"I ain't got a full set of Hampstead's so as I'm biting it's pinging through the gaps" 😂😂 What a line!!
Watch them try Korean BBQ here: ruclips.net/video/zveUIy-XVpw/видео.html
하이하이
Please invite more working class British to try Korean food
wait. im confused isnt this korean englishman episode? or is it???
@@lgetguud if the food are not Korean then it's jolly. Korean Englishman shows only if it's related to Korea
@@aina6398 I wish they would state where it originated from (Taiwan) instead of letting people assume it's Korean.
I died laughing at Ollie making the guys raise their number as if it was an auction!
Also because of this episode I'm craving Boba...
Also the life or death line. So quick. He could definitely be a comedian.
Same! It’s 11pm but there’s an unmanned cafe down the street. Hope they have some.
same, I used to buy these in the first years of highschool. Bubble tea was big back then
I am getting one here now, same same 😂
Why would you want only the bubbles? How about getting a whole bubble tea?
Props to these gentlemen for giving it a try, Even though they didn't like it or they did, they gave it a fair taste.
I think women loves bubble tea more than men. My girl friends are obsessed with it.
@@aly7379 I'm from Singapore and you're absolutely right ! Girls are definitely more obsessed with Bubble Tea!
I love them for being direct.
well, i didn’t know i like chewies in my drinks until i tried one! it is a craving i would get every once a month
Sometimes I just get the tapioca removed and replaced with cream puff or creamcheese that definitely tastes a lot better. Also matcha is the superior flavor for me.
This episode was really interesting because it felt like this took the cabbies out of their comfort zone. The best part is that different drinks appealed to different people. Some really liked the pearl milk tea, while some were fond of the taro drink.
As a local from Taiwan, I grew up with bubble tea and have tried over 500 more bubble tea shops. I'm happy that it's promoted to the whole world!
As a foreigner living in Taiwan for the past 4 years, i sncerely hope more companies follow Comebuy and that the whole world can get a good quality bubble tea. Not the ... Whatever that was . 😅
bubble tea is very popular in california and has generally become more popular in america~ lots of shops around and generally everyone can find their way to liking it
I had my first bubble tea on our trip to Taiwan in 2003. As a kid, I thought it was the best thing I ever had 😂 I loved that they were made from fresh tea and not powder and nothing beats fresh boba. What's your favorite ship?
My tighty-whitey cousins love bubble tea...I can't stand it! You just never know.
@@valervan there’s a comebuytea right near where I live in California, and it’s some of the best milk tea I’ve had!
You know, people can be very quick to discuss the toxicity surrounding the growth of the internet and social networking etc. I wanted to take a moment to acknowledge the powerful positive side of it - and just how much joy your videos bring me in hard times, guys. im so grateful to have found your channel! Thank you!
and for those hard times; here is my sincere hope they will get easier. And they won't hit as often. God bless
Exactly! I just found it today. 😀 Things are going to get better. We've hit rock bottom. Only way is UP.
Well said!
Bless you🫶✨
I dont give a shit, taxi man funny
I remember being a kid going back to Taiwan and drinking these drinks and no one back in the US knowing what they were. I love how popular it has become and how much people enjoy it now !
The more popular it gets the better since now they are becoming more accessible and with different flavors to try. Last time I had a Mangoneada (Mexican chili mango Style) bubble tea. That thing was amazing.
THEY'RE GENUINELY GENUINELY HILARIOUS 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I still quote my British taxi driver when he heard our air bnb was in a questionable neighborhood, he said the neighborhood was "rougher than a bear's ass" 🤣
😂 you know it's bad if that's what they compare it to 🤣
made my day hahaha
love that saying 👏
Yeah we have a lot of those sort of comparison phrases, some are a bit full on. Don’t look up “drier than a nuns c…” though 😂
That's best thing I've heard all morning 🤣🤣
Ollie is always hilarious: "Does it taste like life or death?" 🤣🤣🤣
As a natural drinker of bubble tea I personally think the pearls are the best part. No one buys bubble tea just for the tea
I like the flavored pearls/Boba in a milk tea!
