Yeah too self conscious. Love to play games while you talk shit about something in the background. Very entertaining.Don't let your popularity get to ur head dude.
I was in Japan for 2 weeks, I spent 10 days in Tokyo and 4 in Kyoto. After the first week, I was super home sick and not sure why I decided to come. When I got back from Kyoto and spent my last few days in Tokyo, I didn't want to leave. The random adventures I went on lead me to random friendships I made on my trip. I'll never forget it and I'll be back next year. If I didn't have a daughter to take care of in the US, I'd find a way to live here 100%. Great country with great people!
We do the indoor shoes thing in Canada. At school up to highschool you had to have indoor shoes, and at my commercial gym in the winter they'd even make you take your boots off at the door. It goes without mentioning that I've never worn shoes inside somebody's house. Japan has immaculate street cleanliness but I'd say the USA is one of the only western places that doesn't observe a lot of the same cleanliness practices.
Indoor shoes are definitly a thing in Finland also. You are required to have seperate indoor shoes for gyms and other sport related premises. We never use shoes that have been worn outside at home. We leave the dirty shoes at a designated spot when you enter a home, in a very similiar manner to Japanese. It’s considered rude to enter with outdoor shoes inside a home.
14:05 - I’m asian canadian so I grew up, born and raised in canada but just in asian culture, we all like to keep it clean. The reason why you wear indoor shoes is to keep it separate from the outdoor shoes, however, when you walk around in the indoor shoes. It can be dirty again around the gym. When you take off your indoor shoes for the mat to stretch, it leaves no stains from walking around inside as well. It’s an asian thing. Happens in china and Korea.
Agree with what some others said here - no need to apologize or stop yourself from meandering. I really appreciated the conversational format and how detailed you got even if you think you went overboard at times. Keep it up, man! You just earned yourself a new subscriber.
I lived in Tokyo (Shibuya) for three great years…and agree with everything you said! I love Japan and the Japanese people. Thanks for another feisty, entertaining and informative video!
I enjoy listening to you speak about Iapan. I just spent 5 months there and plan to go back this winter. I too love it. I resonate with pretty much everything you said about it.Thanks dude, I enjoy your commendation 😊
i like this guy. i’m happy there’s not a ton of editing everywhere and bro is just so straight up with in all his vids. it’s so easy to listen to him. next i wanna see a podcast about traveling with a partner on the trip!!
Dude, I am a Japanese who live in Europe, and I totally get everything you said about my country. There is no place like Tokyo, it's the most convenient place I've lived, safe and clean and all that. But people are so miserable in Japan because they feel the pressure to fit in. I didn't want that pressure on my kids so I am thinking about moving to western europe. I enjoyed listening to your rants. Hope you have a nice time in Sapporo.
The only logical reason I can surmise why weed is still illegal in Japan is that they simply don't want to allow unproductive citizens to exist in society. If people stopped showing up to work 12+ hour days every day, their economy would collapse in a month.
Watching from Europe complaining about having to have a separate pair of shoes to use in the gym is actually insane to me haha. Not sure if it's disallowed explicitly to go to the gym with your dirty shoes, but I don't know anybody who would do that. What do the kids in the US do in their gym class? Don't they use separate shoes for indoor activities?
You either go to the gym in the shoes you were wearing or the more athletic kids who are into sports have a pair of shoes in their locker they’ll use, but they get worn inside and outside.
I've wanted to put out a video like this, but I didn't wanna sound ANTI - MERICA !!!! I lived in Japan (by way of the Navy so not really) for 5yrs. I left the Navy in 2015 and I'm STILL am trying to get back. Japan is the new America.... let me explain ... everyone wants to see it, experience it, be in it and a good percentage are WANTING to stay for an extended period and end up staying longer than expected. You don't have to deal with Americans polarizing every little political or racial thing, people treat you like a freaking KING/QUEEN. Watching people half jog to grab ketchup I asked for at McDonalds in Okinawa F**ked me UP.... like bro, why is she running.... "Sumimasen, don't run please, lol" Its a level of treatment you might ONLY get in Japan but that's WHO THEY ARE and they take pride in that shit.... I love them for it.
In Czech republic, and in Europe general, the indoor shoes are pretty normal, my dad was living in the USA, and the thing that americans walk in their outdoor shoes inside their home sounded crazy to me :D :D so this is not just a japan thing, this is europe also :)
Haha, the indoor shoes thing, my wife and me started in our house last year. Granted I walk around without shoes 90% of the time but she needs sneaks on and has a pair of indoor ones. Keeps my lazy ass from having to mop the wood floors. Also something special about going to a Japanese bar/Izakaya and getting fucked on beer, Sochu, and highballs while smoking a cig with your new best Japanese friend(s), waking up the next day wondering whether to fumigate or burn the clothes from last night.
