So, if you want to give podcasting a go, download the free anchor app or go to anchor. Or go to anchor.com to get started. Anyway, back to the episode. Welcome back to this episode of Trash Taste. I'm Connor.

And of course, I'm normally with the boys, Garne and Joey. And today, special guest, Michael. Oh. We're barely here. You look like a lost child right now. I am, I am, I am. Well, you know, I'm sure many of you know who Michael is, but you know, you have to do the generic.

Oh, you are, yeah. Introduce yourself for people who don't know. So maybe people who don't know who you are. Robotics on YouTube. Yeah. That's really, is that how you describe what you do? That's what I tell people, yeah. Okay, yeah.

I don't know, it's hard to say what it is really. So it's like, I usually just say robotics, yeah. Okay. Yeah. Like a crack, crackhead engineer. Yeah, he's a yeah, similar. Cracket engineer. The energy you give off in your videos

is that of, you know. Yeah, like if Mark Rober went down the wrong path. Yeah. Is that how you tell people? I like that. That's awesome. So do you tell people your engineers or just work in robotics?

I just say I work in robotics. Okay. Sometimes I'll just say software developer. Like, what do you say? You know, like when you get in Uber, you don't explain your whole life, right? Because like in Japan, Uber drivers rarely talk to you.

Oh really? Yeah. Oh yeah, that's true. No, they do. No, they do. They do, but like, it's like... We have our own version of Uber though. Yeah, yeah, we do, we do.

But yeah, no, they never talk. They're just like, are you having a nice day? And you're like, yep, and they're like, okay. That's good. That's the two-star, immediate five-star when I... Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's to me, I'm like... No talking.

Because like I'd see the memes about, oh, like, the Uber drivers that would, like, not talk to you and you give them five stars. And like, in most of the movie, I go to, taxi drivers don't really talk to you. At least in the UK, like if you take a black cab, they're more likely to talk to you, but if you take an Uber, nobody fucking talks to you.

I haven't had a single Uber since I got to LA that has talked to me. That's crazy. Sometimes they do. Really? Yeah, because that's what I hear, it's like the stereotype, right? Is that like they love like starting conversation, getting to know you on the ride.

Yeah. But like, if I don't know, maybe I just give off the aura of like, don't fucking talk to me. But the moment I get in, they're just like, Joey, all right. And then they just don't converse. It is weird how that. like the sat nav,

they always keeps going to like, drop Connor off into, and I'm like, well, it's weird, it's saying, it's insane. We're gonna die.

Yeah, I think on the app, sometimes next to like the driver's profile, it'll be like, excellent conversationalist. And every time I say that, I'm like, fuck,

they're gonna talk to you. I ain't gonna be able to say shit. Oh, because everyone's rated you. You're a good tool. Yeah. Yeah, there's like, it actually has like a little pin.

Like speech 100. You know what's cool? I had this one guy who was a, took us to LAX and he is a real estate agent. He picked us up in a fucking like Tesla fully tricked out. He came up to us and he's like, yeah, I do this just to get clients. Cause he'll only patrol rich ass places.

Right. And he'll like just get clients and be like, yep, I am a real estate agent. That's so five-hand. Yeah, it was genius. Yeah, it's so genius. What the fuck, man. That guy was awesome. Yeah, I gotta give you props by the way

because me and Connor are both technically engineers, but you've somehow found a way to be a I'm not an engineer, but still make use of your engineering degree, right? We both have engineering degrees. Yeah. Yeah. That's where we're like opposites. I don't have an engineering degree.

Well, are you, why you don't? No, no, I don't. Are you serious? Yeah. You went to university though, right? No, I went to one year of university and then dropped out. Oh, right. It was, yeah.

Well, I've always said this, but doing an engineering course makes you realize that you don't want to be an engineer. Yeah. Because it's just bored. It sucks. Especially at like university type thing. Yeah. Everyone thinks, oh, you're gonna be in the lab all the time, doing stuff.

I was in front of a PC, doing math lab and simulations for just hours on end. Oh, don't remind me of Matt Lab, man. You know they still use it? I hate Mat Lab. Oh my God. I don't know why they teach it to, anyone, because it's never useful.

What is Matt Lab? It's like a, it's, how come I, how come I, it's like an engineering software that specializes in like, maths and equations. Right. Programming language pretending to be like a really actually useful programming.

Yeah, no one uses it for anything. Yeah, but the problem is like, like, like usually you should be taught stuff that you will use outside, but it's not useful outside of the degree. So you think that in the degree, oh, it will help me learn faster. No, it makes you learn slower and shittier.

It's like it has zero good. Why do they've always used it? Why do schools do a lot of the things? That's true. So like, I guess like that's really interesting. So you don't have your engineering degree. So did you make your content to make engineering fun? Because I feel like you are one of the first,

it's like, you know, to us, engineering was always boring, but watching your videos, you've somehow made the process of engineering look fucking fun. Well, it was like really boring. Like I did have like a real job in it in doing software development for like these,

the state of Hawaii. And that was very boring. And I learned it in like a very fun way and then that made up boring. So I wanted to do like fun projects to like make it better. So I actually had like a bunch of shit that I made before doing YouTube.

And I made something and I was like, oh this would be funny to put on YouTube. And that's how that happened. Yeah. So it was kind of like, to make it more fun for myself. Because that passion was fucking dying quickly at the job. Oh no, yeah, instantly.

Man, if you've probably finished the degree, you probably wouldn't be doing this right now. No more, it's not a whole fucking no man. It just felt like it was never applicable to anything. Like they were making us apply for jobs. And I was applying for this job and they were, in the interviews they were asking me questions. And I was just like, am I supposed to know this shit?

Like what? I mean, so obviously they would ask you to explain like engineering concepts and stuff And other times I'd ask you to explain something, and you're like, I don't even like, what that is. What's what you just say to me? And then I look like a fucking clown.

Yeah, I'm out of my fair share of clown interview. You drive like two hours, you wait, you wear a suit that you don't really know what the fuck you're doing with, and then you get there and just some old man grills you and you feel like a-humiliated, yeah. Yeah, what are your parts of engine mechanical both? I did mechanical, he did electrical.

Electronic and electrical engineering. Yeah. I mean, like, I get the interview thing. I drew a dick in one of my interviews. because I applied for a missile. Dick missile. I applied for a missile company. And I ended up, like, unknowingly drawing a dick.

And I didn't realize until the end of the interview, of course I didn't get it. And then Elon Musk stole your design. So, I guess, like, did you quit your engineering degree for YouTube? I mean, after, oh, no. I didn't even get far into the engineering degree. Like, it was just one year. It was like a Python introductory course.

Right. And so I like was, I went to college for engineering, but I had to pay for it, like with my job that was already doing engineering. Yeah. And it was like, that doesn't make any sense. Yeah. I'm learning to pay to learn so I can work in it. And it's like, I already got the job. Yeah.

And the class like was, you know, it was like an intro thing. It wouldn't let you do any kind of like testing out of it or anything. Right. So it was like, this is a variable. That's good. Yeah. So it just sucked. It also sucked having to do like a bunch of classes

that had nothing to do with it. That is engineering. So yeah, I feel like they have to fluff it out. They're like, yeah, you need to learn how, you know, the project, the like line will work. And it's like, well, I mean, I mean, I guess. Yeah, even before that, like having to take like an English, basic English class.

They did that? Yeah, yeah, yeah, because it's like a, it was, oh yeah, right? Yeah, right, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. In the UK, it's all done in three years. Yeah. Oh.

Yeah, so it's all pretty like, like pretty, like, like, full-on. Here it's like turbo fluff. If you're not going to an engineering specific school. Right. So like a general education school that I went to, the worst school ever, Northern Arizona University. Fuck you, Northern Arizona University.

I pissed on that sign when I went back through there. My dog. Yeah, it was, so you, I was in like a, like, ancient Chinese history. And I was like, this doesn't make sense. Wait, wait, wait, right. In an engineering degree? In an engineering degree, they make you take liberal studies as well. What?

Why? You know you're paying to do engineering? Yeah, yeah, because like you need those to get into the higher level engineering degrees. Like the classes, it's fucking stupid. It's crazy. Yeah, it's actually insane. What does anyone study in America?

They can go to good schools and stuff. I went to like a pretty, the reason I went to this one was because they had like a 90% acceptance rate. And I had some bad grades in high school. Right, fair enough. Yeah. But I mean, you know, the whole grades,

equal intelligence thing is all kind of weird anyway and kind of arbitrary, but there's, you know, who's going to make a better system. Yeah. So you mostly, mostly like self-taught now with some. Yeah, mostly for like, for soft. Yeah, for all. Yeah. Well, you heard of engineers, you don't need an engineering degree anymore to do engineering, right? You got Google and YouTube. Yeah. Honestly, that's like Google and YouTube tutorials just like that, that taught me more in my engineering degree than my fucking lecture is this. Yeah. I'm not going to fucking lie. It said, it's that one, like the Indian people on like Khan Academy.

Dude, if they don't have an accent, you're not learning good. For real. It's a bad tutorial. It's true. Those motherfuckers will put up like five hour tutorials too. And for free.

And it's like, holy shit. And it's all like, consensual. Yeah. It's always good. There's no fluff, no bullshit. They get right to the point. I don't know how they learn to teach so well. Yeah.

But they do. They do. They do amazing. I just think that like the universities that like, hey, you need to fill this many hours. So just make shit out. Just like pretend. Just start dragging stuff out.

I had one guy and he, I think this guy, because obviously the teachers, they also get graded on how good they're teaching, right? Yeah. So it was a notoriously hard module. It was just dynamics, which is just like anything, I guess. And a lot of people failed the year before, so they brought on a new teacher.

And this guy clearly just did not give a fuck. He was just there for the paycheck. Because at the end of the course, he's like, come to my revision lessons, you better come to it. You're not gonna wanna miss it. And so we were like, all right, Like you, come to revisions.

Yeah, he was like, all right, okay, cool. So we go up and he literally just goes through the exam that's coming up in a week, but just with different questions, just different numbers. Right, right. It just goes through it in order. Yeah, oh my God. And so the first time that happened,

you know, maybe some people turned up, the second time he did it, everyone showed up. Yeah, because they knew it was happening. It's literally just a cheat sheet. Yeah, it was fucked. That's great. It was fucked. It's good for me, but you get some professors

that are like, because like, that are obviously there for like the research, of the university, they're working on different projects because they cannot lecture for shit. It's kind of like, they only do it because it's like a contractual obligation. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm researching some cool projects,

but you've also got to lecture some students. And you can always tell because they like speak from like a different fucking dimension, you know, they, they talk to you like, you're already like a professor grade level, like level of knowledge. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So it's like a really like, like you're not conversing with a human.

No, no, no, right. So it's like really hard to find good professors because like this, It's hard to get one that does both. Yeah. Who, like, knows what they're talking about and is a good teacher. Yeah, because, like,

some of the smartest professors you meet just are, like, are shit teachers. The worst teachers, right? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I got to ask, though,

what is your creative process behind how you, like, make your videos? How did you get, like, your video ideas from, man? Because you have, like, some of the craziest fucking video ideas, I think on the platform. Yeah. No, this happens.

Like, it happens very rarely. So it's, like, probably the most annoying shit is, like, coming up with an idea that I think is good. that I like would have fun doing. Yeah. That's probably why it takes so long to make videos. Yeah.

I don't know. I just like, we'll be doing something. And I'd be like this, I couldn't make this way more complicated and stupid. Do you have like a short list of ideas of like things you like want to proceed? Yeah, I got a couple of them. I got, yeah, I had a, yeah, I do have a short list of ideas. But a lot of them are like,

maybes. I think one is like, yeah, a lot of them are like dependent on if it will work. I think one is like a meat rumba, a rumba made of meat. And I had like a baby killing drone idea But that one I didn't end up doing that. Do you want to expand upon that one? Yeah

It was like a drone That would like it would kill babies Like with Lego pieces like choking hazard? No Oh, pneumatic spike on the drone And it would find The idea was the drone

It would only go for babies Yeah It would like have a vision system And a pneumatic spike With baby kill Don't tell the US government, they're gonna try and get that technology. We need that.

They need that. Have you ever had like an idea that you've started working on? Because like it takes you like fucking months to do it. So I can't imagine being you're in your position where you have to like commit to one idea and you like need to commit to this for months. Yeah, I try to validate it as fast as I can

because if it doesn't, if it isn't good then I'll like, you know, shoot it and just not do it. I'll kill it because it's just not So I like try to get like, like in the beginning, I'll like try to get as much done on like the tech side of stuff to just like validate like, okay, this is going to work to the end of the video. And then I'll like start the video. And it'll be like halfway done. I'll do it like in the middle and stuff. But I get to a point where I'm like, okay, the video will work. Because I don't want to start filming and then I'm like, this isn't going to work. Yeah. Yeah. What percentage of ideas do you scrap, would you say? Um, I don't know. Usually I'm pretty good at not trying it. Pursuing saying this. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'm good at like killing it before I even like try to do it. Yeah. Yeah.

So I just shoot down like 90% of like, what's the, what's the video that took you the longest from like start to finish? Oh. Um, the like longest in time. Yeah. Probably like the,

that, the, uh, like a, the beer pissing dog video I made. Oh, I was gonna, that took a pretty long.

That or the, um, the surgery robot was really intense. Yeah, I spend a lot of time like, I had a really good time working on. That was one of my favorite ones. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because it was like good work every day.

Like I would always like, like, make some progress. Yeah, I'd wake up and I'd be like, okay, these 3D printed parts don't fit together so good. I'll print it out tomorrow and I wake up. They'd be down off the printer. And then I'd like sit in my garage, listen to music and like the door would be open. And I'd like have everything working. And that one went pretty well. Yeah.

It just took a really long time to like get everything down for that. Right, right. Yeah. That was a great one. Sounds like Tony Stark or something like that. So like that thing. wasn't small. What are you doing with all this stuff? Oh, so that, dude, well, that one I

used a little bit for stream. So I, like, attached a camera to it and to where the knife was. And I used, like, I, instead of the hand thing, it's like PS3 controller, yeah, right, and I would just move it around so people could see what I was doing on the table when I was screaming.

But then when I moved, I was just like, I, like, cut it up and took all the electronics and all the good bits and just threw the rest away. Yeah. Yeah. That one was way too fucking big. I was going to say, I'm like, you can't just have like a storeroom, your museum of that. I have some of my shit in like a store room somewhere.

I imagine if it's like practical, you're like, I can keep the room though. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's small too, it's like easy kinda. Yeah. Have you ever come close to like injuring yourself? Because like I see some of your fucking inventions. I'm like, this is- A couple times.

Usually electrocution is like the main concern. Does that just a normal thing for you? A lot? I mean, I've never been like tased or anything. It's been a while since, oh really? No, I can't say that. Should I, why did you, like, perk up? It's not as bad.

