While the ending of a marriage is sad, I’m happy to hear how everything has been going, that all parties are happy and that you’re all making the trek to Florida. Plus I wish you and Dani nothing but happiness. Looking forward to everything coming up on this channel.

I'm 37 and have been watching your videos since the bought & watched days......used to watch every single video daily and always loved all the library building videos. Life happens so over the past few years I haven't stayed up to date much on your channels. Just wanted to say glad to see everything is going well and excited to see you're moving to FL! I got divorced in 2020 from my ex of 12 years (only married for 3) so I totally get what you're going through, but seems to me it's all for the best which is great. Life is short. Nice to see you moving forward in life rather than letting it weigh you down. Will definitely pop by the channel more! Thanks for all the awesome videos, Dave!

I understand the going different directions. Better to part now, and be able to remain friends and be good parents... than waiting till the resentment and dislike does start. Wish you nothing but the best...and all the happiness in the world.

#BiggerAndBetterThings for 2024!!

Dave I have watched CS since 2019. I am a movie collector and a thrifter. When I saw What's with Dave Today I enjoyed that as well. When you came up with the name Retro Rest Stop, I thought the name was very cool and very fitting. I have enjoyed watching the channel evolve and I enjoy watching your journey. I will continue watching and I wish you all of the best luck on the road you have chosen.

In the uk they are called roundabouts and normally have seats on them

Hey Dave that was me about two weeks ago in the blue Audi waving to you on Bridge Street. Good luck to you and your channel and happy 2024. Positive vibes only!❤

Retro rest room is gonna blow up in 2024.

Been to this park a few times with my kids and didnt know the stream originate from a natural spring, wow. I started watching your channel for local attractions and I am gonna miss the new finds once you move to Florida.

Just seen this video. I don't know why i missed it. Just wanted to wish you all the best with your channel and your future. I'm enjoying your content. It feels like I'm getting a tour of the US. It would be nice if you could bring back livestreams on this chance.

Selling my house in N.J. was one of the most draining experiences of my life! I sold my house, bought a house in Bucks County PA, and closed on both houses the same day!!! It was a time in my life Id rather forget. From experience, use a highly recommended realtor and find a good lawyer!! Get a thurough inspection before you list your home and if you're not looking to spend money on any repairs/upgrades, sell as-is. A LOT of people like to visit open houses and have no intention on purchasing. I made sure that anyone who came to see my house was pre-approved for a mortgage. Trust me, this keeps away the time wasters. It's a seller's market now. Most of the time, if you list your home at a lower price, you will create a bidding war. Homes in my neighborhood are selling for hundreds of thousands of dollars more than asking price. Good luck.

I dont understand what happened

Sorry to hear about the divorce hope your future is filled with more happiness

Hey marriage is serious, my wife and me had rough times good times , for over 35 yrs still married We take marriage seriously, I understand stand , people can grow apart but take counseling helps and. Sometimes it’s doesn’t , I am 65 and my wife 67 Hopefully you can get friends with ex. For your son sake , I’ll get you in our prayers

What ever happened with the video library.

I’m glad you’re both moving to Florida and that Shawn will have you both.

Good luck!!

my wife and I also had an amicable divorce. we are still good friends to this day. it's good for you, her and your son. much respect for everything you are going thru.

#BiggerandBetterThings Kinda funny, I've only been listening to this channel for the last two weeks or so and completely missed the whole life update (and completely missed the CinemaSickness channel even though I'm a huge movie collector and thrift when I can). Just wanted to let you know from somehow who has been through two divorces and took 39 years to find the love of my life and to now have a son, I'm super glad you are finding your happiness. It is truly amazing that everyone is going to Florida and I look forward to your future videos. Take care, and wish you nothing but the best.

I remember the burning hot metal slides that would screech the whole way down 9:15 9:20 9:21

I wonder if this park got hit with the tree fungus and disease that has taken out many tress in the US. Basically once it hits the tress have to be cut down our it rots them from the inside making them a danger of falling. Many of the parks around here have been stripped of a lot of tress as well. Sadly a lot of very old oaks and walnut tress that were here before the city was when most of this place was farm land.

