  • - Hi, we're Joel and Lia.

  • - And welcome back to our channel.

  • This video is a little bit of story time for you.

  • We got this book from a viewer

  • and it's called the Meaning of Life.

  • Oh, no, it's called-- - No, the Book of Questions.

  • - The Book of Questions.

  • She also sent a book called the Meaning of Life.

  • - It's actually The Meaning of Liff.

  • That's the thing. - Ah, The Meaning of Liff.

  • - 'Cause when we first opened these as a vlog,

  • our last John and Lia vlog of vlogmas,

  • we opened these and as soon as I saw it,

  • The Meaning of Life and The Book of Questions

  • I thought it was a religious book

  • and I was like oh no, it's a viewer trying

  • to convert us to their religion.

  • - Yeah.

  • - But, it's not, they're just books.

  • So this one has, what is it, the words?

  • - This is a book all about words that

  • can't be explained in the English language,

  • is that right? - Yeah.

  • So like this one hu-nah or hue-nah

  • is the result of coming to the wrong decision.

  • But this book, The Book of Questions,

  • has loads of questions in, that aren't designed like trivia,

  • they're designed to get to know yourself better.

  • So they're like prompts - Oh my gosh.--

  • - About life, money, sex,

  • all these other things-- - All the things.

  • - To try and know what your beliefs are on things.

  • So we thought it was a really cool idea

  • to incorporate into our video.

  • So Loraine if you're watching thank you for these books.

  • - Thank you Loraine.

  • - It's gonna help with our channel.

  • - Starting now.

  • - Okay so, question number one.

  • - Oh, we're starting at the beginning?

  • - Yeah. - I thought we would just,

  • see that's already, we already differ on that, don't we?

  • I'd be like this. - Ah, no.

  • No, 'cause then you know,

  • no it has to be from the beginning.

  • - Are you kidding?

  • - Yeah.

  • - Okay, so we have to start at the beginning,

  • that's so boring.

  • - It's mainly for our channel,

  • as in, because then we'll know where we've got up to.

  • - Oh okay, fine, okay, well done, nice and organized.

  • (both laughing)

  • I'm like one, two, three, that one.

  • - Well, we can but then-- - No, no, no, no we'll lose--

  • - Okay, we'll lose track. - Track, you're right.

  • - You're right we'll lose track.

  • - Okay, so the first question is

  • for a person that you loved deeply

  • would you be willing to move to a distant country

  • knowing that there would be little chance

  • of seeing your friends or family again?

  • - Oh.

  • Well if I love-- - So would you

  • basically move to a foreign country

  • for the love of your life knowing that you

  • probably wouldn't see your friends and family ever again?

  • - Ever again?

  • - Yeah, that's what it says.

  • - We need to iron out some creases right now.

  • (Joel laughing)

  • If we're gonna play this game we can't do the,

  • oh, but I'll go home at Christmas.

  • You can't do that-- - No, no.

  • - Oh, but I would fly home.

  • - No we have to say this--

  • - Literally. - Question literally.

  • So the question is saying there's little chance

  • of you seeing your friends and family again.

  • - No I wouldn't do it,

  • would you? - No, no I wouldn't, no.

  • 'Cause I don't think you're ever that in love,

  • that quickly, that you would sacrifice

  • family and friends for.

  • - Yeah, I don't think I'd do that.

  • I want to be close to, because if I'm gonna

  • start a family with someone,

  • what's the use in being (laughs)...

  • This sounds serious.

  • What's the use in being in a different country?

  • Who's gonna babysit.

  • - Yeah, exactly

  • - [Both] Who's gonna look after the kids?

  • - It's true - That's so mean.

  • - No, I know what you mean.

  • You want a community vibe. - It helps to be near...

  • I like community vibes.

  • I like loads of people.

  • So if there is gonna be just me and the person

  • and the family we create in a foreign country

  • no where near anyone, that's just gonna

  • send me into-- (child screaming)

  • I'm sorry. - Excuse me.

  • - But we're trying to talk to the legends.

  • - Not in Chelsea. - Ridiculous.

