Greetings, friends, and welcome back to the Small Brand Podcast, where today you're joining us from Tokyo, Japan, unfortunately.

And I say unfortunately because I haven't been having a very good time.

And yes, I'm going to piss off a lot of my viewers.

I'm going to really offend you with this one, probably more so than the India opinions, because I just don't like Tokyo.

I think it's like harder to find cool to do here, or it is.

Maybe it's too easy to find cool stuff to do it's

it's it's there's too much going on there's too many people there's too many whites

and I just want to break it down for you guys today okay

so make sure you hit that subscribe button

so you get all the terribly racist rants in the future as I post them make sure

you get notified um let's see where do we begin um well

I will say I've been in Japan about nine days 10 days almost

you know I landed in Osaka I did kind of a ambitious drinking video

I did pretty much three days straight just like a booze hound uh went to tenjin matsuri

it's like a fireworks festival one of the biggest in japan i think the biggest is actually in kyoto um

but this is like the second biggest one i think in japan huge festival fireworks

and and street food

and you know cold beers on ice friendly friendly locals uh

met up with my buddy ian he's a stand -up comic in austin texas

and uh we've just been bowling around japan just absolutely getting smashed and, uh, calling each other gay in front of the Japanese salary, man.

And they absolutely love it.

A little travel hack for you.

Just call your friend gay and, uh, everyone will immediately love you.

No, it's been a really good time.

Um, I feel like the trip started really well in Osaka.

Um, that's just like my bread and butter, man.

I just, I don't think I could ever film a bad video there.

So in a lot of my drinking videos, I'll just barge into a random bar and,

you know, Not every bar that I go into makes the final cut for YouTube.

It's not always the greatest experience, right?

I'm not going to include me going in and having an awkward...

I mean, unless it's funny, I'll always include the funny stuff.

But if it's just uncomfortable and no one's talking to me and they don't want me to film,

then it's not really going to make the video.

So every now and then that will happen.

Although I will say, most of the time it doesn't happen.

But that's always what I'm afraid of that's the risk that I'm taking when I'm going into these bars,

shoving a camera in people's faces when they're just trying to decompress.

I understand ethically, it's not like the greatest thing, but I do try to do it in like a subtle way and the way that,

you know, people feel comfortable.

Anyways, all this goes to say, I walked into this one little bar district and it was scary, man.

I was, I was afraid that they were gonna,

you know, shun me a little bit or you just never know when you're just walking into a random bar.

Again, I don't pick these places out.

I don't have a producer.

I don't select them ahead of time.

I just, I know like a neighborhood that has a good atmosphere.

And then I just go there.

Right.

And for all the people in my DMs asking me, Oh, what should I do when I go to Japan?

What should I do when I go to Japan?

Just do that.

Just literally do that.

I'm not going to give you like a pin.

I'm not going to give you like a secret bar that I know about.

I'm not going to, you know, give you the coordinates of some like amazing place.

It's literally just as you see me filming the video, I am literally figuring it out as i go there i mean

i know the neighborhoods obviously i know osaka very well

but places like tokyo i don't know i have no idea even in osaka

i couldn't tell you the name of any bar

i've ever gone to in osaka not one honestly even the bar

i worked at even the bar i worked at in osaka for three

or four months i didn't know the name i never learned the name

I knew the name of the building I knew the name of the neighborhood

but it's not like in America where there's like a big flashing sign

or maybe there is maybe there is but I just can't read it

so I don't even try so I'm walking down this like random alley

and it didn't seem promising

it was just kind of like a dark kind of you know just kind of a little grungy alley

and a lot of these um uh Japanese bars they're they're they're nestled in like a big building, right?

So maybe in one building, there's like, you know, five to 15 or 20 bars, right?

And you can have to go up an elevator and then you have to walk in.

And it's not like surveying bars in America where you're walking down like sixth street in Austin, or you're walking down, you know,

in, I don't know, college street in Athens, Georgia, UGA.

It's not like that where you can see the atmosphere, like from the street, you have to,

you kind of have to go in and like commit, right?

