MARQUETTE — British social media personalities Josh Caldwell-Clark and Jason Riley, known online as Josh and Jase, made a stop in Marquette last week on their tour through Michigan.

Their Facebook page describes them as “two Brits experiencing America one state at a time,” and they have been doing just that. Michigan is only the latest stop on a journey which has taken them to Louisiana, Texas, West Virginia and more. Their content is focused largely on poking fun at the differences between American and British culture.

While in Marquette they posted several videos of themselves exploring the city, including one at Marquette Harbor Lighthouse where Jase can be heard saying “It’s like the real life North Pole!”

The pair were a big hit at Friday’s hockey game between Northern Michigan and Michigan Tech. They were featured on the Jumbotron at NMU’s ice arena and even rode the Zamboni between the first two periods.

Other stops included the Delft Bistro and Walmart. Josh and Jase post video content to several different social media platforms, including Youtube, Facebook, Instagram and Tiktok.

They have millions of followers across their accounts, and get hundreds of thousands of views on each video. While in Marquette, they met and interacted with many of their fans.
