00:00:00 We thought stretching was a placebo
00:03:10 Connor's parents came to Japan
00:06:53 Confusing a taxi driver
00:08:37 Connor's parents found a nice café
00:09:48 You can't get cider in Japan
00:12:22 The main attraction in Japan is the bullet train
00:13:56 Trying every food
00:17:39 Forcing your parents to go to an Onsen
00:19:06 Harry's
00:20:10 Bokksu
00:21:47 Kanazawa
00:24:14 Connor tricked his parents to eat eel
00:26:50 Kyoto is too crowded
00:30:16 This bar had airsoft and shisha
00:34:22 Accidentally stumbling on a premium train wagon
00:36:46 Osaka
00:40:22 Magic bar
00:48:36 You don't get scammed in Japan
00:51:50 It's fun seeing people discover Japan
00:55:15 Dealing with Japanese taxi drivers
00:59:01 You need to know how to Sumimasen
01:01:58 Grammarly
01:03:05 Joey has to enter every bar first
01:05:35 You need to start talking fast
01:08:46 Would you help a tourist in Japan
01:11:30 Having your passport scanned in hotels
01:17:06 Helping a Japanese tourist in Australia
01:20:39 They thought Joey was Indian
01:24:08 Joey's tired of explaining that he knows Japanese
01:27:08 The front seat of the cab was wet
01:28:14 The biggest thing Australia is known for
01:30:32 You're being recorded
01:32:13 Japanese like it when you try to speak Japanese
01:33:40 How much research do you do before travelling
01:38:58 The worst tourists
01:48:53 The best tourists
As an Indian, I can confirm if Joey learns Hindi his fanbase is going to flourish like a fully nurtured fungi colony
best way to describe it
@@the_bigdaddy420 indeed
Yeah but the script + grammar is notoriously hard to get into if you aren't from the Indian subcontinent.
It's going to be over for almost all of Indian anime channels💀
But then again not everyone in India speaks Hindi tho. Bengali, Marathi. Kannada, Malayalam, Telugu, Tamil, etc....i think english is just fine to connect with everyone.
1:49:02 Garnt said "do you have the worst tourists in the world?" and I'm here sweating as a Chinese-Australian
@@johh55 assuming that isn't sarcasm, Chinese tourists have possibly the worst reputation of tourists from any country.
@@johh55 Very
your kind is the final boss of worst tourists 😅
@@sickseed8513 May I ask why? I never met any Chinese tourists
@@sickseed8513 sad to say but I cant argue with that considering the history. My parents refuse to go to set foot near there. Probably for the best lol
Joey is slowly becoming the anime grandpa
na u just know hes never worked out in his life
@@jake-wi4gi Sounds like it
@@jake-wi4gi that's how trash taste viewers relate to him
Back in my day there were only 150 Pokemon.
Nah just daddy 😋
You guys should plan an updated Japan recommendations list in the future! I feel like the time you’ve been there (and friends and family visiting) has stacked up some more great places to visit you know of.
Easy repeated topic they could use for the podcast, hear hear!
Probably not, because as Connor said, he wanted to keep some good place hidden from most of the tourist. Or it'll be packed like Kyoto & Shibuya. Maybe they will in the future we never know.
@@jimtamim1708 Oh places like that I agree they should leave alone. Especially not like a small bar or something along those lines
That bit about Garnt helping the Japanese couple made me feel so warm and fuzzy, interactions like that are so sweet
I'm currently studying for my finals. Thanks Trash Taste for providing good entertainment for me while doing this. Wish me luck, guys
Good luck Kiro 👍
I am also studying for my finals and listening to trash taste. We can do this man.
Good luck fam!
Good luck fellow student, I as well have my finals closing in, I hope you have fantastic grades and even better holiday afterwards🎉💐
GL dude :)
If Joey was in a Bollywood film, Bollywood would have a drastic spike in popularity.
Who wouldn't love aussie jesus tony hawking down the city streets of chicago while cosplaying John Wick?
