The way you guys look at each other, it’s like you’re still just as in love with one another as the day first met. Definitely relationship goals. You have such a loving stares and looks just during a normal conversation.
I had the same thought yesterday...the way they look at each other ❤....I mean, like I m married for almost 10 years now...I don't think we ever look at each other like this 😂😂😂😂
It's also a great couple format. Just sitting together talking about stuff. Good for strengthening the connection.
@@khushboosingh-gh1jxmaybe you do it when you aren’t realizing it? It might not be in sit down conversation but maybe when you both are using each others love language. I’m just trying to help your partner out. lol
also, I believe second language relationships (for a lack of a better term) have a different, more puppy love like chemistry. It’s super interesting to me.
You can curate how that person sees you. You won’t have past experiences to lean upon because that person is culturally different than the people you grew up around.
They can never fully understand your past experiences and vice versa. Which is probably not great for longevity however not being able to compare them 1 to 1 your exes probably makes the health of the relationship a lot stronger.
If it takes two years to hear every story your same native language partner has, it’ll probably take quadruple the time in a second language relationship before you can finish the story for them.
I had the same thoughts
Agreed
in germany we don`t say "Deutsche Bahn". We say "Katastrophe"
/laughs in SBB
@@MariaCarabin SBB has it's shit in order. BIG TIME👍
Just try English rail and you'll want DB back
You don’t like traveling without each other. Aww, that’s sweet!
I used to live in Bayern before Covid and the Deutsche Bahn was very reliable. What happened?
Valerie is such a delight. She dispels the "serious no nonesense" German stereotype .
I never laughed so hard as I did with my German friends when I lived there. The humor is hilarious.
My German bf got me hooked on the two of you. So similar even as an American 😍
Is she "Tschörman" or English?
I'm confused about it. She spells very good german.
And she's lovely.
Ich find die so süß zusammen
Wie sie lacht!
Das ist echt so ein Wohlfühl-Couple, was auch Wohlfühl-Atmosphäre ausstrahlt.
When she talks in English, it's with a German-Anglo accent and when you talk in German it's with an Anglo-German accent. It's cute.
It’s so obvious how much you two love each other. You both beam and glow in each other’ presence. Keep it up!
Hoch sollt ihr leben…………drei mal hoch !
So nett. So nice. Danke, Liam und Valerie
She is naturally so beautiful, funny, and smart🤍
Hope you both have a marriage blessed with love, happiness, and prosperity!
Got addicted watching the shorts, so glad to see this 😂 been learning german just under a year now.. Liam, you sir are my idol. 😂
My son had a two-hour delay from Munich to Bonn, and he got 50% of his fare back. That was nice!
He should get 100% of it back, this shitty service is not worth a single cent I tell you!
@@Dominik-ui1zn Many Germans are spoiled ... Have you tried British Rail?
@@drdocy As many of our football fans are finding out, the varying operators in the UK are country miles ahead of DB on punctuality and reliability.
@@Dominik-ui1zn50% for 2 hours means you should try and get a 4 hours delay! 😂
Once upon a time I was living in a hostel in Melbourne city, I'm Australian myself so I'd help travellers to find work. I met a big rough construction boss who asked me "If you've got any Germans or Dutch, send them my way for construction work." I said to him "Sure. I've also got a team of Spanish and an Argentinian looking for work too." He turned to me, looked straight into my soul and said "I said Germans and Dutch mate! I'm not f*cking interested in lazy f*ckers, I need workers!"
Germans are so good, I got the young fellers to fix my bike gears and do odd maintenance jobs around the hostel. They're literally the nicest people in the world
Please do not let him belittle Hispanic workers, they carry the trade here in the USA 🤷♂️
@@noah3254 those sleepy people do f all
@@noah3254absolutely👏
One should never generalize, nor paint everyone with the same brush.
I took university courses with German exchange students.
They were there to party and have fun, not to study and work on team projects.
They were a nightmare to deal with.
In every country there are the good, the bad, and the suckers!
Thank you.🙏🤗
I have just started learning German bacause of you and you have been my motivation for it
As a Thai person who has never been to Europe, after I watched your first short video from the reel, it seems something got me hooked on your videos haha. It may be interesting to note that many Germans come to visit Thailand. I must say they are generally well-behaved and very polite, though sometimes they seem a bit aggressive, probably because of their accent. They really love the south of Thailand because I have seen a huge German community there. Anyway, it’s great to explore German culture through your videos. Love you both 🙏 Thailand
Greetings from Italy. Rao Rak Prateet Thai
If you want to know why most germans go to Thailand, watch Rammstein's "P*ssy".
