    Jordan, thank you so much. Been watching you for a long time. This one is my favorite ever. Incredible. Lifelong Reds fan as well. Got to see Johnny play starting in 1975 my first Reds game through 83. He was never the same according to him after lung surgery following the 1972 season. But even so he was still the best catcher in the league 73 till the end.
    I have met Johnny got a photo with him . He was great. His oldest son Bobbie used to set up at a card show I always attended in Sharonville. He was super nice looked like a LBer. Big guy. Sorry for rambling. Thank you so much.

    Never was a big sports fan, but I know who Johnny Bench is. Always neat to find out someone's humble beginnings, and to see how much of an impact he made on his small town. Knowing that a celebrity called your town home is pretty exciting, also lets kids know that they have a chance at making it big if they want. The small town I live in was once home to Emmett Kelley and they have quite a collection of him here. I hear they are bringing back the Emmett Kelley days, can't wait to attend. Great video as always, love seeing Jah, hope he is feeling better.

    The general store at the beginning of your vlog is where the fart in the phone booth scene in the movie “Rainman” was filmed. North of there a few miles is where the mother and the kids lived where Raymond insisted in watching The People’s Court. My parents grew up in Binger and knew Johnny Bench.

    Hi Jordan i'm a newer fan of your channel enjoying watching you very much.I'm a diehard baseball fan like yourself,i'm a huge Detroit Tigers fan.I got to see former Reds manager Sparky Anderson manage my tigers for many games.My 2nd MLB game was your Reds At My 2nd fav team the then Expos in Montreal.The game was in 1983 and was hoping to see Johnny Bench who was still playing with Cincinnati in what was his last ever season,unfortunately for me he wasn't in the starting lineup.Ironically in my 1st mlb game in Detroit the prior year Detroit was hosting Boston and i'd hopped to see Carl Yastrzemski in his last season.You guessed it,he was not in the lineup that day.

It's amazing to actually get to watch you vlog theses famous people's home towns. I live maybe 20 miles from the hometown of Dan Blocker who most people know as Hoss Cartwright on Bonanza. His hometown has a museum that is very interesting and I have also been to his final resting place. Steve from visiting gravesites with Steve has been there. But you probably already know that since yall are friends.