As a long time viewer (back when you were in the condo), it became more obvious that you and Brittany were growing apart for a long time. Once you started going to Disney on your own, I knew it was just a matter of time. Glad that you and Brittany are staying friends.

Thanks for the honesty!

Will there be some solo Dani content or Dani and Max only videos going forward as well like the few shorts she did?

i love watching Retro Rest Stop and i look forward to seeing what 2024 has in store, i wish you and your family nothing but the best, Hope you guys all have fun in your new homes in Florida. Hope everything works out for you everyone involved sometimes people just grow apart and want different things without hating the other person , i wish you all a good 2024 and just to being happy and doing what you love and what makes you all happy

40 years is a lot of time and I am sure you have a tons of memories from the area. I lived in CO for 11 years and made some good memories. It brings a lot of happiness to us when we watch our videos from that side. I am sure you will be able to enjoy your videos and the moments you documented on your channels!

Hey man, shit happens. At least you’re lucky enough to be amicable with your ex-wife, and you were at least able to agree not only to coparent your child, but for her to move down to Florida with you so you could both be responsible parents, I commend you for that. I wish you the best of luck and all of yours and Danielle‘s future endeavors.

I definitely feel your regret about not documenting things. There are so many times when I wish I had documented some things back in the late 2000s and early 10s. I wish I documented my anime convention days back in those days or what stores looked like back then. These days, I try to document more things in my life because when I look back at them 10 years later, they will become nostalgic. Anyway, congrats on you and Danielle and happy new year.

Happy New Year Dave! Thanks for such an amazing sharing and your video is an inspiration for anyone looking for a fresh start to any facet of their life!! Best wishes to you and everyone around you!!!

I would have liked to hear more about how you guys grew apart over the years, as I think that's a pretty common dynamic in many marriages that doesn't get touched on very often, but I understand not wanting to dive too deep. In retrospect, would it have been better to gradually morph Cinema Sickness into what Retro Rest Stop is today so you could have retained the most amount of viewers? I do remember the whole Minty Fresh Thrift ordeal...

Glad to hear CS won’t be deleted. Lots of memories watching those videos over the years. Best of luck in this new chapter of your life

Hey David, been watching you for years and watched your daily sickness videos everyday, never ever forget the amount of effort you went to on Cinema Sickness to do that everyday. Your love and passion that went into building your library will not be forgotten. Would like to wish you all the best for the future in florida.

Not much of a mystery, Dave, but it is so kind of you to share the details with us since we are basically following a part of your life. You and Dani have a real dynamic. Dani has helped to elevate the channel with you, and I look forward to seeing more of her. All four of you are enjoyable to watch, and I find myself cracking up all the time. Especially at Disney, I feel like I'm almost there tagging along. 😂 Great Channel!

Did you get Chris and his Muppet collection in the divorce? Dave, these things happen and you are on the right track. I hope it’s a smooth transition for your son and I hope we get to see Britany every once in a while, even if it’s a “hey y’all”. Hey! You can mix the channel names, “Cinema Rest Stop” or “Retro Sickness”..... no? Oh! Are those apartments or dorms across the street from your home?

I watched Cinemasickness for years but i lost track of it but i´m glad to rediscover it in even a better show.Lots of respect for the big move.Have a collection of +6000 myself and i hope it will never have to.

This is all happy news. Thanks for sharing. So happy to hear everyone is going to Florida. Love everything about this channel. Just told my husband last night how much I have enjoyed watching it go from thrifting to movies to Disney. We had our first Disney trip in 2019. And love watching videos and picturing myself back there 😂

Don't feel too bad about the divorce Dave. I'm in the same boat as you and split up with my ex fiance in 2013. We were together for 5 years and I have a 12 year old daughter with her so in that respect, i know what youre going thru. When the writing is on the wall, you have to do what is best and at least you and Brittany parted on good terms. Me and my ex grew apart too.

New year new life dave. Hope you and dani are happy together. Enjoy the Florida weather. Love your videos. Hopefully you will be at 10k soon.

Wishing you all the best. You seem happy and that is what matters. This channel is great. Love your content.

Wishing you all the best!!

my parents are divorced too, i was probably about 4 years old at the time & my sister was just a little over 1 year old. her & i both turned out great & my parents & their partners are great too they all get along. my stepmom has 2 kids from her previous marriage & her & my dad have my almost 15 year old younger half sister. & now her son & his girlfriend are having a baby boy & me & my sisters are going to be aunties💙

All the best to you Dave and everyone else involved of course. Happiness is the key.