So anyways, I'm just walking into this random building and you know, but i hear laughter coming from this bar so i just walk in

and classic osaka fashion everybody just greets me with open arms

they ask me where i'm from i tell them i lived

there we break down you know the cultural barriers over like seven

or eight beers we smoke some cigarettes in the corner of the bar it was actually

so funny they had a I.. smoking corner in the bar,

which actually reminded me, it's very nostalgic for like the 90s growing up in America when they used to have,

you know, the smoking section in like the Cracker Barrel or something.

And that tells you everything you need to know about my socioeconomic status growing up.

Going to Cracker Barrel was like, you know, a big deal for us.

But anyways, even if they have a smoking section, it's still going to bother everyone.

I mean, it's smoke.

It billows out of the section into the other section.

That's the nature of smoke, ladies and gentlemen.

But the idea that in an even smaller bar, by the way, like probably the size of this apartment,

really, really, really small bar, you know, seven or eight people just jammed in there.

And I'm just in the corner smoking, but they have like a little divider.

So they feel like they're actually, you know, helping out the other patrons.

They're not being rude by smoking right in their faces.

They're like, I was like, can I smoke in here?

Like, no, no, no, you can't smoke in here, but you can smoke in the corner.

I'm like, I don't think that's, okay.

I mean, I'm going to smoke in the corner, but I just want you to know that this is doing nothing.

100

It's a little flimsy little plywood in.

101

Anyways, that was a great time.

102

I got absolutely smashed.

103

It was probably the most drunk, maybe the most drunk ever on camera I've ever been.

104

Well, actually, no I take

105

that back probably the Myanmar series I was fucked up I actually watching

106

that back I actually couldn't believe I was still forming like full

107

and complete sentences and not slurring everywhere because I was

108

so fucked up also it may have been the heat maybe the heat was exacerbating the drunk um

109

but who knows

110

but yeah dude this time I was fucking lit you know

111

it's like this dude I met was screaming in my face

112

we're just chanting Japanese sayings I had no idea what they mean.

113

I think I may have hailed Hitler a few times on accident by, by saying that we, you know, we lead with our hearts in Osaka.

114

You know, it wasn't this exact gesture, but I think, you know, what I'm getting at.

115

Uh, I had so many beers.

116

I turned racist.

117

Um, yeah, it was like, it was the shit dude.

118

It was just such a good time.

119

It's exactly what I look for when i come to japan

120

so i think i did like one day of drinking and then i went out with um

121

those people in kyobashi

122

that video is in kyobashi by the way another example of kyobashi coming through it is just the best burrow

123

i guess you could call it in all of japan it's on the osaka loop line

124

and there's just reliably fun experiences to be had

125

that you're not going to get the umeda experience the really flashy polished

126

you know hankyu you know this huge mall with like designer stores.

127

You're not going to get that in Kyobushi.

128

You're going to get like hostess bars, karaoke joints, snack bars, smoky izakayas, you know, sticky floors, cigarettes inside.

129

It's just exactly what I'm looking for when I come to Japan.

130

And actually looking back on my life, I can't believe that I was stationed there for lack of a better word.

131

I can't believe I got a job in the best neighborhood in all of Japan.

132

Or maybe I'm just thinking that it's the best because I lived there and I think fondly of it.

133

But needless to say, Kyobushi is just the greatest.

134

And I had a lot of fun filming there.

135

And then I went Egan.

136

We did Tenjin Matsudi.

137

We called each other gay a thousand times.

138

The Japanese salaryman loved it.

139

Somebody showed us their cock.

140

I may or may not have got that on camera.

141

You may or may not have to subscribe for the Patreon to view that.

142

If you want to see a Japanese man's dick, I don't know, that's really up to you.

143

The pubes were out of control, I'll just say that.

144

Jesus Christ, Osaka, you come through in so many surprising ways.

