Well, here it is. Many requested it, and I finally made it. Be sure to check out MatrixMachine's channel and Jacob's podcast as well. 

I'm traveling a bit over the next week and a half, so I will not be releasing a video next Friday. 

In other news, I now have a Twitch channel. Feel free to join me over there if you dare: https://www.twitch.tv/iammrbeat

Thank you for your continued support. I hope you all are enjoying the warm weather across the Northern Hemisphere (most of you are up there, I think). 

Cheers!

Connecticut and Massachusetts Compared

Mr. Beat compares and contrasts two fairly similar New England states that were settled by Europeans earlier than most other states.

I remember visiting an old-styled village in Massachusetts back in 2018. Seeing old banks, potteries, stores, churches, etc. I found it really neat.

Born in MA, briefly lived in CT. Neither are as great as my other past residences, CA and TX, but both are superior to my current one - NJ lmao

Naterade

Love these comparisons. How many more state comparison

Naterade

Do you have left? Also Connecticut style lobster rolls and Boston Cream Pie rule!

Matt Beat

Not many state comparisons left, but I do still have plenty of cities and THE REST OF THE WORLD. :)

Hah, an office building I used to work in appears in one of these stock footage clips, as does a friend of mine's old apartment building.

I've spent significant time living in 4 states, so that "where are you from" question is always a little hard to answer, but they are: AZ, TX, IL, and CT, and specifically, in Connecticut, Norwalk (which got a shout-out in the video as the seventh most populous city in the state or something).
