Southerner and Midwesterner start a “nice off”.
Canadian: “Hold my beer.”
😂😂😂😂 LOVE this comment! I’m mostly Canadian (both of my grandfathers came to the states when they were adults; one from Ontario & one from Nova Scotia), but I live in Michigan. I totally resonated with “hold my beer”! 😂😂
So true! Raised in Texas, and lived in Canada for 2 years. Going to a grocery store is like this video but with shopping carts and hearing lots of "Sorry" as people pass each other. I loved it!
@@michellewhitaker9571 Yes! I am from New England, and living in the American South made me realize that culturally, New Englanders are very like Canadians, especially the way we apologize all the time, (even if someone crashes into us!) and expect them to do the same. I've been mistaken for a Canadian a number of times ( likelymostly for the way I talk, I think.) It makes sense, though, because New England is so close to Canada.

Being from Oklahoma, I understood everything in this video. We are bilingual and we speak southern and midwestern. The Midwest says we are southern and the south says we are midwestern. Does that mean we have dual citizenship? 🧐🤔
I think so. I was only in Oklahoma for a week, but it did seem like they were a blend of southern and yankee. 😀 I was in Tulsa visiting relatives. I think Oklahomans do have dual citizenship 😆
I have a friend whose dad was from Michigan and her mom was from Arkansas; she was raised in Oklahoma visiting both sets of relatives. Then she ended up living in Michigan. It’s a bicultural existence 😂
The real test is do you say Coke or Pop more naturally?
Bilingual...BWAHAHAHAHAAAA! 🤣🤣
We feel the same way in WV. Some say we are northern and other say we are Southern. Even the Mason Dixon borders WV.
Okay so this is definitely what our country needs! Talking about what similarities we have rather than arguing about our differences. ❣️❣️😊👍👍
👏👏👏I agree 💯%
Yeppers!!
I pulled up to a stop sign in a grocery parking lot this morning and a pedestrian and I wasted I don’t know how much time as we each kept telling the other to proceed. We both ended up laughing hysterically. I finally realized that because I was older (almost 71), that young man would never walk in front of my car. Life in the South!
This is 100% true but I was really expecting it to end with Kim in the passenger seat either getting out and walking or telling one of them to just go.
I was too!
I thought she would drive off and leave them
I thought the same.
Nope, because they're still both sitting at the crosswalk.
Same
As someone who was born and raised in Michigan's Upper Peninsula (Yooper) and has lived in the Raleigh NC area for the past several years, I have to say that this is one of the best representations of cultural differences and similarities that I have seen yet.
Greeting from Mqt!!
Hello from Boone, NC!! ⛰
This is crazy funny and spot-on!! Love you guys.
Same! Midwest to TN/GA border
Say ya' to da UP, eh?
Yes! As a Midwesterner, I often identify with Southern stereotypes. We are really similar. I think it has more to do with not being from either of the coasts.
Pretty sure North Carolina is the coast...
@@jadarv yeah east coast
Can we please just have a whole video of all the bloopers from when you make these ridiculous Midwesterner videos? Those are the best part! 😂
This is hilarious. I grew up in Virginia and spent hours after every birthday and Christmas slaving over thank you notes to my relatives. I would have rough drafts of these thank you notes and once my mom approved them (they had to be “newsy”), I would painstakingly copy them in my best cursive. Thanks for mentioning the thank you notes!! Great start to my day…I’ll be rewatching this a few times 😀
I agree. I would also add that I find it crazy when people don’t consider us Virginians southern. I mean really??
Oh I hated doing those!
I am glad I wasn't the only one who had to suffer through that.
Right?
That’s why they picked George Washington to lead the continental army; because he was a southerner. ( from Virginia ) Since most the revolution had happened in the north, It was a effort to unite the colonies.
Legit!! 🤣🤣
As a northeasterner, I was thoroughly amused by this because I knew I could never get away with 90% of what I just watched.
I am also in the Northeast and was thinking the same thing. The stop sign thing would never work because everyone is too impatient.
Hahaha I hate it when people skip their turn at the stop sign to let me go because it always ends up taking longer than if they just went, all that waving and misunderstanding. I'm from New England, by the way. In case you couldn't tell that this video does not apply to me 🙈😂
New Yorkers here. My blood would be boiling at that stop sign and I would either drive around and flip them the bird, or maybe try to push their cars out of the way if I was having a bad day. Ok maybe not that, but I would think it.