@@ShadowOfMassDestruction don’t forget his *extensive* knowledge on Japanese culture… and Japanese “culture” ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
He could be to Bollywood films what Tom Cruise was to Japanese films, i.e. a white guy being the star of a movie about the natives.
Bollywood is dying right now, Joey could be the savior
bro i can only imagine how craazy the indian TT fans would go then, even the anime fans across india😭 i personally would be overjoyed and would pay any amount to see that
seeing connor's mom warmed my heart so much, im so happy for Connor (I spent 2-3 years away from my parents once and then seeing them again is special).
I just hoped he introduced her to Chris
Why?
As an Indian, when i first saw Joey I genuinely immediately thought he was Indian… and then i figured he was not. So I don’t blame that guy for assuming so. If joey was in india i doubt many people would assume he was a foreigner
He could easily pass as someone from the northeast as well!
@forrealivan3098 yeah even Nepali he could pass as
Same here lol😂
I find it funny how Connor is always shitting on the "touristy" stuff whilst Garnt is still trying to let everyone know that you will most likely enjoy them when visiting Japan as a tourist.
Just commenting to say that it would be awesome to see Rachel and Jun on here.
FR
it would for sure esp since joey was in their j-vlogger friend circle way back! considering they're on the other side of the country and don't really go to tokyo anymore (if at all) though it'll prob be a while 🥲
I'd like to add my vote to this recommendation.
who??
If we're dragging people up from Kyushu, bring Dogen, too. Garnt would get a chance to talk about anime again.
I have had a few experiences where I was spending a lot of time with Spanish speakers and dude... "Como se dice?" Or How do you say?" Is the ultimate hack phrase when in a situation where you don't speak the language. Joey's totally right.
For sure. The moment you say that they just give you the word or phrase youre looking for and its all good.
... thats italian))
@@MrEvans1 isn't Italian "como *si* dice". Either way, it's the same root language, it makes sense that it's similar
@@timoteorider1697 oh its the same in spanish :o ? Apologies , they are not as similar as people think and 99% of the time people are just mixing it up.
@@MrEvans1 Can confirm it is "como se dice" in Spanish :)
I loved hearing Connors story about his parents arriving in Japan. So cute and wholesome! Thank you guys for always making me laugh 💕
Love hearing the language stories! One of the funniest things my mom and I saw when I was growing up in SF (Richmond District, heavily Asian and Eastern European) was listening to a Russian couple trying to order in a Chinese restaurant, and nobody spoke English very well -- BUT --- the manager lady's English was just a wee bit more fluent (and she had the confidence to match), so she flexed the hell out of her broken English and helped the couple place an order. The Russian couple seemed to be legit impressed. It was all very wholesome, like a pure melting pot kind of moment.
55:49 Had a similar experience in Japan with my dad in 2019. At our hotel in Matsuyama, the lady at the front insisted on carrying our luggage to store it until our room was available and my dad's bag was... fairly heavy. She made an over-exaggerated point of struggling with it, but I think she was trying to be funny because she wouldn't let him help 😅
1:39:02 - I'm so glad you guys talked about this, because I have really wondered since traveling to Japan the first time... the main tourists we encountered were a) Australians, b) Israelis, and c) other Americans. By far, my dad and I were most confused about how rude the Australians were to us. We tried to talk to a few couples we encountered and they were like "wtf are you talking to us for" and just looked so disgusted. I was hoping that's not normal for Australians.
I'm sorry that happened, Although I can say it's not typical of Australians, it's not uncommon either. There's a lot of entitlement from Aussies who travel abroad, and a weirdly inflated sense of pride (lots of Australians weirdly believe that everyone loves us? It's just bizarre). I've only ever had nice interactions with American tourists so I would never dismiss them (or anyone) when coming across them abroad, hopefully we could cross paths one day and have a nice conversation 😊
@@Lauzangular I appreciate you and your experience / feedback! We certainly were trying to keep an open mind and not assume this was 'the norm,' but more thought it was interesting that it kept happening with Australians on our trip. It would certainly be my pleasure if we met in Japan and were able to have a nice chat! 😄
Imagine if Connor brought his parents to places where garnt and sydney brought theirs.....
