@@ThairishTimes great video Pete. I've had messages with Pat before about his brief Leeds background and he's from my childhood area of Horsforth. Could you and Pat do some live vlogs, you're a good combination. Maybe walkabouts with him, he can do the history and you can do the banter with the locals. It would be very entertaining.
Excellent piece. IMO Pat has the best Thai/Bangkok related channel going. He's humble, funny, extremely knowledgable.... editing and production is excellent, and his relaxed easy to understand delivery/presentation is relaxing to view (never boring). A real cut above most others out there. Great interview BTW.
There are definitely many travel "vloggers" on RUclips and so many are from rookies that know nothing about Thailand, fail to do research; thus, their travel experiences in Thailand seem to be entertainment for them and maybe their friends and family. Since I have lived in Thailand for 17 years (lived/ worked near Bangkok- now living in Isaan retired) I follow 4-5 different "vloggers" that suits my interests. Bangkok Pat is one of them since he gets into the historical background of Bangkok; Pete gets into interviewing interesting people living in Thailand; "Retired Working for YOU" and another one about living in Isaan. It was nice to watch this interview and learn about Pat's background and was surprised to see him have such a quiet personality. Good fellow for sure.
Since I started watching Pat's channel I'd wanted to know something of his back story. Thanks Pete for bringing it to us. And my best wishes to both of you.
Pat's fast become one of my favourite expat Thai vloggers. I like the history. It's a unique take on Thailand from an expat - and he clearly puts a lot of time and effort into his films. Don't go down the lazy live stream route, Pat!
Pete, thanks a lot, that was a lot of laughs mate, although you left out the part where we had to escape my cat fan club, who followed me, thinking I was excluding them from a new video. Don't forget my next video intro....
You two guys are a very welcome addition to the Bangkok cultural scene. Bangkok Pat seems like an interesting character, although I have never met him. Cheers, guys . Great job.
Just want to commend your bravery in sharing your life experiences and some low points in your life. What came through is a real authenticity that is really rare in these candid style videos. My own life experience resonates with some of those you mentioned. Thanks for sharing this.
Another excellent interview of a RUclips legend! Just love knowing more about Pat because I so thoroughly enjoy all his videos and cinematography. He’s a real artist and should have half a million subscribers. Thanks for bringing these interesting folks to us!
We are watching and learning Pat, keep up the good work, Have lived here 13 years ,now more Aussies come live here thanks for your wise stories of Thailand.
Only discovering your guys content in Feb '22. Guys this is great stuff. The family and I have always loved Bangkok/Thailand/SE Asia. We're in Australia so no travelling for two years now. It's content like this that keeps the dream alive. Big thumbs up! Thank you
Thanks !!! Enjoyed it. Honest, open talk, there aren’t many like you guys on youtube, keep going, I will be watching! And please, keep it that way, it’s really nice how both of you do your channels, your work, thanks!!! And yes, I absolutely agree, Bangkok in the 80ties was fab !!!! I I used to go to BKK twice every year starting in 1986 because of my business and really enjoyed it, it was absolutely chaotic, but so nice, no mobile phones!!!! We lived in the present without distractions, and if we wanted to contact our families, there was only POST RESTANTE, remember well all those trips by boat from KaonSan to the general post office , i remember the coconut cookies we bought by the piece, ….many days me and some friends would just hop on a public bus without knowing where we wanted to go….just got off when we liked some old buildings or if an area looked interesting……so often we got completely lost, but always found our way home, somehow
Hi from Chiang Mai! I really enjoy both of your videos. Bangkok Pat because of bringing out an often neglected history with a keen sensitivity. Thairish interviews done with a sympathetic and sincere line of questions that can make people who make appear ordinary area caught in the extraordinary circumstances of their lives. Kudos to both of you. Take care and stay safe. Cheers, Keith(old international aid worker)
It’s November 7th as I write this and I just watched this video. As an avid fan of Thailand RUclips videos I was instantly drawn in to this video of Bangkok Pat. You did a great interview Peter. Pat is an absolute legend. My career before retirement was 40 years of dealing with the public so I naturally I can see through 90% of the BS that was part of my everyday. There’s so much to say about this video and the great interview you did Pete. I just hope one day I get to meet both of you. 2 absolute legends and that’s my 2 cents from this guy from America 🇺🇸
Just saw this! Got to say, thanks! I've wondered about "Bangkok Pat's" story. He has such informative videos and they have become my favorite and 'go to' RUclips videos. We've visited & live part time in Bangkok for a few years now, and his videos have informed, explained, and shown us things about Bangkok we would not have learned in 'many years' of living here fulltime. Thairish Times, thanks, will be checking out your vids now!!
how amazing is that ! I only just finished the video of the lady who's been in LOS for 52yrs and in the comments I mentioned I liked BBK Pat's videos then went to bed , couldn't sleep and switched on computer but while lying in bed I was thinking when I woke up I would check your site out and see if you have done him and low and behold when I got on RUclips You had a video of BBK Pat stareing me in the face !!!! saved me going through all your videos to find it , was like winning lottery thanks mate keep it up
Pat's channel is great. I feel exactly the same way you guys do about youtube., I get fed up with people coming to Malaysia (where I live) for a couple of weeks and spunking out a load of videos with clickbait titles and this is the BEST food/place/hotel etc. While I have been ignored for years. (But deep down inside I know my videos are crap) However, Pat's are excellent and super informative and he deserves many, many more subscribers and views.
You finally got him. I love the intellectual talk. Epic interview. I was there 12 years ago and I think he's right. The charm is going away but I still love it and am coming back soon. Much love good Sir. Pat is a super star! (you too) ;)
A great video featuring my 2 favourite Thailand RUclipsrs. You done a top job on the interview Pete, some good questions and your relaxed style allowed pat to open up and share his interesting story. Would be nice to see you 2 collaborate more often
