As someone who has delivered lost luggage - Sometimes it's better to FedEx your luggage. They have better support and are delivery experts. Don't deal with the incompetent airport staff.
Oh no, don't trust us. As a FedEx employee I can say for certain that you shouldn't trust us. Every day we lose shit because it is obscenely damaged because they are overworking the package handlers (the very base level employees) and demanding they blitz through trucks as fast as possible.
Yep. Worked in a shipping dept for a large corp. Never lost anything with bonded and insured freight. Although sometimes people would ship stuff that way and then not tell us, and not leave a reference in the paperwork. It's pretty obnoxious to receive an 800lb pallet, and have to keep it in storage for a month cuz it doesn't say who ordered it. Then someone comes storming in demanding it and telling us nobody informed them it came. "well, if you had put your name on this, we'd have told you when it arrived. Do you have a tracking number, or reference for it? No? Of course you need us to find an unidentifiable shipment right now. Oh you don't actually have anywhere to put it? Then why the hell did you order this thing you don't have room for and don't seem to care about?"
As someone who has worked with teams who have filmed internationally I can confirm. Better off mailing your thousands of dollars of equipment out ahead of you insured. Even with a customs delay it will be less risky than flying with it.
Garnt’s Wedding in a nutshell: - Joey try not to cry challenge - Karen whiskey drinking speedrun - Jan chatting with a homeless Daniel Radcliffe - Connor giving work to Mudan at the Wedding - Sydney Gut’s Theme Walking - Garnt awaken inner monke and simultaneously panicking - Garnt’s Mom downing a bottle of beer - Meilyne trying to rob someone to take a shot
Starbuck employee usually misspell the name of customer incorrectly for more publicity(As the customer would publish their hilarious incorrect named on their social media and company get free promotion) .It may have happened that starbuck employee heard gigguk name and assumed his name was "grant" and misspell his named purposely "'garnt'".
@@adarshkushwaha2071 yeah but why would any starbucks employees care to try that? Plus it might just piss someone off, I don't think they're doing it on purpose.
my mom walked in when i was watching this, so i paused it to talk to her and she read the title and said "oh!! one of your boys got married? good for him!" so uh congrats garnt and syd from me and my moms lol
I really like Connor bringing up how the logistics of next day delivery on Amazon can be pretty fucked in the states. I've heard so many horror stories of Amazon delivery drivers being sleep deprived, peeing in bottles to save time, going on insane routes. All for the convenience of having something the next day. I feel like this is why I really love hearing Connor's point of view on the pod (even tho he can be really monke brain sometimes). But I feel like he has a really good understanding of how things work logistically, even if he can't always explain it correctly
My bf works for Amazon and they have to pee in bottles. He got an angry text from his manager with a bunch of other drivers in a group message. They were mad that the drivers were disposing of the bottles on the Amazon site. They knew they were peeing in bottles and were mad they didn’t dispose of their piss bottle at a random trash can. They aren’t upset their drivers have to literally piss in the van, but instead upset that the bottles are thrown away at the warehouse because they think it’s gross lmfao
I enjoyed the conversation, but was surprised that no one brought up just how big America is compared to England or Europe. It just means that products get spread out more, creating an even bigger logistical problem when it comes to delivery.
I live in Chicago and I get one day delivery for free (never use it tho since I never have to urgently need things to be here tomorrow). I think it is likely that the products they were trying to order is located in warehouses elsewhere (east coast for example) hence the extra cost associate with one day shipping.
The officiator saying "Grant" is the most perfect thing. Also, Karen drinking herself stupid is like, the most Karen thing ever being a long time fan. The second Joey said that I was just like "ah, of course she did."
As someone who works in the hospitality industry in the UK, I hear the kinds of experiences Garnt went through every day from guests checking in the hotel. The issue is that most UK airports decided to straight up fire their staff during covid with little to no payment and an overall horrible treatment. Now that the country is opening up, with the news of how badly they treated their employees, no one wants to work for them, and because unemployment is higher due to covid - as well as more staff being needed to cover the busy summer season - there are so many positions that no one has to compromise by working at the airports. The end result is that the airports are understaffed at the busiest time of year. And during the Fringe and all the music festivals in August it will be even worse. The same thing happened to me while getting a flight to Egypt, which due to delays stacked on delays, and missed connections because of delays, I ended up arriving a day and a half later than planned. Regarding their complaint that the airlines don't give any information or care about resolving issues, what most people don't know is that airlines have nothing to do with luggage. All that is managed by the airport. But the customers get angry at the airlines because they don't know any better. So the staff are pretty jaded from getting yelled at every day by 10 different people over the mistake of some airport in some other country.
Honestly, as a person who live in Bali where tourism is our life, that's pretty fucked up. In here most of worker at least getting compensation from their job or still working but using shift due less of tourist. So now that tourist is back, we don't have problem with staffs at all
The thing is, they didn't pay the airport - they paid the airline. It is the responsibility of the airline to get their stuff where it needs to be on time.