145

But anyways, yeah, then me and Egan went from Osaka, and now we're in tokyo and i said unfortunately earlier

146

because i really mean it i really do not like tokyo

147

i don't like it i don't like where every fifth person is a foreigner i don't like

148

that i can hear the midwestern accents you know sprinkled throughout shibuya station i don't like

149

that i see fat sweaty pink swollen confused jet -lagged american tourists everywhere

150

Am I describing myself?

151

Yes, I am.

152

But I don't want to see a mirror held up to myself.

153

I don't need that.

154

I want to feel special when I come to Japan.

155

I lived here, guys.

156

I know more than you, all right?

157

I'm better than you, okay?

158

All right?

159

I'm not just an average tourist, although being in Shibuya does make me feel like that.

160

It makes me feel like...

161

a brain dead jet lagged idiot.

162

And I mean, truly I am, I am that I'm trying to pretend like I'm not by coming here and by having taken a job here,

163

you know, seven years ago, I can say I got in before everybody else.

164

I can say I'm like one of those

165

Bitcoin bros, you know, that, that got in early.

166

Right.

167

But it's not like I have any claim to Japan.

168

It's not like, you know, I make colonizer of jokes all the time

169

but it's not like I can own anything here I'm I am just a tourist

170

that is the reality I you know am a drop in the bucket

171

and you you really feel it distinctly very acutely in Shibuya

172

I made the mistake I love Egan great guy hilarious um go check him out doing stand -up in Austin

173

but I you know I followed him to Shibuya for convenience

174

and god damn it I don't know if I should have, man.

175

Like this hotel is in the worst place for someone like me.

176

Like I don't like crowds.

177

I don't like being around a ton of foreigners.

178

I, you know, maybe it's like a developing phobia that I'm experiencing right now,

179

but I don't want to be in a massive crowd of people and not know comfortably that I can escape, right?

180

Like if I'm jammed in a train car, What if something happens?

181

What if there's a fucking tsunami?

182

There's going to be like a wave of people.

183

There's going to be like, you know, an onslaught.

184

It's going to be like a Travis Scott concert.

185

If something actually really popped off in Shinjuku Station, if there was an earthquake and the ceiling started caving in,

186

that's the last place you want to be, dude.

187

And by the way, the Nankai Trough is expected to create a cataclysmic, apocalyptic, Armageddon -like earthquake slash tsunami in Japan in the next 30 years.

188

It's going to happen.

189

So being in Tokyo, being in Osaka, where for sure there's going to be a deadly tsunami soon is frightening.

190

And my anxiety gets the best of me for sure.

191

I don't know.

192

Maybe it's the heat.

193

Maybe it's the jet lag.

194

Maybe it's the million beers I've had during my time here.

195

But I just don't like Shibuya.

196

I really don't.

197

I mean, I know I joke about it in the video.

198

So like get people on my side, you know, drinking in Osaka just to make some friends.

199

but no sincerely like i do not like you know shibuya

200

shinjuku uh asakusa is cool asakusa is kind of pretty um what's the one with all the anime

201

and stuff weebs leave it in the comments what's the neighborhood with all the anime

202

and stuff i think it's asakusa anyways i just don't like it man

203

it's too intense there's too many people tokyo just sucks balls it sucks man it sucks

204

and there's so many other places in japan to go see you know egan

205

and i i'll have egan on my podcast uh for the next episode

206

we're going to talk about what we did today

207

which is batshit crazy went to the um the tomb of jesus christ where he's allegedly born

208

i saw this chris broad video you know however many years ago where he went

209

i was like i want to go do this myself i think this would be hilarious especially with egan

210

because he's like kind of a catholic i guess catholic influencer online um

211

so i just thought it'd be an excellent matchup for our time in japan

212

but enough of that we'll get to that tomorrow

213

but going out to hachinohe where it was like in the

214

north japan at aomori um almost to hokkaido the northernmost island first of all

215

it's cooler there it's like you know five degrees fahrenheit cooler like two celsius cooler

216

which you know it doesn't sound like a lot but in shibuya

217

when it's like 95 fahrenheit to go from like 95 to like, I don't know, 86, 87.

