Reminds me of an old Irish poem I often think of from the mid 1800's. I don't remember the poet, but it goes Very Bright Guiding Light This is why I am happy tonight.
He taught me all about the super market. Favorite episode. I love that he got to have his birthday ice cream, even after being grifted into buying a ham that threw his budget.
I cannot believe you have THE Joe Pera on the channel. This is the most surprising appearance of all time. I absolutely love Joe's show and am so grateful he's still doing it. Thanks everyone! Dave J
@@allentoyokawa9068 Joe basically plays an old man in a young man's {body? no, not really) world. He has upper midwest (or UP in fact) sensibilities with appreciation for simple things: trees, Christmas trees, waterfalls, pumpkins, bean arches, and, oddly enough, people. I can't say you'll like his show but I do. The juxtaposition with other shows on the TV channel it resides really makes it stand out.
@@dj-kq4fz was he been genuine here or playing his TV character? I commented thinking he was genuinely interested and willing to learn and now I'm not sure I enjoyed the video as much as I thought. I mean, if he acted up, tho is just an episode. I watch Townsend for authenticity, you know?
@@PRDreams Hard to say. I'm guessing he has a genuine interest because there doesn't seem to be an ironic tone to his work. But he is promoting a TV show as well. He doesn't seem like the type of guy who is out to fool anybody.
Joe just seems like he belongs there. I love his humility, manners, kindness and humor. He's not just an old soul. He's the chosen one; the Elder Soul.
This is the crossover I never realized I needed. Joe Pera is adulthood's spiritual successor to Mister Rogers. The entertainment he provides is tonic for the soul. It's amazing to see the two of you working together. Thank you both for being who you are.
Joe Pera, subtly grinning: "That's how you know you're in a fancy house when they got the four-legged stools." Oh man, that was so subtle, so touching, I haven't laughed that hard in awhile.
As a fan of Joe and Townsends, and having found them from totally separate entertainment realms, I am both surprised and not surprised to see these two worlds cross and work so well together. Love this and would love to see more from this odd (yet not so odd) pair.
Joe Pera has honestly done way more for my mental health and learning how to handle emotions than my previous psychiatrists. Never even met the man but that Steven Hawking bit made me cry real tears for the first time ever.
From friends who have worked on the show (grips, cameras), nobody is quite sure how much of a character it is. A slight exaggeration is our best guess. He's like a lawful good Andy Kaufman.
I think the genius of the character is if you ever get a thought in your head that seems like an embarrassingly obvious or mundane observation it just comes across as charming.
In the evenings after the meal is eaten and cleaned up I can see sitting and carving designs into the edges, seat and legs. Little by little throughout winter.
Beauty in simplicity. This video nails that in every regard. Holy cow. Joe Pera x Townsends Homestead... I would say my brain can't comprehend, but it actually totally does comprehend, which is what is mind-blowing. Bravo. Get Joe back as much as he is able to, I can't wait to see how the homestead endures a 3rd winter, we all wish we had Brandon as a homie... as always, well done.
4:56 The sound of the drill turning through the wood is the audio equivalent of your best gal scratching your back after a night of prepping lemon bars for the church picnic tomorrow, or even a small handful of store brand chocolate chips right from the bag after dinner, even though you are eating healthy this summer.
Probably never clicked on a Townsend notification as fast as I did when I saw Joe Pera lol totally surprised but it fits so well I could listen to Joe for hours and will put on the show before bed sometimes its so soothing.
Sometimes I get really cynical about modern entertainment; then something like this comes along and completely renews my spirit. A big thank you to everyone that made this happen!
So unexpected and so great. This is such a perfect episode pacing and personnel-wise. The world needs more channels like this. Humble, grounded, and informative. Joe’s delight in this world for sure. More please!
Just an absolutely wonderful and heartwarming video. To be honest I had never heard of Joe Pera before but I'm glad I stopped by as he is terrific. Jon, that cabin is truly a thing of beauty. Thanks for sharing the experience with us.
It warms my heart to see these two come together in this way. The world needs more of this content to ease the tension, slow things down and get us back to the basics of enjoying life and those we like to spend it with.
Ohhh Joe Pera is my new fave! Although I’m just now seeing this in April 2022, What a sweetie & added perfect common sense questions. Ohh I’m gunna go look for him!
Wow. I never put any thought into who'd be a great guest to have on this channel, but then you went out and got Joe Pera. Absolutely on point. Love it.
@5:20 "I read a book about chairs this year..." I want to be like Joe Pera when I grow up. I'm 44 now. I wish I could like this video more than 1 thumb up.