1997 Bangkok was pretty similar in many areas. Khao San Road wss first place we stayed. Some places were tired and worn out then and they are still the same. It was pre sky train to airport and getting around was always tuk tuk, taxi etc. Elephants under the motorway overpass at Sukhumvit Soi 1. Some of the same bars still in same location. Out of Bangkok and Koh Samet was a delight. From recent videos there have been changes there. I still like the city abd always find new things to do and places to explore. Wandering around the back streets of Sathorn can be fun. Or just walking from A to B, even quite long distance, rather than jumping on the train reveals new things. Going over the other side of the river for Icon Siam was not something really on the radar before but streets around there need exploring. It's a fascinating city and one that always intrigues. Back there next weekend.
Thairish Times & Bangkok Pat, really interesting insight into Bangkok Pat's life. Thank you for sharing. Can't imagine Bangkok with no condominiums and shopping malls, sounds more exciting back in the day though!
The teacher being a bully is something that happens all to often I was bullied by multiple teachers growing up then my son had to deal with that once he was brought to tears in front of his entire school that's where I drew a line caught an assualt charge for smacking up the teacher and he has been out of the public school system ever since
My favourite two RUclipsrs in one video. Thank you for taking the time to make that video, Tuk Tuk Pete It was nice hearing a bit about Bkk Pat as he always provides some great information on everything he does, good to hear about him.
Where did 32mins go. As the saying goes, time flies when you're having fun. Very interesting vlog with Pat...both you guys are the real deal & deserve so many more subscribers on both your channels. Well done Pete & Pat. You should absolutely do more stuff together.
Excellent video, been following a few different expat vlogs for 8 or 9 years now, recently discovered your and Pat's videos. Both great, keep up the good work!
Do like BKK Pat's intro, a James Bond swagger you might say 😎. Pat has a great info channel and really enjoy his knowledge/history of the area. Another top interview Pete. Cheers to you both.
Very interesting vlog, really enjoyed it. I love the history of people and places and how we all end up where we do and why. Please keep in touch with one another and bring us more of your thought provoking ideas and insights.
Great video just watched your interview with Pat on his channel now watched this 👌. As you was talking about RUclips I would rather watch videos that are genuine and authentic like on both your channels then ones that are just made to fit the latest trend
I am behind in watching this video but nonetheless, I really enjoyed it. I like Pats videos, they are different and for someone that loved this city for 28 years, it brings back great memories. Like Pat I like history and the stories behind the streets are so interesting to me. So thank you for the interview. it was very well done, I like your laid back approach. Keep up the good work.
One of the many things I like about your channel TT is sometimes I have watched other RUclipsrs and NOT liked the other RUclipsrs at all as I've thought they were PRATT'S, or ANAL, or SANCTIMONIOUS, or ALL three! Have STOPPED watching them and even BLOCKED some as I found them so annoying. Not mentioning any names of course. But after seeing some of these RUclipsrs interviewed on your channel I have seen a totally different side to them. A more relaxed side. Discovered what makes them who or what they are, and as a result, ended up thinking hey they are ALL RIGHT PEOPLE AFTERALL! ... Thanks TT ... Yes, I'm still Living and Learning in Life (-:
Thanks, I try and peel back the layers and show a person for who they really are which is difficult for other RUclipsrs to do in a highly edited video.
His story of school times resonates sounds about the same age as myself the teachers back then were hot or cold in regard to attitude to race relations can leave a negative impression on a youthful mind especially in his case just losing a parent must have been extremely hard for him. Always good to see these people eventually find a level path able to progress in some way.
You certainly find them. Shopping Malls came along in the 2000's? There have been some around since the late 1980s and 1990s. In fact, in the 90S, Phra Pinklao road went mad with mega malls. Plus Bangkok was a skyscraper city even then.
Great interview of Pat. Like how Pat opens up. I'll be checking out more of your videos. Next time I drop down to BKK I'm going to look you up Pat and have coffee and lunch along with a good chat.
The walk at the beginning reminded me of reservoir dogs !!!!!!!!!! Great vlog Pete to a great story . Pats channel is so amazing the detail and effort he puts in makes his vlogs so interesting. His back story is very moving to what happen when he was younger then deciding to go to Thailand to find out more about his mothers side of the family and to now where he is with his tours and RUclips channel. Thanks for doing this interview and the length was great. Ps I hope that was the gear stick you were pulling at the end 🤣🤣 stay safe
2001 I remember the days when there’s were more cheaper food courts and better value for money. On his videos when he talks to the camera is he using a tripod? I agree with all he said about Bangkok turning itself into shopping mall city. But look closely at those malls. Same shops same merchandise. One mall is just a clone of another.
Thanks for another interesting video. Im sure you could do another one with Pat since he probably have a slightly different view of the thai life. Its extremely interesting to learn from people who are open to share like the ppl you interview do. Creds to both of you!
Hot Seat with Pat! Happy to see you retuning the favor! Also great to hear Pat talking about himself, he’s just as interesting as the city he narrates 😎
Amazing guy. Probably grew up in the same type of area as my father though maybe a decade later. I didn't know there were Thai people in the UK back then. I adore his videos on the Thaiger describing the history of different areas. Wish you both the best.
Well, well well look at this!? My two favourite RUclipsrs in the same video? Haha, Nice interview and I love the way you'd filmed and edit the introduction of Pat at the start. Good on you mate :D
Fascinating on the search for family history. My Mother did extensive geneology work for years. I have bins of her hard copy documents that were meticulous. I was a cop for nearly 30 years (yes, I am from Chicago....lol). I have never seen an investigative case (fille) that comes close to what Mom put together. It still amazes me the work she put into that. Most extensive "family history" case I have ever seen. Absolutely remarkable. Would make Marcel Guillaume blush.
Hahah , that's when i was there in BKK in the mid to late 80's . BKK was insane Patpong and Patpong 2 and 3. Soi Cowboy was out of control , those were the days.
Pete great in-depth interview .........great insight into Pat's very interesting background. Oh by the way Up Mayo.....the Dubs are dethroned ....hopefully go on and win Sam now after so much heartbreak
Thanks guys you finally did it 😂.
we did indeed Rob

