not just asia, italian parents are like that as well. i had a coworker who used to drive his truck down there all the time and whenever he stopped at a company around lunch time, they made him eat a giant bowl of pasta and gave him more food for the road, like "what you're in a hurry? well sad for you we won't unload your truck until you're done eating."

@@FragmentedR_YT Apparently Ichika knows about the girls crushing on him tho, he just acts dense on purpose to avoid screwing over the friendships (not sure though)
As a fellow Filipino, I'm jealous of Aki having more welcoming and open minded parents. My folks are 2 sides of the same coin, my dad is ok with me having a social life, but gets on my ass on what to do as a job. Whereas my mom is fine with my job decisions, but hates any social interactions I try to make. My life is very polarizing when they are involved in the worse way...
Parents are very special, and worth nurturing above all others. However, nothing should curtail your life decisions. Good luck with your chosen job, and have fun with your friends!
My mom is more on the supportive one and my dad pushes me to get his dream job. Mom just goes do what you want and love. I still wouldn't change them for anything in this world.
When Garnt said he had to learn how to make eye contact, I felt that to my core. It’s seriously difficult to maintain eye contact without seeming like you’re staring into the person’s soul.
I remember feeling so awkward doing it but then realizing that the other person also feels weird and now I just look at them in the eye till they look away for a bit and reset. Bam, social hack.
Imagine going to military school and being shouted at by one of the instructors to the point of crying then a few years later you find out they have an Otaku channel and they do commentary on Japanese Culture
I really enjoyed Garnt's thoughts on cancel culture (people are people, even influencers; why is their ability to make mistakes slammed) and the morality of watching true crime (feeling sick bc this entertainment is lives being ruined and that someone was sick enough to do these things).
a thought that came up for me while listening to it was like, we've been watching this been put on celebrities for years and engaged in it (some more than others ofc). But we're only addressing it now? its interesting how we suddenly become aware because there's a bigger connection between fans and creator now
yeah I completely agree, he really gave great insights and opinions through out, especially towards the end where they were discussing cancel culture where he more or less quote ob quote said: "the barrier between reality and fiction has kind of been slowly broken down..to the vast majority of public this is just entertainment, this is listening to high school drama and gossip, like what it's slowly turned into is, our entertainment has just become other people's reality"
@@alodiah2422 If you're interested in how mass media blurs that line between reality and fiction and it's ramifications writ large you should check out postmodernist like Debord's 'Society of the Spectacle' from the french '68 protest movements as well as Jean Baudrillads' writing, still incredibly prescient and relevant.
"I Killed My Military Sergeant To Kiss A Bottom Boy" "My Crush Dropped Me In a Third World Country and Left Me There To Date Someone Else" "I Live Under The JROTC Classrooms Boards To Secretly Shine My True Love's Shoes Until Gradution"
I agree but I also feel she got interrupted a lot. Maybe she even doesn't feel like that. But I just hate it when that happens. And when she doesn't pick up on where she left off I'm also angry because I want to know how it goes on but I don't get to know because she got interrupted. (I love everyone of them, so this is not me saying: That evil person hurt Aki.)

