3:11 You I I

3:12 fun of them and make them feel small.

3:14 Just like kind of just happened now.

5:39 It feels like I'd be trapped on a ship and I'm

5:42 And the second I'd feel like I want to get off,

5:44 I I'd ensue into a panic attack cuz I can't get off.

5:46 you do your excursion.

5:48 What on the cruise?

5:50 Yeah, like the cruise ship docks and they call it an excursion

5:53 cuz you go out onto the land of wherever you're at.

5:58 Then you got to get back on the cruise.

5:59 Then you got to get back on the cruise.

6:00 You got to get back right back on the cruise.

6:02 I It's Okay, it's true that sometimes you

6:54 Mhm.

6:54 And that's my whole day.

6:56 Just eating breakfast.

6:57 want to do anything else.

7:00 Oh, how was the Takanaka concert?

7:02 Magical, invigorating, um made me want to learn jazz.

7:07 Made me want to play my saxophone again, actually.

7:09 It did make me want to learn jazz.

7:11 Yeah.

7:11 Yeah, Lilly was saying this and honestly you say I was agreeing with him.

7:15 But I don't think I do jazz guitar.

7:17 I think guitar's hard.

7:18 Yeah.

7:19 Do you know an instrument?

7:20 I did uh so many years of piano.

7:24 Okay.

7:24 I did probably seven years of piano.

7:28 running on the piano.

7:28 The girl at the concert The piano girl at the concert was amazing.

7:31 She was freaking out.

7:33 Do you You know Ri- Rio Fukui?

7:35 No.

7:37 But you're on.

7:37 Jazz pianist, Japanese.

7:39 Hope you're doing well, Lot.

7:47 But he's a he's a Japanese jazz pianist who rose

7:50 to similar prominence to the same like thing as Masayoshi,

7:54 like YouTube algo[ __] Mhm.

7:57 But sad thing is he died.

8:00 Oh, sad.

8:00 So he ain't around to to do an awesome world tour.

8:03 To to even see how much in the west is gripped on his music.

8:07 Damn.

8:08 But I heard the same with Miki Matsubara.

8:10 Matsubara, I'd give a billion dollars to go see Miki Matsubara concert.

8:13 What's interesting about him too is he's he like

8:18 picked it up when he was in his 20s.

8:20 Like I don't think he he dropped his first jazz album 20 Is it 28?

8:24 It was 24.

8:26 But he like picked it up in his 20s and so I'm 30 now.

8:29 We have time.

8:30 When I first found it, I was thinking to myself like, oh, I have time.

8:33 You're right.

8:34 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

8:34 It's like when you see the like a the UFC heavyweight like

8:37 started fighting at like 28 and you're like 28 and you're like,

8:40 okay, we could we could do this.

8:42 get there.

8:43 And then you proceed to not do it.

8:45 Yeah, he started piano at 22 and I found this out when I

8:47 was 24 and now I'm 30 and I haven't learned any more piano.

8:52 [laughter] Uh classic.

8:54 Such is life.

8:55 Such is life, I guess.

8:56 It's I guess the way it is.

8:59 Uh Uh anyway, today today we got to get to it

9:03 cuz you have to get your butt checked at the doctor.

9:07 Yeah, I do.

9:08 Uh so we don't have too much time.

9:10 I think this is our second third though.

9:11 We only have to do Yeah, just one or Cuz we did six.

9:15 We have to do what's the next?

9:16 We just have to do like what?

9:18 115 km a day and then we crush it.

9:21 Yeah, [laughter] I can.

9:21 Let's get a battalion.

9:23 Yeah, we get an early start and then we

9:25 we get one longer day in and then we're good.

9:28 Uh this next episode is um where we're picking up episode seven.

9:34 This is where we we got a wildly nasty sick from Gungan bread.

9:39 Can I be honest?

9:40 Okay, I'll be honest.

9:41 Uh I these episodes are going to be[ __] no?

9:45 Yes.

9:46 They're going to be like the worst episodes of the of the whole series.

9:49 Yeah, I I think we looked a bit at the um the series graph for this.

9:54 And I think in general the series graph is very recency biased.

9:57 It was all awesome.

9:59 Like the ratings are very high.

10:01 But yeah, like it has the Lee episode at a 9.9.

10:07 But [laughter] That's so sick.

10:08 But even even the series graph is like,

10:11 yeah, these are these are the weakest episodes.

10:14 Dude, you got sick and didn't want to do it.

10:16 We're about to hit some of the weakest episodes of the series.

10:19 But that's okay, cuz we'll share insightful thoughts and opinions on them.

10:24 Well, I thought also what could be fun to do is see

10:27 the insightful thoughts and opinions of somebody who wasn't on the trip,

10:31 god.

10:31 but who is a a reactor to the trip, Ena.

10:36 Cuz we haven't watched any Ena videos.

10:38 Ena's funny, bro.

10:39 I looked through her channel.

10:41 Like so they're all called like Chinese girl reacts, right?

10:43 Yeah.

10:43 Chinese has that insight.

10:44 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

10:44 Before this, she's a pharmacist.

10:47 It was pharmacist reacts.

10:50 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

10:51 Okay.

10:51 and I was like, when does that come up?

10:53 It's more than you'd think.

10:54 There's a couple of them.

10:56 I don't know like what Maybe it's like pharmacist reacts to house.

10:59 And it's like, yeah, I'd prescribe that.

11:01 I was like, nah, maybe not.

11:03 You um We would never prescribe that.

11:05 We would never prescribe that.

11:06 There's that one guy who goes to like um again,

11:09 gas stations and he like looks at the Dino

11:11 Rhino dick pill[ __] ad all number 97, yeah.

11:15 And tells you if it's really really good for you and yummy.

11:18 I would prescribe this.

11:19 Yeah.

11:20 I feel like it's always a no, right?

11:22 There's never a situation where Dino dick 3000's like, yeah, that's a cop.

11:26 You never know.

11:27 And that's why they do the reactions.

11:29 Um she was mostly complaining about you guys smoking.

11:34 Like about Take it up with Like the like oh,

11:38 what brand we were smoking probably.

11:40 Oh, she's like they're not doing good enough ones and we're

11:43 probably handing out like low-quality cigarettes to people and stuff.

11:46 should get higher quality to hand out and smoke more at on day.

11:49 That makes sense.

11:50 That makes sense.

11:51 Uh all right, let's watch.

11:52 to my channel.

11:53 My name is Ena and I am a Chinese kid.

11:55 Okay, it's Ena and I've been saying Ena for months.

11:58 Nathan, when I woke up this morning, I saw so many of you DM'd me or left

12:01 me a comment telling me what happened on day seven

12:06 [music]

12:05 and even Nick Yuling from Ludwig's team DM'd What?

12:10 Yingo?

12:11 me telling me I need to check this out.

12:14 Check this[ __] out.

12:15 What is What is Yingo?

12:16 Yingo after somebody's watched six episodes, you got to check out seven.

12:21 [laughter] You got to you won't believe what's next.

12:24 I know at this point is they got food poisoning.

12:26 So, let's watch day seven together and see if there's anything I can do.

12:30 He messaged her just to spoil it.

12:32 Yeah, that is a Yingo move, I think.

12:34 That Hampton Inn was so awesome.

12:36 Okay, let's go all day four.

12:39 This was Oh, yeah.

12:40 Actually, rainy day.

12:41 I don't remember this day.

12:43 Dude, every day is a rainy day early on.

12:45 Rainy day.

12:45 Can I say that?

12:46 Dude, the thing is kid day was rainy day.

12:48 I guess true, but this This is rainy day with no kids.

12:53 Oh dude, it's a way sadder day when you get a rainy day without kids involved.

12:57 Okay, see now I feel like you're making it weird.

12:59 I feel like Maybe we can get another kid day.

13:02 That's all I'm saying.

13:03 Kid We did.

13:04 We did.

13:05 [laughter] We unironically did.

13:06 Day number two.

13:06 If we play our cards right, we could access another kid day.

13:09 It was raining outside here.

13:10 more kids days than rainy days.

13:12 gutterly sick when I Exactly, but now I have kid day and rainy day.

13:15 So, we know we are officially a third of the way through.

13:19 By officially, I mean according to a Chinese

13:21 guy who was smoking a cig outside our hotel.

13:24 Yeah, but he seemed pretty, you know, He was like a stand-up guy.

13:27 He did.

13:27 Dude, that guy was a strange dude.

13:30 And I think they're doing this for 18 days total.

13:33 Is that correct?

13:33 18/ 3, that's 6.

13:35 They're only 1 day behind schedule.

13:37 That's actually They're doing really well.

13:39 We're not just like aiming for the entire[ __] border.

13:41 That would be a little too easy.

13:43 She cuts her vids.

13:44 Okay, should we react to the full vid, then go back,

13:46 and then watch her reaction to the cut up parts so we get the full context?

13:51 Could be the play.

13:52 Yeah.

13:53 Yeah.

13:53 [laughter] It might be.

13:54 And then we go through the full video again,

13:56 now with the insight of what she said, so that we fully understand it.

14:00 Play the[ __] video.

14:01 And there's also almost nothing in a lot of parts of the borders.

14:05 But there is a little town called Erenhot.

14:09 Erenhot is a town full of kissing dinosaurs.

14:11 One of the few border towns that has

14:13 anything going on between Mongolia and China.

14:16 To be honest, I've never heard of that city before this.

14:19 The most famous city in Inner Mongolia is called Hohhot.

14:23 Hohhot, I think.

14:25 I also ends with

14:26 No way that No way Yeah, I There's no way you pronounce it Hohhot.

14:30 Hohhot?

14:31 Did you Yeah, Hohhot.

14:32 H O H O T is Hohhot.

14:35 To be honest, I've never heard of that city before this.

14:38 The most famous city in Inner Mongolia is called Hohhot.

14:42 Like, how are you getting that many syllables out of Hohhot?

14:45 Hohhot.

14:46 Hohhot.

14:47 Hohhot.

14:48 Hohhot.

14:48 That's like five.

14:51 Hohhot.

14:51 Yeah, Hohhot was huge.

14:52 were there.

14:53 We were We went there to get the train from Hohhot to Beijing.

14:56 And that that place was[ __] huge.

14:59 Yeah, it was nice to be there.

15:00 Hohhot, I think.

15:01 I also ends with hot, but this is Erenhot.

15:04 So, that is where we must go to succeed on our journey of tip-to-tip China.

15:10 We spent a while searching for places on the border that were cool,

15:13 and there There's literally one, and I think they used to have dinosaurs there

15:16 cuz they have like 800 statues of dinosaurs making out.

15:19 Yeah, must have made some[ __] dinosaur discoveries.

15:22 I don't give a[ __] about that.

15:23 You didn't believe me when I said they

15:24 were making If you cross into Mongolia not

15:28 on that We're doing more than making Look how

15:30 And we know how to say it in Chinese.

16:03 Oh god.

16:04 We're soaked.

16:05 Do you think they had a Hauter in China?

16:09 I actually don't think I've progressed.

16:10 If they didn't have Bio Chi, then they don't have Hauter.

16:12 We're going to take a random right and

16:14 of my motorcycle was missing by the end of the trip, also.

16:16 I don't know where the[ __] it was.

18:32 He said the 207's right there.

18:34 Which is right there.

18:35 I don't know how right there.

18:37 The most amazing news I could have received today.

18:40 He He might have lost his Visconti.

18:43 He might have lost his Visconti.

18:44 His pen, his Visconti, man.

18:46 Give me Visconti.

18:49 [laughter] So, we got some bad news.

18:50 That was on the way to Visconti.

18:52 I was so sad about losing me Visconti.

18:54 And it was this at the end of this the 207, too.

18:57 It was the end.

18:59 Love the glasses.

19:00 I lost me Visconti.

19:02 Me Visconti.

19:03 Question, why did he bring a $400 pen on a motorcycle trip [laughter] in China?

19:09 Answer, it's $500.

19:12 The question and no, it's not a Montblanc.

19:14 It's like you could easily lose it or, you know, drop it and break it.

19:18 That's an expensive pen to to lose.

