0:00 thank you [Music] welcome back to another strange episode of careful boys today we have with us Walter Hong hey I would also have Ken Nick Colleen myself no more Joe or Anthony yeah sadly where's Anthony he's not feeling well so hopefully um he uh he makes it through because he's sick yeah yeah send your wishes to Anthony wish him a good recovery yeah today's episode is gonna be all about Texas what do we know about Texas what do we think about Texas what's your favorite Texas city it's big you lived in Houston for well nope San Antonio no uh Austin yes yeah that's not wealthy City it was pretty cool I I like visiting Austin yeah I do
0:51 know Joe Rogan not personally were you out there during the time he was no I was there in 2019 yeah what do you think of the owner of Whole Foods lives in Austin oh really yeah uh what who else is out there Dell the person like Dell yeah the big you know anyway uh I was there for only like three months and uh I actually didn't live in downtown Austin which is actually my favorite area because there's a lot more things going on but when you live out in like the suburbs it sucks dude oh it does yeah it sucks because you have to drive like 20 minutes just to get to a grocery store or like anywhere because you're just Suburban grocery stores no so it there is but you have to drive like far oh like to get there like I can't just walk there you know because you're just yeah or take a horse yeah because people ride horses like casually out there just
1:41 uh not where I was no uh straight up like neighborhood if you go to the next thing neighborhood I'm not even kidding I probably was actually how did that make you feel there um it was whatever I'm not I'm not like a stranger to that because when I grew up I was like pretty much the only Asian around like a bunch of non-asians yeah but um yeah that's the main thing it's just so much space which is it could be nice depending on how you uh for the horses yeah what are some of the uh what are some of the things that that Texas has over Cali in your opinion um space okay um everything's cheaper there um but now I heard it's like kind of like getting up there in price in terms of like food whatever uh no because they
2:35 keep going over there it could be I don't know I don't know honestly the economics of it but um yeah it's like similarly priced gas is cheaper um what else um the food kind is like all right I do like Tex-Mex actually that was like one of my favorite things because that's what was different about their versus here because we don't have Tex-Mex here we have like Applebee's does Apple babies yeah but it's not good let's stop being around the bush yeah tell us tell us a thing we really want to know what do you want to not the guys yeah tell us we gotta know I wanna know I do want to know Colleen want to know that's a tough one man I don't know are you uh are you into tall dudes I don't know I like how you says are you what kind of question is that dude like Rich
3:25 guys because everybody there is like you like model guys because no because you're not in Texas everything's bigger so like people there are bigger things bigger even even like because there's Asian girl dogs are bigger than girls yeah a little more petite but over there they eat good so they're like they're bigger yeah but not like you know it's it's whatever not like what okay yeah yeah like what they're like but yeah like when you say bigger like are you saying like fatter or like just thicker they just look like like healthy yeah it's bigger I think it's because the portions there are so big even oh yeah so I tried fun Austin yeah it's it's not as good you're
4:17 telling me it's not as good as sgv oh dude SUV actually SUV's okay too who's making it it's Vietnamese people oh it is actually it's actual Vietnamese people because there's a lot of oh yeah that's another thing there's a lot of Vietnamese people in Texas for some reason oh I'm sure is that a pro or con for you huh sorry to hear that so it's neutral it's not a problem it's a matter of fact I think it's cool my condolences they're just there other videos where you mad when you got off the plane and just saw more Vietnamese people no he was like I was trying to get away from this yeah so did the plane make it yeah disappointed baby did you follow any of the sports teams out there like the Texans the Cowboys so fun fact I went to my first tailgate in when I moved to Austin for like college sports yeah it was for uh
5:07 what is it UT yeah yeah it was huge University of Texas it was huge you could hear the crowd from like miles away from the stadium and uh there was like uh bands playing there was like a lot of things going on but I asked my friend what is the tailgate and he said oh you'll see and I'm like okay so I show up there literally every tent everybody's setup is music drinks and barely any food it's like mostly drinks so no food so no big portions of the tailgates no is that something that tailgating like so Essie if you ever go to a USC tailgate um basically like 90 000 people watch the game they go to Coliseum prior to that there's also an additional 30 000 that just show up the tailgate and they'll have like satellite TV or whatever and they'll just set up a TV they'll like barbecues like beers you
5:58 know like margaritas and all that it's a whole thing and when you go to somebody's uh college campuses that have nothing around there but the college campus then it becomes a huge like Affair like all day yeah yeah yeah yeah all day just drunk the whole day yeah and I was like wow this is pretty interesting definitely not something I would go to again because it's not really my thing I don't watch football I don't drink that much would you would you give Texas Another Chance by trying another city maybe going to Dallas or no because no no I would not because I've been to Texas quite a bit um because I have friends that live in Dallas and I actually stayed in Dallas for like a few weeks just because and I've also been in the small cities next to Dallas because I stayed in the city and outside of the city in Dallas and in
6:49 Austin and then I've also been to Houston so it's kind of like very similar but obviously it's all different but like the vibe is kind of similar this it's just so much emptiness so it's very good when you were there no I did not maybe you're not you didn't fulfill the whole Texas experience I think I had uh Black's Barbecue I had do you like blacks Everyone likes blacks yeah it was good yeah [Laughter] oh ribeye they did have that yeah added blacks uh no okay how would you rate the average Texan