As far as Americans being accepting about weird hobbies it really depends on where you are especially back in 2007. If you're in a small town area you like anime back in 2007 you would get bullied.
It's a half and half. I've liked anime since 1st grade and shared it readily. Most people were interested. Occasionally some idiot would try to pick a fight, but belittling their intelligence was a go to. It only came to a fist fight, like, twice.
@@brendenclapp7304 is it? I don't even recall what exactly happened. I remember getting into fist fights over other stuff, so maybe I'm a little jaded.
I really got into anime back in high school with the anime club we had. I just remember that club meeting during my freshman year were always what I looked forward to, and that was late 2008 to 2009. After the people I knew graduated, someone else took over and it wasn't as fun, so I just hung out with other people I knew.
Pre 2007 and in a smaller town omg I got so fucking bullied during my life about my nerd hobbies. The times just starting catching up with it by the time they’re talking about.
I can't believe Aki went through JROTC and a notoriously tough one. Now I'm just imagining her in a drill instructor's uniform yelling at cadets and it's kinda funny.
We had an on campus rifle range in our JROTC bunker. I thought that was normal for all schools. Plinking .22s during lunch while a couple of teachers brought in 9mms and .45s was the norm. 'Merica, fuck yeah. The 90s was a magical time.
Hell, I'm Japanese, and I went though JROTC school my first high school year in America. It's was one of those hardcore military school, school campus in middle of bumfucknowhere, dorm life, and JROTC training 24/7, completely cut off from the outside world. This was 30 years ago though. Still kinda traumatized lol Edit: Keep in mind, this was BEFORE the internet days. Internet wasn't a big thing until my early college years. So physical seclusion was essentially a complete isolation from rest of society.
Aki is right Filipino parents are absurd when giving your friends food they will literally shove you a ton of foods until your stomach can't hold it anymore. They will treat you like a family even if this is the first time they see you
Soooo... can we still get a full female crew episode of trash taste with Aki, Syd and Meilyne? Edit: I think that would still count as a Trash Taste. Now all 3 was already on the podcast, and they are not unknown for most of the watchers.
when they talked about cancel culture connor mentioned how there’s not enough people who say “let’s just wait it out and hear from both sides first” i was one of those people who preferred to wait it out but i stopped voicing that opinion now just because if you say that you want to hear the other side you will get attacked by the mob for not hating one side enough cancel culture is so ridiculous
It is! I've never had a Twitter, and at this point I probably never will, because I will inevitably feel terrible about someone getting canceled, and that just doesn't sound good for my mental health
I have to be completely honest. I know how close she is to all of these guys, but this was actually the most balanced and professional feeling interview of all of them I’ve seen. I could easily see her as a fourth chair on the show permanently.
@@Bowblaxian_Tricknology I don't see why they're annoying, other than probably being the ones to interrupt the most. Connor's the most chill, but only because his life was Great Value John Wick and a chess anime all in one.
*Joey, Garnt & Aki talking about Thai food* Garnt: I can’t remember the English name of it Joey: Don’t worry, Mudan will figure it out Mudan: Am I a joke to you
Except the fact that a career does not mean good money. It simply means a stable line of work. You can make a career off of working as a bartender and be paid not much more than minimum wage.
@@SiMeGamer The way I understood it is it's more a perspective on things rather than an objective value. Kinda like "I only got paid this much for all this effort vs. I got paid so much for barely any effort" Taking your bartender example it could be: Person A: "I have to keep the bar clean, keep track of customers, mix drinks properly and pay close attention to everything and only get paid barely over minimum wage. This sucks!" Person B: "I get to talk to many different people while I mix drinks and clean stuff? Wow, that's awesome!" Two different perspectives on the same position. For one it's a job, for another it's a career.
@@Madnacc I still wouldn't call that a career because nothing says this is the path one will choose to pursue regardless of the perspective. But it is a nice way to look at that bartender example. I appreciate that perspective :]
@@adrianherbert5844 It's never been Innocent until proven Guilty it's always been Guilty until proven Innocent, and if you're a Minority it's Guilty until they physically can't justify throwing you in prison
My husband heard the part about Aki eating while a narrarator is listing what had been done to a victim. His response was "my life every freaking evening!"
As a Spotify listener here , also (sorta Normie) thank you for introducing the guest ! I’ve never watch any of your other channels so I appreciate y’all thinking about us “Normies”
Ayyy now that Aki has been on trash taste we can finally have a couples episode! Joey and Aki, Garnt and Sydney and Connor and his hand!!! Edit: You don't know how long I've waited to say this
I can't believe this happened for real. I even remember reddit comments saying "we should respect their privacy and wait till Aki is ready." Man, what a blessing. Such a good convo
In spain. It's also very common for people to just call each other fat as a compliment. It's a sign of affection calling somebody fat. The eating thing is also a thing is spain. Like my grandma right after saying you look fatter than last time she'll offer you jamón and say that its not real food and doesn't make you fat.
Fun fact. Although Australia doesn't have much dialect change verbally in Australian sign language (ASL) there is a huge dialect difference. Some entire words change and some areas actual signify the end of a signed sentence by signing the letter a. This dialect difference is so big that the ASL signbank (online dictionary) asks what state you want your sign in.
I like how Aki keeps it so real. She is not afraid to say what she really thinks, unlike so many other creators that just go with the online mob mentality to stay brand safe.
Aki is the definition of mob mentality. She always tweets about what's relevant that she barely or maybe even doesn't care about, and is just always clout chasing in general. Don't you think it's a bit odd that Joey's girlfriend took this long to be on the podcast while Sydney was on 5 months ago? Almost as if she waited for higher viewer retention because we all know she wasn't busy with her dying channel and god awful tweets.
@@An1mystics I have followed all of them on RUclips and twitter (and twitch for the ones that use it) for a long time, considering I can only consume them as they are on those platforms, i will go off how they present themselves on those platforms. I love Sydney, she's a great person, very driven, wish her the best. Aki is the opposite.
@@An1mystics Yeah it's not all of them, but I'm talking about the part of them we see, i already clarified that. Aki doesn't have a manager. You shouldn't blindly protect friends when people call them out, but Sydney probably doesn't think it's blindly because Aki manipulates the narrative.
@@An1mystics Why are you in the comments defending them? Regardless of what people say about Sydney, she is clearly a driven person who wants to make something of herself and I respect that a lot.
I think Aki has mentally proven to me that those chairs swivel because we literally never see the boys move too much on em' Such a small detail for me to notice but it's just - w h o a
I find it very enlightening on how Aki broke down the harmful effects of cancel culture. The fact we are always being monitored and be judged on that moment even years down the line is unethical. People change and they deserve their redemption. Yes, people need to be held accountable, but not by the mob that changes their minds every next trend but with actual authorities. Props to her for maintaining boundaries as a RUclipsr.
Hearing how Joe and Aki story on how they first interacted reminded me on how Garnt and Sydney's first interacted and isn't it funny how both couples got together by coincidence
The hand shake part hurts me personally When I meet someone and they whip their hand out for a shake, I'm just like "Oh no this guy has superior communication skills! Must maintain eye contact! Must say something cool and casual!!!!" and I start panicking
That translation thing when traveling with your friends who don‘t speak the language is so true. I took my friend to Vietnam 2 years ago and at some point you really start to get annoyed by translating the whole day.