I think everyone should know at least once. It doesn't look that bad, because everyone seems okay after it. Yeah, like, I mean, how bad can it be? Because it's like it hurts really bad, but it's not like getting hit where it hurts for a while because it hurts really bad and then not at all. Yeah, right.

It's like you've gone for to worry about the after consequences. Neither of us have been tased. Yeah, yeah. And there's a difference between like stun gun tasers, like that you get on Amazon and like a police taser. Yeah, like a police tasers. just like, you probably shouldn't do that. Yeah, like, I'm not gagging over it.

You know, I'm like, I'm good if I don't. Did you ever watch for the, was it Coyote Peters? Yeah, yeah, yeah, go to one of those with tasers. Got it. I'm about to answer the stings zone. All right, so I'm about to grab the mains of my house. I'm gonna let you guys know how this feels.

Yeah, I did, um, when I was, well, when I was a kid, I did get the mains of my house across the chest. Through the heart. How? Okay, so, I like I wasn't super good at any, at that stuff, but I knew. Electricity is sparked.

So you've been fucking with electricity since I was like, maybe 14 like vaguely, because we had a lot of trash around our house. This is supervillain or superhero origin. So like I would just like get a bunch of batteries and stick me together and the wires would heat up and be like that sweet. And then I was like, dude, we have electricity in the walls.

Why am I messing with batteries? And so. You gotta pay for you. I don't pay for that shit. I would just cut, like a cord, a power cord, and just cut it, and then get the two wires. And I would just flick them together. And in, like, stranded wires, it instantly, like, especially if it's, like, thin strand and it goes, poof. It's, like, in a bunch of sparks and molten copper everywhere.

And it's really cool. And so I was like, fuck, the copper's, like, getting all messed up. So I soldered, like, or not solder, I probably just twisted the wire in hot glue. That was my soldering forever. Yeah. Was twisting the wire on metal and hot gluing it? Yeah, dude, like even into many YouTube videos it was that. Oh, Jesus.

So I twisted that and I was like, taping that and I don't know, I just touched the both of them and got the, got through the chest. Fuck you up, like. No, I mean, well, you don't do it. Yeah, yeah, because you would not recommend this. Yeah, and you would super die in the, in- In Japan and in- 240 volt.

Oh, yeah, no wait, no wait. No, wait. It's 220, right? Yeah, 220, 220, 2-20. It's 240 in the UK, right? Yeah, the, And so that's four times. That's like four times the power.

Yeah, yeah. I get scared watching Electro Booms videos. Yeah, me too. Just always trips wires and stuff. I know, I know he knows what he's doing, I think. I don't know, he seems like he knows. I think, yeah. I don't know, but he did one video

where he went to the UK. Yeah, he was in a hotel room. Yeah. And he just, he tries to like short the mains and he just fucking, the whole walls black. Like the whole thing. And he's like, oh, this, this mains in the hotel. is not that good in the UK.

I'm like, what the fuck? He's go to a hotel and do that? Dude, he did it in Hawaii too. I know he does it. I know why he does it. He goes and does it so he can tax right off the vacation for his family. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

He puts the family in the video too. So he fucking writes it off for sure. I was thinking that exact shit. Yeah. Yeah. So this is like a kind of thing, I think he, I assume he's an engineer. I think I've seen.

He's got a master's in electrical. Yeah, he's very knowledgeable. Yeah. I think I've seen some of these videos. . He shocks himself quite often. literally let's get himself. I think usually it's control.

I think the one that was scary was his Jacob's ladder video for like a million subs. Oh, that was fucking scary. Yeah, because that one's like, like with 220 or like mains in a house, it's like you probably won't die. But like there, obviously there's a chance you will. But there's like it's not guaranteed.

But like the Jacob's ladder, it's like 16,000 volts. It's like instant death. Yeah. If you touched it. Yeah. And his, he was like celebrating some subscriber milestone as going up. And like he kicked the wire and it fell towards him.

Yeah. I saw that. I don't know how we like managed to get out of the way because that shit has to be instant death. Yeah. Yeah. I just can't believe how reckless he is. You should watch it.

It's very, yeah, yeah. I just don't understand people who are okay around live wire. Well, I mean, if you're, if you've probably studied it your whole life, you probably feel a bit more comfortable, probably not a good idea still, but you know, I can understand why he'd be like, I know exactly how all this works.

Yeah, I've got that, what's the, what's it called America? The thing where if you letchke yourself, the plug flips. Yeah, it's got the GSEA. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I got a breaker. Breakers, that's the breakers. Yeah.

All our plugs have the fuses in them, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah, and the fuse as well. That's probably smart. Well, yeah, but then the fucking annoying ones that we stand on there. We got like the three pronged ones, which is just like, it's so much bigger than any other plug.

Yeah. It's fucking massive, right? But every plug has a fuse in it. Yeah. Like, and you can change it. Yeah. It's really nice. That's quite smart, yeah.

Yeah. So is that where your obsession with getting electrocuted started at a young age? Or electrocuting other people? You want to like, you want them to experience What you'd experience? I don't know.

Well, you know that kid that stuck the fork in the socket? You're the reason why we have those like things on the, like, please, don't electrify the Legos. They do not survive. All right, not gonna do that. Yeah, but damn, I mean, we have to talk about it, boxing. Yeah. Oh, I'm sure you've talked about this to no end.

Actually, not that much. Surprisingly, not that much. Let's go. Let's bring it on. Let's go. Let's go. I mean, how was that? How was that whole process?

It was so awesome. I will never do it again. Really? Yeah, because like, like I, I love everything. I actually really loved everything about it, except for, like, realizing, like, I feel my fucking brain moving when I get hit, and I don't like that.

Like, being dizzy the day afterwards of, like, a hard sparring is not it. But, like, everything, like, the training is cool because you're working towards a goal, especially with Craitor Clash, you know, you're doing a thing. They're paid to get in shape. Exactly. Yeah, I had the trainer comp. I had like the best trainer possible. He was great. He was like a golden gloves champ in the state of California. And like almost the nation, I think he probably was. Oh, damn. Yeah. And so it was like awesome, but I won't do it again. How intense was like the training leading up to us? It was pretty intense. Like how long did you have to do it for? So I didn't have, I got in like near the end of when they're getting people. So I had not as much time. But I did it. I think generally it's you should do it a lot. It's like for me it was. For me, it was four. five times a week.

And then every day was like a run before my coach got there. He'd come. Yeah. And then we'd do like jump rope, some like pads. Like hit the bag, some ladders. Yeah. Some, just a whole bunch of bullshit. Right.

And then it was done. So all in all, it was like a good like two some hours, three some hours every day. Fuck. There's a lot of times. Yeah. Yeah. It was good. Yeah.

We got like a lot of sparring in too. Sparring is like the most important part because you get to actually see what. it's like everything you've learned up until then is garbage. You're gonna be like sore all the time, right? After sparring a little bit. Generally after like doing the training itself for a while. Yeah, you're kind of warmed up for it. Yeah, but it was very intense.

It was quite intense. So how many like months were you doing the five days a week? I wanna say like three to four months. Yeah. But like there were like times when I had to go somewhere on vacation, not on vacation, but like go to another place for like weeks at the time and I had to stop or like find a treadmill there and just run right right right yeah yeah yeah it was a fuck done I train it yeah I think no one thought it was gonna be super intense or like

we were like okay YouTuber boxing whatever but then like we saw how serious uh Ian like idubs is taking yeah yeah yeah and he'd come over like to every city that fighters were in right and you'd be like make sure we have a coach everything we'd like meet his coach and he's like yeah I'm training five times a week I all he do is fucking eat chicken and rice and this is all I do I breathe boxing I was like, holy shit, you're taking it really seriously. Did you like adapt your diet as well to be like the box of diet? Yeah, I tried to just eat like generally okay. Nothing intense.

Yeah, just as much like chicken and rice as I could. Right. Like, you know, I'd sneak some meat in there, like some steaks and stuff. Yeah, that was fine. Isn't chicken meat? Yeah. Yeah. Not how I cook.

It's poultry. Oh my God. So how was the event itself? Because the event was awesome. Yeah. It was so cool. We're just talking to Lily about how nervous she was, just watching you get on stage, you're getting hit.

Yeah, yeah. It was awesome though, like the place was filled out. Yeah. The crowd was amazing. They were just like yelling nonstop, freaking the fuck out. Yeah. Yeah, it was just like, it's such a well put together event.

Everyone was super nice. Yeah. Yeah, it looks so fucking good. I can't like describe how it was walking out. It was amazing. Yeah, what was going through your mind when you were, because that must have been like, holy shit, this is actually gonna happen.

I'm actually like before. It was kind of like mentally numb at that point. Yeah. I heard fucking my song come on is mine diamonds. Yeah. I love that parody. Yeah. And that made everything better.

All in the world is right. When you were walking in the rain, were you like, I think I've got this. Like, I think no one. I, because obviously you're good friends with that. With Graham. Yeah, yeah, we are.

I was feeling actually nervous up until like we started and even when we were going, I. The first time was shaky for you. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was very unsure because like my plan was to just gauge first the coach's plan. You know, you gauge first round, get them a little tired, like play kind of defensively. And then the second round, you can move off of that.

So that's what I was trying to do as much as I can. But like, even following that plan, I was like, fuck, he's kind of like hitting me. Like, I know he's getting tired. I know this is the plan, but I'm still scared. I was like, I think there was a moment where I was like, I need to start hitting him in order to win or I will lose. Yeah. Because obviously the points, right? If it goes to technical.

Yeah, yeah. And I felt like I was losing like the entire first round, but I think it went even. Yeah, it was complete, like, it was crazy seeing it from the outside because it felt weird as fucking. Completely like, yeah, like how much of what, how much do you remember being in the ring?

Do you remember like people chanting your names? Because I do remember that. Okay, okay. And like, I was like, that's nice. That's nice. Shut the fuck up. That did help out. It was nice.

I was like, oh, man, these people are going to see goddamn lose. Yeah, it was amazing. It was really cool. But it did like kind of shut out everything else. Right. You're supposed to listen to your coach. Like they're supposed to be calling shit.

And it's like he could have been speaking different languages. He'd be speaking in tongues. While you're fighting? Yeah, you're supposed to like listen. Normally in boxing you're supposed to like, your coach is supposed to be like, hey, fucking take it downstairs. Jab, get back on the jab.

And like, I'm listening to none of that. Is that like an amateur thing? Or is that like you just, When you're like for every box. I think at every level you're able to do that. And I think it's a pro level day, because then they get to, they actually get to see from the outside.

They'll be like, okay, it will work if you go downstairs and I hit the body or whatever. Yeah, and so I listened to him a little between the rounds. A little bit. Yeah, a little bit. Yeah. You got some water? Yeah, all right. Sure, yeah. It was, it was super fun.

Yeah. My coach was training like three of the people who were fighting. So he was busy as hell that night. Oh, okay. Yeah. And it was really official backstage. Backstage was nerve-wracking. Because we get there and there's like the blue locker room and the red locker room.

And so we're split up by like the people who are fighting. Not a lot of people know, but before the fight, there was a pro fight in that same arena, just not streamed. Right. And the pro, so there was one pro in our room and one pro in their room. And our pro got T-KOed first round of his fight. And so he came back to the locker room and he was like, fuck. Shit! Fuck!

Just like This is a giant dude Huge professional box Just pissed as fine And so we're like all like Nervous as hell Oh my God Yeah

Really bad vibes in our lot The other one room was like cheering I heard after they were like Yeah let's go And then he goes out to the fucking Minecraft Turn that shit on! Yeah I got the fuck up

I'm gonna cry Yeah Yeah and then we had Matt Matt in our room We saw him get just annihilated By dad We did Oh

We didn't get to see anything live until after our fight. So we're like in there watching the TV and we watched the first round like jaws hanging open. Like what the fuck? Is that how all of them are gonna be? We didn't know. We're like, is this what's happening? What have we gone ourselves into?

I'm gonna do that? That's gonna happen to me. I was so nervous. I was just like sitting there not talking to anyone. Will got some really good footage of me just like sitting there with headphones in just like listening to music as much as I could. So like how does like it compare to like when you went sparring?

Cause like it wasn't something where kind of like your experience just took over, you know, with all the sparring experience? I had to like try and be kind of conscious about it. I had to consciously think like I will be making these moves. But like sparring, it was crazy too because in sparring, I did like five, six, seven sparring sessions with different people. I never won like a single round of sparring. And you're not supposed to, you know, you're not winning in sparring. Right. No, it's not counted. Who are you sparring against? my head fucking hurts after, I lost that round, you know? Right. Yeah. So I sparred against my coat first. And he's like, you know, a professional. And so he has to like hold back.

So you're not fighting someone really. You're finding a good guy who's holding back. It's like when you like hold back and smash against like your girlfriend. She's right there too. Yeah. And so I fought him. He shits on me constantly. Obviously.

We went to another, a gym. and they were very nice we were trying to find people for me to spar and there was this girl who's like professional I was scared as fuck of her I was like how long you've been sparring she's like since I was like nine

and I was like okay that seems fine that was the hardest I've been punched she had the heart she hit me the hardest out of anyone I was hard it was cool to see different techniques because my coach is very like fluid and all over the place

she had like incredible defense and she'd like block everything and frustrate the shit out of you and you come in she'd like had this really good check hook and she just blast your head. Yeah, yeah. And like getting hooked like that. That was, I even felt the dizziest on that day.

Yeah. So how many times a week are you sparring? Like every single time of training? No, um, in the beginning you need to like get up to snuff and then. Need the basics. Yeah. And then when like my coach thought I was ready, um, once or twice a week. Yeah.

Yeah. Uh, it's gonna be scary though. Once twice a week. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Getting your ass beat. Yeah.

Yeah. And the, the, the, the, the, the, the second one is like contingent on how much you heard from the first one. Oh, my. Yeah, so I got beat up by her. I got beat up by a 14-year-old child. I believe that. I saw some of the kids, he was really good.

I'm not even embarrassed about that. He was really good. He's like a national champion for his age. He's like the best 14-year-old in the game. Of course he's going to be the show. He was really great. He was like Ang from Avatar where he was like floating around the ring. He was like moving just so much and like,

and then get out. And then he's like, I can't hit him. And he's bop-b-b-b-b-b-b. You know, you know, I've seen in every anime where there's like a tournament like in Hunter Hunter and you see the kid come on. You realize that, you're the fucking side character. Yeah.

And then he's a little forth behind you. Side character, I know. Have you ever watched Hajima no Ippo? I got clips from after the boxing. People were talking about it. Yeah, because I think you did like one of the, like a move similar to what they do. Yeah.

