  • Why are there so few older gay vloggers on CZcams? If you know, share with me in the comments.
    While taking my walk around the Tahquitz Creek Golf neighborhood of Palm Springs, CA today, I talk about my favorite gay/LGBTQ+ CZcams channels and vloggers. Let me know if there are others I should be watching.

    I love those mid century houses. I'm amazed that some of the yards are just stones and pebbles yet still beautiful. Anyway, I don't really vlog a lot but I do post videos of me singing. Not too many people want to hear an old gay man singing but it's my way of expressing myself. Happy Birthday to your channel.

      @theretiredlifewithsteve  Před 2 měsíci

      Thanks S, I know what you mean, there’s not a real large audience for older people doing anything lol. So you just have to do what you love doing and share it with however many people want to watch. For you it’s singing and for me it’s walking lol! 😎👍

I can't get out much, so this is the way I get to see some of the world. Thank you for the lovely videos. You and Jim take care.

    Hi Steve & Jim, Love, love, love these beautiful, relaxing desert 🏜 walks and talks. I realize this may seem silly, but when you zoomed in on the street sign "Birdie Way", there was a small birdie sitting on the sign. How can I share with you a screenshot? I do photography 📸 as a hobby and am always photographing various birds, so I was quick to catch this. Lol... We love both your channels, but this new "vlog style" is especially interesting and watchable. Keep them coming our older, kind-hearted, gay friend/s. Matthew (59) & Austin (60) -oxO( ❤ )Oxo- Ps. Twenty-five years together and legally married.

My phone screen is so small. It was a fun surprise when I saw it after I uploaded it to CZcams! 😄 And how awesome about your gay friends too! 😄👍

    When you mentioned Bobolink while walking by the street sign with that name, it piqued my curiosity as my memory was that it had something to do with quail -- but when I looked it up, I found that I was mistaken. The Bobolink is actually a native, North American Black Bird that is comparatively rare and is rarely seen West of the Continental Divide.

    • @theretiredlifewithsteve
      @theretiredlifewithsteve  Před 2 měsíci +1

      Hi Jennifer! 😄👍 I would say that about 50% of the homes in Palm Springs are mid-century modern. We also have a lot of Spanish homes and then we have newer homes and also just the typical California ranch homes. But 50% is still a lot more than almost any other city in the country. 😎👍

    I discovered and subscribed to your graveyard channel during covid. You were the first youtuber I ever watched. I love watching ypur videos and listening to you talk. I seen scott on tape with you back then and subscribed to his channel also. I never knew that you were gay until you mentioned it in one of the videos with your daughter. It doesn 't matter to me what gender you prefer to be with that is your bussiness. I love ya anyway! When I started watching your videos I thought you were only in your 50's and was shocked when you said you are 70. You are aging very well young man. 😊 Well see you on your next video, until then take care. ✌❤

    Here is a CZcams Channel that may be of interest: "No 2 Gays About It" . For Gay Men over 50, by Gay Men over 50. It has two friends, one single and one in a monogamous, 30 year relationship. They do weekly vlogs that discuss a specific topic for gay men over 50. Steve, thank you for your vlogs. I have enjoyed your casual chat style walks.

    • @theretiredlifewithsteve

You have provided a variety of interesst over the years and I really appreciate that. I love and enjoy all of the variety. Do either you or Jim golf? I'm sure you have addressed this many times over the years, but I have forgotten, LOL. Thank you for your commitment to the videos it has brought me many hours of entertainment and fun.

    Hey Steve, Thanks for all the channel recommendations! I've heard of most of them, but have not watched Gary and Phil yet.
    Have you thought about growing a beard again? It may be a different look/feel since gray hair is different, and it would compliment your shaved head. The experiment might also make for a good CZcams video😜

    • @theretiredlifewithsteve
      @theretiredlifewithsteve  Před 2 měsíci

      Hi Corey, I agree that it would make an interesting CZcams video. And I might have to do it just for that lol! 😆 but I just really hate the look of beards on any man. I’ve never like that look. For a practical standpoint it would be fantastic though. I hate to shave and I only shave once or twice a week now. I would love not to have to shave again. And it would also hide my saggy neck skin that flaps in the breeze lol. Thanks for the suggestion, but I don’t have to think of about that one for a while! 🙄

    There are 5 gay channels that I subscribe to.
    1) Steve in Palm Springs / yours 😁
    2) No 2 gays about it. About being gay and over 50. Both channels from Palm Springs.
    3) Patrick Marano
    About being gay and over 40. Totally hilarious.
    4) Tyler and Todd in Canada, which you stated you watch as well. Great couple. Love their dogs. Watching them for about 4 yrs now.
    5) The Pineapples out of San Diego. 3 gay guys in a throuple. relationship.