As someone who worked in convenience stores for many years in the past, I feel compelled to point out that the state of customer service in the US mirrors how badly customer service reps are treated. I've been beaten to temporary disfigurement, struck in the head with a bottle of alcohol, held at gunpoint and threatened so many times with physical violence that I've lost track of every instance it occurred. Too many people in the US have come to see retail workers as punching bags for their frustrations. Retail workers themselves are usually underpaid, overworked and readily discarded by their employers. And the result is an apathetic, jaded work force that has come to reflect how they are treated.
This is what I came to say. Customer service is a reflection of customer base. And the customer base in the US are in general, assholes. That poor lady had no power over the system, but guarantee she had at least a dozen people that day acting like she personally lost their bags.
Tbh this whole tangent of "oh my god I feel so bad for the way she treated me" just sounds so weird, surely these guys have worked atleast once in the service industry and understand how shit it is. I don't understand why people expect someone that is paid minimum wage to go out of their way to to them favours like they're special
And to answer to that is Garnt is ACCUSTOMED with the polite and customer-first Japanese level customer service, so being treated like shit on the first flight to America was both a cultural shock plus depressing experience for him. Try to view it from his POV, and not from the customer service worker. And even if the customer service worker is being treated unfairly in the first place, it gives the worker NO rights to treat an innocent customer unfairly. It just solidifies the notion that Americans, at least the said industry, lacks professionalism and are barbaric in nature. And tbh, that's neaderthalism is showing. Luckily, as an Asian, I can't share the sentiment because genetics, yeah.
When Joey starts to put one foot up and started to lean into the sofa and both Garnt and Connor sit crossed legged into the sofa, and non of their feet are on the ground makes this podcast experience 100 times better and cozier. That parasocial relationship hitting hard right now!
Update: I wrote a comment awhile back about how nervous I was to start Basic Training and how your guys podcast really helped me during a hard time. I've now finished Basic Training and life in the Military has been crazy but awesome! I'm excited to watch all the episodes I missed, and even though I'm onto a new chapter in my life I just want to say thank you for this podcast. It will be fun getting back to watching the weekly Monke, Grant, and Josh.
"They do talk about it acutally, they're like: Be ashamed." Connor is very right on that, though I guess the way we learn about German History here is that I never had the understanding that Germany is a young country, rather a very old one that had just a fuck ton of changes to it's geography and naming and stuff. Also, do believe me that we really do talk about our history a lot, especially in school. basically from 7th or 8th grade onwards WW2 is like almost the only subject in history lessons
Maybe the UK should take a page out of Germany’s book. They’ve done some equally fucked up shit in their colonies and pretend like it never happened. What a bunch a hypocrites (not the boys, the uk government in general)
All of that is totally true. Also, my hometown was founded on the limes so we started our lessons of German history during the Roman Empire - I could never think of Germany as a young country.
@@balabanasireti Should modern day Germans be ashamed? They were just born in a country where horrible things happened in the past. They literally did nothing wrong, at least pertaining to WW2. Learning about your country 's history and feeling ashamed are two very different things.
@@destituteanddecadent9106 I mean we just still kind of have that whole collective guilt thing going on.I don't feel responsable for what happend decades before my time but I feel we are definetly ashamed of what generations before us did but we can joke about it because it is our history. obviously we don't joke about the victims of the whole thing but about the stupidity and the idiocity that is nazi germany. I think it is important to know and to understand that part of our history and therefore be humble about our nation today as i feel these days the line between patriotism and terrible nationalism is incredibly thin.
"If there's one thing you should not do at your wedding while waiting.. it's look at your mum" Legit best advice ever!! I was waiting for my wife to appear and was facing the front of the room with the guests behind me. The second I turned around and saw my mum tearing up I fucking lost it! heavy breathing, sweaty palms the works! I had to stare at a spot in the roof just to stop myself from crying my eyes out XD
Man, my wife walked down the aisle to "At Last I See The Light" from Tangled with my brother playing horn and my uncle on piano, and I totally relate with just the overwhelming beauty and emotions of that moment, she looked like an angel from heaven, and the emotions of all of it were just beyond words to describe it, when the song and timing of the moment is just amazing!
That sounds absolutely beautiful. And incredibly amazing. Sounds like a fun and wonderful wedding. And I wish you and your wife a wonderful marriage ahead ^^
Thanks, Garnt, for sharing a little bit of your special day with us. You didn't have to show any of it but thank you for letting us see and experience some of it. I'm so happy for you guys and from our marriage to yours, I hope you continue to grow in that happiness; forever more.
It's the weirdest feeling to hear that the boys were casually walking around your town. Crazy to think that if you were out and about you could just run into one of them on the sidewalk. Glad y'all had a nicer time in Glendale and Pasadena!
To think that even with the delays for editing, the equipment situation hasn’t been resolved is a massive frustration, had they at minimum professionally apologized and shown an attempt, the whole conflict would of ended even if the equipment was still lost. Whatever is going on shouldn’t be.
I'm %100 sure at this point that it is stolen. They are just covering their asses. It's also always a good measure to drop an airtag in your bag with expensive shit so you can track it.
