Welcome back to another episode of Trash Taze. I'm Conn and once again, I'm joined by the boys. We are the boys. I had a stunning revelation this week. Okay. It sounds like an AI. Okay. Tell us.

Tell us. I learned how much water one shit takes. Okay. What would you mean? Enlightened us. Okay, so the other night we went out for Sydney's birthday, I had to be back by 1.30 because... A.m.?

Yeah, because they were shutting off. all the power to my apartment, to do maintenance for like three hours. Right. So I was like, I wanna get back, I was like, I don't wanna walk up a bunch of stairs like to the elevator. So I don't even, I've never even know what the fucking stairs are in my apartment.

They can do that, they can just shut off power to your apartment, yeah, I mean. They usually let you know like months. Yeah, there's, I do months in advance, but it's like, right, right, right, that's what it is. And I was like, oh, whatever, no big deal. Yeah.

And so power goes out, obviously, I don't even notice, because I'm fast asleep. I get back by 1.30 and I order Uber Eats, the guy arrives, so that was good. That was like the kind of hype moment. I was like, is you gonna arrive for 130? Cause I don't know, I'm not walking down those floors. I'll make him walk up the floors.

No, no, I'd be like, bro, just eat it. You can have it. Honestly, it's 1.30 a.m. I do not wanna get close. You get to the top of the stairs, and like, can I have a bite? Yeah, yeah, I'm like, bro, take some. I ordered some for you, bro.

Check the bag. Yeah. your name on it. So go to sleep, wake up and like at 8 o'clock or something, this, I don't even know I had this, there's like a giant like tannoyed speaker in my apartment which the building has access to, which I didn't even know.

I didn't know what this thing was. Because I'd seen it on my ceiling, I didn't know what it was. Some announcement gets made at like 8 a.m. And I was like half asleep, so I was not paying attention. By the time I realized, oh my God, there's a loud fucking voice speaking in my apartment, which is weird. I was like, oh, that's odd.

And then Eugene who was staying at my house at the time. I'm playing games with Mouse. And then he goes, Connor, Connor. I'm like, what's that? He's like, um, so what's wrong with the toilet. I was like, yeah, yeah, yeah. So it's wrong with the toilet. I'm like, oh, okay.

I dropped a fat dumpy in it. I was like, he's like, yeah, yeah. And so I'm like, oh, I'll bear back guys, because mouse is on the stream. And I was like, all right, what's wrong? He's like, yeah, she's not flushing. So I go to it. And I feel that like when I,

I pull the toilet thing, there's no water in the tank. I flush it. I'm like, oh, that's weird. And I'm like, okay, well, I guess let me, let me have a thing. So I'm going around in my kitchen to get some water and I realize the water isn't coming on. I'm like, oh, fuck, all the water's gone in the apartment. Right.

There's nothing. And then that's what I realized. That was what the announcement was for. And so now I couldn't flush the toilet, but he'd taken a fucking poop in my goddamn toilet. So now the only way I could flush the toilet was if I had enough water to put in the water tank and then flush it.

Now, I had to run a bath the morning before and there's a giant bath of water and Eugenia took a bath and pulled the goddamn plug out. So my giant supply of water that I could have used for things is now gone. Right. Because how the fuck I managed to flush this poop down the goddamn toilet?

But the problem was as well is that I also was needing a toilet as well. And I was like, oh my God, dude, I don't know what to do. I want to hold it till the water comes back on. And I was like, I don't know when the water's gonna come back on. And now I started to realize how often I needed water because I was like, oh, I'll just go wash my, I can't wash my hands.

Yeah, you can't wash my hands. There's no water. Yeah. And then I had like maybe a liter or two of water in my fridge. Yeah. And I could have done a few things with this, could have watered my plants, could have washed my hands. But I really wanted the coffee.

And so I was like, Eugene, man. Eugene, man. Sorry, dude. I'm making a coffee with the last water we have left. I'll make it a different kind of brown water, actually. I could flush the toilet. I could do some other things. I'm going to make a coffee with this last water.

I would come to regret this decision later on as I really needed a lot of water. But as the building had kind of like realized that, hey, people need to go to the toilet cell. They were offering free bottles of water to flush your toilet with. And I was like, great. So I picked up two, two liter bottles of water.

How long was this meeting is going on for? It was like all day. Fuck. Yeah, it's usually all day. Fuck. No, so it was like an emergency thing. It wasn't scheduled. Oh, really?

The water wasn't supposed to go off. Oh, right, it's an electrical thing. And I wanted the shower and do stuff. And I don't know if you guys get this sometimes. You don't, you're a night person. Morning shower people would probably understand the pain of not being able to morning shower because you're like, I just don't feel like my day

is starting yet. I just need the shower. I feel like I can't get any work done. I can't even start the day. I can't even, like my brain doesn't function. Sounds like a skill issue. At least even just wash my face.

I don't know why. I just need some water contact with my body. Yeah. I was tempted to just go outside and start fucking spraying myself with Fabrese to have some sensation of- Jump in the real. Yeah, like I...

But I was getting to the point where like, I could not hold my shit any longer. Right. And I was like, this is a dangerous game though, doubling up on the poop in the toilet, right? But I was, I was dying. And now a smart person would have told you, kind of just go to a conbeni and shit.

I was refusing to be intelligent at all. And I was like, well, because the elevator's out as well, right? Yeah. Yeah, so I was, I was kind of like, all right, I'll just, I'll just take the poop. I'll just take this poop. I'm sure the water. Do the D, think about it later.

I'm sure the water will come back on any time now. So I take a poop, but unfortunately, this was a fucking massive goddamn poop that I took. And now my toilet bowl was very much too full. So I was like, all right, we got to try and flush this. So I got the two, two liter bottles of water, so four liters of water. I put it in the tank to,

because as you know, that that thing fills up with water and that uses that to push and, you know, so I poured four liters in. I flushed the four liters, nothing. It didn't budge at all. I was like, holy fuck, how many liters of water do I need? You know there's an easier method that uses less water, right?

What? So what you, so I learn about this from like, you know, during like earthquakes or like typhoons and stuff like that, where the water might just suddenly be cut off. Yeah. What you do is a lot of toilets, the thing that separates the bowl from the pipe is this little flap. Yeah. And when you flush the toilet, the pressure from the water is the thing that opens the flap. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So what you do is you, what you should have done,

you should have grown those two things of water, filled it in with a bucket. Yeah. And then flush the bucket down the, the, the bowl all at once, because then that's so much more water going into the ball all at once, then it opens the flap. I don't know. I'm just saying this is like a normal thing. It's a Southeast Asia thing. A lot of toilets don't have automatic flushes there.

We use the bucket technique. I was like, what do you? Everywhere. It's a universal constant. When I heard you pouring the water into the toilet, I was like in the inside, I was like, no, gonna. No, wait, no. Not the place you poop.

Right. Yeah, the tank itself, right. Yeah, yeah, that's not how you're supposed to. No, no, no, you get a bucket and you just pour it in the place you poop. And you just. Oh, I did that too. but it was too much. How big was your shit?

It was two people's shit. And my one was at least a 1.5 size. Like it was, it was a big one. And so now this is like, what would have been maybe like even a tough flush on a normal day. I'd become just way too big of a flush. Right, right.

And you know, and so, and now we're starting to smell pretty fucking bad in my apartment. It was just kind of like, oh my God. So I went down again and I got fucking eight fucking bottles of water. Which is like, four, four bottles, sorry, eight liters of water. Right, right, right.

And I flushed it again and it didn't fucking work. And I was like, oh. I think you just have a broken toilet. I was like, no, this is too big. It was too big. But it did flush some of it. So then I had to go down again and get more. And then finally I managed to get it going.

And I was like, holy fuck, I used like 10 liters of water to flush one shit. And now I'm, now every time I go to the toilet and I flush, I'm like, that's a lot of water. I just wasted. Like I feel bad. I'm like, I drink less water than I flush down the drain every day. Well, I mean like, I'm used to not flushing

every single time. Because in Australia, like, we're in a drought. Like, all the fucking time, right? So they actually teach kids being like, if it's yellow, let it mellow. If it's brown, flush it down. That's a, you know what I'm talking about, right? You don't?

Are I the only one? I've, I've... Joey's like to the only other Australian. Yeah, you know what I'm talking about. No, it's a meat thing. You're supposed to have my back. But that's how I was taught, because it's like you don't want to waste water,

because as you found out, you used a shitload of water to flush the toilet. It's literally a shit. I knew it was a lot of water, but I guess just visually having to pour that much water and to have one shit was like, oh my God. Yeah. Well, I don't think the problem would have.

So people must feel like when they find out, like first world people, when they find out like poverty exists, like, oh my God, you've They live like these? Damn bitch, you live like this? Like I obviously like I was familiar with how plumbing works, but I think,

I think the, the strat that you should have done is you should have not taken the shit on top of the shit. No, that was me, that was me being pretty gung-ho about it. And I was like, it'll come back on any time, and it didn't come on until like 6 p.m. Yeah, right. So I was like, this fucking suck.

Yeah, it was out all day. Right. So that was kind of shitty. Okay, like what's the longest? you've gone without a shower or a bath? Because... One week? One week?

I'm sure it was a long period that I can't remember. Right, right. Because, like, I remember there will be some points, right, where, you know, it's, you know, the water was working, but in England, we'd have a boiler. And, you know, for some reason, the boilers are always prone. Yeah, fucking hell out of it.

Someone takes one fucking bath and it's like, all right, no one gets to have hot water. Yeah, no one gets to have hot water. You can wait like two hours. What a shit system. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, so sometimes the boiler just doesn't work. And, you know, sometimes you have to wait a while to get, like, plumbing there.

And the plummetette's, like, either replace the boiler or fix it or something. So, you'd, you know, there would be, like, sometimes two, two, like a two week stints where I just would not have any hot water, right? Like, do you, are you okay showering cold shower? If I have no choice, yeah. If I have no choice, yes. Yeah. Yeah. Even if it's in England in the winter.

Maybe not. Yeah, because like, I remember that like the boiler would always, obviously, like, break at always, like, the worst points. And I remember at one point I just started getting used to it. And I didn't take cold showers, but I did feel like I had brought, like, let's say, the second third world country experience to England. Because what we'd have is we'd have, like, we just bought, like, extra, like, massive pots and pants. It would hit about like 6 p.m. And my dad's like, does anyone want to shower? And I'd be like, yeah, yeah.

I'd be like, I'd be like, I'm planning to showering about now. And my dad like brings out like the, we had like, we had like four like stoves. So we bring out like four massive pots start filling out with cold water and start like boiling our hot water for like the evening, which is what we'd use. It's got to be so inefficient compared to a boiler. Probably is very, very very very inefficient. How did people live like that? Oh, no, man. For me, with like a week,

it wasn't so much like I didn't want to take a cold shower. It's just we didn't have water to shower because I was out in the middle of fucking nowhere camping for a week. So it's like the water is very scarce because we're very far away from civilization. So it's like we're gonna save all this water. And it's Australia. And it's Australia.

So we're gonna use this water to drink. And so I had no choice, but to just not shower for a week. And then when I got home and I had that shower, I felt like I was born. I felt like I was born again. I was like, all my sins were just getting washed away if I'm not showering for a week.

Never again, though. Yeah, isn't it like, was it Johnny Harris that made a video where he was like, didn't shower or didn't shampoo or didn't wash his hair? Okay, okay, okay. Because I didn't know- If you went dreadlocks like first time. Yeah.

Because I didn't know if it was the science where it's like better to not shower or if it's better to not wash your hair. Well, I think there's a few things, again, we could be all lying and chatting out of our ass, but I think they're like, I think showering or at least washing your body

with soap every day is unnecessary. Yeah, because it gets rid of like the oils. Yeah, you don't need to, you don't need to shampoo every day either. No, I think shampoo they say you should maybe do like twice a week. But even then I think it's like contentious. I can't remember.

Yeah, it depends on your skin like, yeah, what is a sense of, I'm an oily boy. All right, all right, guy talk, guy talk, all right? How far do you boys go with grooming yourselves? Like, in terms of like, okay, okay, In terms of where? Okay, okay.

Okay, question one, question one. Do you shave your chest, your chest air? I don't have chest here. Okay. I have like three little strands of hair that it's just like, there's just like three little strands of my manlyhood just being like, yeah, you're a big boy.

You're a man, you're a big boy. I don't. Isn't it weird though how hair grows on the body and like, just completely different random assortments? Why can't we just grow like fur, like a monkey, like all over? What you mean? My legs are hairy, my arms are hairy,

and my chest's a little hairy, but like not much else, and it feels just kind of random when my body was like, let's, um, here. And it's like, at least the fucking monkeys were like, let's commit. Yeah, all over. Like, monkeys commit with having hair all over.

They were like, let's just get it all over. Like, why do this mismatch bullshit? Like, I don't know. But what are the types of groomed? All right, armpit hair. Do you cut or shaves those? Shave those? No.

I think I, I, I, someone told me that if you cut it, you sweat less. So I tried that because I feel like I, my armpits in the summer here, just go fucking faucets. Yeah. But I find that it only helped slightly. I think, I think the problem I have,

I think I remember cutting my armpit hair once in my life because I was like, okay, it's getting a bit long. It's kind of getting a little bit. Fucking scissors. Yeah, just like trim it. Yeah. What the fuck? You don't use a shaver?

Just the fucking shave. No, I just fucking. What the, I wasn't, you get a fucking barber to be like, you know, Let me stop. Bro, he's gonna agree two hours. I wasn't even in the shower. I just like went to my room,

got a pair of scissors and just went, bro, what the fuck? Do you not have like a body grooming thing? Not when I was in high school. Oh, okay, okay. Yeah, no, I was in high school. So like I barely had any body hair that I needed to shave.