  • Not in Chelsea.

  • - Anyway.

  • - Link to Airbnb credit in the description,

  • promise the screaming children won't be here.

  • (Joel laughing)

  • If you were to book this Airbnb.

  • Guys, if you are enjoying this video so far

  • don't forget to click subscribe.

  • - And click the notification bell as well

  • if you want to be alerted every time we post a video.

  • We only post thrice weekly anyway,

  • so it's not gonna interrupt your,

  • whatever you do. - Yeah, whatever you do.

  • (both laughing)

  • Back to the video.

  • - To link on from this, do you believe,

  • it's not a question in the book,

  • do you believe-- - Alright.

  • - In love at first?

  • No, not love at first sight.

  • Do you believe that there's only one person

  • that you can fall in love with that you're meant to be with?

  • Like the one,

  • do you believe in the one? - No.

  • I don't believe in the one.

  • - No, me neither, so then I'm just like,

  • just find someone else

  • 'cause you'll fall in love with someone else.

  • - In your country. - Yeah.

  • - In your neighborhood. - Yeah.

  • - Find someone closer. - Find someone.

  • - But do you guys-- - Make it happen.

  • - Believe in the one?

  • Let us know in the comments below,

  • I'd like to know whether we're common

  • in thinking that you can fall in love

  • multiple times in your life.

  • - Yeah, I think so.

  • - I think you can. - I don't think there's

  • the one and then that's it.

  • - No.

  • - And then if you lose them it's game over.

  • - No.

  • - I think it's a bit different if you're widowed.

  • And you've had the love of your life,

  • and then that person dies,

  • and you don't want to find anyone else,

  • and you're not interested in that.

  • - Oh yeah, that's different.

  • - 'Cause that's literally like you've built

  • your life with them. - Yeah.

  • - I think that I kind of believe in the one

  • after you've spent all of that time with them.

  • Do you know what I mean? - Okay.

  • But do you believe that there is one person

  • that you are set out to be with

  • that someone, somewhere, whatever God you believe in,

  • or whatever, even if you don't,

  • do you believe that they have gone,

  • this is the person for you

  • and you're gonna meet. - No, I don't think so.

  • No, I think that person becomes that person.

  • - Yeah.

  • - But I don't think that God, or whoever,

  • was like you're, Joel was meant to be with Lia.

  • - Yeah. - I don't believe in that.

  • - Well because I think if that did happen

  • all the people that we know that are in love

  • so like for me, like my parents, I know,

  • I'm like what are the chances

  • that they were both born in the same country

  • and they're both-- - What are the chances?

  • - You know, lived like an hour away from each other.

  • If it was truly the one then surely everyone

  • would have their one, would be in another country.

  • - Yeah, that's so true.

  • There's a really good episode of Black Mirror

  • where, the dating one-- - Yeah, the dating.

  • - Where they find out their expiring day.

  • - Yeah! - That's so good.

  • - That was really good - Don't know which one,

  • don't know what it's called

  • but I'll find it. - I can't remember.

  • - And I can maybe leave it in the comments.

  • - Yeah, it's really-- - It's really good.

  • - Black mirror is a great TV series.

  • - So alright what's the next question Joel?

  • - Right, you go into the next.

  • - Okay, number two is

  • do you believe in ghosts or evil spirits?

  • Would you be willing to spend a night alone

  • in a remote house that is supposedly haunted?

  • - So I have a story about this.

  • - Okay.

  • - I do believe in ghosts and evil spirits.

  • - Same.

  • - I believe they're more evil spirits rather than ghosts.

  • - Same.

  • - And, so anyway, I got an acting job,

  • my first acting job after we were at Rada,

  • was for the National Geographic channel,

  • it was like a, you know like the, reenacting things?

  • - Yeah, yeah, I remember it. - So basically it was

  • a story about these American boys

  • that went hiking in Alaska and they got attacked

  • by a grizzly bear and it was about their survival.

  • And so they were recounting their story,

  • and we were acting it out.

  • So anyway, I was very excited,

  • went to Wales, the Brecon Beacons,

  • that apparently looks like Alaska.