When in certain countries, especially if you're an american or british (former imperialists), you must treat the country with respect as you would respect someone's house. That's why the Indians and the Vietnamese are so mad. 😂
I did a food tour in Japan in Osaka with a lovely local and he went into detail about just how slow it takes to get things done in Japan. You would think with how technological they are things would be digital but in fact all of their paper work is done manually! It was his biggest complaint because things are just done too damn slow. He even went into why China is going to be very far ahead of them if not already. And I hate to say it but Japan has become very poor. I’m not saying it’s going to turn into another Thailand but I think it’s pretty much going to be turned into a full tourist destination for its economic support and won’t be able to survive without it.
Born & raised in Toronto and was in Japan last year, honestly it's really clean and modern and has its exciting parts but I found it a tad boring. Also it was full of lots of Western tourists that seemed to just ruin everything, we tried to go to the spots for locals and what not but it seemed at those spots they didn't want to have too many foreigners and even then most younger Japanese people seemed very to themselves. The only ones that were kind of interesting were the young high school kids at shrines and castles that wanted to speak English and take photos with you as well as the 50+ year old men on the train line that wanted to practice their English in Osaka. Granted, I don't do the cheapest possible options when I travel like Connor but when I went to Vietnam I found it way more exciting, authentic, invigorating with just as good, if not more beautiful scenery and things weren't so overly commercialized and westernized to where a place loses it's uniqueness.
100% ripping cigs inside is awesome.. and I don’t even smoke 😂. Being in a bar/izakaya/club with people ripping cigs just makes it that much more lively. It’s not like France where you’ll be eating at a cafe for lunch and someone is blowing smoke on you. Japan definitely has the social smoking requirements set perfect.
I use to vape and I quit around January. I was so stressed getting to Kyoto I bought a pack just to let off some steam, I made more friends social smoking than at the bar🤣 And no, I'm not addicted to nicotine, I haven't had a desire to smoke since😅
I spent a year studying abroad in Japan, and although I cannot give a specific example, I totally understand your point about the gym shoes situation. There were moments where I just didn't understand the logic behind some of the rules, it felt really unnecessary and for no ones real benefit.
a friend of mine went to Japan this year to see the sakura blossom a member of the tour group went to the bathroom and forgot his empty coffee there someone literally called the police on him for an empty carton recipient the tour guide stepped in and explained the guy is a foreigner and all that and that he didn't know fortunately it was fine
Bro you can rip cigs inside here in Germany too. We don't even have like a big smoking area culture. So obviously it's banned at very crowded spots, but other than that you can smoke everywhere. Same with alcohol. I'm traveling around Japan at the moment and every single day I realise that Germany and Japan actually have some nice things in common.
I remember as a teenager we always had that 1 friends place we could rip CIGS inside anytime we wanted and it was the best!!!!! we just proper chillin rippin away lol
I lived in southwest Florida for about 2 years and there was some dive bar that let regulars smoke cigs at the bar (I quickly became a regular until I moved back north)
I am from USA! ❤ In our house (my husband and I) we take shoes off either outside, or in the porch room area. Our house may get busy or cluttered sometimes but there aren’t germs from public bathrooms or anything on the floor and that’s important to us. We like to sit and stretch and hang out to do SO many things whether it’s folding laundry, sitting at each others feet to give a quick massage, showing each other a new gadget.. blah blah blah .. We are NOT the norm in US… it’s unfortunate… to the point when we have guests over we feel bad for asking them to take off their shoes and never making them feel bad even if it is something we do to feel safe and clean. Again we are not overly clean tidy wise but my husband and I both like what kind of germs the floors from public spaces brings. Dirt too!! But I care way more about the Germans (just think how many people use a few public restrooms every day and then walk infrequently my of their couch where their family gathers around for a few minutes end of the night .. ewwww ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I would love to visit Japan because of the politeness of the people across the board. On the honesty note though, I do take issue with 11:12 - it's not the 'white savages' which make Western societies dirty; typically Europeans are also very clean.
Yo Conner i have something to tell you bud, and i have full confidence in it too! You have full blown ADHD, congratulations! Im double diagnosed and run tiny awareness campaigns about adult ADHD here in Egypt. Very well informed about the subject and also a sufferer of it. Having binged your series three times in one week (a symptom called hyperfixation by the way) - and noticed all the signs in you - impulsivity, chronic lateness to the point of becoming identity tied, rambling and losing train of thought, a “doer not a planner” - yeah man You got Adhd. Not sure if thst affects you in any way but yeah! Thought id let you know :) its only an issue if it hurts your life and you seem to be doing great as of recent. Take care