I couldn't even grow a proper beard back there. So I was like, okay, you know, it's kind of getting long and annoying. So I was just like, maybe just go half, right? Yeah, yeah, so that it's out of the way. Yeah. Problem is, and this is the same problem when you shave your genital area,

is that there's a point where it gets really fucking itchy. And it gets so annoying. So like after a while, like the new hair is starting to grow and then this it's like itchiness just comes and it's like your armpits are just constantly itchy. So you just turn into a fucking monkey, you're just doing this the whole day? That's why I never shave like all the way.

I don't like, I don't go right to the skin. I always leave like a little bit. But I mean like I recently discovered the power of like shaving your armpits as well. And I've just realized how much easier it is to get deodorant to fucking stay. Oh yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Like, I understand the effects of deodorant now. Like anime fans, anyone who goes to convention, maybe this is a fucking life hack. They don't know what deodorant is. Because, you know, sometimes when I was like a teenager, I'm like, my armpit hair was like really, really long, no matter how much deodorant I would spray on there, or no matter how much I would shower.

For some reason, there would always be this, like, fucking lingering smell there that I could never get rid of. Yeah, because when your hair is long here, you're basically just putting deodorant on the hair. Yeah, you're basically putting deodorant and the sweat just sticks to the hair as well. Yeah, yeah. And I love when we talk about this shit

because someone always diagnoses us with something. That's a sign of ADHD. Yeah, someone's always like, actually that's, yeah, this happened when I talk about the pimple on my ass as well. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like someone said what it was and I was like, actually, that could be right. Yeah.

They were like, yeah, I don't know. That means you've been, you've been taking too much a dick up the ass. Yeah, yeah, exactly, exactly. No, I mean, I feel like guys don't talk enough about, you know, self-care and self-grooming techniques. And I know just like it was literally like three, four years ago where I had, you know, I went a group of guys in England and we just randomly brought up this topic. And I was like,

shit, this is literally the first time I've ever had this conversation in my life. Okay. How every, okay, go. No, no, go. Sorry. Yeah, every guy is a different grooming technique. Every guy takes care of themselves differently. And sometimes just by talking about it, you realize, oh, I never shaved my armpit air before because no one really talks about this year. Does it not get itchy? Huh? Does it not get itchy? Not if, I do it with like an electric razor. Right. And I have, yeah, yeah.

I use electric razor. Yeah, like electric razor. And I have one specifically just for like my body. And it's just like a number one. You've one. I do I use everything? Use everything on my face. Oh, bro.

Wait. Wait, wait, wait. Dude, do you use the same on your balls? As the ones for your down under? Yeah, yeah. Well, because I'm washing, I'm washing my body. You know, like it's fine. It's just hair.

Not sure about that one, she. Oh, no. What are you, what, come on. It doesn't matter. That's like if you were like, if you got a raising, you just started, you know, going to town here and then you're like,

well, my beard is getting a bit long. You know, it's like. Okay, hold on, though. It's not like that. I'm not like, boop, boop, boop. It's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, one of the other gets done.

Right. And it's like, I never, I never do it. Like, I'm always, I've always washed myself completely and then I always like, trim, whatever it is. Right. But I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't trim my balls that often. Yeah, I was gonna ask, how often do you...

This would be, like, the perfect spot for a med. Yeah, yeah, this would be the perfect spot. So, yeah, that was the question I was gonna ask. Because I was gonna ask, how often do you shave your, like, genital area? Okay, so... Is it TMI? I feel like, TMI. Oh, I don't think this is TMI.

I just vibe it out. I feel, I just feel it. It's, yeah. Sometimes I'm like, fuck it. I don't have, like, a, well, monthly time to do it. No, I don't have that out of the, but, like, if you hash it out over a year, how often are you doing it? Fuck, no. Probably like once a month, I reckon.

As you can tell with my beard, my hair grows really quickly to the point. And I have like, I have hair growing on like really annoying parts of my body as well. Like I had to start waxing feet hair, right? Oh wow. And it's not like my feet were like furry. They'd just be like, they'd just be like.

Men got big feet. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They'd just be like odd strands of hair like randomly on my feet that would just get caught up whenever I put on shoes or, you know, whenever I just go about daily life and they would just get annoying. So one day I just got, got it like,

I said he has like a waxer. So I just like fucking just got it like, like got a wax thing just fucking waxing, just fucking wax all my hair off my feet. And I just, it's just nice now, it's just nice. Elina always talks about laser hair removal. Whenever I say anything, she's like, you should laser hair removal.

I think the Malianjuan's all body hair eliminated from the earth. But she's very quick to recommend it. I've never had it. I don't know who anyone who has. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Sounds like it hurts. I think so. I've seen videos of it, of people getting it done. And like, I think the ones in Japan, they literally get it.

Because in Japan, it's very common people to do it for their face. Because in Japan, obviously, clean shaven is like the look. And some people who maybe grow stubble, they're just like, just get rid of it. Yeah, I don't want to have a fucking shave this all the time. Yeah, I think in, in Japan as well, a lot of guys get what's called a VIO. Yeah. So it's like the V, the I and then the O. What?

Wait, where, where, way, way, way, way, way. The V is like your. or you know where the hair would be like in the front. Yeah. It's shaped like a V. Yeah. The I is your ass crack. Yeah.

And the O is your asshole. Oh. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. This is my first time I've ever. You're really? What are they doing with this VIO? So basically it's the areas that they're getting rid of the hair. Oh.

Yeah. So when you get, when you go get a lot of like hair removal, like laser removal stuff, they usually ask like, where do you want it done? And the most common one is a VIO. So it's just like, get, getting rid of all the hair there because you know, I guess the general consensus is no one really wants a hairy asshole. That's true. Yeah.

Which you know, I get. I just feel weird just searching up ass hair clinic removal, booking in a slot, pulling my ass down, someone fires a fucking, someone just fires a fucking laser beam at my asshole. I'm just like, God, like what am I, what world am I in? I've seen videos of it, it literally looks like,

kind of like a taser. And it makes the sound of a taser. Like they press it up against the scene. It's clicking a bunch, right, yeah, yeah. Is it like clicking a bunch? Yeah, it's clicking a bunch. Apparently it hurts. Yeah.

What is the deal with the hair on like your, the knuckles of your toe? Like what is the evolutionary point of that? No, that's the, that's the hair you wax off. Yeah, I know, I have that, but I have that. That's so fucking annoying. I don't know, I kind of like it. Because if I touch it, my old feels weird.

But also, what are, what? What is the fucking point of that? I have no idea. I'm looking at it, I'm like, this, sure, sure it's there. But I'm like, what is the evolutional benefit of me having four fucking strands of hair on my, like, big toe? Okay, here's, here's the question. Do your hair have like a growth limit of, in terms of like your body? I think so, yeah.

I think so, yeah. How long does it get? Where on my toes? Yeah, on your toes. I don't know like that. Yeah, mine's about that. And that doesn't bother you? Like, that long?

And it doesn't bother you? No, no, no, like that. Like, that, like, that, like, that you're big. between these two distances. Oh, like that. Oh, mine gets fucking long. Mine gets like that, which is why, which is why,

like I, which is why I had to start fucking waxing it because it just gets, like, it just gets, like, caught up in like, so many, like, different things. I saw, um, I, I feel like I always have to, like nose hair is super annoying for me. Noose hair is annoying thing. I swear I trim it. Literally one day later, it's back.

I'm like, how the fuck does this happen? Yeah. And so I'm like, I was, I'm walking in the train station and they had these little pop-up things where they were like 20 minutes, they waxed your nose and you've gone. Literally in the train station.

And I was like, man, maybe I should do that. But also, I've used those things that you see a lot in Don Quixote, the wow, hot wax thing. Oh, no, no, no. You like shove it into your nose and you let it harden and you just, you see those fucking videos where people pull

and then they pull the stick out but the wax is still there. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. I've done that before and it definitely got rid of it super fucking fast. But also you need nose head, that's the thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So it's also like, it's like ear wax, right? Like I wanna get rid of it, I just don't want the shit dangling out of my nose.

Like some kind of Frankenstein-esque character. Yeah, I feel like the nose trim has never worked good though. Yeah, you hear the sound of hair cutting. Yeah, yeah. And then I pull out, I like, I pull it out and I'm like, man, there's like, still like fucking two giant pieces, but I was doing like a full excavation. I feel like nose hairs. It's only work if you fucking tweez it out.

That's because that's what I have to do when like mine gets too long. Because like the trimmer's like you said, it never does the job I wanted to. Yeah, I tweez it as well, but I swear it comes back in like two days. I feel like I have like mutant strength nose hair that just immediately spawns.

You just have a spawn point in your nose. I think I do. It's so goddamn annoying. It's like you died, spawned right back in here. Maybe I should go and do one of those wax things. So it is but I also feel like, man, I kind of like having the nice air filtration and built into my body.

That's what nose hairs are. They help like filter out shit. Oh yeah, yeah. So I'm like, man, I also would like to have. Yeah, because I definitely have the problem of when, whenever I trim my nose hairs, the next day I'm sneezing like fucking crazy. Yeah.

Just because the nose hairs are kind of tickling me. But like, I know it's like, I know they do a job, but when you clean it, you just never take like a fresher breath of air in your life. No, I think it was taking freshness for like capacity. No, no, that's the thing. That's the thing. I'm like, I'm like fucking tangeroo.

I can smell things. I'm like, tangerow from. demons layer like, it's just like, oh. I wish there was a method where I could, I could like do something extremely painful where I'll never ever see the nose hair, but it can still be there. Laser removal.

No, no, no, no, no, it's gone. Oh, as in like, as I might limit the growth? Just the hair that always wants to poke out. And I could just specifically tell those hairs to fuck off and never come back. But the rush I can keep, because I'm fine, I don't care about having nose hair. I just don't want the ones that pop out

because it's like, oh, it looks fucking gross. Yeah. Are you guys ever gonna fucking enhance on this year? Yeah, yeah, they're gonna zoom in on our nos. Have you guys ever gone clean shaven down there? Yeah. Yeah, I've never, okay. Here, how'd you make it so it doesn't look fucking weird? I don't know.

It does, it always does. Like here's, here's the dilemma, right? If you have like a Johnny Sins monster cock, then it looks great. But if you have a normal size penis, it looks weird. Well, what always weird to me out is like my legs are like super hairy, right? Oh, right. So at which point you'd like draw the line.

You gotta do like a fade out. Yeah, you fade, fade. You fade, fade. Okay. So it's not just like, you know, it's not just like, oh, the lawn is completely mowed, but next doors is fucking like, you know, up to my eyes, right?

Exactly. You gotta kind of like gradually fade it out. So it looks more natural. It's just having like a patch in your, like, long grass in it and the rest is just like, fucking foresty. But that's what I mean, right? Is that like, yeah, sure, you know,

getting a clean shaven, especially in the summer, it's like, oh my God, my balls can breathe, right? So it feels. feels good, but like it's never gonna not look weird. Like, you know, could you, like, that's like if a tree was growing in the middle of the street, you know, it looks a bit weird, right?

It's like a little too flat. It's the same thing, right? So yeah, yeah, I think I've only ever done it maybe like once or twice, but other than that. Not often. Not often. Yeah, I've heard like the itchiness, because I've never done it personally. And it gets super itchy like three days later.

I've never done like the full clean. It's just like always, you know, just taking care of it, a little bit of trim here and there. But yeah, I couldn't get over just like the, How do I not make this look like my legs and my fucking balls are just completely different climates? The penis is gross. It's a disgusting part of the boy.

It is. So it's never gonna not look weird. But then again, it's like, did you ever like have to, did you ever think to yourself like, oh, I maybe should trim because maybe I'm going to like an onsen or something? No. I've seen the guys there, man. The Japanese guys definitely don't give a shit, man.

They don't give a shit if it's, hiding their entire fucking penis. They got an Amazon in there. Yeah, they got an Amazon. Yeah, sometimes you can't see that peepee. No. And I'm like, is it because the hair is long or because the pee pee is short?

Or is it both? Probably both. Probably both. So, you know, I've never thought about that. Maybe it feels like an onset in a different country. And maybe I'd be a bit more aware of it. I'm sure there's an evolutionary need to have hair for some reason.

I'm sure there's a reason for it. Yeah. There's always a reason for everything. Yeah. Do you think guys should wear makeup? Don't care. Yeah, I think if you want to wear. Whatever the fuck you want to do, man.

I mean in Japan especially, there's been like a massive trend in the past couple of years of guys wearing like very light makeup. But like, you know, fucking people on TV have been wearing makeup for decades now, right? So it's like it's no different. I feel like if you care whether or not people wear makeup, it's like what are you, what's so boring in your life that you have time to waste caring about this?

Yeah, no, I mean like I started wearing makeup like, makeup like on and off every now and again. I've done, I've like been doing it less just because I haven't really had time in the mornings, but I remember I guess like. Or what kind of makeup? Yeah. Talking like lipstick or? No, no, no, no.

Just like very light makeup. Most of it was just to fucking hide. Bags? I mean, I'm a bag, man. I got so many goddamn bags under my eyes. Yeah. Yeah. Basically it's, it's just like I, because I was born of like bad bags under my eyes.

A lot of it's genetics. Because like one of them, one of the, I think all three of us have. bags under our eyes. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Because you can do, you can get rid of it, right? With like surgery or some shit?

Yeah. It's, it's, I've looked at the effects and it, it's, it always gets rid of the bags, but I have like bad coloring under my eye as well. And like throughout my entire, I think we've talked about this briefly before where my entire life, it's a genetic thing where I just look like I have really dark under eyes. And it does get better if I get more rested. But even if I'm like fully rested, have the best night sleep in my life, I'm still gonna have some kind of like dark coloration on my eyes.