@@sotek2345 It's like that in MIdwest cities, I"m the chillest person there is, but my friends are always so shocked when we get on the highway to the city or up in the Chicago area and I'm using my horn like I had it (I never use it in my regular small town that I moved to). I'm also a super spiteful driver if it comes down to it. If someone is going to be rude and honk at me the absolute second the light turns green and I don't go, I become "Student Driver" as in, I go the exact speed limit and stop at yellow lights. I wait a moment after it turns green to make sure the people on the other side see that theirs turned red. I don't want to get T-bone because Joe Speeder can't wait 2 seconds....he'll wait a lot longer if there's a collision
Yes except upstate New York. Drivers in Ithaca would be very persistent about letting people turn in front.of them. And even the kids said ma'am and sir and hold the door for you.
As the daughter of midwesterners, who was born and raised in the South, I can say this is 100% true! I love my midwestern family and my southern upbringing. 🥰
That’s so funny, because my bestie is just the opposite! Her parents are from Texas, but she was born and raised in Wisconsin. 🤣
TEXAN HERE! lol ❤ yeah…….. I was actually BORN in Colorado………my Dad’s a native Texan………and my Mom’s a native Californian…………… IDK WHERE MY ALLEGIANCE LIES?!?!?!?!?!
I love your neighbor & how you both are able to both laugh at & embody our regional stereotypes! What fun you must have working together!
She’s their producer…not really their neighbour.
@@alijane6675 understood, but still great sense of humor!
@@alijane6675 she REALLY doesn't live there?
@@alijane6675 She doesn't live next door?!
@@slydog75 No. She is their producer, and I would guess a writer to boot. But she isn’t their neighbour. It’s a recurring character.
OMG!!! I am a southern FL girl and started working for a company based in MN. We had a corporate event in St Luis and this rap was literally every time I was in the buffet. After you. No after you.
Epic! I can't imagine all the shooting and planning that went into this video. Thanks for making us laugh. The pouring of the iced tea while walking down the street🤣
from texas: y'all are painfully adorable. ever tried the 20 minute "good bye"? just standing at the door talking while the kids ask "why haven't we left yet?"
It's usually an hour goodbye around here 😆
@@theholdernessfamily if there's alcohol, it's usually 2hrs. At least for us extroverts. 😁
@@theholdernessfamily in Minnesota the goodbyes last longer than an hour it's called the long goodbye. Out here the goodbyes could last at least two hours longer.
@@kellymullen8265
Extra-long goodbyes are a
Wisconsin tradition, too. 🐄
🌲🌳🌲🌳🌲🌳🌲🌳🌲🌳
🙋♀️ Hello, neighbor❣ 👋
@@WhenImBackInChicago hello neighbor. Long goodbyes we're always a pain in the butt when we were little . Now when anyone I know makes a long goodbye I just walk out the door and head to the car and play songs on RUclips. When I say goodbye I make it short and sweet
I have absolutely no idea why youtube recommended this to me, but it was hilarious as a Canadian to watch
I’m Canadian from Alberta and have been following them for a few years. They are so funny!
So you two enjoyed it, eh?
@@joshuaburba1048 😆🙌🏻
@@DioneN Oh you liked that, eh? I appreciate it, eh.
@@joshuaburba1048 I mean not really, it was kinda meh, but it was still funny if that makes sense. I am sorry if it doesn't.
Anything with your Midwestern Neighbor is an instant LIKE. This this was over the top. Loved it.
One of your best videos yet! I love all the videos with the Midwestern neighbor and am so glad you’ve been doing them more often lately. The sweet sass your neighbor provides to your videos adds an extra dimension to your videos.
My mom is from Minnesota and my dad from North Carolina...this video spoke to me in ways I didn't even know existed! Thank you once again for blessing my life.
As a Midwesterner married to a Southern gal, I feel this... way too hard.
I was born a Hoosier and I married a good ol'boy from Alabama. So yeah. Though we did discover that Catholics and Southern Baptists are a dead heat with guilt.
I have been having the worst morning. This is just what I needed you guys have no idea how much your video turn my day around
We hope your day gets better! ♥
@@theholdernessfamily WAIT, SO IS HER ACCENT REAL??
I know right! The HOLDERNESS FAMILY IS THE BEST! THEY MAKE MY DAY SO MUCH BETTER! I LOVE THEM!!!!