218

It's nice, man.

219

It makes a big difference.

220

It really does.

221

It goes from like, I'm, you know, sweltering hot.

222

I'm about to melt on the sidewalk to like, okay, I can, I can walk around.

223

You know what I'm saying?

224

Put on some sunblock, put on a hat and I can walk around.

225

Uh, it's way more manageable like that for sure.

226

Um, but not only that, but like the population density, there's nobody out there, man.

227

It's all rice fields, nice people, you know local trains they didn't even take fucking the suika the tokyo uh transit card

228

that you had to get a paper ticket right

229

so going from here shibuya to there it was so relaxing and rejuvenating

230

and i just got back right i literally just closed the door ripped on the you know started the podcast

231

because it's all fresh i had to fucking indoor shibuya station and Shinjuku Station after, you know, having, uh, you know,

232

a, a paradise, a paradise like experience.

233

Okay.

234

You almost had me there.

235

I almost, I almost lost my train of thought.

236

I didn't though.

237

Cause I'm so fired up.

238

I really don't like Tokyo.

239

I think it's, it's for the pigs.

240

It's for the piggies, the swollen, pink, white, sweaty, hairy, nasty piggies,

241

the lost jet lagged idiots you know i'm sorry i you know

242

it's it's it's great let me back this up let me back

243

this up let me back this up i don't want to alienate people

244

because i know a lot of people love tokyo it's great

245

If it is your first or second, maybe even your third time in Japan, maybe.

246

But for me, after the first time being here, it lost its charm completely.

247

I mean, yeah, there are some sites that are cool if you go without the tours or, you know, without all the crowds.

248

Like if you go to Asakusa Shrine, beautiful place, objectively beautiful.

249

I understand why it is popular.

250

I really do.

251

I understand.

252

But its popularity has severely diminished the quality of the experience.

253

So what I would suggest is there's a hostel behind the Sokseh Shrine.

254

If you dare go to Tokyo, if you dare, there is a hostel behind the Sokseh Shrine.

255

It's like a little capsule hotel.

256

Ooh, everybody wants to stay in a capsule hotel when in reality, a capsule hotel is just a fucking hostel.

257

It's just a hostel.

258

They've just rebranded the idea of a hostel.

259

Ooh, you're in a capsule.

260

You're not in a coffin.

261

You're not in a fucking death trap, right?

262

right they're glamorizing the fact that you can't sit up in your own bed right

263

and there's these viral videos online of all the fucking brain dead influencers doing capsule hotel reviews

264

it's just a hostel that's all it is it's like a cleaner hostel anyways

265

it's besides the point this is a hostel it doesn't brand itself as a capsule hotel but it's behind a socks

266

Shrine, or at least it was two years ago.

267

If you wake up, if you still have jet lag, you've just landed in Japan, you have jet lag, you know, you wake up 4 .30,

268

five o 'clock in the morning, go to Osaka Shrine.

269

It's like a five minute walk from this hostel.

270

I can't remember the name.

271

I'm not going to look it up, but I think I found it on Hostel World.

272

But guys, that is the way to experience Tokyo.

273

That is the way to experience Kyoto.

274

Wake your ass up early.

275

I don't care how how many beers you had last night.

276

You're only in Japan 12 days.

277

Get your ass out of bed and go see some cool shit.

278

Yes, you will be exhausted, but your future self will thank you, okay?

279

If you dare go to Tokyo, if you dare, all right?

280

I know a lot of you will go.

281

Statistically speaking, a lot of my viewers will enjoy Tokyo.

282

I understand.

283

I've had some good times in Tokyo myself, you know?