Why does it happen? Sorry? Why does that happen? There's genetics. But like why does getting less sleep just turn your face looking ugly? I think it's because your eyes get sunken, right? Is it?

I have fucking... Something like that, I think. Yeah, I'm not sure exactly what the reason. Some of this do of like, I guess the blood flow to your eye kind of like area as well. Yeah, so like for months I, I've basically looked up every kind of like, let's say, cream or, you know, morning routine.

You could put like eye packs. Oh, yeah, yeah, literally I did like ice packed. I put cream on it and, you know, especially since I started showing, that was around the time where I started showing my face more and more often on camera. Yeah. It was, you know, it was something I was trying

to be a little bit more aware of. Yeah. And like, I've been used to this for my entire life. I've just got on the comments from my friends or families, oh, you look like you need to get more sleep. You should get more sleep. And then, you know, extrapolate that to like every fucking video I'd be in on YouTube comment.

And then one day I was like, I was like, Sydney, this can sound strange, but do you have any like recommendations of like how to like hide your eyebags for using makeup and shit? Because she also does have genetically like bad eyebags like me. Yeah, feel sorry for a kid man. God fucking down.

Your kids are gonna be like, fucking down here. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's almost up. Yeah, I mean like, so, so, so, One day she was just like, oh, let's just, let's try some, you know, very, like, very, very light makeup, just like high dry bags. And it was just like a fucking night and day kind of thing. I just started wearing it. And then for like a full on year, I just got no comments about my eyebags. And it's not like, it's not like it really, really bothers me.

It's just like, it was just a nice not just not having to like deal with those comments. Yeah, for sure. Having to explain for the millionth time. No, I am getting enough sleep. Mom and dad. I am getting enough sleep. I slept 12 hours last night, I'm good. I just, sometimes on camera, you just look at,

you just look like you just got hit by a truck. It's also sometimes just like, in the case with like a video, it's just like a lighting issue. Sometimes just like the bad lighting just like enhances the bags way more because of the shadow it creates. Yeah, lighting is a big, yeah, yeah, exactly.

So it looks, sometimes it just looks way worse on camera than it actually is. Do you guys clean your ears as well often? Because I know you're not meant to. Never, never. Because you went to the air cleaning clinic, right? Did you feel, Did you feel good afterwards?

No, I didn't like it. I didn't like it at all. I thought it was disgusting. I actually do it like once every couple weeks. Just because like I, I don't know why, maybe it's genetics or whatever, but like I, my ears produce a fuck load of wax. And if it gets left, then it, sometimes,

I've had just like straight up ear blockages before because of the wax buildup. So ever since I was a kid, like my mom used to like do that whole anime thing of like, I would like, like, lie down on her lap and she would clean it out for me. I don't know, I should, you know, I go when I go shower, I just soap up, you know, I get around this area, get in there a little bit,

but I'm, you know, I never put my- You don't go deep in- No, no, like if my, if like, you know, I just do like that, like that kind of thing, right? I'm like, all right, that's enough. Like I wouldn't, I don't- For most people, that's enough. Yeah, like I don't know,

I don't put a fucking, like a bidet inside my asshole and clean it. Why would I do it my ears? You know what I mean? Like, you know what I mean? Like, I'm just doing the rim. Yeah, just doing the rim. Just clean the rim, bro.

Like it's, dude, I don't know if- I don't know if it's because my mom also did the ear cleaning thing ever since I was a kid. I felt an Asian thing for sure. It must be an Asian thing. But like, because I've heard from like a million different places that you shouldn't use cotton buds to like clean your ears. Oh, that's what it says on the goddamn packaging.

Yeah, it's what it says on the goddamn packaging. And you know, doctors, ear doctors, health experts, obviously know what they're talking about. But God fucking damn it, sometimes there is just an itch in there that I just cannot clear out. I think that it's in your head though. Okay. I've never had.

No, it actually is. It's literally in our ear. No, I refuse to believe there's an itch in there. I've never had this itch. You've never had the it? I've never had an it. I've had it. I think it's all in your head, literally.

It probably is, it probably is the mental thing, but like, if I don't clean my ear for about like four days or something, it's definitely mental. It like comes. It comes and it's, it's impossible to like get rid of. I've tried like other methods, because, because, I've read some articles. Have you done like the popping technique? I don't do that.

What the fuck is the popping? Sometimes like if I really wanna like, you know, get rid of that itch and deep in my ear, but I can't be bold to like, you know, grab the thing to like go in there. I just like kind of pop it like this every now and it like it like, it kind of helps. It's probably just placebo, right?

It's all in my head apparently. Yeah, this is all in your head. I think there's actually an it's in your ear. I think you're dreaming of it, but I think what is an it? No, yeah, I mean, what is an it? Resource music. What is even an it?

Oh, I'm getting it. I'm itchy or am I. Yeah, yeah. But sometimes like I try, you know, just, what they, what doctors recommend is that you need earwax so you should just like rinse it out and just get a towel and just like rinse, you know, just like a light-

Yeah, just clean it, you know, that that itch is there and I cannot get rid of it without- We think about having an itch in there now. Sorry? Now I'm feeling like there's gonna be an itch because you keep talking about it. Did you, but did you ever have like problems with your ears when you were a kid?

No. Because I used to get ear infections all the time. when I was a kid. Oh, really? Yeah, I've had multiple ear infections in the past, so I think that's just, like, kind of fucked up the inside of my ears for the most part.

Yeah. And also I have like very light tinnitus as well. Fair enough. From going to too many concerts, so that probably doesn't help. I've never really gotten sick ever. Really? Like an infection.

Ear infection isn't really like, in all this. Ear infection is weird, because I've only had like one ear infection once in my life as a kid. And because, like, it's an ear infection, that's where your balance sensors are, as well. Yeah.

And it was just so weird not being able to walk. Yeah. You know? And just, it feels like you're dizzy all the time. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like you,

you stand up and you're like, I don't know if I'm up or down right now. And it was, I've never experienced anything like that in my life where I literally felt like standing up felt like I was hanging upside down. It's super, super fucking weird. But no,

like I got my, I got my ears checked when I was in Thailand because I was like, I was like, I, I don't know if watching all of these videos, like, made me a bit paranoid because I'd heard if you'd like try cleaning it with cotton, like earbuds, like cotton buds, that you like push the wax and I was like, I want to make sure I'm not doing that. And yeah, I got it checked and apparently like, I'm hoping this wasn't the it, right? Because they looked at my ear. And I don't know if, like, when you got your inner ears cleaned, right?

That was obviously like, did they take anything out of your ear or did they just check it? A lot of out. Oh, really? I do not feel comfortable having an object that deeply into my ear. They went, he went so fucking deep in my ear. Yeah. I mean, I like basically was on the, like the moment he took it like the shit,

shit out my ear, I just went to the toilet and I was like on the toilet like, like vomiting. Oh shit. So gross. Yeah. It was horrible. It was a horrible experience. Like I've nearly fainted from it because I was like, oh really?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. It was really bad. I did not like it at all. Yeah, there was like a single piece of, like a single strand of hair just stuck in my inner ear as they were like cleaning it out. And I'll just never forget the feeling of just like, like the ear doctor was like, okay, whatever you do,

do not move. And I was like, what are you gonna do? And she was like, I think I see a single strand of hair. And I was like, okay, cool, she's gonna, she's gonna, she's just gonna clean my ear, it's just a single strand of hair. Um, she sticks, she sticks like whatever she sticks in. I think it's like tweezers or something. And I'd never felt something enter pierce my ears so deeply that I could hear like every little movement of the strand of hair. And you, it's, it's like everything is like

bass boosted. That's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's kind of what it feels like. How are you not, how are you not laughing? Honestly, it tickled a lot. I was, I was, it took, it took everything, it had in me just to sit still. But holy shit, it was so, oh, it felt so satisfied. It's like getting a splinter out. It is getting like a splinter out. I don't know how long that was like stuck in my ear.

Maybe that's why my ears were like constantly. See, but now the question is how the fuck did it get in there in the first place? Could it could be like, it's a fucking hole in your body, man. It could be any reason. I remember when I was a kid. My, my, uh, one of my physics teacher came in one. day and he was like, yeah, I just got a fucking,

I got a fucking moth vacuumed out of my ear. I was like, I was like, what? Oh, fuck, I've had that as well actually. Wait, are you serious? But it wasn't a moth, it was a mosquito. Oh shit. Yeah, like, oh shit. Like, it was a mosquito that, like,

because you know, Australian summer, fuck load of mosquitoes, especially if you're outside. And I remember, yeah, fuck, you just reminded me. So like, I had this mosquito where like, there was a mosquito buzzing around near my ear, and I think I must have like killed it close to my ear enough that the dead mosquito went into my ear. Yeah. And I didn't feel it for the longest time. And then down the road, I was like,

oh man, it feels like something's like blocked in my ear. So when I went to the doctor, yeah, the doctor looked in and she's like, yeah, there's definitely fucking something in there. And she pulled out like a dead mosquito. Oh. And I was like, and I was like, ah, that's probably what it was. Oh, that's like, that's like that meme of you swallowed 10 spiders in your sleep. Yeah, right? 10 spiders get in your ear. Yeah.

God, yeah, that was traumatic. Top 10 reasons why mosquitoes are fucking asses. Why did they do that thing when you're like sleeping and they just like, it's always the ear? Yeah. Like you can hear, you can hear a mosquito just buzzing around than every soft it or just come right by your ear. I don't think I've ever been bitten by a mosquito.

You've never been bitten by a mosquito? Maybe you're just not aware of it. I've never seen like a bite on my body from anything. You also have rarely to go to country. where mosquitoes are. That's true. Like we don't have them in the UK. Yeah, mosquitoes don't exist.

Go to the Inocca here during the summer, you'll definitely get bitten. Yeah, whenever we're out together, you're like, I'm getting bit bitten by mosquitoes. Yeah, because I'm tanking it all for you. Yeah, and I'm like, I'm like, really? I never get bitten by anything ever. I've noticed even like, I don't know what it is,

something about my blood, maybe it's like my blood type. But like in Thailand, he has a mosquito agro skill. Oh no, yeah, I have- Over here. I have mosquito agro. So like, every time we go to Thailand, even if a mate like normally gets bitten by mosquitoes as soon as we hang out together, they just never get bitten because I like tank

all the mosquito bites for them. Well, isn't it like some people as well, they get bit, but some people's skin doesn't react to being bitten, other people's dot. Yeah, same with bedbugs as well. Yeah, yeah, some people get the red bumps, some people don't. Yeah, I get bit, maybe I get bitten,

I just don't get the bumps. I used to get them really bad. What, bed bugs? No, no, no, mosquito bites. Like I had, maybe it's because the mosquitoes in Australia just OPE, but like, yeah, I used to have, where like I don't even feel the bite.

I might be like outside in my backyard just like doing something during the night. And then the next morning I'm like, what the fuck is this giant red patch? I wonder if they can tell my blood is shit. I don't know if that's why. That's a good thing. They land and they sniff and they're like,

nah, this shit. Yikes. Yeah, because I must have like fucking sugar, sweet blood or something because. Maybe you got a right concoction of vitamins. Yeah, because like I'd been told when I was a kid, I was because like you live abroad. So that's why you get bitten and like the order of growing up,

the more I just realized not, even if there's a foreigner next to me, it doesn't make a difference. I'm still the only one getting fucking bit. It doesn't matter how long I live in Thailand, I still get like the same amount of bites. I think it's got to do with like a number of things, like your blood type is one thing,

but also like how high your blood sugar is and like just all that kind of stuff just thrown together. Because in Japan it's like, oh, if you have a orgata, like, oh blood type, you're more likely to get bitten by mosquitoes. I do think I actually have over, but actually. I, weirdly, I don't know what my blood type is.

I feel like I should know, but I- Do you know what your parents' blood type is? No. Who knows? Wait, hold, you literally have- Checkup every six months, Connor. Does it say it on the paper? Yes, it does. Also, you have a blood condition,

you should probably be the one person- Like, at the top. Really? Well, when they take the blood, they're not gonna be like, oh yeah, so we took your blood, we don't know what type it is though. Wait, wait, wait, wait, I only saw, like, I never saw a blood type on it.

Yeah, it has it. Mine says O. This is like just a letter O. Yeah, it's either O, A, B or A. Oh, maybe I just didn't notice it because it was under like all the other A's. Maybe it was like, yo, I scored an A in blood, man. Fuck yeah.

Honestly, pretty, pretty just, because it's pretty in Japanese. I'm gonna just saw an A and I was like, oh, okay. Oh, that's good, right? I got good blood. Wait, is it blood type? Wait, no, because you get tested on your blood as well, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. The quality of your blood.

Yeah, yeah. So maybe I just thought, I don't know, wait. I mean, if you're getting tested on the quality of your blood, they'll probably tell you what your type is, You're saying that it's definitely there. I'm 100% short time. There's no, there's no reason for it to not be there.

Yeah, I get, I just, I guess I never looked up. I just never really noticed. Yeah. I probably should notice, huh? Yeah, I mean, considering you have the blood conditions. Yeah, true, but I mean, I get a, I get like a factor injection, not blood injection normally, like a factor eight injection. It's not like, what's that?

It's the stuff that I'm missing. I normally don't need a blood injection. I usually take to stop the blood, from, like you're gonna, I can temporarily have something in my body that will act normal. Yeah, so I don't know, most of the time I don't need a blood transfuse

or anything like that. I just need the missing component, which they can- But wouldn't they need your blood type of that? No, no, not for that. Oh, really? No, because it's not everyone's blood. Oh.

It's just the thing I'm missing. Right, right. So that's why I think I never had to learn it that much. Hopefully, touch, touch with that you never. You should probably know just in case. Yeah, yeah, just, just in case. Yeah, I had a medical brace at one point and I lost it.