The Dempsey roll? Dempsey roll. Hell, I've had it a Dempsey role. You know Dempsey's a real guy? Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's crazy. It's just he just took the move and kind of made it like a more popular thing

in the show, right? So Normies know it, but like everyone knew it. Like, yeah, it's real. He's like one of the best, right? He was very good, yeah. Yeah, yeah. He had like a Mike Tyson style thing where you're just like, and then,

yeah, exactly. That's what like the main characters. You can't channeled anime without knowing it. Yeah, we had the power of God an anime. It's like a, like a very good defense. You're supposed to roll against a hook. Right. That's when you're supposed to do the role.

Yeah. Yeah. But, Most of that shit goes out the window. Yeah, in the room. I tried a boxing class like a few days ago. Oh, I saw it. That was my coach. Oh, him? Yeah. He was so fast.

Michael, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. When he was doing like, he said, no, no, you gotta do it like this. I'm like, what did you just do? I couldn't even see what he's so smooth and quick. He's like, I'm like, okay. I know, okay, all right, okay. He's like one of those anime characters

where he punches once and he's like, actually punch three times. But like four days afterwards, my entire body. Hurts, yeah. And dude, like you can't use your phone, your hands and your fingers are fucking up. Well like rubber. It's like I couldn't walk.

Jesus. I felt like I looked like an idiot when I was walking. Full-time commitment. But like I'm an America so walking is optional. That's true, that's true. But yeah, it was, dude,

it was just like every workout was a sprint. Yeah. Like I thought I was pretty fit because I do a lot of running. Running was, did not prepare me for this. Yeah, it's like you have to do sprint training. Yeah. It's like a full on cardio workout.

It's full on like basically sprinting every exercise. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, no, it really is. Like, yeah, it really is. Like, yeah, when you're like doing the treadmill, you're supposed to like run in sprints

instead of just constantly. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Cause it's like you're trying to imitate the rounds. Right, right. Yeah, it was fucked out. Yeah, it was fucked up. Yeah, it was fucked up. It was fucked up.

It was fun, though. It looked sweet. Yeah, it was kind of cool. I mean, I think it was like pretty big, so it's hard to really feel like you were learning anything like, yeah, tailored to you. But I mean, it's good though. It was like, only had like one class,

so, you know, yeah, there's more room. Could you do that five days a week for a month and a time? No, okay, I think I would, Like what I was saying is like, I think I would enjoy it more if I was like just me and him. And then I could take my time. And then you could really give me like,

all right, you're struggling here. Yeah, yeah, just be like, all right, 12 of you do jabs. And then you would maybe like, yeah, it's okay. You know what I mean? So it's like, I'm actually doing it right? I don't know. But yeah, no, I mean, it seems I really wanna do it more.

Yeah, it seems really fun. It looks really fun, but also. Terrifying. It looks terrifying at the same time. Was there a point when you knew that you had this? Because I like, I can't remember which random was, but like, you really looked like you were

feeling yourself. Yeah, there was a point where like, I, like, one punch where I was like, that really hit his face. I was like, like, turn him around and I was like that. And that was like very, because I didn't have a lot of confidence before that. But once I hit it, I was like, oh, I can hit. I can hit him. Oh, okay. You can land the punches. Yeah, I can land the punches. Yeah. I think, I think Alex said something similar. I asked him. I met him the other day and I was like, when did you think you'd want it? He was like, you said something along the lines of like, I landed one jab and it was like, oh, okay. And it's like, I know, I know, I'm, Yeah.

Oh, I'll just do that. Oh, I just gotta do that. Oh, I got a punch. I imagine when you fucking see the guy doing like a kind of punch out

kind of full and over wobble. Yeah, all right, I think I'm pretty good. Like, I think it's going well. Yeah. There was a point where I was like

getting mad. I don't, like, the camera didn't really catch it because I'm glad. I like hit him with one shot like right hand. I was like,

yeah. Fuck, motherfucker fuck, you were hitting me and shit. I was like, I'm gonna. You need that energy though, right?

Yeah, yeah. What do you mean you're not just a sandbag? You're taking my punches. Divorified this. Yeah. Oh my God. That's crazy.

Second round, it got a lot better, yeah. I mean, yeah, you looked amazing at it. I think the whole event was just so fucking awesome. Yeah, yeah. I, like, props to everyone who like said yes, because I mean, did you know going into it, like how big of a deal it was gonna be? No, no.

He was just like, you wanna do a boxing thing? Right, right. You must not have, like, known it was gonna turn out that way. Yeah, it did not, no idea. Yeah, I didn't know it was gonna be the, that big or that serious. Ian's a madman, dude. Ian's a madman.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. He took it very seriously, he's very good. Yeah, that's a prox. So he's fucking brought like everyone up with him, though, with how serious he's doing, which is like really respectable, considering like the YouTube boxing scene nowadays. Yeah, it kind of feels like a clown show sometimes,

you know? And now there's like, I think three more, like more serious events gonna pop up soon, inspired by like the three-clash stuff, so. Hell yeah, I think you met of that. It's gonna be like, league, it's like, oh, if you're a big YouTuber, gets going the big one.

Everyone under that. Bar of interest, 10 million songs. It's like, instead of getting like a shitty plaque when you get 100K, they're like, oh, I'd go and join the little lugs. Yeah, come down like, Susan watches you. She, like, swirls her glass.

You can fucking, like, work your way up. Yeah. I can see Mr. B. Steering it. 100 people versus Mike Tyson. Yeah. 100 people schoolers versus Mike Tyson. That sounds good. That sounds awesome.

I would watch that. great. Yeah. It's like the next generation gladiator. Yeah. I mean, that's basically what it's turning into, right? Yeah. Cause it's just like fun to see your favorite creators

do like a totally new thing. Yeah, they would, they have, it was weird seeing like Ian and even like, like Ryan go up there. It's really cool. Matt. Yeah. For his fight. Yeah, that was crazy. When did you find out who your opponent was?

Um, I, like, uh, like a few weeks after I agreed. I think they were looking for someone for me for a while. Yeah. Um, he was gonna put me against fucking Captain Sparkles, who is, been boxing for like years. And he's like, 80 pounds heavier than me. So you just die. It's like just got. Not only that.

I don't think the boxing commission would have let us fight. I had to like be within 10 pounds a gram. I actually was, I, so I went to Florida. I think I was like 124. Yeah. I got to Florida. Check the next day. I was like 122.

And then on the day before the way in, they were like, okay, go on the scale. just to see to make sure, because Graham was like 129. Okay, right. No, no, no, he's 1, 32. And I was like 119. I lost so much like water weight in Florida. And so like the hour before the thing,

nonstop drinking Gatorick and water, needing to piss so bad. I gained like, I think I gained three and a half pounds in one hour just by drinking water. Oh, if you drank like enough water. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Full of piss.

Yeah. You just get punched? I needed a piss so bad before the fight. But what happens, they'll wrap your hands and the boxing commission has to sign off on it and then gloves and they have to sign off on it. So you can't take them off. So I was like, man, I kind of got a piss,

but what am I going to do? And the guy who was like warming me up, who was Michael's friend, he was like, I got you, I'd done this before. And we fucking, and he's like, come on. And we go in the bathroom. And I have like my car guard on. and my pants and he's like, okay, I'm just gonna,

I got you, and he just grabbed it and like stood behind me and pulled it down and I had to like use the thumbs of the boxing gloves to like nudge the above. And so I just like stood there pissing and he was like holding it, holding me. That's a real bro. Yeah, it was bonding for sure. That was nice.

You're in good hands. Very nice of him. Yeah, very nice. Did you have like Edward Ciderhands in America? It's like a drinking game. That sounds pretty simple. Edward 40 hands. Edward 40 hands.

40 hands, okay, okay. So that's what it sounds like to me. Yeah, yeah. Just like, so what's Edward 40 hands? Is it? It's the same thing. Same thing. Yeah, it's Edward's cider hands.

Because we call Edward's cider hands in Australia. Okay. But in America it's Edward 40 hands, right? Yeah, because you're doing 40s. Yeah, like a bottle of 40 ounces. Yeah. So basically you get like a bottle of cider or 40s, like literally taped on to your hands

and you gotta finish it before you can take them off. So at one of, point you're going to need to go to piss. And it's, it's, it's, it's really, really fucking difficult to drink one, right? Hopefully. And then hopefully, and then hopefully you can, you can pee. Yeah. Dude, I'd fucking lose that shit. Like, my bladder, my bladder is like, fucking tiny, man. My bladder is absolutely, I had, I had a weird thing where it, like, felt like, it popped one time. Like, I had to piss really bad at this restaurant. Yeah. With your bladder popped?

And I was, like, in the end of a line. Yeah. And I went to the bathroom. It took super long. And, like, as I, like, you know, how you kind of suck in and you're, like, taking hands off. And, like, on that suck in, it was, like, like, like, I like felt something and like my vision started getting like black around the eyes. Oh my God. And it was just like very painful and dizzy. And I finished the piss and I went out and I sat on the ground for like 10 minutes. And but then I was fine.

But I think I can't hold as much piss after that. It's like I permanently sacrificed half the way. You're like permanently debunked your blood. Just debuffed your bladder. Even now I have to piss so bad. There's water. Oh, you can go toilet now. I don't want you to take a toilet break.

I don't want you loose like, yeah. Let's take a toilet break. I have 25%. This episode is sponsored by gamer subs. Gamer's. Gamer's. Gamer's. Gers.

Fucking not in the war now Eat real food Like Very British stuff has some kind of origin. Yeah, we were desperate, so we made this thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then it stayed around for some reason.

I love beans and toast, though. I've said this on the episode with Lily, but I actually fucking love beans and toast. Like, I don't know. It's good. It's good. I'm gonna make it for you. Suggie, that's good.

Okay, listen, all right? Nice, like thick bread. Oh, I know what it is. Because it's in the name. You put it in the fucking name. No one actually just, just eats beans and only toast. You put like cheese, you put like a fried egg on it,

and then you put like some sauce. Oh, it's so good. This is good. Wait, what do you eat? What do you eat? Do you like beans in general? I like free friends. We gotta start from the fundamental.

Do you like beans? I'm okay as a side, as a side. Okay, so that's the fun of the problem. In the UK, I cannot like stress how often beans are eaten. Like it's very often. It's like every side. It goes with like pretty much every British cuisine. Every restaurant will have beans.

on the side. Yeah, some way. Yeah, no. Not really my... You don't want to come to the UK? No. No, I don't think so for like anything, really. Are you this? I don't know. It's kind of, how do you think about, how do you feel about Ireland? Fun? I love Ireland. Yeah, I fucking love Ireland. It's like, it's like up there with Japan for like one of the most aesthetic countries I've ever been to. Because like in Japan, you go anywhere and just like, you take a picture and it's like fucking Instagram worthy. It's the same thing in Ireland. You could just drive around. It's so green.

Yeah. He's never been to Wales, that's why. Yeah. Wales is the same. Was it? Yeah. I'm from Wales. Yeah.

Do you know where Wales is? Yeah, Welshman. Yeah, that's it, that's it. Because some people think it's like a fucking city in England or something. No, I know it's a country. Okay, that's, I mean, that's more than most. Yeah, yeah.

Have you been to the UK? I've never been to the UK. Oh, you never been to Europe. Oh, you know, why do more people not talk about Wales? They're terrible at branding. Is, is, is their tourism, like, just, just, just, Yeah, because they shit at branding. Island, they had Guinness,

and then they were like, if you wanna get drunk, come here. Yeah. And they branded so well off that. I've heard the same thing about Scotland as well, where Scotland's like a beautiful fucking country. You got, it's got the whiskey there as well. What does Wells have?

Sheep, lots and lots of sheep. So is New Zealand. Yeah, but like, it's, New Zealand's too far. Like, no, the fuck wants to go to New Zealand. I wanna go to New Zealand? Yeah, because you're Australian. It's like, what, like a, like a, like a car journey. No, it's still four hours from Sydney.

No, no, it's all. It's all fucking far away, but it's beautiful. I mean, UK's nice, but I feel like if you don't drink, it's kind of boring. Yeah. So that's a, see, that's a red flag is the thing. You need to be drunk to enjoy something, then you don't actually enjoy it. No, no, no, no.

It's not like everything is designed around, you do it with a drink. Yeah. It's not so that you get drunk, it's like, okay, you wanna do darts? Well, you gotta drink, we play darts. Yeah. Yeah. Like every, every activity you do that

is paired with drinking in some way, shape, or form. I see the denial. That's gonna. I understand. It's emblematic of a larger issue. Well, what if you go round one with drinks and those drink holders? I mean, I like that.

Yeah, that's how you would enhance. Like your justification for a country, bad. Okay, okay, look, the British philosophy is every activity can be made more fun with drinking. That's true, right, right, right. Yeah. See, America's in its infancy, right?

It's still like, what, 200 something years old, to 50? Yeah. So they haven't got to like the depression age yet where they realize, just fucking give up. Let's just drink. Yeah, I'm getting there.

So the UK's just been like, oh fuck, man. Yeah. This church has been here for like 900 years. May as well fucking drinking it. Yeah. I don't know. Father, may I? Yeah.

I'm pretty sure that's why, you know, religion, like Christianity did so well, because the wine. I'm pretty, like, if that wasn't in it, you think British people would like, you know, go into fucking Sunday Mass and being like, yo, let me neck this. Like, when they leave Sunday.

Like, down to the pub. People like, so, like, people just go to the pub, like elderly people over the age of like 50 from like 12 o'clock and they just start drinking. 12 o'clock is a bit late. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. I've heard from Sydney when she,

because my wife worked out like a British pub and before the pub opened, there would be like old guys waiting, queuing to get in this pub at like 8 a.m. Oh my gosh, and they'd order like a double whiskey on the rocks when they come in. That's kinda cool, that's kinda cool of them. I wanna be there at that age.

Just like, what are you doing today? Bob. Nothing else, just pub. That's what they do, because that's where you see your friends in the UK when you're like that old. Yeah. Yeah, but like I've seen some people

just sitting there at the pub on their own. Oh yeah. As well. So they're not even going to the pub to like converse. What's Aussie culture like? Pretty much the same. Except for us, it's if, if it's too early to go to the pub,

you just go to the beach. Yeah, yeah. Dude, drinking in the beach is so fun. Dringing the beach is the fucking best. Except you can't do it in a lot of beaches in Australia, so never mind that. Stan, Hawaii. Yeah.

I feel like they would have been like super strict. I don't know, I've never gotten in trouble. That went from so confident. Everyone does it, so it's okay. Yeah, yeah. I went to a pub with a friend for dinner and lunch, no, breakfast even, breakfast like 11. So one of the meals of the day.

It was very early because this guy came in, ordered three beers, drank them all on his own, then just left. And I was like, what do we, he's getting the day started. Yeah. Like he dropped his kids off somewhere and was just like, fuck. Finally. I can just leave.