The fact that nobody noticed who commented this amazes me lol. 🥺 I love Joe He taught me so much about lake superior and not to be sad when pumpkins die.
Just proves life is full of surprises. I have watched the Townsends for a good while now. My son started watching Joe's show a little while back and turned me on to it. Now I can get him to watch a Townsends video!
I guess fall is the wrong season for this, but perhaps next year you could take a try at using rustic joinery where you drive square pegs of seasoned wood into round holes of green wood. As the green wood pieces dry out, the hole shrinks around the seasoned peg and tightens up without the use of glue nor nails.
So glad I found this. Joe Pera has been a big part of my life and I've recently been finding interest in Homestead projects. Couldn't have asked for a better combination!
he fits so perfectly oh my god. Lots of things can be made better with a sprinkling of Joe Pera. Any fans of the old Kids in the Hall show? They once had a skit about how Jesus was a carpinter, but not a very good one. You never heard anything about his works becuase he made things like 2 legged chairs. They clearly pointed out that 3 is the minimum.
Ah, unless you need the chair to fall over. Which, if you need to say, stay awake to supervise charcoal burning, is ideal; such things did exist, at least one legged stools
I also love how joe just made a episode about chairs recently and which ones are best and was talking about fridge raiding in the middle of the night for some beer a couple of episodes later. Joe was defenetly dropping hints y'all we just didnt know!!!
There's a quote for woodworking. Measure twice cut once. But I absolutely love the type of construction that it took to build that stool. There wasn't a ruler, carpenters square or even a pencil anywhere near. And it was built perfect. Nice work.!
Seeing this really brightened up my day. I never expected to see Joe Pera here, but boy am I glad y’all got together. I would love to see you collaborate more in the future!

"i read a book about chairs this year" is the most Joe Pera sentence i think Joe Pera has ever uttered.
Some of the two best kinds of houses imo
I had to do a quick web search for the title to be sure he wasn't doing a bit. Nope, it's real. Extremely funny and very charming at the same time.
Watch Joe Pera talks you to sleep lol
@@ImUnadjusted yea if you enjoy a 5 minute loop for 10 hours
@@americannightmare2109 it would be better than this conversation
The crossover no one expected but everyone needed.
My Thoughts EXACTLY.
Was going to post something similar. This is like peanut butter and chocolate. No one ever thought to put them together but it just _works._
This is life changing
Nah
His show on Adult Swim is funny and good to watch.
Marvel: "Endgame is the most ambitious crossover in history."
Townsends: "Hold my spruce beer."
@Conner O'Malley
Truth!
Excellent!
Joe taught me how not to get kicked out of local baseball league and to enjoy lighthouses and waffles houses
Reminds me of an old Irish poem I often think of from the mid 1800's. I don't remember the poet, but it goes
Very Bright
Guiding Light
This is why
I am happy tonight.
He taught me all about the super market. Favorite episode. I love that he got to have his birthday ice cream, even after being grifted into buying a ham that threw his budget.
Don't forget the shopping trip too.
I actually saw a rotating dessert case and really took the time to admire it and every cake inside.
It probably felt really good for Joe Pera to revisit familiar things he remembers from 250 years ago.
I would definitely enjoy catching Joe on here more than once.
im so blown away he is here at all. joe is the best
Finish your episode bro it’s been like years
@@idontknowwhattoputheremmmm9184 leave him alone let the man work
Nobody knew they needed this in their life
A fox in space!!! I love your work!
I feel like Mr. Rogers was smiling down on these two titans of wholesomeness.
This comment is criminally underrated.
Definitely
I came here to say nearly the exact same.
The thought of that truly made my day.
Hahahahahaha…. Great comment. Forest Gump as well.
"I swear I've never built a rustic stool out of oak and hickory before." *Winks at camera* BEST PART lol so wholesome and silly. ❤️
I caught the wink too.
Indeed. Maybe he did, in a past life.
12:12 yes, he did. And being ominously specific there.
This part made me belly laugh big time
"Do you have a favorite chair?"
_"I like the three-legged stool."_
"Yeah. That makes sense."
_Protect them at all costs._
Hahahahahhaahh
I agree.

It takes someone who knows what they're doing 45 minutes to make a stool, but our boy Joe did it in 15:18. Way to go Joe!
"Feels pretty good on my butt." No better praise for a chair.
Joe just seems like he belongs there. I love his humility, manners, kindness and humor. He's not just an old soul. He's the chosen one; the Elder Soul.