Also the severe dislike of desk jobs, routine, boringness and authority. Ever wonder why “allll these people can just do it day in day out” but not you? Yeah :) ADHD is not just attention related. It is very much an emotion disregulation disorder. It is very much a time-awareness based disorder. Its very much a routine and self regulation disorder. Just thought it would be maybe helpful in getting to know ones self further to let you know my thoughts on the things iv noticed in your habits parasocially through youtube lol. Cheers!!
In the nordics, for example Sweden, everyone has indoor gym shoes. On top of that people will not walk with shoes on in their own or other peoples homes. The japanese government is heavily invested in the tobacco industry.
Man, loved this podcast. I love Japan and all but yea, so many guidelines (and unspoken guidelines) I had a DOD contract with Japan and Northrop and had a company in Minato. After 3 years there we had to pull out. I loved the people and time I had there but the work culture was killing us lol. I tried to hold out but it just wasn't viable. Luckily the ones under our contract (Japanese Citizens) were able to get a Fed/JSDF contract and stayed employed while us, US employees had to pull out and lose our residency in the end. But at that time it was a good time. I would love to move to Japan to make a life and not focus on working and having a secondary income from the US but that's down the line. I liked this podcast brother and looking to many more!
Entertaining podcast! Also, Anytime Fitness in Japan allows outdoor shoes. I was surprised and thought I was going to have to buy another pair of shoes, but they said it's not necessary when I asked.
11:50. Whitey here. I have indoor shoes. They are a nice pair of Nike's that are so white I have never gone outside in them in case they get dirty. Now I keep them by the door and put them on when I get home. I thought I was strange, but maybe I would fit in over there! Edit: 23:00 - I am also old enough to remember smoking inside in the UK. My first job people were chain smoking all day, every day - right in the office. Seems odd now. 30 years later and my lungs are made out of leather.
Dunno if ur joking about smoking inside but uh, smoked from 13 to 30 and now 4 years later. So glad "no sigs inside". Cigs inside is one of the negatives.
I feel like holding everybody to a high standard is not necessarily a bad thing? pretty much nailed the description, but I think that’s the cultural norm everybody should strive for
As someone who lives near Dayton, you chose one of the worst places in Ohio to walk around at night😂. Not much better in other places in Ohio, but Dayton, Youngstown & Akron are basically no-go for me and my friends when in the area.
Bro if I moved to Japan I would smoke like a mofo. Shit was so tight when I was there. I was nervous to light one up the first time, but I did, then the waiter brought my food and beer and was so nice and nobody cared it was the best meal of my life!
Cigarettes are shit man. It's one thing to like to smoke (outside or inside) but you know they are bad for everyone. But thank you for sharing your thoughts, very interesting! Going to Japan soon so it's nice to hear you out :) Loved your Ireland to Japan series btw!
I worked at a law firm during summer in law school and the firm represented a Japanese auto manufacturer and I was told to research a motion (request for court/judge) to prevent (to bar) the expert witness - a former engineer of the Japanese auto manufacturer - from testifying for the plaintiff (someone claiming injury due to lack of enough safety features in car to prevent injuries despite car accident). The engineer had previously signed a confidentiality agreement when he got the job with Japanese auto manufacturer. What was remarkable was the agreement was a pledge to keep secrets based on the engineer’s family name and family honor! It’s like The Godfather 2, where Frank Pantangeli is going to testify for the feds but the Corleones bring Frank’s older brother all the way from Sicily just to sit in court and give his younger brother a stern look. Then Frank gets on the witness stand in court and recants his prior sworn statements and testifies it was all “bullshit” and he had only been lying for “the FBI guys” because that’s what the FBI wanted him to do. Once he saw his older brother who lived in Sicily inside the NYC courtroom he appreciated the consequences of testifying against his former mafia family and what it would mean to his family honor. So, that’s all I got to say about peer pressure in Japan. I always thought based on photos it would be like alien world or other planet. Let’s hope the NWO doesn’t try to destroy Japan with migrants. Recently I saw news that Mexico is deporting Americans who are undocumented because they use dollars and are driving up prices for locals. What an irony! Mexicans don’t get deported from USA for driving down wages of Americans and taking our jobs and sending money back to Mexico. Americans are too nice. Or Mexicans are hypocrites. Or Americans are stupid for letting claims of “racism” peer pressure them into letting foreigners invade the country and buy everything with money Americans no longer have due to economic warfare waged against them. President Trump then gets election stolen from us and now they are going to sentence him to prison in July. Will Americans do shit???? Maybe we should start ripping cigs inside the bars and refuse to let Trump be sentenced and then let Trump roam the USA freely despite domestic enemies piece of paper saying warrant to arrest of President Trump. music.th-cam.com/video/GL_SEtGA1ag/w-d-xo.html&si=BUh3XFkzCgUrMl5h music.th-cam.com/video/6MbqzDm1uCo/w-d-xo.html&si=ej7dFa0xXsgpC7wv