It is very, like, depressing. Yeah. Yeah, that's, I think that's why we are the way we are. This is why everyone is cynical and, you know, just miserable. But it's like a fun, charming way. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

I was going to say with our humor, I mean, it's just kind of with life. With everything. We love cringe humor so much. Oh, yeah. Like, I don't know if you've ever watched any British TV shows or. Yeah, I've seen a couple. Have you ever seen peep show?

No. Oh, that's good. You should watch the show. In between us? Mm-mm. Oh my God, do you should watch these? Not a pinnacle of cringe. Not a bit British television fan.

Fuck. Not a lot of that. What do you watch? Like a little cringe humor. I don't watch any TV. Really? Really? Not like now.

No anime? Do you watch anything? Anime, like the last anime I watched through was probably like Mob Psycho. I mean, that's honestly, that's good fucking taste. Ended up being like the best one. Yeah. I've seen, so.

You did good then. Cut it off. Stop it there. Don't need to look anymore. I hit the peak already. Yeah. I remember that, uh, I think we briefly spoke because you liked banana fish.

Oh, I love banana fish. Me too. But like, it's one of those shows where it was really underappreciated and people didn't really talk about it. I'm surprised you watch banana fish because most anime fans don't know about banana fish. I quite liked that.

Yeah. Yeah. I think it was just like, really, really fucking good. It was marketed poorly, I think. It was marked as like, yawi bait kind of, yeah, yeah. Oh, if you're a girl and you like seeing hot guys have problems. But it was a good-

Like twice, that was it. Yeah, but it was a fucking awesome show. It was really, besides that, yeah. It was super cool. Including that, made elevated by that. Oh, sure. I could have elevated it. I mean, yeah, it was hot.

It was epic. What other anime have you watched? I mean, we obligatory have to talk about it. Yeah, because we are technically- TEN-a-a-a-a-a-podge. We never talk about anime. Yeah, yeah. Um, nothing really.

Good. Not a lot of anime. Yeah. Well, join the club. Yeah. I watch a few episodes of that Spy family show, which was pretty good, quite good. I also enjoy food.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Was that, um, had Netflix, uh, I don't know if that was an anime. Arcane? No, yeah, yes, my favorite anime. Did you like Arcane? I loved Arcane. Yeah, me too. That was excellent. You guys, that's great.

I had to do it, Joey. It had to do it. You just to watch it. Why? It's just funny. It's just funny to see like Arcane fans, just get pissed off, whatever I say that. It is excellent. It's a good one.

Yeah. No, it was called, uh, a great pretender. Oh yeah, watched the great pretender? That was, that was a good, fucking show.

It was fucking awesome. Yeah, yeah, I watched that one the way through, but like a good, good fucking show. Yeah,

it was good the way through. Yeah, that was probably the last one. Yeah, I guess, because like, I guess it, it sounds like you watch

like a wide variety of anime just from like different sources because like banana fish is like really, really fucking underground, apparently. Yeah, how the fuck did you just show? Yeah, yeah.

I don't know. It just came on. I forget where I heard of it. It was good. I, um, Was in the mag club in high school because my friend was the president manga anime and gaming.

Oh, my friend was the trifecta. He shut them all under one. Yeah, yeah, you can't have your separate clubs. It was a bad school. It wasn't a great school. Well, it's not like it, I mean, it was a smaller school, so.

They're like a Harry Potter club at mine. Yeah. Just for Harry Potter. That's fucked up. Well, you're in that? Fuck no. I don't know. You brought it up, so I thought you had some stories.

The movies were over at that point. I wonder what they were still talking about. Like, oh, I can't wait until a fantastic beast, right? J.K. Rowling, Sesson and fucked up on Twitter again. I don't think so.

Yeah. No, yeah, I watched the first anime I ever saw was Death Note and I would watch it in my STEM class at lunch because they didn't have a VPN up at the school. Right. You just stream it at lunch. It was really nice.

Yeah. Go to the computer class and just watch. What's your favorite anime? Like of all time? I'm off psycho. Love Psycho? Yeah. Good choice.

That's very solid. Season two with the animation with that one fight where they'd do teleports. The teleporting fight? Yeah. Fuck. That one just gonna rock hard when I think about it. Are you gonna watch season three when it comes out?

I didn't know they were doing a season. Yeah, it's coming out this year or next year. It's not gonna be the final one. It's gonna final season. Yeah, the final season. That's sick. No, I didn't know that. Oh.

You join this audio listeners? You never do this? No, I mean, not on the show. Oh, you're gonna pop it? You're gonna pop it? Yeah. You're done? I've never seen this, but yeah. This is giving me really anxiety now.

Oh, what? I've never seen that smoke before. What in my glass? What the hell? You can do it with any bottle, yeah. Can you just turn anything into a fucking gun? Is that your like talent? That's his superpower, right?

I can immediately put the people around me in danger. At any point, that's my quirk. So I heard a little story that you, when you got the, got the Boston Dynamics dog thing. Yeah. You still own that, right? Yeah, it's around. What do you do with it? It's at the offline TV house right now.

Does it do anything? Um, not really. I'm still thinking of shit to do with it. So, he's just like, watching. He's just waiting to be turned on again. Oh no. She's like, just, it's crying. Yeah, I see him every time I walk up the stairs.

He's like under the staircase. Oh, Harry Potter, yeah. No. So did you get that specifically for the Piss Robot video idea? No. Or did you just get one and was like, I gotta make it a joint thing with offline TV.

We all got it together. And then I was like, I'll use it for this. This sounds awesome. So you convinced them to pay? Yeah, because we used it in a couple offline TV videos. Oh, really? Yeah.

So it was kind of a tax right off. Maylan. Can we get a dog, Maylan? I want a pet, but a very specific kind of pet. Get you an intern. Did you just say that?

She said, we'll get you an intern. Oh my God. Brer. Bro. Our manager, ladies and gentlemen. So I'm going to, I don't know, we probably have announced this. We're going to Japan. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

I like running off into the night and doing things. I have some questions about Japan. Okay. If I want to ride a motorcycle or a scooter, can I do that? Can I rent one? No. No. No, you need a license.

You need a license. What if I have an international driver's license? Maybe. They have the, uh, because I can apply for that. They have those like ride on, right off like scooters now, like electric scooters that you can drive on the road. Yeah. So if you sign up for the apps and you have a driver's license,

I'm pretty sure you can. That's cool. Because I think it's like a CC thing, like a power thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like anything under like a certain CC might be allowed. Yeah, I believe so. When you get like a bicycle in Japan, you have to register it with the police.

What? A bicycle. Yeah, yeah. You have to register a bicycle. Why? Yeah. Japan loves fucking rules. There's rules for everything.

That sucks. Yeah, I mean, it's like the, I guess you get this like, you have to like arrested for not having your bicycle license? I don't know. You get your bike confiscated and it's like a fine, I think.

If you get found out. If you get found out. So Japan loves rules. Yeah. And they love rules so much. And that's why everything works really nicely. Yeah. You're just like, I just wanted the ride a bicycle.

I didn't want to have to go to the police. And tell them. But that's why I do the rental bicycle things. Yeah. Yeah. Which are like, Everywhere in Tokyo, it's so much better. Yeah.

So like, after living in Japan, I realized the way the country works is, if you wanna do something and you ask someone for permission for it, 99% of the time, they're going to say no. Because they don't know if you're allowed to do it or not, so they're just gonna say no. But if you do something, then there's only like,

I guess, a 50% chance that someone's gonna call you out on it, right? Isn't that the way it works, right? She's like filming in Japan, right? Yeah. Like, you know, there's plenty of, IRR streamers. Yeah. You know, they're never asked for permission.

Yeah. Yeah. But you know, whenever we do main channel videos or big things, we have to get permission. And it's, it's a nightmare. Japan is literally better to ask for forgiveness than just like, ask to do something. Yeah.

Very difficult to get permission to film in a lot of places because they just don't, they're like, yeah. That's tough. Yeah, yeah, it's just the culture. Yeah, just how it is. It's just ways around it though. Yeah.

But you get amazing, you know, the trains turn up on time and you, so I guess it kind of works out. Yeah, yeah. Like, all right, everything else works. I'll try to find a scooter. What is it that you want to do in Japan then? I just want to scoot around.

I just want to see all the stuff. Yeah, they have the scooter rental thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Sucks, we're not there when you guys are there. Yeah, that is tough. We're kind of doing trading spaces wife swap type thing. Yeah, we are, right? Yeah.

Could have showed you around. Yeah, yeah, that's tough. Literally everyone's coming to Japan when we are out of Japan. It's like it's a fucking mass exodus on both sides. It's so sad. I am really excited. I'm excited for it though. I think we're living.

Have you ever been? Yes, once before. Okay. It was amazing. What did you do that before? We went around Shibuya, I think Shinjuku. Tried out the amazing food. Tried out the, that was, oh, so good.

Fucking any ocean noise is just good. Hell yeah, it is. To me. It is. It is. It is. It is hard as fuck. Yeah.

Yeah, we did a lot of stuff. Seeing Mount Fuji was amazing. Yeah, yeah. One of the most beautiful things ever. So picturesque. Yeah. It's like unfair how like pictures and aesthetic it is.

It's like God just like perfectly crafted. Just perfect symmetry. Just a little something on top. Yeah. Add a little cherry on top. Yeah. I woke up on the bus and I was like, oh, it's like, it's God, that's God. That's like why religion exists.

Like there is like some lakes around Mount Fuji where you walk around and it literally looks like just, it's so beautiful, it literally looks fake. Yeah, I think we were at one of those lakes. It was really beautiful. Yeah, because it looks like a desktop. It just looks like Unreal Engine. Yeah.

This is what Mario is what Mario. 64 could look like rendered in 50K. Unreal engine fire. RTX on. It's not as you. How long are you guys can be there for? A while, like two weeks, solid two weeks. Yeah, so it's going to be awesome.

I think I might just branch off. Because probably my favorite part about Japan last time was just being by myself in a crowd of people and no one knowing anything. Yeah. Just being a fucking cog in a machine. was nice. That's what it's like. That was cool.

Yeah, that was cool. It was cool like just like, yeah, just like floating around and crowded areas and go in different places. It's just like the opposite of LA. Like everyone in LA, like every single person you mean, it's like you're talking to like somebody who believes they're the main character.

Yeah. And like in every sense. And then in Japan it's like, oh, I'm just here to do my part. Yeah. I'm just here to exist and not get in the way. Yeah. Yeah. Like it's really like, it's refreshing coming here,

but then after a while you're like, okay, this is too much. Yeah, I wanna go back. Yeah. It's weird. It's definitely strange being in America now. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm already fucking sick of the customer service here.

Or I guess the lack thereof. Oh, is it. Because, yeah, because I mean, I feel like we've been spoiled so much living in Japan, like with like Amazon or like just going to a fucking restaurant or whatever. But like, yeah, what I thought was normal, like next day delivery on Amazon. I thought that was just normal.

Not here, apparently. Unless you wanna pay like fucking triple the shipping fee. You do two day. Two day delivery. Yeah. But in Japan, it's like 99 times out of 100, it's been next day. I guess it makes sense.

It's just a little island. I guess it checks out. Yeah, I guess so. Fishing is no joke. They take shipping very seriously with. Yeah. Are the other islands, I quite liked your, um, biking video.

Oh yeah. Oh yeah. If you're able to go, I mean, it's a bit out of the way from Tokyo, but yeah, sure. I'm not gonna do it. Yeah. It looked cool. It was, it was like, fucking beautiful.

We somehow like lucked out on that day. The weather was so perfect. It was October as well, I think. Yeah. October? Yeah, it was like October. It was the perfect kind of like, all right, because when you're going in July, it's horrible.

Yeah, it's just disgusting. Oh yeah, you're going in July, be careful about the heat and the humidity. I grew up in Hawaiian. I've been to the Philippines in July, so it's okay. It'll be all right. It's gross. Yeah, it's disgusting. The cycling was perfect.

It was like nice, clear, like low humidity and it was just great. I mean, it's kind of stressful because you wanna focus more on just cycling but when you're filming and it was just us three and two other guys. So we're just trying to get this thing to look and sound good.

So you're constantly stopping like, are the camera's okay, are the GoPro's okay? Yeah, and you just change batteries, hey, I need batteries. Yeah.

So you do this cycling thing that should be down in like six hours, but it takes like 12. Yeah. Everything is doubled when you're filming. Yeah. So I'm sure, I mean, you do a bunch of stuff

with offline TV, right? Yeah. So I'm sure stuff would be fun if you could just do it off camera. Yeah. But it's like, okay, we've got to redo that again. Okay, let's take another take.

They do a pretty good job of like setting up, offline TV is very hands off for like when you're in the, like they handle a lot of it. Oh yeah, we kind of do most of it. Yeah, no, that's, yeah. Yeah, it's like a complete, like I do everything for myself channel and all that.

Yeah. And I know it's, well, it's just like, it was like, especially in Japan, when we first like trash taste, like the influencer and content creator, like infrastructure just wasn't there. So even if we wanted to hire a specialist in X, Y, or Z to help us make content, it was so hard. You just, you just couldn't find it for like,

for the longest time. Whereas in LA, it seems like you guys are able to just get specialists for like any area. And if they did exist, then they were most likely just like only Japanese speaking, only understand the Japanese content creator side of things, which is just completely different to the shit we do. Yeah, yeah. Right, so it's like just trying to explain that to them

being like, no, we're not gonna do it the Japanese way. Yeah. We're gonna do it the non-Japanese way. And they're just like, what do you mean? Yeah. Is there a difference? It's impossible finding some type of people that we want to do certain things. Yeah.

Because they just don't exist in Japan. Yeah. Yeah. Because you need somebody speaks English, happens to be in Japan already. And is available to do it. Yeah. Yeah.

Especially right now. Yeah. There's no one. Maybe when the country opens up a little bit, it'll be a little easier. Yeah. So like for the cycling video, it was a lot of it was just like guesswork by us. And it was like a fucking miracle, I think.

It just miraculously happened to be something that was cohesive. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. How is the YouTube over there? Do they do a lot of, there's one YouTube I really like over there. His name is sushi ramen.

Yeah. Because he's just Japanese version of you. Yeah, he's fucking awesome. Yeah, I don't know. I don't watch a whole lot of Japanese YouTubers, but like, I'd say sushi ramen is probably the most interesting. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's definitely the most interesting.

Yeah. A lot of the Japanese stuff is just like, they're trying to rip off Japanese TV. Yeah. It's really not good. And the thumbnails are fucking awful. Yeah. Their thumbnail game in Japan sucks.

Shit. It's losing. But like, who else can you compete with? Because the Japanese market is so, isolated. Like they, they progress for YouTube trends completely different from the rest of the world. Yeah.

So when you watch it, it's so like bizarre seeing this completely isolated. Yeah, it's really interesting. Yeah. I mean, a lot of Japanese people, if they speak English, they're like, oh, just go and do English because it makes way more sense. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, it's kind of, it's interesting.