284

I really have but you just gotta just get way more crafty with getting off the beaten path

285

and you know what in a lot of these places they're not going to be pumped to see you like

286

if you're in umeda in osaka or

287

if you're in fucking uh you know in shibuya at shibuya crossing

288

you think those motherfuckers those japanese people working

289

there are going to be excited to see you do you think

290

they care where you're from do you think they find you interesting whatsoever they don't you're it's just there's

291

so many people it's turned into like india right i know

292

that's that's that's fucking sacrilege to say on this podcast

293

and i apologize i really do

294

but people just see you as a wallet like you're you're you're a business uh opportunity right

295

and i'm not saying you're gonna get scammed

296

or hounded by by touts unless they're you know you get scammed by the nigerians in roppongue that's another story

297

or in um in amemuda in osaka there's some some sheisty uh club barkers

298

i think they're called barkers where they they try to get

299

you to come into their club promoters whatever um i'm not saying that's going to happen in shibuya crossing

300

but you realize like there's just

301

so many people they can't care about you they can't find interest in you you are just a number right

302

and everywhere is crowded and all the menus are in english guys

303

if you see a menu in english look i get

304

it you don't always want to challenge yourself trust me

305

I know I've had Japanese curry five times in the last nine days okay

306

I understand we are creatures of habit

307

and we want to be you know have predictable feeding schedules

308

and know that the food's going to be good

309

and maybe you don't want to always eat adventurously I get

310

it okay I understand this is the guy I'm the guy

311

that had McDonald's three times a day five days a week in China okay

312

I understand not wanting to challenge yourself but just every now

313

and then just go into like a little smoky yakitori place right maybe not in tokyo man maybe

314

i don't know or just find a neighborhood in tokyo

315

that is less well trodden is the best way i can put

316

it find like a boutique hotel just kind of out of

317

town like don't stay in shibuya man staying in shibuya is not the move yes it's very convenient

318

but in tokyo the cost of convenience is just motherfuckers all over you man

319

Like on the train, me and Egan today from Hachinohe took the train and, you know, we started kind of far out like in Saitama,

320

took the Shinkansen to Saitama, took a local train from Saitama to Shibuya.

321

And as we're going from Saitama, or yeah, Saitama, like northwest of Tokyo, as we're going from there,

322

the train is just getting more and more and more

323

and more crowded until the point where I'm like doing one of these things where I'm like oh, I'm sorry, man spread with my wide shoulders.

324

Like, I don't know what to do.

325

It's like my social anxiety just kicks in and I just feel like I'm ruining the country for everyone.

326

I just have this incredible self -loathing

327

that can only be brought to you by spending an extended period of time in Japan.

328

Guys, come to Japan so you can hate yourself and think you're always wrong in every social situation.

329

All right?

330

i don't know if i'm promoting social anxiety

331

but i sure as i'll have it

332

and especially in tokyo it is debilitating man

333

i want to die in shibuya station i want to strap a bomb to myself

334

and blow up shinjuku station japanese government

335

i'm not going to do this this is for comedic purposes okay i'm just playing around

336

but i just i don't like it it's just not for me

337

so again if you must come to Tokyo do it I guess

338

but again guys like if you're going for Japan

339

if you're going to Japan for 12 13 days don't go

340

to five cities man don't go to Osaka two days Tokyo two days like pick your fucking battles man

341

you don't have to see it all you really don't

342

you could go to Osaka for six days go to Tokyo for six days right again

343

I you know I'm not promoting Tokyo but I I'm for sure not promoting this like incredibly fast -paced travel right

344

i don't know man what the fuck do i know

345

i mean the more i travel the more i realize the less i know

346

so i i really you know who the fuck am i to even say

347

but i just you know i took tokyo it's just

348

it's in all the rap songs

349

it's in you know the culture everybody talks about it it's in the you know cultural zeitgeist in the west

350

we're obsessed with tokyo it's this glamorous place

351

and i just i just don't get

352

it man like the regular japanese salary man you know you'll see it on the train

353

when you come here aside from all the sightseeing and drinking and clubbing you'll do when you come here.

354

Those little moments on the train, you see the salaryman just hanging out on his flip phone,

355

just like fucking looking at tits or whatever, like reading manga.

356

Like that's the Japanese experience.

357

It's not like a glamorous place.