I had been away from KZfaq, due to sickness and other things in life for several months, and the first video that I saw back of yours was that video where you kind of hinted at things that you mentioned, and even then it was pretty obvious what happened so I will say that as a fan of yours I’m just grateful that you are happy, I’m grateful that Shawn will stay happy, Dani is happy, and Britney is happy! I started as a viewer of cinema sickness, but I really enjoy this change that you have made, and was happy to be a supporter with membership, and I hope to be able return to that at some point! The only thing that I will miss from Philadelphia the most is your visits to video game movie Dome. 😂 #BiggerAndBetterThings

Best of luck to you in your new ventures!

I hope Sean understands. I hope he can balance both of you.

Do the thing. It doesn't matter what it is you want to try doing. The first one you do will probably suck but that's okay. You just have to keep doing it and eventually you'll get better

Keep On Rockin' In The Disc Wars. Whatever that means. Just follow your dreams and stay true to yourself. You'll be fine.

I Hope Someday I Move Down To Florida And Get A Job In Florida Where I Live It Sucks Finding A Job Where I Live In Mifflin County.

Best of luck to u and hope your life gets better.

While divorce is sad, I'm glad it was amicable and you have both been able to move on while successfully co-parenting. Here's to a new chapter for you in 2024. Will be interested to see the new movie room setup!

Good luck and congratulations to you and Danielle you guy's are a good couple love your videos PS looking forward to watching more of your videos and hoping you can check more dead malls out in Florida I been on a dead mall kick lately

Who gets Chris in the divorce?(seriously though, good video man.)

Many Blessings to you and to all those involved in your life! #biggerandbetterthings!!🙏🙏👍😁 Love you all!!😍🥰

Good luck king stay cozy out there

Hi dave divorce is hard. But it takes a mental state on your life if you're not in a good spot. So it was probably the best thing for everyone. I wish you the best luck in your new adventures. But whats going to happen to the crew you had

You'll find a reason to revive CS. It will come to you in due time.

#biggerandbetterthings

At least your divorce is going a lot better than korben dallas' divorce. *New year. New Dave. New adventures.*

Wishing you and all your family the best today and always

Awwwwe time to make new friends in Florida

I hope you (and everyone involved) is happy in 2024 and beyond. I've watched CinemaSickness for many years and followed you over to this channel. I discovered you because of the Dollar Tree videos many years back and watched faithfully since then, I really look forward to your Florida move and what the brings for this channel. #BiggerandBetterThings

Love your videos Dave thanks for sharing been watching for atleast 6 years.when you thrifted after your regular job can’t wait to see loads of amayzing places in Florida. And the Florida thrifts

You gotta do what you gotta do man! Glad everything is ok :) I’ll also be moving down to Florida this month actually

Happy for you Dave I’m glad you are able to be happy

Thanks for the explanation video, all the best to you, Danielle, Shawn and Brittany.

Im in Delco and ive visited quite a few of the places you've posted about . Hope to run into you somewhere before you move

Thanks for being honest with us dave and good luck with the in the future. I'm glad Brittany is moving down there to so Shawn wouldn't have to travel far to see both parents. I actually broke my arm on one of those merry go rounds has a kid 😂 .

I remember when you became mintyfresh, i still call you that in my head. This channel is really good, also hope all goes amazing for you, love your content.

I am going to miss your buddies and Pamela and yes June from Jake’s? But I’m sure you’ll stay in touch? You’re one of the most real people on KZfaq!

Congratulations to you and Danni ❤, love watching your videos here in the chilly uk

Interesting

Sorry to hear I've been through it too but know you will get through it

I didn't wanna say anything to respect your privacy but since this video came out, I can finally say... I knew it from the very beginning!! #BiggerAndBetterThings Okay in all seriousness, you do what makes you happy! Also sorry you have to sell your childhood home! I know that stings a lot. I've been there before, but rather selling sentiment toys and movies I grew up with cuz I wanted to be more "mature". And then the pandemic happened which made me miss everything I sold. I regret that a lot. Oh well, at least I'm trying to rebuy everything I sold on eBay which has been going good so far! Anyways, here's hoping 2024 will be your year!