When it comes to Filipino, Thai, or any other South-East Asian culture, food is life. And Hospitality is everything.
same for South Asian haha! Food, its aroma, and its thousand flavours - its a must ;)
Also, our "guest is god" culture
@@skyward7903 ah yes. The culture of Hospitality is strong in Asia.
not just asia, italian parents are like that as well.
i had a coworker who used to drive his truck down there all the time and whenever he stopped at a company around lunch time, they made him eat a giant bowl of pasta and gave him more food for the road, like "what you're in a hurry? well sad for you we won't unload your truck until you're done eating."
Food is literally how many of our cultures socialize. You think people meeting up for food is socializing in Western Countries? Oh, you have no idea.
True! If there ain't any hospitality, there's a strange feeling of guilt and regret that comes with it. Like you've fucked something up big time.

I really enjoyed Garnt's thoughts on cancel culture (people are people, even influencers; why is their ability to make mistakes slammed) and the morality of watching true crime (feeling sick bc this entertainment is lives being ruined and that someone was sick enough to do these things).
I actually think that Garnt and Aki have a lot of synergy. Their conversation at the end was really interesting.
a thought that came up for me while listening to it was like, we've been watching this been put on celebrities for years and engaged in it (some more than others ofc). But we're only addressing it now? its interesting how we suddenly become aware because there's a bigger connection between fans and creator now
yeah I completely agree, he really gave great insights and opinions through out, especially towards the end where they were discussing cancel culture where he more or less quote ob quote said: "the barrier between reality and fiction has kind of been slowly broken down..to the vast majority of public this is just entertainment, this is listening to high school drama and gossip, like what it's slowly turned into is, our entertainment has just become other people's reality"
@@alodiah2422 If you're interested in how mass media blurs that line between reality and fiction and it's ramifications writ large you should check out postmodernist like Debord's 'Society of the Spectacle' from the french '68 protest movements as well as Jean Baudrillads' writing, still incredibly prescient and relevant.
at least now we know that Aki is most likely to survive in Attack on Titan

Why u stop uploading bruh

"I Joined The Military To Impress A Boy" sounds like a light novel.
Now that i think about it, it totally does
"I Killed My Military Sergeant To Kiss A Bottom Boy"
"My Crush Dropped Me In a Third World Country and Left Me There To Date Someone Else"
"I Live Under The JROTC Classrooms Boards To Secretly Shine My True Love's Shoes Until Gradution"