7:41 like person you mean to person interaction man they're cool they're super nice nicer than people here right I mean you could find ████ there you can find ████ I don't think stop being so neutral bro what is it is what's your favorite it is vanilla sometimes sometimes it's Rocky Road come on do you agree do you agree generally generally with their politics like as a whole Texas you know they're like dude you want a neutral answer a little bit different than Cali you know huh a little bit but I didn't really talk to people about politics when I was there um oh you speak Vietnamese let me turns away you know what was interesting I actually got to know the dance community in Austin and they were super
8:32 cool it was very are they creative in Austin for dance because it's such a creative City and they're super creative a little more creative than here sometimes because I feel like you went too far too far someone's mad now yeah we didn't want him but I feel like La dancers sometimes take being in La for granted because we have so many good dancers oh yeah so they don't try as hard right because they just start copying each other yeah and then in Austin they really really want to be like oh dude I'm going to make this new thing and whatever it kind of reminds me of how when uh I started back in the day because that's how we were when we were younger but then for them it's like ongoing they're always trying to innovate and whatever I'm like dude there's actually really good dancers you know yeah but they you just don't hear about it as much unless you were in the community right I think a lot of people don't realize that in in
9:22 the breaking Community Texas played on a massive role in the early 2000s they were game changers of the whole like form and style yeah breaking tons of creative people came out of there and a lot of them were never seen again after that era yeah half my original b-boy crew from like 1999 half of them broke off and moved to Texas and they ended up in in This Crew called United b-boys which is like a massive uh Texan crew spanning like three different cities and those guys are total game changers they made up so much stuff that people in other countries are doing and don't know it started in like San Antonio yeah yeah that's oh yeah San Antonio I've never been to San Antonio but I always heard like the dancing there was pretty huge they have a large uh arena for the San Antonio Spurs it's like 30 or 40 000 which is for basketball readers that's huge so they actually have a curtain
10:13 that blocks off the extra seats oh yeah but throw that out there about San Antonio well what's your favorite uh sports team in Texas my favorite sports team in Texas um you know what I I don't um go to games but I have been to a Dallas Mavericks game because of uh Dancing Yeah Yeah they brought us for the show what year and it was like 20 20. it was like right after you see Luca huh you see Luca I don't even know who that is yes I did actually I did I did like NADA did you see Mark Cuban the owner I know I I didn't know who was who honestly but I was just like wow this is Dallas Mavericks Texas seems like it's popping
11:04 off dude I like Texas a lot oh my god I've only been to San Antonio for a fight that I had a corner but everyone like speaking of Austin everyone seems like me and my wife we watch a show called kill Tony oh yeah and uh their comedy scene over there seems really cool yeah so we're like oh that that can that would be tight yeah that would be tight to just go see your show over there yeah and then a lot of Jiu Jitsu guys are like there's a huge like Fitness Community out in uh Austin that's like blown up and you know what's dope about Austin was uh South by Southwest that was so fun that was my first time going to Austin and it's this huge festival with like music almost they block out the whole like downtown area and each bar that's a venue or a theater it's a part of it so you can have a badge and you can walk to this bar and there's
11:54 already a set playing and then you can go across the street and there's another one and it's all a part of that music festival and on top of that they have a film festival and a gaming Festival all happening in like the span of like two weeks it was insane a guy who doesn't drink you go to a lot of bars huh where a guy doesn't drink you go to a lot of them I do because I like to socialize yeah no I don't I drink not like oh yeah I want to get wasted you know yeah I like that about you yeah thanks you should try again I was back in the I was a champion what about now now no no like I can't drink too much I will happen stop being spicy bro wait hold up hold up sure yes there was
12:46 actually like a like uh my first time in Dallas was I think uh the people that brought that brought me out were like the Vietnamese Community out there and they're all nice there's a dope ass Vietnamese like VSA I think they were like mostly Club promoters and stuff oh nice yeah even cooler yeah why do you hate your old people yeah who said I hate them dude the way the vibe yeah the insinuation emanate the animated I don't think he's giving off my vibe at all have you been in Texas yeah you guys are very group thank you you want to move there you said no I think it's like uh I wanna if I had to move in anywhere right now I'd probably be that's a contender yeah it's a contender for sure all right what city would you go to I don't know pick one now why and why Corpus Christi yeah
13:39 why not you guys like Corpus Christi fans never been yeah I got called the ████ in San Antonio did you tell them oh yeah dude like racism in Atlanta more than Texas really no Texas was cool man nobody was dude it was opposite in Texas for me when I when the first time I went like I thought you were Mexican yeah that's exactly what I was thinking we performed at like a club in Dallas that was like it was like mostly like Asians and white people and like it was like they were just way cooler than Asians and white people in a club out here yeah like everybody was way more social like hello is not like an awkward thing in Most states besides here that's true like here everyone's apprehensive and they're like I don't want to bother you or I don't want to look stupid because it's like that in New York don't
