First time watching David,really enjoyed it. He sounds like a 1960's,early 70's narrator. The guy has a cool voice which makes the show more fun,cheers.
Thanks, James! It was great fun to do!
He must have some voice over experience ... if not, he missed his calling 😅
@@lukensage Good guess, Chip! I retired to South Florida after a couple of decades delivering radio news in Chicago.
Yes! His voice is soooo familiar.
You have a very classy Florida Keys review. Love the quote "If its right to do its wrong to wait"
Love his voice ! Sounds like the good life !
Born in Miami Beach I traveled and fished in the keys . I know most of these bars but I tell you sir your video has shown me more of the bar I never mapped. and places to visit thx you sir . south FL for life. without your videos I would of never found them. 😎
Hi David, I lived in Marathon for almost 11 years, Came back to Illinois for my Grandkids. Man, how I miss the Keys! Anyway, I just wanted to say, Islamorada was named by the Spaniards When they arrived all the broken shells on the shore were Purple, it must've been a beautiful sight from the ships! Good fun watching your videos! Thanks!
Thanks for connecting, Andres. You made my day. I was on the radio in Chicago for many years before moving to South Florida. My son still lives there. Anita and I are planning our next trip down the Keys now!
@@thenewsdudeabides Thanks again for the videos, the memories come flooding back! Have fun and we're looking forward to watching more of your trips. ❤
Great job Dave!! Frequent Florida Keys and KW visitor myself. Have been to most of the bars you reviewed. Tough job but someone has to do it...haha. You have that Walter Cronkite like voice, what a gift. Hope to see more.
Agreed, he has an excellent voice
I was stationed in KW at NAS BOCA CHICA...66-70....Visited a lot of dives that are probly gone now... The White Inn was one of our favs...I lived on Stock Island in a trailer which is not there now..... right across from a Shrimp processing plant....went snorkeling in Boca Chica Bay... didn't know bout conchs or I woulda got a few.....been back coupla times fly into Lauderdale rent a convert drive down Overseas hwy...lotta fun....
Extremely helpful! You sound like a radio announcer and your wife is adorable. We are headed there tomorrow so we will now be doing a 90 mile bar crawl LOL. Thank you!
I retired after 40 yrs. doing radio news in Chicago. Good ear!
Thanks Dave -- have very fond memories of both living in & visiting the Keys and you brought it back❤
another enjoyable bar hopping cruise. way back when, I used to spend winters in Key West and the lower "FlaKeys" between 1975 to 1990. before like many places has changed too much, in too many ways! I used to frequent bars on the "quiet" other end of Simonton street, like the old Sands beach club, long gone, and the Full Moon Saloon, and the old Bottle Cap bar. I still remember the Green Parrot with three shots of Tequila for one buck! I remember one classic place, name unknown a little up the road from the Half Shell, it looked to be an old run down building looking vacant for decades collapsing fence overgrown yard with a neon sign saying closed, and a locked door it advertised it was closed during the hours which it was open. and the musicians would not be appearing when they were scheduled. if you could find your way in you would find a very nice well done interior. and outdoor patio even their menu would go out the way to discourage patrons in classic Key West style of the times.
Great story! Thanks. Anita and I are heading down again in May and will be hitting places we've never been. Wish we could have known the lost ones you knew. We will stay for the first time on Stock Island. It's already home to great bars (Hogfish Grill) and new hotels.
Ahh Key West. So many good places to eat and drink. I miss the Keys.
Glad that you have finally mentioned No Name Pub. It has the best pizza and silver dollar French fries.
Enjoy being down in the keys bottom glass house then I came back up Monroe county Island and beaches beautiful 😍
Heading home after 2 weeks in the Keys. I loved old town!
Hi David , we’re from the Uk and have visited the keys a fare few times in the past I was reminiscing watching your vid and have visited many of the bars that you did ! such great memories. Your book took me by surprise as my wife is also writing a murder mystery book based in the keys so I forwarded it to her and she has now purchased it .
Great vid really enjoyed it , hopefully make it back this year for my £60th ..think it’s a must .🙏👍
Hey, thanks for your kind words! Glad you liked the video and hope you do make the return trip. Anita and I are hitting the road back down the Keys for a week in May and I suspect it will result in another CZcams project. 😁 Congrats to your wife for her book effort and I hope she enjoys mine!
This is the best tour of Key West on You Tube!
the old timer sitting on the rope at schooner warf has been there for years. Good to see hes still kicking.lol
Thanks for the cool observation!
His name is Gary.
Great Video. Love the keys. Smokin Tunas, Key West needs to be on this list.
@@joepalo6600 Hey thanks! And I like Smokin' Tuna, too. But the news is Smokin' Tuna is leaving its building because the rent went up too high. Keeping the outdoor space out back for now. Have to see how it works out. Meantime there's a new CZcams video called 40 More Florida Keys Bars in 6 Days. Fun to make!
