•Feb 6, 20262 months agoSummary
The Trash Taste hosts play drinking games and have candid conversations about friendship dynamics, travel mishaps, gift-giving struggles, and personal growth. The episode blends humor with deeper discussions about emotional vulnerability, social anxiety, and the challenges of maintaining relationships while traveling frequently.
Insights
- Emotional vulnerability and deep conversations require intentional time investment—the hosts note that meaningful chats happen after staying up until 5 AM, suggesting modern friendships need deliberate commitment
- Habit-building and systems thinking are critical for managing ADHD and anxiety—Connor explicitly credits programmed behaviors for never missing flights, contrasting with Joey's spontaneous approach
- Gift-giving anxiety stems from perfectionism and overthinking rather than lack of care; the solution is capturing small observations about people's interests rather than seeking the 'perfect' gift
- Drinking culture varies dramatically by geography; Japan's late-night social drinking enables stranger friendships in ways UK/Australian pub culture doesn't, suggesting cultural factors shape social bonding
- Content creators face unique risks when mixing alcohol and filming—the hosts acknowledge the 'coin flip' nature of drunk content creation and recommend strict boundaries

I'm Craig Melvin. Cheers, cheers, cheers. I've always been a glass half-full kind of guy. And now, I'm talking to some people who look at the world that way too. Some really fascinating folks who share their defining moments, their triumphs, challenges, their stories, their funny and my candid. So I hope you'll join me each week and who knows. You might just come away with your own glass half-full. Search Glass Half-full with Craig Melvin from today on YouTube and wherever you get your podcasts. Hey, welcome back to another episode of the Trash Taste podcast. I'm your host Joey and I'm with the Boys Conor and Gunt every week. And what's up? Why are you making me draw and write things down? Well, don't worry. You're not going to be drawing any illustrations. Oh, yeah. Just words because today we're going to be playing up one little game called All the Drunk Stone or Stupid. That's it. Yeah, which I'd never heard of up until about. We've done this before. What? Really? This concept. We've done this. What's the concept? You're going to have to explain some. When did we do this? Oh, but what? This is one we did the, uh, even this one? Oh, wait, but it wasn't called Drunk Stone or Stupid. No, that's the game. That's the game. Oh, that's okay. This is the first time hearing the name of the game. Well, I'm getting drunk today because it's Friday. So yeah, TGIF. Gunt just, just how was I meant to know that TGIF meant? Gunt, what are you mean again? Gunt, three minutes ago, just learned what TGIF means. The good internet. The good internet. No, yeah, we had to break it to him. Yeah, he didn't know that TGIF meant thank God it's. So, uh, yeah, TGIF, we're going to get drunk and we're going to be playing again that we've played before on Trash Taste where we're basically given a bunch of prompts that are inside of Trashbox Cone here. And we, the three of us have to see which one of the three of us is most likely to do said prompt and then kind of discuss. Okay, we're going to start off. All right. Seven. Six seven is such a shit. Okay, so I'm saying that. Bro, you've had two steps. You're good. Okay, I'm just, I just need to say it, man. Okay, okay, okay. We're not having this discussion. I refuse to have the need to say that. I don't even want to acknowledge it. Okay, first prompt. Who is most likely to say, bro, trust me right before disaster? Okay. Got our answers? Yeah. Ready, three, two, one. I think this is going to be unanimous. Yeah, three, two, one. Yeah. All three of us are called us. That's fucked up. I mean, is it any explaining to do here? I think I've done this multiple times. Yeah, I think you've done this multiple times on the show. I do say like, because like, you just need to know sometimes. You just know what? Like, I know something's going to go wrong. Yeah. But there's like a zero point food sense. It might not. I just need to know if it will happen. I think it's a very impulsive behavior of mine. What are you trying to like see validation during the time? Yes. I'm just trying to explain the thought process. Like, there is no validation. Okay. I'm just trying to let you feel what I feel. Here's a question you guys. When you go to the doctor, I've already been drinking. When you go to the doctors, right? And you have a procedure, all right? Do you agree when, you know, the doctor says, it's not going to hurt. When you went to the doctor as a kid, somebody would you rather than have just told you the truth? Well, it depends like how old am I in this scenario? Because I feel like, if you're getting your first like, flu shot at the age of five, then yeah, I don't want, wait, why am I saying what is this? What is this, Sherry? No, leave it. I'll leave it on. Have a bite. Have a bite. No, just say it. Sherry, I'm in the early back time. I insist you have a bite. No, leave it on. Leaver eats the sandwich. I want to see the sandwich. We're mid-fucking recording. That's what's saying. I'll leave it off to the show. I want to see it. I want to see the sandwich. No, it's fine. Don't worry about it. Don't worry about it. The viewers want to see the sandwich. They don't, they don't. Put it away. I want to see the sandwich. I want to see you enjoy it. Back on topic. Yeah. If, when I was like five years old, or however old I was when I got like my, you know, first chicken pox shot or flu shot or whatever it was, like that you get, you know, mandatory as a kid. Yeah. Yeah. You know, as a five year old, if the doctor was like, this shit's gonna hurt. I would have fucking bowled my eyes out. So I'm glad the doctor was like, oh, don't worry, it's not gonna hurt. And then I deal with the consequences afterwards. But as an adult now, yeah. I'll just not tell you anything. Like just let the issue blindfold you in the room. Just not explain what's happening. Yeah. It's like, just put your arm in this blind box. Yeah, we don't explain to cows when we vacc them up. Yeah. Well, yeah, that's because you don't expect a cow to be like, oh, shut up. You're better than a cow now, Jerry. Yeah. You're not welcome in India anymore. Like, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, my home country. Fuck. Do you think your pain tolerance is like learned? Because you're like, when you're a baby, totally like a baby like falls over or something. Yeah. Right. Like if, if it's not, like if you're a baby and, and they fall over and you're like, the all the adults around like, oh, my god. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Like you, because like I haven't never been right. And you can, you can see that moment where he looks around to be like, how should I react? Yeah. Bro, 100% if the adults are just like, oh, he's gonna cry. They're gonna start crying. Yeah, they're gonna start crying. But if you're just like, yeah, it's whatever. Yes. That's what I'm gonna do with my son. Like if my son falls over and he starts looking around. He's like, yeah. That won't be no door for me. Yeah. If it's door I'm putting her back. I'm joking. But like, you know, if my kid like falls over, I'm not gonna be one of those like, oh, did that hurt? Oh, my poor sweet angels be like, pick your ship back up. You're gonna do this about 300 more times before you learn to not do this. Yeah. He can be like, I got it. Yeah. Oh, you know, like for example, like, you know, when I got my first tattoo, right? Like, you know, I was like, okay, I have this preconceived notion that this shit is gonna hurt. And shocker, it did. But then I learned from that pain. And so when I got my third one, I was like, yeah, okay, I know what to expect. Did it hurt as much as the third time? No, definitely not. So was that just because you were... The first of the month killer. Yeah, was that like a skill thing? Like a skill thing? Yeah, it's a skill thing. I learned the skill of all this first one. I know where my pain tolerance is now after the first one. So now I know what to expect when I get another one. Did you get addicted though? I heard like that kind of pain could be addictive. I mean, I wanted another one. Yeah, fucking. Okay. Okay, pain junky. It's not even the pain. It's just, it's just, if I could get a tattoo and it'd be not painful at all, I'd be like, fuck yeah. Let's do one right now. All right, Garnt. All right. Big one out. What's the next topic? The next one. Makes a toast that lasts too long. Makes a what? A toast. A toast. So like a physical... Do we always have to... Okay, question. Do we always have to put someone, like one of us down or maybe like, yeah. I feel like that's the game of the game, isn't it? No, no. Shall we do it to like the trash taste, fuck it? No, no, no, no, no, that's fine. Cause it would be pee. Makes a toast. So like makes like a toast for too long. All right, not like a fucking... Yeah, it's a brain speech. Okay, you go like... We can do a group of friends. Let's do a group of friends as well. A group of friends? Like the trash taste alternate, fucking universe, whatever the... Cinematic universe. Yeah, whatever the TTCU. I don't know. No, I think we just keep it just ours for now. Just us? Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right, but then we can maybe talk about... Who else? Yeah. You know, yeah. Makes a toast for too long? Um... Fuck, well... I don't know. Okay, I don't feel 100% about the sense of it. Are you ready? Three, two, one. Oh, yeah, I don't feel 100% about this answer. Okay, we all set me by the way. The only reason why is... I don't know why. Look, I was at the bond premiere. Boy was ya, but I'm joking. But I needed to ya. I'm joking. But yes, I think Gunt is the best when it comes to words out of the three of us. I think you take your time as well. Yeah, you do take your time. You're not afraid to take your time. You don't know. That's a big fear. Like I always like thinking my hair, my hair get a great speech, and I get up there and I'm like, I don't even know. I don't even think I need to get up there and make great speech. I'm like, Jimmy, you guys having fun? All right, let's get fucked. That's it. Joey's just a simple man. I am a simple man. Action, speak louder than words as I say. I just like to put my feelings into words sometimes. Yeah, you are the best at it. I think you're very eloquent. And it's starting to bad wear. Yeah, you're the best at it, definitely. But it's just that out of all the three of us, you would be the one who perhaps takes. Yeah, too long. Yeah, yeah. I can see that. We would take the longest in our friend group. In a friend group? Yeah. Ooh. Longer than Gunt. P and A. P might just because he's just such a damn good presenter. He is. Yeah. He would spend the whole night apologizing about it. I mean, it was a great speech. But it's all right. My beer's no longer cold, man. That's cool, man. We got to hear you speak. So we, we're chillin'. All right. Let me pick one. These have been unanimous so far. This has happened unanimous so far. Okay. Tries to adopt a plant and kills it within a week. Hmm. Oh, mm. Okay. Okay. I like this one. It's just mundane enough that we might have different answers. Yeah, true. Yeah. All we might know. And if we have all the same answers, we're on the same wavelength. Yeah. Okay. We are three, we know one. Oh, we're all different. Are we all different? You say me, you bastard, Gunt. You say me. I said you, Gunt. What? I said myself. Joey said himself, Gunt said Connor and I said Gunt. Why? You would just forget. You would get ADHD brain and forget to ward your plan. I would not forget to ward your plan. Yes, you would. I would not forget. You would forget. Do you have any plans in your house right now? Oh, you really plan to your house right now? They all died. No, they aren't. I said me because I have this experience. Oh, I've had, I've tried to have a plan and then a week later, I was just like, oh, okay, it's going now. I'd also let plans start. Yeah. Yeah. But you have two now. I've never adopted a plan. Because I don't trust myself. That's why I didn't put me. So that's why I'm right. Are you have a proven track record of committing to this? I've never happened to me. That's okay. It's never happened. It's never happened. Why have you never gotten a plan? What's wrong with you? Why would I need a plan? Why would you not need a plan? Because it improves so many things like about your quality of life, especially working from home. Like what? I don't know. Is it a scientific proven that like if you have a plan in your room, you just like mental health wise, like it's just has been. I've really tried that. I've heard some sort of joke. I'm horrifically depressed. I've been trying to cactus. Yeah, see? Indoor plants, several mental physical health benefits, researchers linked house plants to reduce stress, lower blood pressure and improve state of life. And just like having like nature around you. Why, why, you do walk in your office and you see a plan? You're like, I like looking at my life. Yeah, I like looking at my plants. I like looking at my plants while they're alive. It was like, yeah, I was like, I was going to be crazy. I was going to be crazy to be alive. Right? But then I don't and then it dies and I'm like, well, all right, Tony, get another one. I just love that. It is. I look at the plant and I'm like, you're a feature failure. You're a feature, your feature, personal failure of mine, because you're going to die one day. And that's why that's true Asian parent mentality. I don't want to know my conscience. You know, nobody's a winner until I've done it. I just, yeah, that's why I've resorted to just getting cacti now. No, cactus, they're just cacti. How the fuck did you kill cacti? So you know what I found you put me? No, no, let me elaborate. I found that I would forget about the cacti, because I didn't have to water them. Yes, but I would forget so long that they would just die. But with the normal house plan, I always knew I had a water them once a week. Right. So I would do that every day. Wait, so were you watering your cacti? I watered it once when I got it. Yeah. And then I left it for two years, then I found it molding. Two years. Yeah, because I was like, I just need to be watered. Jesus Christ. This is a fucking dumb. Just get it out of the air, you dumb ass. Two fucking years. That poor child. Did it see any sunlight? Yeah. Because it needs to see sunlight. Yeah, sure. Maybe too much, in fact. Oh, okay. It just shriveled off. Yeah, all the plants I have are really temperamental. They don't, they can't look at sunlight. What do you mean? I didn't know this was a thing. What are they? What are they eating? I assumed all plants could just be put in the sun. Uh-huh. You can't do that with all plants. No, no, I didn't know that. I bought the plants. I liked how it looked. And then I have to permanently have my curtains closed. Um, because it could be live. But I vegan. I'm vegan, vegan plants. Get this buddy, I vegan. No, because like some plants, the, the, the, the direction that's too harsh. So they have to be in like, like, it has like bounce off a wall or something. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And it's be like ambient. Or like I have like the white film. Yeah. Like the white thing in my curtains. For a shriveled fucking. Oh, like the inner curtain. Yeah, so I have to put the inner curtain. Yeah, yeah. It's so ridiculous. I was like, that's crazy. I don't die from eating food. Send them to, they need to be sent to like military school. They need to be like, what are the different indoor plants? There's outdoor plants. Yeah. You can fucking like, fucking, fucking destroy them, rip them to shreds. And I'll be like, hi, indoor plants like, well, the relative humidity wasn't dirty. Well, they are the privileged plants. Yeah, yeah. Let's fucking think. I guess I'll just get an outdoor plant. You can't do that, Jerry. They go indoors. They go indoors, outdoor, sorry. What do you mean? Outdoor plants are outdoor plants. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Get an outdoor plant. I put an outdoor plant and get it inside. That's a deadly combination. That's like putting the Chernobyl reactor in a kidney coffee. I'll do that. The fuck you talking about, Garnet? It'll destroy your house. Why? What's, as a non-planet owner, owner, or never a plan owner? I just don't think you can take an outside plan, put it inside. I just sound like watching you. I don't know. I mean, you probably could. It's like putting cereal before the meal. Like it's crazy. I mean, look, it's not, I mean, yeah. Kidding, I don't do that. I need to be upset. I just, in my head, I couldn't compute which one was the order. So I just picked one. And it was the wrong one. Yeah, the 50-50, you lost. Do you ever do that? What? When you're talking, you don't have time to fully process the thought. You're like, I'm committing. All the time. I'm committing to the word that comes to my mind. I'm like, if I shut this place up, I'm going to be out of here. Because if you stop the sentence halfway through, you look dumb. It's just me on trash days. Yeah. That's all trash days. That's all trash days. That's all trash days. All right. Just take it if you want. That's all right. Just credit. All right. All right. Who is most likely to eat something they instantly regret? Eat something they instantly regret? Um. Okay. I think I got my answer down. Yeah, I think I got my answer down. Get ready. All right. Don't worry audio listeners. We'll just say what we did. Yeah. Okay. Three, two, one. All right. I put yourself. You put you. Joy put me. And I put myself. Why did you say yourself? Uh, I don't know. It's not you. Yeah. Because I fuck with everything. Yeah. Yeah. I never regret what I ate. Yeah. Even if I hated it. I don't know. There's a lot of things I don't like. Yeah. But you got the Southeast Asian stomach. I don't think you can regret it. I don't. And if you do regret it's a mental thing. But him, it's a physical thing. I regret the quantity. Oh. I was too much. And I'm always like, man, I could easily have eaten 30% less. But I always go over. Did you not control that? No, but you know that moment where if I have a meal and it's the right size and I eat it and I wait 30 minutes, I'm like, oh great. I'm full. Yeah. But when you're eating it, you're like, oh. Oh, when it tastes so good. Yeah. I think I find myself overeating and I often, I find myself very often regretting how much I, how often does this happen in your life once a day? It happens a lot. I don't normally find that you regret what you eat. I really want to see. Yeah. It's how much you eat. It's the quantity. I don't know. There's a lot of it. Maybe that's a universal human. That's, that's, that's, that's like if you have a good, bang a meal. Yeah. How can you stop if there is more? It's very easy to stop you. Stop. No, no, no, no. Do you not have, do you not have that limit? But if you've gone to the point where you're sick, you're already like way past full. Yeah. No, but that's what I'm saying. I know when I'm about to start feeling sick, so I stopped before them. Okay. So let's say hypothetically, yeah, all right. You have a bang a meal. Yeah. Right. And there is still food left on the plates after you hit that wall. Yeah. This is just the American experience. Do you leave that food and just let it go to waste? Yeah. Or do you finish the plate? I mean, if the plate, if I have to, if there is no food left on the plate, if there is no option to take it home, then I'm going to finish it. No, it's that awkward amount where it's not worth taking home. Oh my god. Oh, like the last like three or four bites. It's, it's that last few bites. It's like, to me, right, I take home if there's half. If it's over half, I'm finishing the plate. Yeah, right, right. Okay. So there's like a quarter left, which is a size more amount, but it is a quarter. Okay. I do this strat that's worked for me a couple of times where say you're at a restaurant and that happens. Yeah. And you're with a bunch of people, you know, and there might be like, let's say, I don't know, a fifth left on the plate, right? Yeah. That's probably the man you were thinking of, right? Yeah. Or it's like, it's not enough to take home, but it's also waste to... I did just say a quarter, but okay. Let's say a quarter. Okay. I'll see you gone. Here's the thing. I don't listen. Okay. There's a quarter left, right? I'll go to the strat where I'll leave it on the plate for as long as possible. Right. We'll pay the bill and we're about to leave. Right as I'm like standing up to leave, I scoff that shit. So I leave as much time as possible between the last time I fully committed to the meal. You paid the bill and nearly leave. It still has the plate on the table. Oh, a lot of places, especially in Japan. Really? Yeah. Oh, they always take it away. Us, I mean, some of the fancy restaurants maybe. Oh, yeah. I don't go to fancy restaurants. I'm out of myself here. I don't go to a fancy restaurant. Javi doesn't clear the plate for you? No, definitely not. Say a wrap. Say a wrap. Yeah. Like a size area for instance, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like last minute, like we paid the bill and we're about to stand up and leave. I'm just like, all right, I can sneak it in and just quickly scoff at it. Do I regret that? Sometimes, but most of the time there's enough space left between the last time I ate and when I leave. Same a Calories, bro. Yeah, a fuck thing about that. Future Jowing宗io a fellow. I'm not saying about fullness, man. Yeah, that's a future joy to think about. I'll just walk home at that point. Ah, all right. You know? Oh, man, all food now. Yeah, no, I have a sandwich waiting for me. So I'm like, yeah, you did. No, it's right there. I'm gonna eat on the show. Go where I wanna see you. No, no, no, no. I wanna see you for sandwich. No, show me the goods. You have no not pet? No, wait, what? I was just like, if you can take care of, if you can't take care of a plant, do you trust yourself with a pet? Yeah, a pet's easy. I mean, I've taken care of pets. Pets easier than a plant. A pet will come up to you and be like, I'm hungry. A plant doesn't do that. What's your thing about the pet? Yeah. I forget about the plant. Yeah. That's the true difficulty of taking care of a plant. Poor plant. I know. It's cause you have named them. Name your plants. This episode is sponsored by Shopify.

Three, two, one. It's Connor. Yeah, fuck you. It's Connor. It's Connor. Is it a crime to think that my human body is a vessel for my doing? Connor is the most overconfident person in himself. What a hell overconfident. You've got to have overconfident. Yeah, to my extent. I feel like I've got to jump that wall without believing you can jump that wall. Yeah, but sometimes I'm just like, you know what, I know my physical limits and I just don't want to subject myself to the possible. Records were not made. I'm not here to break. What's now? I'm here to break records. Gluttony. I can do another bite. I'm here to live a long and prosperous life. I feel like as Connor's got an order, he's got a lot more. He's a job you pan. Yeah, it's right there. As he's got an order, he's got a lot more sensible. For some reason, whenever I see Connor next to Ludwig, he just reverts back to that 23 year old. Yeah, he does. It's the competitive side of me, but you know, I've suppressed it. I've suppressed it. Okay. I've suppressed it. All right. Okay. I know long to feel the desire, the need or hunger for competition. I see. But it can come out. Okay. Like the two walls inside of me. They're both gay. One is gay, the other is gay. All right, gone. What is your prompt? Cause everything a vibe. Okay. Can we even write this? Gone. It's gone. It's gone. It's gone. Gone has this insistence on everything being a vibe. It is a vibe. I bet you're so fucking happy about this word vibe coding. The five, oh shit. I've got to use that shit. The five, five. Describe vibe coding to me. I'm honestly too familiar. But I know that it's like, Miriam Webster's word of the year. Oh, is it? Yeah, I've got to start using it. I'm coding. It's a new kind of coding called vibe coding where you fully give into the vibes. Like actually coding coding. Why would I know about coding coding? No, but I think it's actually being used out. So can you do urban dictionary? Yeah, urban dictionary. This is like actually coming up with just code. Yeah, this is like, I think this has become, yeah, here we go. Okay, here we go. Vibed coding is a form of, I don't know. Vibed coding, no. It's up, it's up, it's up, it's up. It's up. Was it? Vibed coding is a form of coding where you don't require brain to program a software. What does that mean? It's just for like programmers, I guess. All right. I just go by feeling, I think it's like when there's like a shit application, like a bad Windows update, you're like, they were just vibe coding. Oh, so it's like you just try and figure it out without actually having an idea of how to do it. Yeah, like the code is now, because they either have AI and stuff, they're not actually coding. They're just like doing it from vibes. Oh, I see. I see. I see vibe codes. No, no. At life, yes, but not the code is. I'd be worried if my fucking code was vibe coding. Yeah. I'd be like, please get your shit together. Yeah. Yo, I mean, I mean, I mean, you gotta go with the vibe, man. You gotta go with the vibe a lot of times. I mean, sometimes where you can't just like shrug off everything as just vibes. Have you never had that moment? He tries. Have you never had that moment in your life? He tries fast. What? Have you never had that moment in your life where like you have, you have a, you have this realization that you're like, shit, I gotta take my life off like semi-automatic and go to manual mode. No, what I mean? Like that, that, that, that, Piffety. Okay, okay, hello. Semi-automatic. Is it in the gun? Yeah. To manual the car. Like, are you saying like, are you saying like, you're saying like, oh, I have to go from autopilot to manual pilot? Is that what you mean? Yes, yes, yes. Yeah, not semi-automatic. I believe that was the type of gun. I have to go from, Broom. Broom. Broom. Broom. Ah, no, no, I, I, I, I, I don't really means. I've done this. Yeah, I've had moments where I've been like, nah, fuck this. I'ma do it. Yeah. Is that not just locking in? No, no, no, that's not the same. A little bit different. A little bit different. Because you, you live most of your life and you're just like, I can't, I don't know what the word is. It's not exactly automatic, but it's like semi-automatic. I just like use the word. Let me give you an example of this. Sometimes when you walk home from a quite a long walk, yes, you find yourself, you are not actually paying attention to where you're walking, but you've been auto-pilotting where you're going. Right, right. That's, and then sometimes you kind of come out of it and you're like, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I would do that for maybe other things in life, where you, yeah, like, I think it's just become a habit. Yeah, oh, yeah, I mean, yeah. So yeah, but then sometimes you're like, I got to lock in right now. Yeah. You got to take control. I got to lock it on the side. I'm not locking right now in this shit. I mean, yeah, but I've never heard of this. I can just grab the semi-automatic. Well, that's just, that's just, that's just auto-pilotting. I was just vibe coding. Oh, yeah. What the fuck? All right. Who's most likely to cry because someone else cried? Ooh, that's a good one. Ooh, I'm thinking about this now. Um. Oh, this is tough, actually. I got my answer. Yeah. I'll say, I'll say this. Connor's thinking about it. Hmm, he is. I'm just saying it like that. He is. All right. Three, two, one. I said, gone. I said, me. I said, Joey. Oh, really? Why'd you say me? I could say, why are you going Joey? I could say, Joey get a little bit emotional. So when I'll surround him gets emotional. I mean, I do get like that. I mean, you know, when, for example, at the bond premiere, when Gump was, you know, when he got that first of polls, the standing ovation after the thing, like, and I saw Gump tearing up, like, yeah, I'd see it up a bit. It's all, but I feel like that's, I feel like all three of us are emotionally capable. I think we're emotionally healthy boys. You understand the value of a good cry. Yeah. I think also Gump is where I could have put, that's gonna put me. Yeah, you've got to, you've got to, I can't say it's interesting. You put me because I was debating between you two. I think I recognize a homie. I appreciate that. Thank you. Oh, you'll be surprised. I see you. I see you. You're seen. Don't worry. I know you've tried my cry. I appreciate that. I appreciate that. Thank you. I don't know. I just, I was like, yeah, I just think Joey would. I don't know. Yeah, it's hard because I think, I like to think role emotionally. I sure enough to, you know, be able to, you know, cry when another person cries, but yeah. Yeah, man, I like one of my very, well, I'm not that, whenever someone else cries specifically, to, you know, everyone's stage, I have to say something like soppy. I'm like, the, something in my brain, someone presses the cry button. Yeah. Like I have no want to cry. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. For me, it's always like, if I see someone else crying, then that's the dream for me to be like, you are so cry now. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, man, that was, that was a good cry. Do you ever do, um, do you ever do like the, uh, I know this is gonna be weird. Do you ever do that thing where you like cry for like 20 seconds, you're like, I'm done. Yeah. Yeah. Like, like, like, sad happens, like, not even sad happens, but sometimes you just existing, they're like, you know, like, you need to, you do the parasite locking, like, you've even done that. You've even, sometimes, yeah, like with the right song. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Like, you like, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's like the, like, the emotional cup spills over. You just get like a really intense moment of emotion. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I get that with a lot of like music. Yeah. Yeah. Where it's like, especially the ones where it's like, I maybe listen to it a number of times and there's like a certain point in the song where it's like, this was the moment that you know it's coming up and then, yeah, dude. Oh. And then you start to preemptively cry, but it's not like a, a sob. You know what I mean? And then there's that one moment we just like, now cry now. Yeah. I've had that many times. Yeah. I think, I think that's healthy. Yeah. That is healthy. Yeah. I think I discovered crying when I watched Anaheim. Fuck you talking about that. Fuck you. I mean, I'm, I'm, I'm, the fuck do you mean you discovered crying? I genuinely, I want to say that like crying. Like you were the first person who did it. Yeah. Crying was discovered. I just got, it was the first person who started to do it. We didn't know it. We, we, we saw God do it. We were, we were at out of disbelief. Is that me? Like crying was discovered in 2011, people in 2010. That's how I genuinely felt. I don't like what the fuck do you mean when you discovered crying? Cause like, what the hell are you talking about? Generally, like, I cannot remember a point in my life outside of like being like a kid. You know, everyone cries when they're a kid for stupid fucking reasons, because we're dumbass kids. And I was out of that. I genuinely don't remember a point where I ever cried. And I had a, had a long period of my life where I thought genuinely thought I could not cry. Or I was just like emotionally. I was like, ah, maybe, maybe crying is not just just not me. Bro, I remember the first time watching Anna Hannah. That was, that was when I discovered I could cry and holy shit. That was like the cry of my life, man. I think everyone goes to that stage of the teenager with a like, I feel no emotions. Yeah. And then you very quickly realized, no, you just didn't know how to express them. Yeah. Yeah. Have you ever had those like, have you ever had those delayed cries where at the time that something emotional is happening, you've become so emotionally overwhelmed that you can't even bring yourself to start crying. And then it's not until after the fact that you look back on it that immediately your brain is just like, that's brief. I think it looks like it's very delayed. You hear the news. You're like, what? Does it hit you what that means or like, are you feel about it? Yeah. That's right. I remember the first time I had that in my life, I was like, I, it was going to be mega depressing. So I wanted to go on too much. But like, no, no, no, no, no, no. When I had a friend in high school who passed away, when I was I think 19, and he died of a liver failure. He says. Yeah. And yeah, and yeah, he was, he was younger than me. So he was 18. Yeah. And yeah, I remember like, when I heard about it, and I went to go see him in the hospital room, and this was like hours before he passed away. Um, I remember then and at his funeral, I didn't cry a single time. Yeah. And I thought I was fucked up. Yeah. Yeah. And that whole thing, I was like, there were people around me crying at this funeral, and I'm just like, why, I was, I was like, what the fuck, Joe, why are you okay? Like, are you dead inside? Like, why are you not reacting in this way? And then I remember I got home from that funeral, and I went into my room, and then just, there was, there wasn't even like a trigger. It was just immediately. I just balled out. Yeah. Maybe you're like bodies like defense is like, you can't cry. Yeah. And then that's something that kind of told that you should do. Yeah. You know, you're not seeing your dad who doesn't want to cry. Yeah. Yeah. You know, I think this is like a learned behavior. That was the first time, like, I almost like shocked myself when I did that, because that was like, such a fucking weird feeling. I was like, well, what the fuck? Why am I suddenly crying so much? Like, why wasn't I doing this earlier? And then, yeah, that's when I learned, like, that was kind of like my body's defense. Yeah, yeah. Against that. I think that was very powerful. Yeah. I think that's normal for a lot of guys, mostly, when you don't, you don't feel the emotions that you just numb. It's almost like numbness. Yeah. You know what I mean? Yeah. It really was weird, because I was like, in my head, I was like, I should be crying right now, but I can't bring myself to do it at this moment. Yeah. I mean, you're young, you know? You're 19 and like, at that time, it's like, you definitely have those feelings. You just don't know what they feel like. You don't know how to process them. You don't know what it means. And like, it's impossible to like break that down. Yeah. And like, actually, mentalize and go through it and be like, this is what I'm feeling. This is why I'm feeling it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You know, and how do I move forward? How do I keep going? Yeah. Anyway, sorry. That was depressing. That was, you know what that was? Joe, that was real. That was real, which is what we are. Yeah. Yeah. I think like it's touch. I think that's why trash tastes the thing. We have you know, fart jokes and then he was like real. Yeah. You get everything on trash days. All right. All right. I have the next problem. I thought that was my prompt. Oh, was that your prompt? I guess. Yeah. We can go from another one. No, no, that was my prompt. Oh, really? I guess. Randomly disappears and comes back with snacks. Does anyone of us have that before? OK. OK. Actually, I'll change my answer. No, actually, I'll do this. Here we go. OK. All right. Let's just say our choice on three, two, one, Joey. Oh, we're all different. Oh, OK. Wait. Now that I think about it, it is you. Yeah, it's gone. Why is it me? I thought I wrote Connor first and then I was like, yeah. Why is it me? I just looks at a fat ass. But then I realize, wait, gone randomly will always have like little chocolate snack. Yeah. After every trash day is recording, when we go back upstairs, we'll have a fun to let us know. I'm like in the toilet and I come out and gone snacking on something. You know who's the king of snacking now? Chris. Oh, dude. If you look away, he'll spawn a snack. You're like, how did you do that, Chris? I mean, he was here earlier today. He was snacking his hand. I was like, what's going on? I was snacking. Yeah. Yeah. It is gone. It is gone. It's gone, right? It's Joey. Yeah, why me? Fucking, I very rarely snack. What a fucking loser. Fucking no. I'm America, the American tournet. OK, well, that's America. Oh, you're snacking so much. I was snacking so much on America. I was so much. I was so much. Constantly Joey on our tour bus. Why? Why were you always snacking? I mean, the American snacks are kind of going up. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They're great. Also, the bus always had snacks. Yeah. They just kept scoring every time I hung out with you. I'm just like, down, Joey's constantly snacking. Yeah. I was. That's why I gained so much weight on that tour. Because this is constantly eating. I just caught a skateboard. If I lived in America, I'd be fucking 400 pounds, dude. I can already tell. It's impossible. I get it. I get why so many Americans are overweight. Yeah, but I think as a consistent snack at God, you are. Yeah, I think God is the consistent snack at God. Consistent snack at God. Yeah. It's wait, I don't snack at home that often. Do you think God's... I've only seen the trash taste. Only in trash taste studio. Do you guys have snacks in your house? No. Kind of snacks in my house. A little bit. No. Well, not too much. Well, I never try to overstock on snacks because that's when I overeat the snacks. So I always maybe have like one packet of something so that I can restrain myself. But like, if I get like a, I don't know, if I get like baby bells. Fucking love baby bells. Baby bells, great. I will crush the bag of baby bells. That's why I don't buy baby bells. But most snacks that you buy, like unless you're going to the convenience store and giving like one bag or whatever, like if you're buying like a snack and like normally come and bulk right, it's kind of a lot of a commitment to a snack. And I'm like, I don't want to, I don't want to eat this once a day. I don't want to commit to that. I'd rather just like have something that maybe once a month, I can snack on. And then I'll just go to snack at home. And what kind are we talking? And we're talking like chips. Gummies cookies. What are we talking? I don't have snacks in my house. So if I could magically have a snack that was permanently there, I should like an oatmeal cookie. What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What's up with that? I just wasn't. It just wasn't the answer. Oh, I'm sorry. Was it boring? No. Not even that. It's just unique. Yeah. Oh, oh, oh. You've never mentioned. I was expecting like, so I have to mention every snack. I like on that. No, I was expecting like, yeah, yeah, you like we've been friends for how long? I've never mentioned every snack. For how long. And this is the first time you've mentioned oatmeal cookie, oatmeal cookies. It's hard to get them here. Yeah, I was going to say. Nobody fucking makes oatmeal cookies. There's like one coffee shop. I like the most. And writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing writing Yeah, I mean, you kind of learn what you like, right? I'm not so much in the experimenting phase anymore. I've found the like 20 or so snacks I like. Yeah, I just rotate them depending on the mood. Yeah, I'm more of a dinner guy. Yeah, I need a good dinner. Yeah, dinner is my favorite meal of the day. Yeah, I'll have coffee, coffee, coffee, maybe hopefully a light lunch. I have big boy dinner. Fucking big dinner. I was a boy diet. I love a big dinner. Yeah. Big dinner is great. I will give up lunch, have a good dinner. Do you get hungry at breakfast? No, never. I had the exact same conversation with my sister recently. She is a breakfast fucking fiend. I think it's a habit. I think if you... I think so too. You build up the breakfast habit. You get used to it. If you build up the habit of not having breakfast, you get very used to it. Yeah, but she also wakes up at like 5 a.m. to go to the gym. I just don't think she's a human. You know what? I maybe I'll vibe with that because... When I... When my steep schedule was most healthy, I kind of crave breakfast, but I'm like... Yeah. No, yeah, yeah. I kind of like actually now, mental thing. If I'm gymming breakfast early, yeah, I will. Can you gym in the morning? Only gym in the morning. I cannot gym in the morning, dude. Why? I have to do it in the afternoon already. Oh, that's... Yeah. Brother is... I mean, gym is a end of day activity. What? Oh. Why, like I guess... I hate gymming. Oh. I'm just not mentally awake in the morning to do gym. That's why you do gym to wake you up. Yeah, to wake you up. You get that... You get that buzz. But I was fucking... I hate the feeling of doing something, especially physical when you're not mentally awake. Going... Okay, going to the gym in the evening to me makes me feel like... Like, I just had this long ass day. I feel gross. I'm like, I'll go and do exercise. Yeah. When I do the gym in the morning, I feel like... I... When I imagine Patrick Bateman feels like the rest of the day. I feel electric. I feel like I am the clinical of man. See, because I'm one of those people where... Are you one of those people that get... Not so much buzz, though, would say, but energized after you finish a gym session. Yeah. Okay, I'm the opposite. I get so fucking pooped at the end of my gym session that I don't want to do anything after it. Like, so that's why I opt to do it in the evening. So, like, I take... I do all of the work in the morning and, you know, do whatever I need to do during the day. And I take up all of, like, you know, any potential, like, you know, mental stresses or maybe, like, physical, like, you know, like, I'm a little bit, you know, that was a good fucking successful day. And then I finish it off by pushing myself physically to the limit. And that's like a way to, like, sweat out all of the work I've done in the day. And then... Crashing out after a gym session? The best. I don't mind doing an evening session if I'm going incredibly hard, like doing, like, a full, like, weightlifting, then, like, an hour run. Yeah. Maybe it's the cross-feet thing, I don't know. Yeah, maybe. Yeah. And the mornings don't mean just to muscle. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't know if I do cardio. If it's only like that, I could do it in the morning. But, like, if it's like a muscle plus cardio thing, cardio just makes me feel gross. Yeah, then it's like, I don't want to do that to start the day. I'm already tired. And it's like 8 a.m., you know? Yeah. Yeah. Peace and sunshine with the gap. Another morning. Another reminder there's a gap to be careful of. But maybe it's time to bridge the one between your nine to five and your dream of living life on your own terms.