Yeah, I mean, like the creator, like field or just the creator community there, it's like pretty small, especially compared to somewhere like LA. But I mean, it's slowly growing. Slowly grow. Slowly. Yeah, slowly. There's a decent amount of English channels

doing videos in your head. I'm sure if you've seen like any, you've pretty seen a bunch, I don't know. Yeah, probably. Yeah. But I mean, the J-vlogging scenes coming back, right? Yeah, but I mean, everyone is in different places while, but don't live in a case.

Because fucking Felix moved down, so I'm making J-vlogs, right? That's what happened, right? J-vlogs and then all the J-vloggers came out of their bunkers and they're like, we can make J-Vlogs again? Okay. Yeah.

It's good though. Because like, when did, when did you move to L.A. again? like four years ago. Four years ago. Something like that, yeah. How are you finding LA? It's alright.

Nah, the city fucking sucks. The city is ass. That's what everyone says. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But I can't leave the people. I can't leave, right? The industry is here. You already heard it.

Yeah, you heard all. It's just the people I know live here. Even my, like, I convinced, like, my friends from high school to move here. Right. And like, what have you done? And they're like, what if you talk? What is wrong with you?

Yeah. I'm broke. My rent is too high. Everything's broken. It's ass. I'm trying to like explore more. of it. Because I like to know where I am.

So I've been going around doing more shit, like riding, like, bird scooters as much as I can around areas, bikes and stuff. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So it's... I think the problem is just like, L.A. is just not built for, like, scooters and bikes. No, it's built for the car. It's built for cars, right? Because I've been to like European cities where I've tried out the scooters.

Yeah. Just really, really fucking fun. And useful. And it's more useful than cars and love sources. So, So like, it's hard because I, when I like to explore places, I like to like walk places. Yeah. LA is just not built for walking at all. Like everywhere else as a city,

it's like, oh, the downtown is the cool place, but like downtown LA is like, you just don't do anything there. It's not even fun, like you're not even risking it for a benefit. It's just bad. Yeah, so before like this trip, I pretty much have only been to like the downtown side of LA because that was where like anime Expo is.

So we would only have like a few days around Anime Expo. So the only place, places to explore is basically like little Tokyo and downtown LA. Yeah. And it was, I think everyone has a different experience and has a different story with shitty things

that have happened in downtown LA. Yeah, it's awesome. It's awesome. Yeah, it's like this is the best country, like a best town ever if you wanna like people watch. Yeah. Cause like there's just the strangest people exist. Yeah, LA and New York are like the top two.

Yeah, Portland also has some good shit. Yeah. Portland has some crazy shit happening. Wait, really, why? Maybe more than downtown LA. Why? I don't know. I've been to Portland once and like walking on the street. I was there for like one day and I got like voodoo donuts, which is like a famous donut place in L.A. And this like dude walks up to me and he's like, can I have that? And I was like eating this. It was called cock and balls. And it was a donut shaped like a dick and balls. And I was like, you know what? I'm done with it. Yeah, you can have it. And I like, it's in a napkin. And it's like in a wrapper. And he's like, oh, thanks. And he's fucking grabbed it by the shaft. I took it out of my hand It was crazy

Oh dude my friend My friend Just starting a goblin on the walls Yeah my friend Gabe lives in Portland And he said he He had this great story He went like on the train This

Like homeless person came up to him And he was like hello can The guy said Hi can I shake your hand And my friend was like Usually just doesn't shake hands With random people But the whole train looked at him

And everyone was looking at him And he's like I gotta kind of do this I'm an asshole. And he's like, so he like slow motion, saw the hand coming and then he shaked it.

And the guy said, I have AIDS. He's like his first thing he said. What did he say off of that? Apparently they talked to the end of the thing, like about like how he has AIDS. A little bit. Yeah.

But just his life. Holy shit. Quite an okay conversation. Yeah. Yeah. America's scary. America's weird, yeah. I had something similar

that happened to me on the UK tube though. Yeah. Oh yeah? Yeah, I had like, so the UK Metro in London. I went on because I was going somewhere. I think I was heading to your place.

Maybe or somewhere in London, but some homeless dude came up to me and he was like, excuse me, sir, and then he pulls his shirt up and there's just like a giant fucking laceration like this big and he's just bleeding from it. And he's like, I just got stabbed.

Oh! And I need hospital funds. And I'm like, what the fuck? And so like, you know, and again, same situation. Everyone in the tube is looking at me. And I'm like, well, I can't say no. Can't say no. So I just gave him like a one pound.

That's how I got to stop. It is a pound. He's a pound. Hospital funds, we're in the fucking UK. Yeah. What are you talking about? Yeah. Yes, yeah, right?

So I just like, I gave it to him and then he's like, thank you. And then I thought about it, I'm like, Isn't it a free in the UK? Yeah, yeah. I mean, luckily I didn't give him like a ten or anything. Well, I mean, he deserved it. But he was like, he was like,

I could see it was like clearly not like makeup. It was like full on, he got stabbed. Why was he on the tube? That's what I wanna know. That's fucking fishy. You get stabbed first thing you do, start going to ask him for money? Like, what is this?

I was like, I was expected that shit in America, not the UK. I'm just conditioned in the UK whenever anyone, like, talks to me, like no. Yeah, just show you know. Yeah, because like if someone starts talking to you, in the UK, something's gone wrong. Yeah, you just say, no.

It's like, no. It's like in Japan when someone starts talking to you, it's like, oh, I'm in trouble? Yeah, normally yes, you are. Yeah, normally you have fucked up. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They should leave you alone. That's the whole country designed.

Yeah, especially in London as well. Because I remember like when I first moved to London, I was like, you know, trying to be really polite. I was on the tube, I was like, letting people, you know, letting people go in front of me if they needed to go or something. And like, within a lot of,

a month of moving to London. I was like fucking pushing kids out the way. If someone, if someone like stood on like the left side of like the fucking escalator, I think I'd put out a hit on them. You know, because in England, if you stand, you always have to stand on the right side of the escalator. Always remember that. And it's like, I actually like messed up because in Japan, it's like it's like the left side, right? And I remember standing on the left side in London when I went back this time. And I, I didn't, I forgot and someone like tried to like fucking bust past me. Right. I felt like the shame, man. I felt the shame. I portrayed you.

I portrayed myself, man. In Tokyo it's the left, but in all suck, it's the right. Is there? Yeah. Yeah. Why? In West Japan, you stand on the right side, but in East Japan, you stand on the left side. I don't know why. Doesn't make any sense.

The electrical grids are different. Yeah, it's got to do it. Yeah, maybe. Oh, it's gotta go on the right. Like, wait. I remember, I've watched your channel since, like, pretty much the very first video you did. Oh, yeah?

I remember when your whole thing was being the guy with the laser, A lazy guy. Yeah. That was like your whole thing for a while. That was fun. When you made that, did you think fuck, dude?

I'm gonna keep making all these videos and become a YouTuber. No, that was like one of the ones where it was like, just gonna make it for fun. It would be cool. I was in college at the time. I was very sad, miserable.

I wanted something to do. So I like, I used like trash and pizza boxes to make it. I used like, people throw away their microwaves. So I like took them apart. I would take them from the dumpster. Oh my God.

I like got the transformer. It really didn't do anything. It was like the weight for it. But yeah, it was like made out of garbage. And I did not expect it to do anything. I just wanted to put it somewhere because I've been watching YouTube forever. So I was like, may as well make one. Yeah, definitely seemed like you had inspirations when you started.

Yeah, yeah. I watched a lot of YouTube. Who were your inspirations specifically? I don't know. I would watch just a lot of, I watch a lot of like filthy Frank. Yeah, yeah, of shows. Of course. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah, that was the best time. That was the best time on YouTube ever. Yeah. Like, I think it's the best because it's like, it's just like a dude with the fucking camera. And like Mr.

Beast is cool and shit, but like he's got like a production world around him. And like he's got like a team of 20 people doing shit at all times. Yeah. And like, Filthy Frank was just like, hey, I got the phone camera.

Just a guy with a camera. I'm just like some horrible shit. Yeah. He was just a dude in a filthy apartment. Yeah. Yeah. That's what I like. about it. I definitely like that where it's just like see what one person with a camera can do.

Is that kind of like the vibe you still try to emulate now? Where it's just like, or not. Or you're doing everything? Oh, I still, yeah, I mean, I just like to do it myself because it's like it feels like more in control. Right. But yeah, I don't do it for any specific purpose. Yeah. Like it would definitely be smarter to like outsource it to like like make someone else edited or whatever. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But it just, I can't, I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not good at working in a team either. So I can't like communicate it to them where it's like, this is what I'm going for. Like I just like, I have to know it and do it myself. Right. Yeah. How'd you balance like your YouTube with like your, what you like, you know, your Twitch,

offline TV and everything else then? Because like if I was you, I would feel like guilty for not working on my channel all the time just because you like, your upload schedule was like so vast sometimes. It is very long in between. Yeah. Not a lot of balance. Uh, I'm just, I'm very lazy sometimes and like yeah i'll just get like sidetracked doing like a different hobby you're trying some other shit out and i'll be like oh two months are gone like i like i tried to learn a little game development recently right it's like especially if i'm learning something it's always useful um yeah yeah not a lot of balance you're always like leveling up some somehow hopefully yeah hopefully that's how that's how i feel something yeah exactly yeah can't imagine you were like

super productive after doing like five days of boxing a week as well yeah That must have like killed. It took a little hit to the productivity. Little? Yeah. Just a tiny hit. Yeah. But now that it's off, I'm doing a little more.

Yeah. Sometimes it's like, I've noticed that like I can see how the video is like how much shit I got to do for it. But like when I was first starting, like I had no fucking clue how much it was going to be. But now that I see it all, I'm like, fuck, what do I do first? Um, like I, I'm unsure of like where to start sometimes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, it's, uh, I mean, it's, it's all right. I just like trying to do as much as I can every day. Yeah. Fluxuates. Some days it's like 12 hours. Sometimes it's zero hours. Have you tried to keep like the fitness that you got during like the boxing period? I'm trying. Yeah. I'm still like hitting the gym and stuff. I still like have a punching bag in my garage and all that. Um, I'm trying to keep up with it because it's nice. Like, because I, that was like a thing I could work towards. I will never. be that fit ever again in my life. I've decided that was my fucking P. Because I had a thing to work towards.

And now it's like, well, am I gonna do that for me? No. You're not gonna fucking do five days a week, two hours. Yeah, no. Yeah, that was my, so I'm like trying to maintain it as much as I can. Yeah, props then. I mean, I couldn't even do. I would definitely relapse to like pizza. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

I relaps mid fucking training. We're like, coach food, I fucking drink. I didn't even get to the training. I'm just like, in Charleston relapse it. Yeah, the food is all right. You're kind of burnt a lot of calories. You're kind of allowed to eat a lot, which is nice. A lot of chicken.

Yeah, a lot of chicken. A lot of preparation. You know it's one weird thing that not a lot of people talk about that is like a preparation for a fight? You're not supposed to nut. Is that real? That's absolutely real. I feel like this is like a thing

that boxes have been doing, but there's no scientific. And their coaches have been just like saying it. I thought it was like a myth. But there's like no scientific proof that not nutting makes you stronger. Well, I was in the same boat. I was exactly in the same boat.

Okay, okay. How long before you're not allowed enough? He said, like, don't do like two weeks. Two weeks? I was like, man, I don't know if I can do two days, bro. That was about to say, man. And like, and I was like, like a week, I got it to a week and I was like, man, fuck this is stupid.

I did. And the next day at training, I was like very lethargic. And he was like, no, and I was. And I was like, Yeah. Open your hand off. These guys is the black light up. And he was like,

um, I was like, hey, is something wrong with my diet? Like I, I feel like kind of heavy today. Do you think it's like something to do with what I ate? And he was like,

hey, level with me. You nut? And I was like, how the fuck did you know? And so that, that, it proved a little bit. I don't know if it was placebo or a coincidence.

But I did not, uh, up until the fight. So. that was, yeah, yeah. And people I haven't talked to, like they were like, oh yeah, they told my coach told me the same thing.

It's like some weird fighting secret. Where they like say it and like maybe it would. You should prove it. I don't know. I should have fight a homeless man. Yeah. I'm not gonna nut for two more. And then the control test

by now. You're telling me that no not November is actually real. You really do level up at the end of no not November. You do gain superpowers off no not November. I mean, even

That's like a benefit. That's still a benefit. Yeah. Fucking Graham fuck. More like aggressive and angry. Fucking nut right after. Yeah. Yeah.

And I do it mid-fight. And I do it mid-fight. The moment you land there's being first punches, oh. That's what the ball guard is for. Yeah. Keep it in advice. Yeah. You're not nut today.

I just always thought that was bullshit. But I guess, uh, maybe there's some method behind the madness. method behind the madness. I thought it was stupid and then had a little proving. So, you know, who knows? I don't know. Was that, was that something that everyone did? Not, well, everyone had a different coach. But I found a surprising amount of people were like, yeah, like, Alex was like, yeah, my coach told me not to. Yeah. And like a bunch of other, so it's not just my coach being a freak and being like, don't do that. I want to see you somehow. Thankfully, it was everyone. I mean, you probably tell you fucking anything.

Yeah, I know, yeah, yeah. You can be like, dude, do not shit. Dude, don't shit. Dude, God. It adds to the body weight. It will drop your center of gravity. Better leverage on punches. Because of a boxing code,

I feel like they have more authority than any of the code. He's like, I punch people, like, yeah, yeah, yeah. Dude, watch Mr. Beast, watch it like backwards. It'll fucking help. It'll freak you out, you'll just get it.

You'll just get it. You'll just fucking shaking. You're like, yeah. Yeah. It's all right. Be interesting to see, like, how many fighters actually followed through with that advice.

Yeah. Ask all the people. Ask all the people. Yeah, yeah, no, no, not. Privately, yeah. I'm gonna ask people. Privately, it's like, did you not? Before you just tell me.

Just like, the list of the winners and the list of the losers and it's just like, oh my God, it's true. They all not are. It should be a good scientific study. Yeah, I think they have done it and prove that it has no correlation. Yeah, I figured that's in,

like, a controlled environment, so it's hard to say. It must be a mental, It must be a mental thing. But you feel like you're holding back, so you're like, I don't know, maybe your body's like, maybe, yeah.

It's like something you look forward to after the fight, right? But if you go before the fight, then it's not gonna look forward to. What are you doing? If you can't not? Yeah, what are you? The reason why I'm standing in this ring

is because I know the nut afterwards is gonna be the best nut. It'll be crazy. Bro, you're like, can this fight just end already so I can just go nut? You know? Just hop me out right now. I need a knot

A-sack. Bro, I'm going for a round one knockout man. My balls are all. about to explore. Just knock me out, dude. Oh my God. It's right into the trash taste topics.