14:29 they say that like people yeah walking by each other they gotta get ████ done like everyone's rushing dude imagine you said hi to everyone in New York though but even like even like the like the staff of the club was like friendly which is cool normally like here it's like you know like staff of places yeah yeah they feel you feel like they're talking because they have to yeah but then there they were just like I still talk to them today like yeah all the people that I met in Texas in 2009 are still friends of mine today and it's weird it's like not normal right yeah I think everyone outside of like the corner States yeah yeah right yeah like the Metropolitan like areas like everyone's like I don't even think they they think they're nice they're just yeah yeah that's just them you know whereas like out here I think we're ████ up yeah like they're normal like because like you're talking about high like so uh when I used to run uh
15:20 children everyone that passed I would say hi I would just be like hey hi and like I'd say about 30 40 will say hi back yeah some people get mad yeah it's like some people go like yeah that's what it is guys you're one of those people no I don't get mad I always say hi I'm trying to be quirky with it it is it feels it feels like you're intrusive or you just go [Music] see there's certain people you know that you have to go two and there's some people that you're like hey what's up you could feel it you know yeah it's one thing like just like not say hi back but it's when they try to they make
16:11 you feel stupid for saying hi yeah that's that's what they go the extra mile so like that that's what it's like that's like why we're known as unfriendly because we go the extra mile to make you feel stupid for saying hi to me yeah right and I think that's where like except it sets us apart from other states this is a funny story she was driving to uh her job on the west side of town west side of L.A which is very like how would you describe the west side of L.A it's in the west yeah but like characteristics oh they're the they're the interracial couple they're one of the interracial couple capitals really really yeah you see a lot yeah yeah yeah still interesting which is different yeah I guess stereotypes because it takes forever it takes forever and then sometimes people can be
17:01 you know head up their own butts sometimes the drivers suck yeah definitely but she was driving through the residential yeah and my wife saw a coyote on the street right and there's a lot of you know coyotes in the area it's like in the hills and ████ and then a couple blocks down she saw a lady walking her like two dogs and my wife rolls down the window and she goes there's a coyote down the street I just want to let you know the lady looks at Tiff and goes why the ████ should I care that's so ████ up that's so funny but it's so funny but it's so ████ keep going I hope your dogs get eaten yeah yeah she should have but she just was like Tiff was like oh it drives away right but like that I don't know if you get the same reaction if you were in
17:51 Texas [Laughter] and those areas are like there's a nice those are nice houses like you gotta have a nice chunk of change to live up there you know and then yeah yeah so then for her to respond that way just like so agree she could have been like okay like that's yeah that's reasonable to go out of your way and make a sentence why the ████ I feel like a Texas response would have been hey is it better for my dogs being eaten by a coyote or you oh yeah oh dude is that too much sorry oh God Texas viewers are gonna be upset I'm gonna be enraged yeah anybody have anything bad to say about Texas I didn't tell you I wish it wasn't so far yeah I would love it I wish it was a
18:41 drivable state drive over there I wish not everyone was allowed to carry guns oh why like you know if someone's like mentally unstable I don't know we can ask the other 49 states but that's been going so well for us so yeah well you know there was there was a shooting this morning where uh in downtown L.A right at a apartment thing okay great I gotta check off in a white SUV four people in critical conditions why SUV I always find that strange that like when um when when shootings like that happened in La let's say like five dudes got shot it doesn't get classified as a mass shootie which is weird because I think National is supposed to be four or more really yeah but like it's like
19:31 let's say that three guys got shot on this side and two guys got shot from that side do they not count that as like does it have to be one guy shooting a whole size is it declared a gaggle I applaud you for using couple in few properly yeah oh thank you so much you have very little faith in me oh I did not but you know I'll tell you right now Walter English I'm not gonna use a product and I say when I say a couple I mean like 50. yeah yeah you know you know what might be a good City Amarillo my favorite Amarillo yeah oh I think that might be a cool place because I don't want to go there
20:21 so bad as a kid because they have a freaking um I don't know if they still have it but they had this one restaurant where like if you can eat the whole like porterhouse steak it's like a giant I would love it it's like I forgot how many ounces it is like three or four pounds yeah I want to go to Texas I want to experience the barbecue yeah a little bit more you know what I think is incorrect there's a place in Austin right yeah yeah I'd say they're Franklin's or something there's a couple the one by South by Southwest the one that's in that area yeah weighs like six hours yeah I think that's Franklin yeah Franklin's and that's the one where Obama ate at or something like that so it's like super popular there what sucks is when you win that then I ain't going in there yeah they don't tell you like where they might run out so um my friends went because their
21:11 movie was in South by Southwest so like one of their fans were like we'll wait in line for you just come down we'll call you when we're close so they all came down they ordered a whole bunch of barbecue the person right behind them they go we just ran out oh and so they waited for six hours yeah like that they should get like a voucher everywhere they'd be the first person in line to come right that's like you can't tell like how much people are gonna order that's true yeah but yeah they don't have so much [Laughter] you sound like a Texan