Yes and the man in front of the camera is a genuine top bloke too not fake

Big up Pat, you can tell he's a good one, working class, raised in a multicultural society and knows his music.
Pat’s a top bloke 👍🏼

Bangkok Pat is a legend.
He is indeed
I watch Bangkok Pat and he is amazing. Agree with school, I went to primary school in UK in the 70,s and 80,s and it was absolutely brutal sometimes
Describing London you hit the nail.
Honesty with Pat, Pete & Chris is absolutely awesome. Only 3 Guyz I watch. Fantastic real stories and great interviews Pete with all.
🐘🇹🇭🇭🇲🙏B
Much appreciated!
Open minded, knowledgeable and sincere, Pat's the Man!
I second that!
Big fan of Bangkok Pat
Good dialogue Pete & Pat👍👍 ~ I think that we are where we’re supposed to be ~ Appreciate the moments….and move along on…
Cheers!
been following his vids for a while... a very wise and knowledgable man!
We are watching and learning Pat, keep up the good work, Have lived here 13 years ,now more Aussies come live here thanks for your wise stories of Thailand.

Thanks Brian, it’s a funny ol world
Good vid lads , iv watched Pats vids and often wondered about his background. Keep up the good work.
Thanks Terry👍🏼
The best interview 🎤
1997 Bangkok was pretty similar in many areas. Khao San Road wss first place we stayed. Some places were tired and worn out then and they are still the same.