19:21 And then the 207 possibly betrayed us cuz the road[ __] ended.

19:28 This can't be the end of the Oh, no.

19:30 This can't be.

19:31 I was thinking about what happens when you die.

19:34 It's like it scares me.

19:36 That's the saddest day of our[ __] lives.

19:38 It's It's like thinking about what happens after life.

19:41 Life gets so much worse.

19:42 Like when your spouse dies.

19:43 Yeah.

19:44 Yeah.

19:45 Yeah.

19:46 And as you can see, still raining.

19:49 Still dumping.

19:50 So, anyway, we're just going to go back and what, hang that left?

19:54 Yeah, I think we do a left.

19:55 I think I have a second strap we could try.

19:57 What is it?

19:58 What if we go back to the hotel?

19:59 Okay, get our bearings again.

20:01 Get our bearings, check see if my pen's there.

20:03 And then maybe see if there's another north direction from there.

20:07 Like a different thing that's not Oh,

20:09 like we go back to the hotel, 100 miles away.

20:14 The hotel has my pen.

20:15 I called the hotel.

20:17 The hotel has my Visconti.

20:18 I know this place.

20:21 I know I know this place.

20:25 Bring back bad memories.

20:26 This is like when you return to your house after it burns down.

20:30 [laughter] And the lot brings back so many memories.

20:31 So many memories and your flip ship it to them.

20:37 Where's my Visconti and your flip-flops?

20:42 That's more important than your Visconti.

20:45 First off First off, you watch your[ __] tongue.

20:47 You watch your[ __] tongue.

20:49 You watch your[ __] tongue.

20:51 Volcanic rock, you have to find a rock.

20:57 You have to get the one ring.

20:58 You have to travel 5,000 miles.

21:00 You can't take the birds because Sauron's army will kill you from the skies.

21:04 And you drop the one ring, but the one ring distracts you're human.

21:07 Well, Well, we're getting it shipped to Aaronhaut.

21:11 We have to go to Aaronhaut now no matter what because if we don't,

21:14 we don't get our flip-flops or the pen.

21:15 There's You were genuinely sad about the flip-flops.

21:17 Yeah.

21:18 Those are my favorite flip uh slippers.

21:20 How long have you had them?

21:22 Yeah, so the local kind flip-flops they they start as like a homunculus slab

21:28 of rubber that is super uncomfortable but slowly over time you get to know them.

21:32 They start to like give in a little bit to your feet shape and then it

21:35 perfectly call your feet with exact right amount

21:38 of blowback springback support from the hard rubber.

21:41 And then I don't know.

21:42 I've had them for like a year or 2 years.

21:45 If you lose them then you have to start the whole process.

21:47 It's like seasoning a cast iron pan.

21:49 It's like working socks.

21:51 Whatever.

21:52 Whatever that is.

21:53 Sure.

21:54 It's like seasoning cast iron.

21:55 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

21:56 Yeah.

21:57 Get it to[ __] Aaronhaut.

21:58 They're sending it to the Aaronhaut[ __] post office.

22:01 They even[ __] up John Paul.

22:02 I actually genuinely love those flip-flops.

22:05 We need to go to Aaronhaut then.

22:06 And also your pen.

22:08 Okay, if you lost something or if you

22:11 forgot something in the hotel in your own city,

22:13 there's a really easy and quick and inexpensive way.

22:17 It's called Pal Toi, which is just delivery,

22:20 but it's not just limited to delivering food or buying groceries for you.

22:25 They can literally go to anywhere to pick

22:27 up anything and drop it off anywhere for you.

22:30 Do you do your Pal Toi drug deals?

22:33 Pal Toi just has to follow us all the way to Aaronhaut.

22:36 Just pick up this package and bring it to Aaronhaut.

22:37 Don't say anything.

22:38 When I was in China, I used it twice.

22:39 The first time was someone took my luggage at the airport

22:42 and then I had to call the police and went to the police

22:45 station and they helped me identify the guy through CCTV

22:48 and it was the most insane room I've seen in my life.

22:51 Like an entire wall covered in CCTV like the majority reports.

22:55 You just lie about your luggage getting lost.

22:58 Yeah, I think it was that guy.

22:59 Let's just Let's just kill him.

23:01 I don't need the luggage to kill him.

23:03 We'll kill him.

23:04 Uh and they identified the guy and they

23:06 called the guy and they got the guy apologized

23:09 to me and said he will send my luggage

23:11 to my hotel and I got it within 30 minutes.

23:14 And the second time I used it was when I was meeting up with some friends,

23:17 but I forgot her gift in my hotel room.

23:20 So then when I came back to the hotel room,

23:22 I called a delivery service to come pick up the gift and then I sent

23:26 it to her address and again that only took like half an hour to an hour.

23:31 I would say if they had realized that they lost their passport

23:35 when they were still in the same city at least in the same,

23:38 you know, province, like within a half an hour to 1 hour vicinity,

23:42 they can definitely use that service and it's ridiculously inexpensive.

23:47 I think I spent uh 30 to 50 RMB for each delivery service,

23:52 but if they are already quite far away,

23:54 I'm pretty sure you can call the hotel and ask them to ship your item,

23:58 you know, anywhere to your next address.

24:00 That's what we did.

24:02 Aaron hotter, I'll kill myself.

24:03 My wife won't let me back in the house if I don't bring home my flip flops.

24:06 Okay.

24:07 What are you?

24:08 Welcome to Gonggan.

24:11 Gonggan.

24:12 Gonggan.

24:13 We are here and uh A little bit cold.

24:17 I got to say I'm a little chilly.

24:19 It's second to only Hokkaido.

24:22 Yeah.

24:22 Like it's worse than Aomori.

24:24 It's worse than Furano station in Japan.

24:26 uncomfortable.

24:26 I'm tingling right now.

24:26 Like my hands are just we're so we are soaked.

24:30 for the bone.

24:33 I'm making puddles everywhere I go.

24:35 They gave us stickers.

24:36 I love you.

24:36 Put them on your bike.

24:37 Yay.

24:38 That's so cute.

24:39 This is another Luckin Coffee.

24:41 You know, I've never tried Luckin Coffee before this, but I'm going to try it.

24:45 Yeah, I'm going to put them on the helmet.

24:47 I'm going to start with a blank Luckin helmet.

24:48 Okay, okay, okay.

24:49 Pick pick pick the best one.

24:50 Point to it on three.

24:51 That's so cute.

24:52 They gave us stickers.

24:53 Okay.

24:54 Okay.

24:54 We're chilling.

24:55 Chad, which one do you pick?

24:56 By the way, not stickers.

24:58 Yeah.

25:00 [laughter] They're temporary tattoos.

25:00 Temporary tattoos.

25:02 All the logos are backwards.

25:04 They are perfect.

25:07 [laughter] The lobster sticker reminds me of that meme.

25:11 When Michael was[ __] you, man.

25:14 I actually don't want to watch this video anymore.

25:16 I think we should watch our hands.

25:16 [laughter] What?

25:25 How much does it cost to send it in?

25:26 No one would know.

25:27 Where's Michael?

25:27 $0 if it was an accident.

25:29 180 if it was on purpose, like if it was an actual save.

25:33 But like, how do how do they know?

25:35 Uh they got I got the I guess they

25:36 look through the telemetry data on like it logs

25:39 it all on the little chip or something

25:40 and then they look through it and they just decide.

25:43 And this one for sure will be a accidental discharge.

25:46 got video.

25:47 I accidentally discharged.

25:49 Yeah, and then I got video.

25:50 Oh yeah, I do got video.

25:51 Was the last one considered an accident?

25:53 The The one where I fell, the only one where I ever had to pay was I fell.

25:57 Yeah, yeah, but And I was like they were like The Dodgers one was still?

25:59 The Dodgers one, yeah, they did it for for free.

26:01 That makes sense.

26:02 Actually lost it.

26:04 I hope he's all right.

26:05 Get some food while he's going to I never I never I never saw this.

26:13 [laughter]

26:12 I never saw this.

26:13 Cuz I was by myself here.

26:15 I never saw this.

26:17 This is a bakery, is it?

26:18 Is it a bakery?

26:19 It's a gong and bakery, is it?

26:31 Okay, so that's the Napoleon cake.

26:33 That looks pretty good.

26:33 10 for 3, pretty good deal.

26:35 Yeah, not bad.

26:36 A chocolate, so inexpensive.

26:38 It's 10 RMB for 3.

26:41 80 cents for a cake.

26:44 I don't know what the[ __] I just said.

26:54 Sugar eat.

26:55 This is beautiful.

26:57 Yeah.

26:58 This too?

26:59 things.

26:59 This too?

27:00 Yeah, yeah.

27:01 So, one of these taste bad, one of these taste good?

27:03 Yeah, and then also one of these breads is too.

27:06 Uh this one I've had before.

27:08 This one has to be good.

27:10 I think that one is the bad one.

27:11 one's bad?

27:12 I think that's the poison one.

27:13 Really?

27:14 I thought the other one was a poison one.

27:15 The one that tasted kind of weird.

27:18 You remember this?

27:18 Yeah, I remember this very vividly.

27:20 So, we had three breads.

27:21 You can see them all on the screen right now.

27:24 This one right here.

27:26 chugging poison.

27:27 I don't think can be it.

27:28 I think this one's the good one.

27:29 Because it has the least cuz like these ones

27:33 I'm blocking kind of this one has filling.

27:36 I feel like what if the filling's bad?

27:38 That's what I thought was bad.

27:39 That's what I mean.

27:40 So, like this one has no filling.

27:41 So, I feel like this one Uh yeah.

27:43 The first one you took a bite of it.

27:45 Merv, no.

27:47 It's a take or leave it for me.

27:49 And this one's good?

27:51 You want me to check?

27:53 You got it, Cap.

27:56 Ooh, it was like really dry.

28:00 It was like crazy.

28:02 I was like about to bolt it down.

28:03 That's the good one, right?

28:13 Meal review 99.

28:19 [laughter] It was pretty good.

28:20 Hey, outside of the food poisoning it tasted awesome.

28:26 We should make a call.

28:27 We have to keep going.

28:28 We're maybe an hour drive from hashtag winning.

28:33 Yeah.

28:34 We could stop there.

28:35 That'd be 200 km on the day.

28:37 Should we do what we always do and say that we'll see

28:39 how we feel and then just eventually always get the earliest possible hotel?

28:46 Yeah.

28:47 Yeah.

28:52 Yeah, sorry.

28:52 Durian pastry.

28:53 Back to the road.

28:55 Lane?

28:55 Yes.

28:55 I think you just I think you're like it's a durian pastry.

28:58 I don't I don't know if they made it.

29:00 spoiled.

29:00 It's almost tastes like durian in a way.

29:03 It smells off.

29:05 Oh, look at us.

29:05 We're pregnant with throw up right now.

29:09 Hey guys, let's put it on a blue sign this time.

29:11 That would be funny.

29:12 Yeah, that's funny.

29:13 That's it.

29:14 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

29:15 They were on the road to 7 until they ran into the true challenge.

29:21 I can feel the foreshadowing coming.

29:23 Cuz it's so diluted from afar, they won't know if it's the right road.

29:26 Big city.

29:26 Bad news.

29:28 I lost Michael.

29:30 I told him to go ahead to see if there's a way

29:32 to get on the bridge cuz very clearly that bridge goes to Jingzhou,

29:38 which definitely will have a hotel.

29:40 Right now my game plan is just to arrive for a little bit,

29:45 see if I can catch up to him.

29:53 This is the guy who what?

29:54 This is the guy who said Sunny D.

29:56 I pointed.

29:56 I needed to know.

29:59 What did you say?

30:01 Ignore.

30:07 To church.

30:09 To church.

30:10 To church.

30:10 Whatever.

30:11 [laughter] How do I eat that city?

30:20 Mogged.

30:20 How do I get there?

30:22 Mogged.

30:25 I fixed it on the second.

30:27 Sun One more time.

30:29 Sun Sunny D.

30:31 He just kept saying it.

30:34 Sun Lee.

30:35 Like Gong Li.