I just never got another one. So I just hate bracelets too. I just think they're annoying. Braceless, but you wear watches. Yeah, but it's different. Is it? Is it? What's a medical bracelet?

Like, just tells you like, hey, where my treasure's hidden, I die. That's the one piece location. You don't see a medical bracelet? I've not seen anyone wear one. It's like a white band, right? It's like a, yeah, it can be white, it can be anything really.

It's like engraved with information. Right. They'll only check your engraved. So it's actually like, could be like a metal thing and it could be like saying like, hey, this is what he has. Just so that like.

He's a cunt. Oh, you're a sick, can't be like. So it'd be like, hey, here's hemophilia, this type of hemophilia. So they'd know right away, they're like, oh, we gotta get some of this stuff. Right, right. You know, find out.

Yeah. I guess, I don't know how, I don't know how fucking. Probably needed in America. It has your like insurance on there as well. Hopefully. No, I don't know about that. I think it just has like general information that the doctors need in case they need

to perform any kind of emergency thing on you. Mine just had, it just said like what I had. Just so I guess so it's much quicker for them to figure out what to do. Yeah, and to get the stuff they need. Okay, okay. So I did have that, but I lost it. Yeah, you should probably get that.

Yeah, yeah, it's annoying to get one. It's kind of annoying. Yeah, but it also, you know, your life's kind of dependent on it, so. Right, right, but it's fine. It's like, you know, life insurance, kind of annoying to get, but.

I know there's other stuff you can get like, Some people have, there's other stuff. I know there's a technology, and I can't remember what it was, where basically it would just, like they could just, it would send everything to a phone. And apparently, I can't remember this.

Can you Google this or something? There's some kind of technology they have where they can instantly see everything. Oh. Like, and I can't remember what it was. Like an NFC or something? Yeah, yeah, yeah, something that you could have. I can't remember what,

it might have been a card that, like an NFC chip that taps and then it could tell. And yeah, fucking, these poor fucking, EMTs are like, would you get the new update for this app? I can't download his life-saving medical information. Say sorry, my 4Gs and I can't go. Well, I don't know, like, I'm, I guess,

I guess I'm kind of like, I'm kind of, not the same, but like, I have asthma, right? Rarely ever comes up, but I don't know if this, if I kind of just wield it away or if it's a normal thing. It's all in your head. If it's like a normal thing that happens as you grow older, but like I had asthma as a kid. And it wasn't like horrible, horrible asthma.

I would call it more like mild asthma. Right. At like the worst. But I would have to, there would be points as a kid where I would have to like use my inhaler, right? Whether, you know, I'd been exercising or a lot of the times it would just like randomly come about. I don't know what exactly caused it,

but something caused it. Um, I know this is like the wrong fucking mindset to have, right? But I was, I always saw as like a fucking, I always saw as a weakness, right? I, this, which is the wrong fucking mindset to have. That's a very like kid way of looking at it. It is, it is. It's a permanent debunk. Yeah, yeah, because having, having, I don't know how to describe having asthma and just having that hit of an inhaler.

Yeah, I was so jealous of those kids. I thought that was sick when they got to do that. Yeah. So, yo, you're doing drugs? Yeah. I'm like, dude, that's badass. I wanna try. So you'll give some of that.

But like it's so weird because like you take the hit and you go from like feeding like your chest is like congested and like you can hardly breathe to like having the clearest breath of like breath of air in your life. And I was just like, you know what? Every time, every time I'm doing an asthma hit, I'm admitting defeat. My lungs are stronger than this.

I don't know why I thought this as a kid, but I would like, it would only be. like to the limit where I would be like in pure discomfort. Because sometimes I'd, I'd have like a mild kind of like asthma thing and I would just be like, no, my lungs are stronger. My lungs are built different. I'll just breathe harder. I'll just literally breathe harder and it's like,

I would wait to push it to the edge before like I could like barely breathe, which is fucking stupid. That's dangerous. I don't recommend that. I was a dumb kid who was just trying to like fucking will this asthma away. But like for some reason, when I like reach teenagehood, when I reached by like university age, I just noticed that like more and more,

I just got like less asthma attacked and I don't know what caused it. I don't know if it's just part of growing up or just like my stupidity played a factor in just a body reacting differently to certain situations. Yeah, because it's interesting because like I didn't even know

that like asthma was a thing like that. I thought it was always just like a permanent thing where like the moment you develop asthma, you have it for the rest of your life. I didn't know it was like a thing that just like went away I still think I have like very very very mild as well I haven't had to use but it's not as bad as when you were a kid oh no no way no way like before I would there would like I could not

travel without my inhaler just in case um but I haven't needed to use mine like I still have my inhaler in like every travel pack that I have with me whenever I go travel but I haven't had to use it in it's I think it's coming on to like a decade well I haven't had to like use my inhaler um so So it's been a long time since I've had like a proper bad asthma attack. And I don't know, I don't know what factors played into that, but I just, I just looked back and I was just like, why was I so adamant on using the fucking inhaler?

I guess it's kind of the same thing as like allergies, right? Because like allergies are also the same thing. Because like, you know, I had fucking horrible hay fever in Australia and I always like, sore it as defeat if I like had to pull the tissues out in the middle of the conversation to blow my nose.

I'm like, no, I'll just fucking breathe harder. I was fucking do one of those, and I'm like, yeah, I'm good. I don't need that. But then I realize much later on that, like, doing the hard, disgusting, like, liquidy sniff is way more uncool than just getting a tissue and just blowing that shit out.

Yeah, yeah. But yeah, I don't know, there's, I totally get that whole, like, it's a weakness thing, even though it's not, like fucking everyone, like, so many people have asthma, so many people have hay fever, it's like nothing to be ashamed of,

but like, yeah, I don't know what it is. It's like something about you being a kid just being like, no, I'm not like the rest of them. I refuse, I refuse. I am a strong boy. I'm gonna get through this, okay? Body fucking listen to me, you can fight through this. You can just breathe.

Start being weak. We are the worst medical advisors. Oh my God, yeah. Hopefully, yeah, definitely don't listen to us to medical advice at all. We have someone with the blood condition who does not know their bloodside.

And an asthmatic who refuses to use his inhaler. Just give me the universal blood, I'll be alright. Yeah. The universal blood? The universal blood. What's the one that, oh, negative is that one that works at everything? Or is it A-B?

One of them works out. I don't know, you should be the one. No. Hey, hey, it's the doctor's job. So your dog, give me the universal one, the C-7. Yeah. Give me the best you got, Doc. Give me a top shelf.

Are you cooking or what? So changing topics, I went to Hakonai again yesterday. It's been a while since I've been to Hakkene. And for the first time, I actually like, I guess explored some of the more like, let's say, touristy areas of Hakonay. Did you go on the pirate ship? I did not go. I heard about this pirate ship. No, we went up to the mountain and like it just reminded me how far

like Japanese, like how far Japanese areas will push this one little thing as like a selling point for like tourism. Are you talking about the black eggs? I am talking about the black egg man. Those black eggs are a scam. They are scared. It's a fuck, okay, so like we got a hackney.

I'm me and Sydney. So we're taking like our friend Eugene there and me and city are very much just, you know we just wanna go and just chill out and just go to the onsen and chill out. And Eugene's like, no, we, I wanna explore. I've heard this thing called this like black egg that gives you like good health

and you have to travel up this fucking mountain to get there. And so- Sounds like the shittiest side quest ever. It's like it's like it's the shittiest side quest ever. So we we go up there and we're like, and it takes like fucking, it took like 45 minutes to get to get up this mountain

with all like the, because how can I, even though it's like a touristy area, if you don't have a car, it's still, it's pretty hard to get around. Yeah. Because there are no, There's like limited taxis in the area. It's a very kind of hilly area.

So what most people, what most tourists do is they hire, they go to their, they go to their onsen, and then they just stay, right? And then they just stay in that onsen for their entire duration and just relax. So actually like getting around to different spots is pretty, you know, pretty hard. So to get up to this mountain

to where like I guess there are kind of like, geothermal activity. It's a sulfur lakes. It's like sulfur lakes and stuff like that, which is, it's fine. I don't know. If you ever wanted to go to a mountain that smells like farts perpetually,

it's just like, that's the place to go. It's literally like going there, you're like, oh, I'm smelling Satan's ass right now. This is what Satan's ass smells like. And I'm like, cool, let's try this black egg that Eugene has excitedly, like, been talking about for the past 45 fucking minutes because I just wanna go back to this onsen.

And so we go there and we thought, I thought it would just be like one small shack or something that's up there. No, they have like this entire complex with just, it's like a two story massive like shopping center based around this black fucking egg. I'm like, what the fuck? It's a black egg.

Like that is like, that place is the epitome of milking the cow dry. They had a entire fucking museum there. Like what are you, why is this here? And in all honesty, like when you actually find out about how they make the black eggs, it's really not that impressive. All they do is they get an egg

and they throw it into a boiling sulfur pond for like three minutes and then that's, and then some chemical reaction turns the shell black. When you crack open the egg though, it just looks like an egg. Oh, it, yeah, it looks kind of like weird because you know, you see the eggs, and it's like warm and it's black,

but I'm like, you could have just put this in fucking food color. I wouldn't be able to tell the difference. Oh yeah, and also the egg kind of smells like farts because of the salt. Yeah, and the egg kind of smells like farts. So yeah, you crack it open and it's just a normal boiled egg. Yeah. I remember eating it and Eugene's like, hmm,

I can really like taste the sulfur. I took a bite and I'm like, this is like every other boiled egg. It's just a hard boiled egg. It is a hard boiled egg. I'm like, bro, this needs some salt in it, man. Like you literally paid like what you, the amount you'd pay for like a full pack of 12 eggs for one black egg.

And I'm like, the line to just get these eggs was like, it was the entire like length of the shop. Yeah. I'm like, the Japanese are a fucking master at marketing the stupidest fucking thing that people will travel to your prefecture to do. The one thing though that's cool up there, I don't know if they still have it,

but they have like an ice cream place, like a soft serve place. Oh, that does black soft soft. But it's all it is, it looks cool. Yeah, it's like it's this pitch black ice cream. Yeah, yeah, yeah, like charl roll. It's just vanilla ice cream. Yeah, they only put charcoal in it.

Yeah, they put charcoal in it. Yeah, and that makes it pretty bad. But when you eat it, it's just a vanilla Soxyl vanilla is actually pretty good there. Oh? Chalkhole vanilla is good. But is it worth spending 45 minutes to go up a mountain that smells like fast to get it?

Yeah. You ever do that shit where you put like charcoal on your teeth? Yes, I've died out. Yeah, I used to use like, Like a charcoal face wash. Yeah. Yeah, I don't know. I feel like it doesn't work.

They got rid of my acne. Oh, okay. Yeah. So it worked for me. Part of the problem with a lot of these like, let's say, like self grooming, self like, um, like beauty tips and stuff like that is, I don't know who to fucking trust.

Cause let's, let's be honest. Like, like basically all of these products are made in a lab, right? Yeah. With some chemicals that you'd hope, help whatever the fuck they're selling. But like every time I like go on YouTube or go on the internet to like search up, how do I get rid of, let's say, I have like a bad acne day or something?

How do, what's the best way to like get rid of that? Yeah, a lot of the time it's like, a lot of the time, a lot of stuff like that will be like, hey, maybe you should sleep more exercise and eat healthy. And then like, no, no, no, I didn't come for that answer. I don't want that answer. Like just, you know, stand in the sunlight for a little bit

and go away. Well, I started wearing, every morning for, I was using FaceMash a while, and I kind of like it, but it's also kind of annoying because you have to leave them on for like 15 minutes. Sometimes I just want to get into streaming right away. Yeah. And then I know that a lot of people said wear sunscreen every day.

Yeah. So I started doing that and I don't know if it's going to do anything. I think, yeah. What is the science of that? Well, so obviously like even when it's like cloudy and stuff, there's UV and the UV is pretty bad for your skin in general. So the idea is that if you're just always wearing, and it's a moisturizing cream and,

and sunscreen in two and one. So hopefully the idea is like I get moisturized and also protect from UVs because you're getting sunburned in his house. Well you've got, I mean, even if I'm walking outside for like an hour, I'm like, I'm putting it on. That's why you don't use light mode.

You're like, yeah, my skin. I think UV is what like kind of ages your skin. Like yeah, oh yeah, tremendously. So even when I was talking about Ludwig, he was like, it was like a cloudy day and he was like, oh, I'll check the UVs. I'm like, yeah, I got to check the UVs outside. I'm like, why?

He's like, got to see if I could have put sunscreen on. What? What? Have you ever, you know those like strips, those like black strips that you see like on your nose that like gets rid of blackheads? Yeah. Do you know, have you ever used them? Yeah, I've used it. Have you ever seen it be as effective as what those YouTube videos make it seem like?

I feel like it works, but not well enough to when you want to keep doing it. Yeah. Like I've seen videos, especially the videos where, you know, they advertise it. Of course, of course it's gonna be the videos they advertise it. And it looks so fucking satisfying, just seeing like the little pins like pop out as you, as you peel it. So what is this useful? Getting rid of blackheads. Like on your nose and on like your forehead and stuff like that.

But every time I've seen someone do it, I swear to God, it just rips out their hair. I don't know, I never see any fucking blackheads on there. Just waxing their face. I'm not, I did it, I saw blackheads, but I found that the results were so subpar. Yeah, I was like, I don't, I don't even know I had these. Like, I couldn't even tell.

Like, I never, I never, the reason I did it is because they marketed towards me and made me think that I had a problem. So I did it and I was like, when I guess there's something on it, but I'm like, I don't really see a difference. I feel a difference, but that's just because I peeled my skin.