Stop calling out yourself for rambling broski it’s a solo podcast. It’s all good 👍
I agree - and it might help to have someone there with you just listening and checking audio in case you need some feedback in real time?
Yeah too self conscious. Love to play games while you talk shit about something in the background. Very entertaining.Don't let your popularity get to ur head dude.
No one needs your validation. "Broski"? Really?

What would you do there for work?

A Colombian guy watching this video: Yep
Right lolol
The ripping cigs rant sounds like something Theo Von would say lol

That’s because your goulashes are wet or full of snow.
That’s why our immune systems in USA are stronger. All the germs inside our buildings.
For me it's so dirty not taking off your shoes inside, you're walking outside with dirt and dogshit.
Hard to believe magic mushrooms used to be legal there
My friend bought magic mushrooms at a head shop under the train tracks in Kobe when we were in 7th grade and we tripped balls. What a great time.
Indoor shoes are definitly a thing in Finland also. You are required to have seperate indoor shoes for gyms and other sport related premises. We never use shoes that have been worn outside at home.

Its just a murican thing. Kuka vittu pitää paskasia kenkiä sisällä? Jenkit... 😂😂
@@Stubhose joo eipä, on kyllä saastaista :DD
Smoking rant was a mandatory transpacific pre-game rally 🤝
What he says about cigs being healthier in Japan is so true. We put so many chemicals in our cigs in US.
The cigs in Korea are amazing too
Him calling the latin alphabet "english style letters" really hurts to hear
This endless rambling made for the best podcast I’ve heard in a while. Entertaining as hell. Ramble on, good sir.
Dont doubt what you call "rambling" its great and very easy to listen to. Keep it up!
14:05 - I’m asian canadian so I grew up, born and raised in canada but just in asian culture, we all like to keep it clean.

