After watching a couple of videos from this channel, I gotta say that I'm glad I subscribed.

I'm so old that I can recall that going down town to see the window displays was a special occasion to look forward to.
Fun fact: The electric toy train under the family Christmas tree started as a 'one off' for a department store window display. When rich people started waving money around wanting one just like it, some smart guy(s) eventually saw the obvious and the Electric Toy Train Industry was born..

That window display was the Parade for me... LOL!
Tom really deserves waaaaay more subscribers

Sorry nobody's f****** entitled to anything you have to earn your subscribers
@@XxxXxx-fm3wo chill out lmao
Thank you for lifting my spirits. You are a New York treasure🙏🏻
Tom, you are charming, intelligent and hilarious. I appreciate your knowledge of history and architecture. You are amazing!
Fucking love your videos bro. Made my lockdown feel slightly more bearable - your walks make me feel like I'm on holiday.
dont swear its not big
Welcome to the crew. Tom's content is epic😅‼

Glad you mentioned author Chuck Dick. He gave us such influential images of Christmas as we generally celebrate the holidays. We enjoy your videos. Cheers from the other coast in Vancouver, BC, Canada.
I have to watch your videos like twice because I spend the whole time laughing at your shenanigans. Thank you.😂😂

Why this channel doesn’t have at least 100K subscribers is 🤯. Great video Tom and thank you!
Because he doesn’t play the “trying to be cute” and the slickness other tour videos do….unfortunately some people are more into the bells and whistles as opposed to the content of the videos sometimes…as much as I enjoy Sarah Funks videos, Tom is more down to earth, which is why I chose him as a tour guide as opposed to Sarah when I visited NY
Another video gem, Tom! You’re so right about Rock center at Xmas being the 7th circle of hell. Thousands of tourist zombies trudging about, eyes glued to their phones. Endless annoying selfie stops. Bah humbug!
You told the PHD Keyboard Warriors to “go read a damn book”. 😂🤣😅. This video was completely awesome. I love Christmas, I love New York and I love history so by default I REALLY love this video. Thanks so much for all your efforts and your comedy. Thank Eric also!

Subbed when you had 35k a week ago. Now your over 40k, congratulations brother 🎉🎊🎉🎊
Same here. It’s da analytics I suppose

HEY Im an X-Pat, from New York City, that is,.....Was so happy to get outta there...this was cool...kinda good to see the old stomps...love your humor.
Thanks for sharing Tom. Keep grinding away! 👍🏻🤗😉
Sinterklaaaaaaaaaaaaaaasssssss. He still comes to the Netherlands every year, and on december 5th we have giftsnight. And in between Sinterklaas arriving and the 5th of December children still put their shoe in front of the fireplace or the radiator (what we did) put a carrot in your shoe (for the horse of Sinterklaas) and sing Sinterklaas-songs. I love the way children can believe in Sinterklaas so well and the magic around him. Adorable. We this year will do the gifts in the afternoon coming Saturday. Once the children don't believe in Sinterklaas anymore a lot of families do that. But still plenty who keep giftsnight at december 5th. 😊 you've explained it very well, I kinda already knew how Santa Claus was "born". And its what you told
Never stop making videos- everything about your videos are entertaining, hilarious, painfully new-yorker, and historically educating. AND RELEVANT !
Tom! Thank you! I find myself watching and re-watching your vids. The walks are awesome. New York is... sorry I'm laughing my ass off now over "Chuck Dick"
At the very first glance, The way he entered into the video, was nice & funny
😂 NO Ball's on the Christmas Tree 🤣🌲all in my Appartment 3.OG!!!!!!!!!!! Greetings
Masterfully taught and tied together, with the priceless comedy bits that your longer-time viewers have come to know as “yours*, Tom. Thank you for sharing your gifts. Wishing you well in 2022!
So funny, and Eric is a good sidekick. Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄
When I was kid living in Germany on the army base, we put my dad’s army boot in front of the door and Kris Kringle put candy in the boot.
Your silly miming jestures are my favorite part of your videos. And the cool facts. Thanks.
Happy Holidays Tom and family. Thank you for the awesome video. Love you guys

Washington Irving was buried at Old Saint Patrick's Cathedral in Little Italy. His tombstone is still there in the church cemetery.
I thought I saw his burial plot w/headstone up in Sleepy Hollow Cemetery in Tarrytown.
P.S. "Believe It or Not" - at one time Macy's would release One or More of the Balloons ! And then reward those who returned them ! (It was a Different Time) ... And right up to the Mid-1950's - Once the Parade was over; Macy's would allow a "designated amount" of Kids, into Their 'Toy Land', who were given Shopping Carts for a FREE "Shopping Spree" ! The catch was, They were only alotted a certain amount of time. But frankly, I don't recall how many minutes.
YOU SEEM LIKE A GREAT GUY TOM
Their is nothing like Christmas in New York
That second guy walking through after the rant was pure gold
Good work and being consistent is key.

Finally, another Tom video. WONDERFUL. Love you Tom.
Also- you should do a snippet on Pete’s tavern. I’m super excited to go there. I’m a civil war buff. Kind of a cool history there. Very cool.
This is the best video yet. OMG. New York. Christmas. Tom NYC. What else can one need????!
🎅 Christmaš decoration🎄 ruclips.net/video/_jspEjam7So/видео.html Merry Christmaś
I love your vlogs- want to book a tour the next time that I am in NYC.

clickbait or not, I'm grateful for this channel
🎅 Christmaš decoration🎄 ruclips.net/video/_jspEjam7So/видео.html Merry Christmaś
Thank you so much. I enjoy all you do for us. Happy Holidays to you and yours.⛄👍🙏😊
You’re going to make a lot of money doing this bro keep it up
Tom, you are a helluva good NYC tour guide. The best. It puts your channel way above other walking channels like action kid and walk, ride, fly. So much more interesting and informative. I'd like to find some video's of your stand up. If available anywhere please inform me? Thanks brother.
Action Kid doesn’t give you even a 1/10 of the information Tom gives you…Action Kid doesn’t really give you humor…no offense to Action Kid, but his videos are kind of boring
You are funny…you should be in SNL being a travel host 😀😀😀😀😀🤗🤗🤗
THANKS TOM / MERRY CHRISTMAS
By the way, Irvington, NY, (Westchester County) 2as named after Washington Irving, whose house is also located there (it's a quaint cottage, that overlooks the Hudson)
Sunnyside
Another fantastic video packed full of value. Thanks brother
Thanks, Tom, for this Christmas "gift". Much enjoyed 😉
BRAVO, Tomas, BRAVO! Ya hit another home-runner, Papito! Love ya like a play-cousin! ^ _ ^

22:55 - someone got grumpy 🎅🏻
New to your chanell and terrific. Very interesting on how New York has influenced Christmas tradition. Why did you not mention the movie Miracle on 34th Street, when mentioning Macy's? That is likely one of the iconic Christmas movies. Blessings from a Brooklyn guy who has relocated to the South. Merry Christmas.
I enjoyed this alot! I'm a new subscriber here & am enjoying your content! You're also funny & entertaining!
People definalty pooped with the Sears Roebuck magazine back in the day. It Was the source of toilet paper for most as the paper was very thin.
Hey Tom. If you haven't watched the documentary, 'Dreaming of a Jewish Christmas', you should. It's excellent.
I love this one... Spittin facts! #sinterclaus 😂
eggnog! yaaaas coquitooo
your b-roll is next level haha
I’m really enjoying your content, you’re great!