We always talk about shitting, pissing. Yeah, shitting, pissing and nutty. There's no bidet here, man. Fucking sucks. Dude, it does, I have a bidet at my house because I learned the truth in Japan. I did. Last time I was in Japan, I was like, yeah, yeah,

literally, yeah. It just, it makes pooping just saying to look forward to. Like, saying that you're like, this is great. For me, I hate having to white. Yeah, I hate having to white. I hate it so much.

I can't, like, yeah, and it's just too much time. It's inefficient, like, now with my bidet, it's like, shit and I'm done, I'm quick. And you know you're clean. And you know you're good, yeah. You never get that like, swarm pass later either. Like, it's always like clean. Yeah, it's good, I installed it.

Yeah, it's my top three best purchases I've ever made. Is it like, if you like modded your bidet at all? I feel like you're the kind of guy, be like, you know, the jet pouched is, so I installed a pressure, which. Does your bidet do surgery? Yeah, I'm like, don't mind me.

I just quickly check your prostate real quick. Yeah, I remember Lutterer just tell me all about us, Bidays. Oh yeah, he loves you. Yeah, he loves you. Like, how you got one of the fucking fanciest to-do. That man knows like the model names. Yeah, he does, he does. I thought he was just joking.

You got the 550? Yeah. It's like, good model. I just judged like, in my mind, since I was in Japan, you get to experience all the different levels of Bidé. If it opens up and then dries my ass as well, that's how you know it's like elite level bidet. That's really, yeah, yeah.

Yeah, that's like, okay, shit, this is not playing. It's got a hair dryer, built in it. Yeah. The last one's got a really good one as well. He tore his whole toilet out. It was like the full, not just the seat. Oh yeah, he told me about this.

He spent like $3,000 to get me through the day. Are he serious? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because we were talking about it and he was like, dude, it changed my life. It's like a cult. Like everyone who's got it. It's a religious experience.

When you have it, you can never go back. Yeah. And it's like it's got water warmer in there. And it's like, it doesn't feel that. It feels weird. Like when you first started. Yeah. Like, then you're over it.

And it's good. Yeah. Did you visit to many Rokans when you, went to, or like onsen, when you went to Japan? No, we didn't visit any. You should do that. I think we will. I think we're gonna go to like that.

Yeah, you have to. That's, that's one of the biggest things we recommend when you go to Japan. That's also another religious experience. Yeah, like find a really good one. Get that moment where you're like, boys, all right, we'll all look and we'll get over it. Yeah.

It's like five seconds. Yeah. Honestly, honestly, now I can't go back. Because actually, when I'm back, went back to the UK. Now I stare every time. Yeah. Because like, I went to the UK. I went to Bath, right?

which is like a very like famous spa city in the UK. So we actually like stayed in like a spa hotel. And they had like a pool and like hot tubs and public baths there. Yeah, right? And then you go in and I've never felt so unclean going into a public bath with trunks on. I don't know, man.

Japan has conditioned to me now to think I need to be fucking naked to be in like hot water. You get really used to it. Yeah, you do. I'm really fast. I'm really fast. I'm like going public bath to people. Like your friends, you're like, yeah, just go.

Yeah, it's whatever. You get used to it, I don't know. That's cool, I like that. It's like, we've all got dicks. It's like a bro moment, yeah. It's like a bonding moment as well. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You don't like specifically look at it,

you're just like, no, it's there, you know. It's in my periphery. Yeah, yeah. If you go with another content creator, you're like, well, you know, I know that we're trustworthy, because I can just tell everyone about how big that dick is. Yeah.

There's someone of trust. Yeah, there's a dick and in here and Audi. Yeah, yeah, you're like, how big of their balls? Yeah, I know. Let me just... Can you check for cancer? Yeah, when's lost time you nodded?

Did you not? I can tell you. It's lighter than last time. I can smell it. Oh, my God. That's pretty cool. Yeah, maybe I think we do have that in the itinerary. So, yeah.

It's a very fun experience. Yeah. Yeah. I think we always try and go to them when we're traveling around Japan. Yeah. That sounds cool. It's just like,

You get a really authentic experience of like an old Japanese woman, like forcing you to eat food that you don't really wanna eat. Yeah. Like, yeah, he got woken up, you got like rudely woken up, right? Yeah, I had like, there was a real kind

I went to where basically the wake up call for breakfast is 8 a.m. But I got stupidly drunk the night before, right? Because it's like a full on Japanese meal with like sake and everything. So it's like, obviously you're gonna go ham. So I was hungover of her shit because sake gives me the worst hangovers.

And it's like eight o'clock, she's like knocking on the door. She's like calling the phone. It's like, your breakfast is ready and I'm like yeah, all right, fuck off. And then she just, the woman just walks into my hotel room literally strips the fucking blanket off me like a mom. Like your mom is like, fucking wake up, it's breakfast.

And I'm like, dude, I'm paying like hundreds of dollars for you to do this. Like this is not okay. Because you pay so much money, they like, and a lot of the costs with the real cans is like in the food. It's the food. Yeah, yeah. And if you don't show up, they get like actually angry.

Yeah. They're like, you better fucking show up. And they'll nonstop ringing you if you're not there. Yeah. Oh yeah, the dinner's always amazing, but the breakfast is so 50-50. It's either fucking amazing or it's a chore to go through.

Yeah. And it's just an answer. There's no in between. It never ends. No, they're just like, all right, his 15 different types of radish with slime. All right, next up, we got another slimy thing. All right, next up we got some tofu,

so, and you're like, fuck, man, I literally just woke up. Yeah, I can't eat this much. I'm not a breakfast person as well. He neither. I don't think any of us are breakfast people Do you want to eat the moment you wake up? No, I have to force myself to eat like a peanut butter bagel

and that's it. Right, because you know, I feel like we're not designed to eat immediately when we wake up. That's why the biggest anomaly for me in LA is breakfast burritos. Dude, okay, breakfast are good though. They're good, but also it's like how- I eat them at times that they're not breakfast though.

Yeah, right, but it's like, how do you fucking eat this much food in the morning? Yeah, right, yeah, it's a, it's a lot of food. Breakfast, breakfast burritos is the same way is the same thing as like a full-will-English or an American breakfast, where you could, like, when you have it, they just rolled it, they just rolled it up.

Huh? They just rolled it up, right? They just grabbed all these. Yeah. I mean, I love it. I just, I could not eat it every, every day. That's like, fuck that. Yeah.

That's like two meals. Yeah. Great hangover food, though. Again, yeah. Great hangover. Great fucking hangover food. Yeah. Yeah.

I was so hungover after the crater clash thing. I had to move my flight. Oh, I can imagine that was hard. Yeah. There was a, There was a nice one at Charlie's house. Oh, nice. People got very drunk.

Yeah, it was nice. Because we weren't supposed to drink like before it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, I think Minks told me that was the hardest thing. Yeah, she's an alcoholic. Yeah. I mean, I like drinking, but I'd be like, fuck, gotta not drink for four months.

Yeah. If my boys wanna hang out. Yeah. Yeah. No drinking and no nutty? Yeah. Yeah. It's like the ultimate challenge.

Everything I love who fights. Yeah. That's fine. Like, that's like you gotta eat chicken every day, no nodding, no drinks. You're not November hard mode, do you? Yeah, yeah. You like season the chicken at least?

Yeah, yeah, I throw a bunch of shit on there. Okay, good, then. Fake chicken, yeah. Okay, good, I was like, fuck, if it's just like grilled chicken, just like plain. Yeah, no, I can't do that, yeah. It'd be like, fuck, that. Not got that religious about it.

No. But I mean, how was living in Hawaii? Because I've never met anyone who's live in Hawaii. It's quite good. Very different than the rest of the United States. Were you on the main island? The big island? I was not on the big island.

So there's the big island, which is the biggest one. Then there's one called the Wahoo, which is the most populated one. So that's like the main one people go. I was on Maui, which is like kind of a cross. Right, right. There's like lots of tourism is very nice. But there's also like a lot of nature. So I like live in the nature.

It's quite nice. There's a lot of weird shit that happened there. Like stuff that is normal when you grow up there and then not normal anywhere else. Like what? Like they're very, it's like one of the most liberal states, but they love guns. They love hunting, which is cool. Right.

When I would go to school, a couple of times my PE teacher was, like, I went to an outdoor school. Right. Outdoor school. Yeah, so it's not like an ins, because the weather's, you know, always like warm. Yeah, yeah.

So it's like, it's like, it's like multiple buildings. So it's not just one building. It's like connected by outdoor pathways. Oh, okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You made it sound like the school didn't have a roof. Yeah, no, it was in the jungle. Yeah.

It's like all outdoors. Road on leaves. It's like mud huts and everything like that. It's like primitive technology. Yeah, all those YouTube videos, it's just like. Yeah, it was, I would go sometimes, like, a couple of times, I'd go to my PE class. And my PE teacher would be, like,

skinning a fucking fish on the lawn in front of the class that he had caught that morning. What the fuck? It was so fucking weird. Like, especially in retrospect, it was like he's skinning a fish. The kids he'd like, he'd be like, hey, you want fish?

and these fucking like 14 year olds would have a quart gallon size bag of lukewarm fish on the bus home that I'm just this fat fucking thing of non-refrigerated fish on the bus That must have like spank up the fucking bus man Yeah It was a big ass fish

It was some cool shit We uh One time I was going to school on the bus And we saw a deer got hit by a car And it was just dead on the side of the road Yeah And I was taking the bus home when this dumbass kid from our class had picked it up

and was carrying it back home. He'd let him get on the bus. No, no, he wasn't on the bus. He was walking. So we saw the kids who were walking if we were on the bus. Oh, my God. And he just had it over his shoulders like a fucking freak. Like bringing it home to his family.

It just doesn't sound like the U.S. Like it sounds like it's just part of the U.S., but like it doesn't seem like it's... It's very... It's definitely different from here. It's not like the boonies or anything. Like there's electricity and internet. Of course, of course.

Yeah, we got houses. Yeah, obviously, yeah. The functioning missile systems. Yeah, we have missile systems, yeah. Yeah. It is just like complete, like very different culture. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, it must be like quite refreshing

then coming to the mainland US and you're like, wow. I didn't really want to leave very bad because it's an island. So like when you grow up there, you just want to get off it. Yeah. British people. Yeah. British.

Get us the fuck out of here. Yeah, yeah, let me leave. You grow up that? That sucks too, because British. is bad. Yeah, yeah, it's not Hawaii. It's not even like a tourist destination. Yeah, at least like, I got like waterfalls and stuff.

We can go to the beach and drink in the beach. Super fun. Yeah, we have, um, that's it. Yeah, yeah. We have the fields. We have castles and fields. Yeah, it's like, that's pretty one of the any cool things. It's like you have like so much history

and if you're into that, that's like really cool. Probably sick for if you're in a history. Yeah, yeah, like castles. There was like four castles where I grew up. Yeah. And that was cool. That is pretty fucking cool to be fair. Yeah, that was pretty,

And then like when you leave, like when I, actually don't live there now, you really do appreciate. You're like, fuck, dude, it's so cool how much, just sheer amount of history you have in every location. But outside of that, you're like, well, there's a Greg's there and a McDonald's. And then, yeah, yeah, well. Yeah, but at least you guys have that, like, you know,

because there are like castles in the UK that are easily like older than the entirety of Australia. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah. So like, we don't have any of that shit. Yeah, we have like, this building's been around since the early 1900s and it's like, yeah, cool. A lot of the castles where I would,

grew up, we're like older, like six plus 700 years old. Yeah, right? I wish we had that in Australia. We don't have any of that shit. Yeah. We just have like, he's a desert. It's like, sick. You can buy the castles, you know.

A lot of them are up for sale. I really wanna buy a castle, but it just feels like, what am I gonna do, stream? The internet's gonna be dog shit. Yeah. Oh, could you just a flage? It's just a flex at that point. I own a castle.

You know, you don't own a house. You don't own property. You're in a fucking castle. So I saw they were selling a whole, like, dry moat prison, uh, castle. Yeah. Oh, yeah. So there's a moat.

Yeah. Yeah. So, and it was like, kind of, it looked like sent from like fucking Alcatraz. It was like off the shore as well. And it was, uh, it was, uh, had, I loved how they were trying to sell it. They were like, it's a very spacious prison with 50 rooms.

Rooms. Requires, uh, renovation. And like the pictures were literally just abandoned. It's like, requires renovate. But it needs to be fucking torn down. And it was going for like a million pounds, so about 1.3 million USD. But it was like, there's a fucking moat.

Like, that's cool, you got a moat. How are you gonna get a moat in the US? Yeah, that's true. I feel like the moment you say moat, I'm like, I'm interested. That sounds really cool. Did you have to like bring down like a draw bridge to like get people across?

No, there was a bridge, but there was a dry moat there as well. Oh, that was the point in the moat. Which kind of, it kind of Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I think it must have been changed or something or I don't know why.

Yeah, sure. Damn, I really want it. I would absolutely buy a castle just for the flex. Imagine you own not just a prison. A prison castle with a moat. That sounds cool. Mr. Bees. Please.

That's like a Mr. Bees. I bought every castle in the United Kingdom. You could get a castle in the US, just white castle. So, I mean, it's kind of like that. Really, really different kind of thing. Not the same kind of market. Why would you want to do that?

Yeah, why would you want that? That's really rough. That's pretty gross. It's gross. You know what I don't understand in the US? Renaissance fares. Yeah, that's kind of interesting as being like when you're British and you see those.

Oh, you guys don't have those? Well, that's not history. That's just history for us. Yeah, but I mean, you don't, you're not living it. You ever been in medieval times? No, I've been to the pirate one. Really? Yeah. That's, my friend was like, do,

I'm telling you it has the best food in LA. And so I've got my hopes up and it was like the worst feeder ever had a man. Yeah, pirate medieval times. And I was like, you think this is, this is good? Like the mashed potato tastes. There's no beans on toast here. What is this?

Fuck off. American people love mocking British food. Because it's funny. Yeah, but your food is the fucking worst. What do you mean? We got like every country's worth of food. You go to the supermarket and the amount of like ready to go meals that look like they would poison you. Yeah, yeah.

But I don't eat those. I eat the other stuff. Because you're not broke. You have fucking ready to eat meals there. Which also way nicer. Like I'd actually eat them. They're actually pretty decent. Yeah.

What ready meals do we have? Like when you go Sainsbury's, you can get those curries that are like pretty fucking good. They're like two pounds and they're like really nice. Like freshly made. Carl's having a hard time of green.

Yeah, but he's tired. So his parents made the curry. That's true. That's true. We love curry, but like how do you, you know, I don't know how to make curry. You're like good curry.

Sorry, buy the one that's ready to go. And it's like really good stuff. Like a lot of the ready to go food is pretty good. This video is sponsored by Manscape. Woo!

