0:51 every year at least once and so I've always been living I kind of like understood like okay there's American way of life and then there's uh the Asian way of life and then when I was 19 I went with my friends to Mexico for the first time and we drove past the border and you know you there's so many Mexicans here you just feel like oh cool Mexico is probably like an extension of America or whatever and people go to like Tijuana Rosarito it's it's probably just like I don't know like a big San Diego or something like that and I remember driving through in the middle of the night and uh must have been like maybe 11:00 p.m. 12 it's like pitch black and it's you're on a kind of like a dirt road I remember getting pulled over by a police truck and there's like
1:41 four cops in the back and they have AKs they come out and then they're like you guys are speeding and we're like oh sorry sir and all four of us were Marines and we're like oh no we're I'm sorry we we wouldn't have been because we respect that we're in a different country we're sort of following all the speed limits or whatever they search all of our ████ and they're like no you guys are speeding we're going to have to take you back to the police station we like what the ████ and then they're like well how much money you guys have mhm and then so we're like what what do you mean he goes cuz if there's enough we could probably just like you know just turn a blind eye so we're like ████ scouching up cash or whatever and then we gave it to him go was like all right uh slow down and then I remember going like did we just ████ get jacked by cops what the ████ is this and I remember so we still went down to Rosarito had a good time whatever and when we came back when we passed the
2:31 like welcome to United States like Customs ████ thing I remember going yeah oh my God I was like cuz I'm like if that could happen what else could ████ oh if you can get Jack from cops and then in Rosarito um I saw a cop on a ████ horse at like 4:00 a.m. painted like a zebra there's a there's a ████ chick yeah there's a ████ uh a a drunk dude drunk girl ████ Ola what you doing and they're ████ like flirting or whatever the ████ cop Coes up with the horse knocks the guy over and just starts flirting with the chick that's sick I'm just like this place is ████ crazy I need to get the ████ out of here and when I came back it felt like I want to just like I ████ love
3:22 California K some yeah yeah yeah Gavin I'm like as much ████ as we have here I'll never recall you again it's different than when you go to another country and there's no order it's like what the f yeah yeah it's ████ I couldn't believe it dude I went to to ████ Hawaii right get off the plane they put this fuzzy necklace on you and I was like what the heck fuzzy necklace that was the craziest damn thing we ain't need America no more boys I was like whoa what's happening go check what was your Czech culture shop uh the uh it was when me and Mike song went to a dance camp in the Czech Republic and it was just in some secluded ass place you know far away from like the regular City and then uh
4:14 they had an Afterparty at this Camp right which was basically just the little bar at this like c community center or whatever so we went there and people started eating drunk and then in the middle of it they ████ turn off the lights while the music is blasting and it's just dark I'm talking small room it's just black next thing you know when we saw somebody open the door for a second a flashlight came in half the people were just making out things were going crazy and then next thing you know these these young kids students at the camps are grabbing me and Mike right to you know do some stuff and we're like no like no we can't do that they're like why they looked at us like we were ████ being disrespectful like you don't want to kiss me fool yeah it was literally like that we're like no but they're like 12 and ████ or what we like how old are you they're like 14 we're like no dude what the heck and but here's the crazy European girls look super developed compared to like you
5:04 know us Asian counterparts if you will so it's really hard to tell how old they are so you still got asking like 14 and they're like or no they said they were 15 or 16 whatever right like7 18 19 whatever yeah 20131 no no we we we're like too old they're like why and then they looked at us and we were so confused they're like they're like you don't think I'm pretty the legal age for consensual sex in in in Czech Republic is 14 oh went oh well how about that ████ stepen Hawkins come through what's up D and then did you throw the imaginal imaginary lasso on excuse me you well I guess I do partake well I never been want to sh away from some culture prob be it for me to be a snob
5:54 in another country not me sir not no no no not well how damn God damn then he just starts talking when in Rome like well those Americans well we didn't know nothing about that it's like a Looney Tunes moment he's a southern B that's crazy no but it was just such a trip because it's like if that's your rules you're like whoa so I didn't want to be disect but like because it's not our rules it don't work it just doesn't work so me you can make it work man you can make it work Anthony baby some people got different thresholds I mean how are we talking about yeah that's when you start you know you start really taking a good look in the mirror you know jeez I like the 3 two one Darkness like they all knew what to do crazy they're like you pick your guy
6:44 wow I mean that's crazy if you went to another state where the age is 16 that would still be weird yeah could happen domestically a 14 I mean imagine going to Tennessee and then the lights turn off and everyone's ████ the donkeys and ████ that's and they're like what's wrong our aren't good enough my donk is 12 what the ████ don't want to be one sh around from culture a 3 two one that's ████ crazy though holy ████ an's lived many lives yeah what did you guys do go back to the hotel room and go like what the how did you and Mike talk about it afterwards yeah we were so mind blown that we were like silent as we're walking back to our room because again it wasn't like dude what you had that was weird it was like a damn we don't know this world you know what I mean you just felt so displaced
