Thanks for posting this! My aunty was a secretary at Warner Brothers in the 1940's and was recruited by Bette Davis to be a Canteen Hostess. My aunty was VERY glamourous and beautiful! She had very fond memories of The Hollywood Canteen and enjoyed her time there. Thanks again for posting this!

Love this video. Have watched it before but enjoyed watching it again. Bette Davis and John Garfield are two of my favourite actors. I have the movie "Hollywood Canteen" and it is wonderful to watch. Yes! there definitely should be a plaque. It's a piece of Hollywood history!! I wish that a lot of these old places had been protected and landmarked. Such a shame to not appreciate the beautiful Houses and buildings. Thanks Jordan it was a fun video. All the best. Jah is the cutest dog ever!!

Hollywood Canteen!!! Thanks for showing us the Hollywood we"ve always heard about!!

This guy is so cute. His youth and enthusiasm are infectious. Love his crisp and clear voice, enthusiasm I said that already), his love of Jah (little doggie), movie history. I love the way these videos are filmed. I feel like I'm there! My friend lives in California, south. We visited Los Angeles, Hollywood but now I have ideas of where I want to go thanks to this man next time I go to Cali. (in May maybe?).

What a great Hollywood icon in it's time. And you're right. There should be a memorial on this sight.

I found a small photo album of my dad's. He passed in 1989. On the front of the album it said Hollywood Canteen. I googled it found it's location and some history on it. My dad had some family pictures and some military pictures I am assuming buddies. I had a feeling you would have something on it with Bette Davis and John Garfield and numerous other Hollywood stars being involved. Thank you.

I love that! Thank you Jordan.

I LOVE Bette Davis and all the stars 🌟 you mentioned!! Great vlog as always!! Good job!

Don't forget Roy Rogers' horse, Trigger was in the movie.

Have always loved the fact that the stars were willing to give their time to our servicemen like they did. Also the movie "Hollywood Canteen" is just a dream-come-true movie for that sweet little soldier Robert Hutton played! Love it! Great vlog, Jordan! Janey

Jordan. you are the BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love Bette Davis, and have recently been watching some of her old movies, so I really enjoyed this vlog, Jordan. Thank you so much.

Thanks for sharing.

Thank u Jordan. Such a wonderful story. Sadly this would be long forgotten since no aspect of the structure is still around if ppl like u didn't understand the Importance of keeping these memories alive and well. Again thank u for another top notch vid.

Another great vlog! So interesting, never heard of it, looking up the movie to see this weekend! What a piece of Hollywood History! Ty Jordan. All those famous celebrities helping out-that must of been great in it's time!

Love the movie Hollywood Canteen watch every time it comes on as a kid when I first seen it I had such a crush on Joan Leslie 😍 P.S.I still do!

Man I would have loved to live in those simple times. 👍🏽🇲🇽

Another brilliant video. One of my favourite!!!

It was a cool place

I JUST CAN'T STOP WATCHING YOUR VIDEOS SINCE THE DAY I DISCOVERED THEM ,I SUSCRIBE IMMEDIATELY ....IS LIKE .WHERE IS THIS GUY GOING TO TAKE US TODAY?,,,, I HAVE THIS NOSTALGIC FEELING OF THOSE HOLLYWOOD GOLDEN YEARS AND I WOULD DO THE SAME IF I WERE THERE TO LOOK FOR THE ORIGINAL PLACES OF ALL THOSE CELEBRITIES,THEIR HOMES ,CINEMA STUDIOS ETC.......LOVE YOUR DOG....VERY CUTE ..THANKS FOR YOUR VIDEOS I APPRECIATE, AND ENJOY THEM ALMOST AS IF I WERE THERE ...PLEASE TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF

Thanks another great vlog.

Thanks for sharing your vlog on the Hollywood Cantina. I love these videos on Hollywood history

Love that dog!!

Again fantastic stuff

Very interesting. I never knew about this. Too bad it couldn't continue.

If Lionhearts go back to vlog 264 I think of the story how you got Jah it's funny because you showed us how he loved laying in clean clothes then...I love it and if anyone hasn't seen it do it. It's such a heartwarming story about Jah and a tribute to your dad. Your just incredible 😍

GOOD MORNING JORDAN AND JAH!!!! ALWAYS A AWESOME VID... THANKS.

