ASMR Morning Drive to Ocean City, New Jersey (from Commodore Barry Bridge)
You and I go on a relaxing morning drive in mid-Spring to one of the popular US vacation destinations on the East Coast at Ocean City, New Jersey, a month before the Summer season officially starts, starting at the Commodore Barry Bridge on the Pennsylvania side and driving the "backroads" route until we reach our journey's end.

Again. 😅
I could notice
Me as soon as I checked your channel: HE CHANGED IT AGAIN!!! 👀😱
The plot thickens!
I really love your old video on reviewing the Ocean City candy! Get the best vibes from both of these now! Love from Russia!
Yeah I remember that too! What a coincidence. Was one of my most watched videos from him years ago.
wow i had forgotten thanks for the reminder that was a fav
Приятно видеть земляка)
Love that video sm
Yessss
please do more of these I'm from the UK and love to see what other places look like it's like being on a summer road trip!
people like yourself are one reason i'm doing these!
So am i!
I know! Everything seems so large and spacious. It’s so strange. Imagine how long it would take just to walk down a street.
Im glad you talked during this trip, it made it even better.
sometimes i will, sometimes i won't
I used to go to Ocean City every summer. We'd all load into the family van- all 3 generations of the family- and drive from my grandparents' in Havertown, PA to the boardwalk. Those are such great memories. We'd always stop at the last Wawa before the shore, and also grab the Shriver's salt water taffy which I'd take back home to share with friends ☺☺ I live in France now and can't afford to visit, so I miss it dearly. Thank you so much for uploading this and bringing back those childhood memories. Might sound ridiculous over such a simple video, but it brought a tear to my eye.
I like the new content. Way to keep it fresh.
yeah it's not even about TRYING to do anything (appreciate the sentiment) but just going with what feels right/natural and this is where we're at. I'm not into chasing views, being popular, all that juvenile nonsense.
Thanks ER! This is so relaxing to be on a drive without the discomfort of the ride. This is the outdoor ASMR that's so good. Excited for your adventures and the sounds you'll bring back! 👊👊
you honestly look and sound super happy in these new nature type videos. i’m glad you are doing what you love and always making relaxing and reliable content.
I mean I’ve been happy making the previous content it’s just this is something kinda new and challenging , so… :)
I used to never be able to fall asleep with headphones or ASMR because was too insane and was going to bed at 4 AM almost every night. Since i started watching ephemeral rift in 6 days i can now sleep with these videos playing because they're just right and i now sleep at 11 -12am
okay this is the type of asmr side quest i can get behind
I love these nature/outdoors videos as long as we still get to hear your whispering & talking (or flute playing!) as that is your own special ingredient that no one else can emulate in their videos.
Talking yes, not so much whispering right now mostly because how quiet it is compared to the environment. If I ever get back to the indoor content it’s possible I get back to whispering.
Ocean city is only 20 minutes away from me. I love it so much there as I have many fond memories of the boardwalk and candy kitchen. You can never go wrong with a visit to Ocean city!
I am lucky enough to live right near where you get on Route 49. We take the last part of this ride to Ocean City all the time, weekly during the summer. Your video made me appreciate just how lucky I am :)
That's amazing; love the look of the neighborhoods, the stillness, quietness... so good. Wish you could walk around there at night, I'll never get to go anywhere like that. Stay safe Paul🌹
i plan on doing a night walk somewhere around a town that's quiet. can't do that at a vacation town since people out and about at night. but somewhere, yes...
Bro has been on so many side quests recently
Love these videos. As I may never see these places for myself, I'm glad that I can experience them from your perspective.
Yeah that’s one reason why I’m doing these. Wish I could travel the world but that’s not happening lol
Love the channel and love that you make the content that makes you happy. I've really been missing your outside the box storytelling though. The nature videos are a nice change of pace, but it feels like anyone could do them. Your channel booms because you come up with ideas that only you could find. Hope to see a return soon, but thankful that there are 10+ years of archives to enjoy.
Ah, but no one can make the nature videos I make because they're not me! ;) As for other content, we'll see what happens when it happens!
Very true! Your perspective on life is fascinating. You've played a huge positive role in my life without ever meeting me. I'll always be a fan and grateful for your art. I'm sure doing Arkham Verse stuff for 10+ years gets fatiguing, as much fun as it can be.