  • - Apparently. - Apparently.

  • - On a budget. - On a budget.

  • - [Both] On a budget.

  • - I'm on a budge.

  • - That's gotta stick.

  • Stay.

  • Guys, we can't eat here we're on a budge.

  • - We're on a budge.

  • Sorry I'm on a budge. - Budge.

  • - Anyway so we went there and we turned up

  • at this massive castle, the taxi arrived.

  • And it turns out it's the most haunted hotel in Wales.

  • And we arrived there and in the reception

  • it had about the most haunted bedroom,

  • I think it was bedroom 18 or something

  • and it was the most haunted bedroom in the hotel.

  • The people from Most Haunted,

  • which is a TV program here in the UK,

  • I don't know if you have it elsewhere.

  • Refused to stay in that bedroom.

  • They tried staying there for the night

  • and they left halfway through

  • because it was so haunted and so terrifying

  • they couldn't stay there.

  • So anyway, we then get allocated our rooms

  • and of course what number room am I in?

  • - 18. - 18.

  • The most haunted hotel in the country

  • 'cause it's most haunted. - Did you know this after?

  • - No this was during.

  • - Right, you knew that whilst you got there,

  • you were like oh, 18, that's the haunted room.

  • - Yeah.

  • - And then you got-- - And so I arrived--

  • - Given your number, 18. - Yeah, 18.

  • And the other people in the castle were like 17, 16,

  • they were down the hall and I was like of course

  • I'm in the most haunted room on my first acting job,

  • away from my family for the first time ever.

  • I'm already nervous about this acting job,

  • let alone sleeping-- - Oh my gosh.

  • - In this room.

  • But anyway, turns out there's no really good story.

  • It wasn't haunted and I didn't believe it, but.

  • - Were you knocked out?

  • Did you sleep well that night?

  • - I did, I had two nights there and I did sleep well.

  • When I read the book in the hotel room,

  • there were stories from it so they were capitalizing on it

  • 'cause I think the only people that sleep in this room

  • are the ones who love ghosts and stuff,

  • and it was like the shower turned on

  • in the middle of the night.

  • I saw a figure at the bottom of my bed.

  • I had sleep paralysis.

  • Like I couldn't wake. - No stop.

  • - And someone was over me. - I can't.

  • So I was just like oh my gosh, how am I gonna sleep here?

  • But because I believe that evil spirits

  • and because I believe in God,

  • I thought, you know, if I pray about it

  • and get God to deal with it then it's fine.

  • Bad spirits will just go

  • and I didn't have any issues at all.

  • - Yeah.

  • - But, yeah, crazy to think that people

  • have those experiences in that room.

  • - Yeah, that is nuts. - And I was terrified.

  • - That's nuts, I believe in spirits too.

  • - Do you?

  • - I believe that there are people

  • who are connected more so than others.

  • So I believe that mediums can access the spirit world

  • but normal people that don't have that gift,

  • I think it is a gift, isn't it?

  • Or it's just like, I think that they obviously can't.

  • Why do I think this?

  • I don't know if I want to share this story.

  • I think I might save it for another video.

  • - Okay.

  • - Because it's basically about a time

  • where I truly believed that I was possessed

  • by my friend's ex boyfriend.

  • - Possessed by the boyfriend? (laughs)

  • - No, like. (laughs)

  • I think he...

  • - Oh, he spoke to you. - Yeah.

  • - Sorry, I thought you meant you became the boyfriend.

  • (Lia laughing)

  • (mimicking possession) - Like, oh hello.

  • - No, it's a really sad story actually.

  • So a friend, her ex boyfriend had committed suicide

  • and their spirit, I think, came through me to talk to her.

  • But I'll save that for another video

  • because I think I need permission to tell that story.

  • - Okay, well, let us know if you want to hear it.

  • - If you want to hear that story, let us know.

  • I was just in complete disbelief,

  • I didn't know what the hell was happening to me.

  • But this was at Takita Wolf actually.

  • - Yeah.

  • Well 'cause obviously I'm psychic as well.