Jordan, are you from here in Indiana? I live down by Louisville, Kentucky. Me and the wife love your work.

Bette Davis sings a song in the movie, I believe. Called "They're Either Too Old or Too Young."

Wow so cool. Wish we were as united as back then. That's so neat for celebrities to donate time for these men. And that modern building is strange. I don't think I like it very much. Great vlog full of history Jordan💙

ok i tried to find if you have done one on Bette Davis home. Have you been there. if not i would love to see that. Thanks I love your shows so much.. You have taken me places i have always wanted to go. Some i have never though about.. M*A*S*H on was amazing but they lol really all are.. again Thank you for all you do...

Hi Jordan great Volg thank you kisses from Puerto Rico 🤗🤗

Love your content 💯😍

Thanks for doing these blogs my wife and I really enjoy them

I live near Cushing academy where she went to school

that's a great idea to watch the movie Hollywood canteen thanks Jordon for the information buddy

This is where Dinah Shore met her husband George Montgomery. The night they met Dinah was performing and George was a dishwasher

Wow fantastic history...love old hollywood....Dr Demento is still alive? Use to listen to him long long ago

What a great little vlog and I agree it’s a shame they don’t have a plaque to commemorate the Canteen being there in past . Glad you both had a great time on your date that pizza looked so tasty . Hope your car get fixed at last . 👍🏻💙🎥🎬🐶🦁👍🏻

Moms vlog didn’t disappoint. Very informative! I’m going to try and find the old movie 🍿 🎥 will make for a good Sunday afternoon. Thanks again Jordan.

As Trevor said, “fantastic stuff” Jordan! I knew about the Hollywood Canteen, but never knew it was across the street from Amoeba. Once again I learned something new and fun from your vlogs! That pizza 🍕 looks to die for! Jah always brings a smile to my face. He is so adorable. 😊

Great stuff. I'm a collector of Old Hollywood. I also have a great book devoted to The Hollywood Canteen. Love Amoeba when Im visiting L.A.

I just had to check out that coffee site! And......had to get some! Tfs!

Yay for Dr Demento grew up listening to Him ..What a wonderful thing that "Stage Door" very heart warming and positve

I subscribed too you not long ago ,I really enjoy your videos ,your videos are very good ,keep up the good job 😄 God bless you

Really interesting history! I didn't think you were ever going to run out of celebrity names! Pretty cool!

Wow great material your covering. I just became a subscriber and I can’t stop watching. I really enjoy the old entertainment industry. Thanks for your work. Glad I saw you on Adamthewoo channel. Have a great day

love your videos , best in HOLLYWOOD and I lived there for 10 years ! 1811 Whitley Ave " THE FONTENOY " you should do a show ! Jean Harlow to Nixon to Duke and Dutchess to Johnny Depp to Nicholas Cage to Crispen Grvoer all lived there

I love all your vlogs and can't stop watching you. Thanks for this little piece of Hollywood, there are so many changes to it, and that is really sad. #JordantheLionyouROCK!

Glad these vlogs were made before COVID came along and changed everyone's life. It will never be the same again, no never! Vaccine or no vaccine, life will never be the same, and new films may never be seen.

That Pizza...wow....almost worth travelling from Oz for! Hopefully one day!

You are right Jordan, there should be a plaque on all the historical locations, it would only enhance the city of Los Angeles. Super good video, thanks.

Such a shame so many historical buildings are torn down and replaced by those modern monstrosities.. Love when you document the history of Hollywood. Love to Juh.

So many visitors in the short time it was open. It must have been packed full every day. The pizza looked really good too.

Jordan, I love this Vlog!! How can we get this on the National Register of Historical Places...? Let’s get a plaque there..... or a statue!

You left out Eddie Cantor! He performed there once a week and was the Canteen's Santa Claus in 1942, '43 and '44!!! Cantor appeared in "Hollywood Canteen" (WB, 1944).

This was wonderful and that you did it, now it will be history and we will always know where millions of GI's and Hollywood gathered, for a good cause. But, my favorite part was Jah. In the laundry. Best part!

Very cool! Didn't realise this was am actual place, not just a movie.