30:37 But I don't know what D is.

30:38 Lee?

30:39 Sun three Lee.

30:40 Gong Li.

30:41 But what's D?

30:42 Sun Li D.

30:44 Why does he call me D?

30:45 Sunny D.

30:52 Okay.

30:53 Xie xie.

30:54 Okay.

30:55 3 km, they'll get there, turn left.

30:58 That's the instruction.

31:00 But how what the[ __] was the D?

31:02 Slow down.

31:03 D is more.

31:06 3 km more?

31:09 Sunny but it's It's[ __] up cuz he said Lee instead of Gongli.

31:12 Right.

31:13 It was very colloquial.

31:14 Yeah.

31:16 I still don't know what he said.

31:17 Yeah, me neither.

31:18 If my eyes don't deceive me, it's about 100 goats who have suddenly crossed.

31:24 Ooh, okay.

31:26 This is really interesting and a bit of history for you guys.

31:31 Okay, where they are on the map right

31:32 now because they're trying to get to Dingzhou, right?

31:35 And you'll see to get to Dingzhou,

31:37 you have to cross Changjiang, which is the Yangtze River.

31:42 Yeah.

31:47 We need to majorly protect the Changjiang, which is the Yangtze River.

31:51 We need to manage and prevent any flooding.

31:55 We need to limit environmental damage and pollution.

31:57 We need to limit environmental damage and pollution.

32:00 We need to protect the natural habitats and we need

32:02 to protect the natural habitats and we need to be civilized.

32:06 Why are these signs here?

32:08 You know about the tsunami stones?

32:10 In Japan?

32:12 Yeah.

32:13 Like those are like where the tsunami went to last time?

32:15 Is that the meaning?

32:16 Yeah, it's like the year 600 they put up stones and they're like don't

32:19 build past here because it's like where a tsunami came and where it flooded to.

32:24 And then Japan was like what if we did though cuz the port's down here?

32:28 It's like way easier to get[ __] to the port.

32:31 like where life happens.

32:32 Yeah.

32:32 Yeah.

32:33 Yeah, but some didn't but yeah, mostly.

32:35 Yeah.

32:35 What about we just have cast those stones

32:37 in epoxy resin slab as like piece of history?

32:39 I think this was like a Maybe like where the Yangzi.

32:42 Also, I didn't just now found out that Yangzi is a different word in Chinese.

32:47 That's weird.

32:48 Oh, is it?

32:49 She just said the something, which is the Yangzi, and I learned the word Yangzi.

32:54 You could have just taught me the original word.

32:56 call it the Yellow River?

33:00 Wait, isn't the Yellow River a different river?

33:02 Yeah, yeah, yeah, but like they don't call

33:03 the Yangzi or the Yellow River, I assume.

33:07 Plus, remember in a previous episode I

33:09 said in 1998 something major happened for China.

33:14 What was it?

33:14 Do you guys remember?

33:15 I'll put up a quiz here somewhere.

33:18 Uh, but I said in 1998 China joined World Trade Organization.

33:22 And after that, the Chinese economy had a really major boom.

33:26 The other extremely extremely important thing that happened in 1998 Flooded.

33:31 was It flooded.

33:32 an insane flood across the entire country.

33:36 And the most major flood that this happened

33:38 to were the cities around Changjiang.

33:40 Millions and millions of homes were damaged,

33:43 and millions of people were homeless,

33:45 and thousands and thousands of people actually lost their lives.

33:48 Thousands.

33:49 And how did the flood happen?

33:51 I think it's a combination of heavy heavy rainfall,

33:55 and do you guys remember I also said that, you know, 10, 15,

33:59 20 years before 1998 China was really heavy into cutting down trees,

34:05 into steel making, and they just

34:07 didn't pay attention on preserving the environment.

34:10 So, the heavy rainfall led to mudslides, landslides,

34:14 and there was just no stopping the river from flooding the cities.

34:17 And I was only a kid back then,

34:19 but some of the images they showed on the news were burnt into my memory.

34:24 It's become one of my core memories now.

34:26 We saw soldiers that got deployed to aid these major cities,

34:29 and I remember seeing on the news they

34:31 carried bags and bags of sand and they tried to pile them onto the dike to try

34:37 to prevent the flood from coming into the city.

34:40 Um it was raining every day heavily on the news.

34:43 It was brutal.

34:44 After that year, after the disaster happened,

34:47 China took planting trees and restoring

34:50 the environment really, really seriously.

34:53 So ever since 1998, you can see a huge improvement in planting new trees,

34:59 in making China more green,

35:00 and just raising awareness and decreasing

35:02 pollution and preserving the environment.

35:05 So yeah, it's great to see these signs still around near the Changjiang area.

35:10 So Yeah, I do think every city has like this.

35:14 Or at least a lot of the ones we went to.

35:16 Yeah, I was wondering why they were doing so.

35:17 I thought it was for agriculture or something.

35:19 There's like a huge swath of farmland right outside the city,

35:22 which is probably like multi-functional.

35:23 It's probably not just for flooding,

35:24 but There's like plenty of trees to prevent landslide or anything.

35:28 That's a really good reminder for people to continue preserving the environment.

35:33 Yeah, at least they change it.

35:34 Texas freezes every year and then we leave it the same.

35:37 Never change it, bro.

35:38 We should change something in the farm area.

35:43 And look who it is.

35:45 Did you go all the way down that way?

35:47 Michael.

35:47 Not all the way down.

35:48 There's a turnoff, but I talked to like

35:50 an elderly couple and they said I was like,

35:54 "How do I get to that trunk sure?" And I think they said something like,

35:56 "You can't take this Gaosu here." And they pointed to the bridge.

36:00 But then they said back the way we just came.

36:03 They were like, "Sān lì dì." Which I was like,

36:06 "Sān lì dì?" And I still don't Sān lì dì.

36:10 fully understand.

36:11 What does that word mean?

36:12 Yeah, that's pretty much I think that's what they said.

36:16 I mean, I buy that.

36:17 Yeah, that is pretty much.

36:20 What the[ __] is this?

36:23 There's no way everyone who lives in the city on motorcycle

36:26 has to Is that you in front with or is that Hey,

36:29 they're going to arrive at a port.

36:31 Is that you in front with the blinker on or is it me?

36:33 Oh, yeah, maybe it's me with the big cases.

36:35 For that, you have to answer our riddles three.

36:39 Sunning D, that's what that means.

36:41 Okay.

36:43 This is the actual river.

36:45 And my heated gloves are out of power.

36:47 So, Michael, um what's the game plan?

36:50 Cuz I'm pretty sure that's the city right there, no?

36:54 That was cool to see.

36:55 That would be the same city.

36:56 cool view.

36:57 That's a bridge there.

36:58 It looks like right behind you there's this huge bridge we could cross.

37:02 Oh, you talking about the gates to Agartha?

37:04 Yeah, the gates to Agartha.

37:05 Yeah, the thing is only cars go on the gates to Agartha.

37:08 No motorcycles.

37:09 No?

37:10 Okay, is there a bridge on the right then?

37:11 No, there's no bridge on the right or left.

37:14 There's kind of only [music] one way to get in and out

37:16 of this whole god damn city and it's just that bridge.

37:19 But okay, so what do you do if you have [music] like, I don't know

37:22 If you're on a motorcycle,

37:23 you could Sons of Anarchy yourself into a bigger truck.

37:26 And then ride that into the city.

37:28 Yeah.

37:30 Like a like a Shai Hulud the great sandworm.

37:33 behind a herd of a hundred goats.

37:34 Dude, the goats are kind of awesome.

37:36 look like that.

37:37 I bet that side doesn't have goats.

37:39 That's true.

37:39 And from where I'm standing, I see 101 goats.

37:48 Okay, yeah, let's go on the bikes.

37:49 Let's go on the bikes.

37:53 Oh my god.

37:55 They're just driving around.

37:57 Wait, there is no like no other bridge, right?

38:00 No, I think you literally you have to take the ferry crossing.

38:03 Like we found the one way into Jingzhou.

38:05 I mean, I guess you could probably rip it far

38:07 enough and then there's probably a bridge outside the city.

38:10 8 km the other way, yeah.

38:12 Yeah, this one is the expressway that I guess they can't cross.

38:16 Yeah, how would you cross that?

38:18 How would you cross?

38:19 Yeah, I I it's a ferry.

38:20 I think we're actually doing a tip-to-tip special to the ferry skin.

38:25 Call it a ferry?

38:28 Five.

38:29 Okay, no, no, no.

38:30 Five yuan?

38:31 It's actually a ferry.

38:32 A dollar?

38:33 That's a dollar.

38:33 Oh, yeah.

38:34 So, you're supposed to buy a ticket onto the ferry.

38:38 And we didn't do that.

38:40 We didn't even know that this what you had to do.

38:41 Who would have known you're supposed to buy a ticket?

38:43 Yeah, but as we got in line, we see everyone handing not cash, but a ticket.

38:46 And so then I'm like he's like you need a ticket.

38:48 And I'm like how much is a ticket?

38:49 He said five yuan.

38:50 And I'm like and I and I I have 10 yuan on me cash.

38:54 So, I'm like giving it to him and he's like no, you got to buy a ticket.

38:56 And I'm like and he's like okay.

38:58 And I think he just pocketed it.

38:59 Like I think he just put the 10 yuan in his pocket and then let us on.

39:03 the dank ferry.

39:04 And which I'm cool with.

39:06 Yeah, I'd rather him have it than the ferry company.

39:08 You know what?

39:08 Have it, bro.

39:09 The ferry company don't need a little more.

39:13 It's actually a ferry skin.

39:16 Aw, okay, that's sweet.

39:17 There's another message to remind us Shou hu Changjiang,

39:21 we need to protect Changjiang.

39:22 Shou hu Changjiang, we need to take

39:25 care of Changjiang and also protect Changjiang.

39:30 All those three things are basically telling us that we

39:33 need to protect Changjiang and I'm sure this is all,

39:36 you know, motivational messages for what happened after

39:39 Changjiang is Yeah.

39:41 Okay.

39:41 That's so insane.

39:42 The Yangtze also sounds like a Chinese word.

39:44 It does, right?

39:45 Yeah.

39:46 Like if they're calling Changjiang,

39:47 why did cuz that Like I get that Yellow River's not what they say.

39:50 But Yangtze sounds It sounds Who makes that?

39:54 Sounds a little bit Chinese.

39:56 It does.

39:56 It just just like it's also like Aaron Hot.

39:58 Can I not say it sounds a bit Chinese?

40:00 It's just[ __] not allowed.

40:02 But but that's the that's the the English version?

40:05 Okay.

40:05 There is none.

40:07 It's a Oh my god.

40:08 no That's amazing.

40:12 That's amazing.

40:13 These guys are pregnant.

40:14 Pregnant with you on me?

40:16 You're right.

40:19 That'll be harder to deliver than an actual child.

40:21 I mean these guys are staying on.

40:23 Uh we're on the boat.

40:25 Yeah, we'll see how long this takes.

40:26 It is funny everyone on the moped is just staying on.

40:29 It must be just be like pretty fast.

40:32 You can see I put on the tattoo from from the Lucky N Coffee.

40:36 It sucked, bro.

40:37 It made my skin so gripy when I put

40:38 gloves on so it hurt it ripped it every time.

40:43 Dude, we got here like good time.

40:46 The genuinely perfect time.

40:47 Ferry skip operation break in to Jinjo success.

40:51 Now it's operation find Judian.

40:53 It's just instant, bro.

40:55 They got this[ __] down.

40:56 Oh, this uphill is going to suck.

40:58 The ferry was really cool because the boat it's like a barge

41:02 and then a boat attached to it that's kind of like towing it.

41:04 Yeah, it was like a towing a trailer.

41:07 It and it has like a pivot.

41:09 So like it can like change its position.

41:11 Okay.

41:12 Yeah, so it's like always the boat that's pushing is always moving forward.

41:16 Yeah.

41:17 It's kind of hard to describe.

41:17 Yeah, it was really cool to see though.

41:20 Not that bad.

41:20 Not that bad.

41:22 All right.