Awe man I take that bridge everyday for work. So crazy seeing all this here. Love the videos Uncle E
You're a cool dude, Paul. Excited to see what you have in store for us.
I’ve been a long time viewer, and listen nightly. This has been one of my favorites you’ve ever done. Just casual easy conversation. I find that whispering is too dull, and soft-speaking has a much better texture, if that makes any sense. Anyway, thank you, and good now!
yeah i hear ya. i'm still trying to find the happy medium with making the outdoor content since i have to make sure to speak above the sounds around me
I remember ocean city. You made some pretty good videos way back about going on the boardwalk and buying all the different types of candy
boardwalk video is next!
oh man this is great. thanks for always thinking outside of the box
(i'm not TRYING to think outside the box. just going with what feels right) ;)
Totally loving these as a new / added format, thank you 🙏
Same!
og Uncle's back!
My family owns a Beach House on Brighton Place! Awesome to see in a video
Ocean City is my childhood vacation spot. Grew up going there with my parents and my Mom Mom and Pop Pop.
Glorious! Nice view friend
Good now Paul, I hope you yourself are having a splentastic day. Thank you for another Amazing video, i always look foward to your uploads truly a godsend for whenever im feeling anything other than relaxed.
thank you for sharing all of this with us uncle e
These new asmrs are really amazing, i hope you continue making them!
that's the plan! for now at least
Nice man! Drove right by my house on the Nj side of Commodore Barry. Ocean city is a great shore town.
Omg!!! I live right there! It’s awesome seeing everything and being like. I know where that is!
Man, this really makes me wish my car was more quiet. Very relaxing video, Paul. Thank you.
I'm loving these drives🥰, feeling like a passenger and getting a little bit nostalgic as I no longer live in the US and memories are popping up... Love when someone else is driving so I get to look at the scenery...also never been to Ocean City, NJ..yeeeey!!! 😎 Thank you Rift, drive safe!! 😘👋
I love the new Type of Content been following you since years and its Great to See you in another Setting , much love 🫶🫶🫶
I love this. Philly is my hometown
Another Banger from Uncle E
strangely these drive videos remind me of the times when I would relax in the back while my family would take long trips to visit family in Las Vegas back when I was a kid. good times good times
Make the same trip every summer on the way to Sea Isle. Great video riff, enjoy the shore!
I love your new driving video series! I’ve tried to watch so many driving ASMR videos on YT to relax to, but they’re usually just loops or no atmosphere of actually riding in the vehicle. You have absolutely nailed it with yours, really immersive as well as relaxing. 😃
Glad to hear you enjoyed
The Sopranos ASMR
Reminds me of a holiday I had in the states with my folks about 10 years ago. We drove across some states and it was fantastic, hoping to go back some day
it's like traveling with a friend, great content Mr. Rift!
I love how on 18:34 you call the vineyards, “wine fields”. You crack me up Paul! 🍇🍷
vineyard! that's it! lol
@@EphemeralRift Yeah Paul the vineyards! I love your laugh too then I laugh with you!
Your "normal" voice is wonderful to hear. You're a cool guy & a nice friend to have ❤️
uncle E i loved your vlog video, it was cool to see your office and daily life, will the 'Man" series ever be back or you ended them for good?
it's a corner of the basement with a desk and was this way before we moved in. i haven't officially ended anything. :)
I want to meet up with you someday so badly. Been watching for 10 years now. You drove by my house in this video! Im 15 mins out of Philly. Hope we get a chance to grab a meal sometime. Much love Uncle E
I was JUST thinking about how I don’t actually know what your normal voice sounds like!! Hell yeah!!!
Union Soccer stadium parking lot. Nice place to tailgate and enjoy a few beers
Love this! ❤
As someone that has lived in Jersey my whole life, I've never been near or to Ocean City so this was pretty neat to see
I went to college right near to where you started the video...its a trip to see you there! also liking the new style videos :)
We drive up to ocean city most years to stay a week or so in the summer with family- always a fun drive, reminds me of that!! Time to see if anything looks familiar. Love the parts where we're in/near the pine barrens, even if they're spooky to drive through at night and the music cuts out
I have to check out the pine barrens never been
Hope you’re doing well Rift! Been watching your videos since I was a kid back in 2015.
