we filmed a video, and mentioned,

  • "Do you know what?

  • "We're about 95% sure we're gonna go to Texas."

  • - Then we put that video online,

  • and forgot about it, and then, later that day,

  • maybe an hour or two later,

  • we just booked the flights to Texas.

  • Then we were like, "Oh, we should probably let them know

  • "that we actually did that."

  • - We actually did do it.

  • We should've just booked it there and then.

  • - Then made the video.

  • - Then made the video, but we didn't.

  • This, I guess, is the official announcement,

  • we are going to Texas. - We're going to Texas.

  • Austin, Texas.

  • - Austin, Texas from the 24th of Jan.

  • - 'Til the 31st of Jan,

  • but we don't land back in the UK

  • until the first of Feb.

  • - The first of Feb, yeah.

  • - Fine, those are our dates,

  • and we've kind of been sent loads of ideas

  • of places to go, things we must see,

  • things we must do, and we wanted to,

  • firstly, thank everyone for their amazing emails,

  • and offers of places to stay.

  • People have offered us their homes.

  • It's been crazy.

  • - It's been incredible, the amount--

  • Texas is our second most-viewed state,

  • first California, and then Texas right behind it,

  • so we knew lots of you guys are from Texas,

  • but the amount of messages, YouTube comments,

  • Instagram DMs, Twitter messages, emails.

  • - It's been pretty amazing.

  • - List of things to do.

  • - Yeah, and we kind of feel a little bit overwhelmed by it,

  • but we are really, really grateful

  • for all of the suggestions,

  • and we're trying to read through everything,

  • but we're also trying to plan the trip

  • without, say, because we haven't got a car,

  • we're probably not gonna get a car,

  • so we're just making our way through them,

  • and I guess opening up to you guys about it

  • because you guys know best, for helping us plan.

  • - Not only are some of you guys from there

  • or from Texas, but you're used to the American culture

  • or way of life, but also, this trip is for you guys.

  • We're not just going to have a nice holiday in Texas.

  • We're going to create videos that,

  • hopefully, you guys will enjoy,

  • so we want you guys to choose what we do,

  • because we want you to watch the videos.

  • - Yeah, so there's a few things

  • that we thought that would work really well.

  • One thing we thought would be great

  • would be to go to a rodeo.

  • I think someone said that there's definitely one

  • in San Antonio on the weekend that we're there.

  • The weekend is the last weekend of January,

  • so if anyone knows of one in the last weekend of January

  • that we can go to, that we can use trains,

  • and find a way to a rodeo.

  • One thing we want to do is sort of dress up day

  • where we go and--

  • - Love that.

  • - Get some traditional clothing on.

  • - Be Texas-ified.

  • - Texas-ified, and film all of that.

  • These are things we want to check off.

  • We also mentioned, someone sent an email

  • about learning how to fire a gun.

  • Uh-oh, makeup or food?

  • - Lipstick, yeah.

  • - Oh, the whole time?

  • - Yeah, just tiny on the tip, so they wouldn't have noticed.

  • - Okay.

  • - What are friends for?

  • - What are friends for?

  • - The gun firing.

  • - The gun firing.

  • We want to go and fire guns at a gun range.

  • (Lia laughs)

  • - It sounds so weird saying that,

  • 'cause it's not something we've done here.

  • - 'Cause guns trigger us.

  • You know that guns trigger Brits.

  • We're not a fan of guns,

  • but we want to give it a go,

  • and you guys have told us that we should go

  • to a gun firing range, so we're gonna go (imitates gun)

  • Bang, bang.

  • - Bang, bang.

  • - Bang. - Bang.

  • - Pow, pow.

  • - I'm from Texas, yeah.

  • That's gonna be really fun, so we need some advice

  • on where the gun ranges are.

  • Is it quite popular?

  • Obviously, we don't have gun firing ranges in the UK,

  • so I'm like, "There's probably one

  • "in the entire of America,"

  • but there's probably loads.

  • Is there loads?

  • I don't know, where do we go?

  • - The only thing you can do over here

  • is clay pigeon shooting, and that's boring.

  • - It's, like, little pellets, really.

  • - Yeah, firing at little bits of clay.

  • - Yeah, and that's it.

  • - It's really boring.

  • - Really boring.

  • I'm not good at it, and it's a proper massive gun

  • that you put on your shoulder.

  • You go (imitates gun) and it hurts your shoulder.

  • It'd be nice to have a handgun.