7:34 cuz it's already one thing for us to be like the Asian dudes in like Europe it's like very clear like these ████ Ching chongs are walking around our area you know what I mean what if afterwards they're like they were gay yeah probably you know they're like there's nothing wrong with you girl those girls are probably cing afterwards like they didn't think we were hot there's something for gay guys like that too yeah and also it really just depends on your threshold like at the same time like some other teachers at the camp you know oh probably like the last teachers were fine with it oh it happens you never know happens mine was in Thailand I was about 13 or 14 and it was the first time seeing child soldiers and that was like the biggest eye opener cuz we were in a Mong Village two three hours away from Chang Ma and uh that area too A lot of the
8:24 Mong tribes the only way they made money was through heroin like growing poppies and then like the drug lord would come collect them and when I say drug lord we're just talking about normal people They didn't have an economy so they would come through get the hero uh poppy ████ and then they would just leave bring like fruits and bananas like it's a normal transaction right so it's not like a general with a eye patch or something no it's not gangster at all so it's just an unarmed Village that does all that right and I guess they heard across the border there's Burma they have like militia groups and terrorist groups there and they heard that missionaries were in the village so they came through it was like you know in Mexico you see like the police like in the back of a pickup truck with guns so we saw like a couple of those roll in the village and they're like hide you guys got to hide and then so we went in and we're just looking outside from like the house oh ████ and there were all
9:15 these kids that were like our age Junior High age with like some adults and they were just holding like guns like AKs all that and some of them it was like as tall as they were they were just holding it and we're just looking like what the ████ this is crazy and then the Village leader came out they broke her out a deal they paid him off and then some of the kids just stuck around like people were trying to go in the bathroom and they're just like trying to do like Peep and Tom ████ they were like normal kids laughing looking at us waving at us but they just had ████ guns what did you guys think at that time were you guys thinking like holy ████ this could have been my life I I was shocked I was like what the ████ this is crazy and like later on in life I understood what a Child Soldier was but I was like why the ████ do all these kids my age have guns and then they got back in the truck and they told us later like yeah that was just um like a you know like those
10:05 groups and then they had a broker a deal and God saved us and this and that I was like d Jesus dude yeah that was the craziest but I was at the me and Nikki went to the Bahamas right and we were staying at the Atlantis over there and the guy who like when we were getting checked in he was like you absolutely have to try there's one dish like make sure you get it while you're here and so I ordered it and it's like it's like shrimp right but then they cover it with like deep fried coconut flakes oh yeah and I was like oh dude I am in another country so ████ you and you in these bumpers between stories talking about my cult talking about cult experiences he went from chicken nuggets culture shock I'm talking about culture sh he went from chicken nuggets to coconut shrimp dude to be fair I mean look at him yeah come on it's probably a you know you know the
10:56 saddest ████ though i' be seeing people in Vegas and that's exactly I know exactly the they save ████ so many years they're like from Kansas and then they go to Vegas and then they go to PF chains and they're like Chinese food that's exotic they want us to eat with two sticks over here can I get a spoon please and they're like we're staying at the the ████ pyramid one oh my god well when you see that kind of cult holy ████ you see how they lived you see how they liveed I was recently Kyoto and like only the white people were dressed up in kimonos and stuff yeah dude that's dope that's dope I was like yo they're in there's probably hella Chinese but you just can't tell cuz they look the same that's racist I don't like I didn't like that that's one of my dreams is going to China and getting orange chicken like
11:46 real orange chicken you probably can't even find it just called chicken there oh is that what it is okay I was in Beijing and I was like where's the beiging beef what the ████ yeah yeah yeah I'm going to do that beef I'm do both of those things oh uh one shock was when I went to Paris I didn't realize how ████ filthy it was when I was on the way there it was worse than Skid Row there's nothing but like bums and Tents and like hella ████ like whole parks of just refugees Paris is dirty that's an actual syndrome though isn't it Paris syndrome oh really what's Paris syndrome it's like tourists that had dreams of coming to Paris and they saved up their money and then they get there and it's almost like a System Shock to them that they have to go to the hospital yeah because it's so not like what they imagine because it's so not and they spent 9 GS I go to the hospital cuz I spent N9 GS and it was a real thing a
12:37 lot of Chinese tourists were getting hospitalized for that yeah what the ████ they should go to China see how s█████ that place is Ja it's Japanese tourist it was Japanese tours cuz you know how clean Japan is and if it's your first trip you just don't understand how dirty some place can be so they're like going around Paris and they're crying cuz it's ████ like hysterically crying God so interesting that reminds me of a I just saw something on Twitter you probably saw us too I think our algorithm's like dead on the same um this chick was in Paris and she's like just talking to herself on camera but she puts it up right and she's talking about how she came to Paris and she thought it was going to be all great and like it's very lonely there and everyone's really mean to her and like it's really sucks here and I wouldn't recommend coming here like same ████ there's that one black kid he was like going around the streets