@@thenewsdudeabides Ya I have heard. Havent been there in Awhile. I will check out the new video for sure
Love Anita too! ❤
Me too! Anita says thanks.
Fabulous video, a really enjoyable watch. Great charm of presenter, lovely atmospheric bars, stunning scenery, cheers from Scotland.
Thanks! You made my day!
I'm having fun just watching your video. Thanks Dave, keep up the good work!!!!!!!!!!!!
It was all about fun!
I love Florida
Great video thanks for the bar tour. Looking forward to checking these out on our trip next month.
Have a blast!
Also… Marker 88 in Islamorada is AWESOME!!! You have to go!
Thanks! We'll check it out!
Looks like great fun Dave and Anita!!
Great trip! 👍
Picked up a copy of your book. Look forward to enjoying some rum and reading over the long weekend 📖
Thanks! I hope you find it entertaining!
Great job Dave... you do a really good job. thank you
And thank you right back again.
I would love to move back to Florida. Lived close to Anna Maria Island for 10 yrs.
Thank you fun video !!!!
David, your videos inspired me to do a 'Pub Crawl' every time I head to the Keys!
Hey thanks! You made my day. I think we'll do our next one in a few months! 😁
@thenewsdudeabides wish I could join you! That would be fun
Ty
Sorry I missed your comment. Thanks!
@@thenewsdudeabidesha...we r down here now for 2 weeks
Down for 2 weeks! We're jealous! 😁
Thanks for doing the recon! What a great trip!
Sure was fun! Planning to make another trip soon!
Love it! We are heading down next week. We love dive bars so I am taking notes!
David i have been watching your vlogs for years, you deserve more views For the informative content you provide.
Hey thanks, Stephen. You made my day!
I being that mile bring cool
Go true that brigc at nite yo scary
Cool yooo
Love the narration. Thanks Dave!
Wow, I haven't been to Sloppy Joes since 1997. Boy time sure flies. My first trip to the keys was in 1974. Me and my best friend at the time drove my 1964 Chevy Belair all the way there. Stopped in Marathon and Grassy Key and found a nude beach. We got our butts burned so bad we couldn't hardly sleep. LOL. Those were the days when the Keys were the KEYS! Not the same anymore. Oh well, at least I got to see it back then. There were even live reefs when we went there. Now all the coral is dead just like all the people that go there thanks to our post Covid apocalyptic dream world
Thanks for sharing your great story. The Keys are changing, for sure. But still fun to be had!
Great video. So well done. I knew I recognized your voice from Chicago radio.
David..Love this..Thank you!! I added this to your other Keys drinking vid on my Overseas Highway playlist. :) We would love to travel with you and your lovely wife, you have great humor and I always laugh.
Sounds like an older Mike Rowe! Great voice
Thanks! I'll take that. I like Mike Rowe, too! 😁
It all looks so good 👍
Dave, both of your keys videos were very helpful. Thanks for doing them. I also read Lock Stock and Peril. I just finished it. I really liked it. Well done. Please write another
Hey thanks, GC. You made my day! 😁
The keys have such a rich history. There has to be another book or more. :)
Your videos are much better than some of the other You-Tube videos of travelling US 1 in the Keys.
Some of the others are quite laughable.
@@robkeysnj Thanks! Nice of you to say! 😁
Great video!
Cheers you two! Happy new year 🥳
Wow you really delivered. Thank you so much, delightful content. Cheers!
✌ 💘 🍺
Subbed... Forgot to mention 💙❤
Thank you for sharing.
Big help in planning our Keys trip.. PS.. You should do a voice over for the Monorail announcement in Disney World... lol
Ha! I'd love that!
Great fun.
This was fun. I've always wanted to visit.
Hope you can some day!
Excellent video! So informative and your narration is professional grade.
You made my day! Thanks!
Great video! It’s going to get us off our ass and on the road!
Have a blast!
Castaway is one of the best bar in the Keys
I'm with you!
Another great video!
Thanks! You made my day!
Love ur work
Thanks! You made my day!
Love these videos of bars. We would be going southern from WPB. We never stayed in the keys and thus missed the sunsets trying to get home at a reasonable hour. I would love to see a list of resorts in the keys that are not going to cost $400 a night. Thanks
We often supplement our hotel costs with credit card points. Keeps some of these prices manageable. But the resort prices all up and down are a moving target, so they all get kicked up depending on demand and time of year.
You have a great voice, we're you a former newscaster?
Good guess! I did radio news for more than two decades in Chicago before moving to South Florida.
I thought the same.
you sound like Peter Graves...😀
Funny! I'll take that as a compliment!
Beautiful! We use eat at whale Harbor buffet in Islamorada. You two old farts have got the life!