Just look at all of these products they have. You can get all of them. Back to the episode. If you guys want to go get Thai food. I hear, ruin pear. Oh yeah, I'm delicious. My friend, Tanto, he's also Thai, he was over for a while, dude, he would make,

he was just making us food because we have him free house. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So fucking good. Okay, I'm like, cause I'm like so judgmental when it comes to Thai food because like, my mom was like, ran like a Thai restaurant. So I'm like, it's kind of like Gordon Ramsey,

you know where I'm just like, always the peak. Yeah, yeah. This is the kind of place that didn't take like, I didn't know what a credit card was until like a year ago. Okay, that's, that's good. That's how, that's how, that's how, because like, when I go to a,

Thai place and it looks fucking bougie as fuck. I'm like, this is not offensive. Now this place has everything. It's got the dying fish in the aquarium in the front. It's got the tas to take cash, you got the money laundering in the back. It's good, it's really good. It's called the Rune Parrots and like right over the hills.

Same with Indian food as well. Like if it doesn't make me a little uncomfortable to be there, then it will not be good. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Same one in Japan. Like I don't know how they got the vibe down. Like we found this really good Indian restaurant and it is literally just like copy and paste

the exact same thing you'd get here where you walk in, it's like, unapologetically, like kind of like, really bad decor. Yeah. The menu is like, like the pictures they took looked like a crime scene. It's like they threw the food on the table

and they're like, look at the picture. It's like, yeah. Like what the fuck is this thing? But then you're like, you're like, okay, you try it and you're like, this is the best fucking shit. Yeah. So good.

So same thing like Chinese restaurants, right? If you go to a Chinese restaurant and there's not some person with like a earpiece like shouting out orders in Chinese When you order in the background. You just feel uncomfortable. You're like, can I think? Duh, no, no, no, what the fuck?

Yeah. And then they always have to shout back from the kitchen. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And that's how you know, it's like, this is gonna be sick. Just aggression. Yeah, it's very aggressive, yeah. Yeah.

What's like the authentic Japanese, like if you go like abroad, right? What's like the factors, what's the factors you think that make like a... Well, if it's run by a bunch of white people, it's probably not gonna be good. Yeah, well, I mean, that's true for a lot of. The first thing I think of, the first thing I see

or I try to find, I'm like, is there a single Japanese person working in this place? Yeah. Like in the kitchen, is there at least a Japanese guy or girl in the kitchen? If yes, I have my hopes up. Well, a lot of the Japanese restaurants are in America and the UK are often run by Chinese people.

Yeah, yeah. Because they're just like, oh, well, you guys won't know the difference. Yeah, exactly. And honestly, they don't know the difference a lot of the times. Yeah, yeah. We went to a place yesterday,

and now I don't trust Google reviews in this city. You can. It was like 4.5 and it was an Italian place. 4.5 means garbage. Okay. You need a take that. What the fuck?

What? 455 means try. Every McDonald's is 4.5. Oh, because in Japan, if it's 4.5, it's like, it must have like served God. Yeah.

Okay. Everything is below like four. Yeah. You're looking for a 4-7, 4.8. Yeah. Oh my fuck. So we go in. Yeah.

In Japan, everything's like 3.5 average. And that's still a really good fucking meal. That's like toxicity place. That's like a crime scene. People in Japan, like, they complain at anything. Yeah. On the review.

Not in person. Got a confrontation, I'd rather kill myself. Like my warder arrived two seconds late, two stars. It's really, you should, when you go, have a quick read of the Google reviews. It's really bizarre seeing what they nitpick. It's really pedantic. Yeah, really, really odd.

Like, they'll be like, they didn't hand me the menu fast enough because it's really weird. So we went to this Italian place, and I knew I was like, oh oh, we walked in, and it was all, like, there was not a white person in the restaurant. And I was like, okay, I mean, I'm not saying you can't do it, but you're like, I'm sure there's no sure.

of Italians in America. I was like, oh no, oh no, that he ordered lasagna and it was cold. It was, we got microwave lasagna, unfortunately. I took a bite of it. I didn't know you can make a lasagna with zero flavor. Yeah, yeah. Like, I actually couldn't taste anything.

It's just like, there was like a baseball game going on, there was no music, and it's like, it's like, what are you, who are you appealing to here? Like the guy who comes after work and is like, I love Italian food. I want a microwave lasagna. Yeah. But it's weird, because L.A. especially has like a really, really good fucking food scene.

Because it's really competitive over here. Yeah, they got some, oh, it's the one saving race of this shit hole of the city. It's so good. Like, if I'm like, oh, I want Korean food. I live in Korea town. If I want, like, tacos, I just go down the street and there's a taco truck every 10 feet. Yeah. It's nice.

Yeah. I love Mexican food. If you see any street vendor, they're probably good. Yeah. It might give me food poisoning. They get me food poisoning. I still eat them. It's just like ice.

It's still come back. That's just the spice that comes with it, you know? Because like, yeah, when I come to L.A. every time, there's two things I look forward to. It's like Mexican food and Korean barbecue. I fucking, fucking love Korean barbecue so much. Have you ever been to Korea? I've not. No.

I actually, like, I've been to Korea once. And I don't know, I'm not going to speak for every Korean barbecue, but like, I preferred my, because I went to Korean barbecue almost every day in Korea. Yeah. And I actually preferred the Korean barbecue I found in L.A. I have heard that that's, like, it's very similar, if not, like, better.

Yeah, because LA or just America is all about indulgence, right? So you can really indulge yourself with like the meat here. Yeah. And it just feels fucking good, man. You like, you go to a Korean barbecue in LA, you're guaranteed to get a food coma afterwards, man. Yeah. And that's like, that's the feeling I want from a Korean barbecue.

Right, right. Yeah. And I think like the meat quality here is really good, like especially the beef and everything like that. So yeah, like, I'm not like... A lot of Asian countries import their beef and stuff from other countries. Yes. Oh, yeah. So, like, I know Japan often imports.

Japan gets most of their beef from America. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Well, like, Japan has, like, Wagyu beef and everything, but I feel like after living. A high high ending. Yeah. That's also, like, sometimes I don't even count that as beef.

It's so fatty. It's so buttery that it just, sometimes I've had Wagyu where it's, like, overwhelmingly buttery to the point where it's gross again. Yeah, yeah. Because, like, living in Japan, Wagyu is so easy to get your hands on. That's going to be every day. I mean, they sell in the supermarket. They sell it in supermarket.

Yeah, and then you have it once, and you're like, this is fucking amazing. And then the 10th time you have it, you just really, really... Like, that's just really rich. It's a really, really rich. And you're like, oh, I just kind of want, like, immediately, ribe.

I actually, like, prefer normal stakes over Wagyu now. After, like, living... It makes sense. Yeah, if you have it too much, it's, it's kind of fucked. Yeah, it's really nice, like, for a one-time thing, which is like, which is like the experience here, you have, yeah, yeah, exactly. You have one wagyu, you have one bite,

and it's that fucking amazing bite. Yeah. But you can buy, like, steaks of Wagyu in Japan. And that's like, that's like too much. Yeah. That's too much fat. But don't let the cow come for too much. Yeah.

That's still like, right before the slaughter. Did you not? Oh my God. You did it off to the waggy pile. You're done. It's game over, dude. Oh, yeah. You're not and you get to live.

Yeah. Just have to survive. It's right. It reminds me we went to like a supermarket here in LA yesterday and they were selling, Raw milk. Oh yeah, do you know about the supermarket? I don't know about that.

There's a supermarket called Aeroon. It sounds like- Oh, that's the like rich white-th century. Yeah, my friend told me about it, and we just randomly found it yesterday. Yeah. So I went in. They were selling a gallon of milk. Yeah.

Called raw milk for $20. And that milk is, is not treated for any bacteria. It's what makes it raw. Yeah. No, it's not, yeah. It's just unpasteurized milk. Yeah. Yeah.

So you're basically just like, like paying more for a more dangerous project. Yeah. I think people are just so obsessed with like natural here, like that to a point of like dangerous. Because isn't there that's a whole thing of like fresh water. Yeah, it's like, yeah.

It's like you have to get water that has not been like touched by anyone. Why? Why do I have to do that? Yeah, like what? It's fucking water. Yeah, you got the hydrogen infused water. Yeah, I got like hydrogen infused water.

It didn't even come in a bottle. It came in like a bag. A bag. Like an astronaut. That doesn't make any sense. It's just water, it's still water. Because you can't add an atom. It's still water.

I don't even know what it meant, you know. It's really bizarre seeing the whole, because I feel like this wasn't here when I came here like 2018, 19. The whole like alkaline water trend. There's a lot of that, yeah. It's like, why is this a thing? Like they just like to fuck with the pH

and it makes a whole new product. It's like we, I think humans have existed pretty good with this whole water thing for like, yeah, we've been doing it for a long time. There's other stuff that I could. I feel like there's other technological advancements we could be focusing on, but they're like, pro, I added some fucking acid

in my water. And now I'm like fucking plain of existence, like floating. Like it's like, what do you expect? Like I don't, this is such a bizarre thing. I don't know, and it feels weird how like, it's like, do you think I'm dumb enough to buy this? And apparently it's like yes. Oh yeah.

In fact, our entire business is made of built around your stupidity to buy it. Yeah. Like your thing didn't even fucking taste good. Yeah. Your thing tasted like sparkling water that had like, it's flat. Like you know how like flat soda tastes it tastes disgusting. I never have tasted flat sparkling

water before. That's exactly what it tasted like. It's like a it feels like a system wide distrust in just how stuff is made here. Yeah, which is reasonable. There's a lot of bad stuff here. There's a lot of like poorly produced food. Oh yeah. Gotcha. Yeah. Yeah. That's probably where it stems from. Yeah. It's like a health conscious thing. Yeah. What do you say is the best American food then? I mean, American food has got like a bunch of other countries. kind of stole. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You're fucking mocking.

Yeah, you just stole like every other country food. Oh, you know what? I still got it here. It's the thing. It's still I can go to Korean barbecue. We can do that in the UK. You just pay a lot of money. Yeah, and it tastes worse.

Probably. They're just, you know, the UK's just catching on. They're like, ramen. That's fucking shit. We can put spices in our food. We've been trading this shift for hundreds of years. And we never thought to put it in the food.

Whoa. America's like, bro, what if we put it? sugar in this. This is salt. Like you have to add sugar. Add sugar to it. They should add more sugar.

Add sugar and add oil. I like a sukiaki as much as the last guy, dude. Fucking sukiaki's amazing. Same idea, right? I do like sukiaki. I prefer Chinese hot pot, though. I think Chinese hot pot fucking incredible. You should go to, um, uh, fucking, uh, here.

Dintai, f f f fung. No, no, sorry, not Dintai Fung. The Heidi Lau hot pot. Sorry? Heidi Lau. It's Heidi Lau. If you guys have been- Oh no, I've heard about that. I think Rick took his to one.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's, we got a Heidi Lau in, uh, that was an experience. It's quite delicious. The one of the Chinese friend of ours. And he's like, you gotta eat the blood level, the, oh, I did not do that, no. Yeah, he was like, you gotta eat the cow intestine

and I'm like, this shit tastes bad. I didn't wanna be that guy. Yeah. Yeah, the blood to, blood tofu was good though. Yeah, he's made, he's made me eat a lot of questionable shit. He made me like duck brains. Yeah. That was interesting.

It all tastes good though. But Joey's, you're the guy who eats everything, though, right? Yeah. Was there anything that didn't fit your taste palette? No, it was all good. It was all good. I had, like, pig's intestines. I had duck sprains.

It was all, it all slapped. There's very few things that make me not want to eat it. Yeah. Like, I had the mudfish as well all the time mudfish. Oh, that one's kind of good. It's, it's pretty tough. Isn't it the catfish? No, no.

But it's like, it's like, it's like salted and fermented mudfish. Oh, no. It's like, it's like, it's like, It kind of tastes like if you got a piece of like, if you got a sardine and you kind of put it in the dirt and they just left it there for a day and you came back the next day, you picked it up and you ate it. It's kind of what it tastes like.

This fuck is, just want to keep fermenting everything. It's just too much fermenting going. Just stop fermenting. It's good. Who saw a fish and was like, nah, dude, I just want this to be fucking 20 times smellier, dude. Like, just eat the fish. You know what?

It doesn't smell enough like puk, you know? You know, he's like, I really wanna, really wanna feel like throwing up when eating this, you know? Yeah, most of fish in Japan, though, even, I don't, I don't question it. I'm like, don't tell me what this is, because if you tell me what you did to this fish,

I don't wanna eat it, but you eat it and you're like, that's pretty good. And then like, by the way, uh, yeah, we, we just left this in piss for five minutes, that's the dish. You're like, all right, okay, I wonder what the tangy taste was. Yeah, yeah, I'd, I'd Finozae once,

which is like, where they take a piece of, white fish or something and they ferment it for 10 years. Like wine. Oh, I think I saw that one like an idiot broad or something. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Archibor for her video. And I was like, I'll try it. Because apparently like one of the reviews was like,

when you eat it, it feels like you're being electrocuted in your mouth. And I'm like, is that a good thing? I mean, it's not even like food at that point. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Eating matter is like, it's a branding thing. Like, look, what we have guys. Because every place in Japan has to be famous for something.

Yeah. really important for some reason. Like, whenever you talk to anyone, you're like, I went to this place, like, did you try the ex famous thing in there? Yeah. Yeah. And most of the time, it's like, wait.

It's like no different. They're like, their rice is the best. Melian always does this as well. Every prefecture says that they have the best rice, but everyone knows it all tastes the same. Yeah. And also every prefecture has, yes, Malin, I did just say that. We just called you out.

Every prefecture has a specialty fruit as well, it seems like, yeah. And it's like, sometimes it just tastes. Sometimes it tastes good there, actually. Sometimes it tastes good, but like fruit in Japan just tastes good in general, I think. Yeah, you go to Hokkaido. Okaido is like where the best food's at.

The big island at the top. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. They've somehow perfected food. I don't know how they did it. Do you like it when they like kill the thing in front of you? Is that like, I feel like you.

It's probably, yeah, I love that. Yeah. I didn't want to assume that was your energy, but I got the kind of. That's definitely his energy. Like if they kill it in front of me, it's going to just be amazing. It'll be great. Yeah. Yeah, there's places where they'll do that with the crab where they bring it out.

Oh, okay. That's not so bad. You want this one? This one? This one. Yeah, and the octopuses. They'll fucking boil in front of us as well, you know. Nice.

Yeah. That's good. I don't even want to eat it. I just wanted to see you. Yeah. How much? I can't believe. All right.

You don't need to prepare it. It's not. Wipe that out. It's like, check please. They have these, like, these giant fucking crabs. The spider crabs, are?

Fucking massive. And, you know, I was at this place and you order a crab, whatever. And I didn't expect it. But they, like, this tiny woman brings out on like just a normal serving tray, brings out this giant crab for you to look at.

