Hi guys, welcome back.

If my other video went viral yesterday, I'm doing another one today.

I'm so excited.

And today I'm going to add banana to the jelly.

Hopefully we can get this one to go viral as well.

Whoa, this is a tad ball.

What's with all these jelly jars?

Well, my video went viral yesterday, and so I woke up today, I have like

50 new orders, and I want to do another one.

A video?

Yeah.

Wait, a live stream? You've been okay?

Yeah.

Why don't you say hi?

Hey, guys.

This is my stepson.

Maybe he came to help me.

Yeah, sure. I can help you.

So what kind of jelly are you making?

Oh, you know.

Grandma's Very Berry Jelly.

Very Berry?

Mm -hmm.

Okay. The really good one?

Yes. I see banana.

Yeah. Well, today I'm adding banana.

But I've been making the Very Berry Jelly.

Such a tongue twister.

And the grapes, you're making grape jelly too?

I am. Your favorite, right?

You know it.

Yes.

I did do like four or five other ones, but this last one I added perfect

lighting, a little music, and voila.

It's a really fun job.

I can see why everybody's doing these videos now.

So you seriously are, like, famous off jelly videos now?

I am.

It's kind of cool.

Okay. Why did you start making jelly now?

Well, I mean, all these people are doing these videos and making money, so, I

mean, why not, you know?

I don't really want to get a real job.

I mean, and your father's gone all day at work, so this allows me to do a video

while he's gone.

Well, that's cool. I'm glad you found something that you like doing.

Yeah, me too.

And I'm making really good money so far.

Who would have thought?

It's pretty crazy, really.

Yeah, over jelly?

I know, over jelly.

Silly, right?

Yeah, but I'm excited to try some.

Oh, I'm excited for you to try some, too.

Especially because I'm going to be making just grape jelly today.

And I know how you love grape jelly.

Oh, definitely.

There's going to be jelly everywhere.

Well, don't make a mess.

Well, no.

I mean, I'm trying not to make a mess, but you know, it's really sticky and

of messy, actually.

But it's okay.

We got this.

Yeah. I mean, it can't look good on camera if it gets too dirty, right?

True.

Nobody wants to see a dirty kitchen and then eat all my jelly.

That would be kind of dirty, huh?

Yeah. I'd say so.

So, you're just like a jelly -making machine now, huh?

I am.

I just hope I can get all this jelly done in time.

I told him it would only take a couple days for it to ship.

I do have a lot of labels to put on, but if I stay

focused, then I'll be able to get it done.

I'm confident.

Hey, maybe you can help me with some labels.

You can help with some labels?

Maybe, yeah.

I mean, if you're not doing anything.

Yeah, I could help you out with that.

I'll take any help I can get.

I think your slice of the fruit may be a little thick. Is it supposed to be that

way? Yeah, well, you know, I have to boil it down still.

Look at you coming in here telling me how to do it.

My recipe.

Yeah, you're right. I mean, you know best. You have the recipe.

I learned from the best.

Was Grandma really the best, though?

Well, you know, she thought she was.

She did make some really good jelly, though.

Yeah,

yeah, you're right. She did.

Yeah. Didn't get to have it too many times, though.

I know.

God rest her soul.

Oh, well. At least she left us with this great recipe, right?

Definitely.

I'm really glad that you're home.

You can help me with this stuff.

We can get a little camera time, too. What's up, guys?

Yes.

My stepson in the kitchen helping his mom.

We don't really have any hobbies together, so at least I can help you do

That's true.

You

know,

this thing really takes off.

Could you imagine the business I could have?

Yeah. I'm going to need a bigger kitchen, right?

Definitely. Wow. I mean, you were talking about remodeling this place.

Very true.

And I'll get to do it sooner than later if I keep this up.

Imagine a big kitchen.

Do they have double stoves?

Well, I need a really big stove.

Maybe two.

Why not?

Well, I didn't realize that so many views could just bring in that kind of

income. I mean, I think so. I mean, if it keeps going like this, absolutely.

not?

You know?

I guess you're right. Yeah.

Yeah.

It could be really big.

I always wanted an island with a stove on it.

That'd be cool.

That'd be really cool.

So, do you actually think you're going to finish all this by tomorrow?

Well, that's the goal.

I mean, I've got to get it done before your father gets home.

I've got to cook dinner, too.

I know. It is a lot. Maybe I got myself in over my head.

I don't know.

It seems like the right thing to be doing, right?

Yeah. I mean, hey, make your money.

Yeah.

And maybe I can cook this while I'm cooking dinner.

You know.

That's true.

I'll just throw pot roast in.

That'll help.