"fully employed, nam sayin, 3 min late, crushing it"😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
In Germany we have "Hallenschuhe" for indoor sports.
And we can rip cigs in many bars and clubs here!
😂 lol cigs inside bit was hilarious and true. If you dust off that stand up comedy career that can be one of your bits for sure.
I enjoy listening to you speak about Iapan. I just spent 5 months there and plan to go back this winter. I too love it. I resonate with pretty much everything you said about it.Thanks dude, I enjoy your commendation 😊

You can buy beer and cocktails out of vending machines 24/7.
Cheers for making laugh with the cigs inside part 😂
The only logical reason I can surmise why weed is still illegal in Japan is that they simply don't want to allow unproductive citizens to exist in society. If people stopped showing up to work 12+ hour days every day, their economy would collapse in a month.
Yeah, I can't imagine a society that dedicated to efficiency would be at all into a drug that glues people to the sofa...
That's kind of bs because a lot of them drink everyday
@@onlinearmeygames You think people aren't showing up to work hungover all the time?
More of these, i love putting your videos on and just do my chores around the house. Very funny and interesting listen every time
Love these podcasts please keep em coming. 100% retention from ya boy. And your ability to ramble and be endlessly entertaining is a skill!
Connor being all good moral and all then goes balls out on starting smoking cigs 😂💀
I watch 3 Podcasts on YT and this is one of them
thanks dude
India and Japan aren’t that far away from each other yet cleanliness are two different worlds for those countries.

Your ramblings are some of the best parts man, who cares if you ramble, we all are here to listen to your thoughts!! The more, the better!

About the shoes in the gym thing: here in germany it is forbidden to wear outdoor shoes in the gym too
The ripping cigs part and you daring the viewer to ‘just try it’ (chef’s kiss) 😅
Haha, the indoor shoes thing, my wife and me started in our house last year. Granted I walk around without shoes 90% of the time but she needs sneaks on and has a pair of indoor ones. Keeps my lazy ass from having to mop the wood floors.

Wearing sneakers on a yoga mat will tear up the mat. I know from experience.
I'm half-japanese, half-english. I get best of both worlds! Even then, I think Japan is worlds better just experience wise. At least in my twenties...