@@Rafalga84 I'm pretty sure it was too. Everything Garnt relayed made the matter sound fishy right from the get go. Like these were stolen in Heathrow by crooked staff. I would also ship it by a different method such as couriered packages rather than as luggage. Someone could be in LA to receive the equipment
It may sound crazy, but after I've had my luggage lost a few times, I always make it a point to put a Tile tracker in there. Makes me feel slightly more comfortable knowing where it is. The cool thing is there isn't a monthly payment so I can always leave it in my travel bag. It doesn't prevent the airlines from screwing up and losing it, but it gives me peace of mind. (If you do decide to do this, make sure to get the model where you can replace the battery inside. I do this every time before I get on a flight just to guarantee the battery is full).
My favourite moment was at 1:36:22 when Connor just dropped his phone and was trying his best to not ruin the advertisement footage. That’s why you never skip the ads xD
Amazon in the us depends on how close you are to a fulfillment center. By me with prime almost everything is next day. Only reason you can't do that everywhere here is because of the size of the land. There is too much space to be able to cover next day shipping everywhere. When you're in a country like japan or the uk one fulfillment center can cover a MUCH larger area(by population anyway) giving everyone access to next or even same day shipping.
The person Garnt was talking to about the bags was ready for a karen outburst at any moment and knew she'd win. Imagine if it was Meilyne talking to her, she'd be shttting brix.
As an international student who travels back and forth between Mumbai and New York, words cannot describe how relatable garnt’s entire airport experience made me feel, especially the fucking looks of disappointment from some of the staff at the U.S airports.
@@avinashprasad2535 I could kind of add to this, as my family and I would always leave and enter LAX both domestically and internationally. Mainly domestic, every time we had an issue/needed help, it was almost guaranteed the people behind the desk or people managing bags would just roll their eyes or go from normal face to annoyed face, and just be all-around hard to work with. Even recently since I moved out of LA I flew in to be with my family and the person helping me check in my bag, just asked how they’re day was going and he paused, looked up at me, shook his head and never replied to me after that.
With the lost baggage, find out which company is in charge of the baggage handling at the airport of destination and contact them directly. Airlines are also waiting for them to be updated. The baggage handling is often a seperate company and send you the baggage directly, once found. Depending on the t&c, a lot of insurances consider the baggage officially ‘lost’ after a certain amount of time. Considering the value of the contents and its checked in with other baggage, i assume its has extra insurances. So, could be time to file the claim.
Meilyn with the Tequila just gives colombian uncle vibes, they be going around the party with like 3 shot glass and a bottle of aguardiente asking people to join them for a shot
Garnt's wedding was so wholesome that I feel like I should rewatch some clips and stuff whenever I feel down. It really made my days so much better despite how pathetic that makes me sound.
I've worked 3 years for an airport in my country. I can guarantee you your luggage wasn't lost but stolen. "Missing luggage" is a well-estabilished lango for "the client's luggage was violated/stolen and we'll get into less trouble if we say it's missing".
The only thing I'd add is the part where it might be genuinely lost is that many jobs were cut during the pandemic and although travel is approaching pre-pandemic levels, I doubt staffing is and there's a big brain drain from pandemic layoffs, which would lead to way less people being skilled, trained, and experience. That's a perfect storm for not enough resources to handle demand and higher than normal odds that luggage got backed up somewhere. Not high odds, but higher odds than pre pandemic perhaps.
@@dykam I don't even think it's just in Europe, I live in the states, but my parents were on a trip to Europe, their flight was delayed several times, not to mention based on Ryan trahans surviving on a penny for 30 days challenge he got delayed for his flight to north Carolina, showing issues involving not even crossing into another country but even just state to state, it's just currently like a huge issue everywhere based on comments but I haven't done all that much research into it.
I've worked 6+ years in an international Airport and I can guarantee it's neither lost nor stolen. Most cases deals with poor staffing and training practices. It's usually sitting in a bagroom that hasn't been checked yet or staff waiting for you to open a claim to make sure they send it to the correct location. Stealing is more prevalent in countries that are better known for not being as secure in general. It's all on a case by case basis though at the end of the day.
After hearing that dumpster fire of a story about their lost gear I truly hope they 1: Get their gear back and 2: Learn to use an actual freight company with specific infrastructure to get valuables from A to B rather than using airline check in. Especially when you're travelling between two of the most busiest/chaotic international airports in the world. Not blaming Garnt on this one, Wouldn't it be Meyline's job to organise the logistics for the boys' travel? Surely they have the budget to get insured fedex delivery from the UK to the US for $50k worth of kit.
I think the boys and Meyline are too used to Japan standards or something. I also think this is their first big shift with lots of travel so they didn't think it'd go so wrong. Definitely will probably do what you said from now on though.
When you’re traveling with almost $50k worth of equipment, you definitely need to have a better way to ship all that stuff to another country 😕 They were definitely too trusting with the airlines, but hopefully they had insurance just in case any of that equipment is lost or damaged. Also, traveling via air to the US right now is very expensive and overcrowded. Not to mention they’re struggling with staff shortages and cancellations. It’s just a recipe for a disaster to happen.
Ever since they explained the Japanese thing of verbalizing the fact that you're actively listening during a conversation, I've noticed that Joey does it too and I can't unhear it now. Edit: yes, I realize most people around the world do this to some degree. It's just that Japanese people tend to be among those who do it most frequently. The bois have talked about how it was a somewhat jarring adjustment to make after moving to Japan.