  • You're just like (imitates gun)

  • - Is that what we're gonna learn with?

  • - Yeah.

  • - Oh, okay, yeah,

  • let's do it. - Like a spy,

  • and we shoot people, but on a paper.

  • - Oh, that's gonna be amazing, like in the films.

  • - Yeah, and we'll probably wear

  • the earphones and the glasses.

  • - Yeah, we want to film all of that.

  • - Also, one thing that I haven't said,

  • but I really want to go to something called a rage room.

  • - What's that?

  • - It's things that, I think, started in America,

  • which is actually a really good form of therapy, I've heard,

  • for people with anger issues.

  • Sorry, don't know why I'm laughing.

  • It's basically a room filled with old furniture

  • like a chair, loads of plates, a television,

  • and in there, there's a golf club,

  • there's a baseball bat, and you just go in there,

  • and you start whacking and smashing things up.

  • - You can do that on your own, Joel.

  • (Joel laughs)

  • - I really want to do it,

  • not that I'm an angry person, but I just want to smash a TV.

  • - You've definitely got, sorry, that's so you.

  • - But it's so funny.

  • - That is so the inner Joel

  • that no one sees 'cause he's so polite,

  • but you can go and smash up that room.

  • I'll film it from a door.

  • Just don't get anything near me.

  • I don't like chaos.

  • - You don't like chaos.

  • You'd love it.

  • You say that your daydream is that, one day,

  • to beat someone up, or at least be in a film where you--

  • - Beat someone up?

  • - That's what your dream is,

  • to be like a spy that's kicking ass

  • and stuff like that.

  • - Yeah, I mean, I'd hate to actually hurt someone

  • or anything, but I do want to be a spy ninja

  • in a film that's extremely,

  • basically like female Jackie Chan.

  • It would be the dream.

  • - Then this is your chance to do it in a rage room

  • and not hurt anyone.

  • - I don't want to smash up plates, or do riot club.

  • - But you're not hurting anyone.

  • - It's more about me being, like,

  • really tactile and really, like (breathes)

  • Karate vibes, that's more,

  • I'd like to be able to be that.

  • - Anyway, do they have rage rooms in Texas, in Austin?

  • 'Cause I want to do that.

  • Also, we probably won't end up doing it

  • because we'll wuss out, but we thought about going camping.

  • - No, we're not doing that.

  • - You said yeah.

  • - No, we said that we're not gonna go

  • unless it's a camp, like an actual--

  • - Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

  • Yeah, are there campsites in and around Austin?

  • Are there safe places to camp?

  • 'Cause it would be really cool, Joel and Lia go camping,

  • trying to put up a tent, trying to make a campfire.

  • It would be really funny.

  • - That would be funny.

  • (Joel laughs)

  • What's he like?

  • (both laugh)

  • What are we looking for, Joel?

  • What do we need help with?

  • We basically need help with an agenda,

  • so almost, like, day by day.

  • Obviously, lots of this needs to be stuff that we can film.

  • If anyone knows anyone that's able

  • to help us get a few of these activities booked

  • in the diary, that would be really helpful.

  • - Are there traditional Texan activities?

  • I don't know, if you come to London, you can do something

  • where you go over the O2.

  • The O2's a massive dome arena,

  • and you can walk over the top of it,

  • or there's just things that you can do,

  • or, like, the London Eye, going around that huge--

  • Are there classic things to do in Austin

  • that's like, "Oh, you've gotta do this,"

  • that's an experience that we can film?

  • - Exactly, that's the questions we have, guys.

  • We don't want it to just be wasted,

  • 'cause we're only there for a short amount of time.

  • Obviously, we'll probably go back at some point.

  • We don't know when, but there's a few things

  • that we need to tick off the list.

  • - Some people said about a store HEB.

  • I don't know if you just call it HEB,

  • or if you just called it H-E-B.

  • People have been like, "You've got to go there

  • "and film your experience,"

  • so we've got some idea of stores that we want to go to.

  • What were some other ideas?

  • We wanted to dress up, we wanted to go to a rodeo,

  • we thought about potentially camping.

  • Food is obviously really good.

  • - Food and drink, I think that would be--

  • - Like Tex Mex.

  • People say you go to San Antonio for genuine,

  • really good food, and margaritas, and stuff.

  • - Okay, we can make that happen,

  • but that feels far away from where we are.

  • We can double that up with something

  • when we go on a day trip one day.

  • See, all of this?

  • This is my least favorite part

  • of any holiday, is the planning.

