What's up G-Fuel enthusiasts?
Welcome back to another episode
of the Trash Tastes podcast.
That's what you came up with?
Yeah, I don't know.
That is it.
That is it.
And literally just looked at the nearest thing next to him.
I was like, uh, G-Fuel.
He's just playing I spy at this point.
Well, welcome back. I'm with the boys, as usual, Connering Gart.
Did you see by- I am Steve Handjobs there?
Steve Handjobs, you are, yes.
Steve Handjobs cosplay.
I'm so glad that you're making that a character.
I was like, every time I wear like a tuesday.
Turtle neck now?
Yeah, you're Steve Handjobs.
Why do you have showing turtlenecks?
Cause it's fucking cold in Japan, okay?
I never saw you wearing turtlenecks until this year.
And suddenly this man's got a fucking...
No, no, no, no, no.
He's always worn turtles.
No, he has.
Yes, he has.
Fuck off.
Basically, I, before, because I lived in Thailand,
so, like, all the only, like, winter clothes I had
were, like, turtle necks.
And I were just, like, every time I come to Japan,
the winter. First time I made Garni,
he was wearing like a black turtle neck.
It's like, it's like, gone during summer, Neanderthal.
Gone during winter, big brain, five head.
I'm wearing the turtleneck mother.
Like I've never, like, not gonna lie,
I've never looked good in a turtleneck,
so I've personally never worn it.
And I think Garni's the only person I know
that actually, like, rocks a turtle neck.
You have to be like kind of skinny, though, right,
to pull off the turtone.
You need to be skinny and you also need to have, like,
a neck.
Like a long neck.
Sorry, Ed.
Big Ed swing right now.
Yeah.
I just imagine Big Ed in a turlnex.
I just imagine Big Ed and a turlnex,
and it just covers in the size.
He just, he'll just look.
It just looked like roll on deodor.
I'm sorry, Ed.
Sorry, we're taking cheap shots at you, man.
I'm sorry, you're questionable, Ed, but.
Remember that was a thing in 2020,
the big Ed thing?
Big Ed, so many good memes.
That was good.
Can we just all agree that back in 2020,
which is still when we're filming this, by the way,
that my little Pog champ was the worst meme of 2020.
Can we just agree?
I don't know what meme of the year was,
but that was the worst.
But it was definitely not that fucking meme.
Let's just say that.
That like, I don't know, that meme kind of,
one, it came out of nowhere and two, it died so fast.
Well, because shit.
I know.
And I'm so glad that it was animated
so that the poor person who voiced it
didn't get fucking obliterated.
Just you imagine if there was like a person on TikTok,
it'd be like, oh my God, it's the Pog champ girl.
I guarantee there's like a number of like girls
who went on to TikTok and did like the whole voice.
Oh, yeah, yeah, there is.
I'm not gonna look.
Have you had like TikToks of people voicing over your videos?
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
So she wanted to do a lot of like anime character stuff.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And they fully dress up in costume.
I've had people doing that of just like me talking, like normally.
Like they would take a segment of me from like an answer.
So you just get a fan-dub?
Yeah. That's just a fan-down.
Like I saw a bunch where it's like someone took like really old audio of me and like an answer me simple where I'm just fucking answering a question normally.
And they're just like voicing over and acting over.
I was like, I mean, there's, there's lots of other like audio clips you could have taken that's a little more interesting.
Right?
Like, do you ever get people like impersonating your voice?
I get that a lot.
I mean, yeah, but that's because you have a distinct voice.
I guess.
I don't exactly have a distinct voice.
There's a few videos out there where people like, like, like, I think I've mentioned this
before on the podcast, right?
Where they like go around on Discord, pretending to be-
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I don't have crazy fans like you, so no.
Yeah, and what?
Do they just do like the most broken English accent?
Hello, I'm Connor.
Hello, oh my God, it's Seedog VA.
And I'm like, what?
I'm like, that is not me.
It doesn't sound like me.
Why are you believing this man?
Hello, Governor.
Literally like a terrible, a British accent.
Doesn't sound remote.
But with the deep voice.
Yeah, it just doesn't even sound remotely like,
what's going on here?
Oh, yo, oh, yo, oh, yo, what's going on here?
They'll be like, this is a C dog VA video this is.
Oh my God, it's a real C dog VA.
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, for Mike.
There's, like, they'll, like, do.
Yeah, exactly.
So, people were,
I'm personally like Sebastian,
but not like the actual Sebastian,
though I'm personally like my Sebastian.
The C dog VA Sebastian.
But they'll be like in the American accent,
how do fuck I do this?
Cause I'm so ingrained to do some British.
It'll be like, you know like Sebastian's catchphrase?
Yeah, yeah.
Simply one hell of a butler, right?
They would be like, I'm simply one hell of a butler.
And it would be like, and it was like awful
because it would sound like a half English, half American attempt
and it's like what?
And then that was a diff, that was like layered like.
Yeah.
That was hard to do.
I was like, how do I break my own?
100% of your brain power to do that.
A British person impersonating an American person,
impersonating a British person.
I'd be like, I would hear these voices they would do
and I'm like, there's no way they're gonna believe that.
And then the moment they do it, they're like,
it's sea dog, oh my God.
And I'm like, what? This isn't me.
And then there was someone as well
who went on like voice acting website
to be me called It's Connor or something.
It's Connor.
And they would go around making references to my videos.
Like I fucking reference myself.
Like I go around being like,
oh yeah,
I just remember that time I was Sebastian, you know, good times.
Like, who the fuck references themselves?
That's, that's some like Tommy Wise-Oh shit.
You know what I mean?
Like, who actually does that?
Like it's the only thing you have, right?
It's like, I've made it now.
I'm done making new stuff.
I'm just gonna reference myself until I'm,
like, what?
And people are like, shit, it's sea dog.
Yeah.
He said the thing, so it must be him.
It infuriates me to death,
because I'm like, if this is all it takes
to get you to believe this is me,
I hope your credit card gets stolen.
You deserve it.
Like you had it comment if you think that's-
Yeah, true.
No, seriously, like, I haven't had people
impersonating my voice, but I've had people like,
you know, kind of trying to do it
by just speaking in a shitty Australian accent.
Yeah.
And sometimes the voice is totally not me.
It's a completely different voice,
but because they're speaking in like a semi-like,
right, right.
Oh, I'm fucking Australian, eh?
It is pretty funny how like,
how much room people are willing to give
for interpretation.
I've not seen any TikToks,
but I've had to get
exactly the same like comments of like some random YouTuber
who like is reviewing anime clips or something
in a slight British accent and they're like,
oh my God, it's gigac, it's fucking gigac.
And not just the thing that annoys me more actually
is not on YouTube or TikTok, but it's on Twitter where anyone,
apparently anyone Southeast Asian who posts like a selfie now
who is also into anime is just like, oh my god, you look like gigac, you do.
Oh my God, I have so many fucking photos of people like just like random Indian
celebrities.
And people are just like, yo, I thought that was Joey.
What the fuck?
Like I had a guy, my sister even sent me one.
It was like, she found like on TV
there was this like Bollywood like movie
or I guess like some Bollywood show
that they were like promoting on an ad or something.
And apparently like one of the dudes
just straight up like apparently looked like me
and I'm like he's just the brown man
with like a beard.
Like that doesn't make it.
Apparently every brown man with a beard is me.
Yeah, I get that with white.
Like every white dude with a beard on TikTok,
it's like for some reason.
I was like, they say I looked like Cito.
I'm like, what the fuck?
No.
Is there like any moment where that kind of like,
like, oh, that you look like so-and-so person
has been kind of flattering?
I've only had one example of that.
And that's when people said that I look like,
what was it, a cracked-out Jason Mamoa?
It's like, oh, you look like Jason Mamoa
if he didn't work out.
And I was like, yeah, you're like,
And I was like, yeah, I'll take that.
Jason Momoy was a fucking good-looking dude.
I think I had like Benedict Cumberbatch once,
but I was like,
you know, like, Benedict Cumberbac.
No, right, right.
I used to have, like, really big, like curly hair
that looked similar to him, so my parents
was a joke that I was like him.
And I'm cool, because I was also like...
British.
Yeah, pretty.
Yeah, I know.
Oh, he's British, my kid, eh!
He's a British man, therefore he looks like
better did cummabomboe.
I was like, no, I don't.
I don't look like that fucking man.
I'm sorry.
He's nice, he's fun.
We like it, we like it, we have fun.
Do I have one, Gant?
I don't know.
Gant's too distinct.
Yeah, there's a very distinct thing.
Because like, nobody really knows anything
about Southeast Asia.
So now it's just like, every, it's like,
we're like the new just like Japanese or Chinese people right now.
Because now they're like Chinese and like Japanese culture
has been more like, and Koreans have been like more.
Like, like, globalized.
Like our Southeast Asians are just sitting here
in our own corner being like, you know,
there's more than like one country here as well guys, you know?
It's gone from like, I can't tell the difference
between Japanese, Koreans and Chinese,
too, I can't tell the difference between Thai,
Filipinos and Malaysians, Malaysians.
Yeah.
Fuck, I feel called out.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha.
But not, I smell like half the memes
on like our subreddit, it's just like a different white person
with a beard and it's just like, oh my God.
It's Connor.
It's Connor.
It's a monkey brain.
I got no beard now actually.
Well, I mean, I just shaved it like two days ago.
Oh, wait.
The amount of memes, though, of like you,
the baby face is hilarious.
Yeah.
I do look like a 10 year old without a beard.
Someone fucking posted on the subredder
this like old ass photo of me in a suit.
Have you guys seen?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I was like, why?
How do they find that?
Is it on Google?
It's on my Instagram, I thought.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, it's like the second ever photo
I put up on Instagram.
It was like six years old or something.
You do look so sad as a baby.
I know, I was like, fuck, how old was I?
Like 20, maybe?
Yeah, you just looked at the kind of kid
who was like, get me out of here.
Yeah, I did, yeah.
I regret putting that photo off.
It's not a good photo.
I mean, for me, I feel like I haven't changed much,
like my look apart from, the only thing that's changed
is the spikeiness of my hair over the years.
You've calmed down, you've calmed down.
You can tell the giguck years by the younger I am,
like the more spikes in the hair, like there are.
You look at some of my first videos, and I look like fucking Saskey, man.
I'm wondering, right?
Like, how did you decide on that hairstyle?
Because that's like, that's a look, right?
Is that, like, hair you've had since we were young?
to a young or?
No, I think, I can't remember.
I just remember, because I have like hair
that's really easy to be spiked up, right?
So I think ever since I was young.
What constitutes hair that's easy to spike up?
Like light and, uh.
Yeah, oh, okay.
I mean, like, could you spike up your hair?
Yeah, easily.
If I had it, no, no, no,
because my hair, like, if I cut it short,
I put a bit of water in it and it just like,
immediately, like, naturally, it's just like,
the fucking anime character spikey.
A lot of, like, Asian hair has that too,
because like, my hair is also, like,
quite strawy.
So, like, if I put gel
in it and it's just fucking up forever.
Oh, I don't know.
Like, yeah, no, I get that.
But like, but then again, it's like,
just because your hair can do that.
Doesn't mean you have to, like,
to meet with it, right?
Was it, okay, was it inspired by anime?
No, no, it wasn't inspired by.
What was he inspired by?
It was inspired by, there's only,
there's only so many hairstyles I could pull off
and I had no idea what the fuck I was doing with my hair.
Therefore, look, it was the hairstyle
that took the least amount of effort to do,
because all that, no, no, no, no, no, no.
It was not, okay, it was not,
because like I said, my hairstyle
is just naturally spikey, so all I would need to do,
just put a bit of water, put a bit of gel,
and just go,
no, because you had like,
it was done.
You had like, it naturally, like,
it naturally went to that shape.
Naturally Sonic the headshot.
Yeah, naturally Sonic the headshed.
I just woke up and I was Sonic, you know,
like, what can I say?
No, because like, I remember in some older videos,
your hair is like so, it looked like a wig.
That's like, that's how, that's how perfect the spike
I was like this man could pass off
as like a side character in Yu-Gio.
It was like you'd been watching too many
like David Bowie concerts.
And you were like, all right, I like that.
I'm gonna, I'm a mimic that basically.
That's what it looked at.
Yeah, I wasn't trying to mimic anything.
I had no, I just had like no idea what the fuck.
It was like some guy who was like trying
to bring back like the 80s glamour scene.
Because it's like, whatever the Mr. Anime,
you talking about that video pops up.
Oh my God.
It's so funny watching that and seeing God,
just like with like this teenage hair.
Yeah, just being really sad.
Yeah.
I feel bad, but like, because obviously you're my mate,
I'm like, oh, that's funny.
The thumb now, like, if you didn't know the context
and you just saw the thumbnail,
it looks like the most, like, angsty fucking video.
It is, it is, it is.
I can't focus because your fucking hair
is like Sonic the Hedgehog,
when you're talking about, like, 60% of the frame.
You're talking about, like,
arguably like the most serious thing ever,
and you've got like this fucking Sonic hair.
And I can't focus on it.
Yeah, because I'm just talking about,
yeah, this guy just like, kill his family.
Yeah.
Bro, that fucking hair though, that fucking son-a-air.
Meanwhile, this man's hair has its own orbit.
Oh my God.
Well, yes, welcome to trash taste where we are.
We're trash on each other's haircuts.
Now we're trashing on each other's haircuts.
As good mates do.
I mean, that's what we do.
That's what constitutes as a man.
Like, can you really call your mate a maid
if they don't make fun of you after a haircut?
Okay, like, did you read,
what age did you reach where you actually, like,
paid attention and gave a shit about what you looked like.
Because I was like really fucking left.
Really fucking late.
Yeah, because literally the reason I looked like that
was because I didn't really give a shit
about what I looked like until I got to like
my first second year of uni.
Yeah, I was probably about the same.
Did you ever have any interest in dating
when you were, you know, in, no.
You didn't never want to date a girl in school.
I mean, I was on an all-boys school.
I mean, of course I think.
I don't want to do.
I love my boys, but not like that, right?
It's like, yeah, I invite him to kiss ex-sist.
Yeah, yeah.
We don't kiss, we don't kiss.
We'll have a session kiss ex-sex,
I don't care what you look like, it's all right.
Yeah.
No, like, yeah, I guess maybe it's because I went to a boy school
that, not to say that I didn't hang out with girls.
Man, I fucking would love to have gone to a boy school.
Yeah, even got the pressure of having to fucking
try and get a girlfriend, yeah,
trying to get a girlfriend just because everyone else is getting one.
Yeah, I mean, you know, not to say that I didn't have any interest
in dating, but it's just like, it wasn't a priority for me.
But I was speed running them in school, man.
I never had one that lasted more than like two weeks.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
I mean, that was school relationships in the night.
I had won that lasted like three months,
and the boys were like, damn, you lost three months.
If you last more than-
Three months is a long time.
Yeah, that's a-
school, it's a long time.
That's a dedicated relationship.
Anything beyond a month is like, okay,
I am dedicated to-
they're probably getting married,
you know what I mean?
Exactly, it's like one step away from marriage,
right, but it's three months like, damn.
My life's set already after this.
I think I must have started paying attention
to like how I looked at maybe,
well, okay, I see how I looked,
the hair, basically.
Like everything else was like,
what am I gonna wear a fucking school outfit, you know?
Oh yeah.
My mom still bought all my clothes,
so like, yeah.
I know.
I'm not gonna lie, I didn't start buying my own clothes
until I moved out.
No, same here, same here.
Like my mom was just like, yeah,
I got this nice t-shirt, it was like some shitty,
like $5 t-shirt from Target, I was like, yeah, fuck, I'll wear that.
My mom still buys me clothes and sends them.
Really?
It sucks that she's fucking better taste than me.
You know what's weird?
Arki's mom buys me clothes,
but my own mother doesn't anymore.
Too bad, I remember us, we did a shoot,
like a week ago, and I remember Joey had to borrow
one of your t-shirts.
I'm just seeing Joey in one of your, like, t-shirts,
I'm just like, this is such a Connor shirt.
Because it was just like, it was just like a plain t-shirt.
It's literally that, but a different color.
It's a plain t-shirt in a drab color.
And I'm just like, man, this just screams Connor right now.
It's a color that I would never buy
and is a color that Connor would definitely buy.
It's take, okay, this is gonna be one of those weird Connor things, right?
Right.
Only like last year, have I been open to the idea
with owning shirts that have nothing but plain color.
Right.
For some reason, in my head.
Is it because you don't like logos?
I hated logos and prints.
They drove me insane.
Really?
I don't know, for some reason, it just looked cheap to me.
And always, and that's, I mean, it's kind of like,
it's kind of like, it's normally that cheaper these, these, these guys.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean, it depends.
Because it, some, some, some of them can look very tacky.
And I feel like there's a fine line between having a cool print
and having, like, a cool piece of artwork that just looks tacky on a t-shirts.