    I enjoyed this episode because of the gay channels mentioned. I still consider myself new to CZcams since I began watching YT videos last year around this time of year. The “gay” channels I have stumbled upon is yours and Dearly Departed. I also watch Hollywood Graveyard and that creator may be gay. I’ll be searching out those channels. On my instagram profile I describe myself as a digital content creator in organization; meaning I’m studying the landscape of creators looking for my content niche to launch my channel.

I hope it’s a personal Vlog lol! 😄 Scott Michaels is gay and I love his channel and almost included it here, but it’s really not a personal Vlog as you know, so I decided not to include it. I thought that Arthur dark might be gay too, but someone told me recently that he was married and has a daughter, so I don’t think he is.

It does kinda crack me up, all that green grass out in the middle of the desert!! I prefer a more native look, and there is actually a lot more color and vegetation in the desert than many people realize.

    LOVE Tyler and Todd, I've also been following them since just before they took off on their RV adventure, then the pandemic hit and put an end to that. They loved Palm Springs when they went through there. They talk about setting themselves up for "retirement" quite a bit, and I think, in a way, they've been doing that since college days. Smart guys, funny as hell and they're quite inspiring for DIY projects. If you aren't 100% committed to men, there's the VanWives, who are also not living in their van anymore. Their channel is a similar to T & T, with their own spin. They have, just at T & T do, a podcast.

    • @theretiredlifewithsteve
      @theretiredlifewithsteve  Před 2 měsíci

      Hi Derek, I agree. Tyler and Todd have such great building skills. They are so impressive. I didn’t start watching their channel until after their started building the off grid house house. I will have to go back and see if I can find their RV episode when they came to Palm Springs. Thanks for letting me know about it. Someone else also just mentioned the Vanwives. I just watched a few episodes and thought I was watching the female version of Tyler and Todd lol. Both of their off grad homes are in Nova Scotia. I wonder if they are neighbors? Thanks for recommending them too. 😎👍

    Hi Steve, I liked your walk. I like that neighborhood by I heard a rumor that golf course may shut down and the Prescott preserve folks may try to buy it as parkland. Regarding gay channels although younger I highly recommend “Tommy and Peter” a sweet married couple in Czech Republic (though late 30s). PJ and Thomas are fun, a young (30s) married couple in Tennessee who adopted 3 kids. I’d be interested in your opinion on these two. Lastly there is a straight older woman in Indio called “Palm Springs Cindy” who has been vlogging for years. She is in her 70s and a former Palm Springs resident and retired school teacher who is a real kick. Take care and enjoy!

      Hi Foster, wow I hadn’t heard that news about the golf course. Hopefully it stays nice. Thanks for mentioning Tommy and Peter. I don’t know how I forgot to include them. I actually do like them a lot and I do watch the channel and I subscribe. I’ve tried PJ and Thomas but for some reason I just don’t connect with her channel. Maybe I should give them another try. And years ago I discovered Palm Springs send it, but doesn’t she just have a fashion and make up show for women? I will have to check her channel loud again. Thanks for mentioning them! 😎👍

Yeah as we get to be in our 60's and older not as many people who understand or care for the online and videoing or vlogging world - wasn't part of growing up and they feel can't teach an old dog new tricks - but ya can lol

    Hi Steve. Thank goodness for You ! You are always authentic and enjoyable. Your videos are one of my "Treats". I want to introduce you to a CZcams channel called Out Loud. The two guys are in a relationship with a large age gap. They vlog their lives with the channel. They are cute. The older individual is in his 60s or 70s. Another enjoyable channel is Tips For Travelers. The channel has 433K Subscribers. The host mostly seems to go on cruises, but also does train and other adventures. He is out of Britain and is openly gay. The channel is oriented towards travel tips and less about his relationship. He is very detail oriented and excellent with his filming, narration and production. He has a modern, progressive approach about being gay. "Kerry and Pierre" is another favorite. Out of Miami. Two very handsome men and their gay life. They focus on their relationship and fitness in the LGBTQ community. My last treat is Walter Lee Hampton II, out of Atlanta. He gives a great perspective of gay life there. I would describe him as middle-age gay. His channel is a Vlog about his life, working out, and all of the nuances of his life. He's authentic and has a unique style.
    Keep doing what you do. You make a difference !

