One more thing when you're out and about in nature...download the FREE Merlin app. Let it record for about 10 to 20 minutes, and it will help you identify all the different song birds you hear. For me, it's addicting, and the past 2 months just sitting in my window of my sunroom pointed out to my backyard that is 100 acres of woods, I've gotten 65 different species of birds singing out there. For me...it's amazing.

In February, I sent you the pickle-making kit. Personally, I'd like to see you make those pickles. There are many other DIY kits or just kits to make things out there for different things. Step out of your comfort zone and try to make soap, try pottery, bust open a geode, or go out and find geodes. There is something called Geocaching; they have it all across the US. It's kinda like a "treasure hunt", and with Spring coming, it's a way to be outside...check it out. The past few years, my fiance and I have been taking an Amtrac train from South Carolina to Maryland to visit with our grandbabies and my son, we love it...TAKE A TRAIN ANYWHERE. They have sleeping cars with dining cars, no traffic to drive through, don't care about the weather, the train will take you through places you can't take a car...check it out. Check out "Glamping .com"; rent a tree house, tepee, farmhouse, cabin, or something crazy for the weekend. DIY anything, try a craft, do something different you think you might not like and do it anyway.

Please watch Mom, 2 Broke Girls and of course keep up with Buffy the Vampire Slayer-maybe the OG Charmed? Some movies like Road Trip (2000) the American Pie series, My Girl 2, For Richer or Poorer with Kirstie Alley, First Wives Club Food and travel reactions would be fun to see as well. Maybe some viral TikTok recipes made at home in addition to restaurant meals

John Morgan

React to some music videos, Michael Jackson's Thriller would have been a great one for Hallowbeans.

Laymo13

Please do MR. MOM in honor of Teri Garr.

Jay Perry

Obscure movies and shows, like A Scanner Darkly, Paprika, Evil Bong.

Mathias Nani

New experiences would be fun. I enjoy watching people try new foods, go to new places. The ghost hunting vlogs are fun perhaps something else in the vlog format would be fun ghost tours, old battlefields… As for video content I’m still waiting for TMNT 2 secret of the Ooze.

Tara

Personally I'm less interested in franchises and endless sequels - much rather you did a 'classics' series with more older movies. Also really enjoying your TV reactions, so more of that would be cool. Love your stuff, thanks for keeping me entertained. x

Kenton Kruger

I think Mr. Mom is the biggest remaining movie of hers that Ashleigh has not done yet.

keoma songs

I've only just joined the Patreon today. I like the movie reactions. Going back through some of the polls, maybe limit the polls to 4 or 5 choices max, I don't know? Is there a link to a document that covers movies already seen?

JMatt

Reactions to songs you haven’t heard?

JMatt

I like this!

Chris Carman

Teri Garr, y'all. Teri Garr... 🕊️

Ted Little

Frankly, I have little interest in and seldom watch reactions to movies made after about 1968. I want movies to entertain, not depress me. This is not to suggest that all earlier movies are wonderful, that great movies have not been made since, nor to disparage the tastes of any of your other patrons; it is merely my personal preference.

JC

Also if Ashleigh wants to appease all the Marvel haters instead of the Marvel fans, since there is still so much content to get through with the shows added now, I would personally be willing to pay extra for a "Marvel Reactions" tier or channel if it would get everyone to shut up

JC

I don't have much to say re: the second channel, but I do have a suggestion for the main channel - limit the number of months per year a franchise can win. After any franchise wins say 2 months of the year, keep it off polls until the following year. I don't care for James Bond, so I would at least know that once it wins twice, I don't have to worry about it for a while, and same for everyone tired of Marvel. It would help get more franchises in rotation on polls, force people to vote for other things, and hopefull would get people to quit whining all the time when something they don't like wins.

Robert Dilley

I too would like to see Twitch VODS on YouTube. 2nd channel could have more travel content, family&friends. Even OMG cooking& baking! Would love for you to live steam a movie reaction or 2, food for thought.

OldBroadWithBaggage (Robin)

I love the Twitch, the movies and TV format on YouTube (though I'd love a few more older movies but some people don't enjoy old b&w movies). I'd love more travel on the 2nd channel. Christmas towns, New Orleans for Halloween, fun summer destinations. Love the videos with your Mom. Would be fun to see your family's Thanksgiving celebration, if you do that. I really just enjoy you bringing us your best life. You've worked hard for this, enjoy it!