Yeah, yeah. Like, you know, it's the whole concept of like simple as best.
Yeah, yeah.
Sometimes, you know, that's like the whole reason
like all those like high brand shirts
and shit like that are so fucking simple.
I mean, I think that's what changed my opinion
of like fashion in general is like I have started
to be more open to spending a bit more money on clothes.
Because at the end of the day, it's like,
all right, I'm wearing this shit
for like how many months?
Yeah, I'm gonna be on camera as well especially.
So like I wanna wear shirts, I mean, you know, today I'll see.
I still got a little bit of the old me left.
Yeah, obviously recently I've been like,
okay, I'm willing to spend like,
oh, I might spend 80 bucks on a t-shirt,
which is unthinkable.
to me three years ago.
Oh yeah, absolutely.
Because bear in mind, in university,
I used to go to Primark, which we don't know
what Prime Mark is in the UK.
I've been to Prime Mark.
Yeah, so.
Prime Mark's amazing, by the way.
It's basically- If you're about shit
on Prime Mark, I'm gonna fight you on that.
Well, I mean, it's, you know,
I don't want to question how they make the shirts
so damn cheap.
I'm sure there's some ethical questions.
Yeah.
I remember I specifically bought eight T-shirts
for 10 pounds, which is like $15.
It's amazing.
And I fucking love these shirts,
because they were all plain, nothing on them.
And I wore them for like two years straight,
these shirts.
They were fucked by the end of it.
For real, though, Primark is like one of the best
low budget kind of clothing brands
I've ever seen globally.
Yeah, honestly, like the shit you can get
for the price at Primark, which I don't know
where Primark's available internationally.
It's in Europe, I think.
Is it in Europe?
Yeah, it's like if you want a budget place
where you can just buy cheap clothes
that don't look cheap, you know what I mean?
Because people said Uniclo here is cheap
and we have Uniclo in the UK.
It's not cheap.
Uniclo compared to
Prime Mark is like very cheap.
Uniclo is cheap for the quality that you get.
Yeah, yeah.
Like you'll pay a little bit extra for like a t-shirt at Uniclo,
but that shit's gonna last you like 10 plus years.
I bought a whole suit from Primark for like $40.
But I've-30 pounds.
The 30 pounds set, yeah.
Yeah, I did exactly the same for my prom and everything.
My graduation, I wore a $40 suit.
And actually, I hate to say it, but it's like,
it doesn't look that bad.
Really?
It's not bad.
That's the thing.
I mean, Prime Mark,
I basically carried my university years.
You know what I mean?
But there's a big butt.
And a lot of people in the UK tend to also
have the same mindset, I think,
where a t-shirt should never cost more than 20, 30 pounds.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Which I can understand, because if you know,
you haven't got a lot of money, spending that much
on one t-shirt, it's quite a lot, it's quite a lot.
Yeah.
But, you know, as I started to, I think that's where
my hatred of Pritz started,
is that I thought a lot of these Primark ones
are pretty fucking shit.
Yeah, yeah.
And they often do look super tacky.
And I don't really like the collaborations.
They have like SpongeBob
and shit and then all that, you know, they're like,
oh, yeah, we stuck a PlayStation logo on.
I think they're just starting to do anime as well.
Yeah, they are.
I feel like, was it last year
where they did like a DBZ or One Piece collaboration as well?
Yeah, there's been a lot of stores like that,
like Forever 21 as well before they went under,
like they did this like huge fucking thing with anime.
So like every time I went to Forever 21,
there was always like this entire section of anime.
But when you look at it, when you actually go over to it,
it's just like, all right, let's see what they have.
It's all like, Sailor Moon, Dragon Balls,
It's always the fucking basics.
Yeah, it's all the basic shit.
Don't give me that shit.
And it's not even done in like a creative way either.
It's just like, let's just slap the logo
and the main character.
Yeah, like doing anime clothes is really hard.
And I'm probably gonna about to like call out
like a bunch of our viewers by saying this,
but like the ones I hate the most
are the ones where it's just like,
it's just a t-shirt with a wifu on it.
Oh, you know what I mean?
Or like an anime logo.
Like those kinds of clothes I call like anime convention clothes.
Because it's, it's a t-shirt
or clothes that I would only wear it
an anime convention, but there's no way I would wear it.
You know what I call clothes like that?
What? Pajamas.
This is the only time I'm fucking wearing it
is when I need to wear something in bed.
There's probably someone watching this right now
and like a fucking arson t-shirt to be like,
oh, but I like this.
Yeah, I mean, and then like, I think as well,
going back to the whole cheap versus expensive stuff
for clothes, like it's only because I think
because I moved to Japan and actually started seeing
like some of the clothes that I like really like
and it's like kind of expensive, but you're like,
I am gonna wear this a lot.
Like when I paid like 350 bucks, fuck for that Diavolo,
sorry, King Crimson jacket.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like when I bought that,
that was the most expensive thing I'd ever bought,
like clothes-wise and I thought, oh my God,
this is insane.
But that's- this peak.
This is insane, $350 on a fucking jacket.
Okay, it's sexy, look on screen, it's sexy.
But now that I've been wearing it,
I wear it like pretty much every day.
Yeah, like I'm like, okay,
if I'm wearing it every day, you know,
and I get like maybe four or five years out of that.
That's like 20, 20, 20, you're getting it back for you.
I understand that because I always thought that way with tech, right?
Like to me it's like don't buy a $20 headset, buy $100 at least.
Yeah, because you're gonna get your money's worth.
And I don't know why for some reason took me so long
to have that with fashion.
And I think going back to the whole topic,
which is school and why I didn't give a fuck,
is because I just didn't care for clothes,
I didn't really understand fashion at all.
I mean, who does?
I mean, I, I, I, there was always that one kid
in your school who somehow always fucking dressed amazing to shit.
Do you don't have that kid?
I didn't have that kid.
I didn't have that kid.
did not have that kid. I always, I don't know,
I had kind of like a similar view of fashion which is just,
I didn't get it. I didn't understand anyone who would spend
above like, yeah, $20 or like $30 on the T-shirt.
I think my mom would like scoff if my,
if an outfit was over a total $50, she'd be like, look,
get a lot of this guy. Yeah. I think that's the thing though.
It was that, at least with me, there was this like,
because it was a boy school, but there was this whole, I guess,
like stigma of if you dress well,
if you dress well, then you're gay.
like that whole shit, right?
So I think people just, I'm sure there were boys
who actually did give a shit about fashion
and did it, but they didn't want to with the,
because they're probably worried about getting beaten up.
And like, I get that, you know?
Like it's like, yes, a fedora might seem quite fashionable,
you know, in the common eye, but why would you wear that
if you don't wanna get bullied, you know?
Yeah, true.
Like I like wearing fedoras.
I think they look fucking cool with the right outfit,
but the problem is, I'm gonna agree with Joe.
Really?
Yeah.
I feel like the big problem with fedoras
is that the fucking neck beard community
just ruined, completely ruined that image.
This is like the Hitler mustache.
You can't wear it because Hitler's ruined it.
Well, exactly.
It's the same thing with the fedora.
You can't do it because you're gonna,
everyone's like, in-sal.
That's the thing, that's the thing.
But it's like, but that's the problem.
I feel is that a lot of the reasons
why fedora is just commonly seen
as that type of, you know, negative thing
is because the hat itself is fine.
It's what you pair it with.
that just makes it look like absolutely dog shit.
Well, you're either gonna look like a neck beard
or you're gonna look like a rip off Michael Jackson.
There's like no in between.
I mean, I'd rather look like a rip off Michael Jackson
than a fucking neck beard, right?
But like, I've seen...
Then you can truly enjoy your lolly wife's.
I'm out, I'm out.
Like I've seen, like, fashion magazines of like dudes
who like, you know, wear a fedora
or like a hat of some kind that's similar to a fedora
in like a really nice suit.
Yeah.
And they can match that shit really well.
But those are like the most fucking attractive men on the planet.
But that's what I'm sure.
saying, right? And that's the other problem is that there are no attractive men who wear
fedores. I'm just saying, I'm just preaching to the choir right now, but you know that's true.
I mean, I'm not going to lie and pretend I know how fashion works, you know, I'm no fucking
fashionist. No, we're not fashion. God's fucking Thailand's next top problem.
Fucking Steve Handjobs, like, let me teach you about fashion. I mean, I feel like having that one
kid in school who elevated the game really fucking. Elevated the game. He elevated the game.
the game in school.
He was the benchmark.
He was the trend set of bro.
He's really making me look fucking bad, you know?
When he turns up with his jeans with holes in them,
I'm like, how can we compete?
I don't have holes in my jeans.
Oh, wait, because you guys didn't wear like school uniforms.
No, we did.
No, we, we wore school uniforms.
Oh, okay, yeah.
And we had some days where you could,
you would pay for like charity.
Yeah, you would pay like a pound to dress in normal clothes.
Why do we do that?
I don't know.
Well, yeah, we, so, yeah, we so we have this thing,
in UK school was called Own Clothes Day.
Yeah, right?
Own Clothes Day.
Where we have like one day in like the term or something
where we could just come in in our own clothes.
I hated it.
Oh yeah, we had that.
Yeah, yeah, we had that.
I was speaking to Sydney and apparently like she,
in her high school, they didn't have school uniforms.
No.
Yeah, they just-
Because American high schools don't wear uniforms.
Yeah, yeah.
School uniforms are big brain
because you always wear the same shit every day.
Yeah, right, it's great.
You don't have to worry about like,
oh, I wore the same t-shirt for three days in a row
because yeah.
Yeah, that's a big reason why I didn't give a shit
about fashion until like later in life.
Which is because most, most days of the year,
I was wearing a fucking school uniform.
Yeah, you know what I mean?
And although, although I say that, the fashion,
like, whoever designed my school uniform, like,
deserves a slap because like, okay, so in our high school,
like, you have to wear, there's a set piece
that you have to wear from when you're seventh grade
to 10th grade.
And then when you enter 11th and 12th grade,
you're like senior.
So you get to wear like a senior blazer
and like long pants and shit like that.
The senior uniform is fine.
It looks dope as fuck.
It's basically just a suit essentially.
Right.
But the junior uniform is a little,
because for one, everyone has to wear shorts.
Okay.
Because you know, it's hot most of the year in Australia,
so you wear shorts.
But then on top of that, you have to wear long socks.
Okay.
Yeah, I'm talking like up to,
like the fucking, like knee, long socks.
Like anime girl longs.
Like anime girl long, like, these like gray, like knitted, like long socks.
Someone had a fetish.
Yeah, someone had a fetish.
So like basically there's just these like
seventh to 10th grade kids running around.
We're basically just only showing their fucking knee.
Was your school run by like Herbert the Pervert or something?
I don't know.
I mean, I'm not gonna get into that.
But yeah, so I fucking hated that.
But, and of course, because,
because I went to a private school.
If you didn't wear your thing properly,
you'd get fucking punished for it.
So it's like, oh, I can see your shins.
You're gonna get a fucking slap for that.
You pull your socks up.
It's like, yeah.

Back to the episode.
So in British schools it goes secondary school,
no, primary school, then secondary school, then sixth form.
Which is part of secondary school normally.
Kind of, kind of.
So like our high school is secondary school
and sixth form like put together.
That's like the same.
Why does a skip from two to six?
No, no, okay, so it's called secondary school
because it's the second school that you go to.
Right.
So and then you start at age 12 and then you can,
oh, it's mandatory now, right?
You have to do sixth form now, right?
Yeah, yeah.
So it used to be you could leave at 16.
Yeah.
And you could go and, you know, you could go and work
or you could get an apprenticeship.
And then there was always an optional if you want to go to university,
you have to stay an extra two years.
Yeah, which normally has about, at least in my school,
like half the kids left at 16.
Yeah, so in Australia that would be junior high and senior high.
Right, okay, okay.
So it's like we have high school, so we have primary school
and high school as well.
And high school is from seventh grade to 12th grade.
The seventh grade when you're like age 12, 13?
13, okay, okay.
And then you can leave at year 10,
which is like, I guess, the end of secondary
for you guys.
And then the last two years is senior high school.
And that's like 16 to 18.
And that's 16 to 18, then you go to uni.
Yeah, so that's what it was like in the UK.
Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay.
And like when I was in sixth form,
so I was in my last two years,
they tried to introduce to the school like blazes,
because we didn't wear blazers.
Yeah, we had blazes.
Well, we were a public school,
so blazes were like, oh, we'll get a load
of these people.
So, and there was like outrage
because they were like,
because, right, here's the thing.
The school uniform, you can only buy from like a special place, right?
You can't just get it on Amazon.
Right, right, right.
And they were charging like 70 pounds for the blazer.
Right. And obviously this is a public school.
And seven pounds, like 100 bucks.
And for some parents, it's like way too much.
Yeah, yeah.
So they were like, what the fuck?
No, we don't want a fucking blazer.
And there's a whole like outrage about it.
Right. And then eventually they were like, fine, fine.
Okay, because the older kids are leaving,
they don't need to wear blazers.
So I didn't have to wear ones.
It was very fun watching.
So wait, it wasn't mandatory?
So what was your school uniform in a...
It was just a time.
So, so, so, so,
In England we call sixth form college as well,
which gets a bit confusing.
Oh, really?
Because when we say, when we say college,
we mean sixth form, not most of the time.
But you can go to college.
You can go to actual college.
No, no, where college isn't college.
College in the UK is one or two years, right,
of like a specialized thing that you can then
use to then go to university.
Oh, we call that something different.
No, we have that college, that's college.
Yeah, but we have sixth form college
and then we have whatever preschool university.
Is that called?
I believe those two of the same institutions,
if I'm correct.
Because in Australia, we don't even call it college.
Like we don't use that word.
Well, college is, that's why I'm an American say,
are you going to college?
We're like, no, no, no, no.
We're going to university.
Yeah, we're going to uni.
It's like the Winnie Phoo meme, where it's like,
college, university.
Because college is something entirely different
to British people.
Yeah, yeah, it is.
Yeah, I mean, anyway, yeah, they were outraged.
So half the school didn't have to fucking wear blazers
and half the young kids did.
So that was fun.
You could just be like fucking, you know,
look at this fucking little 10 year old
is a little blazer.
No, we fucking loved the blazer.
Like, the blazer was the best bit.
I don't wanna wear a blazer.
Because you weren't supposed to,
but the teachers got so fucking darn with it
that you could just wear hoodies
over your school uniform.
Oh, really? Yeah, yeah.
Man, they must have, like,
wear the rules in this school, man.
No, because in, for us in the winter, right,
like, if it was just a regular, just white t-shirt underneath,
it'd be way too fucking cold.
Yeah. So sometimes you'd have,
like, you'd have to wear the blazer
just to stay warm, because the other option we had
was this like, our school colors were black and red.
So,
What are you fucking like the evil school in our walls?
Yeah, right, like, so it was black and red.
So like we had this like, if you didn't wanna wear a blazer,
you had to wear this fucking bright red, white,
like woolen fucking like sweater.
Yeah, we have something like that,
but it was green, like moss green.
But yeah, I know the exact color.
But ours was like bright red,
like the reddest red you can think of.
So you just fucking stick out in a crowd, right?
I mean, at least you had like pretty colors.
Well, ours was like drab purple.
Yeah, but like, yeah, but the problem was is that,
because it was like a wool thing,
it was so fucking itchy.
Like it doesn't matter how many times you wash that shit,
you're just like, fuck, I'm warm, but ow, fuck this.
So people were just like, fuck it.
I'm just gonna like spend the hundred bucks on the blazer
because it's, I don't wanna wear this itchy-ass
fucking like grandma's sweater shit.
No, because I remember in my sixth form,
I knew I was a fucking grown up in my sixth form.
Cause like, we went to like the cool sixth form
because they let us wear our own clothes
And this was the big thing.
We were allowed to call our teachers by their first name.
Oh.
That was like bringing up to the next level, man.
Dude, like, we could only do that, but like,
it was a fucking Kaiji gamble every time, right?
It was like, fuck, do I call you Mr. Smith,
or do I just call you James?
Yes, I remember one student did that in my class
and he'd be like, what fuck do you call me?
You basically like said that.
I thought that so many times.
Especially towards the female teachers.
It's like, excuse me, Margaret,
And she's just like, what the fuck?
You don't you just call me?
Holy shit.
Bro, I remember, I said this flashback to something.
Okay.
I remember I did like, so we had to do a presentation during,
do you have registration in Australia?
For what?
Were you basically when you get to school,
you did a separate class of, like registration
to say that you're here and you've arrived.
Oh, like orientation, stuff like that?
I guess, yeah, orientation for maybe Americans.
It's like a quick 15 minute thing where everyone just goes
and says, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm here.
Fuck, I forgot what that was called.
It was called like,
Is that registration?
Home class?
Home class?
We had a Welsh room for it.
Right, right.
Home room, that's it.
Home room, yeah.