Yeah, yeah. So I'll feel different no matter what when I do that. Yeah, right. I don't know, maybe I'm being. Have you ever fallen down the YouTube rabbit hole like those fucking pimple popping videos. No, bro, I can't watch those.

I cannot watch those. I don't understand, I'm calling out people who enjoy watching videos like that. Yeah, I bet Maylin likes them. Yeah, I bet Maylin likes them. Is Mayleyn here? Oh, she's left. So, okay, so no offense for people

who love watching videos like that, what the fuck is wrong with you? It's so gross. I don't understand, like, people say like, oh, it's satisfying and I'm like, slime videos are satisfying. Just watch those. No, I do get it, because when you pop,

When I pop my own pimple or something, it is kind of satisfying. Yeah. Really? What, when you pop your own pimple and you get all that shit out of this? It just hurts. No, it doesn't hurt. It does. No.

I used to have mad acne on my face when I was in high school and so like, I would sometimes accidentally pop pimples just by like scrunching my face. And, whoa. Yeah. Dude, I had, I had, I had really bad acne. No, dude, because when you get a bunch out,

you're like, ah, fucking are nice to get it all out. Yeah, but then it just leaves a fucking scar on your face. You're not for long though. Oh, sometimes it's permanent. Oh really? Yeah. Yeah, that's why you shouldn't pop your pin. Yeah, I actually like, I actually have some permanent scars on my face because of it.

I can't tell it. But it's, I have the beard to hide it. But it's super fucking hard to not pop it because it's just so satisfying. Yeah, dermatologists always say like, don't pop your people. Oh, you're not supposed to? No. You're not supposed to. Oh. Because it leaves a mark.

Because sometimes you can actually like push it like even, like more deeply in. Yeah. If you pop it like incorrectly. And then when that thing eventually pops, whether you like it or not, that it fucking hurts and it can start bleeding. Yeah. Yeah. And it's- That's the satisfying ones though.

That's how you know everything out. Okay, but like, look, granted. What is your factual basis for this? There's no factual basis for this. Okay, granted, right? Like, okay, I get it. Like, popping your own pimple, satisfying, right? Because it gets through this thing on your face. Popping other people's pimples too.

Yeah, but like I don't want to see a random person's people getting popped super fucking up close. And where you can see all the fucking pus and shit coming out of it. I'm like, that's just gross. I don't wanna see that. Do you think you'd take care of yourself if you, as much if you were a YouTuber? How much less would you take care of yourself

if you went on camera? Well, I can show you a picture of when I was in high school and it's pretty bad. Yeah. I feel like I would have been the biggest fucking slob on earth I was on camera. I would be like 300 pounds. Like I just wouldn't care.

Yeah. I feel like I take care of myself the same. I would not. I would not. YouTube, like, the only thing that I've done because of YouTube is kind of like, when I was like, you know, put on makeup. But that was just like, I would, I would have probably done that eventually

just because I would just have been searching for a way just to stop these fucking comments every time I see someone. Yeah. I mean, it is frustrating, especially like, if, same with like, if for some reason someone sees like a part of my, like, balding area. Yeah. Every comment is like, oh my God,

even though it's saying I've spoke about like a million times. Yeah. And it's one of those things that unfortunately is just like, it is what it is. Yeah, yeah. And lighting, especially studio lighting,

which is very bright and my skin tone reflects. So it's like, oh fuck. Yeah. And it's just one of those things where it's like, I don't care about this nearly as much as the comments do. Yeah.

But seeing all those comments is like, dude, could we just talk about the goddamn video? Yeah. Yeah, no, exactly. That's the thing. I get that. I get that. That's the thing.

And I would never have cared about like, finding ways to kind of like, you know, make it better. Yeah. Until all these fucking comments were like, hey, you should, you know, why the fuck you're balding? And it's like, bro, what do you mean? Why? Yeah, it's not like I see.

Like you have a choice. Like some people who post on like Reddit, like, oh my God, Connor's balding. Yeah. It's like, what do you mean? Like, yes. Like, who cares? I had British genetics. I was fucked from the star.

Yeah, I mean, it's, yeah, it's not like I wake up every day. I'm like, oh my god. No, no, no, no, same, same. Some, sometimes just like a slight annoyance. And I'm like, yeah, go, go, go. Can we talk about the thing that I wanna talk about? And it's, you know, it was just like an easy way just to like stop the comments.

Yeah. But like even if like I didn't have YouTube, I don't know, I feel like I've never, I've never put too much effort into like self-grooming, but I've never been like full of full blown degenerate closet weave. I feel like I would be a totally different person if I just didn't somehow end up doing these YouTube videos. Because I didn't really care about taking care of myself

in any capacity. Right. I was like, I'll just do video games. I would, I would, the only reason I would take care of myself without the YouTube videos is like for my partner. Right, like if my partner is like, oh, you're kind of fucking fat, then I'll be like, all right, well, you know what,

maybe best to start getting in shape. Yeah, you know, that's, honestly, that's kind of like the best motivation. Yeah, I wanna stay looking good. Yeah, for my wife, man. Yeah, exactly. I wanna say looking good. Exactly.

Like sometimes I'm like, yo, Sidney, do you wanna me to get like bigger muscles and she's like, no, and I'm like, part of me is just like, but what if I did? But what if I could? Yo, yo, how much would that make her happy if I did? Even though she says she doesn't wanna see it? I'm like, maybe, maybe one day I'm gonna wake up.

Are you willing to sacrifice all your great food and drink to get a six pack? Because I'm not. No one is worth it. No, no amount of physical gratification will compare to a great beer and there's god-derent food friends. I don't think like the reason I said six-pack

is because I don't think it would take me too much work to get a six-pack just because I've so thin as it is that like, like I've, you know, when I went to the gym more regularly before, I was like actually like I think quite close to getting a six-pack because it was like starting to show just because I didn't have to lose too much weight for the muscle to start showing. So that's why I'm just like, maybe, maybe one day.

That's why I was so glad when I also asked the same question, I was like, would you like it if I was like more toned and like, you know, six pack, maybe not a six pack, but just like more musly tone. And she's like, no, I'll like you the way you are. And I was just like, oh, thank God. All right. Woman, hand me my pizza.

Whatever makes you happy, right? Yeah, yeah. But of course she's gonna say that now. Of course, of course your partner's gonna be like, no, honey, I love you just the way you are. But if hypothetically, she said, I would like to see you in a six pack, I would probably try and do my best

to give myself a six back. Fair enough. You know, because it's like, If that's what makes her happy, then that's what will make me happy, right? I'd be like, damn, you're in the wrong relationship. I can call up Johnny Sims for you, he's got a six-back. I found it very, very, so the most common, if you ever try to, you know, do you take, like, rogene or whatever,

any hair medication, like the main one, the one that's like the only one that's, like, FDA approved, whatever. All the ads that you hear on YouTube and stuff, all promote whatever. Yeah. I just found it so fucking funny that the one side effect, this drug. So you can, they're like, you can stop losing your hair.

Okay, okay. And they're like, there is a side effect there. And you're like, go on. It's like, there is a chance. You may be impotent. And you're like, wow, what a cruel trade-off. You can still, you can feel and look more attractive and have your hair, but you're rolling the dice

as if your dick will work. And you're like, God damn, dude. That's the site, like, it could have been anything. It could have been like depression, weight gain, any of those things. It's like, it's like, it's like, it's like they, it's like a movie plot. You couldn't design this side effect

more perfect for what the cause is. Yeah, like, that's the equivalent of being like, you can have the sexiest six pack to get anyone you want, but you have to get a vasectomy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But no way, no, that does that, but I don't think that would be as much of it. You still have the dick, yeah, you still have,

all right, we gotta chop you off the dick off. Okay, we gotta chop your dick off. Yeah, but yeah, cause, I remember because I had this conversation with Ditis before as well because I told him that I was also taking. He seemed to believe that it would just, no matter what, if you took it,

your peeve you don't work. I told him, I'm like, no, no, no. So if you do your research, I believe there is 1% chance. It's small, it's a very, very small chance. I believe it's 1% that you'll just get impotency. Maybe not impotence, but you feel, It's not, I was, exactly.

You're less potent. It's like you're way less, you have like, way less desire for sexual activity and you could, could, your people might not work as much. Yeah, yeah, yeah. In that, in that department. So what?

If that matters to you. Yes. So, so, yeah, I told Didas that, yeah, I take this as well. And the first thing he says to me. Yeah, same fucking thing to me. Yeah, the first thing he says to me is, yo, did you win the Gatcha?

And I was like, what do you mean? What did you mean? And he goes, the dick gotcha. Did you win? And I was just like, Oh wait, yeah, maybe okay. Cause I had the conversation with him where I was like, he was like, yeah,

I don't know if I should start taking it. And I was like, well, I wish I did research sooner. Because like it completely pretty much stopped any kind of progressive hair loss. Like it's so it's like kind of, it's just normal now. Yeah, it's not normal, but like it doesn't get worse and it got a little bit better.

Yeah. And so I was like, dude, if you're even thinking it might happen, you may as well just fucking, if you're worried about it, just start now before you actually are balding. and then your halen recedes and you're like, oh, well, fuck, that's too late. There's no way, there's no way to regrow hair

that's lost about getting a fucking transplant or something. The only way that you can stop yourself, stop you from losing hair is prevention. So you need to get there before, I know this sounds like an ad read. Yeah, this is like literally I'll keep, like a fucking ad read, but that's because it's like,

I did my research even before getting. Or you could just, I used to think it was so cringe all those ads that were promoting it. And I'm like, God damn, I wish I'd fucking started soon. I'm so stupid. Because you know, I think you always think, and I was very guilty of this as well.

Like, yeah. Because you just, when you're growing up and you have hair for fucking 20 years, you just always think, oh, this is never gonna happen to me. Yeah. You, you always think that and then like, maybe you notice one day. I can't, I think, yeah.

Do you remember the first time you noticed? Yes. How did you, how, do you feel comfortable sharing? Yeah, yeah, I mean, like, I, I mean, I believe I've told you this in private, but I knew I was gonna bowl, basically. Uh, every, One on my dad's side, is just bold and has, you know, even if they haven't completely lost

hair on the top of it. They've all lost their hair. And it's something... Why didn't we tell them sooner? Why don't we know sooner? Yeah. So I remember, because, you know, I, this was back in like the Saske hair phase. Right, right? I... My favorite face. I like my hair, okay. And not, not that, not that, you know, I don't think I could pull off like a bold thing. I just don't, I just don't know if I'm, it's, I just don't know if I'm ready for it to be like my identity. I mean, you know what I mean?

You've had the benefit of having tried before. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And I've actually had, I've gone, I have gone through that phase. You've gone through a trial period before. I've gone through the trial period of that phase. I know I can put it off, but, you know, I'd like it to be, instead of be, like, a choice,

I'd like it to be a choice rather than a choice that's thrust upon me. Right, right. Yeah. So I remember when I was like, you know, 17, 18, I was like, dad, uh, Everyone on your side of the family is bold. And I remember like, what started this conversation was,

I remember seeing a picture of my dad when he was like, you know, in his like 20s. And here he had, he had a lot of hair. Yeah, he had hair down to fucking here. He's had, he had more hair than I have. That's always the case. Yeah, yeah, he's had more hair than I ever did in my life.

And I was just like, oh, dad, you used to have a lot of hair. He's like, yep. Thanks for bringing it up. And I was like, uh, so like, out of curiosity, when did you start losing it? And it was like, oh no, I gotta remember, I think it was like around like 30 or something. I've never, like, I've never forgot on this conversation

in my life because I remember, this conversation is engraved in my mind because as soon as I heard that, as soon as I hit 25, I was like, start taking pictures. I started taking pictures and it's, it is literally, you going through the five, stay, the five stages of denial. As you are, like, tracked you do, right?

Because like, I must have just, I must have just parted it weird. Yeah, yeah. My hair doesn't go in this direction. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Everyone has a little dog. Yeah, of course. So, like, I started regularly taking pictures

of, like, my scalp, uh, since I was around the age of like 25, 26. And I was like, ha, I've beaten the genetics. 25 years old, be into genetics. I pulled the gotcha. Yeah, yeah, yeah. At age of 26, ha, my dad was talking shit. I have a full head of hair, baby.

27. Maybe that's, maybe that's a bad angle. Is that a bad angle? That might just be a bad angle. I still look good, baby. Age 28. Nah, I mean, like, that's like a normal hairline. That's, you know, everyone who gets old has like a little bit of like a little bit of receding recession there.

I forgot what it was called. Whittos peak? Uh, widows peak. That's just a widows peak. That's just a widow's peak. Age 29. Uh, this is when I've like fully moved to Japan for like, you know, uh, Like the first year, I was like, it could be, it could be, uh, like I'm, I'm, you know what, you know what? You know, this is, this, I know this looks like a bad picture. I know this looks like a bad picture, but maybe, maybe, maybe it's just, uh, maybe it's just a bad picture, bad lighting, bad lighting and, uh, it's gonna get a new phone. Yeah, yeah, yeah, and it was when, like, it was when I hit like the age of like 30. I just had like, there was like one awful picture and there was like one video where I believe like the back of my head was showing a, I, I think, I think.

I think it was, might have been like the drifting special or something. And I'm like, I'm like, okay, acceptance time. Yeah, I am losing my hair. But it still doesn't look so bad. It does, it doesn't look too bad. So that's when I started doing like a lot of research into this. And ever since I started taking, started taking the pill, it's not gonna,

it's not gotten any worse. It's gotten like slightly better, nowhere near as good. Yeah, yeah, yeah, as when I started tracking it when I was like 20, 25 or whatever. But it's not gotten any worse, you know. Which is a good thing, which is a good thing. Yeah. Yeah. It was, yeah, it was very strange.