Me...I hated tapioca lololol
true... in fact, I've borderline thought about just asking for the boba/tapioca 😌
I think I tried boba once a long, long time ago and I vaguely remember hating the tapioca balls. So much so that I don't even remember the type of bubble tea I got or how the rest of the flavor tasted. Just very chewy and not appetizing at all !!!!
@@danielleking262 It's alright, it's preferences. For me I'd be disappointed if my milktea wouldn't come with the tapioca. I think it's not suppose to have a taste, or if it does not too much since ofc the taste of the overall drink would still come from the drink itself, it's like in it for the fun, though if I do say so I do think tapiocas taste nice on its own. I used to order an extra one placed in a small cup and I'd eat just the tapiocas in it after finishing the drink.
확실히 버블티는 한국것이 아닌 대만을 비롯한 동남아국가에서 시작된거니 졸리채널에서 올라오는게 옳다고 생각합니다.
나만 이생각한게 아니구나 이 영상을 본 중국인, 대만인들은 버블티를 한국의 것으로 표현했다고 오해할 수도 있을듯
yep! I am from China.Bubble tea originated from Taiwan .Please appreciate Taiwanese
@@janenewtonoydu3915 Yes! And appreciate Taiwanese sovereignty
@@janenewtonoydu3915 appreciate these nuts
여기 졸리 채널인데요?
I love them cabbies, because them man don’t have no filters and actually proper represents a normal donnies you’d encounter in the UK.
But aren't they all cab drivers in London? Doesn't seem super representative of the rest of the UK does it?
@@groundmasterc ‘low me mate.
@@user-zp4de5lq9i :)
What is donnies?
@@KimAhrina11 don = person
I really like that they come as they are and their reactions are so genuine because they know what they want and are open to try new things! I would love to see more of them!!!
I want a longer version of this , I haven't laughed this much in a while. Also , I think it would be fun to watch them eat typical English food and have them share their memory associated with the food (like how Tapioca scarred Alan) , their humor makes everything so much more fun
Bill: "That's like ... sick?"
Me, a taro lover: 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This episode is sooo funny
Love all the videos and how u introduce the different culture to people who otherwise wouldn’t have ever been involved with it opening up to the world and making it more common in other places
When Ollie comes in, the quality of the video just goes a notch higher.
These guys are just the best! Salt of the earth, real people! And they have sharp wit and great sense of humor! Love from Ohio 💜
As an old timer from Taiwan, yeah the bubble refers to the foam, hence 泡沫紅茶. Time passed and some smart ass decided to add tapioca balls to the drink, hence 珍珠紅茶, pearl tea (no milk). Boba actually referred to a kind of milk tea (no pearl), since boba is slang for big boobs. As time progress everything is just mixed together.
Boba refers to milk tea with big tapioca balls.
@@mariposabay4006 Yes, that’s the new definition. Originally it was just milk tea. There weren’t small or big tapioca balls decades ago, just one size.
Don't care if you call it mince pie mate. If it goes down the ol' chugger nice I'll ave some!!
Thanks for the background story!
Ollie’s biggest contribution in this video:
“it’s TAPIOCA”
He also did the auction joke and another great one-liner
Your consistency and quality of content never disappoints! ❤️
This sounds like a bot, not gonna lie.
this episode was really interesting, especially since I’m taiwanese you can imagine how much boba milk tea I’ve drank, their reactions was really funny to watch
Oh gee they're so cute and their reaction is so bubbly but I'm still not over Ollie answering 'Let's find out.' when one of 'em asked if they're gonna choke on it. Hahahaa
The cabbies are definitely among my Top 3 fave guests on your show 😌
''Did ya put wine gums in it?'' has there been a more British comment? Hahaha
Ollie: who wants to drink out the bag?
Malaysians: 🙋♀️🙋🙋♂️
BOBA IKAT TEPI!!! 😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
tie the top and drink it from the bottom like a savage you are lmao
LMAO
You gotta come to Taiwan to try all kinds of bubble teas or different drinks!
The density of those shops are just like convenient store in Taiwan🤣🤣
These people gave me an ear to ear smile and laugh after months. Thank u this is so funny and adorable at the same time. These guys know how to hangout!! 😊
Lol
The reactions are priceless.