She's like, is this okay? It's like, what would I have said? Yes. Like, I would like one that is not this one. Bigger. Yeah, you're bigger. Bring out a bigger one. I want to see you struggle.

Did it not? Does it have to like fold out? No, no thanks. It's too big to fit through a door. Yeah. They fold in like the legs and they bring it. And it's like trying to wiggle and you're like, uh, yeah, that one.

That one's good. That's fine. It's like when they bring out like the wine for you to try, so you're just like swearing, you're like, yeah, this is the way to say no. I've never seen someone say no, this wine is not good enough. Yeah. Especially when you're like British, you're like,

this is too awkward, I can't say no. Yeah, I can't be like, no. Also they've uncorked the wine, right? So yeah, I feel too bad. Yeah, I've been to a dinner with someone like that. In my head, I'm just like, you dick it. So what happens when you say no? They bring you another.

They just bring you out, you bring you out another one. Oh. You can just, Of the same wine or? No, different, different. Like, different that they think would match better to your taste buds. And I'm just like, dude,

like you fucking know the difference. Yeah, you're kind of just trying to be like, yeah, I know the difference between these ones. Give me another one. You don't know. You just want to be a dick, yeah. You'd never do you for a beer. You're like, oh, that's really like that beer.

Can I have a beer? They're like, no, go, should fuck off. Yeah. But like with beer, you can just pour a little bit, you know. But if you're uncork of wine, it ruins an entire bottle of wine. Yeah, exactly.

You know. They can't serve that to someone else. No. Yeah. Have you ever been to like an ice cream place and you just have like that one guy who just tries every fucking flavor? Yeah, there's a limit, I think it's four.

Is it four here? Three, three. Didn't you think they would let you try everything? Yeah. That's nice. Well, I mean, a limit culturally. I think they'll try to let you trust, but like I feel bad after three. Yeah, I mean, is the vanilla really gonna taste that?

Like I don't understand. Like yeah, okay, sometimes they have some really obscure flavors. You're like, okay, I do wanna try that. But like, when people are like, can I try the, uh, the chocolate ice cream, it's like. Yeah, yeah. You know what chocolate tastes like?

You never had chocolate before? Like, it can't taste that different. Yeah, I refuse to believe this chocolate can taste so different to the point where you have to taste it and be that guy who makes the line weight. Yeah, come on. Again, they just wanna be the arseal. That's all it is.

I don't know, I don't, I feel bad at Costco asking for the samples. I don't even do that. Yeah. I didn't even know you could do that. What? That's the whole point. Oh, you mean the side samples? Yeah.

Oh, no, I never go to those. In Japan, the Costco, they don't really have that many samples. Yeah. And I took a didos and Emily to the Costco, and they were like, where's the samples? And I was like, ah, I mean, there's some. And he was like, I just ate, I just had four shots of Red Bull.

I'm like, it was just free. It's a sample. It's a sample. It's free. I'm like, you know what Red Bull tastes like. You don't need a sample of Red Bull. I always feel bad. I never go for the samples because I always feel bad because 99 times out of 100,

it's something that I know I don't need. Yeah, yeah. So it's like, it's taking the sample, and you just pretending to be like, yeah, this is very nice. And then just their eyesight of like, you're gonna buy it, right? And I don't have the heart to be like, no.

No. I don't wanna see the disappointment in their eyes when they're just like, oh, okay. He was like, is grapes the only thing they have to sample? What about like the good food? I'm like, I'm gonna try it like a great. I don't know, maybe it's a good grape. There are two types of Costco customers. Yeah.

What do you want them to do? Like the first food they have. Yeah, right? The hot dogs are $1.50. Did you go and get that. Oh yeah, it's so good. Oh, oh, the Costco. 300 yen is it in Japan there?

Yeah, 300, yeah. They mug you off, dude, it's not $1.50. Damn. Yeah. With, in this economy, dude? Yeah. Fuck. Well, they're like, in America,

like it has to say $1.50. The rest of all, they, ah, fuck it, raise the price. Yeah, yeah. Fucking lucky. But like, you can get, like, whole fishes, like giant salmon cuts and stuff in Japan. Really fresh fish, really fresh sushi. Yeah.

Sochi, can't fucking talk. Yeah, it's really good stuff. You should go check it out when you're there. Your Costco membership works worldwide. Really? Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's funny as funny. Yeah, it's funny.

When I moved to Japan, I thought, and I was asking, like, locals where to go. I thought people would like be recommending, like, you know, really local sports, underground places, cool restaurants. And literally nine times out of ten, people were like, you know, you've been to the Costco here? Dude, you've been to the Costco here?

No, you've been to the Costco or have you been to the IKEA? Oh, dude, we do that here. Not to go furniture shopping, but for the food. Yeah, yeah. Food just sounds like you. I don't like the food at IKEA. You like the food at IKEA? I think a meatball is pretty good.

Okay. It's a fucking meatball. Like how, I mean, you can't really fuck up a meatball. You're shopping. It's an experience. You can't shop Andy. It's an experience, yeah.

I love how we noticed yesterday, we were pushing the cart around. I was gonna say trolley. Yeah. I was glad you caught yourself. Yeah, fuck too. Yeah. Can't people.

Without a British, fuck dude. And it had a cup holder. Oh yeah. I think someone. God fucking bless America. Yeah, yeah. I can't put my drink down for like 10 minutes. I can't make sure I'm fucking.

Yeah. Sipping on my big gulp while I'm showing. What if I have a fucking soda that I don't mean, I'm drinking, man. I don't want to leave that in the car. Do you fair, everyone always has a Starbucks at all times. Oh yeah, Starbucks is real big. You ever look up a map of Starbucks this year?

It's crazy. People are always drinking a Starbucks. Yeah, can't put it down. I gotta go to the store, pick up my groceries while drinking a Starbucks. Yeah, sometimes they have Starbucks in the grocery store. They had that in the grocery stores. I was like, what the fuck?

Yeah, quite good. I mean, yeah, I'm not really a big fan of that. I like that they have food, though. It's like a decent. You should check around in Japan. Yeah. It's, I think Starbucks is shit everywhere else. I'll be going a lot of places in Japan.

Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Is it good though? Because I think... In Japan, yeah, yeah, it's fucking good. I think it's good, but I also, part of me is just like, is it just because most other coffee places in Japan suck? Yeah, there's that, but I think just like, by itself, it's a good coffee.

Yeah. Don't go to, don't go to Dothor. That's like, don't go to any coffee places that's not stuff. coffee places that's not Starbucks. Yeah, yeah. You're, Tully's not okay. Tully's shit.

Do you know abroad in Japan? Yeah. So one time we were at this place and he was like, Chris was like, it was about Tali's. He was like, I'm telling you, they've the best beef stroganov I've ever. And I was like, really?

And we both ordered it and we were eating it. You know when you, you're like telling your friend like, dude, this is amazing. And then you eat it again, you're like, ah. Yeah. That crippling embarrassment of like, Yeah, it's like when you say this is such a funny YouTube video.

Yeah, yeah. He was just, I've never, because he's such a, he's so reluctant to admit he's wrong. Yeah. Yeah. So he was like, it's not as, as I remember. He was like, he was like, could we go eat something else? Yeah, it was really bad.

At least he didn't do the thing where it's like, well, it's because we're in this tollies. Like the other tollies. I think he, he was like, knew I was not gonna, I was going to be like, fuck off. Yeah, absolutely not. This is a chain. There's no fucking way

this isn't standardized and this tastes like shit. Because they're so skimpy with beef sometimes and beef dishes in Japan. Makes sense, yeah. Yeah, because they don't have as much. It's like three pieces of beef.

It was, it was barely a strong enough. It was a sauce with mash. Yeah. I don't know what the fuck it was shit. It was garbage. What is your go-to convenience store meal? Like, okay, when I was in Japan the first time, or I only went to convenience stores

and the chicken was the best fucking thing, it was the best convenience store chicken I ever had. Which convenience store? How did you go to, though? Which one? Yeah, which one is important. Family Mart 7-11 or Lawson? I think it was 7-11.

Okay. That's my favorite one. Lorson's up their game on like everything. And I think Lorsons are just the best for everything. What do they have other than chicken and two other fried items? It's like, I highly recommend the beef bowl there. I fucking love the beef bowls in any of the places.

Oh, yeah. A lot of the dishes you can just take to them, ask them, they'll be like, they'll ask you something, just say hi. Yeah. And they'll warm it up. Got it. So they're warming up on the spot so you can eat it.

I know it's a little controversial. I think 7-11 Hawaii is better than 7-1 in Japan. Really? I don't know about that, but I just assume that's a big bar. You should go next time you go. Well, I put 7-Eleven in like Singapore is crazy too. Yeah, sure. 7-1 in Singapore's is lit.

Yeah. I think, like, honestly, it's because the Japanese convenience store standards are so high. Yeah. But 7-Eleven in Thailand fucking slaps. Yeah. Like, oh, honestly, 7-Eleven just slaps worldwide. Yeah. You get slapped.

Yeah, dude. Holy shit here. Yeah, we got lucky with like the Asian influence for the convenience stores. Dude, it's so good. You got like so much local food, like, Spamu's bees and like non-stuff beef bowls. Yeah, but like, but when I went to Hawaii,

like, because I was on Oahu. Yeah. And I went into a mall and like 50% of the stores are just run by Japanese people. Oh yeah. Oahu's like, I think it's the most Japanese. Yeah. Like I went into the mall.

They had like billboard ads in Japanese. Yeah. Like not even in English. And I'm like, I thought I was in a mall in Tokyo somewhere. Yeah. And you can just like pay shit. in yen and I'm like, what? Yeah. You can go into some stores in, maybe it was just that department. I don't know. Yeah. But like, I went into this department store and like 50% of the

stores you can go into that are owned by Japanese people, you can pay in yen. Shurakia probably. Yeah, I don't know. Yeah, yeah, it's a, it's, I think that's the highest demographic on Oahu. Yeah. Wow. That's crazy. Just like, I was walking around Oahu and it's just like, every second person was speaking Japanese. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's weird. I like, this lady bumped into me this old white lady and she like without even looking, she said, Sumo said, sum it was in. I was like, I'm from here. She's so used to it.

Yeah. That's crazy. Dude, yeah, at the combinis, I always go for the sandwiches. Yeah, yeah. The sandwiches are really fucking good. Yeah. Tuna and mayo ones from, uh, tuna and egg ones and Mawson's are one of my favorites.

Many stop, they have ice cream. They're famous for soft serve. Okay. It's really good stuff. Yeah, but I'm trying not to gain weight, right? So when you live in Japan, it's a different beast. It's like you can't eat there like you're on vacation. Yeah, right, right, right.

And like the food there, you need to be responsible about it. Right, right. And the food is healthy for you, but the actual, like, Japan food laws are actually really lax. Like, you can put whatever the fuck you want in a lot of this food. And they have a lot of adjectives and stuff and adjectives, and adjectives,

additives? Adetives. There are a lot of additives and a lot of additives. And a lot of additives and a lot of food, a lot of stuff that's banned elsewhere is in Japanese food. Yeah, so it is, there are a lot of stuff that is super unhealthy for you,

so you do have to be careful. Yeah, being like, it being easy to lose weight in Japan is like a misnomer. Because one, food is amazing there, so you're just gonna wanna eat like. I'm gonna eat a fuck ton of it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The portion sizes may be small,

but then you end up having six meals a day. So it's just like, it doesn't matter. Yeah. Everything's, oh, I'm gonna be surrounded by fish. It's very easy to avoid fish. Like, you don't wanna eat fish, it's super easy. Yeah, thank God. So yeah, whatever you like. There's more,

I feel there's more meat-based places than fish-based places. Oh, God, yeah. Yeah. But also there's more fish-based places than pretty much everywhere else in the world. Oh, yeah, of course. That's just a lot of food places.

That's why being vegetarian and vegan in Japan is, like, so fucking hard. Yeah. Oh, vegan? Probably very hard. I mean, it's getting better. Like, there's a lot more vegan places in Tokyo now, but I remember, like, five years ago,

there was, like, two. Yeah. I've never seen a gluten-free option. That's just never been anything either. Yeah, they're like, you're gluten-free for the cycle. Yeah. Just get good. We're like, you know, we're not like going

for natural selection here, you know? You want the cream of the grove. Lactose intolerant? Just tolerated. Just tolerate it. Just shit yourself and you'll be right. Fuck, I'm so hungry now. Yeah.

I'm fucking hungry now. Getting some food after this. Let's go. Comebini off this. 7-Eleven, let's go. Let me show you the 7-Eleven's here. You get hot dogs. You can get slushy.

Everything looks in the 7-11 here, like it's gonna kill you. Bocked, yeah. The hot dog has been on like the little roller conveyor belt for hours. Does anyone actually eat that? No. Like, I mean, not like,

it's not like the same way. It's like, let's go to the convenience store. It's like, I'm in my time of need. I need to eat food within 50 feet or I'll pass away and it's 7-Eleven. What about like those hot dog stalls? Because I always see them outside AX and like they can put on the streets

that cook out. Oh, yeah. And they look dirty as fuck. But no, I don't. I had one one year because I was like, I'm starving, I don't wanna walk all the way to a restaurant, it's just there, it smells amazing, I had it immediately felt sick.

Like not even, it's like, it's like, not, I was not, I was not even half. They had no refrigeration. Yeah, I was not even halfway through this hot dog and I was like, I think I'm about throw it. Let's go. Fucking God bless America. God bless America.

God bless America. That's fucking freedom right there. We saw a Budweiser case on the side of it said freedom and I was like, fuck, yeah. Yes. Big American flag. It's just like, like, yeah. Seeing how patriotic people are.

It just doesn't exist in the UK. It's like miserable. Yeah, that's kind of fun. It's great. It's just like, coming here, it like, you see it on TV and it doesn't feel real and then you actually see how patriotic people are, you're like, holy.

Yeah, that's hilarious. Yeah. It's so good. It's so fucking funny. Imagine loving your country. That's just, what the fuck? What? Jesus, it's crazy.

It's crazy. And anyway, like, is there anything big you're working on now? Anything you want a shout out? He's got a video coming, going. Come and going whenever you feel like it from now. It's five months. Hopefully, it's going to be tough. I'm going to go to Japan.

Then the Philippines, then Hawaii. Oh, you're going to do no work. I'm going to do no work. Fuck yeah. So that sucks. Yeah, I have a cousin's wedding in Hawaii. No, no convention in the Philippines. Oh, sick.

Yeah. So yeah, that'll be a minute. We should think about doing that. We just fucking work wherever we go now. Imagine taking a vacation. Imagine not taking your entire office with you everywhere you go, like, whoa. Having the airline lose all your shit.

That's fine, dude. Fucking all. Damn. Well, uh, hey, look at these patrons though. Yeah. On screen, do you see? Wow. Who's your favorite?