41:24 It's kind of coming down now a bit.

41:26 All right, we did it, man.

41:28 It's still raining.

41:29 Okay, when did you start feeling not so good?

41:33 At this point I feel money.

41:35 I knew I knew Michael felt bad.

41:36 So we got to the city and it's like a big ass city and we

41:40 drove around for a long time cuz we wanted to find like a pretty nice hotel.

41:45 Yeah.

41:46 Yeah.

41:46 Yeah.

41:46 Yeah.

41:46 We were only finding kind of like smaller shittier hotels.

41:49 Like super small.

41:50 Like basically a facade like they'd have a front that was

41:53 like a hotel and it'd be like in a nice

41:54 sign and then you look behind and it looks like

41:56 the most decrepit building you've ever seen in your life.

41:58 So we're like, "Ah, let's try to find some nice shit." Like

42:00 Cuz we've been riding all day in the rain,

42:02 you know, we want to find something decent.

42:03 to find something nice with warm bath

42:05 water and big towels and and western toilets.

42:08 And that was the goal at least.

42:10 And uh and we drove around for probably an hour.

42:13 Yeah, we did a lot of loops looking for a good hotel.

42:15 And dude, over the course of that hour I started going downhill fast.

42:19 tell you were fading, and I wasn't sure if it was cuz of the cold or what,

42:22 but at this point I felt fine.

42:23 I'm like 100%.

42:24 I I was thinking I was thinking I was like,

42:26 "Dude, I must just be really freaking hungry."

42:28 Yeah.

42:28 Cuz cuz on this day we did skip lunch.

42:31 So I was like we have I must just be cold and hungry.

42:34 Yeah, cuz it was probably like 3:30 4:00 p.m.

42:36 at this point.

42:37 And so we'd be riding for 6 hours, and we only stopped for bread once.

42:41 Yeah.

42:41 So and it was all rain.

42:43 It was very cold that day.

42:59 Oh, this is a I think this was a Was this a No, this wasn't the cop.

43:04 It's just some dude.

43:06 Wait wait wait wait wait wait wait.

43:15 We didn't go to that one.

43:17 Yeah, we did not go to that one cuz I drove by that one

43:19 and it looked mid as[ __] I did not hear him say five star though.

43:22 Yeah, I must have missed that.

43:23 Yeah, I missed that in the translation.

43:26 No, cuz this one looks pretty nice.

43:29 I was giving out, and this made it 10 times worse.

43:32 I don't know how horribly we communicated

43:35 with this poor lady, but it wasn't good.

43:38 This was I think one of our top two worst hotel check-ins of my life.

43:44 It requires a certain level of confidence and happiness

43:47 to be able to speak a foreign language.

43:49 Yeah.

43:50 And yeah, I [snorts] was fading in in me pretty fast.

43:53 I thought this would be my last thing, my last like challenge.

43:57 Right.

43:57 And we would just coast over it and then go to dinner.

43:59 A small bump in the road, and it turns out to be Barry Nash.

44:04 [laughter] I don't know what happened.

44:06 Yep.

44:08 Yes.

44:11 That's what he said.

44:12 So, translated to fallen award.

44:14 Deal fall down is a word but deal [laughter] is a standard From the bushes,

44:27 from the fog [laughter] of war he shoot shot.

44:34 [laughter] From the top of the Texas Book Depository he

44:37 fires Sean Ryan Fang from a Carcano rifle 762.

44:41 [laughter] Sean Ryan Fang is good.

45:01 That's the best way I've had perhaps the whole [laughter]

45:09 At this point I think we're on cloud nine.

45:11 Shoot, I'm I'm putting up a front.

45:13 But like we nailed it so far.

45:15 You're Yeah, yeah, it was it's pretty par for the course for like our check-ins.

45:19 You would think this is going to go really well.

45:35 [laughter] __] oh, it's a question we've never heard before.

45:39 Sherman Zen Sherman Zen [laughter]

45:52 From the from the fog [laughter] of war and misses by a mile.

46:03 [snorts] I'm I'm thinking you can pay for a better I feel

46:06 like she could just like show them a picture of a identification.

46:11 And "shen fen zheng" is the Chinese people's identification cards.

46:15 Obviously, these two people don't look like they have identification cards.

46:19 I wonder if she asked who got

46:20 not?

46:21 Yeah.

46:21 That's the word for password.

46:23 I [laughter] wonder if they know the word for password.

46:25 So, maybe if she asked password, then they'll know what to

46:27 We would all we would have had who just don't know.

46:30 Fei chang hao.

46:34 [laughter] Paid for a better room, huh?

46:35 I did have this whole theory that it was she

46:39 looking at me like I'm the biggest dumbass who ever exist.

46:41 I had a theory that she was asking about what level of room.

46:45 And so, I was like, "Fei chang hao." I thought that would hit.

46:48 [laughter] And then you filmed the whole thing.

46:53 She's trying to stop from laughing.

46:55 Also, this hotel is definitely not one of those five-star hotels that the dude

47:00 on the road uh told them to go to because usually five-star hotels,

47:03 the people at the front desk definitely will need to have some English skills.

47:10 [laughter]

47:09 This is probably like a three-star maximum.

47:16 Maybe What?

47:20 Do some sign language, body language, you know?

47:24 I'm with you, you know?

47:25 It's her fault.

47:28 [laughter] Yeah.

47:28 I like that.

47:29 We did not get it right.

47:30 It's probably her fault.

47:32 Card, card, password.

47:33 Also, it's funny that she said a slang.

47:35 She said "Hai zi ye bu zhi dao zen me gen ni jie

47:38 shuo le." This poor kid doesn't know how to explain to you guys anymore.

47:42 Sometimes uh they make a self-deprecating joke to refer to oneself as "hai zi",

47:47 like this poor kid, like me.

47:50 Wo de wo de zhong wen bu hao.

47:55 [laughter] __] my ass.

47:55 Hu zhao ben.

47:56 Hu zhao.

47:58 Hu zhao ba, dui ba?

47:59 Hu zhao.

48:02 Passport.

48:02 Passport.

48:04 Oh, then you had it.

48:05 I had it out for it.

48:06 It was right there.

48:06 It was right there.

48:08 Cuz I was like I know the passport's coming.

48:10 Yeah, right.

48:11 I just thought we were there.

48:12 doesn't know maybe she didn't know what American passport look like.

48:14 Maybe it wasn't Maybe she's never heard of the word passport before.

48:18 Maybe it's her fault.

48:20 She should have done charades.

48:22 Second progress.

48:23 Here we go.

48:24 Oh my god.

48:25 I was like woman should be on the bicycle

48:27 while going in Have you ever seen me cry?

48:41 That one hurts.

48:41 in real life?

48:43 I don't think you have.

48:44 My stomach hurts so bad.

48:46 And that is what I get back.

48:48 I mean that's like a one HP old.

48:51 [laughter] It was the last.

48:52 You have[ __] nothing in your tank.

48:54 It was the last.

48:55 So my effort a panic flash.

49:04 Sure 15 floor.

49:06 15 floor and then Wi-Fi.

49:14 [laughter] Ludwig said you have to go to cheat.

49:20 Do you want air?

49:22 [snorts] I ate only bread.

49:30 That was stupid of me.

49:36 Yeah.

49:37 Yeah.

49:37 Yeah.

49:38 Oh, both of us Oh, man.

49:41 I'm not even hungry.

49:42 I just feel bad.

49:43 I wonder what that is.

49:44 That's weird.

49:45 Yeah.

49:46 Yeah.

49:47 That's where I'm at.

49:48 Oh, man.

49:48 Like I don't even want to bring up my[ __] I kind of just want to go[ __] eat.

49:54 15th floor, what's it be like?

49:58 [sighs] Oh, look at that.

49:59 Okay.

50:00 This is the food poisoning part of the of the episode.

50:03 Oh, no.

50:05 He looks so unwell.

50:06 This is the worst shape I've been

50:07 like I got head shot on CT and Mirage.

50:10 Yeah.

50:11 Yeah, and I've come to pick up your AK.

50:15 [laughter] No, let's go.

50:15 Let's go.

50:16 Come on.

50:16 Come on.

50:17 Come on, bro.

50:18 Save yourself, bro.

50:19 Let's get to eating.

50:21 I didn't have my rice today, bro.

50:23 I didn't have my rice.

50:25 First of all, if you are feeling unwell, don't go outside.

50:28 Get some bed rest.

50:29 Stay in the hotel for a bit.

50:30 Didn't get me me Wrong.

50:32 Wrong, actually.

50:32 Go outside and eat at Wrong, actually.

50:33 Go outside and eat at the lobster place.

50:36 Get a really greasy bowl of me fun.

50:38 Char fun, even.

50:39 He needs rice to power up.

50:40 And today, I mean, honestly,

50:42 just kind of got[ __] You want to go to lobster place?

50:45 Okay, I'm not supposed to give medical advice over the internet,

50:48 but Ludwig's advice to Michael is clearly wrong.

50:51 So, I do need to correct [laughter] him on this.

50:53 The most immediate thing that you do when you get food poisoning,

50:57 even before you go see a doctor, know it's food poisoning.

51:00 We don't know it's food poisoning.

51:00 At this point, we're just saying we're crazy hungry.

51:05 Yes.

51:05 Yeah.

51:06 Michael's sitting there going, "I'm crazy hungry.

51:08 I haven't eaten today." She knows the food poisoning episode.

51:11 She just knows the food poisoning.

51:13 I didn't think we had food poisoning yet.

51:16 Yeah.

51:16 My first reaction wouldn't be eat more food.

51:18 The very first thing you do is do not eat any more food.

51:22 You're supposed to actually not intake any food for at least 24 to 36 hours.

51:27 knew that cuz that came up as a solid.

51:30 It felt like I was pooping my front.

51:32 Mhm.

51:33 It was pretty [laughter] bad.

51:35 you take even though you're trying to eat

51:37 more bland and more easily digestible food, that can still irritate the stomach

51:42 and make your diarrhea or food poisoning worse.

51:44 So, the best thing you can do for yourself Bro didn't even eating.

51:48 Okay, I'm[ __] You're not going to die from starvation, okay?

51:52 If you just starve yourself for 24 hours or know.

51:55 He didn't know at all.

51:56 He didn't know.

51:57 I didn't know.

51:58 uh drink something like this one can't be on us diarrhea or vomiting.

52:02 Um if you are really really hungry,

52:03 then make sure you're drinking some clear broth like chicken soup.

52:07 You can drink orange juice, uh those kind of things.

52:10 However, a little bit of nutrients and electrolytes as well

52:13 because you're losing a lot of electrolytes Wrong.

52:15 Don't drink water.

52:16 or vomiting.

52:17 If you don't have access to that, just forget about taking anything.

52:20 Just bottled clean water.

52:23 So, if they're actually going to have food poisoning,

52:25 then getting out of their hotel room and looking for more food to eat

52:30 and especially when you don't know if that food is safe or not,

52:33 it's definitely not a good idea.

52:35 the food poisoning, though.

52:36 There we go.

52:36 Do you want to go somewhere else maybe sometime tonight?

52:38 Do you think they got uh that looks like a lot of work.

52:41 That's like a crawfish boil thing.

52:43 Dude, I don't know what it is with hotels.

52:45 No, we do not we become[ __] We're bad.

52:47 We're bad.

52:47 No, we're good.

52:48 You definitely look like[ __] right here.

52:50 Thanks, man.

52:53 You know, you kind of look like[ __] right now.

52:55 So, maybe I have food poisoning right now.

52:57 Let me see your eyes.

52:58 Yeah, your eyes look weird.

53:01 [laughter] No, I do look like I'm green.

53:06 You look a little like pale, yeah.

53:08 putting on a brave face, dude.

53:09 I felt so horrible walking around here.

53:12 I felt fine here.

53:13 The only thing that was throwing me off is we passed this chicken

53:16 joint and it I it was like fried chicken and I went uh uh.

53:19 Yeah.

53:20 Oh, yeah.

53:20 Yeah.