358

I mean, I guess Shibuya is, we saw some

359

Rolls Royces and we saw some folks doing some strange like Lamborghini street choreography.

360

I don't know if that's the only way I can put it.

361

Like this guy was like driving down the street, revving his engine, the cop would come up and yell at him,

362

and then he would kind of go off and then slowly creep, and the cop would creep behind him.

363

It was like a weird kind of like feng shui tai chi dance that they were doing.

364

It wasn't a high -speed chase, but it was like, I have no idea what's going on.

365

Japan is just a fucking enigma.

366

But again, guys, those moments that you bring home with you are not going to be those peak experiences of,

367

oh, we did shibuya crossing we did this oh look at my instagram reel of us doing shibuya crossing

368

first of all don't say you're doing it okay it's never done

369

it's never accomplished it's never fucking checked off okay

370

that's not how you should view life you should view life as a collection of unique experiences

371

that you're you know cataloging for when you're old

372

and you can't walk anymore

373

and you have this amazing library of memories

374

that's what it's for it's not for like oh

375

we did this look at my fucking reel right

376

it's for those small moments on the train where you you

377

see the old japanese lady kind of you know creep on board slowly with little walker

378

and then you see like uh you know a japanese man give up his seat for her

379

and you're like oh wow what a considerate society

380

or you see everyone waiting at the the crosswalk right it's these moments

381

that you're going to take with you these are the special nuggets of life

382

that make travel special it's not shibuya crossing okay

383

i i spoiler alert it's not that's not it that's not

384

it it's cool to show your friends maybe put it in a scrapbook right for the memes

385

but again i just don't think

386

that's what it is you go to japan for those small moments you know me

387

and egan today were on the train uh from

388

or yesterday from tokyo to hachinohi so it's three hours give or take on the train

389

and you know it's getting really rural right and it was actually

390

so rural they didn't take our suika cards we had to get a physical uh you know a little ticket

391

so we get the ticket to the train whatever the fuck the conductor

392

or whoever the fuck i don't know station master i'm not sure

393

we hop on the train and you know in in uh shinjuku or like the chuo line in tokyo

394

those those lines of those trains have i don't know 10 15 16 cars right going all at once right

395

it's a collection of more than 10 trains at least

396

but here it was two hachinohe was two dog it was two

397

and had a kerosene engine i think

398

or it's like some kind of oil it was burning diesel i'm not sure

399

but it was a very rustic you know

400

and it's like those moments were like wow i didn't know

401

this was here wow you know i've been in japan plenty of times and

402

but stuff like that still surprises me

403

and that's why i keep coming back

404

it's not for these like amazing instagramable moments it's really it's like quirky like oh wow i didn't know

405

that like that's so interesting

406

or like you have a conversation with somebody's like oh yeah you know my my mom's half filipino

407

and my dad's japanese

408

and oh yeah we go to mass every sunday in japan

409

i'm like holy shit like this is uh just there's just a whole collection of experiences to be had here

410

and it's just a shame being in Tokyo seeing all these

411

mindless drones just doing what Instagram told them to do right anytime

412

you see a restaurant in Japan on Google rated like 4 .8 4 .9 do not go

413

it's all tourist reviews they cater to tourists it's going to be kitschy

414

it's going to be overpriced it's not going to be

415

that good you want to go somewhere this is a travel hack

416

you want to go somewhere with like between 3 .2 to like 4 .2 at the most 4 .2 stars

417

because anything above that's going to be have the white person

418

inflation rate the japanese are very harsh very critical of their restaurants daisuke the guy

419

i worked at his ramen shop i think he had like a 3 .9

420

and that was like astonishingly good so anything above

421

that just be very very cautious but you know you go on google maps

422

and all these restaurants fucking oh amazing best food I've ever had.

423

I want that real shit, man.

424

I want the real actual critique of the restaurant.

425

I, dude, I, Japanese people are so savage.

426

I saw reviews for restaurants that were actually glowing.

427

They were like, actually, you know, this is amazing food.

428

It's great.

429

And I was a little far out of the way.