@@urokusaki6143 There's no specific time, you just have to pay attention to when other people are talking and Joey in the background verbalizing that he is listening with hums and repeating words or phrases that Garnt or Connor ends with. Examples: (3:00) G: "So I was in charge of bringing all of the equipment uh to america," Then Joey makes an sound of agreement to the statement (3:09) G: "...and already alarm bells were ringing," J: "yeah" G: "'Cuz I quickly..." But these are just the few from the beginning, there's a lot more in the video if you want to focus all your attention to Joey verbalizing that he's listening.
just hearing the story of garnts wedding really puts a smile on my face. especially hearing about him and his boys and how they hype him up and just know what to do with the whole eva celebration is just so good. only 19 years old and just imagining his wedding is like making me look forward to if i ever get married. :,)
@@ednaluna6722 thank you. ive been puking a lot because my stomach feels like its constantly cold, as if it was filled with cold water, but it is not, and puking does not deplete the feeling of a reservoir of coldness. i did a covid test and it isnt covid, so whatever it is i hope it passes quickly
Trash Taste Podcast have achieved so much in the last 2 years. Congratz bois. Congratz Garnt on the wedding. Looking forward to the tour and the american leg of Trash Taste~!!
Honestly Grant's recount of the wedding is so good i can really picture it in my mind. I'm glad. Nice to hear about something good happening in the world for once.
This podcast made me realize why I hate talking to customer service in America and always end up feeling bad or guilty for having a problem with a service.
That reminds me, Mr & Mrs Gigguk changed their twitter pfps into Oreimo ones around the time when they officially tied the knot. Which kinda brings their relationship full circle, in a way.
My wedding’s break the tension moment was when my husband had to check that he had turned off his cell phone when one of the officiants (the cantor specifically) stated “We invite you at this time to join us in the ancient Kabbalistic wedding ritual…and silence your cell phones!”
Listening to Garnt telling about Sydney coming down to Guts' theme and picturing it in my head made me actually tear up. Great episode as always, lads!
The thing about next day delivery in America is that the distances needed to be crossed are massive. Meaning that the cost to fuel the trucks, trains, planes or boats transporting the products; then getting it to your house or place of residence in one day is a tall order.
Im a sucker for musical timing in anime, or games and the mood it simply sets for the tone I like things to portray, so when Garnt explained how Sydney timed it, I just started tearing up imagining the scenerio
I love learning about history of other countries. It’s just so fascinating learning different perspectives on historical figures, wars and ideologies. It helps you understand nations’ politics and stuff like that, especially in Europe. But then finding someone to talk about it can be quite difficult
Literally was the best man to my brother from another mother’s wedding the day this dropped Totally cried and teared up a lot. Known this guy since I was 9yo.
I keep listening to this because the outside perspective of America is refreshing to hear that I’m not crazy and the happy wedding highs are very infectious.
I would recommend getting an airtag or something similar and putting it in your bag so you can track where it's at in case the airline says something like "we don't know where it is" or "it's not at our airline"
Hindsight being 20/20, you should've Airtagged all the equipment. Hold the airlines accountable by telling them exactly where it's located even though they say it's "lost".
Connor devouring multiple pizzas - absolutely lovable! Demondice Karen took herself out with whisky - also absolutely lovable! ... how my affection is gained is quite questionable ... 🤔
Yes Finland has been independent for only about a 100 years but we've had our own culture and province on the Finnish peninsula for much MUCH longer. The only thing that changed considerably 100 years ago was the border and system of government. The Finnish culture and people date back to long before the vikings.
That's the things with "new" countries, I feel. There are many countries that are independent for more or less than 100 years, but their culture runs deep-spanning over centuries.
Just like people who say that Serbia is only exist since 2006. Which technically is true. However culture wise we serbs are way older then Islam and vikings.
I have only being in LA once, and idk if it was because I was with my parents or because we only were on downtown for like a say or because I live in a "dangerous" city in a "dangerous" country in South America, but I didn't feel as unsafe as I thought I would be. I didn't feel like 100% safe either, but I just feel they are just so use to the Japanese "safety" feeling.... I can't even imagine how they would feel if they visit some of the countries and places in South America.....
Can't compare to whichever country you speak of, but you're not wrong, the Boys are just reveling in their privilege. Though I will say, America ain't been 100% lately...
@@jonnyh5858 Normalised gun culture in America is already insane and so out of touch with the other countries. Ofcourse people are going to find it unsafe
Computer programmer here - Connor, the reason your computer connects to wifi instead of ethernet sometimes is because all software is made of duct tape and prayers, nobody knows how to make anything reliable, and the support ticket for that bug got lost in triage several years ago and has since never seen the light of day. Hope this helps!
19:45 Amazon delivers free next-day or even same-day with Prime in the US as well. Your membership was probably restricted by region or you purchased from a third-party seller.
I have US Amazon prime and half the time they stuff up and I still don’t get it next day. I’m in San Francisco 😂. I feel like the drivers are like meh, can’t be bothered with that one today 😂.