Today I learned that Aki isn’t Aki’s real name...I don’t know how to feel about that...
Well technically she said not even family calls her Agnes and Aki sounds similar enough it might as well be her name
The way Aki has all of Joey’s attention in this video!!! The love in his eyes shows 💕
We want a trash taste episode of just the girls; Aki, Sydsnap and Meilyne. Add Kaho as the guest.
Man that would have been a perfect april fool's joke
I would love this so damn much
Who is meilyne
@@rahuljena420 She's their talent manager. You can sometimes hear her in the background but they also had her as a guest once on EP #13
@@t1n007 oh
Aki is such a good speaker, she keeps the conversation going and it just feels natural
Ikr. I love listening to her.
As expected of a detective
@@NeuronActivation yes a very crucial trait for intel collecting
It’s also because they’re all close friends so no awkwardness :)
I agree but I also feel she got interrupted a lot. Maybe she even doesn't feel like that. But I just hate it when that happens. And when she doesn't pick up on where she left off I'm also angry because I want to know how it goes on but I don't get to know because she got interrupted. (I love everyone of them, so this is not me saying: That evil person hurt Aki.)
When are we ever going to get a special episode with only the girls Aki, Sydney, Kaho and Meiling?
Best idea ever
Yeah, I was hoping for this as an april fools joke from trash taste
The trash taste squad were literally trashed out by then LOL.
Joey - The dense protagonist with a significant other or a harem
Garnt - The 'power of 'friendship' protagonist
Connor - The protagonist that became the overlord
As far as Americans being accepting about weird hobbies it really depends on where you are especially back in 2007. If you're in a small town area you like anime back in 2007 you would get bullied.
It's a half and half. I've liked anime since 1st grade and shared it readily. Most people were interested. Occasionally some idiot would try to pick a fight, but belittling their intelligence was a go to. It only came to a fist fight, like, twice.
@@brendenclapp7304 I mean that depends on where you live too XD
@@brendenclapp7304 is it? I don't even recall what exactly happened. I remember getting into fist fights over other stuff, so maybe I'm a little jaded.
I really got into anime back in high school with the anime club we had. I just remember that club meeting during my freshman year were always what I looked forward to, and that was late 2008 to 2009. After the people I knew graduated, someone else took over and it wasn't as fun, so I just hung out with other people I knew.
Pre 2007 and in a smaller town omg I got so fucking bullied during my life about my nerd hobbies. The times just starting catching up with it by the time they’re talking about.
Man I would feel bad for Connor because he's only single person among their friends but he has Jojo to keep him going.
And Kermit
He has the 93% and an army of vtubers simping on him.
He’s fine.
..and his ever growing vTuber harem =P
Connor has kaho lol secret relationship
@@THEKNOK simps =/= girlfriends, so no he is not fine
I can't believe Aki went through JROTC and a notoriously tough one. Now I'm just imagining her in a drill instructor's uniform yelling at cadets and it's kinda funny.
Lol
When Garnt said about Aki mom mode, I imagine her shouting drill instructor style at everyone that's fucking around when they shouldn't
We had an on campus rifle range in our JROTC bunker. I thought that was normal for all schools. Plinking .22s during lunch while a couple of teachers brought in 9mms and .45s was the norm. 'Merica, fuck yeah. The 90s was a magical time.
Hell, I'm Japanese, and I went though JROTC school my first high school year in America.
It's was one of those hardcore military school, school campus in middle of bumfucknowhere, dorm life, and JROTC training 24/7, completely cut off from the outside world.
This was 30 years ago though. Still kinda traumatized lol
Edit: Keep in mind, this was BEFORE the internet days. Internet wasn't a big thing until my early college years. So physical seclusion was essentially a complete isolation from rest of society.
@@aohige damn, you must have thought that American high schools were insane haha.
Or did you know what you were getting into?
Aki is right Filipino parents are absurd when giving your friends food they will literally shove you a ton of foods until your stomach can't hold it anymore. They will treat you like a family even if this is the first time they see you
Now, we only need Kiyochan to the podcast to complete the trinity.
Connor got Chris
lesgo kiyochan
Ichiban tomodachi, kiyochan