I will definitely check out the other ones though! 😄👍

    Do you ever feel aches and pains after these great, long walks? My cane and I have in the past few months worked up to slow-paced nightly or early morning walks (both cooler times of the day in Florida) up to 4 laps around the grounds of the building where I live which equals about a mile. Just recently I had to cut it back a rest a few days a week instead of walking 7 days a week because my right ankle on the inside of the foot right where my ankle and foot join was very sore and puffy. I took a week off and started back a few days ago at 2 laps a night and it seems to be a little better. I chalk it up to age, but I just wondered how you are holding up. I know...I am so good at "sticking my nose into things"! Thanks always!

      Hi William, that’s an excellent question and no one has ever asked that before. It ties in with something else I wanted to mention on one of my walks so I will answer that question in a future video. 😄 as for your walks, that is awesome. I wonder what could be causing the pain and swelling? Maybe the next time you go to your doctor he will be able to figure it out. Jim used to put an ice pack on his ankle when it would get painful and swell when he played basketball and it really worked. He had the type that straps around your ankle with Velcro. I tried it when I had a pan a while back and it worked incredibly well. Maybe you could try something like that too. Good luck continuing with the walks! 😄👍

    Pardon me if this has been asked but did you ever have the chance to see or meet Huell Howser? I wonder what cemetery he was buried at. Years ago, maybe 2008/10(?), I saw him at a restaurant in Palm Springs. I believe it was LG’s Steakhouse. He was with 2 friends and I so wanted to go over and shake his hand and thank him for his videos. However, I also didn’t want to disturb his dinner time and no one else approached his table, so I just let it be that I would admire him at a distance. 😁

    Steve, OutLoud is a YT channel with Jon & Brian of Providence Rhode Island. Theirs is an age gap relationship of 27 years.
    They will be taking over the Monkey Tree Inn in Palm Springs in June to celebrate John turning 30. They have their subscribers in all of the other rooms.
    They were here last year to film a series in LA when they visited Palm Springs.
    I would LOVE to know if you recognize them from the series you talked about early in this video that got so much trolling online. Jon and Brian are on the record as having disliked the experience themselves. I was never able to find it online.
    Jon does frequent Gay health related videos as he is a licensed medical assistant. They VLOG family and baseball sports league videos. (I skip those last...) That said it is an interesting mix of younger and older gay generations mixing and the friends in both age groups.
    FYI the OLDGAYS have apparently privated most of their long form videos. Unfortunately, they become a little too well-known when one of them had a brick thrown through a front window. They had done a collab with some very popular young CZcamsrs here for Coachella Weekend 1 either last year or two years ago at one of their homes in Cathedral City. It was a week later the brick was thrown through the window. It was the long form videos that gave too much personal information on where they could be found. It's a really sad situation to have happened here in the Palm Springs area.
    However, it is a reminder that we all need to remain vigilant...Even here.
    Thanks for the video!

      You are right. It is a very good rememinder to be vigilant, even here. Hateful people are everywhere. :-( Even though lots of viewers ask me to share my birthdate, last names, headstones of family members I visit, etc., I try never to share information that will make it easy for scammers and hackers and haters, oh my! :-O Thanks!

Vietnam Veterans as controversial as that war was seem to have been forgotten now days. Vietnam Vets are getting older day by day and one of these days just like those in previous wars they will all be gone. When you are at war and your life is in danger it does not matter if the Solder next to you is Straight or Gay. You are there to do your job and take care of yourself and your buddies next to you. We need to continue that thought in our lives every day even when we are not at war. The best question I can think of is why in this World and where we are so educated War continues time and time again. You would think this world would wake up and stop all these horrible things.