1:03:46 I used to deliver provisions there! So cool seeing Uncle E pass places I know!
no matter what content you make uncle paul, you’ll always have a community here that loves your content. loving the diversity!! ❤
i live a like 35-45 minutes from ocean city so this was very cool to see!! :)
Like the vibe of those Videos where you Talk with your normal Voice big greetings from Germany
I just did 7 Bridges. Fun ride
I worked on Asbury Ave at a Furniture store in 2015😊
I’ve been loving these nature vlogs, I’m dropping a like on all of them 👍🏼
What a hero
YOOOOOOOOOOO I LIVE RIGHT THERE BY THE BRIGE BRUH I SHOULD HAVE BEEN THERE
I used to live near that intersection of 322 and 55. Still visit family there and go to ocean city that way!
I've got family friends in Dennisville and I quickly recognized the word "Tuckahoe".
This was a very nice video to start my afternoon with ❤
Read the title and saw “ocean city” and my internal dialogue went “ fuck yeah rift went down the ocean”. I’ve got that Baltimore brainrot
been waiting for this since the salt water taffy video years back, nice.
i'm surprised it took me this long to do lol
You’ve had some good pfps but nothing beats the electrical outlet
Nice! Get some fishing in!
if i knew how to skin a fish and all that, i would. but i'm not into catch and release (poor fish)
Ooo Outside content perfect
love these types of videos and seeing my home state represented. so relaxing. I live in Philly now and would love if you could do one at washington crossing historic park- maybe bowman’s tower.
i think that's the first i'm hearing of the place. I'll add it to my list!
I know this drive all too well! I lived in tuckahoe and the traffic there even gets crazy during the summer. Still in south jersey; just thankfully not on any of the shoobie routes now.
OCNJ is the best. So sad you were there before we go every year in the summer. Would have been so cool to see ER
I like to imagine that i was kindnaped but he allowed me to look at the window and narrating everything just to make me not freak out till we reach our destination.
i think we might be slowly moving towards blending the fictional stuff with the outdoors. We'll see what happens. Ideas are percolating.
at 1:22:41 it brought back so many memories seeing those courts. I used to go to summer camps there!
Hi paul i love ur vids and i live in delco i go to ocnj all the time thank you for the vid
I never have been to United states and it's interesting to see how its looking like driving. Of course Europe is also like this but not exactly. Us feels more open...more car focused, but in a good way. I like cars.
As a resident of South Jersey, Welcome!
Would've loved to see this video from the drivers perspective
there’s always next time.. or the time after that ;)
45:02 - 47:34 mins is my daily drive. This is coooky
No need to apologise. Great video. Thank you.
Good splentastic well hope you are now good in the planet of Reath or earth or something all the best Margaret!
I forget how close you are to my area. I LIVE at the Longport dog beach in the summer 😂
Let's gooo 🤠
like birds during the winter, philadelphians migrate directly to new jersey beaches every summer
Great Video
Ah the DayZ reference. Spend time on that game still. Great video ER.
Haha yea I was heavy into it end of 2023
Really enjoying the outside videos, keep them coming. You could try using multiple cameras to show multiple perspectives
yeah it's something i've been thinking about.
Woke up this morning...
i recognize that bridge into OC any day. i miss it man
Tackahoe road mentioned letsss goooooo
Lol, for a second I though you were doing a collab. Didn't notice you changed the channel pic again. I totally thought you teamed up with another channel an they had you as the thumbnail.
lol
LOVE this video but shhhh, we dont want people to know how beautiful and diverse South Jersey is ;)
Ephemeral Rift in delaware county!
man i wish i was thare with you rideing
This thumbnail is epic
It’s crazy I’m from PA but I have a beach house down in ocean city we go to every summer so seeing uncle E driving around that neck of the woods is sort of surreal idk
Lived in ocean city whole life it’s wild to see my house in his video
U should just drive across the entire USA for a video and film nature asmr in the best spots of each state your in
a cross country drive is def on my list. whether it happens.... we'll see ... ;)
This guy changes his pfp more than i change my personality