53:21 You said that he he was like um he was like,

53:23 "Isn't it weird that the fried chicken

53:25 doesn't smell yummy right now?" And I said, "Just shut the[ __] up.

53:28 Let's eat.

53:28 Lobster time." Yeah.

53:30 We become [clears throat] absolute[ __] animals at the hotel.

53:33 Incapable of speaking or No, you're right on that.

53:36 Michael actually looks like he's in a really bad state right now.

53:39 He looks It's pale.

53:40 Okay.

53:42 I that's just my freaking complexion.

53:44 Not to her, she looks like Snape.

53:46 [laughter] He looks way less energetic.

53:50 Um yeah, they really should stay at the hotel tonight.

53:54 Yeah, it got my ass.

53:55 I don't understand a single word.

53:56 I think it's cuz we're so hungry by that point that our brains are fried.

54:00 I think we got thrown a curveball today.

54:02 Uh she was saying words I've never heard.

54:04 I wish I knew what she said, but we uh we ended that interaction horribly.

54:09 I don't feel so good.

54:11 You're fine, Yuma.

54:14 Chao fan.

54:14 Perfect.

54:16 Big three.

54:19 Dan chao fan is egg fried rice.

54:21 Not something I recommend anyone eating when

54:23 they're having food poisoning because there's oil

54:26 in there and oil can make your GI tract really irritated and move even faster.

54:30 Uh the faster your GI Wrong, oil lubricates the GI tract so that it

54:34 gets the food poisoning out of your body faster.

54:35 Wrong.

54:36 Typical pharmacist.

54:37 not irritated, so your stool I drink straight canola oil.

54:42 [laughter] I just choose a flower.

54:45 You take a shot, I squeeze it into my mouth.

54:47 stool can be more formed and you will stop the diarrhea.

54:51 __] me in the ass.

54:56 Yeah, I understood it perfectly.

54:57 I was just hoping.

55:00 In my mind, I'm like at some point this is

55:01 mi fan and you turn it into fried rice.

55:04 Right?

55:05 Like Like please.

55:06 If you have chao fan, you got mi fan somewhere.

55:09 know it's backwards.

55:10 Did the chao fan become or the mi fan become the plant as chao fan?

55:14 Does it start as chao fan?

55:16 I was like, how have we bastardized the word chao fan, huh?

55:22 Wait, what?

55:27 This is not a reasonable question.

55:29 Well, we're speaking fluently.

55:30 I don't know why we'd have [laughter] that.

55:35 This is[ __] something.

55:36 Something All right, we got at That looks so good.

55:41 Oh my god.

55:42 That's the worst money right now.

55:43 Yeah.

55:43 And we got to see it twice.

55:46 And we got to This looks insanely oily.

55:49 You guys see that layer of chili oil?

55:51 Just swimming at the top.

55:54 This is full of chili and spices.

55:56 But they're in the Hubei province.

55:58 Which is one of those provinces that like to eat spicy.

56:02 Yeah, at this point just do not eat anything, guys.

56:04 Go back to your hotel.

56:05 Don't eat anything.

56:06 And beef.

56:08 That beef was awesome.

56:09 But it was cold.

56:11 I wouldn't worry.

56:12 I can tell you right now it is cold.

56:14 So don't worry about it.

56:15 Because I can just tell you that it is cold.

56:19 Okay.

56:20 We're at Lobster King.

56:22 Michael don't feel good.

56:23 I don't feel good.

56:27 I pieces came together.

56:28 Lobster King.

56:29 Michael don't feel good.

56:30 I don't feel good.

56:31 We might have been poisoned.

56:33 I'm not sure if I trust the bread from Gonggan anymore.

56:38 But we made it.

56:38 I mean we crushed like 200 40 km today.

56:42 More.

56:43 More.

56:44 A lot of it backtracking but still like it was

56:47 an insanely long day for how cold and wet it was.

56:50 Turns out life's real hard without a phone with maps on it.

56:52 There was a bunch of backtracking on this day.

56:55 Yeah.

56:56 Started it yeah yeah yeah.

56:57 Created sadness in our bodies.

56:58 Cuz it's 240 km but like 180 maybe of progress.

57:02 Max.

57:05 Dude, some me fun.

57:07 That is kind of me fun.

57:09 This is your first time getting fried rice?

57:11 Michael's healed.

57:12 Oh[ __] Ma ma ma me fun.

57:17 I've sent Michael back to his room.

57:19 He's not feeling good, bro.

57:21 I do think we ate something bad.

57:24 Which obviously like it's concerning anytime you go to a different country.

57:27 But surprise how it happened.

57:29 Cuz all we had today was the breakfasts at the Hilton,

57:34 which we had different items, and then bakery bread.

57:37 So, I don't I don't know what hit him.

57:39 Okay, tips for you guys to Dude, do you remember, was it that breakfast?

57:45 Was that the one that was like so insanely weird and empty?

57:50 No, that was later.

57:51 That No, yeah, that was in Ba Ba Ba Ying Jing.

57:54 Yeah.

57:55 But you did Ying Jing.

57:56 But you did Ying Jing.

57:58 It was Yeah, it was in like the desert town.

57:59 I don't remember that breakfast.

58:00 The crazy empty one.

58:01 This one, I don't even know if we went to breakfast.

58:03 review breakfast?

58:05 At At this one?

58:06 I don't know.

58:06 We did a meal review breakfast.

58:07 Maybe it didn't make it in the the final cut.

58:10 Chat, did you ever see a video with meal review, but it was breakfast?

58:16 No, that that Wasn't that at the the the Oh, that's later than that.

58:22 That's the At the five-star super nice hot spring.

58:25 the hot spring one, the hot spring one.

58:26 I think it's tomorrow, actually.

58:27 It's next episode.

58:29 minimize getting food poisoning when you travel to China.

58:32 I know for Ludwig and Michael, they have no choice.

58:35 They just have to eat wherever they go.

58:37 But when you guys travel, you do have a choice.

58:39 First of all, this is just common sense.

58:41 Avoid using tap water.

58:43 Tap water is not safe in China.

58:44 So, always drink from bottled water,

58:47 even when you're brushing your teeth, you're rinsing your throat.

58:49 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

58:50 Hold on.

58:51 That's insane, though.

58:52 She said even when brushing your teeth, that's extra.

58:54 I I I just we did not do that, yeah.

58:55 No, that's insane behavior, I think.

58:57 anything that requires water, just use bottled water if you can.

59:00 Don't get iced drinks or iced stuff from any food stalls because

59:05 the ice could be made from tap water and it's not clean.

59:09 We were going hot only.

59:10 Avoid raw fish, raw meat, undercooked meat.

59:14 Avoid anything that's been sitting out

59:16 Tap water is not safe.

59:16 Yeah, but like Can I say you're being a little[

59:20 __] extra if you use bottled water to wet your toothbrush?

59:23 That's insane.

59:24 I'm kind of on it.

59:24 I I don't swallow it when I'm in China.

59:27 the toothpaste anyways, fine.

59:28 I think that's crazy behavior.

59:30 for too long.

59:31 Now, I'm just trying to think what

59:32 could have caused the diarrhea food poisoning.

59:35 Could the bread that they ate cause this?

59:37 Potentially, um you know, it could be a E.

59:39 coli infection if the bread maker go to the bathroom,

59:43 do not wash their hands, come back and eat the bread.

59:46 Yeah.

59:49 [laughter] It was the filling in the bread, man.

59:53 dog and poop.

59:56 Then the E.

59:56 coli bacteria is going to get into the bread.

59:59 There's also lots of other virus and bacteria

1:00:01 like norovirus that could uh you know,

1:00:03 be transmitted into food if the food

1:00:05 handler is not observing safe food procedures.

1:00:09 Thing is Michael's also like very um like safe with like germs.

1:00:16 I am pretty yeah, pretty neurotic about that stuff.

1:00:19 I always be hand sanitizing after we touch anything.

1:00:23 He's hand sanitizing before like anything ever enters

1:00:26 his mouth ever and like after as well.

1:00:29 Like like mega on that[ __] And so yeah, I you know,

1:00:34 it's it wasn't like I don't think it's something we did.

1:00:37 No.

1:00:38 100% it was silly durian filling which I'm

1:00:41 starting to think was not durian in that bread.

1:00:44 I'm having an inkling.

1:00:46 Rito John[ __] in this bread for me.

1:00:47 [laughter] And sell it to foreigners.

1:00:51 The other big thing I was thinking of is hepatitis A.

1:00:54 Hepatitis A is unfortunately also quite prevalent in China,

1:00:58 but hepatitis A actually has a pretty long incubation period like over 2 weeks.

1:01:03 So, after infection,

1:01:05 usually will have no symptoms for 2 weeks and then you'll develop symptoms.

1:01:09 have got it half in the US and then gone to China, yeah.

1:01:12 Cuz the Chinese food wouldn't do this to us.

1:01:13 Yeah, and it just hit us at the same time.

1:01:15 Symptoms are diarrhea, vomiting, you can get jaundice,

1:01:18 you can get really, really sick.

1:01:19 I don't think they've been in China for 2 weeks yet

1:01:21 and this looks more like something that's within the same day.

1:01:25 Um I don't think that's from hepatitis A.

1:01:27 But get your hepatitis A vaccine before you travel,

1:01:30 or if you think you've gotten it before,

1:01:32 you can ask your doctor to just draw some blood

1:01:34 and test if you have hepatitis A antibodies in your blood.

1:01:37 That's hep before you travel and tell me which hep I got.

1:01:40 My stomach brewing up a[ __] that you never even thought before.

1:01:45 [laughter] So hopefully it's like Back to the video.

1:01:47 Thank you.

1:01:48 But get like 10 minute like She's going on her[ __] [laughter]

1:01:51 her doctor explanation her pharmacy explanation.

1:01:56 [laughter] I got big boob in me stomach.

1:01:59 It brewing crazy.

1:02:00 I got witches down there doing crafts.

1:02:03 [laughter] Well, you know, just an upset tummy, something you get over,

1:02:07 you eat a bit of rice, you move on from.

1:02:10 This could spiral.

1:02:12 I don't know where he got Get a tummy ache, eat a bit of rice.

1:02:16 I mean, I kind of get it.

1:02:18 Rice is considered a more plain and bland food,

1:02:21 but the best thing to do is just don't eat anything.

1:02:24 You don't want anything else to trigger your stomach.

1:02:26 No shade.

1:02:27 What if I'm hungry?

1:02:27 She's also never benched 225, so it's like

1:02:30 [laughter]

1:02:30 You know what I mean?

1:02:30 It's like yeah, that's fine for you,

1:02:32 cuz you're going to lose mass, you're going to lose gains.

1:02:34 But like a guy like me, he's willing to eat that[ __] because you get a little

1:02:37 bit of that nutrition before you throw it up crazy style.

1:02:40 imagine missing your anabolic window.

1:02:42 I'm not going to miss that anabolic window, bro.

1:02:44 She don't bench nearly as much as me, and it's like no shade, bro.

1:02:46 Like keep keep to you, I guess.

1:02:50 I got a crazy[ __] in me.

1:02:53 This is the last bit of normal footage.

1:02:57 Graphic content ahead.

1:02:59 You've been warned, guys.

1:02:59 a great shot.

1:03:01 Warning, guys.

1:03:03 Oh, no.

1:03:06 Oh my god.

1:03:11 I never seen that.

1:03:12 I never saw this.

1:03:16 [laughter] What happened there?

1:03:23 [laughter and gasps] Dude.

1:03:23 What the[ __] is going on?

1:03:25 I look like Squeezy, bro.

1:03:26 I look crazy.

1:03:29 [laughter]

1:03:30 You turn French when you're sick, man.

1:03:33 Uh why did you set up the camera?

1:03:35 So, I was walking.

1:03:36 We didn't put the shot in, but I'm walking and I

1:03:39 stop and I like I feel like I'm going to throw up.

1:03:41 So, I kneel.

1:03:42 I'm like I'm like on against this wall and I just feel for a second.

1:03:45 I was like, "Dude, I feel like crazy.

1:03:47 I have to kneel just so I don't throw up.