The Eldest Soul
So the stories are true
Elden Ring: Joe Pera DLC
the Ancient One
Watching Joe Pera quietly make a stool with a patient craftsman to guide him is the sweetest thing I’ve seen in a long time.
Joe is such a great guest, asking questions related to the task to learn and to create conversation
spahgoot!
This is the crossover I never realized I needed. Joe Pera is adulthood's spiritual successor to Mister Rogers. The entertainment he provides is tonic for the soul. It's amazing to see the two of you working together. Thank you both for being who you are.
Mister Rogers is apple juice and Joe Pera is apple cider.
Except that Joe doesn’t seem to have anything important to say. Rogers taught generations how to be good people.
@@rong1924 I take it you haven't watched Joe Pera's show.
@@Wilderness-Will not a lot. Do you have a recommendation for one?
@@rong1924start with the animated “ Joe Pera talk syou back to sleep” and the season one of his show.
Joe Pera, subtly grinning: "That's how you know you're in a fancy house when they got the four-legged stools."
Oh man, that was so subtle, so touching, I haven't laughed that hard in awhile.
I love everything about this. Joe Pera is a treasure and him being on Townsends gave me such a mood lift I feel like I could make eight rustic stools.
Seconded! My parents and I had an absolutely lovely time watching this.
1 for yourself and 7 to give away to friends and family as gifts!
I just woke up and I'm currently making my first rustic stool of the day.
Same
I rate this comment and this video eight rustic stools out of eight.
As a fan of Joe and Townsends, and having found them from totally separate entertainment realms, I am both surprised and not surprised to see these two worlds cross and work so well together. Love this and would love to see more from this odd (yet not so odd) pair.
I hope he didn't see any dilapidated barns. He owes it to his choir students not to get sad about barns.
Hahaha great one!!!
Ashley wanna look at a barn sometime?
Everyone thinks this is a weird crossover, it really isn’t. The two most wholesome men on earth together, it’s meant to be.
Now all we need is Bob Ross and Mr. Rogers to show up.
I could not believe my eyes when I saw this video in my subscriptions. Joe Pera knows exactly which shows to go on to promote a new season.
Joe Pera has honestly done way more for my mental health and learning how to handle emotions than my previous psychiatrists. Never even met the man but that Steven Hawking bit made me cry real tears for the first time ever.
Yeah you’re not alone there
Two titans of simplicity and comfort join to make the world a little brighter
How did you get someone so hip, upbeat, and racy as Joe Pera for such a well grounded and wholesome channel?
I love how I can never tell if Joe is joking or not. He just "is".
From friends who have worked on the show (grips, cameras), nobody is quite sure how much of a character it is. A slight exaggeration is our best guess. He's like a lawful good Andy Kaufman.
It's great how his bit is just "Joe Pera Talks With You," so any time he talks with you, it's indistinguishable from the bit.
@aragorn767 Exactly!
The way I've always described him is his humor is so damn dry it's LITERALLY ascended to planes above our understanding
I think the genius of the character is if you ever get a thought in your head that seems like an embarrassingly obvious or mundane observation it just comes across as charming.
The comment about fancy houses having 4-legged stools is surprisingly insightful.
"That's how you know you're in a fancy house - when they got the four-legged stools."
Classic!
Legendary content
And just like that, I can feel my soul grow back.
Yes yes yes!
maybe this is the most accurate explanation of Why I Enjoy Joe Pera
Reminding me what patience and kindness look like. We need more role models like this!
What an absolute treasure. This episode was exactly what I needed at this time in my life.
Joe Pera is the best. So cool to see him here!
I rate this as: ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok
12:12 that wink! The scamp, hes a pro at building rustic stools out of oak an hickory!
In the evenings after the meal is eaten and cleaned up I can see sitting and carving designs into the edges, seat and legs. Little by little throughout winter.
That honestly sounds so therapeutic... might try that on a nice piece of cedar this winter.
@@01dirtydirk
Id like to see your pogress!
Joe is by far one of my favorite people. This was wonderful. Thank you all so much.

Reading this comment was like hearing a micro-episode of Lake Wobegon
Probably never clicked on a Townsend notification as fast as I did when I saw Joe Pera lol totally surprised but it fits so well I could listen to Joe for hours and will put on the show before bed sometimes its so soothing.
12:06 followed by the wink is why Joe Pera is a living comedy legend.
Haha I was waiting the whole video for that and it still exceeded expectations.
Something viscerally more magical about doing and then enjoying the efforts of the hard work.
I feel as though a cup of sleepy time tea was delivered to me through the screen, and I was able to enjoy it while watching these folks build a stool.
Joe taught me to love barns, especially round milking barns made by the Dutch.