I would love a double visitor special with the boys parents being guests, even as an after dark special. It would be cool to hear from an older gen on their experience in Japan
Japanese people insisting on talking broken English to you after you answer them in Japanese resulted in the most hilarious interactions I've had in Japan.
I won't speak for all Americans, but I'll say that if I'm ever abroad and seem extra polite, it is because I'm acutely aware of my country/people's reputation in the world (which we absolutely deserve) and really don't want to contribute yet another negative experience to someone's life.
If it makes you feel better, the Americans I've met in person have all been lovely. I think that the kind of people who enjoy travelling are the type who are open to new experiences and willing to engage with different cultures and perspectives.
...although I suppose this doesn't apply to people who travel somewhere simply because it's cheap. That's more of a mixed bag.
I guess I've been lucky in that my country is a bit more expensive and difficult to travel to from North America compared to some other countries, so I've only encountered the first type of American traveller.
Met plenty of garbage Americans online of course, but then... all the worst people from every nationality can be found online.
Americans are pretty chill tbh, nothing tops English fellas in Marbella and Magaluf
Americans as a whole aren't that bad as tourists. Plenty of them of actually good at learning the gist of a language before traveling somewhere and they're usually the respectful. It's just that some American habits that are not noticed in America don't always translate well to other countries and might be perceived as rude. Americans are very social and like saying hi to people and not everyone likes that.
I'm an Australian that lives outside of a city and I know exactly the kind of people joey was referring to in that izakaya. I also try very hard to make a good impression on people when I travel.
Damn
Usually lurk on here and don't usually comment but I just wanted to say how thankful I am for Trash Taste! Thank y'all for brightening up my week every week and for filling it with laughs and interesting conversation, y'all are the best!!💜
My dog I've had since childhood just passed away this morning and watching you guys has brightened up my day and helped to put my mind at ease thank you guys for making these videos.
Sorry for your loss bud
I'm so sorry to hear that, take care dude🫶
I know how hard it is, lost mine 2 years ago. I am so grateful that i grew for 14 years with him. Stay strong and take care
I think wherever you go in the world people appreciate your effort to speak the local language. Show willing and people are very forgiving of mistakes.
Though it's true that you can take the Australian out of Australia .....
big ups to connor for making sure things went oki with his parents from the other side of the pacific! i've been on the reverse of helping my family from Asia get situated in American airports with chauffeurs for early morning flights and all that and can't imagine how crazy that must have been to be out of the country and trying to make arrangements over the phone
Liooooolĺ⁹999
The sarcasm from Conner in the ads never gets old
I work on the road a lot and I have to say this is definitely my favorite pod cast I’ve heard y’all are entertaining as hell. Just shooting the shit, you guys make my days feel less lonely on the road. Thanks for everything you do!
You can tell connor is getting really into the nihongo by the way he says “osaka”. He hitting that long おお at the beginning there
legit first time i discovered Joey many many years ago on youtube my first impulse also was to think that he's Indian. so weird how his German-Portuguese-Japanese genes mixed to create someone so Southasian looking XD
meanwhile my brother who is Indian-German looks so ethnically ambiguous whenever he travels to the US people speak Spanish or even sometimes Navajo to him
Obviously Connor and Garnt aren't as frustrated with nihongo jouzu, they aren't actually jouzu. They can make simple inquiries, but they can't keep a conversation without relying on gestures and English. But if they were constantly told, "your English is good" they would after a while be like Joey. "Why would you presume I can't be good at English?"
As an Indonesian we're always really impressed when foreigners speak our language. I'm currently living in Australia and a few Australians speak pretty good Indonesian. When I first arrived in Australia I met a security guard in immigration who speak perfect Indonesian and he helped me get through. I took a photo with that man like he's a celebrity, ngl he's a pretty cool dude.