1:03:50 But, I'm going to try to make it back to the hotel, but I went the wrong way.

1:03:53 I took a right out of the lobster joint instead of a left.

1:03:56 So, I have to walk around the whole[ __] building.

1:03:59 Oh, you did a lap.

1:04:00 It's a way longer walk.

1:04:02 So, then I'm like walking and I and I'm like, "Off.

1:04:05 It's just going to come." And so, I'm like, "All right,

1:04:07 I might as well I might as well capture

1:04:09 it because I'm already here." All right, we got poisoned.

1:04:15 I think it was in The awesome thing

1:04:16 about throwing up is right after you throw up,

1:04:19 you feel so awesome.

1:04:21 Dude, and then the sad thing is it goes back to Oh my god.

1:04:25 Suck it.

1:04:26 And for the food poisoning.

1:04:30 [laughter] All right, dude, W transition, too.

1:04:38 Just me on the[ __] curb.

1:04:39 Yeah, look at that moped mess.

1:04:41 Look at our transition.

1:04:42 Oh, he had to slow down the moped.

1:04:43 We got poisoned.

1:04:46 I think it was in Gangnam.

1:04:48 I'm assuming Michael right now is in the hotel room throwing up.

1:04:51 Dude.

1:04:52 Holy[ __]

1:04:53 at the foot of my bed trying so hard not to throw up.

1:04:56 You waited to throw up till I got back.

1:04:57 You like held it for a bit.

1:04:59 I thought you would have I thought I could power through.

1:05:01 It's crazy you made the walk back, by the way.

1:05:03 Dude, I I didn't film this part cuz I was about to throw up,

1:05:06 but I go up to the room, the key card doesn't work.

1:05:09 I have to go back to the[ __] lobby and say boo sow boo

1:05:15 sow and with my key card and then a guy comes up with me

1:05:19 to make the key card work at the door and I say thank you

1:05:21 and then I I I crumple I crumple as soon as I get in.

1:05:24 Throw up in front of them.

1:05:25 Yeah.

1:05:26 All right.

1:05:27 We got to get something for our tummies.

1:05:30 Oh, I'm going to get me a Michael something.

1:05:32 Okay.

1:05:32 All right, I'll see what they got.

1:05:34 Maybe I just look shitty enough to feel a little good after this.

1:05:38 I After I threw up I was like I'm back.

1:05:40 Okay, okay, okay.

1:05:41 I'm going to get something for me and Michael.

1:05:42 We're going to feel healed from this.

1:05:44 So I walk in I'm like I'm going to get us

1:05:45 like I don't know just like a little something for your tummy.

1:05:48 Something?

1:05:49 Maybe some rice.

1:05:52 [laughter] Sure why not?

1:05:56 Ah.

1:05:57 Woah woah woah.

1:06:01 [laughter] This is Okay.

1:06:12 I like that lighting cuz it that's what we I was seeing.

1:06:15 Yeah.

1:06:15 At the foot of the bed.

1:06:16 an artistic choice.

1:06:17 Yeah, just great.

1:06:18 By the way, I understood that conversation perfectly.

1:06:21 Oh, yeah?

1:06:21 Yeah, well look.

1:06:24 Okay, they're telling him to go see a doctor.

1:06:26 There's a hospital 5 minutes ahead.

1:06:29 Uh she's telling him to go see the doctor.

1:06:30 Okay, since it seems like you guys like poop stories,

1:06:33 I'm going to tell you guys another personal poop story that I had on my last

1:06:37 trip to China which So it was not your[ __] butt[ __] or what?

1:06:40 After a nice dinner at a nice restaurant with my family,

1:06:43 I went back to my hotel and I believe about 6 hours later,

1:06:47 I developed really bad food poisoning.

1:06:50 So I was having diarrhea every 3

1:06:52 Are you sure it wasn't altitude sickness?

1:06:54 Could have been You shouldn't have ate food.

1:06:56 That's the thing.

1:06:57 You shouldn't have ate food.

1:06:57 You shouldn't have ate food.

1:06:58 You should have drank water bottles.

1:06:59 So if you felt that was in your stomach,

1:07:00 the best thing to do is keep your GI tract clean.

1:07:03 Maybe lie down for a while.

1:07:04 Maybe take a shot out canola oil.

1:07:06 minutes I was having vomiting every hour and it would just take turns.

1:07:11 Uh and that happened for about 3 to 4 hours continuously.

1:07:16 Also, I had 10 out of 10 intense stomach pain, intense stomach cramps.

1:07:21 So, I was sweating, I was having fever,

1:07:24 I was just rolling in bed and obviously in that state,

1:07:28 I couldn't go downstairs to find a pharmacy.

1:07:31 And here's what you guys do if you're in your hotel and you need medicine.

1:07:34 You can use the delivery app to get medication.

1:07:37 I'm going to show you how.

1:07:39 But, you're going to have your WeChat app, right?

1:07:41 So, in your WeChat app, you'll see pay and services.

1:07:43 There is the Meituan mini app group buying built into the WeChat app.

1:07:48 So, you're going to click there and when you

1:07:50 click on this {dot} {dot} {dot} here, there is

1:07:52 to eat Mr.

1:07:52 Pi's pizza?

1:07:55 [laughter] Now, the entire Meituan app is in English.

1:07:58 However, the search function does not work if you're searching in English.

1:08:02 So, you would have to search in Chinese.

1:08:04 You can type pharmacy and you see how that's automatically translated.

1:08:08 Okay, so you can see when you click into a pharmacy,

1:08:11 usually on the left-hand side, there is a list of categories.

1:08:15 So, you can pick gastrointestinal or GI or stomach.

1:08:19 Uh you can see there's omeprazole.

1:08:21 Omeprazole is a really commonly used

1:08:22 proton pump inhibitor to decrease stomach acid.

1:08:26 It's not used for food poisoning,

1:08:27 but if you're having a lot of heartburn or nausea,

1:08:30 you can try Oh, it was belladonna.

1:08:33 So, I took it.

1:08:34 I'm going to make a whole video about how I got prescribed

1:08:37 one of the deadliest poisons in China when I got food poisoning.

1:08:41 Belladonna.

1:08:41 What a crazy scam.

1:08:42 Belladonna is what it's called.

1:08:44 That sounds like Chappelle Ron's opener.

1:08:47 It's a cool [laughter] name for a poisonous medicine.

1:08:49 sure you're subscribed to my channel so you don't miss that video.

1:08:53 Point me in the direction of like a hospital.

1:08:57 I think I might have come off a little more ill than I wanted to.

1:09:01 You look gaunt.

1:09:03 I do look gaunt.

1:09:04 sunken in.

1:09:05 In my head, I was just like a I was just like a[ __] little guy going,

1:09:08 "My tummy hurt." And I thought she'd be like,

1:09:10 "Oh, yeah, just take this." But I I did clock that she instantly was like,

1:09:15 "Go to a[ __] hospital, bro." I was more so looking for a "Hey,

1:09:19 what's something I can get for my tummy vibes?" No.

1:09:22 All right, if pharmacy don't work, next best option.

1:09:25 The guy who sells cigarettes.

1:09:29 [laughter] I got camel blues on.

1:09:30 Just some bread and No, no bread.

1:09:34 assume is the equivalent of like a Gatorade or something.

1:09:37 Okay, Gatorade is fine.

1:09:37 and Michael, which Oh my god.

1:09:41 Hopefully he hasn't thrown up.

1:09:42 But I'm guessing he did.

1:09:44 In the hotel room, seems like Michael's feeling all right.

1:09:49 So, we're just going to chill here though, probably not go out anymore.

1:09:54 You know, will it impact the trip?

1:09:55 Who knows.

1:09:57 Tonight's not the night we'll figure that out,

1:09:58 but in good news, who wants more bread?

1:10:06 That's also probably one of the worst breads you can eat [clears throat] when

1:10:09 you're having food poisoning because this is

1:10:11 called xian niu ru liu xin mian bao.

1:10:14 So, it's a bread filled with a lot of fresh milk.

1:10:17 Okay, I said you should try not to eat, right?

1:10:20 For at least 1 or 2 days after food poisoning.

1:10:22 1 or 2 days?

1:10:24 Nah, see, here's the thing.

1:10:25 We're trying to get to Arliand how to, and you need calories.

1:10:28 You see this?

1:10:29 You're not dealing with that on no calories.

1:10:31 You just aren't going to be[ __] dealing with that on Sometimes you do this.

1:10:36 [groaning] If you have to eat, you should go for really bland food like

1:10:41 It looks so bland.

1:10:42 It looks so bland.

1:10:44 __] I was like, "Milk bread, that's bland." Yeah, white and black packaging?

1:10:48 Um some white rice, I guess if you're in China.

1:10:51 Maybe a white rice congee or something extremely bland.

1:10:55 The food that you absolutely to avoid are number one, dairy products.

1:11:01 That's because a lot of people will have secondary lactose intolerance.

1:11:05 I'm sure you guys all have friends who are lactose intolerant.

1:11:08 They don't have the Are you a little lactose?

1:11:09 Not even a little bit.

1:11:10 Not even a little bit.

1:11:11 I got the good Asian genes.

1:11:13 Me neither, bro.

1:11:14 I also got that good Asian gene.

1:11:15 I'm lactase to digest [laughter] lactose that's needed to digest milk products.

1:11:20 When you are You got like a sharting guy.

1:11:22 I'm going to get it.

1:11:23 Your GI tract is down.

1:11:24 I'm like a sharting Oh[ __] bro.

1:11:25 I sharted.

1:11:25 Yeah, he's a sharting boy.

1:11:26 And there's damage to the cellular level.

1:11:29 During this period of time, you may be worse at producing lactase.

1:11:33 So, that's why it's called secondary lactose intolerant.

1:11:36 Normally, you're fine, but when you're undergoing a medical condition,

1:11:39 you now become lactose intolerant.

1:11:41 So, do not take any dairy products if you have food poisoning.

1:11:45 Second thing you want to avoid is obviously spicy or oily food.

1:11:49 That's going to irritate your stomach

1:11:50 just ate spicy edamame and then dairy.

1:11:55 [laughter] Oops.

1:11:55 Besides, I make it worse.

1:11:56 I would avoid all seafoods,

1:11:57 even if I would probably avoid any fresh fruits or vegetables uncooked,

1:12:01 and probably I would avoid meat products and egg products as well.

1:12:08 that's kind of every food in the whole world.

1:12:12 Oh, part two.

1:12:14 Oh my god, I feel so bad for them.

1:12:15 Dude, that toilet [laughter] It was so bad.

1:12:22 Like anyone who stayed in that room, I feel so horrible for.

1:12:26 I'd go in and I'd be like, this toilet kind of smells like[ __] like poop,

1:12:31 and then I'd just immediately throw up

1:12:32 from that, and then you probably went and you went,

1:12:35 this toilet smells like throw up, and it made you spray out your ass.

1:12:38 It was just a vicious cycle.

1:12:40 We we we basically were two different ends of the same snake.

1:12:45 Yeah.

1:12:46 Yeah.

1:12:45 Cuz I only[ __] Michael only threw up.

1:12:47 We're two guys you have to solve our riddle.

1:12:50 One time I[ __] so crazy, I had to throw up.

1:12:54 [laughter]

1:12:54 It was really It was just two different beasts.

1:12:56 True.

1:12:57 It was two different beasts.

1:12:57 Yeah, I only had one poop the whole time in this.

1:13:01 I threw up, I think in this room, once.

1:13:04 And then I probably[ __] like[ __] seven times.

1:13:08 That's crazy.

1:13:10 How the[ __] did bread do this?

1:13:12 I Dude, it was that weird tasting bread, bro.

1:13:15 It's bread.

1:13:16 I thought it was dirt.

1:13:17 We didn't even eat it all.

1:13:20 What a laxative bread.

1:13:21 No, yeah, it's going pretty good.

1:13:23 I'm thinking cuz we got in early tonight,

1:13:27 probably we'll do like uh I don't know, like an early start tomorrow?

1:13:32 do you think, Lid?

1:13:33 Oh.

1:13:36 [laughter]

1:13:35 Gollum it.