31:56 ... The Irish Pit Bull suits well in a Tuk Tuk .😂
I don't . Always hit my head

Glad you liked it Ashley, cheers. The old BKK does sound exciting
The teacher being a bully is something that happens all to often I was bullied by multiple teachers growing up then my son had to deal with that once he was brought to tears in front of his entire school that's where I drew a line caught an assualt charge for smacking up the teacher and he has been out of the public school system ever since
I've encountered a few bullies who were teachers too. Terrible
My favourite two RUclipsrs in one video.
Thank you for taking the time to make that video, Tuk Tuk Pete
It was nice hearing a bit about Bkk Pat as he always provides some great information on everything he does, good to hear about him.
Thank you very much mate for the huge compliment
Where did 32mins go. As the saying goes, time flies when you're having fun.
Very interesting vlog with Pat...both you guys are the real deal & deserve so many more subscribers on both your channels.
Well done Pete & Pat.

Thanks T Man, glad you liked it. We had good fun making it🙏🙏🙏
Thanks for sharing, it is always very inspiring to hear about overcoming obstacles and rising to the challenges. Good on you mate. 👍

Awesome, thank you!
Sounds very much like my background, thanks for sharing, interesting interview
Thanks Pete. It was nice interview n get to know him more. Like his attitude. Didn't know he's half Thai.
He’s a very nice fella. I love his knowledge and effort he puts into his channel
Excellent video, been following a few different expat vlogs for 8 or 9 years now, recently discovered your and Pat's videos. Both great, keep up the good work!
Thanks very much Robert, we both appreciate the support mate
Do like BKK Pat's intro, a James Bond swagger you might say 😎. Pat has a great info channel and really enjoy his knowledge/history of the area. Another top interview Pete. Cheers to you both.
We had good fun filming the intro for this. Pat’s a top fella
I find the historical backgrounds interesting . Keep it up Pat
Very interesting vlog, really enjoyed it. I love the history of people and places and how we all end up where we do and why. Please keep in touch with one another and bring us more of your thought provoking ideas and insights.
Thanks Mark, glad you liked it. I agree with you that's why I enjoy making these. Myself and Pat will do something in the future for sure
Great interview. Never realised Pat was half Thai , like many on here.

Good stuff, Pete
Interesting stuff and honest. It's good that the vloggers connect like this too. United in curiosity. Good luck to y'all. 🌱🌅🌲
It is indeed, Pat is a top fella
Pat runs a great channel,,thanks for this Pete,,
You’re welcome Geoffrey
Pete, a very nice, interesting and good/quiet interview you make with an interesting person. I go check his channel. 🙏
Thank you Gert, Pat’s a gentleman
Amazing guy. Probably grew up in the same type of area as my father though maybe a decade later. I didn't know there were Thai people in the UK back then.
I adore his videos on the Thaiger describing the history of different areas. Wish you both the best.
The best youtuber out there imo. Thanks for watching. It was a pleasure to interview him
A great video and interesting story.
Thanks, it was a cool story indeed 🙏
Well, well well look at this!? My two favourite RUclipsrs in the same video? Haha, Nice interview and I love the way you'd filmed and edit the introduction of Pat at the start. Good on you mate :D
Thanks buddy, we had good fun shooting this
@@ThairishTimes still watching! Damm Pat is really open about is life! Amazing stuff!
Fascinating on the search for family history. My Mother did extensive geneology work for years. I have bins of her hard copy documents that were meticulous.
I was a cop for nearly 30 years (yes, I am from Chicago....lol). I have never seen an investigative case (fille) that comes close to what Mom put together. It still amazes me the work she put into that. Most extensive "family history" case I have ever seen. Absolutely remarkable. Would make Marcel Guillaume blush.
Sounds like she would have made a great detective. So any Irish blood in you?
Hahah , that's when i was there in BKK in the mid to late 80's . BKK was insane Patpong and Patpong 2 and 3. Soi Cowboy was out of control , those were the days.
Haha, I love the San Andrea's tune at the end. Another interesting interview, keep 'em coming.
Cheers Mark I thought the music suited the cool graffiti and tuk tuk in the laneway
Where is the Bangkok Diaries redemption story? That's what the people want to see! Big numbers.
HahHa
I had teachers like that in Scotland.
Pete great in-depth interview .........great insight into Pat's very interesting background. Oh by the way Up Mayo.....the Dubs are dethroned ....hopefully go on and win Sam now after so much heartbreak
Cheers Harry glad you liked it. The Dubs are taking a break this year, we’re letting the others have a chance😉
Would be nice to see Mayo do it to be fair
Another great vlog Pete!
Thanks Stan😁