@@ricordiaerei7776 khob khun krub 🙏🏻
Thanks for loving Thailand
Some Videos are quite ok and almost funny, but mostly very old stereotypes are spread here to somehow squeeze out a joke. It's not a portrait of „German culture“ but rather a depiction of very rural provincial German habits.
@@drdocy I dunno. I have met quite a few germans like that, stereotypes are stereotypes for a reason. I do have quite a lot of German friends who are very much not like that though, but they are Viking Fighting Reenactors, and we are a bit weird.
I think your podcast is great. There are so many things I can relate to being English with a German wife. It makes me smile listening to your conversations which my wife and I have also had ourselves !
Love the episodes with cams, getting even better
You two are so in love. Don’t lose that. Sometimes feelings fade, but stick it out. You two are wonderful together!!
I love your videos, Liam . I'm a new subscriber . You have over a million! How long have you been doing them? I love your subtle humour , showing the differences in the English and Germans' ways . You nail it every time ! Your lady is lovely. She is great in the hiking videos .
oh dear! my husband is british but we live in belgium. yet im learning so many things about british/continental particularities from you two! thanks! aaaand more about the wedding pls!!!
You guys are so frickin cute together. Relationship goals
Clever, creative, and funny. I’m glad I found the main channel, and the delightful pod chats.
Is there a chance of adding episode numbers? I don't always listen to them on release but like to listen in order and then it's a bit hard to tell which one is which by the title alone
Done :)
@@liamcarps Thanks a lot ^^
I'm from London living in Ostfriesland for 8 years. My little sister keeps sending me your clips mugging me off for my questionable German and my change of habits. Last year I turned 30 and asked that we could visit a museum and go for a walk together to celebrate. We ended up in the pub instead of course 🙈
Yay!!! My new fave podcast!!! I love y'all, thank you for the visual option as well!!!
Hi Liam!
Thanks u made me put more effort in learing german again.
Great content❤
Greetings from The Netherlands!
See you next Wednesday in the half finals!!
Great podcast guys.
I'm really loving the podcast!! It's incredibly relatable, I'm also German and my husband is English. We met in England however, around 9 years ago, and he moved to Germany 3 years ago. We had our civil wedding also in August, but in 2022 so post Brexit. Probably wasn't very different to before though, all the paperwork, translations, official stamps sound annoyingly similar, I feel the pain you had to go through back then :D We had our church wedding exactly 1 year later and had so many english guests come over. It was so much fun to see all these foreign people mingling and having some English and some German traditions as part of the wedding. So excited for you to finally get your big party, I'm sure it'll be such a great day, enjoy every minute of it!!! x
I burst out laughing at the impression of "Sehr geehrte Fahrgäste...." - that's EXACTLY what it sounds like. I felt like I was standing at Frankfurt Hauptbahnhof.
😂
Guten Morgen aus Südkorea
Grüße an Südkorea von Norddeutschland 😊
Danke für das Video 😍 ich liebe eure Videos und eure podcasts werden immer besser 🥰
I love Valerie. She's the direct and honest female friend I never had❤
😢
Hey Liam and Valerie, thanks for your podcast.
I live in France and work in ralways and some french people complain xhen it's late that we should privatise more "like in Germany, their trains are always on time". From what I'm understanding, they never used the DB..
One of my German friends called Bavaria "the Texas of Germany".
He didn't lie tho...
Bavaria also is Germanys bible belt.
As I'm South East England born and my partner is North German, we'd love also know what Liam finds the most difficult parts about being with a German woman. It was interesting that Valerie's challenges she spoke about here are the same my German partner experiences of me. Loving the video podcast. I'd like a video talking about any challenges with communication as a German English couple. For example, bringing up challenging topics- is it harder for an English person to confront issues/easier for a German, are there challenges with how these things are communicated-for example does one person experience more sensitivity when being confronted than the other... and how do you manage these differences. ❤
Normal Liam is very polite. Nice to see this chat re his life in Deutschland.