KZfaq is a very interesting thing. Everyday people become famous in a small part of the world. However with all the good things that come with it also comes the bad. Your life becoming seen by the world & having people wanting to know things that really are your private business. However having a camera focused on you makes people want to know things right or wrong. If you have never seen An American Family I would urge you to watch it. The first reailty series & in hindsight almost a guidebook for youtubers & any people making thier lives public to see both sides of what happens when the camera is on you. All my best to all of you. #biggerandbetterthings

#BiggerAndBetterThings. Hopefully a prosperous 2024 For you, Danielle and Shawn. 👍

I stand by my comment other day you seem to have come out of your shell/and you seem a lot happy All bast for future and I look forward to following you on your journey and adventure

Do you plan to ever bring back the livestreams?

Dave of Retro Rest Stop once you get settled in Florida you should do a video eating at a Whataburger for the first time there is one in St Augustine Florida which is only 1 hr and 46 mins from Orlando Florida where your going to live... It will mean so much to me if you would do that video for me... Have a great and safe 2024 and beyond... #biggerandbetterthings

Good on you for clearing the air dave wishing you and dani a fresh and happy move to Florida..

#BiggerAndBetterThings

Dave, I think it's great you and your ex-wife are still friends, it's so important to be on the same page while raising your son! I wish all of you the best in each of your future endeavors.

#biggerandbetterthings ❤❤

Thank you for letting us know and wish you the best in Florida! Only thing I’m confused is what is the difference between CinemaSickness and Retro Rest Stop I thought they were both thrifting media channels

Personally I would’ve rented the house out to have an income. Leave it to a rental company and split the income with Britney. Just to keep it in the family if it’s that sentimental.

Good luck to you

You gotta do what’s the best for you and like I said as long as you and Shawn are okay? That’s all that matters! You and Danielle seem like a nice fit! So congratulations to you and Danielle (and I’m sure Shawn of course will be in the picture). And to hear Shawn’s mom is moving to Florida is nice bonus too! The fact that you’re taking time to explain all this is awesome so good luck in 2024!

Best wishes to all

All the happiness to everyone involved.

Can we get a little tease of the new house when you do your next dvd moving video?

#biggerandbetterthings any chance youll bring back Weekly or monthly live streams.... I miss those....much love from Larry and Melissa in Michigan ❤❤❤

Best wishes from 🇸🇪

I was going to draw a family portrait as a gift for you, but a few months ago, I thought something was up. I'm glad I didn't start that lol. Best wishes for you in 2024.

Okay I'll admit I've only been a subscriber for maybe about a couple three or four months. So when I saw the title of this video I clutch my heart, because this whole time I thought Danielle was your wife. You two just gave off that vibe that made me think y'all were married. So I scared myself lol sorry love the content

Whats gonna happen with you and Chris?

When I started getting the idea of what was happening I wondered - how will they handle DVC?

Sorry to hear that Dave but it looks like everything is coming together for the 4 of you and obviously you are happy with Danielle. Best wishes for all of you in the next step of your lives. I look forward to your continuing videos.

#BiggerAndBetterThings I said this before in the last life update video, but I'm glad you're doing well Dave, and I'm very glad that Shawn, Brittney, Dani, and Max, and everyone else who is involved, are all doing well through all of this. I wish all of you the best of luck in 2024! And I look forward to coming along with you and Dani and the rest of the family on many exciting new adventures! Keep up the great work! PS: I do remember when you did the "C.S. Quest" channel for a short amount of time. I am glad that it has been brought back, obviously in a much bigger and better way. I also remember when "CinemaSickness" was briefly changed to "Minty Fresh Thrift" for about 2 whole days, before it had to be changed back. And I also remember when you briefly had that "60 Second Infection" Movie Review channel for about a week or two. Man, those were very interesting, but also very fun times indeed! LOL.

Good luck man!

Thank you for doing this Dave. You have put a lot of questions to bed. Sad that you are ending the channel but it is on to #BiggerAndBetterThings

1 - the video that KZfaq commenters were waiting for lmao, and 2 - if you're trading in the Soul, you need to get another Scion xB like old times!