OldBroadWithBaggage (Robin)

Reach out to the Horror Band Wagon guys. They do this all of the time. For movies I believe they do it on Discord, but they live stream video games on YouTube. Just recently watched a live stream movie with them, on Discord. They show the video and have chat at the same time.

Susan AKA Maisy13(YT) AKA Susan_is_still_in_progress (threads,IG)

I think it would be good to move the tv polls to the lower tier and for the higher tier to have exclusive content, watch-alongs to shows (and maybe movies) that might one day be edited in a Supercut for YouTube, but for now is just for that tier. The reason I don't up my membership is that poll voting isn't great for me as what I want rarely wins, and I don't get to watch gaming content (my schedule doesn't match up with Twitch schedule), so I don't see the point in the extra cost.

Susan AKA Maisy13(YT) AKA Susan_is_still_in_progress (threads,IG)

I for one would love to see Twitch VODS on YouTube, but I'm not so sure it should be on the second channel, more like a, dare I say it? THIRD channel. Adding the VODS might screw with the analytics of the second channel. But I do wish the VODS were on YouTube, as I can't watch live and it would be nice to watch the video WITHOUT the Twitch alerts. Ghost Hunting is fine, but I prefer that to be seasonal, personally, and you could have other Seasonal content. Spring could be for learning new things, Summer hitting the road for summer road trips, Fall haunted stuff and Winter could be for home decorating and hometown fun. Or you can mix and match them all for the whole year, I just like looing forward to something and the wait it part of the fun, though analytically that could be dicey.

Kenton Kruger

Wholeheartedly agree, I've been pushing for more Ashleigh's picks for ages.

Cass&Jason

Yeah, there are a ton of movies I'd love to see -- many from the 90's, which I know wasn't that long ago, but people seem to fixate on the 80's. And if my idea doesn't work, well, then I guess Wednesdays become Ashleigh's Choice. Any movie, any year, any genre. Don't see how anyone can complain about that. 🤣

Kenton Kruger

Yeah, I'm not even sure how picky Patreon is about their terms. When it came up before Ashleigh had forgotten to close the slot when it opened and Tocci jumped in, so the whole idea became irrelevant. I do like the idea of somehow getting non-poll winning movies reacted to. Polls come with a definite recency bias for one, plus it was nice with the MMMembers to sometimes pick things that weren't the huge mainstream hits.

Cass&Jason

Really? Weird. ETA I found the TOS and I think I didn't explain properly. What I was proposing was converting the TV tier to the old MMM tier. Everyone would choose a movie eventually -- just like the MMM -- but not as often as the MMMs did. Does that make sense? We could cycle through alphabetically, instead of drawing names. That would remove the "raffle" aspect. Instead of 4 people choosing every month, it would be 50-ish people every year. One a week.

Kenton Kruger

She had floated the idea of a name draw from that tier for picking a movie before when a MMMember slot was opening up, but a look at Patreons terms of service showed that would likely be in violation.

Chel Van Hel

Eating food you have never tried before. I also liked your workout video 😂

Cass&Jason

Haven't read all the comments yet, so if someone has already made this suggestion, my apologies. Voting for the tv polls is really, really low. I do not know if that's because of the number of members in that tier or if interest is not particularly high. So, I would suggest eliminating the tv polls and adding a 3rd movie. However, perhaps to get those tier numbers up, I would recommend doing a draw from that tier -- draw 4 names and those people can choose a movie. Once your name is drawn, it can't be drawn again until everyone from that tier chooses a movie. I think that might add some variety around here. And a chance to see movies that would never win a poll because they're too obscure or people hate them or whatever. Don't get me wrong, there are a ton of shows that I'd love to see reactions for, but I think people might be more excited about more movies -- and getting to choose a movie! (HallowBeans, of course, would still be open to everyone.)

Snow Goon

I love your channel and pretty much all of what you're doing. If I could suggest anything at all, it would be to keep older movies in the rotation more often. I understand wanting to do more Marvel and current TV shows, but I've got to admit that I'm always most interested in your reactions to movies from the '80s or earlier. There are plenty of old black and white movies I'd love you to see as well.

Chuckster_Wuckster

I really liked the New York Irish Pub video and your general New York video on your second channel. Start an "Ashleigh as a tourist" video series. Travel to states, or sections of states, and do the touristy things and film your reaction. I would love to see you on an air boat in the Louisiana swamp, snorkeling and then having drinks at a bar in Key West discussing the experience. Go to my state of Texas and spend a day or two on a ranch and live your 'City Slickers' life! Start out by making a few stops on the Tennessee whiskey trail and give us your opinion. Use your drone to get cool footage of you in the beauty of Appalachia in the fall as your opener. Do that for each video, you talking to the drone, then it shoots up showing where you are. The US is a mighty cool place, show us Ashleigh being Ashleigh while you find these awesome places in the US.