13:28 hey y'all Paris is ████ or like he was talking all that ████ it was so ████ Creator did that too oh Tyler was the best he dunked over was talking ████ on talking on it that's funny I love Paris but I also know when I go there it's going to ████ smell and look like ████ half the time but like the things that you enjoy about or things that you do romanticize about still cool still there but also like if you've met someone from Paris that lives here now they'll say the same ████ because then you're you're kind of they complain about per The Way We complain about Cali yeah Nick where you been I'm trying to think of the time where I've been most culture shocked but it's like probably Singapore when I was a kid and I saw him eat some diran and I was like you guys eat this ████ I really what a Steve dude you guys eat this ████ smells like ████ gasoline yeah let them know what it smells like probably
14:19 it was when I was in Al Salvador El Salvador or Bali cuz like it's different when you see like third world poverty and ████ you know like when you're in it and just driving around and you're like oh yeah pave roads is a luxury yeah yeah yeah yeah being able to drive your car through the dirt and to be able to make it through is like a luxury like this ████ really needs to happen and you see it like in El Salvador when I was there for a short period of time you just see everyone has a hustle everyone's selling bread People are cleaning clothes for their neighbors so they could get $11 by the end of like two weeks you know like everyone's just hustling everyone's just driving around and then the way they looked at me when I was at the uh cuz I was in like a smaller town um and there's obviously not that many Asian people if there any nearby but as soon
15:10 as I was walking around with like our family they would always be like they they'd be like gra like look at the Cheeto yo what the ████ like that's definitely a trip no matter where you go like but you kind of look indigenous you could pass for no for sure but they saw they knew but they were like that is a Chino it just smelled they knew something was up and they just kept being like hey yo come to my stand like come check out what I'm selling like do they look at you as a cash or like more like a um or more like a chinoo kind of but because I was with people who are local to that area it was like kind of fine and it was like it was more like more jokey and less uh like I didn't I didn't actually feel scared if I was by myself I might have been like yo what the ████ is this but because you know you're with locals is fine but probably that man like cuz I've been to
16:00 well I actually haven't been to that many places I don't think about it besides like Central America and freaking Asia that's about it you've been to San Marino I want to go to Central America dude your trip looks so fun it's all the street food all that ████ you guys were that ████ was great bro yeah Bali was crazy too but it's I think it's very similar that way too where you see how crazy the roads are and you see how packed everything is everyone's on these little mopeds and you're like oh well yeah this is nothing like this nothing like La there nothing like California this is whack but I went on a cruise to Mexico many years ago with Nikki and hang on hang on hang on all right so we get to Mexico right and as soon as we're in Mexico I went up to cuz they had this like huge buffet in the Carnival Cruise or whatever and I went up to the guy and I was like hey can I get a pizza and
16:50 he's like yeah sure and I was like technically isn't that now a Mexican pizza and I went and and then the guy didn't even laugh he's like okay sure I did something stupid like that when I booked the cruise for the JK trip I thought it was going to be a three Mexican city tour and then the first one was at uh Santa Barbara Oh yeah and when we stopped at Santa Barbara I was like what the ████ this is not Mexico I mean that's a culture shock in a different way I thought the first stop was going to be Santa Barbara California I mean and then maybe when you read the broch show you were like oh Santa Sant yeah cuz it was like in Sant something else like oh cool hell yeah I know those that's what I thought was going to go on yeah Santa Barbara and I
17:40 was like what the ████ dude I've been here before I remember getting culture shock the other way in Japan though going like oh yeah like oh ████ we can get our ████ together if we wanted to oh like a positive shot yeah just like you go to any public area everyone's ████ on the right side that's true ████ everyone gets in line no trash on the floor like people like they don't want to inconvenience each other you're like dude like we could actually be organized if we wanted to but we just we were all just if we were all just one race I just I just came back from Japan with Nina for the first time she was just tripping about all that stuff so that was a huge cold shock for her like why is it so different yeah and I was like dude this here's the difference in America everyone's a main character in Japan everybody's just part of the movie you know what I mean for the good of the
18:30 nation man yeah okay actual answer now at last I was uh in Singapore teaching like uh you know like screenwriting stuff to like um students part of part of this program it really cool they were really awesome but I started to like you know I was doing like I don't know anti-government bits and they were like really seriously like hey dude you can't you can't do that here like you cannot do that here and they were like dead ass serious and I was like oh ████ like I am truly in some serious ████ like damn I thought I had a freedom of speech cuz back in our government we could do anti-government ████ yeah we could duck all over them as much as we want kind of and then what happened what is it what happened after that well then I had some Singapore and chicken nuggets and uh they were very good and I had them with mustard there's the
19:21 kicker how about that