Me too. This definitely made the day brighter.

COKE!! I grew up in Texas but then I moved to Ohio. The first time I was at a restaurant I ordered a coke, but I was so busy talking with friends I didn’t realize the waitress didn’t ask what kind of coke . . . . Hence, she returned with an actual coke and when I tasted it I said politely, “What is this? I wanted a Dr Pepper. 😝” That was in 1998. I have fully converted to pop. 😍
Moved to S. FL in 1983. I have fully converted to soda much to my Ohio family's dismay. It took quite a few years of "Soda Pop" to get there.
As someone who has lived in both Minnesota and now currently North Carolina, this is SO accurate. Also, as someone who was raised in the NorthEast, boiled peanuts and dessert "salad" has never made sense to me.
Penn falling in the background while trying to jump is own leg 😂 We need a whole video of bloopers from this one!!❤️
OMG!! I had to go back and watch for it!!😂😂Thanks for pointing that out!
Love this! As a military brat the vocab part totally explained the confusion of my childhood! Imagine the first time I moved from the north from to a small town in the south and every time someone insulted me I thanked them!
I'm a So Cal native and after spending so much time in both places, I have to say that this video is dead on awesome. As a non-native observer of both places I have to agree. Great job on this
As a midwesterner, with a brother who lives in the south, gotta say this is gosh darn accurate!
I never realized that I had ever said a version of “Yeah, no” as in “Yeah, not so much” until the Mid Western lady brought it up. 😅
I'm a West Coast girl and I really don't dig it, you're both speaking English but I don't understand it. Love the sweet tea, hold the casseroles please, rather have a bomb taco and some gnarly poke at the beach. You dudes seem real cool and you're hella nice to each other, I am stoked to take it slow but by the time you let the other pass I could be catchin' some waves and trippin' for real.
Bro want you to know where ever you are from, and how we communicate you Holderness fam know how to put it down and ya for sure are for real and legit in the end it's all 'bout the fun ya know what yadadamean?
oh my! not as good as yours...lol Have to thank you for all the laughs. Found you when covid started and you've helped me through a death of my husband and unemployment I appreciate you guys ever so much.
thanks
Mikie Giusti
From someone born and raised in Minnesota, who now lives in Texas: you guys (that's ya'll for you southerners) nailed it!
Wisconsin here. I agree with all the Midwest statements. She did a great job keeping up with Penn too!! Nice job everyone!
In Canada, we "apologize" for being in your way. So Sorry.
Having grown up in Minnesota and spending 6 years in Tennessee I can confirm this is 100 percent true. Tell your folks I says hi, and yall come back now
I’ve lived in the Midwest for many years and in the south for many years and there is no question midwesterners are more polite…😊👍
Y'all have made some BRILLIANT videos over the years but this is a masterpiece!
OMG, "Plus we got Catholic guilt" NAILED IT!
LOVE it!!! Thank y'all for the laughs and smiles!! 🥰🤗
Glad we made you laugh
Great show of unity among the people of this country. We need that so badly now.
The Midwest vs south videos are the absolute best - Ann Marie is hilarious! Please do more of these!!!!
OMG, just when I think that you guys can't do any better, you have a hold my Sweet Tea moment 🤣😂😅.
Love this one 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Aww, thanks 🥰
As a Southerner who married a Midwestern boy, yeah, we have a lot in common, but enough differences to keep it interesting.
I'd love to know what the residents think when they see you guys filming these things, walking oddly down the middle of the street in a 2 person, forward marching, rap battle. 😂
The neighbor is so funny! She makes a great addition to the channel!!!!! God bless guys
She is there manager
I can confirm that midwesterners say "Yeah, no" for no. I hear it all the time and do it myself. And my grandma has the best jello salad recipe, although she just calls it jello, not jello salad. I relate to everything in here about midwesterners.
The "yeah" part indicates that you understand what they said, and the "no" part is your answer to it.
but what indicates the "no" in "no yeah"?
@@piiinkDeluxe When I hear this one (far less often than the other), it's usually when somebody has asked for a favor and is apologetic about it. The "no" part lets the other person know that whatever they're asking for won't be a problem, and the "yeah" part tells them you're willing to do it.
@@kynn23 ah that makes sense! thank you 😊
It's very different in Massachusetts! 😆 You both killed it (with kindness?)!