So I'm going to get to try some of this, right?

Well, I mean, I can't be giving it out for free. Only if you're helping put on

labels. Then I'll let you try it.

Fine.

You know I'm a fool for the jelly.

I mean, you did offer to help.

That's fair, I guess.

Thank you.

Hey, is that water boiling over there?

Uh, yeah, it is.

Perfect.

Okay. It's not on the labels.

And that's how we do it.

Teamwork, right?

Making the guru work.

Hey, how's it going?

Oh, it's going.

I mean, I have so many more boxes that need to be filled and so very little

to do it in.

The post office closes soon, so maybe you can help me,

like, fold some boxes together?

And then that way I can get this stuff filled pretty fast.

Yeah, yeah. No, of course. I can help you out.

Oh, thank you.

I really appreciate everything that you're helping with.

Oh, goodness me.

Kate doesn't look bad, but... Man, so 50 orders, huh?

Well, now that's 50 more orders.

Are you kidding me? No, I'm not kidding you. Are you crazy?

I'm sure we'll make it.

I don't want the jelly to go bad.

Oh, I hope they like it. You think they'll like it?

Oh, I'm sure they'll like it.

I'm

actually

worried about them not liking the jelly, are you?

I mean, kind of.

I did... kind of rushed through it, you know? I mean, I just had so many orders

and, well, I don't know.

Hopefully I used all the ingredients that I was supposed to use.

That looks pretty good. I mean, it looks good to me.

Yeah?

Absolutely. Oh, jeez. I hope so.

And I know it's going to be good, too, because it's the only thing that won't

let me eat out of the jar.

Well, it is making us money, you know.

So, I have to save it for the customers.

Thank you.

How much time do we have?

Not much.

About 20 minutes.

We got this.

Hard to believe that I feel this much already.

No? No, I can't believe it. I mean, first it was just 50 words, and now

actually, like, blowing up. Really.

I know.

I'm kind of crazy. Wait until I post my other video I just did.

How did you not?

When did you find time to make another video?

We were in the kitchen together, remember?

Oh, my God, you're right. I forgot about that one. I was a little distracted. I

was just helping you make the jelly. I know.

I think that should be good for now.

I should get all the orders in.

One, two, three, four.

Oh, wow.

What a day.

This box is almost full.

And this one here is a little more tape.

We got this.

You know, maybe we should take two cars.

Yeah, honestly, the extra space could be nice.

I don't think I'm going to be able to fit it all in my car.

Yeah, you're right.

Okay.

So we'll plan on taking two cars.

I'm wondering.

Oh, you know, the post office lines, they're sometimes a little hectic.

As long as we get in there before they shut that door.

Yeah.

Then they got no choice.

Right. Maybe one of us goes and runs up and gets in line.

Yeah, but this was really big for you, so I'm super happy that you finally are

doing something productive. You're making income, and you can do it all

home. Like, that's amazing.

Mm -hmm.

That's what I think.

I mean, once I get it down, it should be a breeze, you know?

Yeah, absolutely. Everything's just all new.

This is honestly going to go so well.

I can't see any downside to this at all.

I know.

You know, I was thinking while you're in college, you need a side job and it

really blows up. You might as well just come work for me.

Yeah, that'd be awesome.

Do like a mom and stepson business thing. I bet the videos would blow up.

Definitely.

We'd be making all kinds of content.

We really should.

We're a great duo.

Definitely.

I hope everyone likes Grandma's recipe as much as we do.

You might be right about that.

Well, get ready because I'm going to be making more jelly tomorrow.

Jesus.

More sticky stuff.

Sticky and sweet.

I want to start getting some of these boxes loaded up.

Okay, sounds good.

Then I'll just meet you at the post office, yeah? Yeah, sounds good.

Sweet. I'll be there.

Awesome.

Thank you.

Yeah, of course.

What's going on?

Not one nice comment about my jelly.

Seriously? Yeah, like nobody likes it.

Why not? What's going on?

I don't know, but they are so cruel.

Like one guy, he said I must not even be able to read my grandma's recipe right

because obviously it didn't turn out right.

I don't know.

Was it the banana, maybe?

I don't know.

I mean, some of them got just the strawberry, you know? I don't know.

It's so strange.

It's super strange.

I just don't know.

I really thought I had a good thing going here.

Yeah, what the heck?

God, this guy says... I must be blind.

Oh, man. I shouldn't answer that.

I probably should.

Well, that goes nothing.

Hello?

Yes, it is.

Yeah,

I know.

That's what I hear.

I'm so sorry you're disappointed.

You know, let me make it up to you. I'm going to make a fresh batch in the

morning, and I'll send you a couple free ones out. How about that?

