Love your videos Captain especially of Center City and your walks with Rick the Puppy…I am disabled now and loved walking around Philly and now since I can’t do it anymore, I can see everything through your eyes..Thanks, Captain and keep the videos comin’
R.I.P. Trocedero! I can relive my youth though your vids. I'll visit Philly again someday.
WOW; This video bring me lot's of memories, .,. When i was living & Working in Philly ,back in the 80's until 2000; so many stores and Market St , Spruce St., Liberty Bell, Chestnut St, City Hall, and much more,,, Thank you you John Mr. Captain,, for you dedication and history talk,, keep the good work, stay safe as well ,,, I do see, something different in center city,, back day's was more traffic and peoples, walking and outside concerts and dancing , even drinking ,,, Probably ,because the time that you choose to take the videos,. still ,, Philly has lot's of histories to remember no matter what are the stories ,,, the're are always something good to tell to the grand childs,, and family, ,,
Yes ..Up until the pandemic hit.., then things got weird, businesses closed, and crime increased. Hopefully the new Mayor and regime can change things for the better, cause the Kinney administration sucked.
The Centennial Bell went off perfectly , Cuzz
Hey Philly Captain “Here We Are” in Sydney, Australia - you may recall we met you on June 30 last year @ the Phillies 🎉game with July 4 drone & fireworks show. Loved watching your unedited scoot - you went past our accommodation “the Windsor Suites” and visited the sites we visited on our whistle stop two day visit last year - Independence Hall, Liberty Bell, Franklin Park, Reading Terminal such wonderful memories. Thanks so much Philly Captain & Let’s Go Phillies!!🎉🎉🎉
You do have a Passion for American History!
Another great video!! Love the unedited scoots!
when I miss my wandering throughout Philly days, I know I can always check out your channel and feel better.
Thank you for what you do, Captain!
I've been living in Philly since the late 90's & living in CC for about ten, I learned a couple cool things about my own little neighborhood through your video. We probably attended the same shows at the Troc & we are both connected to Long In the Tooth. Thanks for the great videos, man.
This was the first time I got to see City Hall not have that netting on the ceiling to keep the debris from falling on your head. It's like a different world!
> 9:09
Love our Founding Fathers! Great video.
Standing ovation
I think i know more about Philadelphia than i do my own town. Keep up the hard work, Mr. The Philly Capt
Nice scoot! Wore my Phillies shirt to the Winston-Salem Dash game last night and talked to two attendants who had lived in Philly. One was telling me about when no buildings were taller than City Hall.
It was a gentleman’s agreement not to build buildings higher than the brim of William Penn,s hat… so Billy Penn could always look over his city…
Oh my gosh the captain is magical, he speaks about liking the video and the like button illuminates [around 22:20 ish] . I am blown away, never seen that before.
11:24 - stairway entrance to City Hall Station of Broad Street Subway and Market-Frankford Subway
Very nice video! Thank you. Try to check out the Stotesbury Mansion sometime at 1923 Walnut. A hidden gem. ☮ & ❤ my Philly!
3:33 - I think this is where I came to get a Pennsylvania birth certificate a few years ago.
8th street
Enjoyed the extended scoot and le tour des squares. #StandingOvation
My Troc list: Slayer, Gwar, Monster Magnet, S.O.D.
That was the only place I wouldn't wear any type of jacket or coat, even in the dead of winter. Hottest place on earth.
We probably went to some of the same shows! I saw Gwar there a lot (even got to see DBX upstairs at the Troc), Slayer once, Mercyful Fate, and a ton of other bands. There's a spot on the balcony that pushes out cool air that if you were in that spot, you were the only one not dying from heat exhaustion. I'm happy to say my little band played there once (upstairs).
I was at Slayer in 98. And that SOD gig as well.
I can see you LOVE Philadelphia, I do too.
Thoroughly enjoyed this. Thank you Captain. I was born and raised in Philly. Lived there for twenty three years. I now live on the West coast. Miss Philly a lot. Thank you sir.
Yes, we moved away from Philly, and always knew to return which we did last week. The Philly vibe is the most unique in the world.😊
Hey Philly Captain great scoot video & more in Center City Phila..Your unedited like your other videos, the very best always..Enjoy & TOODLES...
I like the unedited scoots
I love your comment on taking a train to new Jersey
A great evening scoot
I aggre with you, Captain. Basketball just only deserves the last 2 minutes. Especially for the game yesterday, Bucks versus Pacers.
i just stumbled onto your page. I love it!!! So entertaining :)
HOLLYWOOD VIDEO?
Great video you did around all the best locations, that I always walk past but I have learned so much from your perspective. Now I am going to walk just like you, I go there when I haven't been there in a month. Feel like I am missing something from working there on South Street hanging in clubs and going to school for fashion. Your accent in Philadelphia is very authentic. Toodles!
Thank you for the scoot tour 😊
H2O. Hey captain. Don’t forget your roots!!!!!!
Howdy! Thank you!
I use to work at the troc
The welcome gate
I like the longer un edited scoots

The old round house should be condos for convicts.

Scooter has mad battery life!
Pizza sounds like a good plan.

I use to love a good Philly troc show I drove down from CT a few times to see H2O at the Troc
Hey Ma! He’s eating a hot sausage inside a pretzel with Uncle Eddie!
The roundhouse was designed to look like a pair of handcuffs from the air
The archway is a "Friendship Gate".
The Troc. Saw in not any order.. SOD. Slayer. Rev Horton Heat. Clutch. Among others
Nooo I wish you were still in the valley😢
Tom Green! Freddy Got Fingered is the best movie ever. The anti Gone With the Wind.
I took a jefferson helicopter from Lansdale Jefferson when I had a brain aneurysm and almost died but they got me down there damn fast and saved me.
Have I been away so long? The police station is boarded up! The Troc is gone! Damn. :(
Omg. I just rewatched this. Uncle Ed. I so remember seeing that on the news. Talk about fn creep!!
Is WMMR around there
No, they're out in Bala Cynwd., right outside the City Have been, for a long while now.
City Hall is absolutely Gorgeous!!
36:47 - Fuck that Wendys....in particular....and a hot dog stuffed inside a pretzel!!! Love this video and keep up the great work Captain Philly!!!!
I was a small kid when the Roundhouse was built. When I was 12 I went on a tour of the place. All I can say is that it was a totally idiotic building,not a straight wall in the place! I say tear it down and build something normal! This turd has been around way too long.
Feel bad for that kid thinking history is fake
"...Not that anyone wants to go to new jersey.." So not only do we New Yorkers trash on NJ, but even Philadelphians do it too 😂
Hey Captain... True of False? I was always told by people that the city can build buildings taller than Billy Penn. But it has to be behind the direction of his gaze. So taller buildings are always "behind" Billy Penn.
That could be true. I've never heard of that rule before.
Fuck that Wendy's 😂
i thought they were glory holes in city hall.My bad