@@begformeowcy For me, usually the only time they screw up is when I attempt to do an overnight delivery (usually a 50/50 on whether it'll be delayed to 1 day instead). 1 day delivery is usually on time. I live in SD though. 1 day my parents' place in the suburbs of LA has been consistently on time.
This was one of the most wholesome slice of life TT episodes yet, loved hearing about the wedding and travel shenanigans. Congrats again to Sydney and Garnt!
So glad to finally hear a little more about the wedding. On my wedding, my wife entered the church with the Kanon Pachebel Song version from Neon Genesis Evangelion. Man I was crying like a baby watching her :D only my younger sister and her boyfriend noticed where the song came from.
1:03:45 I’m so glad to hear that Joey and the boys did not object the wedding. If they had (even as a joke) the officiant stops the ceremony and cannot finalize the marriage that day. Garnt and Sydney would have needed to get married another day. So that was likely a reason that Sydney told everyone to stay quiet. It was recently in the news (joke objection stopping a wedding) so I could understand if she saw that story and got nervous about it happening at her own wedding.
The biggest hurdle for Connor to become a history buff is READING. 😂 There is a lots to read and also facts checking where there is multiple points of views for each history events plus there is also mixed up with tales and exaggerations
This is so funny because when I was younger I popped off on the dance floor at a wedding alone and was probably the main attraction for a solid 2 hours because so much child energy was flowing and I still get some flashbacks about it.
back then i would never have the interest to just sit or laydown and listen to a podcast but eversince trash taste came out I find mysefl engrossed listening to all the funny and dumb shit stories they tell and it really keeps me exited for every new episode that comes out, I really think you guys are doing such an amazing job and I cant wait for a new ep. 🎉🎉Congrats to Garnt and Sydney Hope you guys have a Happy Married life!❤

I really like Connor bringing up how the logistics of next day delivery on Amazon can be pretty fucked in the states. I've heard so many horror stories of Amazon delivery drivers being sleep deprived, peeing in bottles to save time, going on insane routes. All for the convenience of having something the next day.
I feel like this is why I really love hearing Connor's point of view on the pod (even tho he can be really monke brain sometimes). But I feel like he has a really good understanding of how things work logistically, even if he can't always explain it correctly
My bf works for Amazon and they have to pee in bottles. He got an angry text from his manager with a bunch of other drivers in a group message. They were mad that the drivers were disposing of the bottles on the Amazon site. They knew they were peeing in bottles and were mad they didn’t dispose of their piss bottle at a random trash can. They aren’t upset their drivers have to literally piss in the van, but instead upset that the bottles are thrown away at the warehouse because they think it’s gross lmfao
Yes! Esp bc the expectation to get next day delivery for a massive country like the US is not realistic. Japan and the UK are so much smaller in area.

I enjoyed the conversation, but was surprised that no one brought up just how big America is compared to England or Europe. It just means that products get spread out more, creating an even bigger logistical problem when it comes to delivery.
I live in Chicago and I get one day delivery for free (never use it tho since I never have to urgently need things to be here tomorrow). I think it is likely that the products they were trying to order is located in warehouses elsewhere (east coast for example) hence the extra cost associate with one day shipping.
Listening to garnt and the boys talk about the wedding I’m sitting there like “damn I hope I can love someone like that one day”
Tell me about it 😔
hearing Garnt compare marrying Sydney to Christmas day was so fuckin hahsnfnbdv I can't, that's so cute, I wish I had that
The officiator saying "Grant" is the most perfect thing.
Also, Karen drinking herself stupid is like, the most Karen thing ever being a long time fan. The second Joey said that I was just like "ah, of course she did."
As someone who works in the hospitality industry in the UK, I hear the kinds of experiences Garnt went through every day from guests checking in the hotel. The issue is that most UK airports decided to straight up fire their staff during covid with little to no payment and an overall horrible treatment. Now that the country is opening up, with the news of how badly they treated their employees, no one wants to work for them, and because unemployment is higher due to covid - as well as more staff being needed to cover the busy summer season - there are so many positions that no one has to compromise by working at the airports. The end result is that the airports are understaffed at the busiest time of year. And during the Fringe and all the music festivals in August it will be even worse. The same thing happened to me while getting a flight to Egypt, which due to delays stacked on delays, and missed connections because of delays, I ended up arriving a day and a half later than planned. Regarding their complaint that the airlines don't give any information or care about resolving issues, what most people don't know is that airlines have nothing to do with luggage. All that is managed by the airport. But the customers get angry at the airlines because they don't know any better. So the staff are pretty jaded from getting yelled at every day by 10 different people over the mistake of some airport in some other country.
Honestly, as a person who live in Bali where tourism is our life, that's pretty fucked up. In here most of worker at least getting compensation from their job or still working but using shift due less of tourist.
So now that tourist is back, we don't have problem with staffs at all
really frustrating that they would rather do that than just pay better.
The thing is, they didn't pay the airport - they paid the airline. It is the responsibility of the airline to get their stuff where it needs to be on time.
@@MyVanir Whoever's responsibility it might be, it's the airport that handles it.