Did I ever tell you the story about how I asked my dad how he lost his hair? No. I was like, I was like, dad, how did you, because he had a, he had like a giant bald area. And I was like, how did you, how did that happen? He straight up fucking lied. He lied to me. I escaped from a house fire. He said that like, while he was working, something dropped on his head.

And that ever since then, he hasn't been able to grow hair there. And I was a fucking kid, I just believe him. And so going into my adulthood, I just had that in the back of my mind. And then now I realized the motherfucker had lied to him. Why would you not just tell his kid that, hey, you bald sometimes, you just lose it.

Yeah, see, because in my family's case, I wasn't even the one that brought up the question. My parents used to just fucking give me shit about it being like, you're gonna go bald. Yeah, you're like, what the hell? Because like my granddad went, like, started like actually getting like a full patch here at like 26, 25.

Yeah, I mean, I'm wrong. And he was like, ha, it sucks to be you, Joey. That's gonna happen to you and I'm just shitting my pants, like, all throughout high school. I feel like that's the right way to go about it. Yeah. Because I feel like I... I wish I was like talked about to me more.

Yeah. You could be a thing that could happen that, hey, if you wanna do sound about it, you sound about it. Because one thing I realized, one thing I've realized, right? Especially in this case. The only reason I was like, I was super attentive about like my,

in my hairline and whether I was going bold or not. Because swear to my fucking God, every time I'd ask a loved one, if I looked any worse, they'd just be like, no, you're not balding. Don't worry about it, honey. Whether it's like fucking Sydney or my mom, my mom, my mom, full on Asian fucking mom being like,

honey, you're not gonna bowl, don't worry about it. It's just in your head. And it was only when I showed her pictures of when I turned 30 that she actually just like, and I was like, yes. And I was like, mom, this is my hairline right now. You wanna go back on your word? Because if I weren't taking pictures,

this is where I'd be right now, mom. Yeah, I mean, to be honest, like, if I ever see like a little, like, you know, you see a little bit of hair, like someone's head through the hair, you're like, oh, well, it's not, you know, you don't think of it as like a bald spot. You just like, I could just see their scalp.

Yeah. But I guess when it gets bigger is when it's, you know, there's a very thin line between when it looks like you're balding and when it's just like a, I can just see their scalp. Yeah. But, you know, you keep track and then you notice.

I remember one time, oh God, I must have been like 21. And I just was like, huh, just saw something in the mirror because I somehow saw the back of my head and I was like, that's, it feels like my hair has been done differently. Yeah. Definitely wasn't there when I checked a few months ago. And I was like, no, I can't bored him, like 21.

This wouldn't happen. But yeah, sure enough, it was. Yeah, and it wasn't getting any worse for a while and then it suddenly just got, started getting a lot worse. And I was like, oh shit, I gotta do something about this. Or I gotta just shave it all off. Yeah. Which I'm happy to do, but I'm like, man,

it'd be a nice time for a few more years. What's the point for you where you were just like, all right, it's gonna go? I guess if it ever gets to the point where it just, from no matter what kind of like, because right now it only looks really bad if studio lighting has shined on my fucking head and you can very much see it just an angle of my head.

Right, yeah. All right, well, that just looks like shit. Yeah. But, you know, in a normal day, it doesn't look that bad and you can't tell unless I'm like fucking showing you my goddamn scalp. And it's like, all right, well, I may as well, just,

enjoy having hair for a little while, and then it gets to the point where if it always just looks bad or it always looks like it's thin down. I'm like, well, just get rid of it. Yeah, I'm not too worried about it. I'm pretty, oh, am I touching it now? I'm like, you know, if it ever looks like, shit, I'll just shave it all off.

I'm not too bothered about going bald. I'm kind of like, whatever, but if I can enjoy it. But there's that weird stigma right of people being like, oh, I don't wanna like lose it all so they just like try and fucking hold on to it because they're afraid of going bold. And I'm like, there's nothing wrong with being bald. Yeah, I'm kind of, you know,

that'll be the next star. there's a lot of dudes who look fucking great. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm just enjoying it now. I think it's the choice thing. Because I want a choice. Yeah, yeah, it's not about not being able to rock a bold look because so many guys can. It's about having the choice of having, like,

because it kind of just feels like an identity, right? Because once you like commit to being bold, it's kind of like a big identity shift, right? And it's like, yeah, you know, a lot of people rock it and like fucking good on you guys, you know. But I feel like a lot of guys, you know, I feel like a lot of guys are just like, I could rock the bold look,

but I like having the choice of whether I can like star on my hair or not or just being stuck with this, stuck with this one look for my entire life. It would be pretty fucking hilarious if trash taste goes on for a lot longer and it just ends up being three bald dudes on a podcast. Could see the arc.

Yeah, yeah. It's the bold arc. The bold arc. Yeah, but like any advice, like any guys who are worried about this, like just honestly keep track of it because you, You're like, your memory sucks.

Your memory fucking sucks. If you think, if you think that you're balding, you probably are balding, you know, because like you'll be like, I don't know, did I look any different one year ago? Let's be honest, you don't remember what you looked like one year ago. You don't remember if it's receded like one millimeter or whatever, but if you actually genuinely take pictures,

that is like concrete evidence of, okay, this, there I am, I'm actually progressing, my hair line is actually progressing and I can visually see it versus just you asking a mate being like, do I look like I'm balding? Because they're gonna say no. Because if we see them

unless it's like super significant. Yeah, unless it's super significant. But at the end of it, like if you see someone every day, you don't like normally see like a clear change. Like I remember, I still always remember this where Conno talks about like being a bit overweight before like trash taste and shit like that. And in my mind I was like,

Connor's talking shit. but it's actually talking shit. But I've seen Connor so many times that like his weight change before, like he moved to Japan and before like, he started taking YouTube more seriously. Like his weight change was so gradual to me that I just did not,

I didn't register it at all. Because now when I look back and look at like old photos of when you guys were like first visiting Japan. Yeah, yeah. I'm just like, oh. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Wow, okay.

Yeah, definitely was bigger. Yeah. Yeah. But like I was losing it pretty healthily, like the way I was losing it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I wasn't doing it like rapidly. No, it wasn't like overnight.

Yeah. You know, I was, I stuck to eating the chicken and broccoli for like four or five months and worked out a lot. Yeah, yeah. You know, I'm sure shit, I lost weight. Exactly. Fucking sucked, but it was way easier as well because I didn't have as much of a social life.

Like I find now that having a social life and going out and talking to people and having dinners people is so much harder to actually like keep like on a, like an actual diet for me. Yeah. But it, you know, and it requires a lot more self-control. And back then it was a lot easier for me.

Because I had the opposite problem where like I used to be hell of skinny. I mean, you look at like the first episode of trash taste. It was like crazy. Oh yeah, I remember that. I look like a different person. It's kind of crazy how like, you know, how even just like a, not even a,

not even going from like, uh, like it's not like you ever got like overweight or underweight, but like just how changing your weight in any capacity. Yeah. Yeah. Really makes you look different, but you don't notice it in the moment. Yeah. Not at all.

I've been, uh, considering, so Sydney recently has gotten, uh, like, ICL. It's kind of like eye surgery. Yeah. And I think, I think my stigmatism's gotten worse again. I don't know. There's sometimes, sometimes, I saw this really interesting. It's, you know, I find information in the weirdest way sometimes.

And there was just this random Twitter thread, just detailing the, detailing the, like what people with astigmatism see. And I've never just had a moment where just this holy shit moment, that just like me for real, because I just thought there's so many things that I just thought were just everyone saw. And then I saw this thread detailing. This is what you have,

this is what things will look like if you have a stigmatism. And this is gonna sound like the biggest fucking excuse of all time, but you know, there is a reason why I find light mode easier to read and follow and like this thread details, yeah, you actually like the way that the lighting works and the ways that you see like perceived letters,

and thin, thin details. Things are clearer if it's like a light background. Light mode is probably the thing that's giving you a stigosis at this point. It's so fucking bright. Like, my word fit to blind you, but yeah. It's just like a never ending loop of like,

oh my eyesight's shit, use light mode, use light mode, my eyesight gets worse. Yeah, but Sydney got these, Sydney got ICL surgery recently and I've never been more jealous of someone in my life. Just, she just wakes up every day and she's like, my God, I have, perfect eyesight is even better than where I've heard that my whole long.

I know right. Same. Fucking, what does it feel like guys? What does it feel like? Tell me, tell me. Yeah, because I remember I saw, I think it was a Twitter thread or a Reddit thread or something like years ago of like this guy who used to do like watercolor paintings

of like landscapes and he would like paint the same like picture differently depending on what your eyesight level was. So like the worst eyesight you had, the more like faded out the same thing. picture looked. And I remember I saw that back in like, you know, at the beginning of doing YouTube and stuff like that. And I'm just like, oh, that looks like it fucking sucks. Yeah. And so I started wearing the blue light glasses because I was just like, well, I don't want my, I don't want to fucking wake up looking at that. Yeah. I'll try and prolong it as much as possible. Obviously, my eyes is going to get worse the older I get. And that's just like natural deterioration.

But like, I don't want it to like increase considering I'm staring at a fucking screen all day for my job. Right. Yeah. But, uh, yeah, I've really, I really, I really want to be. I don't want to get it, but I don't know. I have this issue called just being chronically lazy. I remember seeing this YouTube video, right? That's, that details like, girls, what do you not understand about guys, right? And one of the replies in this Reddit thread was,

I don't understand why guys were just refused to go to an appointment unless you specifically book it for them and force them to go. And I'm like, shit. I've never been called out so more, like, so accurately in my life. Cause like I've realized that I will never, like I could have like an issue that's been bothering me

for like months and months. And it's all sorted by just going to like, just sorting out like a simple appointment. But I will never do it myself unless like my, unless fucking Sydney does it for me. I have that exact same problem with like, not even like appointments, just like places I wanna go. You know, I'd be like, I could,

I could walk past the place and be like, oh, that looks pretty sick. And they'll talk about it days later. And Archie's just waiting, being like, so we're gonna go or what? And the only reason I go is because she books it for me, right? And I'm like, oh, I've always wanted to go. And I'm like, why did I never just do this myself?

Oh my God, why is that a thing? And another comment was, another comment, which was just like, this one, Cindy asked me this all the time. where like a girl like walks past each other in the street. They have like a five second conversation and they could tell like what their best friend has been doing for the entire past two weeks.

Guy goes on a tramping, guys go on a camping trip together, spends like three days together. You go back home and she asked, what do you guys talk about? And you just go, I don't know. That's every time I go out drinking with the boys. Yeah, right? Right.

Every time I'm just like, we even have it with trash days as well. I mean like, I come home from a trash. Like, oh, what did you guys talk about in this episode? I'm like, oh, what did we talk about? Probably nothing important, it's whatever. Like, Sidney's like, I cannot understand how you could spend the entire weekend

with all of these guys and not know what you guys talked about. Like, how does that work? Is that meme of like the girlfriend lying in the bed being like, they're probably talking shit about the other girls? And then the guys are just like, I don't fucking remember what we talked about. I just because most conversations feel so inconsequential.

Like, they're just kind of like, normal conversations where like I only remember like conversation or I'm like, that was weird. Yeah, right? That was unusual. I know, I just know sometimes like even I can have like, you know, sometimes I do have like deep conversations with my fellow bros, but put in the moment of just like

what did you guys talk about. My ability to like to like get that memory back is just like impossible unless there's something that reminds me, oh yeah, I had this conversation and we talked about this, I remember all the details of this super deep conversation that we had, but if you asked me, oh, what'd you guys talk about? And I'd be like, oh, fuck.

Meanwhile, girls have this like, fucking perfect photographic memory of every little thing they talked about. So much so to the point where they start, like, dissecting it with you. And it's just like, all I asked was what did you talk about? I wasn't waiting for an analysis. Yeah, if there's one thing that I've noticed, as, okay, as a guy, something I will never understand

about girls, right? is sometimes you talk, you know, you meet girls that who are like really good friends. And it's just like, the moment I know that there are girls who are like super, super good friends is for some reason like they can tell when each other's periods are coming. And I'm like, I'm just like, that is something

that is beyond my level of understanding. And I thought it was just like a one person thing. But the more girls I talk to, the more I'm like, Oh no, yeah, I know when all my mates is periods are. Does everyone just have like tundra level away? Yeah, yeah. Like I smell one, too, does all- It's like, I smell one percent more iron in the years.

Yeah, it's like, girls, I know what everyone's menstrual cycle is actually. Like, I'm just like, this is some- I have a chart right here. This is something that is beyond my level of understanding as a guy, you know. I don't know how accurate it is for girls, but I see it, I hear it about it every so often, like, in, conversation when I talk to me. Meanwhile guys don't even realize

if another bro has had a haircut. Like it's like, it could be the most obvious shit. And you'd be like two hours into a conversation with your friend and be like, oh, did you get a haircut by the way? Yeah. Why are we so dull? That's so fucking true.

You just don't pay attention to stuff like that. Yeah, clearly not. Yeah, because when it changes too much, like a, like our producer. who had dyed his hair one day, completely blonde. And I remember my first reaction when walking into the office because the hair color was different was, I don't recognize this person.

It wasn't like, it was me with anime characters. I don't fucking know these characters. That's why they never change their hair. What color is their hair again? It's why they never changed. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. God. Why don't we like this?