When l was in Germany l started off speaking Deutsch in shops and invariably they reply in Englisch. Meine Mutter war Deutsch aber ich b i'lingual"..🏴😄🇩🇪
Thanks for posting; that was quite interesting. You’re a lovely couple and it’s nice to learn you have dogs.
Liam . You can be proud when somebody announce your name. You are cool
Valerie is so elegant.
Thank you guys for your videos.
Thank you, that was very informative. Entertaining and sweet.
"We say" 😂🇩🇪
Train journey?
There was a train coming in Germany?....😮😂
"It's such a weird way of doing it."
"We love it though!"
"Yes."
Hahahaha
So glad you guys have a podcast! I love learning German an the videos make me laugh so much
"Thank you Liam Carpenter for choosing Deutsche Bahn today"😂
His wife looks so cool. I can tell she speaks her mind just fine, lol. So, she had no problem telling her husband, "Let's get some drinks sometime." 😉 Sorry, but Liam looks like the shy one. 😊 I like how she's in more videos now. ❤
Liam the toy boy 😂
Love the story how you got to know each other
In Germany we say Liam is a Gewohnheitstier when it comes to food. ☺️🍚 apparently this is rice …
You both are so wonderful! I truly enjoy your creative humor. Alas with chagrin, I observe that the word "like" has infected the languages across the pond! The American contagion has even seeped into the Mother Tongue. I am an American who anhors this constant: "like this, like that, like, like, like. " We have managed to butcher one of the most noble languages in the world. Domage.
These things come and go, languages are alive 😊
So interesting to hear the wedding traditions of both Germany and England compared to the US. In the US there is no distinction between civil and religious wedding. If you are married in a church, that’s it. If you are married in the courthouse, that’s it. Either way You are married in the eyes of the state. We had open bars at both of my daughters’ weddings. Common but not everyone does it. It’s expensive. Most venues won’t go past 11:00 pm for the reception but there is no hard and fast rule with that. Congrats to you both
Very good you added the Video again!
That was great. Thanks so much! 🥰🥰🥰
She has a proper British accent well done
Love you two !
I love it! First I understood that the marriage in UK start at midnight lol
pro tip: Do not park at the bahnhoff parking while you catch a hotel for the weekend and think youre going to drive away. it was hundreds of euro to leave :( still worth it
I took several trains on my way to visit my boyfriend in his Kurort 250km from here 😂 everything went fine. I got all the connections and even was on time to take the bus into Niemandsland as every Kurort is 🤣
I think they just hop on the german Bahn bashing trend
good content!
I watched the latest Laura Kampf episode and she flew her dog Smudo to the US with a dog friendly Airline, where the dogs could stay in the same cabin as the dog owners
Offering Hausschuhe to guests is a German thing that my British friends were very confused by, as a video idea
Лиам, почему не рассказываешь о налоге на дождь и телевизор?
In Germany, we don't say: "AI took my job!!"
We say: "Dann macht eure Arbeit halt selber!"
One time in Hamburg I was waiting for the train and 3 mins before the train came they changed the platform to the one that was 4 mins away. And then they changed it 4 times again
so sweet, I am German , and can relate so well , have grown up in South Africa and must say the arrogance is definitely there so great how we can laugh about it
What kind of dogs do you have? Can we see them in a future podcast?
Great podcast!
Can you talk more about the difference between what is real German food and culture vs Bavarian food culture as that’s what most of the rest of the world sees?
Yes!
i love this. chillig!
Lovely humans are you!❤
I’m a software engineer who has the responsibility, although I’m a Brit with only school girl French, of localising our software into German and other languages. It started ok, when I’d send out spreadsheets to associates to translate but later it fell to me alone to do it. God bless google translate, but I’m sure I’m producing chino style manuals, if you know what I mean ;)
So cute 😢
I studied six years of German in school. All I can remember is: "Wo ist die Bibliothek?" I'm proud I remember that much
Liam "The Huge Head" Carpenter 🤠
German Has 2 sides
1.Angry Speech mode
2.This Guy
Yeah it's a sad message he's spreading, indulging in stereotypes
Here in Malta, most weddings happen in church. The civil wedding papers stil need to be filled in or eles eits not legally binding. Civil only weddings are allowed too.
Senk yu vor träwelling wiss Deutsche Bahn. Gud Bei!

Wedding breakfast denotes the first meal together.
Alles Gute 🎉🎇🎆🏀🎂🎁
Is it me, or does Valerie's English sound a lot like Liam's? Like that consonant dropping thing.