Good stuff in the 80's Gelson was Mayfair and I met Wayne Knight of Seinfeld there and in the late 70's I use to play Basketball and was friend with Ernest Harden Jr. at West Hollywood Park who co-starred in White Mama in 1980 with Betty Davis. Across the street from CNN Jack in the Box Met Larry King. Graduated Fairfax High in 77 so every place you go was my stomping ground and makes me homesick.

Too bad CNN doesn't have a historical plack to say that's where the Hollywood Canteen was located.

❤❤

Off to the Canteen-hope the car stuff gets in order soon! Seal! my Himalayan cat says hi to his buddy Jah (and to you too Jordan! . Love, love, love your stuff-his stuff is going to be flying around you tube really fast. My favourite subscribe glad I found this channel-Jordan is so personable.

Jah's the best!!! Love the Canteen story. Bet the Canteen meant a lot to service men and women.

saw a movie on Turner that was at the canteen and showed alot of stars helping in there during the war alot of soliders in there

I love Jean Author

Nice :)

Great video. I have the film " Hollywood Canteen " It's a cute film and it's so funny to see these famous movie stars serving the service men. Hard to believe this actually happened. Can't imagine it working today. Shame.

Chocolate cherry sounds good :-)

Loved Dr Demento!! I believe Betty Davis actually SINGS in the movie Hollywood Canteen. Heard she hated her singing voice but did it for the cause! Don’t no if that’s true, but I don’t recall her singing in anything else!! I absolutely loved this vlog❤️. Thanks Jordan. Gonna go see what I can find on Dr Demento!!!!

Good morning. Brill blog Jordan

Jordan, what about Shirley Temple ..u didn't mention her ;/

Jordan, I love your videos, but I have a little constructive comment to make. Someone whose opinion I respect told me that the site of the Hollywood Canteen was on what is now the 4-story garage just SOUTH of the CNN building (or just to the LEFT of the CNN Building in the shot you hold on.) Now, perhaps that garage was the Canteen's entrance, and the actual Canteen's room(s) extended NORTH all the way to Sunset Blvd., so that would make the CNN building still part of the old Canteen site. An L.A. Historical Society official or member would give you a definitive answer, and put all to this to rest, of course.

Too bad KZfaq doesn't have smell o vision. That pizza looked really good!

Sunset Gower studios,,is there a Welsh connection there????,,

Love the blogs!! Sad fake news CNN replaced such an historical site

11,000 SUBSCRIBERS!

now THAT's a pizza pie

My dad Papa Mike Leone and Sea Bee's Band at The Holywood Canteen 1945 with actor Jack Carson. I have a photo.. trying to join your FB page. I'll share it with you.

That pizza looked hella good🤗🤗

Hey Jordan. I know how you feel about your car. I have had my car since it was new in 2006, lol. I know about bad mechanics in the past. Let's hear it for no car payments!! Love me some Jah

Hey If you mention my Tour Co on your vlog I will pay you.

I think I caught whatever you had. LOL! Just miserable. How you kept going, while I'm dying on the couch....

Bettie Davis is not bad looking when she was a young actress

Wow that pizza looked amazing😋. Your so sweet to dedicate a vlog for your mom. What a great son. Hope she is doing well. Jah looked so cute in the clothes😂😂. Great vlog as always Jordan. You made my Sunday 😉.

I wonder if the bad comments get erased. I never see any here, carpetbagger or adam. I wonder

A little tidbit: its believed that the Elizabeth Short killing was done by a serial killer who killed a woman before or after her ( I can't remember which). The woman who was killed danced at the Hollywood Canteen the night she was killed. I cant remember her name...hollendorf?

Great video, I just wish they wouldn't put political election adds during the video. Whatever their party affiliation I just ignore and skip!

Hollywood Canteen a smorgasbord off stars. U wouldn't c that happen these daes i dare say. Not the degree of stars . U can gve scott a run 4 his money rattling names off Jordan lol.

Amazing, Hollywood celebrities were actually decent human beings back in the day , gotta love this it's a shame modern day actors couldn't mimic decent behavior such as this , so cool ! Modern day hollyweird probably doesn't WANT this memorialized , for various reasons... Jah is so amazing 🤗💕

How was Masa?