That's American, fuck, Joe.
Yeah.
Now we called a home room, yeah.
Well, we, in my school,
would you call it registration English,
but I could get a Welsh word for it that I forgot,
so I don't fucking know.
But we'd do like a short presentation.
What?
Between like, it would always be one of the students
presentation each day.
Why would you have to do a presentation?
On what?
Just about something you fucking learn.
It's just about the fucking pretentious bullshit.
At the start of the day?
Yeah, you have to do a quick presentation
about something you've learned.
Oh my God, that sounds awful.
So I was like, I was like 14, right?
And we all fucking hated it.
And this teacher was horrible.
So my best mate in school had a really bad, like stuttering problem.
You got a lot better now, but everyone, like, loved this guy.
Everyone just wanted to see him do well.
And this one teacher was so fucking rude to him about his stutter.
And it was so, and everyone was like,
yo, all my homies hate that teacher.
So we were all just like, we all took it in turns,
like trying to see how much we could troll in these presentations.
Yeah.
I was like, you know what I'm gonna present?
9-11 conspiracy theories.
I shit you not, I shit you not.
And I dead ass think I got the teacher to believe me.
Right.
And I'm like, so I came in, I was like, moon landing, fake.
Like what is the biggest conspiracy theory?
Like this, like Steve Jobs in a TED talk, right?
I was like, listen, look at this.
I did the wingdings thing with the flight number.
And I was like, look, it's two towers,
and the star of Israel, I rest my case.
And everyone was like,
everyone was like, no way, is that right?
Because everyone's like 14.
The teacher wasn't that, it wasn't that,
they were like, what the fuck, this is insane, whoa.
And it was just so fucking funny.
Cause I never got told off for that.
Really?
No.
I think for some reason, I think they thought
I was super genuine about my belief of it.
But obviously, they didn't want to like,
trash on your beliefs.
You just said it with enough conviction
that they were still like, he must be right.
It must be fucking right.
It wasn't just like the way.
I think said a bunch of other stuff,
but that was like the big piece of evidence
where I was like, look, Microsoft planned 9-11.
That's so funny.
I do not know how I got away with doing that,
because that is bad.
Yeah.
Fucking hell.
I don't know how-
We didn't do anything during like home room.
No.
I feel like the school just implemented that
to give the teachers their 15-minute smoke break
before the beginning, right?
Well, it's because our teacher was one of those teachers,
the one who did it,
because we didn't have any lessons at that,
but she was always that one who was like,
you should be constantly learning and advancing yourself.
And I'm like, hell no, I wanna play Modern Warfare too at home.
What you gonna fucking prepare?
Dude, like for us, like Home Room was just coming together
and just fucking getting on our shitty iPhone 3s
and playing Doodle Jump together.
Like that was the only thing we did.
I don't think I even had like a Home Room segment or session.
Segment of the second.
Segment of the fucking school day or whatever you want.
Thinks it was life in episodes.
The Home Room, Mark.
Season one, season two.
Oh my God.
I didn't have anything like that.
But yeah, let's talk about some current topics
that aren't just nostalgic trips back to high school.
We talk about high school and shit so much.
But I mean, it's some fucking funny stories.
It's the prologue to our life.
It's great memories.
People listening to this who are still in high school
won't understand, but once you're out of high school,
you'll understand. You'll look back on them.
Man, you sound like such a grandpa saying that.
You'll look back to your high school one day.
I remember back in the day when we only had three our phones.
No, but what's the, I guess the big news, quote-unquote?
Yeah, other than attack on Titan.
Yeah, other than Attack on Titan, of course, everyone's fucking loved it.
Probably gonna be all news by the time this episode is.
Yeah, everyone's fucking loving that.
But I guess like some news that is more industry driven
is the whole Funimation and Cruncherol thing, right?
Got bought up by Sony.
Yeah, so Sony buying out Crunchyroll.
Yeah.
Basically having control of like most of the
the big anime companies in.
Basically just monopolize the Western market.
I mean, it is, it is slightly worrying
from an art when you hear that initially.
Yeah, yeah.
That's a lot of market share that Sony has.
Yeah.
Like how would, at what point would it be considered a Sony,
like, I guess for a monopoly if they had like Netflix, right?
Yeah, I feel like if they had Crunchyroll, Funimation,
and Netflix, then it would be like, came over.
Then it would be like 99% basically.
Because basically, I think the only other company
is probably Senti Filmworks who do high dive.
Yeah.
And- Is High-Dive still going?
High-Dive's still going.
Shit.
Fuck, hi-dive, I'm so sorry, I didn't know.
I guess it's not available outside the US, right?
So it's- No, it's available in the UK as well.
Is it? Yeah.
Fuck, I didn't know that.
But I, the problem with High-Dive is that I don't know
how many big, like, exclusive titles that they have.
I mean, how can you compete, right?
Yeah, because the only, the only thing that I've watched,
like, the only big exclusive I've watched out of High-Dive
is probably Legend of the Coles
Galactic Heroes.
And that's like, that's like a fucking old, old.
No, like the old.
Oh, the OG one.
So they're the only service that have licensed the OG Legend
on the Galactic Heroes.
Oh, wow.
And I feel like, I don't know how many other exclusives they have
outside of that.
I've never used high-dive.
Yeah, because I know Made in Abyss, I watched that on Amazon Strike,
back when that was a thing, remember Amazon Strike?
Remember Amazon Strike?
Have Amazon stopped buying anime now?
Because like, I don't know what anime they've been.
they're getting anymore.
They've got anything?
No, they're still getting.
The problem with Amazon is that they can-
They buy one big show.
They want, like last year they had Vinlan Targa.
Yeah, yeah.
But the big problem with Amazon is that they sometimes get big shows,
but I- They don't know how to market it.
I fucking hate, like, watching anime on Amazon,
because they, I don't know what shows they have half the time.
Right, right, right, right.
Like, they actually have quite a lot of anime,
but nobody knows about this,
because nobody fucking watches anime on Amazon.
Yeah, not to mention that,
I think just the general problem with Amazon is that they don't know
how to market it.
Yeah, yeah.
Like you find out usually secondhand from someone
who's like, oh, I watch Vinlan Saga on Amazon
and you're just like, Vinland Saga is Amazon, what the fuck?
I mean, Amazon is Vinlan Saga?
Yeah.
Like actually watching it isn't bad.
Like the player's really good and I don't know
like what fucking conversion they're using,
but like man it looks crisp as fuck.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But God damn is it horrible to use their fucking platform.
Yeah. Yeah.
Holy shit, dude.
I'm like, am I renting this shit or am I like streaming?
It's not clear half the fucking time.
Exactly.
Yeah.
I didn't mean to rent Borat.
Why am I watching Barat?
I try to watch fucking anime.
What the fuck, Amazon.
Fucking shit.
And then also, because now, obviously we're using,
I'm using Amazon Prime in Japan.
Yeah.
Amazon did that fucking pro gamer move of being like,
yeah, no subtitles for other languages
outside of this country.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So if I wanna watch it, I have to buy Prime,
which I have in Japan and Prime in the UK or the US,
which is just fucking stupid.
Does Prime even work for you here?
Like UK Prime work for you here?
No, you can't do that.
Because it doesn't work for me.
No, no, you need to use, you have prime,
but it's probably Japanese prime,
which doesn't offer any English subtitles.
Yeah.
And obviously because they're like,
we don't want people going on to other countries
and buying stuff, which kind of makes sense,
but also why?
Like, who cares?
Like, it's 2020, I don't know why licensing laws
haven't caught up to the fact that
it's a global fucking media now.
If you're not gonna, if you're gonna limit it
to one country, people are gonna find a way to,
you know, find other ways to watch it
because people are gonna watch it, whatever happens.
Like, most people,
Like, because I see these threads on like,
on Reddit where they're like,
bro, if you buy Netflix now in Turkey,
you can get it for like $2.
And I'm like, but that seems like a lot of fucking effort.
Like, do I really care about that much?
Oh, I'm glad that if I put all that effort in,
I can save a whole $4.
Yeah, and then you gotta keep using a VPN
when you log in to do that shit anyway.
So you're already paying for the VPN anyway.
Yeah, and it's like, oh, it's not worth the fucking effort, man.
Like, do I really need this?
No, I don't, who cares?
Like, I'll just, I just want it in the country that I'm in,
I don't have to fuck around with VPNs.
Don't make this hard for me.
Yeah.
And Amazon obviously made it.
They're like, how do we make it as hard as possible?
Every single.
So that no one used to.
How do we make it so that you accidentally buy a dildo
instead of watching Vinlan song?
That's basically like the Amazon Prime experience.
Do we have any like, I guess,
because there is very little information
about the whole like Sony acquisition.
Right. Yeah, I mean it's still very early days now.
Wait, Malene, how much was it for?
How much was, because we don't know.
Funimation buying, or Sony buying Funimation
or Sony buying puncher?
Both, both.
So Sony, when they bought 95% of it.
That's right, they did do that, didn't it?
143?
For Funimation.
For Funimation.
For Crunchy roll, it's around 1.2 billion.
Fuck.
Wasn't Amazon only like 900 million?
Can he say that number again?
One point two billion dollars?
That's more than...
GG CrunchRoll.
That's more than Amazon bought Twitch for, yeah.
Jesus Christ.
Oh my God.
The question that I want to know...
143 for Funimation.
Yeah, yeah, that's already surprising.
But like the biggest question I have is like...
It's like, all right, cool, Sony, you have all this fucking money, right,
to spend on Crunch Roll and Funimation.
That's fine.
But in my opinion, it's just like, what are you gonna do with it?
Is the question.
I mean, I guess...
Because when Sony back in the day bought the 95% of Funner's,
or whatever it was.
Like, not gonna lie, they didn't really do much with it.
Yeah, I haven't seen much of a change from Funimation.
I don't know how well Funimation was doing back then.
Right.
But it seems like they've just gone on business as usual now.
Yeah.
1.2 billion for Crunchyroll just kind of sees how much they're investing in anime, I guess.
Because they must see the potential in the anime industry to get to like shell out this big of a market.
I guess maybe they're willing to throw that much money because they realize that there is
is a massive competitor now and that is Netflix.
Yeah, yeah.
I mean, I guess when you put it into perspective
of like Twitch was bought out,
but that was like how many years ago
was Twitch bought out by Amazon?
Like 20, probably around the same time
that Sony first bought Funimation.
No, it was earlier than that.
Was it?
I think it was like 2016, right?
It must have happened, 2015?
Really.
Yeah, but still.
What did it happen, Malian?
Can you Google it?
Yeah.
2014.
Okay, too, too fair.
Twitch was like the fucking big shit back then.
Yeah, so Twitch was 970 million.
But I guess Twitch is 2014,
970 really makes sense.
Twitch nowadays, pretty worth like five, six times.
Oh, easily, yeah.
Yeah, but that was, I would say that, you know,
which at that point, comparing Crunchyroll now
to Twitch back then.
Twitch is still bigger.
I would say, like, Twitch was like a hot property
because everyone was expecting YouTube to buy Twitch.
I remember back in the day where it was just like,
where it was just like, yeah, everyone was like,
well, Google was gonna buy Twitch,
that's just a natural move, right?
And it was a big surprise when Amazon kind of stepped in.
And then Jeff Bezos was like,
JK, I mean, I'm a step,
I mean, that's been great for creators, though,
that, like, that happened.
But I'm curious as to why,
do you have any thoughts on my, why this might be
good or bad for anime fans in general?
I mean, I'd say as a consumer,
it would probably be better because, okay,
well, more money in the industry is always better.
Well, it's not only that, but I remember,
I would say like the golden age of like anime streaming
was, remember when you could get every anime,
you could conceivably want to watch on one platform,
which was Crunchyroll back in the day.
and then it kind of just like got spread out
to different streaming companies.
I mean that was inevitable, that it was gonna happen.
It was inevitable.
Yeah.
But I, you know, the biggest thing I find annoying
isn't just the fact that I have to pay
for like different streaming companies.
It's just the fact that nowadays,
when I see it, when I go through the,
when I go through an anime chart,
I literally have no idea which anime's gonna be
on which platform.
Yeah, that's true.
That's true.
I was specifically says like Prime, for example.
Like I just want to like log on to one service
and be like, okay, I just wanna,
don't care how much I'll pay for this service,
I just wanna wanna, I just want to watch all the anime
I want to watch in that one service.
Well, it's, it's like confusing
because I thought Jiu-Zitsu Kaysen, is that correct?
Yeah, yeah, was on Netflix.
No, that's on Crunchy Road.
It's on Crunchyroll.
But it is on Netflix.
Is it?
In Japan.
No, in Japan.
Oh, in Japan.
So it's really confusing living Japan
because I'm like, wait, who owns what?
Because, like, because obviously it's,
it's pretty much Japan, rest of the world.
That's how like the market works, right?
Obviously.
And it was really confusing because I'm like, wait,
wait, where do I watch it there?
Like, you know, I realize Netflix doesn't offer English
probably for that reasons with the licensing, right?
Fuck, it's a mess, though.
It is a mess.
It's like, how do I, how do I know where to fuck I'm watching what?
And then everyone's just laughing being like,
ha-ha, piracy, you know, like, TVXD.
Yeah, I mean, I wanna pay, I want an easy service.
I mean, I want a convenient service.
Like, I'm willing to pay for a convenient service,
which for the longest time it was until it wasn't.
And now it's like, you know,
I wanna support the industry, but at the same time,
it's just like, if I'm having trouble finding
which service has got which
I literally have to, there is a dedicated search engine
for this, which is like, I think the name is like,
because Moe or something, that's the name
of the website, but that's literally a dedicated search engine
to search which anime is on which streaming service.
I love that someone had to make that.
Yeah, I know, right?
That really is telling.
It's like this fucking pre-order, like, like a spreadsheet.
Like what you get in what pre-order?
It's like, I don't fucking know what's on what?
Fuck me.
Well, then, would you say then in that instance that,
I guess like a full,
monopoly of the Western market onto one service is a benefit?
I mean, it's not the monopoly though, is it really,
because Netflix is.
Right, but that's what I'm saying though.
Like if, for example,
Monopoly's always bad.
Yeah, but that's what I'm saying.
But for example, if Sony, hypothetically is like,
hey, we want to like buy the anime side of things
from the Netflix's thing, right?
That would truly, I would say, turn it into a monopoly,
at least in terms of the Western market.
That would be awful.
That would be awful for anime fans, right?
That would be awful for anime fans, right?
Yeah, it would be awful for anime
but at the same logic that Garland was saying,
it would all be on one platform too.
I mean, that's kind of like the fucking Disney argument now, isn't it?
Right. Like, yes, all my characters now are gonna be in the MCU.
Yeah. Yay for Monopoly, right?
You know.
Oh my God.
It's like, with the whole Disney shit,
it's worrying because if everything's on fucking Disney,
we only get Disney-esque products.
Right.
I don't want fucking Disney shit.
I fucking hate Disney.
That reminds me of the other day when I was
I don't know how true this is, so take this with a grain of salt, but somebody was saying that there's a rumor that Disney might be acquiring Shonen Jump.
Oh my God, no, please no, please not. Seriously?
I don't know how true that is. Fact check this, Mayling.
Yeah, please, can you can you fact check this because he sounded pretty fucking convincing when someone, like people in the chat were talking about it, but apparently Disney is thinking to acquire it because they want to do a collaborative thing between my hero,
and the MCU.
No.
And I'm just, and in my head,
that's gotta be a fucking troll.
Yeah, if it is a troll, then-
That's got to be a troll.
If it is a troll, then I've fallen for the bait.
But at the same time, I wouldn't be surprised
if Disney actually wanted to do that.
Dude, I can't understand this.
Well, because, like, think about it, it's like MCU's superheroes.
My Hero Academia.
Superhero's.
It's a match made in heaven, according to Disney, right?
Bro, I can't wait for when, like, fucking all might show
up in Avengers 5 or something like that.
Yeah.
Oh my God.
You don't see it?
All right, Joe's bullshitting.
Joe's bullshit.
Oh my God, you know what that would mean though?
The fucking like Thanos versus Goku memes would like become real.
I'd become like a legitimate talking point.
It would be horrible for like a realistic standpoint, but my God,
the amount of shit posts and memes that would come out of this would be fucking nip.
Again, like take it with a grain of salt.
It might be a troll.
It might be a real.
I might be talking out of my ass, I don't know.
That just means like every MCU conversation
would end with, but Goku could be,
yeah, but Goku could be Captain America.
But could Goku beat HIV?
That's the, I mean, I can't,
I don't really like the way Disney does things
with properties and it's worrying that they're acquiring
so much, right, yeah, that they have so much control
of the things because, yeah, a Disney movie is streamlined
and it's nice, but you don't,
you don't get the weird shit from Disney.
Right, but that's what I'm saying.