Art By Design

Well you are a ray of sunshine…while you are trying to shine a light on your issues with the polls on the main channel…you may want to pay more attention because 2/3 of your examples of “ignored/not put on tribute polls” were on the polls and lost (Convoy 25% and Conan 37%)! Yes the polling process is not perfect…but it is tricking. She is trying to manage options without doing too much research and spoiling the reactions.

Emily Gray

Gaming would be awesome. Trying new things, going new places (meeting some of your fans and have them show you around their town..) all awesome and we're all here for it!!!

Emily Gray

Hell yea! I'd meet ya here!

Bleedingreen

Go to Oregon to hang with the girls

David Billings

I would love to see you react to 80's barbarian/fantasy movies. On your second channel, I would love to see you learn fly fishing or just take a fishing trip.

Joe Blankenship

What about the stuff you watch outside of reactions? You could count down your top 5 episodes of Mama's Family or Golden Girls or something. Or ASMR Parkour.

iamrman82

I would love to see you do more taste testing of foreign treats.

Asheenah

I love the food trying and blog videos! Ghost hunting is "eh" for me but I'll watch it because I love you!

Ben Levin

I really enjoy your visits to new places and when you taste new foods, snacks from other countries, etc. Oh, and watch Tootsie!🤣

Jeb Manning

Another thing I'd suggest is maybe reactions to other YouTubers content? Stuff like: -ADSfMovie series by TomSka -The choose your own adventure series created by Markiplier. They're called A Date with Markiplier, A Heist with Markiplier, and In Space with Markiplier. -Winter of '83 by Linkara -Marble Hornets by Troy Wagner -The short stopmotion movies made by The Lone Animator AKA Bluworm -The horror short films made for the CryptTV youtube channel

Jeb Manning

I love your movie and TV reactions. I'd love to see more older movie reactions, though, like the Universal Monster movies. Maybe some theme months for movies would be cool, like Jurassic June, where you react to dinosaur movies or Monster Mash March, where you do horror movies from the 30's, 40's, and 50's. would be cool.

Mary Brown

I like this idea!! The full live stream is fun, but I just don't always have time to hang out that long.

Alijammy

I enjoy that you have a good mix of content. Most I love, but some are not for me. I expect that’s the same for everyone so keep mixing it up and I’ll keep watching the ones that appeal to me and supporting on Patreon. Honestly I’m happy if you just keep enjoying what you do and sharing it. I hope to see Private Benjamin and GI Jane though as my wish list.

Rob Rainone

Yes My So-Called Life! I didn’t know how badly I wanted to see this reaction until you said it!

Alijammy

I’d like to see highlights of your live unboxing as I struggle to have enough time to watch the full unboxing. If that could be an hour that would be amazing.

TheSingulatarian

Need to pay attention to the primary channel. Obvious choices are being ignored and not put on polls. Prime of Miss Jean Brody ignored and not but on Death Tribute poll. Conan the Barbarian ignored and not put on James Earl Jones Death Tribute poll. Convoy ignored and not put on Kris Christopherson Death tribut poll. I don't mind losing in a poll but a poll designed to force a particular outcome isn't really a poll. Ashliegh is getting some bad advice from somewhere and view counts are down. Especially relative to other reaction channels. A format that Ashliegh was one of the first people doing it. Perhaps she needs a pre poll to pick the final selections for her poll. I am not saying this to be mean but rather from a place of friendship and respect. It is just some GenX tough love. You are in danger of killing the Golden Goose.

Cathy L

I would love to see vlogs of u, Blake and the fur babies just doin your daily thing! :) or even life q&a’s with u and Blake! :)

MechaGai

Also it's kind of funny you mention a list of things she's received when she can physically look at all them in front of her.

MechaGai

It can't always be older classics. Doing YouTube videos requires a bit of trend following and changing things up to stay relevant and the algorithm gods happy. That's the nature of it, unfortunately.

MechaGai

I would love for you to come out to Orlando to experience Halloween Horror Nights and Universal in general. Also, Epic Universe opens next week so visiting a brand new park would be cool.

Tammy McCaffrey

I use OBS to live stream and filter it to twitch. I think u can filter it to youtube also?

Tammy McCaffrey

Phasmophobia!!!

Tammy McCaffrey

Ohhh pleaseeee do this!!

