BUT HOW MANY trucks will get flipped this year?!
Question for a future fan read on a podcast maybe?
Hey Chris, hey Pete,
If I go to Japan as a white, American, trans woman, would you genuinely think I'm gonna be gafaw'd the whole time? Or do they get over it eventually? Widely speaking, do Japanese people react strongly to transgender people in your experience?
Thanks, much love for reading
I LOVE JOHNNY 5!!
You tell me this now? I was in shibuya last week 😭
The shared child raising idea is hilarious. A week with each "parent" is too short though, you all live WAY to far apart. It'd have to to be like a month each. Imagine flying from LA to Japan and back every week 😵💫
Sounds like Shibuya is doing the same thing as Daytona Beach did with spring break some time ago. They got tired of the crowds, the damage, and the drunkenness' that strained both the city and residents; The city stopped issuing most permits of any kind, flooded the streets with cops that ticketed for even the most minor thing, hotels stopped renting rooms to anyone under 30, & business curfews that pretty much shut the city down by 10pm. After a few years of no fun, no place to stay, and racking up fines, the kids finally got the hint and moved on.
Did you see that ludicrous display last night?
Why is this section about the David Beckham documentary on the front of this video? No interest.
I’m in Tokyo this Halloween! Anyone have any recommendations for where to go sat 28th
Surprised Chris's parents have yet to go to Japan — it's been more than a decade! It's quite the contrast from Connor's parents, though Connor did say his parents showing up on his stream was a necessary condition for him to write off their fancy first-class flight. Maybe Chris's parents aren't too crazy on the idea of getting screen time shrugs
Just got the Harry Gateaux joke. Japanese probably think that's what every foreigner is saying but just pretend it's OK.
OK… I need that sonic young ones repellent

What are you going to be?? Halloween?? Automatons?? Bowing to so called law and order that DICTATES and INFRINGES on your freedom?? Uhh well the Japanese from the cradle to the grave are indoctrinated and ruled over by the doctrines of the old men in the diet.. Comply, obey, don't disturb the 'harmony' and bow to those who should know better but seldom do?? Old, worn out, despots?? NAH!! See you all in Shibuya for Halloween… ignore and be brave !! Show them the political weasels, the corrupt cops.. the old men in the diet… FREEDOM comes from expression… from the streets of Shibuya on HALLOWEEN..
Shibuya is not a venue for Halloween parties. Drinking on the streets is prohibited at night.
This message is from Shibuya Ward, which is trying to prevent nuisance behaviors such as smoking, drinking, and littering on the streets during the Halloween period.
They are asking people not to visit Shibuya for the purpose of Halloween, as they are concerned about the safety and security of residents and visitors.
All the time! there is so much to see in Tokyo, you are wasting your time doing simple tourist stuff. I stay away from Shibuya, Ikebukero, Shinjuku, Ebisu and Harajuku unless I have a reason to go. Real city Japanese culture is more than those spots. Being a native New Yorker I would never hang out in the current Times Square.
Chris might've been making fun of raising a kid to be the best youtube, but some kids are already being in videos from very young age and a big part of their life is public and for everyone to see (and judge). So I wonder how that's gonna affect them later in life.
When to avoid Shibuya: Always, hear me out: it's just a crossing with the same shops that are also everywhere else in Tokyo. Take a photo of Hachiko though.
Sorry guys not sorry but Ken watanbi is a gold star David Beckham is a bronze not in same league even though I'm a man utd fan love you podcasts and videos
Hearing the bit about Gran Class – I had the pleasure of experiencing that last time I was in Japan. Really nice time, as I went from Tokyo Station to Omiya 😂 Trying to explain to the poor attendant who came round to take the food order that I was only going as far as Omiya
I haven’t seen the video yet, but I’m assuming this has something to do with JJK‘s Shibuya Incident…
Whenever I hear Shibuya now, I immediately have to think of Jujutsu Kaisen. My brain is absolutely fucked after reading that Manga 😂