I was very used to the ideas of having "floaters" in drinks since a lot of korean drinks I grew up with have the floaters. Obviously for some people, this can be quite bizarre lol. It's a nice touch ordering different brands of the bubble teas so they get to try them!
Very much enjoyed it!!
Thank you for the great video once again!
Same, as an Asian we’re used to bits in our drinks 😅 I never considered it weird
@@thirstaefortae5057 I can go for bubble tea with extra tapioca right about now 😆
floaters aka biscuit ends that were dipped into the tea
@@Shebeast3 ohhh sometimes I enjoy shortbread dipped in my coffee. Delicious!
@@thirstaefortae5057 Same lol I’ve had bubble tea since I was a kid and I never really thought it’s weird to see stuff inside drinks except maybe when it comes down to having non-asian drinks. (I’m weird that way, sue me lmao)
Love the taxi drivers (and all the guests), they are just so British.
You ended up with an amazing group for this series, every one seems like nice genuine people with great senses of humor. This one in particular was a lot of fun to watch. I'm kind of curious how you came up with this idea and then went about finding cab drivers for this.
1:44 I’m glad they put the Cockney rhyming slang explanation up there 😂 nice to hear old school cockneys they are rare these days
Love the two older cabbies. It's such a wonder for me to see them so open about new things.
Fancy sending a bubble tea with one of these guys my way? Could totally drink one right now 😂
I LOVE ALL OF THEM!! Their personalities shine through so well!!
버블티랑 타로 토란 밀크티... 대부분이 캐나다가 원산인 줄 알고 있지만, 사실 진정한 원산지는 대만입니다!!! 대만에서 만들어져 전세계로 퍼진 홍콩식 밀크티에서 파생된 음료~!
I just wonder do Canada grew Taros?? How could it be native
아~대만이구나
Chewies is a good name. I'm not fond of those types of pearls. I do like the bursting ones though. The cabbies are so delightfully honest and forthcoming with their critiques. They don't hold back! 😂
확실히 이런데서 문화 차이가 느껴지네요 ㅋ 버블티도 그렇고 봉봉 음료도 그렇고 뭔가 마실때 건더기가 있는것을 받아들이기 힘든가봐요!? ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
왜 그게 그렇게 이상한거지!? 하고 매번 놀라게 됩니다 ㅋㅋ 우리는 저 타피오카(펄)도 일부러 먹고 싶어서 추가 하고 그러는데 ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
한국사람도 버블티 안먹는 사람 많아요. 애초에 우리나라에서 시작한 음료도 아니고
This is the problem…everyone doesnt like everything I mean I’ve been to Korea also Thailand and Indonesia in my gap year and I tried different foods …I mean chicken feet no way you like fat n jellied things like gristle things that are chewy…everyone is different… different tastes …makes the world a beautiful place
@@user-yv5hl6nc1t 공차가서 많이 먹는데? ㅋㅋ 공차고 대만꺼지만
공차에서 모임 잡았다가 욕 한바가지 먹었음. 한모금 마시고 손도 안댄 사람도 있었음.

처음 먹는 음료에 큰 거부감 없이 먹어보고 맛을 표현하는 방식들이 잼있어요 ^^
오늘도 웃게 해주셔서 감사해요💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓
As a Londoner, this is probably the most I’ve laughed watching a video in years! Absolute gold 👏👏
ollie and josh laughing hysterically made me laugh also lmfao
I have laughed so hard watching these cabbies. The “Hampstead…pinging through the gaps” line had me on my knees. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
"Boba" is Mandarin for "bubble" (as a borrowed term from English), which is what the balls were originally called when developed here in Taiwan. These days it is also commonly referred to as "zhen zhu" which means "pearl". Depending on the tea stand they might use the two to differentiate ball size (Boba for large, Zhenzhu for small). The brown sugar is because after steaming the balls have honey or sugar added to created that firm chewy texture; brown sugar adds the almost caramel flavor IN the balls.
New challenge for Ollie, Zhenzhu War! Suck up the tea but keep the bubbles in your mouth. The straw makes a most excellent torpedo tube. Use as you would a spitwad. The balls stick like [RETRACTED] and are a horror to try to get out of your clothes just shy of a full laundering.