...sorry but who?
Whenever Garnt and Aki talk about South-east Asian culture I get very weirdly reminded about Mexican culture as well lol
As a Mexican, same
@@echo_in_eternity_9974 As another Mexican, I second this
As someone who is Southeast Asian descent (Filipino), can confirm. Especially with Filipinos, as we were colonized by the Spanish.
As someone from Chile I also get weirdly remained
Yeah dude, I'm indian and whenever I hear about Mexican culture I'm reminded of my own culture
Joey and Aki both “mmmm” when intently agreeing with someone 😂
😂.
Mudan's little comments are so fucking funny. Like when he just says "How would I figure this out????" to the rice noodle thing it had me dying.
14:51 Mudan you're a legend!... OOps sorry, nvm
The video is called "MARIO PARTY + ANIME = ZERO SKILLS!! 100% Orange Juice (Funny Moments)
@@sinistrality nice 😎
💀💀💀💀
Of course Joey and Aki met through reading a Doujin.
Soooo... can we still get a full female crew episode of trash taste with Aki, Syd and Meilyne?
Edit: I think that would still count as a Trash Taste. Now all 3 was already on the podcast, and they are not unknown for most of the watchers.
next trash taste special pleeease
yes 😭😭
And Shibuya Kaho
honestly that should have been their april fools, missed opportunity
@@semranger1 YES!!!!
when they talked about cancel culture connor mentioned how there’s not enough people who say “let’s just wait it out and hear from both sides first”
i was one of those people who preferred to wait it out but i stopped voicing that opinion now just because if you say that you want to hear the other side you will get attacked by the mob for not hating one side enough
cancel culture is so ridiculous
It is! I've never had a Twitter, and at this point I probably never will, because I will inevitably feel terrible about someone getting canceled, and that just doesn't sound good for my mental health
Hey son,
Good job on being the host when Aki is the guest
What is the sauce of your pfp? mate
@@rieriesungob Saimin Seishidou
... somethings not right here
+1 respect for garnt for recording that message for the teacher
I have to be completely honest. I know how close she is to all of these guys, but this was actually the most balanced and professional feeling interview of all of them I’ve seen. I could easily see her as a fourth chair on the show permanently.
I wish she would. Her personality helps balance out Garnt and Joey who get annoying at times.
@@Bowblaxian_Tricknology I don't see why they're annoying, other than probably being the ones to interrupt the most. Connor's the most chill, but only because his life was Great Value John Wick and a chess anime all in one.
Had the same feeling with Kaho idk

*Joey, Garnt & Aki talking about Thai food*
Garnt: I can’t remember the English name of it

Aki job quote “oh I only got paid for just doing all that and a career is wow got paid that much for just doing that” opened my eyes
Except the fact that a career does not mean good money. It simply means a stable line of work. You can make a career off of working as a bartender and be paid not much more than minimum wage.
@@SiMeGamer The way I understood it is it's more a perspective on things rather than an objective value. Kinda like "I only got paid this much for all this effort vs. I got paid so much for barely any effort"
Taking your bartender example it could be:
Person A:
"I have to keep the bar clean, keep track of customers, mix drinks properly and pay close attention to everything and only get paid barely over minimum wage. This sucks!"
Person B:
"I get to talk to many different people while I mix drinks and clean stuff? Wow, that's awesome!"
Two different perspectives on the same position. For one it's a job, for another it's a career.
@@Madnacc I still wouldn't call that a career because nothing says this is the path one will choose to pursue regardless of the perspective. But it is a nice way to look at that bartender example. I appreciate that perspective :]

How has no one commented on this yet?
Is this actually him?
really now
Underrated comment
I call sus
There are identical comments to this.
Garnt: "today, it feels like it's guilty until proven innocent"
And even then, there will still be people who will refuse to believe you're innocent
>guilty until proven innocent

My husband heard the part about Aki eating while a narrarator is listing what had been done to a victim. His response was "my life every freaking evening!"

Trash taste special?
As a Spotify listener here , also (sorta Normie) thank you for introducing the guest ! I’ve never watch any of your other channels so I appreciate y’all thinking about us “Normies”
Ayyy now that Aki has been on trash taste we can finally have a couples episode! Joey and Aki, Garnt and Sydney and Connor and his hand!!!

At least you Didn't say maylene,
+60 points for that, & +9 for the loner joke.

*Connor and Chris.