Where do you find the Oz that speaks perfect Indonesian, all of my experience living here for 4 years it's selamat pagi and terima kasih only lol
@@ch1maera087 The Airport 😆😆😆
I'm glad Garnt said he found all the Brits he met here cool so far, after being taken completely by surprise meeting him at some random event in the middle of nowhere in the Japanese countryside. Really nice to meet him though
Intriguing personal stories in this episode, great episode!
It's funny to play "How to spot a german on vacation", Sandals and socks, shorts and always a beer in hand and, if you're on a beach or pool, they lay down a towel as early as it can get to reserve a seat
You liar! That's Czech tourist!
It’s easy to spot Canadians and Americans because our voices are so fucking loud. there’s some people (mainly girls but some guys too) here that are louder than a fucking German town is what I say. At least I’m self aware of it at least
I saw the bad English to bad English conversations a lot in France. A tourist from China or Japan who speaks broken English combined with a French worker who speaks decent English but is used to British and American accents.
That Magic Box story is hilarious, I couldn't do my work properly coz I was laughing the whole time xD
For the third trash taste awards Joey's "I am rock hard" better win the out of context moment
My first time in Japan in 2001, I had just studied and knew a little to get around. In Osaka I came across a Korean guy who was frustrated that everyone kept talking to him in Japanese, so I helped him find his way. Incidentally, where I stayed there was a German guy who also knew some Swedish, so it was fairly bizarre to converse in Swedish in a random place in Osaka. I kind of miss that challenge of not having everything on your phone, not having internet access and having to ask random strangers to get around. I think I got a couple of nihongo jouzu as well.
I guess you are Swedish or know Swedish? That's nice not having smartphone and not having that instant access,more grit to the experience.
Btw do you live in japan or have moved on? Just curious since you mentioned a matter from 2001, wonder how Japan has changed Ince then.
@@mokisan I'm Swedish yes. I only visited for two weeks then and have later visited again, last time in 2019 when I returned to Osaka for a couple of days and went back to the same area to see what had changed. In many ways it was the same. I stayed in a YMCA guesthouse in Ryokuchikoen back then and the guesthouse is gone, but the museum I went to and a lot of the statues around the park remained, 18 years later.
@@BeardedNerdSE thanks for the reply.
_"Do you guys have that problem when you wake up and you're just like,_ *_stiff as a brick?..."_*
(͠≖ ͜ʖ͠≖)
*EDIT:* To be fair to Connor's parents (in regards to their fascination with bullet trains) I think to most British people (myself included) the sheer concept of a train that turns up on time, actually moves quickly to it's destination, isn't delayed because a few pieces of lint were spotted near the rails, isn't filled with people stabbing one another to death and isn't constantly on fire - is almost ontologically inconceivable. Trains aren't _supposed_ to work.
I live in Southeast Asia, and hearing this is freaking wild. I thought you guys lived in a first world country.
@@fadel_rama Lol, even in Canada and America trains are pretty shit, you literally cannot go anywhere on a train in Canada even in a place where it would make more sense for there to be a train ride rather than a flight. Canada is also the only g7 country without any high speed rail made or in the works. Hearing about trains in other countries actually being used to transport people amazes me as well
@@fadel_rama tbf SEA busses are just as wild, unless you're in Singapore then you're better than the rest of us
@@hornitako7006 Well, buses for public transport are still pretty chaotic because people haven't realized that taking the bus can help alleviate traffic congestion. However, trains and metros, while perhaps not as advanced as those in Japan, are still reliable and run on time. Additionally, they are clean and offer a "comfortable ride"
@@fadel_rama Don't listen to the hyperbole. Trains have 90% of the time been clean and comfortable for me in the UK. The main downside is the absurd cost and frequent delays. The buses in my city are always super clean and reliable too.
16:00 It's no wonder foreigners love tempura. It originally came from Portugal, so it is basically a western dish.