1:13:38 Yeah.

1:13:39 I got it, dude.

1:13:40 No.

1:13:42 [laughter]

1:13:41 That was good, dude.

1:13:46 Dude, I got some crazy memories of that Dude, that night was a fever[ __] dream.

1:13:55 had We were like It was really cold even though the heater was on max heat.

1:13:59 Yeah, it was freezing cold, bro.

1:14:01 I was languishing on the couch like right under the heater.

1:14:04 Yeah, you were on the like the like the sex couch.

1:14:07 Yeah, it smelled like that.

1:14:09 And I was just in my bed[ __] tucked in.

1:14:12 But he was shaking.

1:14:13 But like it was it was I think until cuz

1:14:17 we probably were in that hotel room like 9:30 or something.

1:14:20 Maybe Yeah, probably 9:30-ish.

1:14:22 Maybe even earlier.

1:14:23 And it was like probably six hours of just

1:14:27 every 30 minutes one of us going to the bathroom.

1:14:31 Yeah, yeah, we just take turns.

1:14:33 And neither of us slept until I I probably What

1:14:37 ended up happening is um Alicia came with some meds.

1:14:42 The RV crew came and they and they helped us out.

1:14:44 They brought They brought a few things.

1:14:47 Uh one of them was like this vial Vile in every sense of the word.

1:14:55 It was like a little vial of vile a goo.

1:14:58 Like medicinal oil essentially that you had to pierce

1:15:02 with a little straw and you sucked all the goo out.

1:15:05 Yeah.

1:15:06 It was like this ancient Chinese vial of She was like,

1:15:09 "This is This is a Chinese medicine makes you feel better."

1:15:12 This is make you feel real good.

1:15:13 And we both threw it up like within 10 minutes.

1:15:16 Yeah, 10 minutes of it.

1:15:16 It was It was tough.

1:15:18 Tasted horrific.

1:15:19 It did taste horrific.

1:15:21 And then the other thing that we had was

1:15:24 [clears throat] that It was like that pill, right?

1:15:29 The pill that was like There were a couple pills.

1:15:31 There was like an anti-shit pill.

1:15:33 There was an anti-throw up pill.

1:15:35 Both of them I throwed up the first time I took them.

1:15:39 I But I remember I took one.

1:15:40 I was like, "This is the miracle pill, Michael.

1:15:42 You need to take it." I was like, "Shit,

1:15:43 that's a fuck." And And that was the one And I think it was the butt meds.

1:15:47 That I did I took the butt med and And the butt med set me right.

1:15:52 I had the butt med.

1:15:52 I had my milk bread.

1:15:54 Yeah.

1:15:54 Yeah.

1:15:55 Cuz I wanted a little food with it.

1:15:56 to the milk bread.

1:15:57 Cuz I I know like I know she's saying you're not supposed to eat,

1:16:00 but in my experience

1:16:03 is hungry but also if I take any medicine without a little food in my body,

1:16:07 my body usually rejects it.

1:16:09 Like I need some padding for the medicine.

1:16:13 Otherwise, I really like can't handle it tummy-wise.

1:16:17 Yeah, fair.

1:16:18 Uh but anyway, whatever that medicine was is our butt We didn't suppository it.

1:16:22 It was just a medicine for your butt.

1:16:25 But whatever that butt med was set me straight.

1:16:27 And then if from like I probably 3:30 on, I didn't throw up or[ __] myself.

1:16:34 I was like chilling.

1:16:36 I think you were kind of the same.

1:16:38 Yeah, it was pretty close to 3:30 or 4:00.

1:16:40 Um but it was It was it was rough.

1:16:43 Yeah, I was having crazy thoughts and a lot of them were in Chinese.

1:16:47 Um, yeah, I had like I had like I don't know.

1:16:50 I had this happens to me sometimes when I'm delirious and sick,

1:16:52 but I have this thing with like numbers.

1:16:54 Really?

1:16:55 Yeah, I started thinking about numbers and they[ __] scare me.

1:16:58 You were like Mason from Black Ops 1 in the chair.

1:17:01 I am like Mason from Black Ops 1 in the chair

1:17:03 just[ __] and numbers are freaking me the[ __] out.

1:17:06 Dude, yeah.

1:17:06 I I yeah, I was doing it with like Chinese the language when I couldn't sleep.

1:17:11 I was like[ __] Chinese.

1:17:13 __] alting in my mumbling it out.

1:17:15 Yeah, there's yeah, it's it's just delirium, bro.

1:17:18 There's like no you can't sleep.

1:17:20 You're trying to rest.

1:17:22 It is it is a crazy life to live.

1:17:25 I heard the Bilibili comments and I've seen it's a bit of them.

1:17:27 I'll be honest or atrocious on this episode.

1:17:32 But I'm happy to take a look.

1:17:34 Okay, you search got to make piss.

1:17:42 All right, this is episode 7, right?

1:17:44 Yeah.

1:17:47 Not trying to be biased here.

1:17:49 Both of them getting sick at the same time clearly points to a food problem.

1:17:52 The golden rain just made it worse.

1:17:53 Plus the bread tasted off so they didn't even finish it.

1:17:55 The advice is to stick to package food as much

1:17:57 as possible and eat at cleaner restaurants for the next couple days.

1:17:59 Eat lukewarm food.

1:18:01 I have a weak stomach myself and seeing

1:18:02 them throw up like that was heartbreaking.

1:18:04 Yeah, I think there was a big basically argument or discussion

1:18:08 on Bilibili as to whether or not this is food poisoning.

1:18:13 And I think it comes from a point of like pride.

1:18:17 It's like I I think people want to I don't I

1:18:22 don't think like I think people in China want to be like,

1:18:24 "Hey, our country's not like bad.

1:18:25 We don't have bad food.

1:18:26 We have good safety standards for our foods.

1:18:29 It's definitely not food poisoning or whatever." Uh,

1:18:32 but I think it just dead ass was food poisoning.

1:18:34 I don't think that's a reflection of China as a whole.

1:18:37 You know what I mean?

1:18:37 I don't think that makes China an L country,

1:18:40 but um but I think it's okay to acknowledge

1:18:44 that you got food I think it's fine to do.

1:18:47 Nick got food poisoning yesterday.

1:18:50 He went to Chipotle.

1:18:51 Do you know what I mean?

1:18:51 Like it happens.

1:18:54 You know, ideally it doesn't happen.

1:18:56 Ideally the safety standards of a country are high

1:18:58 enough that you can trust the food you get,

1:19:01 but you can get food poisoning anywhere in the world,

1:19:03 even places with really high uh food safety standards.

1:19:07 I thought he was going to the hospital, then the camera cuts back to the hotel.

1:19:10 Yeah, I I think uh It didn't occur to us once.

1:19:13 It it That's definitely an American thing,

1:19:15 cuz I it did not I would never have thought ever to go to the hospital for this.

1:19:19 For food Yeah, me neither.

1:19:20 I I like I guess it is like a super easy reality

1:19:23 in or like a logical reality in China to just go to the freaking clinic,

1:19:26 but I just want to throw up in peace sometimes.

1:19:28 Yeah, I think a lot of places on Earth you you

1:19:30 can just go to the hospital and you they probably get you

1:19:32 some like fluids and then you don't have to eat to upset

1:19:36 your your stomach and then they just monitor you or whatever,

1:19:40 but but I would never go.

1:19:42 Not even from a cost perspective.

1:19:44 I just I would be thinking to myself like the[ __] are they going to do for me?

1:19:48 I should just tough it out.

1:19:49 Yeah, I'm not sure what they really could.

1:19:50 I guess give you the medicine that we were already eating.

1:19:53 I think they Yeah, I think give you the medicine medicine and give you fluids.

1:19:57 Uh I also would never have gone in China, even if I knew that it was better,

1:20:01 because I would not want to deal with the interaction

1:20:04 of trying to hold on while I'm throwing up.

1:20:07 Yeah.

1:20:08 And and it's like, you know,

1:20:09 if I miscommunicate what I have and they give me the wrong You know what I mean?

1:20:13 It's like Yeah, it's way harder in a country where you don't speak the language.

1:20:17 Agreed.

1:20:17 Um ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba Travels,

1:20:21 getting sick [snorts] from the change of environment is inevitable.

1:20:23 It must have been the rain.

1:20:25 I think have been throwing up eight rains out of my stomach.

1:20:32 Yeah, I think I think it's it's it's a lot of arguing.

1:20:34 I think they also docked the Gong Gong Chinese bakery.

1:20:37 They found it and I think they might have review bombed it.

1:20:40 That's sad.

1:20:41 Yeah.

1:20:42 I feel bad for Gong Gong now.

1:20:44 But anyway, the the Billy Billy comments

1:20:45 is mostly arguing about food poisoning so

1:20:47 I'll let them be and we move on to the next episode which is clickbait.

1:20:52 We might have to leave China.

1:20:54 We didn't have to leave China.

1:20:57 So we got food poisoning.

1:20:59 I didn't realize my dogs were out.

1:21:01 It's good they are.

1:21:04 It could have been worse, bro.

1:21:05 I guess that's fair.

1:21:07 But between 9:00 p.m.

1:21:08 and 3:00 a.m.

1:21:10 That wasn't?

1:21:10 [snorts] No, not even close.

1:21:12 I mean it was bad, but like like of food poisonings I've had,

1:21:16 that was the least bad one.

1:21:18 I think I was top two worst food.

1:21:20 That was pretty bad for me.

1:21:21 Okay, but you've had it so many times.

1:21:23 I have had it like six times probably.

1:21:26 But usually it's like I throw up twice and I'm done.

1:21:30 Mhm.

1:21:31 Sometimes like I just throw up once and I'm good.

1:21:33 Ah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

1:21:34 Uh but this one it was like I don't know

1:21:36 if my body wanted to expunge everything inside of it.

1:21:39 Yeah, and it kept expunging even though there was nothing left to give.

1:21:42 Didn't you look it up?

1:21:43 You were like, "Apparently your body throws everything up,

1:21:46 but it's too late." Yeah, yeah, I was looking it up.

1:21:48 It was like the body's like, you know when you drink too much alcohol,

1:21:50 it's good to throw it up cuz there's still some alcohol in your tummy.

1:21:55 Right.

1:21:54 But dude, food poisoning is already like

1:21:56 already seeped past whatever the blood brain barrier

1:21:59 that's in your stomach and it's

1:22:00 your and your body thinks it's throwing something up,

1:22:02 but it's just throwing up goo and it does

1:22:04 nothing and I wish you could turn it off.

1:22:05 Oh, this is the vial by the way

1:22:07 of the Chinese meds that did not sit well with us.

1:22:10 You threw up every like 30 minutes and I[ __] every 30 minutes.

1:22:16 Pretty awesome.

1:22:16 [laughter] I don't know how does a piece of bread do that to a human being?

1:22:20 I've been like juggling in my mind if

1:22:21 like we're idiots and it was like laxative bread.

1:22:24 Don't[ __] pretend like it's like that exists.

1:22:27 Cuz the holiday bread bad.

1:22:29 True, how does bread get bad?

1:22:31 Like like I assume bread She goes, "The laxative bread, interesting choice."

1:22:35 [laughter] It's only 10 yuan, go ahead.

1:22:37 suicide in this place.

1:22:39 It gets mold on it before it goes like does this, you know?

1:22:42 Apparently not.

1:22:42 Maybe they dusted it.

1:22:44 Yeah, maybe they hit it with a little bit of a freaking poppy seed dust.

1:22:47 But also we got like crazy chills and we're having ridiculous dreams.

1:22:51 Dude, do you have any crazy dream?

1:22:53 Uh yeah, I got robbed in You got robbed yeah.

1:22:57 That is a bad one.

1:22:58 I dreamt that I was rolling the whole world up in a Katamari Damacy ball.

1:23:01 I dreamt that I made This was a crazy dream.

1:23:04 I completely

1:23:06 No.

1:23:06 No, people kept dying in my ball.

1:23:08 It was like a like it wasn't like fun Katamari game.

1:23:11 It was like I had invented a gyroscopic

1:23:14 procession orb that could stick anything to it.