Love this one! Do more of these!
Being a North Carolinian transplanted to New York with familial ties to the Midwest.... y'all totally killed it! I was crying laughing because it's all true. Love you guys so much! Oh yeah, I have explain "Bless your heart" fairly often.
I'm from Indiana and my grandma is from Arkansas. I feel acknowledged and attacked 😂😂
Ar-kansas
@@dorathedestroyer770 A pirates favorite state!
I hope y'all had fun eating all that great-looking food, after finishing the shoot, if you could figure out who got to have the first helping!
I love this so much!! ❤ Thank you for all you do! Y'all are the best part of RUclips! 🙂
From Brooklyn. We’d go around both of you honking the whole time and give you dirty looks for taking too long 😂
this was awesome, great work!
I have lost track of how many times I’ve watched this video, it’s so funny and the song has been stuck in my head for days now. I even paused the video to read the thank you note and I can’t get over her dancing its so joyful and creative! This is just awesome, thank you for sharing your life and art with us. 💜
I am from Michigan and this made me chuckle. Mainly, I had no idea some of the Midwest foods/behaviors in the video were exclusive to the Midwest.
None of them are, though... (Especially 'yeah no' and 'no yeah'; that is universally popular in English)
@@EagleScoutmano Not universally, our no is a no, and our yes is a yes.
This was genuinely one of your best videos. So funny!
Kim's just sitting in the passenger seat eating chips and politely waiting for this to end. 😂
I love your neighbor!! She adds so much to these videos!!
Thank goodness for this family to put a smile on our faces! This was awesome and so true!
Penn!! You NEVER put lemon in Sweet Tea!!!😝.
LOVED the rap-off! You guys never fail to entertain and leave us with some good feels.😊
Being a Floridian with Texas family roots, marrying an Ohioan and living here now, totally can relate. Nice vs nice! Vacation to Boston was eye opening!!
This is fantastic! Genius writing & amazing acting!! One of the best!!! I love it!
Absolutely love it!! You never disappoint.
Thanks for watching
I shared with my son in the service & he loved it too.
As a Midwesterner whose mom was southern, I identify with the Coke thing so much! Oh, and the rest of the video was also spot on and hilarious.
In New York when people would find out I was from Missouri they would think I was a southerner. And I'd be like "No, midwestern." They literally couldn't distinguish between the two.
Missouri is both, lol
@@TiredMomma No way, Missouri is totally in the middle.
OH MY GOODNESS, this is so true and at the same time so hysterical. I loved seeing your Midwestern Neighbor" who has made me laugh on many occasions. Bless your hearts, this was GREAT!
Thank you for spreading so much joy into the world! Your videos are top notch! 🌻💕🤘🏼
Ah crap, I wish I could take credit for the beginning of this video. I offered the idea that no one knows who goes next at a 4-way stop sign 🤣
So I’m not alone? I’ve been wondering if I need a refresher course because maybe I’ve forgotten something but I swear it’s who arrived first or clockwise. Apparently I’m one of the only ones who think that because stop signs are awkward AF
@@Mama_Bear524 They sure are! 😄 Sometimes you don't see the person, sometimes the other person thinks they got there before you...but here's the rule. If you and another person arrive at the same time, if they're on your left, you should go first. But that never happens 🤣
I'm old enough now that I just laugh.
The Holderness family is the family we all want as friends and secretly wish we could be.
YES!!!!! Two of my favorite things from this channel combined!!
Was smiling the whole time! You nailed it!
I love how the Midwest neighbour is just joining in all shenanigans lol. Also I think Canadians are nicer
I think you're suggesting a Southern, Midwestern, Canadian Battle Showdown...
Go and drive in Canada. That will cure you of that thought.
That being said most people in midwest drive pretty civil. A little less in south but it is not bad until you get to Florida. Maybe that is why some don't consider Florida as part of "the south"? The driving?
@@edwardrhoads7283 oh Florida is its own ecosystem. It's full of Northern Snowbirds, immigrants, and transplants. Not much that is Southern about it, besides its weather.
@@edwardrhoads7283 In Montreal, if someone isn’t moving, you screech your tires when you stop, & then honk. 😹😹😹
This is absolutely golden! You both absolutely rocked (er...rapped) it!!
