*The video opens up with Drew introducing himself and telling the viewers where he will be going to today. Sometimes he will provide context to where he is going or explain his reasons for going there. In some rare instances, he will bring along one of or more of his fellow Barney Bunch members.

*If Drew is going to a fictional location (like one from a TV show or video game), he will just jump into the television screen and end up there. If he is traveling back in time, he will either go to a time machine store to get a time machine as seen in older videos, or he will use his one of a kind time machine dialdoh line in more recent videos.

*When Drew arrives at the place, he will be caught up in a really really long line. Originally the lines consisted of racial stereotypes, though later Goes To videos appear to have toned them down to fairly generic ones.

*Drew finally says that the whole thing will be very swell, with various gross and swell words accompanying it until declaring that he is going to do all of it right now. He then says goodbye to the viewers and the video ends.

Very rarely has this format changed in the years since the first Goes To video was made. However, sometimes the format is changed, such as one of the patrons engaging in the same acts as Drew, or that the manager is a woman, but it isn't as frequent as one would expect. The only exceptions to this would have to be Drew Pickles Goes To Hell by BakaSurvivor2102 and the videos by Thirteeniverse, which are some of the very few Goes To videos not done in the traditional format.

According to community member Blood, the first Drew Pickles Goes To video was created on YouTube by PieMaster64 around 2007, but unfortunately the video is now considered lost. 2008 and 2009 would see a massive spike in Goes To Videos, with users like HappyTheHomo45, Latinoballa23, YTComedyChannel365, bonerificisswell, ToiletPranker, OptionalLoser, and BarneyBunchCompany (originally named SRRRSIsGay) having pioneered the genre.

Towards the end of 2009 and well into 2010, two members of the community, MrCaptainJeff and DrewPicklesAintDed69, were some of, if not the most prolific, creators of Goes To videos, with their content being held in high regard to this very day. Both their channels would end up being suspended numerous times in the early 2010s until they were permanently terminated off YouTube, leading to countless tribute videos and all but a handful of their original videos becoming lost. Later members like DJSwell69 and ShelltoonTV1 continued the tradition by making them even longer, wittier, and more complex, even going more over the top than usual. It got to a point where other characters, like Yogi Bear, Betty DeVille, Stu Pickles, and even Drew Pickles Jr. began starring in their own brand of Goes To videos, with a similar setup.

However, by the mid to late 2010s, towards the start of the first Renaissance era, the videos were not held in the same high regard by the more high-ranking members of the community. Blood and Life or Death have been very vocal with their criticisms of the videos, stating that they were completely different originally, with the homosexual shenanigans took center stage, but were gradually becoming more racist and lacked many of the swell shenanigans. The sharper writing of later entries also proved a challenge to less-experienced content creators, who would turn out low effort videos. The format was also becoming more repetitive, with the only thing Drew doing was just raping men and eating poopycum and not going to the extremes as in prior videos. Even founding community members on YouTube such as BooNube shared a disdain for the Goes To videos as far back as 2011. This, combined with the rise of the Blood-style videos, lead to many veteran members ditching the Goes To style of videos in favor of the Blood-style, and many of them disregarding the Goes To videos as a past phase.

Despite the Blood-style videos being the preferred way of making Speakonia content to some members of the community, by the tail-end of the Second Renaissance, the style began to wane, and the Goes To videos suddenly saw a small resurgence among the community once again. Users such as Defpickles98 and IronYoshi1212 Productions continue to create Goes To videos to this very day. IronYoshi in particular has changed the format a little, replacing the racial stereotypes with more generic ones fitting for the location, and even veterans of the genre have slowly started to come back to making them again such as DrewPicklesTheDark, Satinsguard, and even HappyTheHomo45. Thirteeniverse would take the Goes To formula to its next level, combing the fast pace editing style of SwellFusion and the Foot Fetish Community with the more story-driven elements of IronYoshi and taking the style in a new and fresh direction.