Just thought it would be maybe helpful in getting to know ones self further to let you know my thoughts on the things iv noticed in your habits parasocially through youtube lol. Cheers!!
In the nordics, for example Sweden, everyone has indoor gym shoes. On top of that people will not walk with shoes on in their own or other peoples homes.
The japanese government is heavily invested in the tobacco industry.
There’s bars in my hometown where you can rip cigs inside still. Wyomings got plenty of hidden gems besides Yellowstone
Man, loved this podcast. I love Japan and all but yea, so many guidelines (and unspoken guidelines) I had a DOD contract with Japan and Northrop and had a company in Minato. After 3 years there we had to pull out. I loved the people and time I had there but the work culture was killing us lol. I tried to hold out but it just wasn't viable. Luckily the ones under our contract (Japanese Citizens) were able to get a Fed/JSDF contract and stayed employed while us, US employees had to pull out and lose our residency in the end. But at that time it was a good time. I would love to move to Japan to make a life and not focus on working and having a secondary income from the US but that's down the line. I liked this podcast brother and looking to many more!
Entertaining podcast! Also, Anytime Fitness in Japan allows outdoor shoes. I was surprised and thought I was going to have to buy another pair of shoes, but they said it's not necessary when I asked.
lol cigs in a fancy ass bar hits so hard
Love the pod brother!
11:50. Whitey here. I have indoor shoes. They are a nice pair of Nike's that are so white I have never gone outside in them in case they get dirty. Now I keep them by the door and put them on when I get home. I thought I was strange, but maybe I would fit in over there! Edit: 23:00 - I am also old enough to remember smoking inside in the UK. My first job people were chain smoking all day, every day - right in the office. Seems odd now. 30 years later and my lungs are made out of leather.
bro forgot about Casinos in america for inside smoking haha
Smoking cigs inside is like my worst nightmare 😂
Dunno if ur joking about smoking inside but uh, smoked from 13 to 30 and now 4 years later. So glad "no sigs inside". Cigs inside is one of the negatives.
Nailed it, but why are you two channels on a different timeline?
I feel like holding everybody to a high standard is not necessarily a bad thing? pretty much nailed the description, but I think that’s the cultural norm everybody should strive for
Germany actually took Japan's place as the third largest economy last year
They have cigarette rooms inside a starbucks
Agree on most but Germany is actually 3rd biggest world economy with a population of only 84 million.
Awesome podcast !
I’m going to Japan for the first time next week. Kinda nervous, but this video helped! Dreading this 14 hour flight though. 😂
how is it?
How did it go?
Musk is not taking us to Mars. Thunderf00t has been calling out Musk for years.
As someone who lives near Dayton, you chose one of the worst places in Ohio to walk around at night😂. Not much better in other places in Ohio, but Dayton, Youngstown & Akron are basically no-go for me and my friends when in the area.
Bro if I moved to Japan I would smoke like a mofo. Shit was so tight when I was there. I was nervous to light one up the first time, but I did, then the waiter brought my food and beer and was so nice and nobody cared it was the best meal of my life!
I was disappointed when they had no zyn... cigarettes were so cheap also.
Cigarettes are shit man. It's one thing to like to smoke (outside or inside) but you know they are bad for everyone. But thank you for sharing your thoughts, very interesting! Going to Japan soon so it's nice to hear you out :) Loved your Ireland to Japan series btw!
Japanese jail kinda lit 😂
Great pod 😊
smelling like a cigarette after the bar is never fun :(
Bro's an INDIA SLAYER
Really hope to Travel to Japan one day
Pretty common here too to wear clean shoes... Hmm jummy dog shit on my leg press...
Do the ice cream machines at McDonalds work in Japan?
Why not clip the mike to your shirt?
Cigs inside is amazing till my wife made me quit...
god the cigs section makes me wanna smoke too
The Japanese are like the Borg. They assimilate something and work to perfect it.
Balkans bro everybody ripping cigs inside, it's surprisingly not intolerable too
あなたが感じている日本を一言で言えば同調圧力の国なんだな。
それを上回る素晴らしい点がたくさんあるという結論あっての批判だからこの動画はいいけどな。
一方、多くのことは慣れ次第でもあるし、誰しも生まれ育った土地を基準にして他の場所を論じることは仕方がないな。自分は海外に20年以上暮らし、そのうち12年はアメリカで暮らしたけども、やっぱり日本が一番いいと思うのも、そういうことなんだろうな。
I worked at a law firm during summer in law school and the
firm represented a Japanese auto manufacturer and I was told to research a motion (request for court/judge) to prevent (to bar) the expert witness - a former engineer of the Japanese auto manufacturer - from testifying for the plaintiff (someone claiming injury due to lack of enough safety features in car to prevent injuries despite car accident). The engineer had previously signed a confidentiality agreement when he got the job with Japanese auto manufacturer. What was remarkable was the agreement was a pledge to keep secrets based on the engineer’s family name and family honor! It’s like The Godfather 2, where Frank Pantangeli is going to testify for the feds but the Corleones bring Frank’s older brother all the way from Sicily just to sit in court and give his younger brother a stern look. Then Frank gets on the witness stand in court and recants his prior sworn statements and testifies it was all “bullshit” and he had only been lying for “the FBI guys” because that’s what the FBI wanted him to do. Once he saw his older brother who lived in Sicily inside the NYC courtroom he appreciated the consequences of testifying against his former mafia family and what it would mean to his family honor. So, that’s all I got to say about peer pressure in Japan. I always thought based on photos it would be like alien world or other planet. Let’s hope the NWO doesn’t try to destroy Japan with migrants. Recently I saw news that Mexico is deporting Americans who are undocumented because they use dollars and are driving up prices for locals. What an irony! Mexicans don’t get deported from USA for driving down wages of Americans and taking our jobs and sending money back to Mexico. Americans are too nice. Or Mexicans are hypocrites. Or Americans are stupid for letting claims of “racism” peer pressure them into letting foreigners invade the country and buy everything with money Americans no longer have due to economic warfare waged against them. President Trump then gets election stolen from us and now they are going to sentence him to prison in July. Will Americans do shit???? Maybe we should start ripping cigs inside the bars and refuse to let Trump be sentenced and then let Trump roam the USA freely despite domestic enemies piece of paper saying warrant to arrest of President Trump. music.th-cam.com/video/GL_SEtGA1ag/w-d-xo.html&si=BUh3XFkzCgUrMl5h