As someone who worked in convenience stores for many years in the past, I feel compelled to point out that the state of customer service in the US mirrors how badly customer service reps are treated. I've been beaten to temporary disfigurement, struck in the head with a bottle of alcohol, held at gunpoint and threatened so many times with physical violence that I've lost track of every instance it occurred.
Too many people in the US have come to see retail workers as punching bags for their frustrations. Retail workers themselves are usually underpaid, overworked and readily discarded by their employers. And the result is an apathetic, jaded work force that has come to reflect how they are treated.
Really sorry to hear that. Hope you have a good day today, at least.
This is what I came to say. Customer service is a reflection of customer base. And the customer base in the US are in general, assholes. That poor lady had no power over the system, but guarantee she had at least a dozen people that day acting like she personally lost their bags.
Tbh this whole tangent of "oh my god I feel so bad for the way she treated me" just sounds so weird, surely these guys have worked atleast once in the service industry and understand how shit it is. I don't understand why people expect someone that is paid minimum wage to go out of their way to to them favours like they're special
And to answer to that is Garnt is ACCUSTOMED with the polite and customer-first Japanese level customer service, so being treated like shit on the first flight to America was both a cultural shock plus depressing experience for him. Try to view it from his POV, and not from the customer service worker.
And even if the customer service worker is being treated unfairly in the first place, it gives the worker NO rights to treat an innocent customer unfairly. It just solidifies the notion that Americans, at least the said industry, lacks professionalism and are barbaric in nature. And tbh, that's neaderthalism is showing. Luckily, as an Asian, I can't share the sentiment because genetics, yeah.

As an Indian, the concept of inviting 60 people to a wedding is to weird to me 😂 I've never been to a wedding with less than 200 people
more like 600 lol
Man I just want 'bout 20 people
samee the last wedding i went to had 460 people
and then 50 more random people join in for the free food and no one even notices
Exactly, specially punjabi weddings
"They do talk about it acutally, they're like: Be ashamed." Connor is very right on that, though I guess the way we learn about German History here is that I never had the understanding that Germany is a young country, rather a very old one that had just a fuck ton of changes to it's geography and naming and stuff. Also, do believe me that we really do talk about our history a lot, especially in school. basically from 7th or 8th grade onwards WW2 is like almost the only subject in history lessons
Maybe the UK should take a page out of Germany’s book. They’ve done some equally fucked up shit in their colonies and pretend like it never happened. What a bunch a hypocrites (not the boys, the uk government in general)
Yeah, although I feel like Germans are becoming less and less shamed over time.
The younger generation can even joke about WWII now
All of that is totally true. Also, my hometown was founded on the limes so we started our lessons of German history during the Roman Empire - I could never think of Germany as a young country.
@@balabanasireti Should modern day Germans be ashamed? They were just born in a country where horrible things happened in the past. They literally did nothing wrong, at least pertaining to WW2.
Learning about your country 's history and feeling ashamed are two very different things.
@@destituteanddecadent9106 I mean we just still kind of have that whole collective guilt thing going on.I don't feel responsable for what happend decades before my time but I feel we are definetly ashamed of what generations before us did but we can joke about it because it is our history. obviously we don't joke about the victims of the whole thing but about the stupidity and the idiocity that is nazi germany. I think it is important to know and to understand that part of our history and therefore be humble about our nation today as i feel these days the line between patriotism and terrible nationalism is incredibly thin.

"If there's one thing you should not do at your wedding while waiting.. it's look at your mum" Legit best advice ever!! I was waiting for my wife to appear and was facing the front of the room with the guests behind me. The second I turned around and saw my mum tearing up I fucking lost it! heavy breathing, sweaty palms the works! I had to stare at a spot in the roof just to stop myself from crying my eyes out XD
Man, my wife walked down the aisle to "At Last I See The Light" from Tangled with my brother playing horn and my uncle on piano, and I totally relate with just the overwhelming beauty and emotions of that moment, she looked like an angel from heaven, and the emotions of all of it were just beyond words to describe it, when the song and timing of the moment is just amazing!
Giving me ideas...
That felt like it was extremely beautiful...
Glad for you man, hope everything is awesome as eve!
That's so friggin' sweet man.
That sounds absolutely beautiful. And incredibly amazing. Sounds like a fun and wonderful wedding. And I wish you and your wife a wonderful marriage ahead ^^
Given that Joey said he'd been in LA for a month on Twitter, we could be at least getting 4 episodes in this studio

Thanks for keep us to date with trash taste timeline
@Real authority América? Lol
Thanks, Garnt, for sharing a little bit of your special day with us. You didn't have to show any of it but thank you for letting us see and experience some of it. I'm so happy for you guys and from our marriage to yours, I hope you continue to grow in that happiness; forever more.
congratulations on your marriage as well. hopefully yall are going strong :D
It's the weirdest feeling to hear that the boys were casually walking around your town. Crazy to think that if you were out and about you could just run into one of them on the sidewalk. Glad y'all had a nicer time in Glendale and Pasadena!
yeah just hearing them say glendale and pasadena is a trip
To think that even with the delays for editing, the equipment situation hasn’t been resolved is a massive frustration, had they at minimum professionally apologized and shown an attempt, the whole conflict would of ended even if the equipment was still lost. Whatever is going on shouldn’t be.