That's what I'm saying, like, when I heard about that supposed rumor or bullshit, whatever it was, like, I wasn't, like, immediately, oh, that's bullshit. That's never going to happen. Because there is a very likely chance. It very much might happen. Yeah. And if it does happen, then it's going to be really bad for anime. Like, anime is going to get fucking boring when that happens. I mean, what I was saying now is that so, like, we can basically break down, like, the main place to be Crunchroll Funimation, Netflix, like, CrunchRum Funimation and Netflix.
and there's, you know,
there's, you know, Sentii film works doing their own thing.
Yeah.
But I will say that putting those two together,
like, they do have very different brands.
Like there's, you know, sometimes you watch an anime
and you're like, yeah, this seems, this feels like a Netflix show.
Yeah.
You know what I mean? Like, B-Stars felt like it belonged to Netflix.
Yeah.
Devon Man Crybaby felt like it belonged to Netflix.
What I would say when it was like CrunchRole versus Funimation
is that they have like exact same branding.
Yeah. So I'm just like, oh, Kagiyah's,
Kagya's on CrunchRoll, then on Funimation, like, like, season two's on Fonomashu's on
Funimation's like, you know, because like they were both trying to acquire the same shows.
It's the same type of consumers, I feel, that use both Funimation and Crunchroll. And, you know,
not to say that CrunchRoll users don't use Netflix and vice versa, but I feel that like, yeah,
as you said, there's like a certain, I don't know what the right word for it is. Edginess?
When it comes to shows on Netflix? I don't know. I don't know what the right word for it is.
Netflix is that, that cooler older brother who comes in and is like, hey, you ever played a Game Boy?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like that, you know what I mean?
Like that vibe.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I mean, we've obviously done work with Netflix,
so we're, you know, but this is totally like separated
from that.
But I mean, that service is the best, man, like, I mean,
obviously the Netflix jail stuff fucking sucks.
Yeah, and sometimes, at least in Japan,
the subtitle differences, again,
as we obviously know.
Right, right, right, yeah.
That sucks, but, I mean, you use that player
and it's like, you can't beat that shit.
No, no, you can download it,
and now you can do audio only on,
on the mobile, which I love.
Because you used to have to keep,
when I used to listen to stuff on Netflix,
I used to keep my phone open in my pocket,
like the screen going.
But now you can just do audio only.
And it's like, oh my God, it's like,
they know what I fucking want before I do it.
Okay, but the question is then,
what would you watch?
What kind of content would work for audio only stuff?
Like documentaries?
It's not about that.
It's just like, sometimes right,
I'm like, I'm in a situation.
I couldn't do that for anime, honestly.
No, I'm in a situation where I can't look at my screen
for like just two minutes.
Yeah.
Because I'm like, maybe I'm getting off the train,
maybe I'm walking around real,
I just wanna lock my phone,
but I wanna keep listening, it's got my headphones on.
I get you.
So just quick little moments where you just wanna turn it off,
but you don't want like content to just stop.
Right, right, right.
Honestly, the big thing for me for Netflix
is the skip opening button.
Skip opening.
They've also just added the two-time speed, 1.5.
Oh, really?
So now you can, if you wanna be a bastard
and watch anime two times.
I know it's a fucking cardinal sin to say
you could skip opening, anime openings,
but that's made it so much more easier
to watch some of the anime.
Because let's be honest, let's be honest.
But they do it automatically for endings.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You can physically tell them, no, no, don't.
Because every time the great pretender ended,
I'm like, no, let me listen.
Yeah.
I love this one.
I love this one.
I fucking love this.
Sometimes you do watch the ending,
and sometimes you do listen to the opening.
Yeah. But let's be honest, most of the time,
you want to skip the opening.
You watch the opening once, and it's another generic J-Spot opening.
Especially if you're like binging.
Yeah.
And I love binging anime.
Like, I don't watch anime weekly.
So for me, like, unless it's a fucking banger
an opening, which is there's always one or two shows
every season, but it's not every fucking show.
For me, like, B-Stars was one.
Like, I always fucking listen to the B-Stars opening.
B-Stars, fucking amazing opening, mob psycho as well.
I'm just like, no, no, no, don't skip it.
Just leave it.
Just leave it, let it play.
Yeah, come on.
I want to watch this.
Yeah, it's great.
Yeah, like you said, like the great pretender ending,
which is like, of, you've always got time for Freddie Mercury.
Yeah, of course.
Come on, you've always got time.
Never skip Freddy Mercury.
What time is it? I've got time, regardless.
You know what I mean?
And you can download episodes.
You could do that on Crunchy Roll now, I think.
You can pay extra to download and CrunchRoll.
I have never tried it, so I don't know how good the service is.
Because I know you could do it on Funimation,
but it didn't work that good.
I mean, that was always the biggest complaint
in Fanonation, right?
It said that the website was garbage.
Yeah.
As far as I know, I can't use it, don't live in the US.
What do you think the plan is with Sony?
Like, why do you think they decided?
That's a good question.
I have no fucking idea.
That's what I've always wanted to know, again, right?
It's like what is it about Crunchroll and Funimation
that Sony was like, we'll drop a billion bucks on this.
Sony has a movie division.
That's pretty, I think a big branch,
a big part of that business.
So do you think we'll start to see like,
maybe like funding Sony original anime on Crunch Roll and Funimation maybe?
Maybe, I don't know.
Maybe, because they have to compete
with Netflix originals, right?
Yeah, I mean, right now, I mean, Sony kind of,
Sony are already on like the production committee
to a lot of anime.
Yeah.
Including like big anime's, like,
I think isn't it like the demon slayer?
Oh yeah, they could be.
I think they find a demon slayer?
Because that's aniplex, right?
Yeah, actually, I might be talking out my ass here.
Yeah, which company did the Sony own?
Is it Annieplex?
Aniplex, yeah.
Yeah, Sony owns Aniplex.
Oh, Aniplex is a lot of hands.
I'm pretty sure that I'm pretty sure
Aniplex was with Demon Slayer.
Yeah, they usually with like the majority
of the big shonen.
I mean, they only make sense that they'd wanna
get a big grip on the Western market.
I mean, if you're funding this shit,
you already have a lot of say over it.
I mean, I think right now,
I don't know what they play.
but I think the amount of money they threw at it
just shows how much potential they see
for the anime market, right?
Yeah, for real.
I mean, it's a gold rush right now, I think really.
Like, I think all the companies are fighting
to get control over the Western market
because they realize like, this shit's big.
It's like an IP race, right?
Just to see how the IPs they can grab, essentially.
While it's still young and it still has it fully settled,
right, which is now, like, why wouldn't you just fucking
throw money at the shit and try and get your,
you know, get all the IPs, get all the foundations up?
I mean, do you see like anime becoming as
as big as say like gaming or like other things in a few years.
I do. Yeah.
Maybe maybe not like anti, but.
Yeah, maybe not.
Hey man, man.
You just wait, you just wait, boy.
You just wait, you just wait.
You just wait till I drop my original hentai
and then we'll see how big again.
Yeah, but listen, right, there's everyone watches porn, right?
But there isn't no like Avengers of porn.
No one's discussing like, there's no podcasts about porn.
I don't think actually maybe there is.
You know, there's no, there's no big discussions about porn
I'm like, oh my God, what's, you know,
who's Johnny Sin's gonna fuck next.
Johnny Sin's just the Captain America of porn.
Like, there's not gonna be that God.
Get your hopes down now, all right?
I mean, I don't know, man.
Isn't like Porn Hub, what of,
like in like the top 20 most viewed sites?
Well, they just gutted their library.
Yeah, they just destroyed like 60% of their library.
This episode is sponsored by E.J. anime store.
Do you know what E.J. stands for?

Narnachi Plushy.
This thing's actually really fucking cute,
I want it.
Additionally today, we have a bit of a special introduction.
As some of you may know
over the span of three days
at the end of November, we released a series of streams
on each of our Twitch channels
as a part of a speed run competition
in which we had to put together
one of the EJ anime store plastic model kits,
which is this box here,
and we had to see who could do it the fastest.
Also known as the Sordat Online figure rise
standard Asana Dengiki Polkolor Limited version.
I said that in one take.
Let's go.
Oh my God.
And if you've already watched the streams,
you already know who won and lost.
Absolutely getting destroyed.
I thought I was fast.
And then Connor was like, no, no, no, no.
Hold up. Hold it.
Okay, so I didn't know this before,
but we have a forfeit that the loser had to do.
And Malin is about to present to me my forfeit.
I've seen it, and it's gross.
So that's a black...
It's a black coat of chilling.
Meilin, what the fuck did you buy for me?
What is this, Maylene?
Yeah, that is a black cobra chili right there.
This is not what we agree to.
What is this thing?
What is the giant water butt?
You should have gotten good.
I'm not gonna fucking forget this.
This is May Lynn's idea, by the way.
Wasn't our idea.
Look at this shit.
Look, oh, fuck as, fuck as it.
Oh, it just flipped over.
Can you hold on up to the camera show?
Yeah.
That's disgusting.
That's, I could not wanna eat that.
Good luck, Gond.
So, while Garn enjoys it on his fantastic meal for the evening,
EJ anime store will be giving away one lucky winner,
an Asana figure set with a wall scroll,
signed by the three of us for free.
Oh shit, look at that!
What? That's pog!
It's got our signatures on it.
I have to act excited now.
Look, it's the loser's signature.
Oh yeah, right in the corner.
All you simply have to do, guys,
is follow their Twitter at EJ Anime Store,
like and retweet their tweet that contains
the TT Asana Speed Run and then retweet the post.
It literally smells like swamp.
This is what I was trying to figure out what this smells like.
You know what it smells like? It smells like liquorish.
And once you do all that,
you will have the chance to win the Asana Plastic model
with the signed wall scroll, gentlemen.
Oh, wait, say that again.
So how do you eat this mail-like?
So you tear off its head, do you want me to do it for you?
You tear off its head.
And then you take off its wings.
Oh.
And then you-
Oh, there it is.
I'm gonna fucking,
I'm gonna fucking puke.
You just give it a suck and that's it.
What the fuck is that?
Just give it that good.
That good suck.
Wait, can I smell it?
Ooh, that's strong, isn't it?
So if you miss the stream,
watch the archive on our Twitch channels
as a reference to build your own model.
Both the regular version
and the special bonus wall scroll set
will be available on the EG Anime Store website.
So check the links in the description
to speed run it yourself.
Please try and beat our times.
How is it gone?
How does it take?
He just spurned out.
He has the worst fucking after.
I need some, give me this G-fuel, man.
Wait, do you want to do it?
Do you want to eat the cobra chili instead?
There you go, eat that.
I'm fucking dying.
What the fuck?
Why did I just do that?
That's what you get for mozing around in a speed run.
I want it to get, honestly?
I can smell the chili from here.
Honestly, the chili is like a fucking breath of fresh air compared to what I tasted.
My mouth is on fucking fire right now, but it feels better than a fucking water bug, man.
I don't know, I don't know why, but I kind of want to try it.
My latter just try it.
Yeah.
Oh, hey, Connor, there's one for you as well.
Oh, I'm okay, I'm okay.
Wait, so what are you doing?
You rip off the head.
Rip off the head, take out the wings.
So wait, what is this used for?
What is this fucking thing?
Oh, God, that's very juicy.
Yeah.
It's like salty...
Oh, God, look at that.
I don't want to look at that.
Don't show me.
Don't pry its asshole open in front of me.
Wait, let me try.
Oh, God, Joey.
It literally tastes like salty swamp.
That's, that's literally what it like...
You spit it out?
Why did you spit it out?
I just swallowed it.
Yeah, actually, you know what?
Well, thank you each anime store for sponsoring this episode of the podcast.
Fuck you, Maylin.
Back to the episode.
Back to the episode.
All right, I'm fucking bored talking about anime.
Fuck, fuck anime.
We're not even an anime podcast anymore.
Imagine talking about anime on trash taste guys.
I feel like I'm attempting to be the Winnie the Pooh meme,
like the high class when I talk about anime.
I'm trying to form opinions.
I don't have opinions, right?
I don't have well-formed opinions, right?
I don't have well-formed opinions about things.
What, do you think we do?
I just say what I feel, okay?
I mean, you don't have well-formed opinions about anything.
So like, like, anime, food, gaming, like, let's be honest here,
let's be honest here.
I went on a little rant on my stream the other day,
just being like, gone is actually like,
your parents didn't beat you enough.
Because, like, because, right, listen,
he was allowed to get away with not eating crusts, right?
If I didn't eat my crusts.
Oh, I think I saw you talking about.
If I didn't need my crusts, right,
you know what my parents would do?
They'd be like, that's fine, Connor.
You have dinner ready for tomorrow now.
And I'd be like, well, but mom, I don't want them.
She's like, no, Connie, you're eating fucking crust.
You're not wasting food.
Who says that I didn't get my ass beat
for not eating my crust?
Did you?
Did you, were you like fucking Spanacus?
Like, mother, I will not bow
to the crusts.
Because I had gone.
my entire fucking childhood having to like being forced
to eat my cross.
So as soon as I was a fully grown adult
who can make my own fucking decision.
I'm gonna be, I was, I was like,
Mother, I do not care what you think anymore.
I'm going to not eat my crust.
I pay my own rent.
I pay my own bills, I buy my own food.
Fuck you, mother.
All I'm saying is you should have got a backhand
a little bit more, you know what I mean?
Yeah, yeah.
It should have been a little harder.
That's such a bad joke, I'm so sorry.
There is, there is something.
that like I didn't fully appreciate as a kid or like I didn't fully like like not cross
good food not cross but like we're not getting into food by the way we're not getting into food
again but like I was yesterday fucking cleaning the house and I fucking hate cleaning the house
I don't think anyone in their entire life lies cleaning the house and I didn't realize why my parents
fucking basically just every parent manipulates their kids to be like their personal slave
when it comes to like cleaning the house well
That's the reason why they used to have so many kids, right?
It was like they gotta plow the fields, right?
I intend to keep that British philosophy alive
when I have a kid.
So like seven kids.
He needs to plow the fields and clean the house
and prepare the food.
Connor's gonna like min-max that shit.
Be like, all right, my house has six rooms,
so that's six children I need to have at least.
One per room.
I'm not gonna beat my kids, by the way.
That was a distasteful joke.
Just saying that now.
Yeah, because like, why is the like,
Why is the like activity of cleaning just so awful?
Like it, like, does anyone, who actually enjoys cleaning the house?
When you do it, when you have like,
you get rid of a lot of dirt, right?
That's why I let it build up.
I let it get like gross.
Right, right.
Because when you clean that shit, it's like peeling off a good scab.
All right.
Oh, it's so clean.
Yeah, but I need to see like a physical layer of dust
in order for me to be like, yes.
Dude, when you swipe a whole layer of dust off
with like a wet wipe or something,
damn that feels good.
That takes that shit.
I get like a quarter chub at least.
Yeah, but I don't like cleaning.
No, no, because like, yeah,
that is a satisfying feeling.
But my problem is that cleaning just shit,
like I never knew as a kid
how much fucking time and effort it takes to clean.
Like, because, okay, when you're a kid,
you just clean your own fucking room,
you hoove the living room.
I didn't even do that.
Oh, you lucky motherfucker.
You lucky motherfucker.
I would, but then five minutes later
be back to where it was.
So my parents are just,
Just like whatever.
Like I still have fucking Vietnam flashbacks
of my mom calling me like,
I know she's about to ask you to who for the living room.
I know it, I fucking, I don't wanna come down right now.
This time I haven't Vietnam flashback.
But yeah, like, like I realize as an adult,
the act of cleaning just like, it takes you all day.
And like the reason I hate it is because it feels like,
you know when you do something productive.
Like you do like a hard day of work or something.
Or like even playing a video game,
you feel like you're making progress with your life.
I don't know about the video game.
No, no, like, like, you know,
like, for me, when ever playing,
like a first person game,
like a single player game,
you're like making progress with this story.
Yeah, okay, okay, yeah, something like that.
I don't know about that.
Like a JLPG, right?
Yeah, they're like a JRP.
Yeah, I feel you, I love wasting my time.
With cleaning, like the whole,
the entire concept of cleaning is that you're working
towards making things zero again.
You're working towards zero.
Yeah, you're working, you're working towards making things normal again.
Oh, what happened?
Oh, switched off.
Sorry.
Joey laptop is shit.
But yeah, you're working towards
making the default state zero again.
And I'm just like, this doesn't feel good,
yet it takes so much time and energy to do it.
And no one prepared for, no one prepared this
for me as a kid.
It's like shoveling snow in a blizzard, right?
Yeah, right.
It's gonna form back up again,
so it's like, what's the point?
I mean, I only used to clean,
I'm like, this is how I would,
I would decide if I'm gonna clean this day.
Is somebody coming to my house?
No, I'm not cleaning.
Is somebody coming to-
That is still my statement.
Yeah, is somebody coming to my house?
Fine, I'll clean.
You know what the best adult purchase
I ever made was in the UK?
It was a good vacuum.