Wrong, boba stands for big boobies, get your facts straight.
Wrong. Boba is from 波霸.Which refers to the big zhenzhu.
Boba = 波霸，originally a phrase derived from Cantonese, basically means "big boobs". Apparently the namer wanted to say "these balls are bigger, just like boobs". You see it isn't actually a good term, and Taiwanese rarely use BOBA to refer the drinks theses days (still on some shops' menu I guess)
As someone that grew up liking having bits in my drinks like Nata De Coco, having 'floaters' is like best of both world; quench your thirst and the need to chew something 🤣
Boba was the most addicting thing I drank in my life LOL
Samee, now I have another new addition which with oat topping
Not a big fan of tapioca texture. I don’t eat sticky Korean rice cake(떡) for the same reason. I wish I can tolerate the texture of slimy things in my mouth so I can enjoy what 99.9999% of other people enjoy.
Ollie and Josh love each other so much today that they got me to smile as well after a nightmarish two days. Love is truly all it takes apparently. Thank you for being so open, it's contagious. And speaking of contagious, I love seeing your faces finally. It took us almost 3 years but the world is finally learning to walk again. One step at a time. It's really moving to watch.
Love is the whole point of life. If you discover that, you have the answer to everything. A wise man once said "God is love, and those who live in love, live in God." I hope tomorrow is a better day, and that whatever you're struggling with it gets easier.
In the Philippines, we call this a “milk tea”. And the bubbles as “pearls”.
well, bubble tea is originally from Taiwan, and yes we call it pearls milk tea
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣진짜 유머러스하신 기사님들~ ㅋㅋㅋㅋ저도 버블티 안먹는 1인으로 반응에 공감하면서 웃었네요~❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Loving the new subtitles setup! Great content as always!
We call the bubbles pearls in Taiwan!
We also had that period of time when everyone just love to trick the kids into thinking those bubbles are actually frog eggs lol
I’m old enough to have eaten tapioca pudding and as schoolkids we called it frog’s spawn.
I think its only fair to inform all bubble tea first timers of the fact that there are solid toppings in their drink. It helps prevent accidents. But honesty I don't get the dislike for pearls. Besides some that are way too sugary or artificially chewy, pearls are gold and delicious! Also it would've been great for them to try fruit bubble teas, those are so underrated and swept under the bus by all the milk ones.
Thanks so much for this episode, bubble tea (particularly the fruit ones) are a blessing of the universe.
Ollie's humor always shines
As a boba barista, I *loooove* seeing people try boba for the first time. It’s so heartwarming to see people enjoy the stuff you enjoy! ☺️
I didnt realize I need such content w these guys on it, got my stomach hurting from laughing too hard
Ollie's presence just brings so much joy! He literally lifts the mood and vibe of the video.
Funniest episode I've watched here. These old blokes are killing it 😂😂😂😂.
I basically grew up with bubble tea, and it's really interesting to see people who's never tried it and their reactions. Didn't know tapioca pudding was a thing in the UK tho
8:15 "Because of the tapioca?" in unison is my new favorite Jolly thing.
LOVING the variety of reactions, tastes and of course… the accents and reviews! So many memorable lines! ✨👌🏻
Can’t beat a London cabbie lol discovered you guys few weeks ago and loving the journey through your back catalogue. Great stuff
This was really enjoyable to watch! Would like to share that in Singapore we call it bubble tea as the "bubble" refers to the foam that appears after shaking the tea. And we call the tapioca jellies "pearls. Thanks for making me jolly this day :D
what?? I've not heard of bubbles = foam in Singapore before!
@@quiksilver0000 ohh haha, maybe not exactly the foam! But more of when you shake the drink, there is bubbles XD
Lol, really? I thought we just call the bubbles, pearls. haha
This video was so fun to watch! I laughed so much. You were having such a good time, it made my day. Thank you.
I love them! They Are All So Sweet And Humble And Real! I Really enjoyed Them It Was Like Watching Your Dad Or Your Grandfather Having A Good Time.
“Don’t give up your day job you too!”
Well... they already did 😂
Wait what happened
@@samsaumaralikhan before they started their youtube channel, They both have dayjobs. Josh worked at sales in language school and Ollie worked in a charity (homelessness charity)

The cockney slang line is absolutely priceless. I was so brown bread after it.