Cultural talks are the most interesting and fun to listen to for me
ahhh yes another episode to play while I go to sleep. bless you trash taste
As someone who works at a store and gets MANY tourists I completely understand the lady that kept talking to garnt in English cause sometimes it’s really like a switch I don’t know how to explain it but you talk to so many people in a day that your brain just shuts down
Conner just experimenting food with his parent 😂😂
wow i am going to Osaka, Kyoto in early June and this episode dropped. Nice info and advices.
Great episode i enjoyed all the wholesome stories so much ❤
Connor: "I think Europe has Highspeed rail too"
the TGV in Europe gets used by 250k people daily in France alone, it's not a million like Japan, but pretty good numbers and you can add to that the fact it connects to other countries and has similar speeds to the Shinkansen
Joey should have a business card with most common QnAs to hand out.
Can't wait! Thanks guys. ^^
12:40 Europe definetly has world class high speed rail, but it's younger and not as extensive as the Shinkansen in most cases, plus of course the reliability and punctuality of the Japanese system is insanely hard to match.
I grew up and lived in a small town in Russia all my life, and I felt like people were generally fascinated by tourists and eager to practice their English. Right now I live in Armenia and I'm kinda a tourist here ig, people are nice and hospitable, though I do feel like they get quieter when I come into the room and I get weird looks xd or maybe it's all in my head, thankfully almost everyone speaks russian too
all those things that Connor's parents experienced - including the miscommunications and odd places you end up in - are my main reason to travel. sure, nice hotels and instagrammable tourist places are nice, but you forget about them so fast, no matter how many pics you click. that insecure adventure part of a journey is what sticks in your memory for a lifetime.
just do it, sounds fun
Yeah the stories like that are the ones that you will remember for the rest of your life. I really want to one day be able to travel around the globe, but for now I must study and hopefully be able to make ny travel dreams come true one day ❤️
Ahh yes my favorite podcast Trash Test
My biggest pet peeve is tourists complaining about local food…like idk what you expected lol 😂
I had a similar experience about westerners in a bar here in Malaysia. Dude was complaining to the waiter that his beer is not filled up to the maximum volume of the mug. It's cheap beer and maybe only like 2cm till the tip of the mug, but the dude was complaining and started saying how he's a paying customer and shit. But most rude tourist definitely goes to mainland china tourist.
If you guys want some magic bar recommendations, I'd highly recommend Osmand MAHOU Magic Bar, Toto's Magic Bar and Half Moon Magic Bar. All three have pretty well known magicians (at least in the magic community) performing there
This podcast has genuinely jacked into my mind, this episode came out during my very first visit to Japan
Hope you had a nice time ✌️🤙
@@mikehawk8984 Thanks! It was incredible, Japan definitely lives up to the hype
So cool hearing Connor talk about Osaka because I'm going there for the first time next month! I need to do some research about magic bars because my husband would love that.
Let this week’s chaos begin
As an Indian i m can vouch that garnt and Joey would pass as Indian most of the time
ikr, i think the same
Yeah. Garnt as North East Indian and Joey would pass easily as north ( either east/central) Indian.
I agree
I was just in Japan and I really loved the Cuore bar next to Golden Gai. The magic tricks are so clean and smooth, it's amazing. A bit expensive but I've paid more for worse magic shows in Vegas.
this was a great episode
Trash taste always makes my day liveable :)
Your comment made my day better thanks!
The reactions to the Joey Hindi part are so golden lmao
This episode was pretty great
Happy Trash taste firday🎉🎉🎉 hope mcm invites you guys back
My fav part of the week: the pod usually drops at the last 2 hours of my work week. So my weekend starts as soon as the pod ends - great start to any weekend 😁😁
It’s crazy how much I relate to Connor having just had my partners family leave Japan. Too real too real. I definitely cried when they left though lol
Let’s gooo farming in a game rn while listening perfect timing
I just knew the stories of Connor touring his parents would be fun and wholesome!