The absolute state of men, man. Also, like, also, I don't know if this is the thing necessarily about girls, but it's always moms, right? Okay. Mums in particular know when you've lost a little bit of weight or you've gained a little bit of weight. Even if you're not aware of it, it's just like every time, it's like, I could be meeting like a friend's mom

or like, you know, a friend, you know, just some mom of a friend that I know or whatever. Who's moms you meet me? Yeah, I meet a lot of moms, you know? Yeah. I should probably, I should bring you a friend along, yeah. And they're always just like,

you gain a bit of weight, or you've lost a bit of weight, and I'm like, no, I haven't. And then I go home and I check and I'm like, wow, I have lost a bit away, how the fuck did you know? I feel like that's an Asian mom thing. They can always tell, they have, they have like a scale in their minds.

Asian mom conversation started 101. Bro, there are some mum abilities that I just don't fucking understand. Like, how is it, okay, how is it that, you've misplaced something, you've spent the entire fucking day looking for this like mobile phone or keys or something that you've misplaced. You're like, mom, I don't know what this is.

They have a fucking radar built into their mind to be like, I know where you've misplaced it. I'm gonna find it within one second. Agi has like superhuman abilities with that shit. Like I could be like something super insignificant. Like oh, do you know where the role of tape is? I fucking searched everywhere in this house. And she's just sitting on the couch being like,

uh, my room, second drawer right at the back. I go there and it's there. I'm like, what the fuck? Yeah, I have pretty bad memory where I play stuff. Oh yeah, yeah. I've put like trackers on everything that's important. Yeah, you do. I have trackers on my wallet.

I have trackers on my expensive headphones. I have trackers on my keys, my passport, my bike. Yeah. I have like a tracker on everything that's kind of valuable and I need because it's not even that I got tired of losing it potentially like permanently. It was like, I was tired of that fucking five minute shit

where I'll have to look around my house to find where it is. I'm like, you know what? I just wanna get rid of that. I'm just gonna have it so that if I lose it, I'm like, all right, let's play it a little thing. I've done this thing now where I've had the exact same problem because I have a bad habit of just leaving shit

all over the house. I now have this thing where I just have this one little box that just has all my important shit in it. No, I have that too, but I somehow just- You still lose it? I put shit in the wrong place sometimes. Skill issue. So yeah, that's been very helpful for me.

Except I have these like running headphones that I like as well. and the two small to put a tracker on. Yeah. And so I keep losing them still. It's driving me insane. I tried that once. And then how do your trackers work?

So do you have like a beeper? Yeah, it's like a thing and it plays a little ringing sound. The tile things, right? Yeah, tile. I have tar. I don't think they're as good as the Apple one, but they work well enough. Yeah, I lost the thing that beeps.

Like, so. Oh, it's just an app on my phone. Oh, it's just an app. Yeah. Oh, I probably lose my phone to like. I lose the thing to find the thing that I've lost. I need my keys, where's my phone? Fuck, where's my phone?

Here's the best thing about it. If you have any of the things, there's a button on you can double tap and then it rings your phone. For example, let me show you. So I'm gonna, this is an advertial. Yeah, this is an advertial. Like my wallet, right, I have this card

that goes in there. And then I press this button twice. Oh, cool. And that's my phone. Yeah, that's how it works. Isn't that easy? Isn't that easy? See, I have, okay, but here's the question.

What if you lose your phone annual? Then as long as I have one item that's still, my bike, my keys, my passport, right. As long as I have something that I can, then I'll be fine. All right. See, I feel like, because I do have, I do have a finder and her name's Sydney. Like, Aki, I feel like there must be like some,

it must be something to do with maternal instincts, right? because what I've noticed is that when we first started, we've been dating for like almost 10 years now. She wasn't, she was as shit as me. She just didn't know where she would place things. I would ask her if she'd seen one certain thing that I'd misplaced and she would nowhere near find it. And then in like the past two, three years,

she suddenly just gained this ability to be, to be like, yeah, your keys are in the top drawer by your beds. You left them there and I'm like, how the fuck do you know this? How, when did you develop this ability? And I'm like, they're playing sims, in creative. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. They see the whole house from like top down,

being like, it's right there. And I'm like, oh no, is this, is this a mum thing that's like being developed here? It must be. Is this a maternal, is this a super power that all moms yet? It's definitely not a dad thing, it is not a dad thing at all.

Maybe. Maybe. Or it's a dad thing where like, the mom thing is the superhuman strength to find shit. The dad thing is the superhuman strength to lose shit. So it just bounces out, I like the idea that every time you just come,

you get stupider. Your body thinks like you're becoming a dad. You're just like, oh, you're a dad. So now you become, every time you're nut, you just lose an IQ point. Yeah. Do you feel like you are more like your mom or your dad or somewhere perfectly in between?

Like personality? Can I say the answer? I figure I'm like none of them. Can I say that as that answer? Like the mailman? I don't know. How so? Like you don't have any like traits that you took off you

Like that are obvious? If I, if I, mom and dad are crying right now. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So we didn't know how to tell you his son, but you did it for us. Maybe more like my mom. I feel like I'm nothing like my dad.

I don't know. It's very tough. Right. Do you feel like you have a lot of common with your mama dad? I feel like when I was, when I was like a kid, right? I was way more like my mom.

I don't know, I had like, uh. I think that's very common with sons though. Yeah. Like, like I think, like, Like sons, when you're younger, you very much, you know, go after your mom. Yeah. Even in terms of like looks as well. Yeah. And then as you get older, you start to look more like your dad.

Because I was definitely that. Like when I was a kid, I looked like full fucking Japanese kid. I looked exactly like my mom. And as I'm getting old, I'm looking less like my mom more like my dad. I feel like that way in personality as well. Like the more I go, the more I grow older, the more I'm like, fuck, you know, this is something my dad would do. This is something my dad would do. This is something my dad would say. And my mom, my mom's, I'm gonna call out my mom for us. Like my mom's been like in full fucking copier mode

for the past like three years because I'm like, I keep doing things, I'm like, I feel like I'm becoming my dad. My mom's like no, you're still like me, okay? You're still like me, you're still my son. You're more like me, you're more like me. And I'm like, mom, I think I'm becoming more like my dad. I'm not gonna lie. My mom's just like pointed out to me.

Why does your mom want you to be more like you? I don't know. I don't know. It's just the pride, is it just the pride. I am the better one to develop. You should develop more things. from me because I am more desirable. I've been noticing like, I even sound like my dad now.

It's to the point where I pick up the phone and people think it's my dad sometimes. Yeah, I have that too. You have that as well? Yeah, my grandma mistook me for my dad once. I've never had that. Yeah, it's, it's scary. And also just like, there's just the small little things

that you notice is just normal now until someone points it out and being like, you didn't used to do that. Like, even just like doing that thing of like, when you come back home and you sit down, you make that kind of, Like sound? Like I never used to do that.

Well my favorite thing is there's a shot of you as you like, I don't know why you're, I think you're in one of your manga coffee videos. You're like looking at like the books. Yeah. You're looking at it like such a fucking old man. And like the, you're like, you're holding like your one hand in the pocket,

one hand on coffee going. Oh. Oh. There are so many times where I find myself now in everyday life doing the dad, the dad stand. where you're just kind of, when you're looking at things, you're just like, what is this? I have noticed you've been doing that.

Yeah. I never used to do that. So we're getting old. I hate it. No, I mean, is it just like you reach a certain age and just every dad just agrees to like do the same thing and have like the same sense of humor? Must be.

Must be. Do you think dad jokes are actually dad jokes? Or were they funny at their age? And then they just couldn't stop making it. No, I've just, I've come to the conclusion now that dad jokes used to be not funny, now I find them fucking hilarious. I've been finding that.

And I hate it. You know, you know, it's like the- How old are you guys again? Okay, it's- You're still in your 20s, Joe. Give it a couple of years. Look, look, look, it's the irony thing. It's the irony cycle where you start saying something ironically,

and you're like, I'm saying it ironically, because, ha-ha, I'm getting old. And then somewhere along the line, I start saying it because I actually, I say it, and I start laughing to myself. I'm like, fuck. Like you get to the point where you say something in a facetious tone, not only because you want

the message to come across, but you also just find it hilarious. Where you just like, you say something facetious and then there's a voice in the back of your head that was like, nice one, Joey. You know what I mean, right? Oh my God. I hate that we're able to connect on this. Oh my God, no, I'm not becoming like my dad.

You'll get there, Conrad. You'll get there. I'm not, I don't think I'll ever get there. You'll get there, don't worry. You're British, you'll get there. I won't, I'll always be fun. I'll always be hip with the kids. I'll always be one with their fellow generational kids.

Fellow Zoomers. I feel like, as, you know, if you didn't have YouTube, if you didn't have YouTube, you'd probably grow more into like your dad. I get that, I get that engine from you, you know. You know, you dad's very chilled, very relaxed, you know, As like, one most, he's a bloke, man. He's a bloke, you know.

He's a top bloke. He's a top bloke, he's a top bloke, man. Just living his best life. Top bloke, man. Watching football, drinking beer. That's what he does. Meanwhile, I'm just becoming more and more like my dad. And it's like, I don't know if that's a good thing or not

because my dad's pretty cool, but yeah, it's a Wari. Yeah, I'm definitely becoming like my dad. I've realized the more I've grown older, the, like the more my dad just finds comfort in just doing nothing and just being chill with life. And it's like, for him to like go out and do something, it's like my mom that has to like pressure him to be like, oh, let's go here, let's go visit this person.

And it's not like my dad doesn't enjoy it, but my dad will refuse, my dad will never do it if it's just by his own volition. And I'm like, shit, this is, this is just me and Sydney. The moment you guys can start calling me out is if we ever go out drinking. And then in mid-conversation, I go, Oh, sorry boys, I'm fucking shit-faced.

I remember you did that once and told. Do you remember that? You did that once? Did I? And I was like, I remember telling you. That's just one thing I wanna adopt. Because you are, you are shit-faced. I'm like, Joey, you just, you did the dad,

you did exactly the same thing as you did your dad. I will never forget that moment, man. Oh, man. The race is gonna keep increasing as I get older. Fuck's sake. I do not believe. that there are people who do not piss in the shower. That's a genuine belief, because I could not imagine,

you know, I'd understand if it was like a communal shower or whatever like that, you know, if you were sharing. Like a public shower. Okay, yeah, you know, I didn't do that in my university dorms or whatever, but in your own house, come on, why. Yeah, I piss at my own shower. Yeah, yeah. We all agree with that, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Well, you were like, no second ago. Well, I try not to. Oh, okay. Yeah, I try and, like, pee before I go on the show. Yeah, but you're about to, like, flush, a bunch of water away with the shower anyways. Dude, if it's yellow, let it mellow. If I'm having a shit.

I don't flush all my pisses. Unless it's like giga yellow, I just let that shit mellow out. Oh my god. Asparagus day? Yeah, I'm flushing that shit, but... I don't know, sometimes, yeah, I mean, if it's yellow, you just, you gotta flush that shit, man. That shit stinks. Yeah, but sometimes if you've been drinking a lot of water,

your piss is like basically clear. Yeah, I just drink. I'm like, why let this go to waste? It's like, Tom me up, Doc. Right on tap. No, like, if you've been drinking a lot of water, or just, you know, drinking a lot of fluids, then your pee is like very clear.

And in that case, you're not gonna see the difference, and it's not gonna smell, so I'm just like, I just like, I hit the first morning pee. Oh, first morning pee's like, giga yellow. That's always just so, like, frothy. I'm just so yellow. Not frothy, I got, what the fuck?

You're froth? You got froth? I can get some frothy pussie. What the fuck are you a bud like piss? What the hell? Sometimes like the force that it goes in and just bubbles up. Oh my, my God.

Yeah, it's gross, sorry. Do you like the feeling first thing in the morning? You know, sometimes it's like a cold day or something like that. I don't know why I like this feeling because I only get it when I wake up first thing in the morning, but you have a corny shake. What?

Do you get that in the winter? What? When it's like a really, really cold day and you're holding in a piss, And while you're peeing, your body just kind of, ugh. Like that. I have had that. I have had that.

I know exactly what. Shit. Everybody has it. I didn't know this was the thing. I thought it was just a me thing. It's because I remember I looked into it because I was like, why the, like, what is wrong with me?

And so I looked into it, apparently that's your body's way because you're releasing a lot of heat from inside your body, because your pee is, you know, body temperature, right? So the body releasing all of that heat all at once, your body just, goes into like a little, like a shiver, because now your core body temperature

is a little bit cooler. Have you ever tried pissing in the dark? What do you mean? Of course I have. Yeah? How good is your, how good is your, how good is your, Oh, as in like in the middle of the night? Yeah, yeah, okay, it's the middle of the night. Okay, you're with a group of people.

Yeah. And you don't wanna turn the lights on. And also, you don't wanna piss on like the water as well, because, you know, that will wake people like. I just sit down. You just sit down? Yeah. I should do that, man. I just sit down now.

I'm like, I've had too many instances where I thought the ball was here, it was actually over here. And I'm like, oh, that sounds like it's not going in the ball at all. And I turned the line on like, fuck. It has happened a few times when I've had

the piss of faith. Where you position, with Arnold! You position them where you think that's what it is. You don't want to wake people up. It's the middle of the night. And yeah, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, It's the piss of faith and you find out within-

Why do you not wanna turn the light on? Because I don't wanna blind myself. Yeah, sometimes you don't wanna blind yourself and sometimes you just don't wanna wake people up as well. Okay, I don't know. How is the light gonna wake them up? I don't, for me, if I, I pit with the door open, I guess. Yeah, yeah.

Me too. If I piss at night, I never turn the lights on, just because when I turn the lights on, even if it's just like- Why are you on nightmare difficulty for pissing? I don't know, like my, because my brain, my brain weird, As soon as I see light, it's like my brain, my brain's like signal to be like, oh, you wake up now.