"Sheds are just little barns."
You have to keep a sense of humour about these old barns.
Never heard of Joe Pera before this video but I don't think I'll be forgetting about him any time soon, what a chill guy
Omg best crossover! just two wholesome fellows being friends!
This is officially one of my favorite channels.
Videos like this with Joe needs to happen again. This was lovely.
“I swear I’ve never built a rustic stool out of oak and hickory before.”
…yes he has.
“Joe Pera shows you how to build a 3 legged stool.” This gets a 10/10 on the “Ok👌🏼” rating scale. Nice.
That's 10 ok's. A perfect score!
Yes
👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌
Can we get a whole series with Joe involved? This was beautiful.
Joe Pera + Townsends + a good beer at the end of a long day = I am seriously about to ugly cry.
Sometimes you just gotta let it out
Man, it be like that some times.
For me its the same. But add a joint ;)
I love how this ended up tying into Season 3 of Joe Pera.
This is one of the most bizarre things I was absolutely not expecting, incredible
"Do you have a favorite chair?"
"I read a book about chairs this year."
Mellowest things I've ever heard
Joe Pera on this channel makes so much sense. Instant like from me - I would love to hear how you got this collaboration to come to fruition.
Love Joe Pera! Thank you for sharing
Oh my word, you guys advocate slow living but Joe seems to take it to a whole other level, we could all learn a thing or two from him!
Watch Joe Pera Talks with You. You owe it to yourself.
This could be the greatest collaboration in the history of the planet Earth
There needs to be something better than “like” for this one. More Joe Pera please.
4:40 nice. Nice. Nice. Nice. Home run. Another home run. Nice.
Two worlds I love, that I never thought would come together.
Its kind of bizarre.. I didnt even know they knew each other. lol
not gunna lie teared up a bit cause of this lol its been a hard year. these guys were great together
Sometimes I get really cynical about modern entertainment; then something like this comes along and completely renews my spirit. A big thank you to everyone that made this happen!
Best townsends video ever made. Need more of these with Joe.
Seeing Joe Pera do cottagecore related media is such a warm apple night feeling.
Joe is the perfect fit for a Townsends episode and I'm so happy you guys got together!
"If you have a short wife you can make her a stool at this time period, it would solve a lot of problems " Joe perra is my idol
I'm about to start watching the video, and I can't remember being this excited for anything in my whole life
So unexpected and so great. This is such a perfect episode pacing and personnel-wise. The world needs more channels like this. Humble, grounded, and informative. Joe’s delight in this world for sure. More please!
Awesome show, Joe was a pleasure to watch build a stool. He's so right about the purpose of the stool, it's to keep you from sitting on the ground.
Never in a million years did I see this collaboration coming, this is incredible.
Just an absolutely wonderful and heartwarming video. To be honest I had never heard of Joe Pera before but I'm glad I stopped by as he is terrific. Jon, that cabin is truly a thing of beauty. Thanks for sharing the experience with us.

I guess fall is the wrong season for this, but perhaps next year you could take a try at using rustic joinery where you drive square pegs of seasoned wood into round holes of green wood. As the green wood pieces dry out, the hole shrinks around the seasoned peg and tightens up without the use of glue nor nails.
You seriously dont know how much this collaboration means to me. Thank you both
Joe was a wonderful guest. I enjoyed him immensely. Thanks Townsends.
So glad I found this. Joe Pera has been a big part of my life and I've recently been finding interest in Homestead projects. Couldn't have asked for a better combination!
he fits so perfectly oh my god. Lots of things can be made better with a sprinkling of Joe Pera. Any fans of the old Kids in the Hall show?

This is one of the single most understandable collabs I've seen on YT.
I never knew this was the crossover I always wanted. I almost leaped out of my chair when I saw Joe Pera's name on Townsends.
There's a quote for woodworking. Measure twice cut once.
But I absolutely love the type of construction that it took to build that stool.
There wasn't a ruler, carpenters square or even a pencil anywhere near.
And it was built perfect.
Nice work.!
I would seriously watch an hour long compilation of Brandon doing his wood work
....and another great video from you folks. Please have Joe on for more vids. His sense of humor and humble demeanor are very pleasant.
This is really wholesome, especially for a first guest. I'm excited to see who else makes their way to the Cabin in the future!
making stools with wholesome funnyman Joe Pera?? incredible!
Seeing this really brightened up my day. I never expected to see Joe Pera here, but boy am I glad y’all got together. I would love to see you collaborate more in the future!
Hey, I just listened to Joe whisper sweet-nothings in my ears for 10 hours!