The weirdest places do tend to be the most memorable.
2:11 me when a new trash taste episode is released
happy friday everyone!!
This episode was really stacked.
This happens to me so much!! I doing an internship at a German company in Shibuya & my mom's family has some Gernam in it, but I can't tell you the number of times people start speaking to me in German (& I only know English & somewhat Japanese)!
May I ask which company it is? I'm looking for jobs in Japan at the moment and speak German 😁
i really love them talking about life in japan😂
Me too
Great ep!
It is literally 2 am and here i am but i am all for *Old taste*
It’s pretty impressive how many different ways they can advertise bokksu
Fun fact: Based on Connor's watch saying 16:17 at 1:10:40 in the video, this recording was probably starting around 14:30 local time, considering toilet breaks and stuff.
… why ?
@@Bazilisk_AU Why not?
cool !
at Minute 13:47 the watch says 15:24 tho so your theory is wrong since I doubt they had a break right at the beginning 10minutes in
Great title now i have to watch
That magic bar sounds dopeee
3 minutes in and there's already enough material for a new Cyberpunk conpilation😂
A NEW EPISODE OF TRASH TASTE BOISS!!!
Just came back from a trip to the UK, Windsor Castle and Holyrood Palace don’t allow photography of the state apartaments and some other castles have limitations aswell. So that rule is not only in Japan.
The parent saga was funny af but really dope, yall got to spend time like that in Japan, plus that magician sounds right up my alley
Trash Taste back at it again, BEST PODCAST ON RUclips 💯
Definitely. I was just watching Jacksepticeyes new one and it’s fairly entertaining but it’s just missing a bit of chemistry like these boys have
@@Squalldane and it's Not face to face so it's kinda not adds chemistry
@@nishant4500 true true.
tuely one of the podcasts of all time.
And the only one for me!
The hotel situation is so much better in Japan compared in China. For starters, most Chinese hotel chains is a Gatcha when it comes to are they legally allowed to take foreigners (the checking process is such a pain during trips). Secondly, hotels are required to photocopy your passport and visa for the police. I really hate how long the process takes when it’s a tap and go for locals.
The only phrase I really needed to know on my first trip to Japan was "Osusume onegaishimasu"... Worked perfectly!
I live in the middle of texas kinda rural i love being able to help people thats dont speak spanish or helping those who dont speak english
Based bilingual texan
Highlight of the week has arrived.
Eid Mubarak to the trash taste bois and to everyone celebrating!

51:15~51:52 - Gacha
1:06:32~1:08:34 - Thai restaurant

1:28:15~1:29:42 - Joey in the clothes store
1:38:58~1:42:02 - Australian tourists
I dont watch any of these guys' individual content. But i love listening to their podcast
connor announcing that english people wanna go to places with more bang for their buck for vacation, got me rolling on the floor...
Joey nominating himself for the best out of context clips
27:00 Can confirm that Kyoto is waaaay too crowded with tourists (yes im aware that i was one too lol), was in Kyoto about 3 weeks before Connor was, and whilst the cultural aspects were awesome, there was just waaay to many people for my liking, best tourist experience for me was the Kinkakuji temple walk, that was problably the least densely populated temple expereince. At least in Tokyo, its such a huge city that 1. You expect the crowds, and 2. Its so big that everywhere feels somewhat spread out for tourists. Even Sensouji Temple in Asakasa, whilst yes being jam packed, didnt feel as claustrophobic with pple like Kyoto did.
Great out-of-context clips
i feel like traveling to japan as a finnish person would go either very well or very wrong, bc they're two reseverved cultures where not talking to strangers is the social norm. Getting lost would be a nightmare bc asking for help is already one too-
who else always watches at least until joey does the thing at the end? XD
thank you guys for the new video, i always looking forward to when a new video comes out :)
Thank you so much. It's a sliim chance that you will see this but I really appreciate u guys. U r helping me through a rough phase of my life