I was like, you know what?
What's all this hype around those dice and things?
Like, what is all that hype?
Because I lived with a friend.
Just a brand.
Yeah, I lived with a guy and his dad worked
for the Henry Hoover's.
You know, like the fucking,
smile-thed.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I don't know if these are in America,
but they're everywhere in the UK.
Right.
These things are like tanks.
They don't die.
But they also kind of,
They don't suck good.
They should be sucking good.
And I'm like, this guy in my house,
I was like, I want to get a Dyson.
And he was like, no, no, no, no, all you need is this thing.
And he's like fucking slaps it.
He's like, it's like, it's a fucking unit this thing is.
And I broke it within like two weeks.
Yeah, that's, I mean, that's my own fault.
What the fuck did you suck up?
Well, that'll do it.
I was like, oh no, I have to get a new one.
Oh no, no, no, quick, grab the Hoover.
Oh no, I have to get a new, a new vacuum.
Fuck.
So I bought a Dyson dude, that shit like cleaned up,
like it could have, oh my god, a carpet was a different color.
I was like, what have I been doing my whole?
Yeah, yeah.
No, I never believed in that Dyson shit too
until I bought one like a couple of years ago.
I was like, let's see how good these are.
And I do, I was like, all right, not buying anything else anymore.
Like this is the one thing.
You crank that shit up to like, oh my God.
It gives the good suck.
The shit.
The Max suck.
Okay, here's how I could, okay,
you know, this Dyson has all this bullshit
about rotating fucking things.
like 10 cylinder, it's a lot of shit.
Let me say why it's good, right?
You know that one piece that always sticks
the fucking carpet that doesn't come off?
Dyson never has an issue getting that one crumb
out of the carpet.
That shit always comes out.
Because the normal vacuums, they don't get that shit out.
Like, there's always that one fucking thing
that for some reason won't come out.
You gotta fucking- It's just like clinging onto the carpet
with TILI for it.
And then you're like, how many rollovers
am I gonna do this thing until I just admit defeat,
bend over, pull it out of the carpet like an animal
and feed it into the vacuum,
like it's some budget dog.
I'm like, here you go, come on, take a second.
I don't like doing that.
I don't wanna do that.
I'm not a peasant.
I shouldn't have to touch my carpet with my hands.
That's disgusting.
So yeah, that's how I can sell it to you.
You will never have to bend over.
You'll never have to bend to the knee.
Dude, it's amazing, dude.
And that was like my gift to my parents
that I went to Japan.
Cause I couldn't bring it with me.
Right.
So I was like, parents, you can have my prized possession.
Here's a vacuum.
He's a vacuum.
I'm like bending over, like giving him
like the sword of camelot.
Like fucking, here you go, take it.
Take my Dyson V12 max suck edition.
To be fair, she thought it was all nonsense,
but she tried it, she was like, all right, Connor,
this is a pretty fucking good gift.
I'm like, you're welcome, mom.
Which is like the biggest reason I don't cook
or like I don't like cooking is because cooking,
like I like cooking's great, I like the food.
Cleaning up, man.
It's like the ratio of time it takes to clean up
versus eating good food, nice home cooked food.
It just doesn't, it's, it's just doesn't,
It's not optimal.
It's so sub-optimized.
The entire, like the entire activity of cleaning
is just sub-optimized in life.
You've become like me, I swear, recently.
No, no, no, no, no.
You're caring about like the splits, the efficiency.
Like, I've, because cleaning for me
has always been sub-optimal.
Like, I don't know why this is the one activity in life
that it's just like, this needs to be balanced.
There needs to be like a balanced patch in life
that just makes cleaning less effort.
It's like doing a 20 minute side quest
to get to a two-minute main quest.
Yeah, because it just doesn't make sense.
It takes more like, it's a side quest
that takes more time and energy
than the fucking main quest.
You finish cleaning and you're like, all right,
time to get down to work.
It's like, cool, I'm glad I spent 30 minutes cooking
this thing that took me two minutes to eat.
Yeah, exactly, right.
I order a lot of Uber Eats, obviously.
And I caved and in Japan they have an Uber Eats pass
where you can, if you pay $9 a month,
you get free delivery fee.
So there's no delivery fee, which is like two bucks each time.
And I was like, fuck dude, am I really ordering this much
fucking takeout?
And I was like, yeah, yeah, I am.
And then I did it in my,
I did this thing where like for three,
for three times when I cooked, I timed it.
I didn't speed run it or anything.
I wasn't doing splits or anything.
I wasn't like,
expedited, it's 80%.
I'm like, this is the onion split.
Oh, I got a gold onion split.
No, I wasn't doing that.
I just had a timer and I timed
genuinely how long it took, right?
And then I timed cleaning up, right?
Because I wanted to know, based on my average earnings
for a month, right?
Is this technically? Am I literally?
I'm using money by cooking myself.
Right, right, right, right.
Because I was like, this is how I can scientifically justify
to myself ordering takeout.
Right, right.
So I split it up, right?
I did the average, no, I know this would be fucking,
I knew you guys are fucking laughing for this.
This is just hilarious that you went to do something.
This is big brain.
Do it yourself, right?
Go home now.
No, I don't have to, because you've done a for us.
Right.
So that whole factor of enjoyment is gone.
I don't, that's not a factor in my decision.
But do you enjoy, do you enjoy the end result?
I enjoy Uber Eats small.
Bro, you-
No, no, there is something about a home-cooked meal.
I don't know what it is.
Because you can cook it exactly the way you want to do.
Yeah, there's a chum about a home-cooked meal
if you know how to cook.
Yeah, so my cooking is, my cooking is made.
If you don't, then it's just like punishment.
You should try sometime, Joe.
No, no, I'm good.
Just tell Aki to be like, yo.
I only make like curry and Mexican.
That's all I made, right?
Right.
Which is, honestly, it's all you need in my book.
Right, yeah, yeah.
So Mexican food, I can't really like make enough to store.
Like, because it's really fucking expensive
for the ingredients as well here.
But curry I can normally make like enough for like six meals.
And that's just pretty nice because then that like the time versus like money effort is fine.
But I don't cook anything else because when I did this thing, I found out that I was like wasting if you did the time to money conversion on my earnings to like.
It was like 40% less efficient to cook my own meals.
It's got like a fucking spreadsheet.
I did because it was driving me insane because I was speaking to some people who are like those fucking entrepreneur people.
They're like, I never cook or clean my own thing.
I hire a maid.
I get Uber eats.
I don't do any of that shit, just waste of time.
I'm on that grind 24-7.
In reality, I would like an extra hour to play video games.
I'm not gonna lie, because in my life,
an extra hour to play video games
is quite a lot of time.
Yeah. Yeah.
So if I can get an extra hour playing video games
and then I can then later on spend an extra hour working,
it's like, okay, it makes sense to just get Uberie's.
Yeah. Yeah.
Is this just Connor the podcast trying to justify his spending?
No, no, no, I, I, I can call it.
Is this rich people problem?
I'm kidding, I'm joking.
It's entrepreneur problems.
No, I completely, I mean, I mean, this is why we became
I've never fucking enjoyed cleaning in my life.
No. I never will enjoy cleaning.
And you know what's the only like, I guess,
like housework, quote unquote that I really enjoy?
Yeah. Doing the laundry.
Okay, laundry is nice.
Yeah.
Laundry.
There's something about laundry.
It's like it's just like, I just put some music on.
I'm outside.
But you feel clean.
You feel clean.
Yeah, usually it's like a nice day and I'm just hanging up my clothes.
And I'm just like, hey, you know what?
No.
Stress free.
Suboptim.
This is why Sydney does.
the laundry.
Thank you, Sydney, by the way.
This is why I get a woman to do it.
I laugh sometimes.
I laugh sometimes because my mom's like,
you're gonna need to learn how to do the laundry
someday, someday.
And then Sydney comes along and is like,
I love laundry. Laundry is so relaxing.
It is, it is. I'm like, good.
It's the whole thing of like your school teacher being like,
you're not gonna carry a calculator with you every day.
It's like, ha ha, about that.
I'm gonna say it, dude.
When you have fresh sheets, not only is that,
sleep the best.
Yeah.
That's the best wank you'll have in like all month,
in fresh sheets, dude.
You got all, wait, wait, you wank, wait.
Why am I disgusting, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait,
time, time out.
What are you, sorry, you can say,
are you like, whanking onto your sheets?
Like, are you like, jeezing on side?
I'm outside on the fucking, no, I'm kidding.
Now, when you put them on, so fresh, the room smells nice,
it all feels comfortable, you're like, ah, time to wank.
That was the biggest they had us in the first half
of like ever had in this podcast,
because I was gonna be like, yeah,
I know exactly what you, way, what the fuck?
Are you saying you don't like that?
Come on, go on, go.
I don't jack off in my bed.
Yeah, don't jack off my bed, that's probably why.
Well, if you have sex in it as well,
it's also great.
Yeah, that's, that's not what you said,
though, you said, yeah, if you would have said that
that we would be like, yes, I agree, Connor,
but- Same thing, same thing, the same climax,
in the bed, fresh sheets, all the same thing, dude.
No, like, I love fresh sheets.
I hate the process of getting fresh sheets.
Like, okay, okay, like, putting on bed sheets.
Okay, you see, you see,
You've seen my setup.
What's your setup?
Connor has like, Connor has like,
okay, you look at Connor's like gaming setup,
it's like perfect.
Everything is like optimized.
And then you see his bed.
And it's like one of those like Reddit reacts
to like some of the worst fucking gaming setups
you've ever seen.
It's like a two dollar bed setup.
Yeah, like, you just have like a fucking towel
on your fucking.
No, no.
So it's literally nothing in my bedroom
except a bed and there's like literally nothing.
Why not?
I don't know, it's from my fucking bedroom.
I just sleep in there.
I don't do anything else in there.
It's worth it.
Yeah, your bed frame's like broken, is there?
Yeah, it's broken as well, yeah.
Because I bought the cheapest one on Amazon
when I moved here.
Right.
Because, you know, moving's expensive, right?
Yeah.
And it was so expensive that I was like,
fuck, I gotta cut cost.
Yeah, but I regret it because I bought a $200 bed
and that was the mattress combined.
Yeah.
And this shit's fucking awful.
All the springs are fucked, the bed's broke.
It's literally- You were talking so much about,
like, yeah, why would you buy a $20 dollar one,
you get your money's worth.
Here's the thing, I had that philosophy,
but again, moving kind of like distorts your price range.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Because you're spending like, you know,
I gotta put down like a fucking 4K deposit on this shit,
the flights are this much, I'd pay shipping for my PC.
Like I was spending a lot of money, I'm like,
fuck, I'm kinda losing a lot of money, you know?
So I gotta start saving costs.
I can't buy a 10K bed frame.
Right, right, right, right.
So I bought the cheapest one on Amazon,
which I regretted within about two weeks.
Actually, no, immediately when I built it,
because building it was a pain in the fucking ass.
Yeah.
I could tell,
I was building it, I'm like, oh no, this isn't even like budget plywood.
This is like the throwaway plywood that they would use.
It's like the foamy plywood.
It's the worst.
I remember seeing the exact bed frame you bought on Amazon and it was like two and a half stars.
And that's when I knew that mistakes were made.
I just wanted something and I wanted it now and I regretted it so much.
But anyway, what happened was the most ghetto thing that I have is that I'm actually using a bed sheet as like a mattress cover.
Wait, what?
So what happened was, right?
How do you stretch that shit?
over it.
Okay, actually with a lot like the fucking power of Zeus,
I'm like, I'm like, no, like putting this,
I'm like pulling the red sea back together
when I'm putting, trying to put these bed sheet,
it's a zip, it's all around my mattress.
Oh, you fucking zipped it around your mattress?
Oh, you like, you like put it in.
Yeah, yeah.
Right, right.
You just fucking, like, condombed your mattress.
What the fuck does you do it?
I'm like, like, fucking Spartagus, right?
When he's kicking the guy,
I'm like doing that to my mattress every time
I wash.
Wait, you have to do that every time
you wash your mattress.
mattress as well.
So you wash your bed sheet?
So I wash my bed sheet as well, yeah, yeah.
So you have to fucking strip this thing out
and then wash it and then condom it back in.
I feel so sorry for your bed sheet, man.
It's very stretched.
So what happened, okay, but also I do avoid that annoying thing.
This is very like, this is like the only plus in this.
Now I'll go on to the many negatives.
The only plus, right, is that you know that fucking annoying thing
when you're sleeping in the bed sheet comes off in the corner?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You can never get it like back on unless you actually get off the bed.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I fucking hate that.
That sucks.
Never have that issue.
Because the entire,
I think he's wrapped.
It's zipped up around it.
No, no, I can see like the benefits of it
because like the best bed sheets are the ones
that are like super tight.
They're firm.
Yeah, yeah.
If I see wrinkles on that shit, that's such a,
that's like instant, you know it's shit too
because sometimes you'll wake up
and on your body you'll like have like imprints.
Oh, I hate that.
I'm just like, oh, what the fuck is that?
Instant softy, right, yeah.
I do have a backup bedsheet, which is actually like proper,
but I refuse to use it unless I'm desperate
because I love this one.
And I like even putting it back off.
You're all fucking turning your mattresses or bean bags.
So here's how I ended up with a bed sheet
as my duvet and it goes all around my mattress.
I fully put it all around my mattress
and zip it up all right.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So when I moved here, I went to Nitori,
which is kind of like Japanese IKEA,
which I think we've mentioned before.
I go there, right?
So I buy the pillows, the pillow sheets, you know?
Yeah, I buy the duvet.
And I go to the staff member and I ask him.
And like, I'm making sure I've got Google Translate, man.
I'm like duvet or like whatever
that's fucking called blanket, whatever.
Yeah.
I did not say fucking like futon.
I did not say futon.
I'm like, I'm showing him, I'm like this.
I even showed a picture, I'm like, oh, this,
this part, which one is this?
Then like broke a Japanese with Google Translate.
It's like, oh, no problem, fam, I got you.
Points me to this, I buy it, I get home.
What do you think it is?
It's fucking futon.
And he saw me buy the futon, another futon.
It wasn't even in the same section as well,
so that's why I was confused when I got home.
Because I'm like, wait, this was in a different section.
Why do we have two different futon types?
What is this?
So I have two fucking futon colors,
so I have the bed sheet, and then I have,
yeah, the mattress, so I got home,
and I needed to sleep, so I'm like, well, fuck it,
it's going in one way or another, like,
it's going over my bed.
I think Gant helped me the first time getting up.
This is a two-person mission.
That's what I'm trying to figure out,
like, how fuck do you get that on yourself?
So, yeah, I thought, I had just,
like, call Gant every time.
I just assumed that you got a duvet now?
I've mastered the technique of doing it, right?
Okay, here's what I do.
To get it off is easy because it's like,
it's like you're letting it wants to get off.
Yeah, it's like letting a pig out of clothes.
It's like that shit wants to come up.
Yeah.
Get it back on, right? Okay, first of all, here's the setup.
I flip my mattress to the side, right?
So it's upright.
And then I fucking like pull over half.
And I flip it upside down the other end, pull it up.
And then there's basically what happens is that it's up to here, right?
So this is long horizontal ones, right?
Yeah, yeah.
I've got to basically force this shit together.
Yeah.
Like grab it together and hold it.
and it hurts my hands because it's tight.
I gotta like slowly pull a little bit by little bit.
And if I let go, it all goes back.
So I have to keep grabbing a little bit and zipping,
grabbing a little bit and zipping.
It's a pain in the fucking ass and I hate it.
Why don't you just get a fucking dude,
it's like putting on the world's largest corner.
No, no, no, dude.
I think that is the bedsheet.
Just get a proper bed sheet.
Yeah, just get a proper bed sheet.
You know what?
I love the firmness of it.
Like, I love how tight it is around my bed.
Just get a fucking bed sheet.
And at that point, you might as well not even have a fucking bed sheet.
Why? Why?
I like it.
No, no, no.
Like there's a difference between having no bedsheet and having a firm bed sheet.
I sweat like a motherfucker. I need a bed sheet.
Right. So that's just buy a fucking bet. It's like a thousand yen.
I don't know. I've kind of gotten like used to it now. I kind of like it now.
This man literally made a spreadsheet trying to optimize cooking and he can't even buy a fucking bed sheet.
Well, because then I got to optimize that. That's another thing I got to optimize. I'm sick of it, man.
Well, too fair, that whole optimization with the Uber Eads was just to justify to myself why I can have like pad tie three.
times a week. Right, right.
To be honest.
Like, like, I like the final result of cooking and clean, fucking bed sheets.
But like, having to change your duvet, like, do you find it in the most, like, fiddliest
fucking thing ever to, like, take the duvet off and, like, putting it back on and having
to make sure every, every corner is perfectly situated on every...
If you do it, if you have a zipped-up one, every corner will be.
It doesn't have a choice.