Okay, just email me with your name and your address.

Alright, and I'm really sorry.

This next batch will be great, I promise.

Wait and see.

Oh, jeez.

Seriously? Yeah.

That's it, huh?

He was pretty disappointed.

I mean, at least he wasn't as mean as some of the comments that have been

Jeez, those have been bad.

What are some of these comments?

I mean, a couple of them said I was blind, must not be able to read the

right.

Some said I should stick with my grandma.

She should just make the jelly instead of me.

Oh, too bad she just passed away.

Jesus Christ, people are rude.

People are so rude.

They're like, some of them said I was too old to be doing videos, obviously,

because the jelly doesn't taste good at all.

I don't know.

It's really bad.

I mean, it was fine when we tasted it. What happened?

I don't know.

Maybe the cooling packs went bad before it got to them.

But even then, jelly isn't a jar.

I accidentally added something.

Maybe. Well, you did try out the banana, right?

Yeah.

Well, see, not really. I didn't try that one just because, well, we were running

behind on time.

And, I don't know.

I guess I was too worried about getting them to the people instead of getting it

right to the people.

So.

Maybe I should have tried it before I sent it out.

Maybe.

I don't know.

Jeez.

It's unbelievable.

You know, this influencer thing is kind of hard.

Yeah. Sounds like it.

Some of these years I thought it was.

No. Same here.

Jeez.

The comments just keep pouring in.

I guess all I can do is just make some more and try again.

Yeah, I guess so.

You know?

I'm going to lose out on some money this time around, though.

Oh, jeez.

I'm sorry.

Don't be. It's not your fault. You did nothing but try to help me.

I mean... Yeah, I mean, maybe it was something I did.

No, you didn't touch anything.

Gosh, maybe I put too much stuff in.

I don't like the fruit.

I don't know, maybe I boiled it too long.

I don't know.

Okay,

ring, ring.

Another phone call.

Alright.

Hello? Yes, it is.

Yeah, I know.

I heard.

It was pretty bad.

Sir, you don't have to yell at me.

I mean, I can send you some fresh jelly.

I'm going to make a fresh batch tomorrow.

I must have accidentally did something wrong with the last batch. I don't know

exactly.

Well, I mean, I guess I can refund you, but why don't you just let me send you a

fresh batch?

Okay, just send me your name and an email and I'll get you refunded, okay?

Asshole, he just hung up on me.

Seriously? Yeah, he didn't even want another batch of jelly.

He wanted a refund.

God, you didn't have to yell at me like that.

Wait, he really yelled at you? Yeah.

Fucking asshole.

Oh, my God. This is getting ridiculous.

Why is everyone being so rude?

I don't know. It's just jelly, for God's sake.

My God.

I mean, it's only $10 a jar.

Seriously?

That's not even that bad.

I know.

I didn't think that it was the end of the world.

Oh, God.

My following went down, too, a little bit.

Really? Yeah.

By how much? Another video.

A couple hundred thousand.

Oh. Yeah.

I guess it's pretty bad, huh?

Yeah, that's not good.

No, it's not.

Jeez.

Well, you know what? I'll do another video tomorrow, and I'll do a really

one, and I'll make sure.

All the ingredients are right, and you'll try it before I send it out this

okay?

Finally. I should have had you try it last time when you asked.

Yeah. I don't know what I was thinking.

Making me miss out.

Yeah.

We'll get it right next time. Apparently, you didn't miss out on

But, yeah,

we're going to get it right this next time.

I need to get my following back up. I mean, I don't want to lose out on more

money.

I didn't think this was going to be that hard.

God.

I would have known this influencer thing was this hard to keep up on.

God, they're really just pounding you with the negative comments.

I know.

Do you see that?

I mean, they are pretty bad.

They're even calling me names. They don't even know me. What an asshole.

These people are not nice.

No, not at all.

Another one.

Wish me luck.

Hello?

Yes, this is her.

Sir, you don't have to yell at me like that.

It's just jelly.

What?

I can send you a fresh batch. I'm doing one tomorrow.

No. You're going to sue me over jelly?

What?

is insane.

What the?

No.

Whatever.

Fucking asshole. I'm so sick of these people.

God, it's just jelly for God's sake. He said he was going to sue me.

How can you sue me over jelly?

I just don't get it.

Jeez.

Unbelievable.

I don't think I want to do this influencer thing anymore.

I thought it was going to be making money, not being sued and taking all my

money.

Jeez.

Can you believe it?

This is insane.

This is insane.

Not only is it a lot of work, it's just very stressful.

You know?

Jeez.

All you can do is just take it and take it.

