I love how friendly Americans are. So willing to chat to you randomly queueing for coffee or wandering around a walmart or sitting at a bar. When we were in South Carolina back when our daughter was 18 months old, the amount of older women who stopped us to tell us how beautiful her eyes were was lovely! And how you are allowed to be confident and have dreams without being made fun of 😂

I like this Bridget. If 'Bonanza' ever gets rebooted (never mind Yellowstone) she could do great work as a hardscrabble farmer's widow-turned-steer tycoon.

As for what's uniquely American to love, hmmm. Our sense of humor is out there. And--so far--we can let it all hang out with no police raids to show for it. Unless you're Tim Pool, in which case you may get swatted for your beanie-weenie cap.

I love our natural resources--why I worked for 32 years for a land management agency. The natural diversity is one of the reasons why America is great. Your opening dialogue was great. Made me think of my father who also was in WWII-US Navy Radioman and served with the marines on the invasion of the Marshall Islands. Some great stories from him. I also love that we can watch/listen to shows like yours.

what I love about America is the diversity and by that I mean the nature. Beaches, mountains, woods, lakes, rivers, prairies and desert.

Watched the show on YouTube and would have "liked" it 80 times if I could.