Not the bed sheet, the actual fucking blanket part.
Oh, that's easy, because the ones are Japan, big brain.
Big brain, they come with the holes at the end.
So you can just flip it up inside out, grab the thing,
and then push.
Yeah, that's what I always.
You could do that?
Yeah, that's what I always.
What?
That's what I've done it ever since I was little.
So you turn it inside out.
Yeah, I do that.
And then you, like a little ghost,
you put it over you.
Yeah, yeah, you know, no, I do that.
You grab the ends of the futon,
and then you just like flip it over
and then shake it down.
Yeah, and then shake it down.
But like, I don't know.
Isn't that what hotels do?
Yeah, because they go to speed running
because they're like 100 rooms.
Like, I don't know if my, like,
because I think I have like my fucking nightmare
where my duvet is not the same size
as my blanket.
It's slightly bigger.
So I always have like left.
See, like a little bit of fabric left there.
Oh my God, it triggers me so much, man.
That's what, I hate the ones, I hate the ones like our old fucking duve.
It was like the perfect size.
But the problem was is that it would,
the duve inside would move around.
I hate that.
So like one end of the duvet would just have like
just fucking scrunched up.
So that you try and pull it over,
it's just sheet.
I'm just like, what's the fucking doovet?
This is why I think you are most likely
to have a mental breakdown when you're doing your bed sheets
or putting a duvet on.
I don't know what it is.
That's why I fucking hate it, man.
That's why I fucking hate it.
I don't know what it is about putting sheets on,
but when it just doesn't work, you're like, fuck it.
I just want to cry and just be like, why won't it work?
Why won't it work? Why is my day going bad?
I used to work in like hotel lodgers
in like ski fields and stuff,
and I had to do that shit every fucking day.
Really?
So I basically, like-
Do you shovel shit out of the drains
and then you gotta go do that?
Yeah, so I had to, I was basically-
That sounds like my nightmare.
Yeah, so like, at first I fucking hated it.
I was like, oh, there's-
there's 30 rooms in this hotel,
that doesn't seem too bad.
Five rooms in you're like, fuck man, I wanna go home.
Like, fuck, like just fucking around with the duvet
just like, it's not going in!
I have 25 rooms left to do this,
I would actually have a mental breakdown
if I had to do like five sheets in like one hour.
I would actually be like, no, no, I don't think life is for me.
I'm like, I'm not getting paid enough for this shit.
I would actually rather shovel shit.
Yeah, I'd rather shovel shit
and, like, fucking get shouted at McDonald's
than do five duvets in a row, man.
So now I'm just used to it
because I've lived through that fucking Vietnam War.
Yeah, because like...
What didn't you do at this job, Joey?
Jesus Christ.
I didn't...
I didn't work in the kitchen, that's for sure.
Yeah, because there is, there's something...
There's something fucking special
about hotel duvets.
And just, like, getting in, like, a hotel bed
and just feeling like you're in a fucking straight jacket.
I don't know, man.
I fucking love that feeling.
I don't like when hotels do that, when they fucking...
No, yeah, because you get in the bed and you're like,
what is this, the world's fucking strongest man for weight pulling?
You just have to fucking like shimmy yourself into it.
I love that feeling.
You feel like fucking safe, you feel covered?
No, I feel like I'm in a street jacket.
This is my safe zone right now, and no one can fucking touch me.
I feel like a moth.
I feel like a fucking caterpillar who's like about to fucking...
No!
Okay, what about...
I hate it when they took like half the fucking duvet
under the front of the bed.
So you get in it.
And it's like you're trying to
to tow a car when you're pulling this shit out.
You're like this on the bed like,
like, fuck, ah!
No, I just like shimmy myself in and I'm just like,
ah, I feel like I'm back in my mom's womb right now.
Nothing can hurt me.
I can't even shimbing myself in.
It's like I'm trying to get into pants,
five sizes too small.
It's like, fuck, I can't get in.
I feel bad as well when they put a lot of like,
they put like a cloth on the bed, like a little,
like, I don't know, like that shit.
They put on the front of the bed.
I'm like, get rid of there.
Get rid of that fucking out of it.
Oh, the thing like at the end.
It's like a linen thing or something.
I don't know what it is.
You know what that's for?
What is that for?
It's for, apparently it's an American thing.
Apparently it's so that you can wear shoes on the bed.
Oh!
Yeah.
Oh!
I'm about to leave right now.
So like, you probably seen it before like in hotels where there's just like this one weird like fucking tablecloth size.
Yeah, I hate that thing.
At the end of the bed, right?
That's for shoes?
That's the shoes?
That's the shoes.
But they do that in Japanese hotels where you have to take your shoes off at the front.
Yeah, that's what I don't understand.
Why?
I understand.
hotels as the only white, as the only white person.
No, no, don't put this on me.
As I need, I need your reading.
I was raised correctly.
Shoes on sofas and beds.
No, it could.
Does that trigger you as it should?
Yes, yes, of course.
My parents would hit me if I did that.
You're kidding me?
I've never understood, I always thought,
you know when you'd watch like The Simpsons
or like American like TV shows or whatever,
how they would take their shoes off before going to bed?
Like, like, where they would like keep their shoes
on the side of the bed.
And then when they wake up, the first thing they would do
was put shoes on.
I just thought that was parody.
I didn't actually think Americans did that.
I mean, it's not just America,
it's most of the fucking West.
And like, as an Asian, I'm just like,
why did the West just normalize war crimes?
I'm like, why are you all like dirty fucking,
like gross-ass shoes on the carpet?
That shit's gross.
I mean, I- That's what blows my mind.
I'm like, you are literally dragging, like,
daily shit into your carpet
by bringing your shoes in.
Like it drives me the same thing.
And then people complain being like,
oh man, I hate carpet because it's so dirty.
I'm like, yeah,
Of course you're in shoes.
Like whenever I would go to a friend's house
and they would be like, and I go to his house
and he would be like, it's okay, you can keep his shoes on.
I'm like, motherfucker, tell me to take my shoes off.
I want to take my shoes off, man.
I would actually run, like I'm not a fucking animal.
I'm not gonna bring dirt into the house, all right.
I don't know what it is, but like,
when I'm shitting with shoes on in somebody's house,
it feels so weird.
It feels like I'm in a public restroom.
Like I don't wanna shit with my shoes on.
Yeah, it is really comfortable, man.
Man, this drives me insane.
Like, and there's people, there'll be people comment
to me like, I wear my shoes in bed.
Stop, stop. Stop, stop.
For your own sake.
It's gross.
Stop. Please, if, if you wanna go against the Geneva Conventions,
just do it, do it in your own fucking.
It goes against basic Cuban rights.
I know, right.
To wear shoes in bed.
I love all our fans, except for the ones
that wear shoes to their bed.
I'm kidding, I'm kidding.
All my homies hate people who wear shows in bed.
My God, yeah, my God.
Because I went to fucking, Jesus, my editor, Evan,
I went to his house and that was disgusting.
He had like, he had like a five inch thick carpet.
Right. I don't even know what kind of,
I don't know what color this carpet was supposed to be,
but it definitely wasn't the color that it came as.
This shit was vile, dude.
Evan, fix that fucking carpet, man.
And they all wore like the dirtiest shoes inside.
And I was like, Evan, I can't.
Right, I'm like, have you not heard of house slippers?
Like if you have to wear something?
Why?
What's wrong with bare feet, man?
Yeah.
But even if, it's like, dude, slippers.
It's fine. It's clean.

Going back to the topic of beds and everything,
opinions on pajamas.
Do any of you guys wear pajamas?
I sleep naked.
Like specifically like pajamas?
Yeah, just pajamas.
No, for me it's just like underwear
and some random t-shirt.
All right, good.
I don't understand pajamas at all.
Yeah.
Some people- Do you wear a t-shirt to bed?
I don't wanna wear, why?
Why would you wear a t-shirt to bed?
I mean, unless it's like fucking stinking hot,
like in the summer, like,
I'll wear no shirt, but most of the time I have to wear it.
Like, Max comfort is the least amount of clothes you could wear, basically.
And, you know, you basically only wear boxes, so your fucking, your fucking dangly bits don't go everywhere.
Yeah, that's pretty much the end of reason.
I like the freedom, though, you know, let them loose.
I'm sleeping. I want to be comfy.
No, but like, like, I don't know.
I like wearing a t-shirt because sometimes in the morning, the weather can, like, completely change.
So I don't, especially nowadays in the winter, like, I'm a little bit too cold if I don't
wear at least the t-shirt, even with the heater on.
Yeah. But yeah, I don't know.
What about when you say, like a friend's house, right?
Do you, what do you, do you wear a t-shirt when you sleep?
Because I'm just like immediately, I'm like, right, I'm stripping.
It depends how close I am to that friend, really.
Yeah, I mean, it doesn't matter who they are, I'm like, right,
if I'm staying in your house, I'm sorry, I'm asleep, like,
I'll sleep with boxes on, I'll humor you.
I won't get my junk everywhere.
I'll sleep with boxes on, but I'm like.
You can just not wear a shirt.
I can't sleep with the t-shirt on.
Why?
What?
I don't know, I feel like I'm outside still.
You know, when I take the tissue off,
in my head it signifies like,
okay, we're going to bed or I'm going in the bath.
Are you the type of person who like,
when doing like a serious like heavy shit,
like you have to like take your shirt off?
No, but, but, but.
Wait, wait.
No, I know people like like.
Go, go, go, go, go back.
You know, no people like that?
No.
Where it's just like, if like,
I had a few friends where like,
like, if the pain was like really fucking,
like, it was such a powerful shit,
They'll be like to like fully get out like 100% of their power
they would take this shirt off.
You're trolling me.
You're just, no, no, no.
You know, I know people like that.
You're just like fuck man, I need to take my shirt off
to get serious with the shit.
But also, how do you not know people like that?
This is satire.
No fucking camera.
No fucking way is it true right now.
I'm serious, I'm serious.
What I think like fucking Goku with weighted training,
with weighted shirts or something?
It's just like, hold on.
Let me use 100% of my power
to push this shit out.
Yeah.
Because you're like sweating.
so hard, you're just like, I need to take my shirt off.
But like, what if, okay, also when you're,
when you're, when you're, when you're,
hung over, the shits are terrible, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So you're like, fuck, I mean, I just woke up,
I'm naked, so, fuck it, I'll do it when I'm naked.
Not gonna lie, I've had moments where the shit's been so,
like, it's powerful and stressful, where I'm just like,
I have to take my shirt up.
I don't know, I don't do that, but I know people who do.
Yeah, I don't know if it's, like, placebo, but like, it works.
He's fucking cry.
You can imagine, like, fucking, like,
entire one was like on the shit.
You know the only time I, I, I, when I'm like,
if I'm ever like vomiting, I wanna be naked.
What?
Because I wanna get that shit anywhere or smell my clothes.
So I'm like, I'll just get naked and I'll hug this toilet bowl until I'm done.
But if you're hugging it then like there's no way you're gonna fucking like onto your shirt.
I just don't want that shit in my clothes at all, man.
I'm like, I don't know.
I just, and also feels better.
I don't know why.
I feel like, I need to get like, it's too restricted.
I'm getting stuffy in these, I just wanna vomit.
Like, I don't know, like when I was, like,
Oh, did you vomit without your-
Well, well, well, well.
Because every time I've seen you vomit, you have clothes on, so.
Well, when I, oh yeah, true.
I was, I'm drunk.
Yeah, but like, when I'm like, you have like,
if you're really sick, you're like, when I had food poisoning,
back at like, whenever, you know,
when they thought I had the rona.
Like, I was, like, vomiting and I had to be, like,
naked because I was like, otherwise,
I thought I'd get on my clothes and I'm like,
that's gross, it's so fun.
Little did you know that during the chess tournament,
every time you went to take a shit,
He just fucking rip off his suit.
That was awful when I was taking a shit
with the suit on.
I'm like, please, please don't get it on the suit.
That's the worst timing to take a shit
is when you're in a full suit.
Like, oh, it's gross.
Because like for me, wearing a t-shirt in bed
is just like, sometimes, especially in the winter,
you wake up and it's like a cold fucking morning.
Yeah. I love that.
And like, how do you escape your duvet at that point?
Yeah.
Just, it's like, I don't know, being branded.
You're like, just fucking do you.
Do it.
No, for me it's just like gravity has increased tenfold
in this bed and it's like,
I'm like experiencing 10 G's in this bed right now.
It's like I actually can't get off.
It literally takes me like an hour to get out of bed.
I don't know, I have like the fucking call of duty,
like text pop it up my screen, mission, get to the shower.
Like that's what it's like for me.
I have to do like one limb at a time
to be like, all right let me just get my right arm out
and once that's like room temperature,
then I'll get my right leg out.
It's like, all right, now I can go.
I used to have like a heated thing
that you could put onto your bed.
Right.
But that just made me lazier, so I got rid of it.
What do you mean?
Because I never wanted to leave the bed.
Like a heated bed.
Like a heated thing under the mattress.
Right, right, right.
It was like just always warm, but then I was like,
this is also a fire hazard.
And yeah, I just don't, I cannot get out of bed
with this thing.
Yeah, that's true.
I mean, okay, have we talked about a katatsu's last before?
I don't remember.
I don't think we have.
Explain them to the audience, don't.
So, I mean, they watch anime.
You watch anime, right?
You know what a katatsu.
If you don't know what a katatsu is,
It's basically like a heated coffee table
where it's like a little coffee table
where that has blankets around it
and you put your legs in it and you put them under
and it's all nice and cozy and warm.
And it is amazing.
I don't know about amazing.
I think it's fucking amazing.
I remember there's a few logistical issues
that crop up with a such a ass.
Well, how many legs can fit under there.
Depends how big the table is.
Depends how big.
It's normally not that big.
It's normally, you can come
I'm probably fit two people's legs.
No.
I mean, are you comparing this to my katatsu,
which is fucking tiny?
No, no, no, like a normal katatsu.
Because like I wanna stretch my legs fully out
underneath that thing, right?
You can only really fit like two before you start,
like, you start touching people's legs.
I don't want to touch Joey's legs.
Oh, not.
Disgusting.
All my homies touch legs.
I don't want to play footsie with Joey under the table.
Why, I want to?
I want to.
I want to.
I want to twiddle toes while I call Uno.
What if you don't know them?
I mean, you probably do know the world.
Yeah, exactly.
If you're sharing it to Kutuzza.
I'm not sharing your Kutuzza with a fucking stranger.
Yeah. Why not?
That should be a, that's weird.
That should be in a restaurant.
That's weird.
It's nice, but then also I find that it's like,
because you, I know you could turn it up and down,
but it's like, it's either like, I would rather the room be hot
than my legs be hot.
Does that make sense?
No, I would not rather that.
Okay, I've, I literally had this problem recently,
which is like why I get reminded why I really don't fucking like winter, right?
So unlike these boys, I fucking hate the cold
And I love the cold.
And like the reason I hate it is because, you know,
you're in a cold room and you wanna get comfortable.
So what do you do?
You put on the heater, but I hate the feeling
of a stuffy room.
Right.
Like this room's getting a bit, you're from a stuffy country though.
Have you considered wearing another item of clothing?
No, no, no, no.
Because there's a problem because you,
if you wear like a fucking jumper or something
and the room's cold, then your fucking hands are cold.
And like, you're just trying to,
It is not that cold.
It is not that cold.
It is not that cold.
Do you, like, does the blood circulate to your fingers enough?
Or like, yeah, my fucking feet, like, before we turn on the seat, my fucking fever,
ice cold, man.
I am not joking.
I, I, I get cold limbs.
You're a fucking lizard with your body, like, what the fuck?
No, I just, I, my body was just not built for the colds and there's nothing more uncomfortable
for me.
They're just, in the opposite.
Yeah.
Than just a stuffy room, because like, sometimes I'm like, maybe I'm getting ill.
And then I realize, I go outside.
and it's because the room's so stuffy
that I haven't realized
how I'm comfortable I'm feeling.
But that's why I very rarely turn on the heater
unless it's like a seriously cold
because for me it's like if I'm cold,
I'll just wear another layer of clothing.
And then A, the room isn't stuffy
and B, I'm warm.
But also it's really easy to make a room not stuffy.
You just open a window for like one minute
after you've heated the room up.
It won't be cold after one.
Yeah, but then after you open the window,
then it gets cold again.
And then the cycle continues.
Not in one minute.
There is like never, there is never like a perfect temperature
that I'm like happy with when it's winter.
Because if I need to like artificially warm it up,
then either it's gonna be too stuffy or I'm gonna be too cold.
There is no in between.
But there's something so nice about being in a warm room
knowing it's freezing outside.
There's something that's so magical about that.
It's like going to bed in a thunderstorm, right?
Like there's something comforting about it.
I don't know if you guys like that.
I just gave you like the, like, the way.
I just gave you like the thousand yards standing.
Like you were like, yeah, you guys don't know I'm talking about.