Anyway, off topic. Next one. It was me, right? Yes. It's me, gamers. All right. We're also running out of prompts, really more. Starts planning a trip they will never take. I'll say to be honest with this one, I don't think any of us do this. I think we're all very good at it. Yeah. I think when we plan something, it happens. Yeah. That's none of us. We don't fucking do. But I also think I will say this is very much like obviously a prompt. They've pretty scot enough lying, because this is like a very, you know, when you have a lot of common thing. Yeah, because like you, you know, most people, they've take time off work. They have to plan these things. And obviously it's quite a big commitment, whereas we're very lucky. We don't have to do that. We can just, I can go on a plane to Malaysia tomorrow if I want to come back on the day after. I don't have to, you know, whatever. Yeah, you can't cancel plans if you don't have them. Boss. I'll, we read this one then. He tries to do math out loud. No, shit. Sorry, that one was so shit. It was like, that was like a board game on it's like, price to smile the hard. Shut the fuck up. I'm gonna ask my friends that. I don't know. Can we say that that makes Joey potentially hate me. Brags about knowing the best hidden spots. Ooh. Ooh. Ooh. Brags about knowing the best hidden spots. You just wrote fucking among us. I saw. You just wrote fucking among us. I saw. Brags about knowing the best hidden spots. You thought you could do that suddenly? I know, I know who that is in our friend group. Who? They? Yes. In our friend group? Yes. Would you, can we say a public? Can we say a public? No. Yes. Oh. Who? Oh. Oh, yeah. It's a non-Mail-Lay. Yeah, it's gonna say, just be honest, really. Oh. Yeah. Sure. Sure. Yes, funny. We're in Swamp. Mail-Lay would recommend a food place because Mail-Lay is a big foodie. Yeah. Mail-Lay would recommend a food place and if they didn't like it, I would tell Mail-Lay that I didn't like it. Mail-Lay in a glow. Well, they have a peasant palate or something like that. Mail-Lay would be like offended. Yeah. Maybe like, well, it wasn't there for that your palate wasn't fine. Yeah. Yeah. Maybe like, your palate isn't refined. Oh, my God. All right. Uh, out of the three of us though. Out of the three of us. Most likely. I don't know. Okay. Maybe I'll do this. I'll do this. Okay. All right. Three, two, one. Oh, we'll see different people. People. So I said gone. I said, gone on. And I said, go on. I said, go on. And I said, go on. Okay. Now we need to break this down. Let's go on here, gentlemen. All right. All right. Here's a, here's corner with, uh, with, with the new, with the new friend group. All right. They, um, they're like, yo, do you know any places? I'm in a place. And it's like, oh, I know a place. Takes into the fucking Italian place. It's like, do you need anything else? Do you need anything else? Do you need anything else? A lot of people that I've randomly talked to. And I'm like, yo, Connor took me to the Italian place. I'm like, yo, motherfucker. Has there, is there anyone in Japan? He is not taken to this one fucking Italian. At this point, it's not hidden anymore. It's, it is like the, you know, to the cold people who are it is. I'm black because I'm there like every fucking week. Oh, really? That's good. Yeah. We just call it the, I live that. I don't want to, we call it the Italian place, but literally everyone in the content creator field, I'm like, everyone, everyone who is like come to Japan and how would Connor? They will have one like similar story that everyone says. And it's the fucking Italian place. And they praise it. I mean, yes, great. We went there once and it was fucking awesome. We've been there once. We've been there once. I've been there once. We just once. Yeah. No, I've been at a mall for two and a half. Yeah. Guys are gone. Cause gone. And as an extension of Sydney, Sydney will always be like me and got no place. It's the greatest place ever. Let us take you there. Right. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Okay. And what did you say, self-jerry? I said maybe because I don't know. Like I, I love showing people like, you know, cause I've got so many friends who visited Japan. They're like, Oh, where's like some places cool that we can go? Should we go to like Shinjuku or should we go and stuff like that? I'm like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, fuck all of that. Like go to these locations outside of the major cities because like great and all that kind of stuff. Because like I just want people to have like a unique experience. But when people ask me to hang out, I'm lazy as fuck. I make them come to me. But I also, in my defense, I live in an area that is convenient. Yeah. So it's easy for me to do that. Yeah. But also I know the area super well. Yeah. Yeah. So I like, if one thing falls through, I'm like, don't worry, I know like 20 other places. Yeah. I can't do that because I'm a fucking far away. Yeah. Yeah. That's true. All right. So boys, when you have a friend come over, right? Yeah. They ask for recommendations. Yeah. What's your worst? God just the naliest burks. That's the most breathy burks. What's the tier list? The tier list. I know for you up at the top, it's like Italian places. I'm taking you. No, so, so okay. Here's the thing there, right? When people want to come over to Japan, right? They want to go somewhere Japanese. And he really depends. Like that. I will never take them there first time. They also haven't earned it. You know, they're not real ones. Yeah. I'm kidding. I'm fucking with you. No. I'm gonna go sushi. They want to go. Yeah, they also in Japanese. So I've got like a bunch of places I always recommend for that. Yeah. And depending on the price point and the experience that they want. So normally first time I have dinner with someone or I send them recommendations, they'll always be that kind of stuff. And then maybe if once they've come to Japan a couple of times, I'm like, okay, you're ready. You're ready for the spa. The spa. But that's like why I've now realized from living in Japan that as someone who lives in a place, I will just ask other people whenever I go anywhere. I'm like, I don't care. What type of food is take me to your favorite restaurant. The one that you would go to every like if you had a special occasion, like I don't want to go to this steakhouse you think that I want because I can't, I can't say, you know what I mean? Yeah. I think it's just such a, I feel like a better experience overall. So I try to take that's why I take it. Yeah. I think for me, I mean, the real, the real like actual places that I really dig that are a little lesser known. I'm not going to say on camera because, you know, I built those location lists, brick by brick. I'm not going to, I'm going to gatekeep a little bit because I took time to create that list. I think the difference between gatekeeping is like if you are filming yourself in the restaurant, go and look how good this food is. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You're like, it's so great. I don't tell you. Yeah, that's like fucked up. The places, the places that are at the top of my list are the places I've never filmed before. And that's just like for me and my personal friends, like place. But yeah, but if it's like, I feel like if it's a place where you go a lot as a person in the space, like I think it's fair for you. Like maybe I'm biased because I also feel the same way because I would like to have places that I feel like at least I'm not, you know, a bit more private. I would say to people who, like my personal friends who are like maybe visiting Japan for the first time or maybe like, you know, fans who stop me on the street and they ask me, like, you know, oh, where's the place that you recommend? That's a little more low key than say like, should we go shingy or whatever. Yeah. I would always say in a shima. Okay. Because that place I feel is severely, I mean, there's a fuck lot of tourists there nowadays. Don't get me wrong. But that's kind of everywhere in Japan. But like I still feel that place is so unique in terms of like the Japanese experience that you can get. And also it's really not that far from Tokyo. Like you can easily do a day trip there and it's that entire surrounding area is gorgeous. So I always say in a shima. My recommendation people is always just run a car and just go drive. Yeah. Japan is such a cool place to drive. Or literally just get off at any train station and just walk around. Yeah. But you could be in the bomb fuck middle of nowhere. There's probably something called that you'll find there. You ever fucked up on a recommendation? What do you mean by fucked up? Oh, they didn't like it. Yeah. Yeah, I've had that. Yeah, yeah, of course. I think the worst thing that happened to me was there's one time where what named it was a Vtuber. I wouldn't say who it is. But it was like one of the first times in Japan. It's, you know, we wanted a place to hang out and just catch up. And so I'm like, oh, have you had, do you want Japanese food? And they said, yes. And I was like, okay, cool. When someone says Japanese food, yakiniku, always a banger. Because it's just, it's just, yakiniku never goes wrong. Trump like don't want so visual. So visual. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And get to like taste it and talk to them as well. And you know, this was quite early on in my content career. So I hadn't hang out with like a lot of like Americans taken to a place. Turns out the vegan. Okay, they should have mentioned that. They did not mention that. That is a crazy thing to not mention when they're booking a spot. That should be the first thing they mentioned when they ask restaurant recommendations, please. Or food recommendations. By the way, I'm vegans. I think it was like, why not say it? I'm, did they just assume that you prefer they, they, they, you know, it was, it was a funny thing because I didn't find out until we're like, we both sat down. And like, oh, I'm so sorry. And I'm like, no, no, no, they're very cool about it. But I just thought like, why would you not tell me? Yeah, that's a crazy thing to not say. Yeah. But now that I think about it, I've had a couple of meals where I've taken people out. And it's been a very close thing of like, oh, yeah, they, they, they, you were like, I'm vegetarian. I'm like, well, I just don't mention that. I'm glad a place where I leftly, there was options. But I was like, you know, I feel like you could have told me. I mean, I could have picked a little bit better here. Yeah, I remember I took a dude from Europe, a friend of mine from Europe who, I took him to the Chinatown, downtown South. And I went into a Chinese restaurant. We started ordering food and he was like, by the way, I have a peanut allergy. And I'm like, can you fucking tell me? Brother, where is China right now? I'm like, hold me a peanut. By the way, I don't know if this is the first time you eating Chinese food. What a peanut. You know, so I was really gonna rub you with peanuts and five minutes. I wish you fucking told me that. That's crazy. Yeah, no. And of course, he didn't eat anything because fuck, this peanut oil everywhere in this salvage room. Oh, dang it. The worst is when I, one or two times I have people who wanted to like hang out and I didn't really know them very well. And they all came out. And there was like three of them that all had like three different restrictions. And I was like, we're just fucked. Like there was a chance if you had told me beforehand. But it's like this person's got celiac disease. This person's vegan. This person just doesn't want to eat fish or meat. Not vegetarian. It doesn't want it. And I was like, dude, celiac is the hardest thing in Japan. I swear. Yeah. Because it's like, you can't have gluten. Is that right? The gluten, I think I think. I think it's gluten. But like everything has gluten in Japan. Yeah. Like soy sauce. It's just not, yeah, celiac disease is not really a thing. Yeah, you're so hard to explain that. And it's like every single thing in Japan. It's like walking into a dungeon, but all your party members are debuffed. Right. I'm like, oh, fuck. We're not gonna last in this. But you know what? I make it fucking work, bro. I make it work. I go to national. You made it work. I chef it out. I get it. I'll fucking I'll talk to myself. I'll cook it up. No, I mean, normally it's like, if that happens, it's like, okay, let's just hope there's something we got here. Yeah. We got some rice crackers. Yeah, yeah. I don't know. I don't know. It's, yeah, yeah. It's like friends watching this. Don't get me wrong. We want to show you food establishments in Japan when you come and visit us in Japan. Just give us dietary restrictions ahead of time. So that give us a little bit of, you know, we don't care you're dietary restrictions. Just tell us ahead of time. Yeah. I mean, Japan is pretty good at accommodating them in general. I've got a lot better. Yeah, yeah, used to be pretty bad. But allergies, especially that really good at now. The lot of places will ask you, do you have any allergies? That's good. Although just have it on the menu, right? They'll say like, oh, this has got prawns in it. This has got, you know, whatever. You can also, I know online, if you come to Japan, there are a bunch of like little cards you can get. You download them and print them off or something where it's like, or on your phone. There's like a little allergy information in Japanese. Oh, really? Yeah. And I'll have like a little cartoon symbol of the thing. Oh, that's cute. And then you can just show it. I've a friend did it. Oh, really? Because they're a very allergic to, it wasn't something unusual. It was something a bit odd. I hadn't seen them often. And they were like, oh, yeah, okay, cool. Yeah, we can help them out. What's the weirdest food allergy you've seen in a person? Well, when I say weird, I mean, like, unusual food allergy you've seen in a person. You know, when I prefer to mind as allergic to apples. Yeah. Well, you know, which is, I think a bit unusual. I don't know if they want to be named, because I won't name them. But is that one person who we know who is allergic to like all vegetables? What? Yeah. We know them? Yeah, we know them. Yeah. Do you know who I'm talking about? Kai. Yeah, yeah. And I was like, what do you mean you're allergic to all vegetables? Yeah. Not that they don't like vegetables. I think I'm less allergic. Right? Yeah. But in my hair, what I hear is that thing? I don't know if there's a thing, but you know what? Well, shit, I don't know this person. You do know this person. Oh, I don't know. Can you write it and then, yeah, I'll write it? Yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, I remember they told me, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't think they can't eat uncooked vegetables. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I remember that. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You don't, okay. Yeah, I wish I had that excuse. When I first heard that, I was like, when I, when he first told me I was like, bullshit, I'm fucking believe you. No, they're allergic to it. But then they said they were like, they would get very sick. Yeah, they're allergic to like, it's like they're allergic to a, like a certain genus of vegetables or something. Like it's not all vegetables, but it's like a, a large majority of their onions and some other things. Yeah, yeah. It's very unusual. Yeah, give me that. Give me that. So what's it called? It's a gold broccoli. No, mother. I am allergic to vegetables. Yeah. Do you want to kill your child? But I'm sure like as somebody who probably has allergies, it's probably very frustrating people don't believe you because it must be tiring when people like, you're like, I never heard of that. It must be fake. Yeah. Because like, I will, you know, when you hear something really crazy, you're like, what? Yeah. Like, is it possible? You're like, I've never heard of that in my life. But at the same time, what the, how the fuck? Yeah, yeah, yeah. When my friend was like, I'm allergic to apples and I'm like, I don't even want to end it very differently if fucking Adam was allergic to apples. You know, we're in a very different story. Yeah, no evil. Sorry. I'm packed it up. Well, we were good. Crazy. Yeah. No, it was really interesting. All right. Let's do it. Let's prompt them. No, go. Do you guys believe in the, was it the coriander gene? Would you believe it's so? Yeah, I have it. You have it? Yeah. Coriander tastes like soap. Okay, God. It's just a top. Okay. No, this is just you being gone now. You've had one beer and now you want to, you want to claim science is wrong. I think it is a big conspiracy. Oh, okay. Against what? Why would, who is against big coriander? Yeah. What is, what is, what is it going to be? I'm just saying, I'm just saying this, there's something fishy going on here. Why, why, why, why, why out of every fucking herb out there is there only one gene specific gene in humans for coriander? I don't know because it tastes like ass. It tastes great. I don't like it. It tastes like soap. Run, boy. All right. Run it, boy. What are you, my dad? Run it, boy. Who's most likely to laugh so hard that they choke on their drink? You know what? I think I've actually seen them do this before. Okay. Three, two, one. Oh, we also do. Oh, God. I once had himself. I said Joey and I said corner. I can just see. I've seen you do this on the show. Okay. I can easily envision you like fucking taking a sip due to ripping a massive fart and busting out like choking. He's laughing at the floor. Just the thought of that. Just the thought of that. I could just imagine you simply drinking and then you fucking stop bursting out. I want to laugh at my own fart. You would. I mean, I would. Yes. Why me? Why me? You would on the show. I don't know. I don't know. Trash Taste viewers might notice this. When Connor laughs on the show, there are very few times where Connor hears something and I've never heard someone laugh of this hard in their life. It's like it's like it's like this man discovered what a joke is. You know what I mean? It's like you just fucking. I can. I can. I remember I made a joke on. I think it was one of the Patreon episodes where we were playing Hell Divers. I know the joke. And I still can't believe you said that. And I made a joke that I don't know if I should see a joke. I don't know. No joke. Joey, why don't you say it? Joey, why don't you say the joke you said? Yeah, okay. If you've seen that again, if you're a Patreon, by the way, Patreon.com's last Trash Taste, you can go and watch us playing Hell Divers too. Why do I vividly remind you? This joke is live rent free in my mind. There is a, I just can't. It was like an insane thing to say. If you played Hell Divers too, you know that there's a particular map where it's like a bunch of like Android robots that you have to like fight up against or whatever. And it's a really fucking hard map. This is the first time gone and I'm playing this game. So Connor is obviously carrying us. I'm dying every like five seconds. Like I can't even, I can't even get a shot in. And Connor was like, yeah, I just, I just wanted to give you the like, what did you say? Like I just want to give you like the true Vietnam experience or something like that. I don't know why. Now something like that. Oh yeah, that's right. Because I think like in the Hell Divers community, that particular map was like Vietnam. So yeah, it was like Vietnam, right? So you were like, yeah, I just want to give you the true Vietnam experience. And then I just said without thinking I'm like, yeah, this is Vietnam if I was like a six year old Vietnamese girl. So you're a real big joke. Because I'm dying every like five seconds. Can we pull up the comments on that episode? Yeah. I swear I remember reading the comments or like Jesus Joe. Because I was so frustrated that I was dying every five seconds. And I'm like, what is it? Do it with me by the way. And I just remember hearing you, I've never heard you laugh this hard in my fucking life. I've known you for a really long time. I've never heard Connor laugh this hard in my life. Uh, there's a comment about it. Yeah, there it is. I'm like a very sexual girl. I can't do nothing. And Connor laughing just I can hear the audio, but I just I've never heard you laugh that hard in my life. And Connor every now and then we'll burst out this laugh. Where I'm just like, you were laughing for a solid like five minutes. Was it in the video? I think it's in the video. Okay. Okay. They're going to go watch it. Yeah. Of course someone is just explaining the joke. That's never good. I don't get that's good Japanese name. I'd be Japanese guy. It's listening to the right to hit hitting cool. Oh, did not lab be did you get more beer? He's still here. You got this one, Garb? Huh? Enjoy the hapo shit. I'm going to drink that gin and tonic there. This was this shit. It's fake beer tap or should I push you? I'll push it. This episode is brought to you by Simply Safe. And this Simply Safe on is the sound of peace of mind.

We got, we got some, we got, we got some proper beers here. Give me that. You know which company makes you have a suit? No, desh, which beer company do you think makes it? Asahi. What? Samora. I had one of two options. No, there's like four. I think you sound Tory. That's true. Sound Tory. You're carrying. Oh, it is sapodal. What was I? Do you know what the difference is between this and the Sahi? No. So apparently the difference between this Sahi is that this is a, uh, it is brewed the German way of making beer with no and like 100% following of the German, the German law of the 1565, uh, 1516. I think it is. You know, yeah, I'm more interested in what this is. We don't want to know about it because I'm scared. I'm scared. I drink too much of this. You know, you know the best one is what I try to do the other day. It's pretty fire. The Kirin Green label, the Kirin Green label tastes better than normal Kirin. Oh, I've had that. Yeah. And it's like, it's like seven calories and it tastes so much better than this. This tastes pretty fire. I'm telling you. I had that a cold up, hold up. He's writing his this fire. This is how I, this is how I feel when I drink this man. I drink too much of it. I drink, I drink this every day. Every time I watch your stream, you're drinking more. I am because I always stream. Wait, do you have these? No. I have like four crates in my mind. I don't like non alcohol. This is pretty good. Really? If you tried it, what you never tried it, I don't want non alcohol to be here. It defeats the purpose of it. It's so based. I want to get fucking drunk. You see those articles where I was like, I'm drinking seven percent. I was showing you that. You see those articles where it's like, if you don't drink you're a pussy. There's like an article that was like, people who drink less, get less opportunities or something. What? Yeah. Can you type this into Google and people? Less opportunities in what? Like life. Really? Yeah, or Gen Z could never. Well, I think that was like where it came from because like, I think, I can smell this gin and tonic, dude. God damn. I don't know. I think I made it the fuck up. Yeah, I think so. There's like 20 screenshots. It wasn't even like real. I guess that sounds like a. I'm just saying and out loud in the hopes that it becomes. Oh, I know so that I can keep drinking for 30 more years. It's because it's like Gen Z and like new gen is like the generation of drink, like the least out of like. Yeah. Yeah. I think like personally, I made a lot of lifelong friends. And maybe I wouldn't know if there wasn't a beer involved. Yeah, totally. Yeah. Totally. Totally. Yeah. It's a very social thing, especially if you do it with other people. But more people are getting high now, you know? Yeah, it's a behind the high. It's a waste for getting. Obviously not in Japan. Obviously not in Japan. Obviously not in Japan. Yes. But. Yeah beer is good. Yeah beer is great. But you know, we we doesn't make you social. I feel like a lot of the. Yeah. I think I think I think I've seen this boy. I think most people. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Totally. Like people just do it for like relaxation. Anyway, what was the question? Oh, yeah. I made a I made a sorry for anyone who I offended with that held over to you joke. But you got. Yeah, I got to bid you offend the six year old. Yeah. You got a mirror. It was funny. I don't know about that. I don't know man. You lost pretty fucking hard. It was funny. Yes. Would you say it? Oh God. All right. Next prompt. Call someone mid before even trying it. Joey. Joey. Joey. Yeah. It's me. That is literally Joey's personal. It really is. And you know what I will stand in toes every time it's mid until it convinces me otherwise. Yes. What's the last mid thing you watch, Joey? Everything. The last mid thing I watched. Last thing you comfortably call mid. Oh, that's a great question, actually. I don't know. I've actually the past couple of like movies or like manga or anime that I've consumed have been all pretty good. Yeah. Yeah. I think I'm getting a lot better, especially with things like anime manga. I think I'm getting a lot better at discerning. Whether it's just not going to be in my wheelhouse before I've even consumed it. So I just don't bother consuming it. Yeah. And I've definitely, because you know, there's so much fucking coming out now that it's like, I don't have time to watch all this. So like now I've very, very pick and choose like, okay, I definitely know I'm going to like this. So I'm going to spend my time on it. I don't know. What was the last mid thing you watched? Bro, let me think. Yeah. What was the last mid thing you guys watched? Well, watch the red or whatever. Played. Watch this anime called my something level 9999 Gacha back in a back. Sound dungeon. I'm out for revenge. Yeah, that's what's the name. That sounds me. It is for what's the name search 9999 Gacha backwater dungeon. You know, that's you know, I thought was made holy shit. That's my god level 9999. And then Gacha backstabbed in the backwater dungeon. I'm out for revenge. Oh, is this the one I made the short on? I think so. This is such a thing. Yeah, I think this one I made the short on. Yeah. I'm convinced like this wasn't even a thing before. They just make it up. Yeah, totally. I think light novel authors now are just like in a perpetual race to see who can make the most fucking cursed title for their shows. You know, I thought was meant that I played it and I was like, I see you're pretty fire. Well, five minutes of Freddy's. Are you serious? I played it recently. It was his feet. I had a good time playing it. Why did you watch the play? I don't know. I asked mouse. I was like, well, game should I play mouse? I used to play food for half an hour. If you haven't, I was like, I don't think I ever finished for that. And I played it. Right. I did like for 10 minutes. I was like, this is shit. And then you finished it and it's pretty good. I finished or I finished five of them and one and one stream. Oh shit. And I fucking loved it. It's great. He's turning into Mark blow. Yeah, he is. There you go. Just Markiplier. Markiplier is the meat canyon. Markiplier. Markiplier. Oh, yeah. I'm audio only listener. Mark. Please pull up a new prompt. Yeah, just fucking pull out some random prompts. We just didn't get it. All right. Things every stray cat is their new best friends. Oh. Things every stray cat is their new best friend. I feel like yeah. Okay. Okay. I got ready. Three, two, one. Oh, I said me. I said Joey. I was on the fence of you and me, but I love. Yeah. I was having a stray cats as well. And I just can't touch them because I'm allergic. Oh, shit. So what a fuck did I put Joey? I love animals. So gone and Joey put Jerry. I put Connor. Yeah, I don't know. I just I'm I thought about putting Jerry. Yeah, I know Joey loves animals a lot. And it's maybe it's the Australian and him. I think so. What he thinks he can tell me. Do you know a reason I put Joey? Because he just has like stray cat energy. He does have straight. What the fuck is that mean? I do. I do. You know what I mean? You know, I mean, you know, I describe stray cat energy. Depending on your answer, I will say. Because cats would say everything is meds. You know, they would say everything is meds. Oh, it's the pompous nature of a couple of cats. No, it's just like cats. Cats are just like, yeah, I fuck with that. I fuck with everything. Yeah, but also that's also meds. Oh, is it like the apathetic nature? Maybe it's just just the chill nature, you know? Okay. It's like you're just there. Just chill and you're just like, yeah. You know what? I'll take that. Yeah, I'll take that. Yeah, that's a compliment. I'll take that. Based on what did you say you? Well, I really, when I see a stray cat, I always, I don't, I prefer cats to dogs, I think. Say, I think I'd, you know, I'm open to love from both sides. But when I see a stray cat, I'm like, I would like to give it home every single time. I think we could be best friends. I could make it work. Japan is also the country where there are so many cats everywhere where you're like, are you a stray cat? Or are you just hanging out outside your house? This is the thing that I be so, I guess you checked via collar and if they're tagged or something. Yeah. I don't know how you would know. I don't, so I don't, you know, maybe because I'm a beta male, I don't have the confidence to like just grab a cat off the street, be like, it's mine. Like I don't know how people, when I hear these stories, people doing it, I'm like, do you know, like worry that like, like some might not have been like, brother to my cat? Is that legal to do in Japan? Don't you have to go, look, because like this is the country where you have to register a fucking bicycle. So I'm like, I don't know if you can just do that with a cat. I don't know. Oh, some countries you can do that, though. Yeah, I know some countries you can do that, but I don't know if Japan you can do that. Yeah, can you just pick up a cat and take it home? Like what are the, what are the legalities of that? I don't know. I've always wondered that because I know Japan has all the way to the straight cats. I find that a lot of people in Japan like to feed straight cats, but not take them in. Yes. So they'll feed the same straight cats every day, but they won't then go and give them like a home. Yeah. I think that's kind of like their way of caring for them. Yeah, yeah. Without having to be like, I don't, because I think that's a very, I think we're living in Japan as many fields this way. That's my, like my, the Japan part of my brain flares up when I think about giving a straight cat a home where I feel like the UK part of me is like, I'm giving a cat that needs a home, a home. But the Japan part of me is like, it's not mine. It's not mine. It's not mine. Yeah. Who's, who's cat is this? It's going to be some angry or barge. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Right. Like, you know what I mean? Yeah. Japan really like, even though I've only been here for like six years, I really do feel like a lot of the ways that I think has been rewired to be very like, ah, I can't, how I can't do this thing because you know, the rules and yeah. Yeah. I think that's just leaving an Asia kind of thing. I feel that this cat, my neighborhood in England, when I last went back, you know, he's like, such a fucking whore, man. Like, I've never seen such an attention for in my life. Okay. Okay. So we came back and there's this black cat and we're like, oh, we're fucking, we love cats. Right. And firstly he does is, not me cats are like a bit shy. He's in our garden. He just runs into our house. We're like, what the fuck? Oh, all right, bitch. Make yourself an old bitch. Yeah. Oh, bitch. All right. And he, we had to like chase him out because like, get a, get a call. So someone, someone, someone, we don't own him. You know, we were just invading your mind. We were just trying to give him some nice attention. Yeah. And then we see him. Next time we see him was in our front door. You see him again, we were like, oh, hello, we remember you. And then he gets, gets, gets some hats, goes over to the next, next fucking couple walking on the opposite side, gets pets from them. And I'm like, fuck, what a, what a fucking attention to? God fucking damn it. We thought we were special. Yeah. I remember, I remember seeing this great documentary. This is like an old Japanese TV program of this, of this family in like the Inaka in Japan somewhere forgot where it was, but they have like four or five dogs. Mm. You know, because that's the perks of the Inaka, right? Yeah. They have four or five dogs and this homeowner, the owner of these dogs rings up this Japanese TV program to be like, yeah. So I have five dogs and I definitely feed them all the same thing. Yeah. But one of them is an absolute fucking lot of a dog. Like he is humongous like overweight. And so this Japanese TV program was like, okay, we're going to get to the bottom of this and they go to the home and they basically kind of inconspicuously try to just like have that, that dog in their sight at all times, because like the owner is like off to work and whatever. And then they just start to tell the dog just once, once the moment they hear the owner leave the house, they just start walking outside and they go to every single other home in the neighborhood. And because it's Japan, everyone just feeds him. And he knows that he's going to get fed. So he comes back so true. And he's like 30 meals. So why are you so fucking fat? I was a dog. I would do that. I would do that one billion percent. Have you seen like a cat video where they strapped like a pro go pro on the cat? Yeah. And the cat just like is a fucking asshole. It just starts like all of like just starts beef with every other neighborhood cat. But how do you like emotionally handle that? Imagine strapping a go pro and you're like, holy shit, my cat is the asshole. It's just like my cat is like the ball. Oh yeah. It's so much of this. Oh shit. Look at this fucking chungus of a dog. He's so fucking chunky. To the audience is it looks like this small dog is turned into a fucking hot dog. Yeah. Yeah. And they just yeah, this is a program from like the 90s or something. And yeah, all the neighbors are just like, yeah, we just feed him every day because it just shows up to the front of our house. It's so cute. Oh. Yeah. Just watch it. Walks around the neighborhood. Oh my god. Can you name it? Yeah. The dog looks like a fucking sumo wrestler. That's a dog. It's so cute. Based. All right. Next prompt. What are your comments? Okay, join a random old man drinking group at 2 p.m. and not come back until 5 a.m. Ooh. I mean, people do this more than you. People would do it 100%. We do this more than you. Out of three of us though. Mmm. Mmm. Well, that's tough actually. Okay. All right. Ready. Three, two, one. Oh, see, I was going to say me on a good day. Yeah. I'd say yeah, if we get, if we get turbo Joey. Yeah. If you get demon mode, I feel like I'll do it. I feel like I'll look out of all of us. Joey drinks the least, but when he does. Oh, Oh, fucking boy. Oh, yeah. Does he go like plus ultra? I'll drink your under the table. I dream of the days where I will come across a Japanese saimane that will take me under his wing of his friend. I'm surprised you've never done that. Have you ever done that? You know, I think the moment the night ends, the friendship ends with salary man. Oh, really? So whenever I have a good night out with some salary man, when I meet them at a bar, it always ends that night. And as I go back to the same bar and I see them there. Yeah. I have like a bar that I frequent quite often in my neighborhood. And like I know the bar over there. I know everything like that. And I've befriended this guy who is a dentist. Yeah. Who's there every fucking night. It's really ironic though, because this guy has the most fucked up teeth I've ever seen. He's like, I'm going to school. I fucked him up so much. Yeah. So every time I'm like, I see him again, I don't even know his name. I just know him as the dentist. Yeah. And every time I see him at this bar, he's always like, hey, if you ever want to get your teeth checked and I look at his mouth and I'm like, no, I'm good. Thanks. But yeah, that's happened to me before, but I have a feeling because like, I feel like out of the three of us, you frequent like, I will follow Japanese men around. Yeah. If they want me to. Yeah. Yeah. I feel like out of the three of us, you have the courage to do that. I'm surprised it's never happened. Well, I mean, I have done this, I guess. Not a 2 pm a bit early for my start, but yeah, I have drank with a lot of random Japanese men until like 5 am. Yeah, right. Cause I'll just follow them to every bar they want to go to. Yeah. Just because I know I'll get a good story. Yeah. My dream is to be taken under the wing of a group of Japanese salarmen and then they invite me out to go horse betting with them. And I really just think I have a good time. The token like on the group. Dude, imagine, imagine hanging out, me hanging out with a Japanese salarmen and I'm dropping massive stacks on these bets. They would be like, the fuck is this guy? Do you have to do that? I don't spend a lot of money outside of Uber Eatsing, but for those boys, I wouldn't exist. I would, I would make very poor financial decisions just to see their reaction. I would be like, which one you want? Let's put 10 grand on that. Yeah, so it happens. I feel like the only reason you guys put me down is because I've been trained by Chad. Yeah, I've gone out with Chad from call ones. I've gone out with Chad too many times, especially in Osaka, where oh my god, every time I'm out in Chad with Osaka, I'm out in Osaka with Chad. I've definitely befriended a couple of like salarmen. You know, it's very easy to go out in Japan and make friends with literally anyone, especially the later the night gets, the easier it becomes because, especially past 12 in Japan, there's like this kind of like this culling hour of fake beer and joy. I'm kidding now, but like, because a lot of people in Japan, they drink, they go home before 12. Yeah. And then if someone's out past 12, they're normally pretty fucking degenerate. Yeah. And they're, and they're, they're dissocial. They are their two social eyes. Yeah. Because they're what they do. Totally. You know, what that says about society, you tell me, I don't know. But what I will tell you is that you can nearly almost make friends, even if you speak like pretty much zero Japanese. Oh, yeah. You know, past 1am in Japan. You just kind of vibe code, right? You need to be the vibe you want to be. Yeah. You know, you can't be shy. You've got to just fucking be like boys, drinks. Hello, I would like to buy you a drink and then open that conversation and maybe you'll get a guy who has a bit of English, maybe he'll invite you out. You know, maybe he's got a spot he wants to show someone off. You know, a lot of, don't you want to impress as well? Maybe he'll be like, I've got a spot that I really want to show you. Also trust me, I may be fluent in the language, but I've had more times than not where it didn't fucking matter because they're so fucking drunk, I can't understand what they're saying. I might as well be speaking a different language. Well, so I had a friend who was learning Japanese and I've been learning it for a year and a half. And he's over here right now and was having a good time and met up with me. And he was like, dude, I've been practicing for a year and a half and I'm having a really hard time because I don't want to go out drinking, but I really want to practice Japanese. And I was like, to be honest with you, I don't really know how. If you don't drink, I really don't know how you can practice. Yeah, it's pretty hard because most Japanese people don't want conversations, they want transactions. Especially in Tokyo. In Tokyo, yeah, if you went to like, there are like, I know there are places where you can do like courses where it's like you can go and practice like woodworking and like Hokkaido and you'll literally be talking Japanese all day every day. Yeah. But it's like if you're coming here for a two week vacation and you're hoping to talk to people in Tokyo, it's like, yeah, if you don't drink, it's not happening. If you drink, you don't drink, I don't know where to go. Maybe that's a failing on my part, but like the easy guaranteed way I know of talking to people, you're up for a drink. Yeah, totally. Yep, 100%. That's what I did when I remember the first time we all came. I mean, God came. I think at that time you just moved here. Yeah, okay. And there's one night where I think we're all hungover and so we weren't going out that night. And I remember I was sharing a room with Alan. Yeah. And I remember I was like, you know, I'm going to, I think I don't know why I chose maybe 2017 or one of those I then moved to 2016. So yeah, I would be 20 21. Yeah, just one of the drinks in Japan. 22. I was like, you know, I'm going to, I'm going to, you know, because we're staying in a just next to Golden Guy. Yeah, yeah. I was like, you know, I'm going to go out on my own. I think I'm going to, I'm going to try. I'm going to go out on my own and make some friends tonight. And I fucking did. And I was like, this is like, for me back then, it's a kind of socially anxious person. I was like, you know, I'm going to go out. I'm going to go to Golden Guy and I'm just going to try and talk to people who sit next to me. And I, yeah, I met two friends that night and I got their line and stuff. The whole night they were taking me around to other bars they liked and were being really friendly and showing me around. This is like 2017 took back when Golden Guy was a bit more chill. I'll say probably a bit half and half between foreigners and Japanese people there. It was like the 1910. Yeah. Now it's mostly Japanese. And now it's mostly foreigners. Yeah. Not many Japanese people. So it was like, it was a really fun memory for me. And I really like that. If anything, that really inspired me to want to, okay, I think I want to try be more social. I want to go out more. I want to try and, you know, really push myself out of my comfort zone. Because I know I can do it. I had a night. It was a great night. And I really wanted to, like, like, that was something that I treasured so much. Because I never had anything like that in the UK. It was like, if we didn't go out my mates, I mean, you don't go out. Yeah. You can't go out that you mate. But like, you're sold to your bar when you're 20 in the UK. Yeah. But in saying that, like, is it, I don't know how the drinking culture is like in the UK. I assume it's pretty much the same as in Australia, but like, is there like the idea of doing that in the UK? Like, you just go out to, like, say a pub or no, and you just like start talking to people. No, maybe you and one mate, you can make friends. Yeah. You can't go out. If you meet a guy with solid drink and they come to a group, you're like, every solo guy in the UK is like, you're like, oh, you're either like an alcoholic. Like an actual alcoholic. Right. And actual like, oh, someone with like a very, very serious problem. Yes. Or someone you just don't want to mess around with. Right. You know, they're a little sketchy. Yeah. That's unfortunate. Yeah. But in Japan, it's great. Yeah. It's like a great, because maybe it's a symptom of having quite lonely in general, but it's a great place to go out and just start talking to me. Yeah. Well, I think people are just desperate. People are desperate to hang out with people and they, you know, a lot of people, they work fucking brutal hours and they're like, the only thing I like is drinking. I'm not going home to my wife. That's the Japanese pastime. Yeah. I never thought I'd hear loneliness. Loneliness, Japan. That's crazy. That's crazy. All right. Let's see. Who's most likely to go to a new country and immediately seek out McDonald's to compare menus? I'm so grateful to say that I don't think any of us are like, yeah, we're not like, I don't think a single one of us would ever even consider this. There is a part of me sometimes where I go overseas and I see McDonald's and I'm like, I wonder, here's the time when I viewed as acceptable. Yeah. We're leaving and we're in the airport. Yes. All right. Your trip is done. Bucket. Get some. Yeah. And I'm a bit hungry. Yeah. I'm going to go to the airport. It's fine. That's the job. But when you're there, make the most of it. Yeah. Exactly. Don't waste it on McDonald's. Come on. All right. What about who's most likely to start a deep conversation? Nobody asked for. I already know this question. Answer. Really? It's a God. All right. We'll see answer God. The answer was right down. It's a corner. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. All right. I'll just write. All right. Three, two, one. God. Yeah. It's gone. It's gone. It's gone. It's gone. It's gone. It's gone. It's gone. It's gone. It's gone. It's gone. It's a master of deep conversations. And you know what? I hope you never changed. Yeah. I think that's why everyone is so glad to call you their friend. Yeah. I think they know they can always have a deep conversation. The best conversation with you I ever had was the first time I visited the UK and I was staying at your house in Brighton. Yeah. And we were absolutely fucking shit faced at like three in the morning in your yard. Yeah. I mean, we were just having a conversation under the night sky. I remember that conversation. I see. You were there. I think. I was. I think so. I think you were. Was that a different night? That was a different night. That one had been different. Yeah. Maybe I came down another night or something. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That was the best conversation. Yeah. I get to see if you're drinking with all of us. What I'm happening is that like I'll go to bed like two. I'm like I'm done. But I know that if I stay up till five, I'll get the deep chat with gone. Yeah. I'll get. And if you stay up to five, you get the deep chat with God. This is like a writer passage in the group. Yeah. I want everyone to say to everyone. I'm like I'm going to bed. And I see it. And then everyone get to. And then you know, you know, you then whoever it is, I'll be like, I got. And then the falls for answers the rules. It's like a ride. But it's always a great time. And I think it's great that like everyone knows that they can have a deep chat. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I want to know to me is it's those conversations where I'm like in the bed. It's when you make the most degenerate terms, you're like damn, my social thing just went up, you know? That is the social information. Yeah. That is the night sky. Hands up. Yeah. You feel like you've gotten closer to God. Yeah. Let's true. Let's true. Yeah. Never change, God. All right. Discoverly booked the wrong airports and no only notice the day off. Uh, well, we know who it is in the in the group. Yeah. Okay. We know it's a good but out of all of us it be you. Why would it be me? It would be you. Why would it be me? It would be you. It would be you. I was about to say it's none of us. Well, why would we go on? Gone is gone. What is gone on this before? Uh, what's the word, uh, say life here, the blasey. Yeah. Gone is the most blasey out of us. What's the blasey off? I kind of like, eh, like so be it kind of. Yeah. I feel like I would book something and be like, oh, wrong airport. Yeah. But I will deal with it when we get there. Cancel it. Fuck it. I'll figure it out. Yeah. Gone. You would do this. This is your. I would do this. But I wouldn't. I would not book the wrong airport in the first place. You know, I mean, we all know in the TT cinematic universe. It would be fucking diadist and Emily. Yeah. 100%. Yeah. Yeah. They check with Sydney. I think they check with Sydney. Okay. They. Sydney could have stopped us. Okay. And yet they somehow. I should fuck it up. Uh, I, yeah, I don't think I'd fuck it up. Yeah. I don't think I've ever done this or not. I've never done it. And I'm pretty confident. I'll say it now. I think I've got my whole life not doing this. Do you think so? I think I'm very diligent with my, my planning and travel. Yeah. I feel like we're too travel savvy to not do that now at this point. Travel it becomes so much less scary when you do it a lot. Cause you're like, I just know what to do or to look out for. How to things that will go wrong. How to plan for that. That's true. Super easy. That's true. I haven't lost my passport yet. Lose their luggage but still insist the trip is going fine. I don't know. I don't think it was written to you this. I mean, we all lost our luggage for the trash. Yeah. I think we made the most of it. Yeah. Yeah. But none of us said it was fine. No. Wait, didn't I get, wait, we all got our own two cases, right? For what? For that trip. We lost all the trash tastes. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Two thousand and twenty two. Yeah. Yeah. We took all the trash tastes here. Yeah. And we had our own personal stuff too in a different suitcase. Yeah. Each. And I think we all got our own suitcases. Yeah. We all got our own shirts. But we didn't get the really expensive suitcase that had all our very expensive stuff in it. No, do you know why? Why? I think I told you this on trash days. Wait, why? Because you know they're all like the shit happening at the airport. Yeah. So when I tried, because it was my responsibility to check in like the trash tastes luggage. Yeah. And they were like, okay, your normal luggage fine. But this is like over, uh, over size stuff. Overweight or oversized. You got to go to this. Of the counter. To check it in in this like special counter. And I don't know. I remember them like opening up the case and like just, okay, you can, you can put it in. And it was like in this special like, it's like when you feel in the back of your head like, yeah, I can I just sit go, can I just go in the machine? Yeah. Yeah, just double check. Can I just make sure it's gone into the void? Yeah. So I feel better about this. Yeah. And I remember them putting it into this like machine and unlike the usual machine way, it's just like a conveyor belt. Yeah. It the door just like shuts close. And you don't see it again. All right. I don't know why, but I feel like I'm never going to see that again. And we did post six months later. Yeah. And we did six months later. Yeah. Yeah. Whatever system they had in that airport, that was the reason why it was finally going to several again in my life. No, fuck that. Yeah. Although I did one time after that. Oh, he did? Yeah, I had no choice. It was like the only fight was available. There was the only fight that was available to the time I wanted. Right. And I was terrified because I had checked in luggage. So I'm never seen this. And I was like, please, please. But I in my head, I was like, it would be so fucking funny if it did get like, yeah, what a what a bang a story that would have been. That would have been such a goal story. Let me let me let me let me let me find a good one. All right. Okay. Okay. That's a thing. Connor. Oh, what? Start a friendly competition and take your way to seriously. Yes, Connor. Yeah, there's nothing wrong with that. Like I said, I'm over it now. I'm seeing a single player on the games now. I don't think I'm going to play. Final fantasy really. What can I say? Like could you fucks my guess? Sleeps through every announcement and misses their connecting flights. Broke you. It's Connor. Yeah, I was looking at you. It's Connor. How is it me? I never sleep at NApple. I Brochute Yeah, I was looking at you is Connor. How is it me? I would never sleep at Napple How is it me it's so funny you were like looking directly at him us to a like it's you Literally never missed a flight my life you've come so close When I've missed the flight before I'd never missed a flight my life. Why did I miss the flight nearly? I don't know I feel like you make it shit up now You seem like you have the personnel by coding here Look just because I'm vibes isn't me. I don't plant well. I plan very well No, I I'm 100% honest. I ain't plan very well. That's not I take pride in my mind This isn't about the planning. I always just is not about a planning. This is about just the like you You know you let your guard down for a bit and No, this is you bro. This is you I would know it's me have you missed a flight before I've never missed a flight never I have never missed a flight never lost my I've never lost my phone. Do you know why it's it's all habit building, you know I'm Look it's I have to because I have ADHD So there's certain behaviors that I have to program within myself otherwise I know I would fuck shit up I've missed a flight before I've never missed a flight. How'd you miss the flight? I missed a flight. We should join up on Joey. I missed a miss the flight because I was too enthralled in a YouTube That's crazy I was sitting in Las Vegas Airport Waiting to get my flight to LA to go back home and I was watching a YouTube video and I was like damn This is your videos fucking awesome and I was sitting at the gate I was sitting at the gate It's like it's like six in the morning. So I've been up since like four a year That's my brain was just like to shit at the gate and I was sitting at the gate headphones on and I was watching a YouTube video And I was like okay, I got like 30 minutes Whatever the dude I was I was just sitting there like this just watching at it and then I finished the video and I looked up and I'm like hmm Orfully less amount of people than when I started and I was like huh I wonder when my flight to LA is and then I checked the clock and I was like oh I missed my flight 15 minutes ago Oh my god, and so I went up to the counter and I was like yes, I've got like a connecting flight They would have been like a paging Joey. Yeah, yeah, and me while I'm fucking headphones on just watching this YouTube Thank you. I don't remember what it was but clearly it had my full attention And you don't remember the YouTube video that made you lose a flight No, and that's why I'm fucking mad about it to this day Thankfully, I was in Vegas so all I had to do is just ring up Arkey's mom and shamefully just be like yeah You can give another flight. It's six a year. You can get another one. I couldn't get another one late the all the flights for full Would you tell them I was like I miss my flight Did you tell them? Presumably they dropped you off there. Yeah, they dropped me off there Yeah Dad fucking woke up at five in the morning to drop me off there and I was just like yeah So I kind of miss my flight and I have to reschedule so they didn't they dropped off at the air and they still missed the flight So do they ask you why? Yeah, and I don't remember what you tell them what you tell them. I mean this was like what 2018 2019 This is years ago. I don't remember what I said, but they're clearly with not very amused But I'm gonna have to stay another night if that's okay And this was like you know not long into my relationship with Arkey right? I felt really fucking bad to be like my bad. Can you pick me up again? Bro, I'm getting host elf on like that ain't no way I could like I This I would just gone Google and look at this and I've like like pay full price no I went up to the counter and I was like I need to get this fucking flight from LA to Tokyo Like I need to go back home and I will like yeah The next available like open seat is tomorrow. So what happened to the flight that you had in LA. Oh, I missed that too Did you get a refund or did you get a replacement? Oh, I had to buy another one. Oh my god. Yeah So I never do this. Yeah, so I was a moron. That was the one an only time So now I've learned when I'm at the gate. I just don't have headphones on the only time I've ever missed a flight that I was scheduled for is that I showed up to the Domestic terminal in LAX and I didn't have idea on me. So they wouldn't let me Oh really I don't know my passports specifically right right right right right I just figured like Every other domestic flight done. I just I Dease fine, but they didn't accept it and they were like has to be passport. Oh shit Well, I mean at least it was only a domestic. Yeah, I wasn't a big deal. I just missed a basketball game Yeah, I missed a domestic and an international Yeah, I mean that's like missing an international hurt a lot every I was fucking Domestic when you're like, yeah, I've never missed a can I've had some really close that I've booked personally like connection flights Oh, yeah, I've had that so yeah, I booked like connections that were like 50 minutes. Oh, dude I've had some connections for like 30 minutes. What the fuck would you fucking do that? Because that was the only choice I had and also this was like make it I made it what was like two minutes to spare I could raise because I literally had to be the asshole to at the fucking You know when you have to like recheck your bag I had to be a recheck your bag. Yeah, I had to be I had to be the asshole at fucking TSA to be like I need to get on this fucking flight now move. Did they even let you on the? The the baggage like will they even check your bag in 30 minutes? I don't think they do because it was it was a it was a flight I think to Europe or something it was one of the European I would even I would have even less face This is a yeah, this is a long time. It was the Japan connecting. I'm like I think it was I think it was Amsterdam Airport that I did that. No, that's the worst Yeah, it was the worst airport and I think it was maybe the same a 30 minute connection at Amsterdam Airport I don't you believe that oh yeah, I was I can't believe it was the most stressful time my life And this is me Jesus threat the needle in the camel Pollock so I I would believe like the second time I was at Amsterdam Airport and I was like I need to get on this fucking flight now Can you make can you Google can you make a 30 minute connection at Amsterdam? I mean I mean I'm not I said this belief Jerry. I don't quite frankly. I don't believe you I mean I may I managed to make it and you came international No, no, it was it was Amsterdam to Fuck it was oh it was Amsterdam to Finland Okay, yeah, so it was technically you okay, right scroll down though is 50 minutes long enough for a layer in Amsterdam International connections minimum layer was about 50 minutes average. It's recommended to have since international yeah minimum is 50 Yeah, yeah, I believe you can make it so you can make it It's just I thought you were saying domestic is yeah, you can make it. It was just incredibly fucking stressful It was like doing a fucking speed like literally every frame counted. I think you had the minimum I've done for an international I think is an hour. Oh yeah, even then that's tight But you know I what when I was last time I'm cute and if people want to get past me I don't really care if I'm not in a rush if someone's like my flight. I'm like dude. Go ahead. Yeah, it's like understandable Yeah, but I'm so I get it. We'll get really upset about it Take brother you you're gonna wait three hours I think you'll be fine You'll be fine. Don't worry Yeah, yeah, no, it was I'd never want to do that again. So it was Joey all along It was Joey. It was me. I fold you all I can't believe it Gives the worst advice but says it