430

Um, you know, the interior could be nicer, two stars, right?

431

And again, that's starting with the premise of this food is delicious.

432

I love this place.

433

I would come back two stars.

434

That's how savage they are.

435

Okay.

436

So stay away from all these fucking places, five stars you know it's don't don't be fooled don't be fooled is what i'm getting at

437

and don't be fooled into coming to tokyo

438

and feeling like you have to have a canned generic experience

439

if you want that if you want to do it

440

but don't feel the pressure from instagram or me

441

or from anybody to have any kind of you have your experience all right

442

that's why you travel that's why you come to japan look

443

if if you're here for 10 11 12 days you have a limited time you have to choose wisely right

444

so don't just take my word for it don't fucking follow

445

whoever the fuck big titty instagram girl going to shibuya crossing

446

because you you think you'll be cool like her

447

because you won't be you're going to be fucking lame going to shibuya crossing dude

448

i was in a taxi the other day

449

and we just got caught by the red light at shibuya crossing right

450

so we're at the front of the line

451

and i just see the madness unfold

452

i see you know everybody with their selfie six getting ready the light turns green

453

they all go right it's just

454

this weird like what are you even filming really like what is this like you're all tourists

455

this isn't like a special japanese experience by any means like

456

i'd say more than half of the people are tourists

457

and by the way the light turns red for the for

458

the for the brain dead fucks to stop walking across the sidewalk

459

or the the crosswalk and they continue doing it

460

and there's there's jaywalkers everywhere

461

so they've come all this way to japan to have a japanese experience

462

and then don't even interact with japanese people

463

and then are not even obeying the rules of japan right

464

i think this is why foreigners are getting such a bad rap in japan right now is

465

because they don't want to follow the rules they're loud

466

they don't want to learn any of the culture you know

467

it's just i think i'm becoming a racist against my own kind against the foreigners in japan you know the southeast Asians, they're good, humble people.

468

They come here to learn, they come here to make money, right?

469

And Japanese, uh, you know, the government, the people, the society, they need workers to come in and,

470

and, you know, kind of fill those gaps in the workforce that are happening from the, you know, aging society.

471

But us, the whites, what the fuck are we contributing other than money?

472

Literally, what are we, I mean, I guess you could say

473

I'm like promoting some kind of alternative travel in japan to like get outside the city

474

i guess that's like a you know possibly a net positive

475

but you know before i was youtuber

476

i was still just a mindless fuck here

477

i was just like getting hammered

478

you know passing out on the curb just uh didn't bother to learn the culture

479

or the language for a long time actually i was adamant

480

when i came here to not learn it i was like i don't need

481

it i'll figure it out i mean i did figure it out

482

but that was by studying and fucking writing out my haragana every day

483

so i don't know long story short guys just stay away from tokyo it's not worth it

484

or you know go to the outskirts go to like some quiet little sleepy villages

485

or you know at least sight them i just get out just get out

486

there man like it's not worth the convenience

487

because the convenience comes at a heavy price of your mental health

488

and your personal space and uh you just can't feel like the main character

489

and i guess when i travel i just i I just want to feel like a character, honestly, if I'm being completely transparent.

490

I want to feel special.

491

And you will not be special if you come to Tokyo.

492

You will be a drone.

493

You will be a cog in the machine.

494

You will be a brain -dead piggy.

495

So just stay away.

496

All right, see you in the next one.

497

Bye -bye.

ما هي تقنية التظليل الصوتي؟

التظليل الصوتي (Shadowing) تقنية تعلم لغة مدعومة علمياً، طُورت أصلاً لتدريب المترجمين الفوريين المحترفين. الطريقة بسيطة لكنها قوية: تستمع لصوت إنجليزي أصلي وتكرره فوراً بصوت عالٍ — كظل يتبع المتحدث بتأخير 1-2 ثانية. تُظهر الأبحاث تحسناً كبيراً في دقة النطق والتنغيم والإيقاع وربط الأصوات والاستماع والطلاقة.