No, no, no, I like it.
I like, I know what you mean.
Yeah, yeah.
It's like the, it's just like white noise outside.
Yeah, it's, it's something comforting about like,
outside is fucked right now, but I'm safe inside, dry and warm.
Like, some of the best sleeps I've had
have been like camping on the floor,
but because it's so fucking freezing outside
and you're in a little like worm cocoon, it's so nice.
Yeah, I agree. I agree. I agree.
I just like, I just like being comfortable existing, I guess.
I don't want to do anything to make my existence more comfortable.
I just like being in a room and being like, okay, I can do whatever I want.
I think you just spoke on behalf of all humanity.
I just want a comfortable existence.
He just wants to fucking wear a turtleneck in his room
and be a happy boy.
Honestly, what's wrong with that? I don't want to put on a heater.
Okay, to be honest, the only reason why I, okay, two reasons why I don't wear turtlenecks.
A, you're like an asshole.
I look like a dick.
And B, my neck.
Yeah, no, you can make it work.
Come on.
Come on.
I can't make it work.
I look like a fucking weirdo with a turtle neck.
But B, like my neck for some reason, I don't know what it is.
It exerts so much fucking heat that, like,
legit, like, that's the reason why, like, I fucking, like,
I can't wear a scarf either.
Because when I wear a scarf, my neck gets so fucking sweaty.
I fucking love wearing scarves.
I know.
Scarves are great.
I like wearing scarves too, but only if it's like,
like I'm talking like, you know, minus 10, minus 20 degrees.
Literally the reason I started wearing total necks
had nothing to do with like me thinking toe necks looks nice.
I just remember the first time I put on a turtleneck,
I'm like, oh, this is like permanently wearing a scarf
that I'd never have to take off.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
This is like perfect for me.
Exactly, because I fucking love the feeling of wearing scar.
Exactly, but like it doesn't matter like how cold it is for me.
I don't know why, I get so sweaty around my neck.
Who needs renewable energy when we can just use Joey's fucking neck
to power the planet?
You can just all huddle around my neck like this
and just warm your hands up
my neck.
Like I don't know what, I don't know what it is.
Like my neck is always so fucking hot.
And which sucks because people have always told me,
oh yeah, you look really good in the scarf.
Yeah.
And I'm like, yeah, I like wearing scar stuff.
I like the feeling of it.
But I can only wear it from me like.
You say that you're fine, but you're not really fine.
Yeah, exactly.
It's like, it's like, I like wearing a scarf
and I think I look good in a scarf.
But the problem is I can't wear a scarf
for more than two minutes, because then I'm just like,
fuck this, it's so hot.
I can't overheating, overloading,
yeah.
I, kind of on topic, okay,
Yeah, going back to why I like Kotatsu's is that katatsu is like,
I can feel warmer katatsu and not feel stuffy.
So it's like one of like the few spaces where I'm just like,
if I'm getting hot, I can just roll on the katatsu and-
But that's the problem I have with Kotatsu.
It's the exact same problem I have with beds in winter.
It's that the moment I enter the Kotatsu,
the G's jack up to like 10 G's and I can't leave it.
Yeah, yeah, I felt the same way.
Also, how are we like sitting on the floor?
Like sitting on the floor isn't that kind of,
comfortable for me.
Right.
And Kotatsu's you normally have to sit on the floor
because I need some like, I need some like back support man.
But there's those chairs, there's the best of those chairs.
Yeah, those are pretty good but like most of the time
they don't really have those, do they?
It's just kind of like you just sit, put your leg,
and you gotta put your hands back,
if you can lean back a little bit.
I mean, you can lean back on the couch.
Yeah, I mean, if there's a couch there,
sometimes people don't have that.
I mean, I'm being nip- You should just bring your own,
like, fucking pol-door chairs.
Wherever I go.
You have a cotatzu? I'm coming.
I'm like, that guy with the camping chair,
like flips it out with one hand.
I'm like, I'm ready for the Kotatsi.
Exactly.
I'm ready to be comfortable.
Honestly, like Katatsu is,
I remember the first time I tried out of Katatsu
here in Japan and it was like,
instant life changing moment.
What do you mean?
It's just a warm table.
What are you like, how's it life changing?
Come on, come on, come on.
Come on.
Like, you have some of those moments
where you're just like,
how did I go my entire life without this?
Like, okay, it is pretty fucking warm.
Because heated toilet seats.
The first time I went to Japan
and tried a heated toilet seats,
I'm just like, how is the rest of the first world
Like other first world countries haven't caught on to this.
Yeah, I won't lie.
I think I have actually ruined toilets for myself.
Because whenever I go to a toilet now that doesn't have a bidet,
I legit feel like I'm done.
I have a panic attack.
I legit feel like, how am I first to wash my ass clean?
Wipe it, are you kidding me?
I'm not an animal.
I don't touch that area.
Dude, if I ever move back to the UK, no joke.
I'm 100% invest in a bit.
The suitcase is empty, dude.
I'm making room for the premium $1,000 bidet.
Because I'm using that shit daily.
I want a shit like a king.
And like I remember Proz-D, I was talking to him as well one time,
he was like, dude, when he went back from,
when he came back from Japan, the one thing he brought
was a bidet.
Really?
Because he was like, I insist.
He has taste, man.
He was arguing, he was like, I insist that I shit like a king.
And I'm like, honestly, I completely understand it.
Because what did you get used to a bidet?
And you get the heated seat, you know, you get the,
you get a little pressure washer, you can have it set to like,
boom, boom, boom, boom, like go back and forth on your ass cheeks.
It's nice, dude.
I might, my ass feels permanently clean.
Why wouldn't I want to shower for my ass every time I shit?
Like, are you kidding me?
Sometimes I don't even shit, but I do it
because I'm like, why not clean my ass?
Why not?
I got some time.
Why don't make my ass feel refreshed?
Because you know, sometimes right, man,
you have those days where like, it's a hot day,
and you get like swamp ass, you know what I mean?
Well, your ass just gets kind of sweaty.
Yeah, it's not even bad, but just a little bit, right?
You're like, why not just clean?
Yeah, so you're butt-eachies, so you talk,
okay, I completely mis-on this,
so you're not talking about it's heated,
The heated seat is also amazing.
You're talking about bidet.
Yeah, the bidet and, but the heated seats
part of the bidet package, right?
Even the cheapest one is happening.
Okay, I don't use the washing,
ass washing function of the bidet at all.
Why not?
Fucking, it just, it just doesn't feel clean.
I don't know, it's clean.
I don't know, it's the cleanest thing in the toilet.
It does not, I like, I-
You are kidding me.
Okay, so you-
This is like going to space to be like,
yeah, I never look at the window.
Why would I?
Why would I look at the window?
So like you bidet your ass, right?
You got the water shooting up your ass,
and then you stop it, and then you just gotta fuck,
you just got, you just got wet arts,
so you get some of the toilet paper
and you just dry it a little bit.
Yeah, you dry it off.
Yeah, because like you need the toilet paper,
but it doesn't feel clean without that wipe.
Like, yeah, but okay, some of them have,
some of them have dryers, and those are pretty good.
No, no, no, I, I, I, I, I,
have you tried, have you tried?
I have tried.
Fuck off, I have tried.
No, no, no.
Okay, yeah, because there's a difference
between wiping to dry
Why are we talking about this about it?
There's a difference in wiping to dry your ass
and wiping to get the shit out.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
They're very different types of wipes, right?
One is, like a deep wipe.
What is like a shower?
What is an excavation?
Look, look, the other is a pat down.
Look, look, toilet papers were not designed
to wipe wet asses.
No, because your ass isn't,
your ass isn't the fucking, like, Amazon River, dude.
It's a little moist, yeah, just wipe that shit dry.
What I hate is when you have a wet ass after a day,
you go to wipe it,
and the toilet paper just fucking
to since grace on your hands.
Bro, what, what, are you using?
How much water are you fucking, like, using?
Okay, look, how much water can your asshole
in vertical position contain?
It doesn't matter of all.
It's fucking toilet paper.
What ply are you using, Garn?
What ply are you using?
One ply?
What are you using, one, fucking sandpaper?
What are you using, though?
You gotta use the double, though, at least.
Oh, double minimum, come on.
No, toilet, what, what ply are using God asked you?
What does I, what's a ply?
How many sheets of paper is used, did it?
Yeah.
Are you using, like, one square and be like,
shit, I'm all out?
It doesn't fucking matter.
When you, anyone who lives in Asia,
anyone who lives in Asia knows that toilet paper here
is weak as fuck.
That sounds broke as fuck.
You sound broke right now, gone.
I can't believe how much,
peasant jokes is.
I thought, like, cause I thought it was just,
it was just a Thai thing where toilet paper
was just like fucking flaccid.
No, I moved to Japan and toilet paper here
is like fucking weak as fuck.
You can buy the good shit.
Yeah, you get the double ply shit
and then you do like, maybe like one wrap around your hand.
That's more than enough to absorb any amount of liquid
That's down there.
You pile on three little sheets.
Yeah, yeah.
Right, that's a nice nickness to it, right?
They're two plumb-y.
Like, at least like that thing.
And then just get under there, it won't rip.
Good.
And yeah.
And your ass is clean and it's dry.
I cannot believe you would come here.
Like, honestly, Badey's in the top three things
about Japan, if I'm gonna be honest with you.
Yeah. He did toilet seats.
Bade's, okay.
The whole shitting experience.
Yeah.
The whole toilet experience.
It's like a top three Japanese thing for me, man.
Like, it's just great.
Okay, another thing about Bade's as well.
I'm not the thing about Badez as well.
Like it shoots up right up your asshole, right?
That's exactly what I want.
And then you just feel like you're fucking shitting out water.
And so like, how gaped is your asshole?
Do you like, goate-sew?
Yeah, he's like this, like, just sit down on it, man.
There's just fucking water stuck in your asshole, man.
You know what?
You fucking, are you like giving yourself
like a prostate massage on a bidet?
No, it's just like, it's just natural.
Because- Do you get water stuck in your anus?
No.
No, me, how do you do that?
It's your, what is your asshole?
Are you putting your asshole over the Biddy, like thing?
Like, are you, are you putting it in?
Yeah, are you putting the hose in?
No, but the stream of water is fucking strong enough.
Put it down, put it down.
Why you're like, you probably said it to like,
fucking pressure hose, like, like,
public fountain display.
No, no, no, because if it's not strong,
then it's just a fucking trickle on your ass,
and that's not cleaning up shit.
That is called medium.
Yeah, you need the fucking, you need the fucking,
pressure to fucking clean that shit off your ass.
But if it has enough pressure to clean the shit off your ass,
then you're getting water stuck in your ass off.
No, you're not.
There is no in between.
No, you're not.
I have my bidet is on the fucking max pressure
and it's perfect.
Yes, because like, because you can feel the shit coming off
and I mean, I don't know about you,
but my asshole is normal.
Fucking ironclad asshole right here, man.
Just clench it a bit.
Yeah, I clench it a little bit.
Yeah, because if you clench,
then you're not fucking cleaning you properly.
You're watching when you're shitting.
What are you being?
Wait, you're not cleaning it properly
when you clench? Of course you are.
Yeah.
What do you like clench?
Wait, you clench when you fucking bidet that shit?
That's like a little bit.
Yeah, put her up your ass off a little bit.
Again, God is like,
relax my anus, allow the water to flow in.
Like, what are you doing?
You're like giving yourself a fucking, like,
Biday animal, like.
That's what it feels like.
It honestly feels like I'm getting,
and I'm taking a fucking Bete enema every time.
You are doing this totally wrong, God.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
Wait, because like I don't clench when I shit.
What do you mean?
What, you're just like, I let gravity do its work.
What is this a fun slip and slide you around?
How is this shit coming up?
How loomed up is your ass-all?
What do you mean, just mean push?
Yeah, punch, that's the same thing normally.
No, that's no, okay, that doesn't help with a bidet.
It still goes up the fucking asshole,
even if you fucking push that shit out.
We need an anatomy of your assail.
Yeah, I need, we need an x-ray of your assail
so we can see what,
can we get like a bidet cam just to see like,
how fucking loose your ass on.
is when it gets medaid.
I just don't like the feeling of like water on my ass.
And I don't know.
So wait, what about in the shower?
Yeah, what are you clean your ass with?
No, I, I, okay, so you, you know, you know when-
Do you clean your ass gone?
Yeah, I clean my fucking ass.
You talked about the sweaty, you talked about the sweaty fitting
on your ass off, yeah, Swampass.
Yeah, if I get swam pass, I just take a fucking shower, man.
I don't even batheed that shit.
Yeah, I thought.
That's so unnecessary.
I can take, I can take three showers a day if I need to.
It goes home, he's like, fuck, got a shower now, man.
Honestly, honestly, like sometimes if I wanna feel clean
after a shit, I just take a fucking shower man.
Quick five in it.
What are you doing in these toilets?
You're like, gone, gone is that one dude
when you leave some public restrooms
that's like a fucking war zone.
Yeah.
Like that must be gone.
That is my house.
There's shit everywhere, shit on the wall.
It's like that is gone.
It's gone going in the restroom.
It's like in places you didn't think shit would end up.
It's the fucking opposite, man.
God's like, why would I use a bidet
when it can't reach the wall?
My shit's, like my shit's,
Like my shits are like the cleaner shits, you know.
Fuck off.
They are.
There's not such thing as a clean shit.
Wait, so.
Okay, no.
Have you never had like the perfect shit?
The no wipes, yeah.
Like the swish is like, the perfect shit,
which is just like you just shit out a log and it's like one solid clean log.
And then you look at it and it's like no wipe, you look at it and you're just like,
man, that's a fucking piece of all right there.
In my family we call that the swish because it doesn't touch the sides.
I hope no one's eating during you.
this episode.
Yo, I just did a swish right there, man.
You don't eat a fucking bidet after you did that fucking swish, man.
I mean, I still like it though.
I still do it anyway because it feels good.
To me, that is like the equivalent, right,
of coming to Japan and just being like, yeah, man,
I just ate only KFC and Burger King.
It's like, you've wasted the true potential of Japan.
Like, what have you done?
Like you, you, it is on par, honestly, with food
to me about Japan.
Like food's amazing and the shitting experience
is also Godlock.
I actually look forward to taking a shit.
I can't wait to crack open the bidet
and just feel amazing.
Crack open the, crack open the,
crack open the bidet with the boys.
Crack open the bidet, you know,
and just have a great fucking time.
Yeah.
You shit for pleasure.
Honestly, I used to shit
because it was a bodily function.
Now I look forward to my shits.
Yeah.
Because it's Japan. And they figured out
how to make shitting an enjoyable experience.
I mean, I look forward to shitting
for like other reasons.
Like the bidet is just like not one of them.
What's the other reason?
Did you have a warm ass?
Yeah, well, one, I have warm
and there's like two fucking sacred places for me
and one is the shower
and the other one is when I'm taking the shit.
Right, no, probably like my channel
wouldn't exist if I couldn't shit or shower.
Where the fuck am I gonna get my ideas from?
Are you having fucking existential crisis in the toilet?
Fuck, yes I am. Who doesn't?
Do you not?
No, because taking a shit for me is enjoyable.
Yeah, I have a great time.
That's the reason, like, people think that I take such a long time
because I'm having like a mental breakdown time.
No, I'm just having a fucking great time.
I'm just like, why would I leave early
when I'm having this much fun right here?
It's so fun.
I fucking love shitting badees are just,
I don't know, in Thailand, we have like an even worse thing,
which is like, it's like a self bidet, right?
So in like most Southeast Asian countries,
we don't have like the auto on your ass bidet.
We have like a little, like a shower head,
like a mini shower head that you have to like put between your legs.
Oh, some European countries have that too, right?
Yeah, pretty sure.
The little bowl, the thing that, like the little bowl next to it
or you do it in the toilet itself?
It's like the little bolting thing,
but without the ball.
And at that point, like, I don't know,
I've always hated that feeling,
because then you just get wet balls.
That's too much, because the bidet is precise
with where it's aimed, right?
And when you've used your own bidet long enough,
you know where to aim.
The bidet is like sniping your ass-old.
Yeah, you know where it's gonna go, yeah.
And you know the radius of which it'll spray.
Yeah, yeah.
So you've got it down or not, right?
Oh my God.
How long we've been talking about it.
How long we've been talking about
shouring our assholes.
Because I want, I've always wanted to talk about
on the podcast, because it's one of the,
no joke, the most enjoyable parts of Japan.
I know what to call this episode now,
the Japanese toilet experience.
The shitting Japanese experience.
I know where a golden recum experience comes from now,
and it's when you're on the fucking toilet.
Did you get like, were you a bit worried
when you first saw how to operate the bidet
when you first came to Japan?
Yeah, I think a lot of British people are,
because it's like the thought of spraying your ass
is so foreign to us.
Yeah. Also, I think that you and Alan did again
the first time you went to the fucking hotel bidet.