I guess so.

You shouldn't give up.

I know, but I really want to.

I mean, especially after that last phone call.

I've never been threatened to be sued before.

I mean, and over jelly?

Could you imagine if your father found out?

Yeah, some of these are harder to handle than others, but... Oh, man.

You just gotta keep on going, you know?

Yeah.

Get up early in the morning and just start a fresh batch.

You know?

Yeah.

A new day can start.

Yeah. It'll be a new day.

I'll put my phone on silent so I don't have to hear from these assholes.

And we'll start again.

It's got me really frustrated, too.

I know, right?

I'm really stumped. Yeah, it's really mind -puzzling.

One guy said his head was white in the middle of the jelly.

Seriously? Yeah, do you think it was the bananas?

That must be it.

It seems like it wouldn't be white, though.

I don't know.

I mean, bananas are pretty white. If it wasn't that, what else could it have

been? I don't know if it's true.

Not unless the soda just didn't get mixed in it very well.

I don't know.

Oh, yeah, there's that, too.

No, you can't do that. I can't. I can't do that.

Oh, you finally found something that you like doing. I know. I really did. I

enjoyed making that video.

Putting the music and the lights with it and everything.

Yeah. It was a lot of fun.

Yeah, I could see it on your face. You like doing it.

Maybe I should just be an editor.

No.

I don't know.

Come on, you get a couple of angry customers and you're already ready to

up. I mean...

A couple.

A lot more than a couple.

But I guess, yeah, you're right.

I can't give up.

And I have you to help me.

Of course. You're going to taste it.

Absolutely. And we won't send it out unless it's perfect.

Yeah, I'll be a little taste tester.

Grimmel's probably looking down on us, kind of shaking her head.

Yeah, she's like, dang it.

They messed up the recipe again.

I know.

Jeez.

I can't believe it.

I wish people weren't so cruel in the comments, though.

Can I delete those?

I think you can.

I should look into that.

Yeah, that'd be a good idea. Try and keep some positivity going.

Yeah, alright.

We don't want everyone to think that... My jelly is awful.

And they'll never try it.

Even when it is a good batch.

Yeah, exactly.

Jeez.

That's something we can look into. We'll go and check it out and see if we can't

just get rid of some of those really terrible comments.

Yeah.

I don't like half of them.

I mean, if this is the low point, that means we can only go up from here,

That's true.

Very true.

I like your positive thinking.

Yeah, you gotta stay positive at these times, you know? Yeah, for sure.

It really makes a difference.

It does.

I would have gave up by now if I didn't have you.

Oh, I don't think that would happen.

No. pretty sure I would have. I probably would have just turned my phone off.

That would have been a bummer. And then deleted my account.

This was just one bad batch. If you did that, I'd never have a chance to try it

again. That's true.

That's a good way of putting it.

Hmm. Jeez.

Yeah.

Is that guy really trying to sue you, though? He said he was. He said I was

going to hear from his lawyer. Then he hung up on me.

He can't really be serious.

I can't imagine. It would even be worth taking me to court over.

He only ordered, like, ten jars.

Oh, that's not a big deal at all. I mean, if anything, I could refund him

money, you know?

Yeah. But sue me?

That's a little extreme.

I mean, how many people really go to their lawyers?

True.

And over something so petty.

I guess there are people in the world like that, though. I seem to forget that

sometimes.

Yeah.

Sad to say it.

There are people out there like that.

Yeah.

You

know,

maybe I should just perfect the fairy one.

And not add the bananas and stuff. I think that was a really bad idea.

Yeah. It might have been.

Yeah. I mean, if this is what happens and you experiment with it.

I guess so.

I mean, hindsight 2020, maybe the first batch you send out shouldn't have been

an experimental run.

Yeah, true.

The video was really good, though.

Yeah.

We both did.

Yeah.

I have a lot of work to do tomorrow.

Yes, we do.

But it's going to be fun.

Yeah.

And we're like a good duo, you know?

Yeah. Yeah.

I like it.

I have a whole bunch of ideas that I want to tell you later.

Well, I'll hear them.

Whatever you have to say.

I should probably take your advice from now on.

Can't forget to delete those comments too, okay?

No, you're right.

We'll take care of that this evening.

Perfect.

That guy who said he was going to sue me.

Yeah, that guy's crazy.

You're telling me.

I'm not going to lie, I kind of want to read some more of the comments.

Do you really?

Yeah, I do.

I mean, they were pretty bad.

They were bad.

All I can do is just laugh about it.

Yeah, I'm getting kind of hungry. How about you?

Yeah, me too.

Let's look at some.

Um, I think I'll do the cooking tonight.
