The idea is to it's to not start a different religion, but it's to basically just unify. So it's it's not denomination. Yeah. Yeah. Like like an idea of like one family under God. It's not like you can have your own beliefs and stuff, but like essentially at the end we want to

11:06 unite. I like that. That sounds good. Do this. Yeah. Do you guys do that in Macau? My friend and so that's a real thing. You guys do that like right when they sit down in class. I did to my friend and she got so mad. The girls do it to each other. Okay. Yeah. Maybe the guys. It's usually the guys that are unannounced, you know. Yeah. We very girls Barbies growing up, you know. I wrestled growing up. You wrestled. I freaking thought only Japanese people did that. Japanese people think only Japanese do everything. But is a Japanese word. Macau is very influenced by Japan. I think. Okay. Everywhere loves culture food like we got so much sushi like a lot of the Japanese. How do you know koncho? He's like that's that's my friend.

11:57 That's my thing. That was my thing with my friend. You're not special. And when you conchoed her. Yeah. She was so mad. I did the wrong Yeah. Oh, that makes it so much funnier. It was that time of the month. No. Asian Asian girls are very like No. One time I be loud for the the our classmates and we're the Philipp the loud ones. We always get yelled at by bus drivers. Why are you pointing at me? I'm sorry. I get it. And teachers would put us apart cuz they know they know that we shut up class clown. So you you were loud. You guys considered yourselves louder than like other kids that were just straight up Chinese. Yeah. I mean growing up for us at least. Don't the the Chinese that are loud that it would be like in the bus like those uncles on the phone.

12:49 Younger people are not here. Younger people. Why is that? Like we'll be in the sauna and a ████ old Chinese uncle will come in and go and then we're just like looking at each other. What the ████ Yo, it's peaceful. We got a ████ dude trying to get into a zen zone. Zenzone pulls it out the water. Yeah, literally. And then dude, and then the Mexicans, they're the funniest. They'll be looking at each other like this ████ chino. What the ████ Yeah. And then I'm just like, I know you're looking at me like I'm one of them. And I'm like, bro, I ████ No, dude. Stop. [Laughter] Yeah. I don't know why. Yeah. I don't

13:39 know why it's so loud. I love it though. I think it's hilarious. Kacho. No, the the loudness. The the the the Cantonese uncle. I think it's funny. Auntie like I'm so used to it. White noise now. I can't sleep without it. I do remember uh when Gio was my wife when she first um ate with my dad's side of the family. She was like, "Is everything okay? Fighting a lot." Yelling. Everything's just like yelling. Yes. Yes. Like are they fighting? Why is the entire restaurant fighting? Every table's having an argument right now. They're just they're just they're just No, it's like the Portuguese in in Macau. They would like be like, "Okay, no." But then it's like they sound so serious. It's like what are they talking about right now? It's so serious. Like they're just chatting. Is there really a

14:29 lot of Portuguese people? There used to be now less like Portuguese speaking, but but they're clicks. they would like only show up some spots, you know, so you wouldn't like There's a there's a different language in because of Portuguese Chinese mix. It's called PWA. Pwa. And it's a mix of Chinese and Portuguese, but it's kind of extinct now, I think. Oh, Pua. Only the older grandmas speak Pua. Pua. Wow. Yeah. Sounds right. I think it's like some Jamaicans. Jamaican. We We found out that Jamaicans like have a lot of like Cantonese there. Like I met one of my like f one of the first co-workers I met like we were at a restaurant with my boss and then uh I was like kind of a lichi martini and then the the waitress like do you mean lichi I'm like ly but then like the the the the girl she's like she's Jamaican she's like uh it's lchi and I'm like hey

15:20 and then cuz she has a Cantonese grandma. I was like what tongs over there the Caribbean's just Cantonese. It's weird to us. Yes. And like Peruvian, there's cha fried rice. Ta. Bunch of Chinese people were This guy's Peruvian. Yo, are Peruvian? You're Peruvian? E. That is so cool. But that's my my my dad. Yeah. Yeah. My dad, my great grandpa went to Peru and then brought back a wife from Peru. He kidnapped an indigenous woman. Like mostly Peruvian food is like a fusion of chang. Yeah. Why was there a group like why was there a lot of or why is there a lot of Yeah, they're everywhere in the world. That makes sense. They're everywhere like a virus. Even Philippines, they're all Chinese though. They're also in the Philippines,

16:10 huh? Thailand, too. They're all buying up like um you know. Oh, dude. Africa. That's a new type. Yeah. Yeah. Good job, China. Good for us. Good job, too. Yeah. Good job. You too. Stop China, dude. Can't stop. Also, I think every country in the world has a Chinese restaurant. I would hope so. That's a safe word. And a Chinatown. Yeah, there's a brave China that went there to open up a Kungpow chicken spot with the flag down. I respect that a lot. Like, you go to a little mountain village here and there's a Chinese restaurant. It's pretty cool. Like, wow, you found this spot. They hustle and you dedicated your life to this. Like, damn. Like, when you go to Big Bear, there's like one Chinese restaurant. That's true. One Japanese one. And that's like their whole family revolves around just being on that mountain. And then they run both of them. Act like the other one.

17:00 Oh, welcome. Let me guess. Let me get California roll. How'd you know? Yeah. I ate a big barrel roll. Oh, you did? You ate it? No, I hate I don't like it cuz there's no I I like raw fish and there's no raw fish. You don't like that it's like almost like they're covering raw fish. Oh yeah. No, I don't like it. But we have California rolls in Macau. Like it's called California. I do hate California rolls and Philly rolls. I love Philly rolls. It's a filler sushi. I do like Philly rolls. Why? I don't like it. Get out of here. It own thing though. Philly rolls it. Respect. If you like it, cool. Without that without those rolls, you wouldn't get people into actual sushi cuz it's it's the gate. You mean you wouldn't get these people down here? [Applause]

17:50 You tell them. Yeah. It's the gateway. Don't teach the guo. Hey, guo. Get out. You know how you sneak them in? Go California roll, then Philly roll, then you get like lobster roll and then you get into soft shell crab roll and baked salmon roll and then you get slowly into the and then finally you hit sushi. Oh my god. Oh, Macas is number at the bottom. That's advanced level. Yeah, there's a whole rhythm to it.