I'm so happy to see these workers having this experience !!!! Guys you're amazing !!!!!
really glad you found em and made a series with them. They were always such a joy to watch.
I love these guys! They’re so funny and they’re humor is 🤌🏻 please keep bringing them back
Not Josh wheezing, "I don't know what's real anymore" 🤣
I really hope the cabbie series will come back!!
Im watching these over again so many times, always makes me smile, laugh and feel good
The cab drivers always brighten my day. Thanks for a wonderful video as always. Gotta say Bill and Al are my favorite group though.
These two Englishmen always serve out the best videos when I'm bored, thank you for everything!
Their reactions to the tapioca pearls had me laughing till I wheezed 😂😂
학생, 택시 기사, 래퍼,,, 다양성이 있어서 참 좋은 것 같아요. 조쉬님은 진짜 어딜가든 인싸처럼 상대방한테 잘 맞춰주시네요.
The cabbie videos and your footballer videos from the other channel are my fave! My new comfort videos i watch at least once a day!
I love that these people give honest food reviews. It's so funny and fun.😆😆
As a big boba drinker this was so entertaining. My parents would prob react the same, I've tried to get em to sip but nope lol. I need light Tapioca too 😂 get tired of chewing after a bit!!
Well done guys, you're an inspiration! I didn't intend to watch it all the way through, but with great personalities from you both and the cabbies, the good editing, and a nice variety of people and drinks, I really enjoyed the video!
I love the content on both channels so much, it's always a delight to see the interactions with different guests and I find myself laughing along with everyone. These bring me joy during my lunch (with the occasional food envy) 😍😂😝
I love the taxi driver’s accents! I could listen to them talk all day 😊
I don’t know if it’s considered an “old” food but we still have tapioca pudding in my state and can find it in most stores with a deli. My grandma used to make an instant version that somehow always came out hard. Most places that make it just put tapioca in instant vanilla pudding, but it’s oddly good in small quantities.
this is such a funny video! i love how the cabbies were all willing to give it a try and their reactions were really quite hilarious. Anyway, I believe that the "bubble" in "bubble tea" comes from the layer of foam that forms on top of the drink after the it is shaken to mix it up!
These are the best kinda videos, smiles and laughs!!
Paul being 41 was the biggest shock of the video. Would’ve guessed early 30s at the latest! And I bet dog has some insane tales
Pleaseee more episodes with these lovely taxi drivers !
rewatching their taxi drivers videos again and oh, I would love to see them try other Korean foods and travel to Korea maybe. They are just so lovely to watch and were willing to try stuff even when they don't like it. 🤣❤️
I love these guys!!! Keep filming the taxi drivers!
I love the design of boba tea, it's so easy to take it to go because of the top. This has made me decide to leave early for work to stop and get milk tea 😀 😍
Tapioca pudding is a classic comfort dessert in the US. Surprised that's been lost and was a thing you hadn't really heard of.
That's what I was thinking like uhm i grew up in the US everyone knows tapioca pudding
It was a thing growing up in Ireland too also seen as old fashioned and died off. My Mum loved it I couldnt stand it.
It was served as part of school dinners when I was a lad but that's 48 years ago. I think tapioca has fallen out of favour since then and it wasn't very popular back in my day! It used to be called frogspawn.
@@kysthanks8352 I live in the US too, I’ve heard of it but have never seen or eaten tapioca pudding.
@@Orangeyougladx3 same here. I’ve seen it at the grocery store but never thought to buy or try it. No one I know eats it either as far as I’m aware.
I love that they just fed taxi drivers really well. Its hard work, thanks for treating them
Thanks for another amazing video !!
Love these types, your guests are Brilliant 💗
Need to visit with the twins again, Please x
Laughed so hard when Mr. Alan talk about his tooth ^^
Thanks Jolly for another entertaining content!
Their sense of humour is 10/10 😂😂😂
I should be studying. But I needed this study break of laughing. This is too cute and wholesome! Amazing.

I really love this bunch. They're awesome. Put more of them on your vids
bring back the british cab drivers!! love the, they r so entertaining haha