I'm %100 sure at this point that it is stolen. They are just covering their asses. It's also always a good measure to drop an airtag in your bag with expensive shit so you can track it.
@@Rafalga84 I'm pretty sure it was too. Everything Garnt relayed made the matter sound fishy right from the get go. Like these were stolen in Heathrow by crooked staff. I would also ship it by a different method such as couriered packages rather than as luggage. Someone could be in LA to receive the equipment
It may sound crazy, but after I've had my luggage lost a few times, I always make it a point to put a Tile tracker in there. Makes me feel slightly more comfortable knowing where it is. The cool thing is there isn't a monthly payment so I can always leave it in my travel bag. It doesn't prevent the airlines from screwing up and losing it, but it gives me peace of mind. (If you do decide to do this, make sure to get the model where you can replace the battery inside. I do this every time before I get on a flight just to guarantee the battery is full).

You're not supposed to put anything that has batteries in it to the cargo though.

I'm also tearing up, cause of garnts wholesome wedding stories
Really really happy for him
Amazon in the us depends on how close you are to a fulfillment center. By me with prime almost everything is next day. Only reason you can't do that everywhere here is because of the size of the land. There is too much space to be able to cover next day shipping everywhere. When you're in a country like japan or the uk one fulfillment center can cover a MUCH larger area(by population anyway) giving everyone access to next or even same day shipping.
The person Garnt was talking to about the bags was ready for a karen outburst at any moment and knew she'd win. Imagine if it was Meilyne talking to her, she'd be shttting brix.
As an international student who travels back and forth between Mumbai and New York, words cannot describe how relatable garnt’s entire airport experience made me feel, especially the fucking looks of disappointment from some of the staff at the U.S airports.
Wdym 'looks of disappointment' ?
@@avinashprasad2535 I could kind of add to this, as my family and I would always leave and enter LAX both domestically and internationally.
Mainly domestic, every time we had an issue/needed help, it was almost guaranteed the people behind the desk or people managing bags would just roll their eyes or go from normal face to annoyed face, and just be all-around hard to work with. Even recently since I moved out of LA I flew in to be with my family and the person helping me check in my bag, just asked how they’re day was going and he paused, looked up at me, shook his head and never replied to me after that.
Damn
With the lost baggage, find out which company is in charge of the baggage handling at the airport of destination and contact them directly. Airlines are also waiting for them to be updated. The baggage handling is often a seperate company and send you the baggage directly, once found. Depending on the t&c, a lot of insurances consider the baggage officially ‘lost’ after a certain amount of time. Considering the value of the contents and its checked in with other baggage, i assume its has extra insurances. So, could be time to file the claim.
there was a strike so I doubt they will know.
Lolno. Airlines and baggers just tell you "lol cope + mald + L + git gud". Have a good day, adios, do not call us! Ta ta!
Meilyn with the Tequila just gives colombian uncle vibes, they be going around the party with like 3 shot glass and a bottle of aguardiente asking people to join them for a shot
She is not just their manager she is also their mom too 🤣which makes it even funnier
Is more of a paisa mom that wants their kids to join because they are MAN
I can relate 😅
Man, hearing about the Guts theme schenanigans, it's so clear that she's the one. Great catch, Garnt.
I thought the Guts theme was the song from 90s American game show Guts
Garnt's wedding was so wholesome that I feel like I should rewatch some clips and stuff whenever I feel down. It really made my days so much better despite how pathetic that makes me sound.
Why would it make you sound pathetic? You're a fan, aren't you?
I've worked 3 years for an airport in my country. I can guarantee you your luggage wasn't lost but stolen.
"Missing luggage" is a well-estabilished lango for "the client's luggage was violated/stolen and we'll get into less trouble if we say it's missing".
That's really fucked.
The only thing I'd add is the part where it might be genuinely lost is that many jobs were cut during the pandemic and although travel is approaching pre-pandemic levels, I doubt staffing is and there's a big brain drain from pandemic layoffs, which would lead to way less people being skilled, trained, and experience.
That's a perfect storm for not enough resources to handle demand and higher than normal odds that luggage got backed up somewhere.
Not high odds, but higher odds than pre pandemic perhaps.
It's a genuine shitshow at EU airports right now though.
@@dykam I don't even think it's just in Europe, I live in the states, but my parents were on a trip to Europe, their flight was delayed several times, not to mention based on Ryan trahans surviving on a penny for 30 days challenge he got delayed for his flight to north Carolina, showing issues involving not even crossing into another country but even just state to state, it's just currently like a huge issue everywhere based on comments but I haven't done all that much research into it.
I've worked 6+ years in an international Airport and I can guarantee it's neither lost nor stolen. Most cases deals with poor staffing and training practices. It's usually sitting in a bagroom that hasn't been checked yet or staff waiting for you to open a claim to make sure they send it to the correct location.
Stealing is more prevalent in countries that are better known for not being as secure in general. It's all on a case by case basis though at the end of the day.