Wish I lived there my whole life ! Wish my parents left me with a trust fund so I could live there !! lol 😂
Me, too!
Thats not the original Sloppy Joes where Hemingway hung out. The current location of Captain Tony's is the original from 1933-1937. In 1938 it was moved to the current Sloppy Joe's location on Duval. Jimmy Buffet got his start at Captain Tony's. Nice radio voice BTW.
Thanks! I'd heard that when the bar moved, Hemingway moved with it. 😁🍺
Great job recording and editing this video.
Hey, thanks!
Enjoyed the video 🥂🍹🍺🍷🍾
Thanks! Suitable emojis!
We just watched this video and the other one from 8 years ago. It was great! We are celebrating our 25th anniversary in November and are planning a trip to the Florida Keys. Are you going back anytime soon?
@@AndyMartin-u1z Thanks! Glad you liked 'em! Anita and I just got back and I'm editing the next one now. We visited 40 bars this time so it'll be split into 2 parts. Fun!
I looked up Fred the tree on Google maps and it was there 😂😂😂
You're a damn good narrator! Nice video!
Hey thanks! You made my day!
😊😊😊nice
Dave, this is the best info travel video i have ever seen. Love your voice! Did you used to be a radio dj or tv host? Awesome voice!!
Thanks! You made my day! Yes, I did drive-time radio news in Chicago for a couple decades before moving to South Florida.
@@thenewsdudeabides Awesome! Thanks Dave.
My wife and I will be retiring soon.
We live in London Ontario Canada.
Thank you for inspiring us to visit South Florida Keys. 🐬🐠🌴
Where have you tried the cocktail that you liked the most? 😎🥃🙌
I'm a beer guy and Anita drinks pinot grigio. But she did say the piña colada at The Marker Hotel bar is the best she ever had.
This guy sounds a lot like the great Paul Harvey. Don’t cha think?
Ha! I met him once when I worked on Chicago radio. Thanks for the comparison!
What an incredible voice! I could listen to you narrate a tour of bathrooms. But please stick to the keys that's my favorite place in the US.
Ha! You made my day!
saludos usted tiene voz de locutor de los anos 50
Jajaja! Gracias. 😁
the voice
Ahhh....Pepe's
American alan whicker😊
Thanks! 😁
We stumble upon the island fish company. We felt it to be outstanding. Have you featured them?
Yes. Island Fish Company was included in my previous video called 28 Florida Keys Bars in 6 Days. Fun!
@@thenewsdudeabides sorry I am a new subscriber
@@ksessa1010 Glad you are hanging with us now!
Love your voice!!!!!
Thanks. You made my day!
@@thenewsdudeabides You made my day too! I’ll be binge watching your videos now as I work. Your voice makes me think of a peaceful Sunday, cooking and cleaning with the windows open and a fresh breeze coming in! Thank you for sharing it with us!
So out of place Christmas in a tropical atmosphere ...
I did that in one dude..
You are my new role model. 👍
@@thenewsdudeabides It was in my navy days during the 70s...Young and motivated. Now, not so much. Cheers Dave!
@@americanazheck I get it. That was the 70s. Now I'm in my 70s and my wife Anita and me are heading down again in May. Cheers back atcha!
It's changed so much.. We've changed as well...
What the hell is Ila Bella? What language is that????
Isla Bella is Spanish for beautiful island. Just like the key called Islamorada is Spanish for purple island.
@@thenewsdudeabides I fully understand what Isla Bella means in Spanish. Last week I traveled from Key West up to and back from Key Largo enjoying many of the stops along the way depicted in your video. However I was appalled at the horrible pronunciations of Spanish points of interest by not only tourists but locals as well. Nevertheless, I enjoyed your video. Thanks
@@hankhernandez5502 I get what you're saying. I pronounce it like they do locally. If I were in Mexico I would have said izz-la. 😁
It is illegal in Florida to feed or give water to manatees! Conviction comes with a hefty fine and jail time. I suggest you take this video down before someone reports you to the Florida Fish and Wildllife Commission. Plus you’re encouraging others to break the law.
If you’re going to purport to be an expert on the Florida Keys and make videos, you need to learn the laws.
Good information for those who are not aware of that law. Thing is, FWC would have to prove that the water was fresh, not salt. I don't get the impression that Dave is 'purporting to be an expert' though and he wasn't the one with the hose pointed at the manatee, so I doubt he is someone FWC would come after for any Karens reporting this video to FWC.
@@MrHellfinger no one had a hose it was the condensation pipe for an air conditioner
You went to The Green Parrot and missed a great bar across the street! It's called The Bearded Lady. It's a staple for locals. I lived in KW for 5 years...
Thanks! Added for the next trip. 😁
Great video!
Thanks! You made my day.😁
It all looks so good 👍