Liam is adorable. He looks like my favorite cousin did at Liam's age.
I am falling for this guy😭😭😭😭😭😭
I have a crush on him now...❤❤
Im an 18yr girl
A few days ago my mom and bro had to take a train from Cologne to Hannover and the departure was 16:14.. it got delayed, delayed, delayed and AT 21:00 THEY FINALLY ANNOUNCED THE TRAIN IS CANCELLED. This is a fling joke (the trains, not what I just said)
After ten years in Germany you trust the train. Oh, dear!
😅
You didn't see that coming.
Schöner Podcast, Eine Frage: gibt es mal eine Podcast Folge in Deutsch ???
We don’t say, i am sorry I am late, we say: I came with Deutsche Bahn.
in germany we dont say : och ne Bahn schon wieder zu spät!
in germany we say : och die Bahn kommt mal pünktlich?!
I can’t unsee father Dougal McGuire in him..
I'm from the United States, Philadelphia to be exact. They constantly steal my packages, SMFH! I hate it.
We need a video on words that mean entire sentences in German... like Backpfeifengesicht 😂
Hi, if possible please do some german language lessons. I'm learning german at the moment on duolingo and going to Linz, Austria for the first time in around 2 weeks. I have a friend from the UK who moved there around 6 years ago, after the brexit vote and in time to be able to stay there without the 90 day rule... Still good anyways to view your channel and see funny comparisons between Germany and Austria and between Germany and the UK. Thanks
Come to Aachen bro!
Wow you guys definitely like each other don’t you?😅
Ah yes, that sentence during a journey usually means bad news 🤣
Wir haben uns verfahren ;-D
Wait - people pay for drinks on a wedding in the UK? Wow, never heard of that.
In the Netherlands the couple pays for the drinks. An end time however is common, ussually at 12 or 1 o'clock. Ussually they will serve a coffee and a sandwich or fries or some other food after the party is done. I think that long enough also - since ussually you start around noon.
What is the problem with Deutsche Bahn? Is it not always reliable?
replace "not always" with "never"
Deutsche Bahn was never really well maintained at one point, because the government wanted to save tax money on other things. It’s to the point now, where the deutsche Bahn (which was known for being punctual on the second like a true German) became a joke. The tracks and trains are in bad shape and lots of tracks need to be fixed or routes need to be changed because of that. In short the government did a bad decision, and no other government after it, decided it was worth it to revamp the current Deutsche Bahn. And now it stays exactly the way Liam described. I’ve used Deutsche Bahn for half a year on a daily basis for hour long train rides. I can confirm what Liam said is 100% accurate
Thank you for the explanation. That is very sad to hear, because Germany has always had a reputation for investing money in public transport. I live in London and Munich is my favourite city in Germany. For environmental reasons I would like to travel to from London to Munich by train, but hearing this puts me off using Deutsche Bahn.
@@jasonsubhan8479 dont misunderstand, if you use it not too often, its not that bad. And in cities public transport is mint. On the other hand in the countryside it’s really bad. I recommend going by train regardless, but dont forget to pack at least an extra hour too! Most of the time its not needed, but if its, you’re thankful for it!
@@akatsukisama1035 Thank you for your reassurance. It will not stop me from visiting Germany. I used Deutsche Bahn for a return trip between Berlin and Leipzig and it was wonderful. After travelling from London to Brussels on the Eurostar the onward journey to Munich involves a couple of changes and the transfer time is sometimes very short (e.g. 8 mins) so if trains are late or cancelled it's a problem. The total journey from London to Munich takes approximately 10 hours, so you can't always book trains with longer transfer times on both the outbound and return journeys. But I will investigate further.
Wie wäre es mit einem Wohnmobil, da können die doggies mit in den Honeymoon?! Ihr seid sehr nett zusammen anzuschauen.
Hi, it would be interesting to hear about the cultural differences between the north and the south of Germany. Are the northerners really as reserved and standoffish as certain describe them?
Funny - the other are asking the same questions I would have asked.
Man könnte auch so Leute aus bestimmten Städten oder Regionen machen würde glaube ich auch sehr lustig kommen
Guten Morgen Grüße aus dem gym (6 Uhr)
You are so cute together ❤
can you ask Valerie what the English accent sounds like???? Dave Worcester UK