confidently. Okay, that's me I'm glad you said it I'm under no illusions here Come up with a bang a video idea while drunk and actually film it Oh Where have you guys ever Wait filmed it drunk or filmed it I've never filmed a video drunk no, I definitely have I think I might have done one of tips like tips I've done a couple of sponsored ad reads tips because they'll be like we need this for tomorrow and I'll just come out from a night out Oh, yeah, I feel like every YouTuber is gone through that What's up guys? I like I like I'm locking for like the three minutes of that. Yeah totally all right I said I said me Garn said gone and Connor also said gone. I gone is the kind of guy who loves kind up with Inspiration I don't ask for drunk If you like hear me out This idea have you ever had that yeah, we've come up with ideas drunk and then you've gone through it Bro, I come up with ideas Nomads in my mental state I always know to down. That's the thing. I always know to down no matter what No, then I judge afterwards whether it's good. Yeah, no, no I've done that too where I've had some drunk nights especially when I'm drinking with youtubers Yeah, Chad where we've come up with video ideas and I'm like all right I'll write that down and then the next morning I look back and I'm like Fuck no, what? It's a dumb ass shit and sometimes I come over like jokes and shit like that I don't normally come up with video ideas I'm normally so out of thinking about YouTube Unless I'm talking to YouTube about YouTube while drinking Yeah, the only time I do is when I'm drinking with another youtuber. Yeah. I don't know some Sometimes when I'm drunk or like Like just hang out with other youtubers sometimes they're just bang content. Yeah, just in just our banter Mate for tears drunk. Oh, yeah, like I've done so many videos where I've like drank for the content. Yeah Totally It's a fun, but also dangerous They are very it never feels like you're you're like actively putting your career in danger other than when you're drunk Like you feel like you're like, yep, this is a coin flip true Not because I'll you know you just you might just do some stupid shit while you're drunk You just don't know yeah, you're just like you're not in control your body sometimes. Yeah, and You know normally you have mates there to kind of rain you in but if I've Hopefully I've I've done you know, I've done like a stream where I did like drink driving Um, what? Okay, I was gonna fucking say Jesus Christ Like how many beers can I still drive with all right with the driving wheel? Oh like a truck similar Yeah, yeah, but like no one's there to stop me if I get too drunk. Oh, yeah, no But I'm like I'm like I'm like a level 99 drinker What does that mean? I feel extremely confident in my ability to like control myself And stop when I feel like even when like getting pretty tipsy like I think it's like something that you kind of learned from Drinking often. Yeah, I've had like a lot of travel vlogs where I've gone out and I've gotten drunk and stuff like that And but I don't know maybe it's like the youtuber brain of me But the even in my incredibly drunk state there's a part of my brain. That's like don't turn the camera on Yeah, I mean I normally you know, I felt people the youtubers are whatever asked me I'm not gonna be a don't ever film a video drinking if you know, yeah, it's just not worth it Yeah, but you know live stream drunk before of course. Yeah, yeah, yeah, but like you know We all drink quite often. We're all very used to it. We're all very comfortable with it like I think yeah I wouldn't like sometimes there's like you know bright-eyed streamers and like I'm gonna drink and do some things Hold off. Yeah, like yeah It's like you know, it's so easy to get like you know, you're streaming or you're filming a video You might get excited and you know, maybe that immediately is you drinking a bit more and you know Even just you not knowing your limits and maybe getting a little bit over Kind of really bad ramifications. It's very easy to do that. It's very easy. It's like shots are involved Oh my god, like whenever I drink on stream. It's always normally not shots. Well, it's something you can manage Yeah, beer is so easy to pace yourself. Yeah, beer is like a steady incline whereas it's just like a spike Yeah, you just fucking like throwing pennies down a well and her like hit the floor soon. Yeah, I don't know what that means But I don't know what that means either but I agree it's deep Down brun that's something that's some life advice life advice. So don't don't firm yourself drinking Yeah, or if you do get to like a reasonable age where you've had enough is experience drinking to know your limits That's why I like my the biggest like The most I've locked in when I've drinking When we're in Australia, yeah, and we were live streaming and chattles with us. Oh my do remember that I was like it was Rob stream Yeah, it was Rob stream Rob stream Chad joined us and I was like I have never used 100% of my brain when I'm drunk until that moment. Oh my god Yeah, that live stream. I knew that you guys were there and you're way more responsible than I am So I was like I'm gonna let these guys be the parent figure. I'm just gonna go demon mode with chat I'm gonna match your you're like You're like a fusion reactor with you. Yeah, you bounce off it Where's I'm like Chad fucking shop giving the out Yeah, bring down Chad will give you alcohol and then bait you and then that's the worst combination on like a live stream session Yeah, and I'm like I'm like a baby dear I was just like walk towards the head Pretty happy to say no, so like I'm drinking good of my own pace in and like let me fuck it in I guess the like the I'm trying to Trunk you know with me and I'm like yeah fucking I'll join you Loss ad joke before the punchline Yeah, that's pretty easy Oh Pretty easy, huh? I think so I feel like it wasn't easy really. Yeah, am I crazy? I know three Okay, so one Joey I put gone I put myself Well, what's it going? I think it's pretty close to you mean you Joey put Joey and gone put Jerry and I put gone Yeah, yeah, um because gone will just fucking laugh at shit in his head So he'll he'll laugh at the idea of it before the jokes even said so he'll laugh halfway through it I think you do this too. I also do this. Yeah, yeah, that's why I said it was easy because like I definitely I okay I feel like gotten I both do this I love more of the stupid jokes. Yeah, you do Yeah, I love the jokes that almost don't even constitute as a joke That's valid is like any funny statement. I'm just like yeah, that was funny I just sometimes I just laugh at like random times because my mind is somewhere else I'm a be real I'm gonna be fucking real with you guys Connor is very calculating. He's like is this the time to laugh. I'm not too sure Nobody does that. Yeah, you do I do not do that. I don't think about wait wait wait wait wait wait wait It's pretty cyclone It's like Patrick Bateman That's way for the punchline I'll see the next one then all right. Can't believe if you think I think about my tiring. Yeah, I don't know I just like what do you mean you're laughing for the joke? It can't go that way sometimes What do we got panic by souvenirs at the airport to five minutes before boarding Okay, oh, okay. Oh Oh, that's hard actually Okay Oh, we're oh my god I got my answer three two one I think all of us do this actually I was gonna say all of Customer Gump at gauntlet gauntlet Yeah, okay, I do this at me because Japan souvenir game is off the charts. Yes, but it was never like in bread into me like I don't I was thinking about this the other day right yeah, because a couple of days ago I went out to shibuya to go do Christmas shopping Because I gotta do that. Yeah, because Chris is coming up right we're filming this in like the middle of November So I need to go do some Christmas shopping because I Fucking socket gift giving Is this a me thing or is this just a male thing? I think sometimes people I would say people who are good at gift giveings Always able to see something and think who it's perfect for yes, and like I don't think that way Like I don't see something and think that would be perfect for God dude Arki is so fucking good at gift giving it actually frustrates me I had to get her to help me pick gifts and I'm like I wish I didn't have to do that I wish I could just like go to a store look at something and being like that's perfect for that person But I always overthink it being like because I don't know Maybe it's because I'm not used to getting gifts, but like I always think like I look at something and I'm like Oh, yeah, that might be good for this person But then I overthink it and being like oh, but actually This gift might be better or maybe this gift might be better Or maybe they won't even like this gift. What if they don't like the gift? Oh, I don't know And then I psych myself out and end up not getting the gift You're like I'm 50-50 now really yeah Sometimes Problem is people are easier to get gifts than others and youtubers are hard as well. Yeah, yeah problem is You just fucking takes effort Yeah, it does it's a lot of like I've had like gifts. I give them to you guys where I like it's not something I'm if it's not something where I'm like, yo, this is this is the fucking gift, you know I'm like holy shit. I just signed the perfect gift for Joey. Fuck what I what what the fuck am I gonna get anywhere? Anyone else Cross the perfect gift back. Yeah, yeah, yeah, like when I got like the Marjong set for you I was like how have I like God has blessed me right now to find the perfect gift for this one person I am a simple man. I look at Marjong And then I was just like shit. That's like one out like 20. Yeah, but that becomes the problem then because now I've got like five Marjong sets in my house because other people think that way too I was like, oh god, oh god, what am I gonna do with all these Marjong sets? It's like it's like a You know a vinyl you can choose the one that you fancy. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. No, that's the thing. It's like I love it when See that's the thing right. It's like I've because I'm I suck it also gifting things for myself That might also be the issue as well like I'm really bad at buying things for myself. Uber it's yeah unless it's like something that's like super Like if it's something that I've always wanted for example, right? But like I know that because it's me Like I always think about it all the time right yeah, I don't go up to people and being like hey What's this like one thing that you've been thinking about this whole time because then it kind of defeats the purpose Of like gift giving if that makes sense. I guess you know what I mean? I think out of everyone you probably would be the easiest to get Yeah, just grab a fucking vinyl Yeah, that is true. Yeah, like my Least favorite question is what do you want for Christmas? I'm life copy Well, yeah, because it's like yeah, or like what do you want for your birthday? Because like I don't know and I'm tossed up between a fucking Mars bar and a fucking house. Ah, birthday doesn't count You're I can't give you a house share of your birth. Yeah, but that's the thing right? It's like I don't I don't even know what to get myself What if I get you a solicitor who can help you start the process that would be great. I'll hire him for you for two hours That was awesome actually I feel I feel like as I've grown older birthdays just like that's that's that's a write-off you can You can go without getting a birthday gift, you know what I mean? I gotta give gift. Yeah Yeah, yeah, no that makes sense. I make sense. But I think you can just get a drink and you're like all right That's my job. I get around. Yeah, my my job is done Speaking of which you guys should go Christmas shopping Fuck yeah, I sure is because you're gonna forget otherwise like I do every fucking year. I don't forget Joey. I put it off waste That's two separate things and then he's at the airport and he's like Fuck yeah, I only give god damn it. Yeah, I know that's the only thing I dread about Christmas is just the Just like fuck what am I gonna get people? Yeah, cuz you know, maybe maybe I'm cycling myself out being like I want The gifts that I give to my the closest people in my in my life something to be memorable But obviously that is a very tall standard that is pretty impossible to fulfill every single year, right? So I psych myself out and being like well fuck if I can't find the perfect gift then Is it even worth it to get this other gift that is like not up to the my own standard? Yeah, I feel good about that and in turn will they feel good about that? And I just weirdly suck myself out about it But even though you know as they say it's all about you know the the it's the thought that counts right as I said Give card It's like the worst that you do but but that's the problem right? It's like I suck it give giving so much that like Admittedly in a lot on a lot of like my friends birthdays and stuff like that. That's what I've resorted to Now I'm just like oh get yourself something nice, you know, but I don't Like she's a street hooker And Amazon gift cards Little more classy than just like giving a fiber, you know, like I don't know. Oh, I don't know Do you feel weird about just getting cash as a gift card? You can't give cash. Yeah, right? But then also I feel back giving a gift cards now. I'm like here's this cash that used to be usable anywhere in the world It is now only usable for a set period of time at the store That's what I'm saying. So like I try and avoid that now But then I run into the issue of well fuck I don't know what else to give them because I don't know what they want You can get them the most random thing and It'll probably be you have a story and a thought behind yeah, as long as you have a thought, you know You know, I know you really like this and maybe you are like, yeah, but I really wanted to get you there. Yeah, yeah Yeah, I gotta learn that skill. I don't know how you learn the art of bullshit Salon a story Get a get a get a no pad and just be like Whenever someone talks about something you like Lock in right now. Do you want to have a other damn? Yeah I do write it down and then when I get to the gift card. I'm like I'll read the note and I'm like Yeah, but is that what they actually want? Or what if they already got it by the time you know since the last time I talked to them about it Yeah, but have you ever got a gift you already have With your five-mile show sense. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Do you care? Do you care? No, I It's like she is like how would they have known? Yeah, it's like it's like down That's for me you got this for me. That's true. Yeah, that's I feel like yeah, I guess it's a mental diff Yeah, yeah, really mental diff. I can't wait. Oh Yeah, what Yes, because if you join patreon.com slash trash tapes.