This is so spot on! I was born and raised in Michigan but my dad is from West Virginia and we have this conversation all the time when we are down there 🤣🤣
Y'all make me happy everytime I watch your videos. Just what I needed this morning. Thank you
Coming as we have from the midwest, we are experiencing all of this real-time and I love it. You guys are awesome. You should really do a concert. A mega-potluck at a local park would be amazing. Could be a great fundraiser. When a million people showed up, it would raise you to national prominence.
i agree. but aren't they kind of prominent by now already?
@@piiinkDeluxe Yeah, I just want them to do a concert so I can see them in person.
@@hemaccabe4292 honestly, I'd fly over from Germany to attend :D
I love at the end that Pen was sitting in the street with a low country boil ready to go…
This is totally undervalued, this should have 1 million + views!!! Love it!
That's why I watched it twice 😆
Having lived with Southerners for a while, I've learned that the plural of "y'all" is actually "all y'all."
I loved the Coke thing because I was trying to explain that to my non-Southern friends once and we were all equally confused about it 😂
the real question is: who had to make so many salads? 😄
This was one of my favorite songs!! It's so funny and catchy!
Right when I thought I'd seen it all..u guys are hilarious!..omg!...being from Northern Michigan and traveling down south and out west Rock hunting, I get made fun of constantly. So watching this just makes me feel better..u guys are awesome..hey,..can I get that pretzel salad recipe?..bless ur heart ❤️
One of the only good things about being from Michigan (as a person born & raised here) is when someone asks where you’re from & you hold up your hand & point! 😂😂
The other is snow on Christmas morning & driving around looking at all the houses decorated with lights.
I’ve never felt like I truly belong here. I hate cold weather & I get the winter blues. It’s so depressing when you need sunlight, but you don’t get many hours of it in December/January & you don’t want to put on 3 layers of clothes, boots, or a huge coat, hat, gloves, etc. just to get 5 minutes of partial sunlight & fresh air.
I truly feel like I should’ve been born in the south!
@@kristenm2962 I'd have to agree, that my wife and I love to drive around on Xmas eve and see all the old mansions done up with lights and stuff..really neat!..but I have to say, if your born and raised in Michigan, who puts on 3 layers to go outside?..ur blood just naturally gets thicker as fall turns into winter ya know?..it was -35 below one day and I took the garbage out..only a 50ft walk..and I got plenty of fresh air..and I was fine..coulda' cooked a steak that day it was so sunny..Lil chilly but hey..that's January for ya.
Having lived in the Chicago and Oklahoma, and having lots of family in Texas, I think the Midwest wins the deep down nice off. They're both great though, it's degrees of greatness.
Loved this so much!!! Thanks y'all!! 😊
Love it! Midwestern neighbor videos are my favorite, and this one is the best.
Haha! This is great guys. It's so much better than politics. Have a great day!
You guys are my favorite team on amazing race
Wat the heck
U smell like actual p00
Why u so stinky
Is that cheese on your nose?
Is it just me or is there an odor xoming from you
LOL - loving these! Thank you!
😄😃😆🤣😂That was so good...BOTH of you. You outdid yourselves AGAIN! Keep 'em coming because I need to laugh!!🤩
Loved this one. I was appalled when I discovered that my family all over the southeast call Pepsi Coke. I am a Pepsi drinker, so it's just wrong.
Grew up in Chicago, with summers in Michigan, and moved to the TN/GA border, so this is close to home on both fronts. Oh and I LOVE a rap battle, even more when it's funny and parody. So well done thank you for this.
That was the best - and completely true!! Lol Thanks for the video! ❤️
This was hysterical !!! I loved it , can’t stop laughing !!!😆
I finally paused the video on the thank you note and read it. Priceless. 😂😂😂
Me too!!!!!!!!!
I'm here for more of this!! 🤣😂🤣Love you guys with your neighbor!!!
I’m a native New Yorker who moved to a very Midwestern part of Florida. All this niceness is creeping me out.
This was hilarious, as expected!!!! Just want to note that out here in Cali, it's a pleasant surprise when you see someone even slow down for a stop sign. 🤨
The famous "California Stop" 😆
@@stephaniehardy3401 Yep. People are just DYING to get somewhere!!!
This is by far my favorite!!!!
Frickin Hilarious!!!!!
This is so good. Do more!
Loved this so much! I have lived in Texas and Wisconsin and there was so much to laugh about in here. I love her accent! She sounds like my cousins.
Needed that laugh today. Thanks for all you guys do.