Crystal Wood

You have so many movies in your PO Box library that you’ll never get to watch them all if you keep changing things up/expanding. You’ll spread yourself out too thin trying to gain new followers that you’ll lose your original fan base.

Tammy McCaffrey

Ohhhh I like the civil war idea!!

Tammy McCaffrey

Where can we add to a list of movies?

Tammy McCaffrey

I wanna see you play phasmophobia!!

Crystal Wood

I’d really like for you to go through the Google Docs list that Tyler keeps for you and watch the movies people have sent you in your PO Box. They took the time to mail you movies and lots of them are really worth watching! I’m tired of Franchise Fridays where we got stuck in Marvel. And no offense to the top tier patrons, but why did they start you watching “The Last of Us” and “The Boys” and those kinds of shows? They’re not “older classics”. It’s been a real bummer…

Staryu

Would love a Dollywood video <3 also I know this is about your 2nd channel buttttt BUFFY season 2/3 videos pleaseeee

Bill Bevins

Would like too see more old movies from the 30s, 40s and 50s. There are some excellent movies that need to be remembered from that time period. The Thin Man series of movies would be great.

1000thghost

I would love to see you guys go to Dollywood. Also, dragon con is a large convention that's held in Atlanta over Labor Day weekend every year. That would be fun. Maybe some civil war battlegrounds with history by Blake.

Mr Marvelous

Great idea as some of us aren't on twitch

Mr Marvelous

Maybe a trip to Chattanooga to ride on The Polar Express Train ride and stay in The Chattanooga choo choo hotel

Don Wagner

Honestly as animated as you get when watching intense movies, maybe putting up gameplay clips or first time playthroughs would be a good idea.

Tyler Foster

I don't think she'll be putting any movie reaction content on the second channel.

Zombie

What are some of YOUR favorite reactions, which movies did you have the most fun with?? We could recommend stuff like it. - As far as the Second Channel, anything! The Richard Simmons video actually drew me in, and the Buffy series made me stay! Love watching games on Twitch also. Might be great to have a shortened version on YT but that’s going to be a ton of video to edit. Would love some more big ol’ Beans footage or any day to day stuff you’d like to share!

Tony Williams

Great idea about "classic" flixs. She could perhaps dedicate 1 day per month on the second channel where we could get some movies made before say 1970 or some such. That would help with one upload per month on the second channel as well as help build some crossover from the main channel.

Michael Parker

First time 'things' would be fun! Foods, activities, cultures, etc.

Michael Mammano-Cheydleur

I can't believe I don't remember that. I'll have to watch it again!

Laura Neary Smith

I seriously love whenever you pick what YOU want to watch, I’d love to see more of those where it’s like a “treat yourself day” to whatever movie of any genre you feel like watching! I’m a huge classic film and musical fan so I’d of course love for you to see more old movies. But I’d watch you watch paint dry lol, so honestly whatever you and Blake decide to film and share is good by me, you’re always so fun and entertaining. Big appreciate you & everything you do! 🫶🫶🫶

James Allen

Also, maybe watch the behind the scenes stuff for your favourite movies that you've watched on the channel? That'd be unique

Tyler Foster

I can probably help you figure out how to do this in Discord. Probably.

Ashleigh Burton

DUDE I WANT TO SO BAD

Ashleigh Burton

we really want to do some international travel!

Ashleigh Burton

I get all my suggestions for shows and movies here an don YouTube live chat!

Ashleigh Burton

I'm sure you're BOUND to suggest many things.....

Kyle Diller

I think they just start a live stream. Don't show any of the movie or have any audio and we sync up and watch along.

Ashleigh Burton

Gremlins 2 is on the channel!

Ashleigh Burton

Do you know how other people are doing this?? Is it a feature on a streaming service? Is it just giving people time to get join the live & then counting down to pressing play?

Adam Doyle

Food reviews / blind taste test, like GMM or People Vs Food.

Kyle Diller

I think it would be cool if you did one of your reaction videos as a live stream watch along.

Michael Mammano-Cheydleur

While there are a lot of series I'd love to see you cover, most of them are quite a commitment in terms of length. Thus, I'd instead recommend some entries under the "Brilliant but Cancelled" umbrella, which are really good but didn't last long, such as: My So-called Life (19 episodes) Freaks and Geeks (18 episodes) Sense8 (24 episodes) Tales of the City (1993 miniseries; 6 episodes) As for films, I'd love to see your reactions to: Gremlins 2: The New Batch (1990) My Boyfriend's Back (1993) Beautiful Thing (1996) Maid to Order (1987)

Anthony Willis

love the travel vlogs... maybe some more cooking weird things with blake, momma burton, or even something with brother hunter would be hilarious & fun. whatever it is, i'll watch it 😁

Gio Vidrio

I think more cooking and baking with the fam needs to happen this Jingle Beans!