I can't believe this happened for real. I even remember reddit comments saying "we should respect their privacy and wait till Aki is ready." Man, what a blessing. Such a good convo
Joey's dad be like "Hey son, soo I've seen this Trash Taste episode that you've been doing and I don't like what you are saying about me."
In spain. It's also very common for people to just call each other fat as a compliment. It's a sign of affection calling somebody fat. The eating thing is also a thing is spain. Like my grandma right after saying you look fatter than last time she'll offer you jamón and say that its not real food and doesn't make you fat.
Esa no ha sido mi experiencia 😂
As a filipino watching this i really agree with aki with the sentence
If you're fat
"here food"
Mainit ang panahon? Tara kape.

As a German, hearing someone say all bread is the same makes me feel immense pain

Alright Trash Taste Special - Aki chews out the bois for 72 hours
Fun fact. Although Australia doesn't have much dialect change verbally in Australian sign language (ASL) there is a huge dialect difference. Some entire words change and some areas actual signify the end of a signed sentence by signing the letter a. This dialect difference is so big that the ASL signbank (online dictionary) asks what state you want your sign in.
I like how Aki keeps it so real. She is not afraid to say what she really thinks, unlike so many other creators that just go with the online mob mentality to stay brand safe.
Yeah man, this was a really pleasant episode to listen to, I liked it
Aki is the definition of mob mentality. She always tweets about what's relevant that she barely or maybe even doesn't care about, and is just always clout chasing in general. Don't you think it's a bit odd that Joey's girlfriend took this long to be on the podcast while Sydney was on 5 months ago? Almost as if she waited for higher viewer retention because we all know she wasn't busy with her dying channel and god awful tweets.
@@An1mystics I have followed all of them on RUclips and twitter (and twitch for the ones that use it) for a long time, considering I can only consume them as they are on those platforms, i will go off how they present themselves on those platforms. I love Sydney, she's a great person, very driven, wish her the best. Aki is the opposite.
@@An1mystics Yeah it's not all of them, but I'm talking about the part of them we see, i already clarified that. Aki doesn't have a manager. You shouldn't blindly protect friends when people call them out, but Sydney probably doesn't think it's blindly because Aki manipulates the narrative.
@@An1mystics Why are you in the comments defending them? Regardless of what people say about Sydney, she is clearly a driven person who wants to make something of herself and I respect that a lot.
"Gaming has ruined the word 'Clan'."
Yep, uh, definitely the first thing to do that
Clan with "C" lol i get what you're saying though
Ah yes the famous gamers group that ruin the word "Clan", Ku Klux Clan
Japanese clans that caused massive civil wars in Japan for hundreds of years didnt do the word any favors either.
@@derrilazkia1002 Ku Klux Klan ain't nothin' to fuck with
I think Aki has mentally proven to me that those chairs swivel because we literally never see the boys move too much on em'
Such a small detail for me to notice but it's just - w h o a
[Insert Neo whoa sound effect here]
Watching her twirling back and forth is so funny to me
Those boy has a bigger build
I find it very enlightening on how Aki broke down the harmful effects of cancel culture. The fact we are always being monitored and be judged on that moment even years down the line is unethical. People change and they deserve their redemption.
Yes, people need to be held accountable, but not by the mob that changes their minds every next trend but with actual authorities. Props to her for maintaining boundaries as a RUclipsr.
The episode the whole fandoms been waiting for!!!!
Yoo pfp twins!! (Almost lol)

So Aki is the OP character with mysterious background story
Every Filipino family reunion:
"Oh you're so fat right now oh my God.. do you have boyfriend?"
On point, Aki 🤣🤣🤣
Its so annoying too. This is what they asked me when I came back after being out of the Philippines for 2 years.
Something is off, this episode was wholesome af
Just a bunch of homies talking about life, friendship, relationships
Hearing how Joe and Aki story on how they first interacted reminded me on how Garnt and Sydney's first interacted and isn't it funny how both couples got together by coincidence
The hand shake part hurts me personally
When I meet someone and they whip their hand out for a shake, I'm just like "Oh no this guy has superior communication skills! Must maintain eye contact! Must say something cool and casual!!!!" and I start panicking
That translation thing when traveling with your friends who don‘t speak the language is so true. I took my friend to Vietnam 2 years ago and at some point you really start to get annoyed by translating the whole day.