We were curious at how the bidet knew
when you were sitting on it.
Yeah, yeah.
So the bathroom was like a wet room.
So we were like, okay, well,
doesn't matter if there's bidet sprays everywhere.
So we had like a few drinks,
we were like, let's figure out how the bidet works.
So we figured out the bidet won't spray
unless there's pressure on the seat.
Yeah, yeah, and then it was like spraying
on the wall because no one was sitting up.
And so it was spraying.
Oh yeah, this thing was going far.
It was spraying on the wall.
It was crazy.
That's the pressure that goes up your arson.
And that's what I want going on my ass.
That's the pressure goes up your fucking awesome.
I have a traumatic story of,
because I, and our house in Australia,
we always had a bidet
because my mom was like, I can't look without a bidet.
So it's like, she's Japanese and she's shit like a king.
Why would you go back to shooting like a peasant?
She's like, let me teach you.
Let me teach you Australians how to shit like a king.
So we had it in our house.
But of course, when I was little,
I didn't use the bidet, right?
Because I didn't know what the fuck it was.
I was just like, oh, buttons,
but I didn't fucking press any of them.
I remember first time seeing a bidet
and I'm just like,
yo, do I need to do I need a license to operate this shit?
I feel like if I press the long button,
like this toilet's gonna take off.
Here is like the fucking operating system
of the bidet that you can see on screen right now,
especially like going to Japan the first time
and it's all in the different language as well.
When I was little, I never knew how to use the bidet, right?
Because I was just learned to like,
just make sure to wipe and wash your hands and then you'll be good.
But, you know, when you get to like around like age six or seven,
you start to get a little bit curious what these buttons are,
you're just like, what, I wonder what this is.
So I did the fatal mistake though.
So I pushed the the bidet, like start the beday button.
But I made the fatal mistake of getting up on the woman
of getting up off my seat and looking down at the toilet box.
Oh no, spray you in the face.
So I fucking sprayed me in the eye.
And there's just water going everywhere
and I'm like, I don't know how to stop this,
what the fuck's happening?
I actually thought I broke my toilet.
So I called my mom and I'm just like,
Mom, come in, she came in,
fucking bidet water going everywhere in this toilet.
It's just like, what the fuck?
And then the last thing she said,
like she finally stopped it and she's like,
you could have at least like flush your shit, man.
Like I didn't have to see that.
But also the bidet water is also warm.
Yeah. So it is literally like a warm shower.
It is like a warm shower.
Only W's, only W's.
And the thing is, right, is that, you know,
if you're an American or you're just a Westerner in general
and you come and you see this toilet, yeah,
it can be daunting, right?
Because, you know, normally things don't go near your ass.
You're not used to that.
No, no.
Just embrace it. It feels good.
You know, it's scary.
But once you admit that things feel good
when they spray your ass.
Yeah.
Like it's like discovering a new fetish.
It's like, you know what?
Just give it a go.
It's like, yeah, does it feel a little erotic?
I'm just, it feels fucking.
It does, but you know, if it feels good,
the wet ass afterwards just doesn't feel good.
Try it, just dry it, man.
Just try it, man.
Then it doesn't feel clean.
I don't know, my asshole doesn't feel properly clean.
There is no proper shit.
Like, I don't feel properly clean after a wipe.
I feel like 90% clean after a wipe.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Because you know there's always gonna be a little bit left.
Right, right.
Like, you know that bidet is scraping that shit off.
It's like washing your hands without soap.
It's like you might feel clean,
but you don't really until you use that soap.
I know, I need to physically feel my asshole being clean
and not like getting it washed.
I don't know.
I need to feel that shit, man.
I need to confirm with my own hands.
Well, that's what you should do.
You should use the bidet and then wipe it with your hand
and see if it's still there.
Because like, it doesn't feel properly clean to me
unless I fucking shower.
Like my asshole never feels clean unless I shower
and I properly soap in it.
This man's like wasting fucking buckets of water
to clean his ass.
When you can just be using a bidet.
No, you could never take too many showers.
I love the feeling of taking a shower.
I'm pretty sure you can take too many shower.
I don't know.
Your skin is like natural oil that it needs.
Yeah, yeah.
You can't get rid of it gone.
I don't know, like for me, I love the feeling,
especially in summer when it's hot,
just taking like a nice, a nice cold shower.
That's a little different though.
That's a bit different.
But like even now in the winter, I take like three showers.
Like I get a bit cold.
You take three showers?
Yeah, sometimes.
Why?
But not not like.
No, no, you don't fucking upload videos,
you're in the fucking shower.
Not not, not like, not like properly long shower.
It's just like sometimes I get a bit cold.
Like, yeah, like I said, my, like either I'm too stuffy or I'm too cold.
So sometimes I can't be bothered to wait for the fucking heater to go on.
Just pop in the shower, like get a bit of warm water in me.
All right.
You are, I'm back up, I'm back up to warm.
This man spends more time in the shower thinking of ideas
than actually community.
This man is not the clown.
Here's the whole circus.
You know what's also fucked up as well about you gone?
I hate to bully you this episode,
but you don't use your bath at all, do?
You and Sydney don't take baths.
I don't either, though.
No, I mean, okay, I don't like taking a bath in like,
it feels like I'm in like a prison cell bath.
You know what I mean?
I feel like I'm taking a, like, okay,
so Japanese baths are fucking tiny.
They're not bad, yours isn't that bad.
You can sit in there.
Okay, if I can't stretch my legs out in the bath,
then it's not even a bath to me.
Well, I don't even stretch them out fully.
It's a glorified sink in that place.
No.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, the point is you have to take a bath like, like this.
You do the fucking- It's not that bad.
The L-V-L position?
No.
I'm like, okay.
It's not that bad.
I take like, I would say 90% baths, 10% showers.
Really?
No, no.
Yeah, honestly.
Because in Japan, right, the best thing is, is that you can like reserve your bath.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
As it says.
Yeah.
Which is like, if you know what time you're waking up, you can set the bath to be full and
or by that time.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Which, why the fuck do we not have this in any-
It's the biggest brain move?
Like, would they have like fucking NASA in the US,
but they haven't figured out how to fucking schedule a bath?
Like, I know what time I'm gonna wake up.
I know what time I need to be in that bathtub.
Why can I not do this basic fucking function?
Right, right, right?
And then also, you have one button,
you know, like, because in the UK, right,
what you have to do is turn the tap on,
and keep checking on it every five minutes.
Yeah.
Pain in the ass.
In Japan, there's one button that fills it up
to the perfect amount or the amount you set
at the exact temperature that you set.
How is, this is the, this is the,
the fucking future man.
Like, why wouldn't I take a bath every day?
I just feel like for me, baths are just not
ergonomically designed for me.
Cause like I feel like I'm too tall to properly appreciate
a good bath, right?
You're not that much tall than Connor.
You're not that much tall than me wet.
Okay, because like I love onsense, right?
The reasons I love onsense is I'm submerging water
and I'm in a comfortable position.
I can never get in a comfortable position
in any of, in any of the baths
I've like ever owned in my life.
Because here's the issue, right?
So I wanna stretch my legs out,
but then my body is above
of the water.
So you go submerge yourself and then you unsubmerge
and then your body just gets cold, right?
Peak bath position, right?
It's like the water's up to like here.
Yeah.
Your arms are out at the tub.
You know, maybe watching something there?
Like that's the best.
Yeah.
Maybe you've got a beer as well.
Because then your upper body is like cold.
I like, no, no, no, no.
It's the perfect temperature control.
Yeah.
Because your head is like free,
you've got this bit getting cold
and then you got the rest of your body boiling.
Also, because the bath water is so hot,
it, the hot, like the steam from the hot water
makes the room warm as well.
Yeah, it's, I feel like you just haven't given baths
the true shot they deserve gone.
No, I mean, Japan, again,
you're wasting another potential of Japan,
which is how fucking good the baths are.
No, the baths are way too small here.
I don't wanna be sitting.
If my, if my legs are curled,
then that's not a bath to me.
I, what we're doing?
You're not fucking daddy long legs in this,
like you're not that much tall.
Next time I'm going to your house.
Baths are meant to be relaxing.
And I understand, I need, I need to be in a company.
I don't fucking believe you.
That's why I love onsends and I just don't take baths.
Showers, showers to me are just more relaxing.
I don't believe. Next time I'm going to your house,
I'm forcing you to get in the bath with your clothes on.
Just sit there.
I want to judge this position.
It's bullshit. I don't believe you.
Yeah, we have one in the studio. Go in this one.
Okay, well, after this episode.
That one's tiny as well.
That one's too tiny.
That one is actually smaller than normal,
but we'll get gone in there and what's going on.
We'll post a screenshot.
The other thing of like, I have,
like, the only times I've had baths is in my home
in England and I don't know, like the way,
okay, like, do you, okay, when you're in a bath,
do you put your legs towards the tap
or do you put like your back towards the tap?
Legs towards the tap always,
what animal puts their back towards the tap?
Because the tap is always like, I don't know,
I always have like, I don't know if it's just me,
but sometimes sometimes I like accidentally hit the tap
and it's either too hot or too cold
and it just like ruins the entire vibe for me.
You want the legs there because they're like,
you don't wanna burn your back.
I've actually done that before, and I think that's just,
I don't think that's just completely,
you are a clown, you are a clown,
you are a clown right here.
Also, I saw your bath at your parents' house,
it wasn't that nice, come on, come on, come on, come on,
come on, come on, come on.
Like, even if I'm in a fucking nice hotel,
I'm like, I don't take a fuck to this.
Bro, there's nothing better than a hotel
that is a big ass bag.
Yeah, I agree.
That's like, that's like the only time
where I'm exclusively like fuck showers,
I'm going in that bar.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, always, always.
Also, I like the feeling or just having, like,
water, like, spraying on you.
I don't know, it's just like a nice,
well, then go out into the rain.
Honestly, okay, honestly like,
rain in Southeast Asia is fucking great, okay?
Cause I like, we, when we think of rain,
we think of like cold, fucking depressing British rain
that just fucking, it's like God blew a fucking raspberry in you
and I hate that feeling, right?
But in Thailand, when it rains, it fucking pours.
And it's probably like, and it's warm as well.
It's like taking a warm shower.
It doesn't I feel like you're just getting
Yeah, it also it's so fucking humid
because it was doing that in Japan
in the summer it was raining
and it was like deceiving because I'm like,
finally I'll be cold.
But no, it was just more fucking heat
directly applied to my skin.
That's what I hated about
when I went to the Philippines, like for the first time
and it was like May, so it wasn't even like properly hot yet.
Yeah. But because it's the Southeast Asia,
it's still fucking hot in May.
Yeah, and the moment I got outside,
my hair just fucking turned into an afro
because of the amount of humidity.
And then there was a pool where we were staying.
So I was like, oh, thank God, I can finally jump in the pool
and I'll cool myself off.
No, because it was so fucking humid outside,
it was like walking into a fucking puddle of piss.
Like it was, it was horrible.
I was like, I like heated pools
and I like regular pools, but the temperature of this pool
is like halfway in between of that,
and it was just like lukewarm kind of water.
That makes you feel like someone's shit in it.
Yeah, right?
It doesn't make the water feel clean.
It's like perfect bacteria temperature.
It makes you feel real gross.
Exactly, yeah.
Bro, that's why cold showers are like fucking amazing.
They are amazing.
I mean, that's why when I used to swim in public pools,
the best ones were like the ones that are initially cold,
but you get warm as you swim.
Exactly, yeah.
Because that's like nice,
because it also forces you to keep swimming.
Yeah. And you don't get too comfortable.
That's the ones where you just like, you feel the water
and you're like, oh, that's cold.
But I'm just gonna commit and just fully jump in
and submerge my body all at once.
And then you're fine after that.
Yeah, yeah.
I'm like this.
I can't believe you're just an animal gone.
I can take the person out of Thailand,
but you can't.
Don't take the peasant.
Sorry, sorry, the Thailand don't a pest.
Fuck, I messed that up.
I have the superior taste.
I'm just, I'm just, don't eat crust.
Look, this, I just want to exist happily.
You know what I mean?
That's all I want to do.
I want you to exist correctly, Gar.
I want you to use the bidet when you can
and I want you to take a bath every now.
Treat yourself, God.
Yeah, treat yourself.
I don't, you're better than that.
I don't want a wet fucking ass.
You don't have to be, wipe.
That's what toilet paper was invented for.
Then I don't want wet fucking fingers
after I wipe. That's just, how fucking weird is your ass?
Are you pouring your ass out with your bare hands?
What are you doing?
Maylene, your hands don't get wet when you use a bidet, do they?
Right? See?
It is disgusting. That's why I hate it.
I am using toilet paper.
He's just using his hands.
He's using the heat of friction to warm his ass back up
to evaporate the water of his cheeks.
What are you doing, gone?
His ass cheeks is like...
Okay, you know what? I want to watch you shit after this.
I want to see what you're doing.
I need to judge your text.
You're doing it all wrong.
Just fucking do it.
I'm ready.
Shit review, let's go.
Can we get a GoPro inside of the toilet bowl
to see what's going on?
Yeah, I want a bidet camp just to see.
I need to see what's going on.
You see what you're doing in this fucking bowl gone.
Next special.
The bidet special.
The Bade special.
Will Gart be able to learn how to use a bidet correctly?
Needless to say, I am 100% bringing back a bidet
if I have a house.
I am bringing back a katatsu.
That is, I'm bringing back a heated toilet seat and a katatsu.
Well, you don't need the toilet seat.
You can just get the heated element, right,
and screw it on.
It's just a box that makes heat.
It's basically, yeah.
No, because you need like, you need like the heated element,
you need like the table and you need like the cover
on top of the table to like place the blanket.
Yeah, because the good thing about a Cortazus
is that in the summer you can still use it
because all you have to do is just take the sheet off.
And then turns back into a regular table.
Yeah, okay.
So it's like a specially made table, yeah.
Yeah.
Cortazos is a bomb.
Katatsu's are like the best thing in Japan.
No.
Best?
One of the best things.
Bedei, all my homies.
He did Taurus Cesar a close second.
I'm on team Badei in this instance, I think.
I love my Kotatsu, but man,
there's nothing more disgusting than a gross asshole.
I'm saying right there.
How dirty is you, I don't even wanna imagine.
Maybe you guys are just shitting wrong.
No, we're not shitting wrong, gone.
What's the wrong way of shitting?
Like, what, shit on the wall?
How is it wrong if I have a great time,
I end up perfectly clean, I'm very happy,
and my ass is wet?
I'm doing it the right way as far as I'm concerned.
Yeah, you're shitting wrong.
If you end up with a fucking swampy asshole.
Gantz like instructions unclear adopted a child.
Like what's, what are you doing on this toilet, man?
I saw your fucking life out, bro.
I'm thinking of fucking bomb-ass videos on the toilet
and in the shower as well.
Clearly not thinking about personal hygiene
or saying dry.
I am very happy with my personal hygiene.
Man, I have a poopy asshole,
but I got a great video idea.
That's exactly it, man.
That's exactly it.
That's like literally stinky poop.
Oh, stinky.
But hey, look at all these lovely patrons who are helping
to support the show.
These patrons are team bidet.
A question to you patrons this time, right?
So I did that little reference, because Gant loves to say that.
That's the joke.
Question to you.
We boys, we'd like to do a tour or something in the US.
Oh yeah, we've got to talk about that, don't we?
Would you guys be interested in us maybe doing
Trash Tastes Live across the US?
Would that be something that maybe...
It's just a very brief idea of course.
We can't do it now because of the state of the world, but...
But maybe in like a year or something.
Yeah, whenever the US gets its shit back together,
I think, like we'll definitely be open to that idea.
But are you guys open to that idea?
Is more of the question, so I guess let us know.
Gage interest if that's something you guys want to do.
So definitely let us know.
And if you like to support the show, then of course,
go over to patreon.com slash trash taste.
Also follow us on Twitter.
Check out a sub-reader, give us some memes
and listen to us on Spotify if you don't want to see our faces.
But yeah.
But why wouldn't you?
Why wouldn't you?
I want you to see in H- no, 4K, sorry, me shouting at Gant.
about having a poop-by bottle.
About our shitting technique,
which I can't believe that we've, I think,
you are literally like, like fucking gone pre-men
when you shit.
And I'm like Netero with all my eight hands
slapping this like my ass clean, dude.
You are like so inferior, you can't even fathom the level
that I am on, man.
That's all I'm gonna say.
Thank you for watching this episode of trash taste.
Yeah, hopefully you guys enjoyed it.
Comments, well, conversations will be a long nicer.
I hope you did eat this with dinner.
I really hope.
Yeah, yeah.
If you're eating this with food, I'm sorry.
We should probably have a warning at the beginning.
No, no, no, no.
You know what you're getting into.
It's trash days.
We talk about anything.
All right, see you guys.
See you later. Bye.
Bye.