Ellen Tschida

More travel stuff would be the BEST

Echo Moon

This is a wonderful idea Little Sis, so happy you are asking for input. :) For the second channel I would love to see you and Hubben in Atlanta visiting a few places like Stone Mountain (you have to stay for the laser show at night), The World of Coca-Cola Museum where you can try international flavors you can't find here, the Aquarium, underground Atlanta, the Skyview Ferris Wheel, the Atlanta Botanical Gardens where they have huge sculptures made of plants/flowers, Krog Street Tunnel for something "different" where there is some really cool street art/grafitti art (the Cabbagetown end of the tunnel near Wylie st. has the best art) and if you can time it for Halloween next year check out Netherworld one of the biggest haunted houses in the country. :) Fall is the best time to visit Atlanta so it's not so hot. You will need a few days to see all this plus anything else you find you want to see there but you can get a few good vids for the channel out of one trip. :) Oh, and you MUST make a little trip about 20 miles west to Marietta and have a meal at The Big Chicken!! You won't regret visiting. :) (if you don't know what the big chicken is you can google it, they have their own wikipedia page) LOL Also, I really enjoyed your "eating" vids you had early on where you try things folks send you that you may not have ever tried before, so maybe some more of that. ;) And as always, more Hubben! Ya'll play off each other so cutely. And girl, on a side note, you almost got me when you "floated" off the bed in the ghost hunting vid!! Love ya, Huggs!!!

Tony Williams

Maybe mix in some classic or even newer stand up comedian reactions on the second channel. Would love to see you discover Bill Hicks or watch some classic sets from Richard Pryor, George Carlin, and Eddie Murphy. ALSO: Perhaps more little contests of some sort that would maybe give one dedicated viewer a chance to pick a movie. Could even set it up so that there would be one Contest Winner movie every 3 months or so. That way we wouldn't all get beat down very often if the chosen movies tend not to be "for everybody". Anyway, just wanted to try and help out, but more Blake is also always welcomes. Peace.

Cody Cameron

I enjoy your travel VLOGs but also you doing first try would be fun. But whatever you end up doing I am sure we will have fun with it.

fanofactionflicks

I like your vee logs, your tasting different snacks and food from different places is always fun.

Lynette Cummins

I enjoy videos of your travels and shenanigans. Also videos of you and your mom cooking. ☺️

Michael McSwiney

YouTube access to the gaming content would be awesome!

Brittany Winter

Clips are always fun to Share. On location vids are fun. Maybe a vid with sam and Colby from yt? They are ghost experts or celinaspookyboo she loves the horror movies you've been doing as of late.

Dimi

I would like you to react to funny compilations and interesting (maybe fact-based) videos about....... well......... any subject more or less

Mikey Hutchinson

Deffo put your gaming content on there. You could explore some game culture as well. Like the history of certain games you’re playing, or planning on playing. Outside of gaming content, a few behind the scenes things?

Rob Rainone

Awesome! Thank you.

Tyler Foster

Somehow I think you might be able to guess what I want to see on the main channel in 2025, if not before then

Tyler Foster

Moonstruck is indeed on the channel.

Rob Rainone

I’m not really answering your question but… I’d like to know how movies/ tv shows get added to your polls? There are movies and tv I would love to suggest that I think you’d thoroughly enjoy, both dramatic and hysterical, but short of sending you cash (which I have thought about - lol) I’m not sure how to do that. On my list are things like some select episodes from the sitcom Mom, the HBO series Six Feet Under, the movies Doubt, Moonstruck (did I miss this one?) and Team America

adorkablefatty Piedra

The bloopers on the second channel i could watch hours worth of compilations. More hubben if he's willing. Yall are so cute. I absolutely love when you do challenges or try new places. My only slight complaint is the music style. I'm excited to see what's coming up. Thank you for bringing joy to so many folks and showing us YouTube life isn't perfect. It's a breath of fresh air.

Scott Margeson

Day trips, cooking with momma (or hubben), etc. Things like that would be fun. Runs to Taco Ball, even! Story times (because your stories on Twitch are hilarious). I think linking gaming streams to the second channel would be cool! Or even live stream on both platforms (big brain Ashleigh would come out).