  • - Yeah, so Joel's psychic.

  • - If you want us to tell the story about me being psychic

  • then let us know in the comments below.

  • We've got so many stories.

  • - So many stories.

  • - We've never really spoken about stories

  • in our lives before. - Oh, no?

  • - There's so much.

  • So the next question is if you could spend one year

  • in perfect happiness but afterwards would remember nothing

  • of the experience would you do so?

  • If not, why not?

  • - If I could have a year of being really happy all the time.

  • - Yeah but then the next year you wouldn't remember

  • any of it, would you still do it?

  • - Yeah, definitely. - Really?

  • - I think I would.

  • I would have no memory of it so even if someone was like,

  • you had the best year of your life,

  • I have have no memory of it. - You couldn't remember.

  • - But I'd love that because then maybe other people

  • or whoever was involved in that year

  • would be like constantly reminding me of these times

  • and maybe I'd be like yeah whatever, whatever.

  • But I'd be like really we did what?

  • (both laughing)

  • I'd love that. - Do you think?

  • I think I'd hate it 'cause I think, life,

  • the only thing you take with you is memories,

  • experiences are great to have and you only get memories

  • by having experiences.

  • But, you carry your experiences, your memories

  • with you much longer than experiences.

  • So to have a year of no memory of this pure happiness.

  • - Yeah.

  • - I would rather have some memories of really bad times

  • but some of really good,

  • than just no memories of anything good.

  • - You are allowed to have good memories after

  • or does it say you have to-- - Yeah.

  • - Live the rest of your life in...

  • - No, no, you can have good memories after

  • but I wouldn't want a whole year of no memories.

  • That's like to me, a whole year of my life gone.

  • - To me, I've got that anyway

  • 'cause my memory's really horrible, that's fine.

  • If someone is like what did you do 2014?

  • I'm like, can't tell you. - Don't know.

  • - I can not tell you what I did.

  • Like, that's fine.

  • - Yeah. - I was like genuinely,

  • I'm just like, no memories. - No idea.

  • - Someone was like, oh, you guys should show us

  • around your hometowns and where you grew up

  • and I'm like my memory is so bad.

  • Well I left at like 15, 16 to go to boarding school

  • and I'm like but I didn't get my independence

  • until I left home so my memories at home

  • are just wake up and go to school

  • and come back and eat dinner.

  • - Do your homework.

  • - And go Greek school on Saturday, that's it.

  • What am I gonna show them?

  • - Yeah.

  • - So, I'll be fine - You'll be fine.

  • - To have a year wiped.

  • You wouldn't, but I'd be fine. - A year of happiness.

  • - But yeah I'd be like cool. - That's good.

  • - Yeah, well that's good.

  • That's good, we've got a differing opinion.

  • - Yeah, right.

  • - Yeah, I just think it would be,

  • I think that's part of the joy of life

  • is having really dark, horrible times,

  • especially as like creative though.

  • - Yeah. - I think 'cause I'm getting

  • more into writing and obviously

  • both with being actors and stuff,

  • I think we need to use those terrible experiences

  • in what we do. - Yeah.

  • - And it does make us who we are,

  • so I would rather have bad experiences.

  • - A year of normal.

  • - Normal experiences, yeah. - Yeah, yeah, okay, cool.

  • So join us next week or next time we do this series

  • 'cause we're going to discuss this question.

  • You discover your wonderful one-year-old child

  • is because of a mix up at the hospital not yours.

  • (Joel gasping)

  • Would you want to exchange the child to correct the mistake?

  • - Okay.

  • - Well that is a juicy question.

  • - That's really good.

  • I can't wait to get on to that.

  • - We'll save that for the next story time.

  • - Yep, so come back. - About that time I had child

  • and it got mixed up, guys.

  • - Guys, let us know if you enjoyed this video.

  • We really love this.

  • It gives us a chance to put

  • a bit more of ourselves out there

  • and discuss deeper things with you guys.

  • Let us know if you enjoyed it,

  • if you want to see more of it.

  • If you don't, too bad, we're doing it.