Wait, why is this the only time you're going dark mode? Every other moment of your life, you're like, brightness now, except when you pee for some reason. Okay, that's only when I wake up in the middle of the night, to be fair, because my brain is wide in a way to be like, if I see lights mode or if I see light,

I'm gonna wake up. And I've had a few times where, like, the worst thing, is, is like, I, because I know, because I know how my body works and sometimes the worst thing is when I have like a midnight shit. And when I just wake up someday and I'm like, I need to shit. I sleep better after I have the poop. But I don't have poop sometime. Yeah. But like if I pee when I really needed the pee, it helps me get to sleep. So, so my parents actually, last time I went back to my parents' place, they figured out the perfect solution to it. Oh my God, your fucking

toilet. They had fucking LED lights. underneath the line. No way. It is, I literally, I remember, I went home last time, it's been like, first time I went home since COVID, right? So I'm like, I'm looking around the house, looking for small changes, being like,

oh, that's moved or like they added this or whatever. I walk into the toilet and just immediately game a toilet. It's just like blue LED. It doesn't like a Republic of Gamert. It does, it is like. But I was like, this is so genius because now I don't have to sit down

because I can see exactly where it is and it's not blinding. I love sit, I prefer, I prefer, way prefer it. I don't mind it. What do you mean, it's my preferred go to. But sometimes it just can't be bothered to like pull my pants all the way down.

You know, you pull them all the way down. You know, put them to fucking ankles every time, right? You can't sit piss, bro. Why? I don't know, my, you know me of my like shits, right? As soon as- Sit-down equals poo-poo time.

That's why. Like, sit down. What is going on with your simple chimp brain where sitting down makes you want to poop? Okay, you know me. I hate the feeling of like not being, like empty. If I sit down and poop,

if I don't empty myself You can empty yourself and sit down with peeing? Yeah, but like if I sit down, sometimes it's like, oh, this is a half, this is gone from a like a quick one minute pee to like a half hour thing now. You've nerfed yourself. You've nerfed your entire body

for some weird fucking reason. Sometimes my body, I like, overcome this feeling, can't get past it. I've learned to live with my body. I know my body's limits and I know. the name of your fucking autobiography. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Living with my body. Yeah, yeah. If I sit down there at times when I'm like, oh shit, I need to go. And then as soon as like that, as soon as that has hit my brain, I'm like, oh, I'm stuck in now. I can't stand up until, until,

yeah, you have the phantom shit. Do you feel like as an adult, you're just bewild, like you're beholden to the weird perks you've picked up from being a kid and that you're like, well, I can't change anything now. It's too late. I, there are some perks that I have picked up.

Like I used to be able to sleep no matter what the situation was anywhere. And now sleep just, sleep is just, it's not harder, but there are like certain, I've noticed there are certain preset conditions for me to get a good night's sleep. And I've never, like, I've never had that before in my life.

I need, I need, what is the, for me, I need the room to be pitch fucking light. Oh, yeah. I can't have any amount of light. I'm like, if, if the, The curtain is like slightly open. I'm closing that shit all the way. Yeah.

I know it makes no difference, but I found that if it's pitch black, no, I can't do it. I love waking up and my room is fucking bright as shit. Oh yeah. I don't mind that in the morning, but the problem is, is that like the light coming from outside during the night keeps me up. Oh, no, doesn't do that.

Yeah, so I need to be like completely, like basically the equivalent to just shutting your eyes in a dark room in order for me to sleep. There's not a lot of light in my window, so I guess it's fine. I have like a big fucking window in my bedroom. So it's like I need that curtain all the way closed. Like no crack a light at all.

Part of the reason that I felt so tired every day on tour was just the fact that I was not waking up to natural sunlight. Yeah. Because of that reason, my body was just like continually tired as after I woke. Yeah, I hated it. I need sunlight to wake up.

I remember we had this conversation as well. Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. I think that's just like everyone though, right? I feel like I need. No. Really? No, Chris absolutely does not want the curtains open or blinds open.

at any point. Because whenever we share rooms, I'm like, oh my God, we have to fucking like bunker the whole fucking room down to make sure one crumb of light doesn't get in the room so like Chris will wake up, furious in the middle of the night. Yeah, I think that's why I, you know,

kind of gel with Chris whenever we're sleeping in the same hotel room. Problem is, still can't get to sleep because he snores like a motherfucker. It's so goddamn loud. Yeah, I need like a half hour to an hour cool down period before I actually like, like some people can just like go to sleep

like that. I need like a cool down period when I just lay on the bed and just chill out, like get low to sleep. Yeah, I'm the equivalent of like when you turn your computer off and then it starts updating. Yeah, yeah. I need that to finish before I can actually go to sleep. Most of the time I'm pretty tired by the time I get to bed. So as long as I get in a position that my, I think my brain has tricked myself like, this is a sleeping position. Yeah. I think I fall asleep pretty quickly. Yeah, like I was like I was saying earlier, you know, when I wake up to go for like a midnight piss or like a midnight shit when I just wake up because I didn't go to the toilet

for hands. I have like a timer and I know like it's weird because I kind of get what you mean. I consciously know that there's a timer so when I take a shit, if I don't shit fast enough, there's a timer for my brain to be like, okay, you are asleep enough to go back to sleep to, oh, you're awake.

No, I can't, I can't get that. You're awake now and you're not going to back to sleep and you took too long to shit. The timer is run now. Your shit timer. Your shit timer has run out. Brain awake, you do not go back to sleep. And I'm like, I hate that.

Because I can physically, I can physically feel my brain waking up. I'm like, no, come on. That's like one thing I'm glad I got, my body got rid of is that like, I used to take midnight shits every night. Well, you can kind of. When I was in high school, but now I don't do it anymore.

I'm pretty sure you can somehow control your bowel movements. I don't know how. But I'm pretty sure. That is like, teach me master. I need to know the ways. Just hold that shit in. I'm pretty sure because like, I poop at the exact same time near enough

every single day. Same. And I don't know if that's good or bad, but I feel like I know how to change it if I want, but I don't know how to. For me, it's not so much like the same time a day. It's no fucking sense. Yeah, for me it's not so much the same time a day.

For me, it's the same point of while I'm awake. Yeah, pretty much. It's like no matter what time I wake up, an hour after I'm up, I'm shitting. Yeah. Yeah. That's why. It could be like 6 a.m.

It could be fucking 1 PM. It's like always. I need my morning shit as much as I need my morning shower. That's like, that's how ingrained it is into my cycle. That's why I'm the only one that actually had to stop the bus on tour to go shit. Just because it was like on that particular day. I can hold it. I can't hold it, man.

I woke up early. I woke up like, I say woke up early. I think we were just on a very long drive and it was like 9 a.m. and I woke up. And I'm like, oh no. I've woken up and the bus is still moving. And then I remember, I remember thinking, because I think we were driving through Utah and it was like such a beautiful landscape.

And I woke up, I go into like the living room and like our tour family is just like, oh my God, look like, look like the Utah mountains and Mike's next to me like, yo, bro, this is so fucking beautiful. And I'm like, yeah, it's beautiful. And inside I was like, I feel it coming. The shit's coming. Just distract yourself.

Just distract yourself. Look at, look at the landscape. and I remember everyone kept commenting on the landscape and all I could think about was how much I needed to shit in this very moment and how close we were. So yeah, yeah, that's a great place. To take your shit.

Literally I was like, we're pretty isolated right now. I could, maybe I could like get away with this, you know, maybe I could. Move in the wilderness. Huh? You're shitting yourself? No, going up to like, I don't care.

I was like, what, you should you show you someone on the bus? I could get away with it. I could go over like one of these mounds and no one, no one would see me. You sleep, stomach, back, side. I cannot sleep anything but on my back. Yeah, well, for me it's either back or right side. Yeah, but so I thought I was a side sleeper,

but I realize I'm more of a, like, third side, two-thirds stomach. I'm kind of like this. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So I'm kind of like side, but with my stomach leaning towards the bed. I cannot sleep on my back. I do not know why. Really?

I'm unable to sleep on my bed. I've tried many times and I cannot fall asleep. I feel like, I don't know, I feel like as. And I wanna learn. How do I learn? Do you still sleep that weren't futons as well? Yeah, yeah. Okay, okay.

Always on my sides and I kind of use my arms as like a support. Because I feel like the reason I sleep on my back was just because as a kid, you know, every time you go to Asia, sometimes you don't have a bed to sleep on. You sleep on kind of like a futon or some covers on the floor. And it's just impossible to do it. do that unless you're sleeping on your back, I feel like. I like my arms crumpled up feeling there.

I'm squishing them against the floor. Right. Feels nice. I have this thing where I like develop what I call T-Rex arms when I sleep where I'm just fucking like this. No, I do that too. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I've seen that.

My favorite, my favorite strat is the arm under the pillow. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But no one my head is just like pillow here. Right in front, right? Yeah. Right in front. I love that feeling if there's just a slight elevation. I don't know why, it's so good.

I have that. I feel like I'm in a sci-fi movie when I sleep because I need to be perfectly like straight like that like I'm going to cryosleep or something like that. I don't be terrified if I fucking rob Gant's house and I just see a man in the bed like this. Yeah. That is the man. He has a rustling. You just sit like guy just goes like what was that fucking T-100? Yeah because like sometimes if I sleep on my I've tried sleep on my side and I just wake up because sometimes I just get cramps. I don't know. Yeah. Old man. Yeah. If I sleep on like in like a weird position where it's like not.

on a normal side, maybe I'm so tired that I don't fucking care what position I sleep in. Next morning I'm stiff. Like my shoulders are fucking aching and I'm like, oh fuck, all right. One time I woke up as a kid and my head was like, so I can imagine, I don't know how to explain it, like head in the, on the bed and then my like knees,

I was like on my knees though. So I was like, oh, kind of like. You're like snailing? Kind of like a snail. Yeah, imagine a snail like that. And I was just like that, like knees on the fucking, bed and my legs were kind of like up, I guess.

Yeah, I was like, what the fuck? Do you have this problem, because I constantly have this problem with futons. I wake up and the pillow is nowhere near my head. No, I don't have that. Do you have this? No. You fighting the fucking pillow. I don't fucking know.

Like, I'm like, I clearly position myself. Pillow got hands. Yeah, I'm like, when I sleep in a futon, I always have to sleep my back. Because you know, there's less padding right between you and the floor. So I'm always sleeping on my back, head is perfectly on the pillow, like supporting my neck and I'm like,

all right, good, I just have to stay in this position. And I'm good till the morning. Wake up the next morning. I'm somehow on my fucking side, like on the corner of the futon, and I'm like, where did the pillow go? And it's like all the way up. It's just on the ceiling.

Yeah, yeah. It's just like, if the futon is here, the pillow was like down here. And I'm like, how, what the, how did that happen? Do you, okay, no matter what state of mind you're in, do you always feel like you need like a kind of like blanket or something covering you?

Yeah, yeah, always. Yeah. Because, yeah, that's something that's like remained true no matter what, Even like, even during our degenerate days, when we went to like house parties and university, of course, sometimes you get inebriated in some strangers house and I would always need something.

Even if it's on the floor, I could sleep fine. I'll find a fucking pizza box which has no installation whatsoever, but I've woken up with a pizza box that I've put over myself. Do you remember one time when we went? This is years ago, but remember one time when we also used to live near each other? We went to like a house party, I think it was Mealien's place.

And I was so fucking like just shit face that you dragged me back to your house. And I woke up the next morning with two pieces of cardboard. Oh, yeah. I actually straight up looked homeless. Like my hair was just fucked. And I'm just like lying on Connor's couch like this with two pieces of fucking like Amazon boxes. I didn't have any, because I literally just moved in. Yeah.

All I had was a couch and a bunch of cardboard boxes. He started to part a bunch of cardboard boxes on top of them to like help him, I guess. Because it was like January. Yeah, I remember this. I had no heating. And I was like, like, I woke up the next morning freezing

with these like two fucking boxes on me. I'm like, what happened? No, because I remember, I, I remember that I, because I remember taking him home with you because I thought I was like sober. I clearly wasn't sober because I remember I was, we got sitting up to the couch

and I remember asking Connor, do you have any spare blankets and he just goes, no, and then we look around. And there are all of the cardboard boxes that Connor has just finished unpacking. And we were just like, we can fashion a blanket out of this. This is fine, this is fine. Why did you stay in my house and why do they not take you to yours?

I don't know why. I don't know. I don't know. I think because we took a taxi and it was a war place. And there's a little bit of a walk from yours to mine. And I think you in your drunken state made the right decision of, I don't think he can make it. Yeah, I was like, just come lie on my cardboard box.

And yeah, yeah, because I remember thinking, yeah, I don't know Joey's, like, actual address. Yeah, and my Japanese wasn't good enough, like, direct the taxi driver back then either. So we're like, let's just, let's just stay, Conner. I remember walking out of that house, being like, Joey's so drunk. And then I'm a flight, I was like a 10 minute walk

from Conno's else. Like, I remember walking like the, like, direction I thought was going to home. I walked for what I thought was five minutes. I'm like, I remember just looking up and being like, where the fuck am I? I look at the clock. I've been walking for 30 minutes and Sydney's like,

Sydney is like, where the fuck are you? I literally had no idea where I was. And somehow in my drunken stupor, I'd walk in half an hour the wrong direction from my house, for I'd realize I was lost. So, that was a good night. That was a good night.

I got my steps in. Yeah, I got my goddamn steps in. I got my goddamn steps in. Well, hopefully you don't have to sleep with cardboard boxes tonight on you. Yeah, it's not fun. It was like minus one that day too. It was a very cold night.

I can say with certainty from experience doesn't help with the eat. Really? There's no, it was like 0.1% insulation. It's like placebo thing. It's a placebo. Just having something on top of you helps you, I did not work.

Hey, look at these patrons though. Yeah, look at all those patrons to get a good night's sleep. Sleep on their sides, all backs, or face. Definitely piss correctly. They don't piss and die.