  • - Yeah, I don't like the planning.

  • That's why beach holidays are really easy,

  • 'cause you're just like,

  • "What am I gonna do?

  • "Sunbathe, read."

  • - Yeah, and then I'm gonna go upstairs,

  • get showered, get ready, and go for dinner somewhere.

  • - But this isn't a holiday.

  • It's fun. - It's kind of a fun thing,

  • but we're going there to get as much content as possible

  • to release the Texas series on our channel,

  • so it'll be like, Texas video, Texas video.

  • If that's not what you're interested in,

  • just mute the channel for a bit.

  • - Yeah, it's fine.

  • - It's fine.

  • - But we do want to make our way around.

  • - And then we'll do the next thing.

  • - Yeah, we'll keep going 'round.

  • We've got plans, we've got potential work plans

  • in both Florida and California hopefully coming up,

  • so there might be similar things we do there.

  • - What months are they?

  • - I think March and April.

  • - Right, okay.

  • - I think Florida in March,

  • and California in April, I think,

  • but obviously, we want to go to other states as well.

  • We would like to go to middle America.

  • I don't know what that is,

  • but I've heard a lot about it.

  • I think it's Wisconsin, Minnesota, Wyoming.

  • - We did accent--

  • No, what did we do?

  • We chatted about that before.

  • Yeah, we're ready to explore that.

  • - We'd like to, but yeah,

  • so we've got grand plans, lots of plans.

  • - But we need some help,

  • so if anyone's able to help, that would be amazing.

  • - Yeah, in fact, those of you

  • that have already emailed us, we will get back to you,

  • and we will be, not just email,

  • but commented and sent us messages,

  • we will get back to you.

  • If we don't get back to you, we have read it,

  • and we're taking it into consideration.

  • (Lia mumbles)

  • (both mumble)

  • (Lia mumbles)

  • - Really appreciate it when people are like,

  • "I guess you probably think I'm probably a stranger,"

  • but then they send their LinkedIn page,

  • and it's really sweet 'cause you're like,

  • I believe you, that you're a real person.

  • I believe that you're one of the legends,

  • and you're not some crazy person

  • that wants to hurt us.

  • A few people asking about meet and greet,

  • which is, I guess, another story.

  • We've not made a decision on that.

  • Obviously, the main purpose of going there

  • is to film videos, so we don't really want

  • to do a whole day of meet and greet,

  • but I'm sure we'll probably see people there.

  • We're gonna be going 'round.

  • - Definitely, I'm sure we'll bump into people,

  • and we might organize something small,

  • but we'll just work it out.

  • Because, just to be completely transparent,

  • it's just security issues.

  • We've got both of our parents saying to us,

  • "Don't tell anyone where you're going.

  • "Don't reveal your location.

  • "Don't meet up with strangers."

  • We're trying to be like, "No,"

  • but we feel really close to you guys,

  • but then, on the other hand, we have to remember

  • that anyone could be watching this video,

  • as we know from hate mail, guys.

  • - Not everyone in the world is a nice person, obviously.

  • 90% of the people that watch these

  • are real, honest, genuine people,

  • but there are probably people that don't like us,

  • so it's a bit of a risk

  • to say we're gonna be in this place at this time

  • to do a meet and greet.

  • At the moment, without any security,

  • our management aren't coming, we're just coming on our own,

  • it's a bit risky, so if there was a way

  • that that could be organized in a safe way,

  • and if enough people were interested--

  • Obviously, we wouldn't do it if no one was to come.

  • If enough people were interested,

  • then we would organize some sort of ticketed event,

  • but yeah, that's kind of where we're at at the moment.

  • If anyone's got any genius ideas--

  • - Yeah, for all of us to stay safe,

  • 'cause it's not just us, but if lots of people did turn up,

  • we'd then probably get in trouble

  • with the council or the police,

  • to be like, "You can't do this here."

  • It's safety for us, but also safety

  • for everyone who potentially might turn up.

  • Yeah, like Lia said, if any of you

  • have got any solutions to that, let us know,

  • 'cause we're still trying to work that out.

  • Hopefully, we will just bump into lots of you downtown.

  • I love saying downtown.

  • - Downtown.

  • - We don't have that word in the UK.

  • Downtown London, we don't, we just say central London.

  • - I know, but in the Midlands,

  • we'd be like, "Where have you been?

  • "Oh, you've been down town."

  • - Yeah, but don't you say that,

  • "Oh, I've been down town," but they call it downtown.