After hearing that dumpster fire of a story about their lost gear I truly hope they 1: Get their gear back and 2: Learn to use an actual freight company with specific infrastructure to get valuables from A to B rather than using airline check in. Especially when you're travelling between two of the most busiest/chaotic international airports in the world. Not blaming Garnt on this one, Wouldn't it be Meyline's job to organise the logistics for the boys' travel? Surely they have the budget to get insured fedex delivery from the UK to the US for $50k worth of kit.
That’s the way to do it with that much equipment.
guess they r too trusting
I think the boys and Meyline are too used to Japan standards or something. I also think this is their first big shift with lots of travel so they didn't think it'd go so wrong. Definitely will probably do what you said from now on though.
When you’re traveling with almost $50k worth of equipment, you definitely need to have a better way to ship all that stuff to another country 😕 They were definitely too trusting with the airlines, but hopefully they had insurance just in case any of that equipment is lost or damaged.
Also, traveling via air to the US right now is very expensive and overcrowded. Not to mention they’re struggling with staff shortages and cancellations. It’s just a recipe for a disaster to happen.
Ever since they explained the Japanese thing of verbalizing the fact that you're actively listening during a conversation, I've noticed that Joey does it too and I can't unhear it now.
Edit: yes, I realize most people around the world do this to some degree. It's just that Japanese people tend to be among those who do it most frequently. The bois have talked about how it was a somewhat jarring adjustment to make after moving to Japan.
Which part was it at
@@urokusaki6143 There's no specific time, you just have to pay attention to when other people are talking and Joey in the background verbalizing that he is listening with hums and repeating words or phrases that Garnt or Connor ends with.
Examples:
(3:00)
G: "So I was in charge of bringing all of the equipment uh to america,"
Then Joey makes an sound of agreement to the statement
(3:09)
G: "...and already alarm bells were ringing,"
J: "yeah"
G: "'Cuz I quickly..."
But these are just the few from the beginning, there's a lot more in the video if you want to focus all your attention to Joey verbalizing that he's listening.
I don’t think it’s a Japanese thing. You’re a better person if you pick it up.

Now i want to hear Sydney telling her side of the story. Time for the second Sydney interview!
Listening to Garnt telling about Sydney coming down to Guts' theme and picturing it in my head made me actually tear up. Great episode as always, lads!
The thing about next day delivery in America is that the distances needed to be crossed are massive. Meaning that the cost to fuel the trucks, trains, planes or boats transporting the products; then getting it to your house or place of residence in one day is a tall order.
Man Garnt is genuinely the luckiest guy of all time having Sydney as his wife, joey and connor as his boisss and of course having me as his fan.
Im a sucker for musical timing in anime, or games and the mood it simply sets for the tone I like things to portray, so when Garnt explained how Sydney timed it, I just started tearing up imagining the scenerio
I love learning about history of other countries. It’s just so fascinating learning different perspectives on historical figures, wars and ideologies. It helps you understand nations’ politics and stuff like that, especially in Europe.

Yes Finland has been independent for only about a 100 years but we've had our own culture and province on the Finnish peninsula for much MUCH longer. The only thing that changed considerably 100 years ago was the border and system of government. The Finnish culture and people date back to long before the vikings.
What also changed considerably was not being under Russian rule, fuck Bobrikov
That's the things with "new" countries, I feel. There are many countries that are independent for more or less than 100 years, but their culture runs deep-spanning over centuries.

Bro that's so true wtf, it makes so much sense 😂
that's so insane that I've often thought that but never commented it because I thought it was too specific for anyone to relate to....
1:03:45 I’m so glad to hear that Joey and the boys did not object the wedding. If they had (even as a joke) the officiant stops the ceremony and cannot finalize the marriage that day. Garnt and Sydney would have needed to get married another day. So that was likely a reason that Sydney told everyone to stay quiet. It was recently in the news (joke objection stopping a wedding) so I could understand if she saw that story and got nervous about it happening at her own wedding.
have Meilyne check the local craigslist, she might find your "lost" equipment there. it happens all the time

I'd love an episode of just the boys talking about history. Yes history is long and convoluted like they said, but so are the TT episodes themselves
Garnt needs to put that bank statement in the wedding album, holy fuck that is a hilarious story.
The biggest hurdle for Connor to become a history buff is READING. 😂
There is a lots to read and also facts checking where there is multiple points of views for each history events plus there is also mixed up with tales and exaggerations
This is so funny because when I was younger I popped off on the dance floor at a wedding alone and was probably the main attraction for a solid 2 hours because so much child energy was flowing and I still get some flashbacks about it.
I read pooped off instead of popped off.. Had a laugh
back then i would never have the interest to just sit or laydown and listen to a podcast but eversince trash taste came out I find mysefl engrossed listening to all the funny and dumb shit stories they tell and it really keeps me exited for every new episode that comes out, I really think you guys are doing such an amazing job and I cant wait for a new ep.
🎉🎉Congrats to Garnt and Sydney Hope you guys have a Happy Married life!❤
Connor: "I got out of the car and I was wearing a hat." Also Connor: never mentions the hat again.
It was his reasoning as to why Garnts dad didn't recognize him immediately
Chekhov’s hat but it doesn’t go off