  • - Yeah, we don't say that.

  • - We don't say downtown.

  • - I love that then.

  • Downtown.

  • - Downtown.

  • - Downtown Austin.

  • - I was in downtown Birmingham.

  • (both laugh)

  • I was in downtown Coventry.

  • - Yeah, yeah.

  • That's kind of it, really.

  • We're going really, really soon,

  • so we're keen to get this itinerary put together A.S.A.P.

  • as money-efficiently as possible, is that a word?

  • - Yes.

  • - Basically, just not super, super expensive activities.

  • I'm sure we can find a way.

  • There's always a way, isn't there?

  • - Where there's a will--

  • - [Both] There's a way.

  • - Where there's a Joel and Lia--

  • - [Both] There's a way.

  • - Also, another thing, because we want

  • to make the most of our time out there,

  • and to reach more wonderful people of Texas or Austin,

  • we would love to do a radio show or something,

  • like we did with Preston and Steve from Philadelphia.

  • - In their Philadelphia radio show.

  • - Do you guys know, from Austin, Texas,

  • or even if you're not, do you know

  • of any local radio stations that are based there,

  • or anyone we could reach out to

  • to be like, "Hey, we'd love to come

  • "and chat about our YouTube channel"?

  • - Yeah, we could do a little collab

  • like what we did with Preston and Steve.

  • If anyone's not aware of that, we'll link it down below.

  • It was just a really great way

  • of us cross-promoting our audiences with theirs,

  • so that's something, we'd be up for doing

  • a little bit of PR stuff if there's any going.

  • - Yeah, so let us know.

  • We just thought you guys are the best people to ask.

  • That's why this video is happening.

  • - Questions for Texas done.

  • (both laugh)

  • If you like this video, guys, please subscribe.

  • I'm sure this is probably just

  • for the loyal people watching, really.

  • - I'm sure it is.

  • Subscribe, we post videos--

  • - [Both] Thrice weekly.

  • - If you're new here, we're Joel and Lia.

  • We like to make videos.

  • Go and watch something more put together.

  • - Yeah, go do that.

  • - Go and do that.

  • - We'll see you soon.

  • I can't believe we're going to Texas in,

  • like, two and a bit weeks. - Oh my god.

  • We need to choose our seat number.

  • - Oh, yeah, have they sent us a link yet?

  • - Not sure.

  • - They need to.

  • I have to have an aisle seat.

  • - He needs that, he needs to sit in the aisle.

  • - I will go mental if I don't.

  • I get claustrophobic.

  • - Yeah, well, it's a real thing.

  • I shouldn't eye-roll.

  • - You're full of eye rolls today.

  • - I shouldn't eye-roll.

  • It's just like, yeah, you need your space, don't you?

  • - Yeah, people that don't get claustrophobic

  • don't understand, but I can't sit in the middle seat.

  • The middle seat is the worst.

  • The window seat is not as bad because you've got a window,

  • and you can see outside, but I have to be

  • on the aisle seat. - I don't know

  • if I'm claustrophobic.

  • I'm just, if I'm in the middle, I'm like,

  • "Oh, this sucks," but I'm not, like,

  • "I'm a celeb, get me out of here."

  • - I'm not, I just, literally,

  • my heart rate starts beating faster, I start sweating,

  • and I literally start having a panic attack,

  • so I can't do it.

  • - We'll get you in the aisle.

  • - Yeah, I need to be in the aisle.

  • - We'll get you in the aisle.

  • If we get allocated, and it's, like, window, middle,

  • you'll obviously have the window then.

  • - Yeah, I'd probably prefer the window

  • 'cause you can see out. - Yeah, of course.

  • You can have the window, and you can face that way.

  • - I can do a bit of a swap,

  • and then, as soon as I start shaking,

  • then I know I need to swap.

  • - No, no, you can just stay by the window

  • without the shakes.

  • - There'd better be TVs this time.

  • - No, probably won't be, budget airline.

  • - No it's not, it's American Airline, British Airways.

  • - BA.

  • - [Both] BA.

  • - I think it's BA fulfilled by American Airlines, I think.

  • - There we go. - There'll be TV screens.

  • Fantastic. - Fantastic.

  • - Cheers. - Cheers to that.

  • - Clink. - Clink.

  • (Joel laughs)

  • - Cheers.

  • - See you soon, guys.

  • - Bye. - Bye-bye.

  • - Delicious.

- Hi, we're Joel and Lia.