1:23:17 And I I was rolling the whole world up,

1:23:19 but I kept like killing people on accident.

1:23:22 Like you got mad with power,

1:23:23 and then your ball got too big, it got out of control.

1:23:25 Yeah, I kept picking up like telephone poles.

1:23:26 A telephone pole would like skewer a guy,

1:23:28 be like, "Fuck!" And then I'd keep going.

1:23:30 Katamari nightmare, nightmare, nightmare, [laughter] yeah.

1:23:32 insane.

1:23:33 You became a tornado.

1:23:34 It was awesome.

1:23:34 a gyroscope thing that made Katamari possible.

1:23:37 And it was very like we had to push the ball,

1:23:39 and we were like collecting people, and people were getting stuck in it,

1:23:42 and I was like, "It's fine, it's worth it." And It's fine.

1:23:44 It's the Gongan baker.

1:23:46 The Gongan baker.

1:23:47 And another good news though.

1:23:49 It's raining.

1:23:49 It's raining.

1:23:50 It's raining again.

1:23:52 Day four of rain.

1:23:53 Not even that late to start.

1:23:54 I thought it was like To be honest, I've lost track.

1:23:57 Yeah, fair.

1:23:58 It's You know what?

1:23:58 Either way, it's more rain days than not rain days.

1:24:01 It was raining so much weird for an arid steppe.

1:24:04 It's very arid.

1:24:06 It's very This is a very rare place.

1:24:08 It's mostly a[ __] you know,

1:24:10 it's a desert for a lot of it, so doesn't rain much.

1:24:13 Uh but I think we still got to crush 200 today.

1:24:19 I did it.

1:24:20 I feel like I can do it.

1:24:21 I feel like we could do it.

1:24:22 I think I'm going to shower again.

1:24:24 I'm covered in poop.

1:24:25 Yeah, that's not a bad call.

1:24:26 Covered in poop and vomit and it feel kind of good.

1:25:33 Yeah.

1:25:33 He uh He went up to the RV crew.

1:25:35 Um I got a bunch of strawberries the day before I was cut out.

1:25:38 Um and then I gave it to the RV

1:25:41 crew cuz I couldn't carry the strawberries with me.

1:25:43 And he went with Dan to go wash the strawberries.

1:25:47 Oh.

1:25:47 And then I think he got a bunch of like

1:25:49 don't get food poisoning from them.

1:25:50 He got a bunch of treats and then gave them to the RV.

1:25:54 That's really nice.

1:26:00 You know that one?

1:26:01 E do sun fun.

1:26:04 Sunni Uh Sunni You way.

1:26:08 Uh This is You way.

1:26:10 Yeah, we give him a thank you.

1:26:12 Okay.

1:26:14 I'll be back in a second.

1:26:16 Yeah, the issue with my bike is I I to stand on my tippy toes,

1:26:19 so it's really hard to back up.

1:26:20 So hard.

1:26:21 Yeah, that's cuz I actually can touch it with my feet, the ground.

1:26:26 Yeah, I can uh push you back.

1:26:28 I think I can get it if I just Yeah, it's so hard when you can't touch it.

1:26:32 Okay, uh give a little more.

1:26:35 Welcome to my dark twisted mind.

1:26:37 Yeah, I'm going to get Yeah, I'm going to get Yeah, I'm going to push

1:26:39 This is how we start rolling up the world.

1:26:42 We caught this nice man in the first.

1:26:44 Oh, what a nice dude.

1:26:46 Good pull back.

1:26:47 I love that he's keeping it.

1:26:48 [laughter] It's like my mom with the[ __] shopping cart.

1:26:52 Oh, dude.

1:26:53 We're back.

1:26:54 It is a 2:00 p.m.

1:26:57 start time.

1:26:58 Not even that bad also considering that we

1:27:00 were just[ __] up from food poisoning.

1:27:02 Yeah.

1:27:03 The fact that we're out here at all is pretty cool.

1:27:06 Yeah, I do feel crazy weak today.

1:27:08 Okay, oh, and it's raining.

1:27:10 All right.

1:27:11 It's fine.

1:27:12 I think it's to our right, but we have a blue sign that'll tell us,

1:27:15 so I think we hit that blue sign and then just go the cardinal direction.

1:27:19 We try to get too fancy with it.

1:27:20 Let's just drive in the northern Just Just go north, lol.

1:27:23 Just go[ __] north, idiots.

1:27:25 Yeah, right does feel north.

1:27:27 Which is So, it's good that we crossed the river.

1:27:29 We pretty much[ __] had to.

1:27:30 Dude.

1:27:31 Not so bad.

1:27:31 It's so hard in a city.

1:27:34 It's not so bad.

1:27:35 Because what happens is there's there's a national

1:27:37 road that'll lead you to the city,

1:27:39 but the national road is not within the confines of the city.

1:27:41 They It They do not label it.

1:27:43 It is no longer there.

1:27:45 It is all city roads, right?

1:27:46 But it leads to the national road and it is the same road.

1:27:49 Yes, but if you get past the city,

1:27:51 the national road reappears and it and it does connect through some city roads,

1:27:55 but there's no label to it.

1:27:56 So, you just have to like get out of the city and then try to refind it again.

1:28:01 It's a huge pain.

1:28:01 I think otherwise we would have to have

1:28:03 done that big di- diversion around the Yangtze.

1:28:08 Yeah, no one likes that.

1:28:09 On a scale of 1 to 10, where's your body at?

1:28:11 I'm like a four.

1:28:12 You?

1:28:13 I ain't going to go right there.

1:28:14 Yeah.

1:28:15 Yeah.

1:28:15 Honestly, I'll probably got to go non-verbal at times to not throw up,

1:28:19 but other than that, I feel pretty good.

1:28:21 Yeah, this is our least chatty day.

1:28:23 We said about four words to each other and just twisted the throttle.

1:28:26 We just twisted and and listened to music.

1:28:28 I don't even know, I might have listened to more of my Vegeta playlist here.

1:28:31 Wind on my face feels nice driving around.

1:28:33 Just like to be back on my hog.

1:28:36 Feels good to be back on the hog and you know what?

1:28:38 I'm glad I got food poisoning with you.

1:28:40 Dude, yeah, it would have sucked to be get food

1:28:42 poisoning all alone or just the other person have food poisoning.

1:28:45 Well, we had it together.

1:28:46 Yeah, that was pretty funny.

1:28:47 We were just nursing each other and we built ourselves a little stronger.

1:28:51 No.

1:28:52 I just know I was with you and we were safe.

1:29:00 Wow, straight to Shanghai.

1:29:02 Look at that.

1:29:03 That's awesome.

1:29:03 I think we remember seeing a sign of Shanghai and freaking out.

1:29:06 Let's just take it.

1:29:07 Um I guess we're a[ __] unfaithful then.

1:29:09 I guess you and I are just unfaithful people to our love.

1:29:12 Well, I'm sure it connects to her.

1:29:13 I she would understand.

1:29:15 Yeah, she'd probably get it.

1:29:17 We're in difficult circumstances.

1:29:19 Is is my theory right?

1:29:21 I had a theory that odds were up down and evens were left right.

1:29:25 Do you guys know if that's true?

1:29:27 I guess it's not true cuz the 208's up down.

1:29:30 Are twos are 200's up down and 300's left right?

1:29:33 Ooh, are our only prime numbers non-divisible by three?

1:29:37 Do they only go northwest?

1:29:40 Could that be it?

1:29:41 Perhaps he is right.

1:29:42 I don't know.

1:29:44 Oh, the 200 maybe the two Well, actually, what's the 100's?

1:29:47 Ones go to Beijing.

1:29:49 You know how she is.

1:29:50 All 100's go to Beijing.

1:29:52 Wow, what a[ __] sick city, bro.

1:29:54 All 100's go to Beijing.

1:29:55 That's kind of awesome, bro.

1:29:56 That is so cool.

1:29:57 All 100's go to Beijing.

1:29:59 All 200's are north south and 300's are east west.

1:30:02 She gets all freaking out.

1:30:03 I knew there was some[ __] like that.

1:30:04 You You how she gets.

1:30:06 Dude, life is better when it's not raining.

1:30:08 That's true.

1:30:08 It's like the gear warm weather gear actually[ __] works.

1:30:13 So nice.

1:30:14 You're saying it's supposed to clear tomorrow?

1:30:17 Dude, shut the[ __] up.

1:30:20 [laughter]

1:30:20 He's been saying that for 7 days in a row.

1:30:22 I did say that a lot and I was wrong every time.

1:30:26 You got it, Richard.

1:30:27 You're lying.

1:30:28 You're a liar.

1:30:30 I learned to I learned to You're a liar, Richard.

1:30:33 You're a liar, Richard.

1:30:35 sheet Dude, there was a pothole on this road that could have taken us out.

1:30:38 I remember seeing I don't think you saw it.

1:30:40 It was going out of the city.

1:30:41 Sometimes the road like does this and it has like a big bump.

1:30:45 Uh-huh.

1:30:45 And if we would have gone into the other lane,

1:30:47 it just would have freaking cleared us.

1:30:48 We would have just hit it.

1:30:49 __] GG on the trip.

1:30:50 a crazy bump.

1:30:54 Cite your sources.

1:30:55 My brain.

1:30:56 It said sunny and 17.

1:30:58 Okay, I believe you.

1:31:00 That sounds nice.

1:31:02 I'm going to keep going with that hope.

1:31:04 Uh so this is east.

1:31:05 The middle of left, [music] right?

1:31:08 Yeah.

1:31:08 Yeah.

1:31:09 Yeah, this is like actually trying to find your way out of New York.

1:31:11 That sounds nice.

1:31:12 Like Richard pointed out, there's a sign up here and it says Wuhan,

1:31:15 which is the first time we've ever seen it on a sign.

1:31:19 Wuhan is Dude, we were close as hell.

1:31:21 I I didn't realize how far east it is of Aaron Hot.

1:31:24 I thought it was right kind of where we are right now.

1:31:26 Yeah, I would have thought I would have thought maybe more north like here-ish.

1:31:29 asked me, man.

1:31:29 But yeah, that is crazy east.

1:31:32 Before you would just get laughed at for bringing it up.

1:31:34 Yeah.

1:31:35 Yeah, but now it's a place we're actually going to.

1:31:37 Now it's a place that is presumably within reach.

1:31:41 It's like it's close-ish.

1:31:43 Uh we pulled over at a gas station to find some intel off and also get gas.

1:31:49 Yeah.

1:31:50 Yeah.

1:31:52 Yeah.

1:31:54 Why go in?

1:32:00 [laughter] Yes.

1:32:00 Make a right.

1:32:02 Make a right.

1:32:03 woman cheating Yeah, it's fair.

1:32:46 No one tells you this, but the antibodies

1:32:48 from having poop in your system from eating poop,

1:32:53 they actually wipes out most of the Chinese brain cells in your head.

1:32:57 I I my Chinese got so much worse after food poisoning.

1:33:01 It probably took a full 3 days to return to form.

1:33:05 Cuz I think I think there's also just

1:33:07 like a level of exhaustion and it's like yeah,

1:33:10 speak speaking in general is harder and then trying to speak

1:33:13 in a language you barely know is a way harder.

1:33:32 She's being so nice.

1:33:36 No, yeah, she was super nice.

1:33:44 So kind of an interesting dilemma.

1:33:47 Seems like Wuhan is east of us.

1:33:50 Yeah, that's my thought.

1:33:51 My thought is Wuhan is east and we probably don't want to go there.

1:33:54 We nailed this.

1:33:55 Yeah, we were doing good.

1:33:57 actually as[ __] Even in our horrid state, we can still get there.

1:33:59 smart as damn hell.

1:34:00 Yeah, we could do we could probably do Pangea tip-to-tip.

1:34:03 Easy.

1:34:03 We could do Pangea tip-to-tip, yeah.

1:34:04 You know the end of Pangea tip-to-tip?

1:34:06 It's just uh China.

1:34:08 Actually.

1:34:09 Yeah.

1:34:09 Back to China.

1:34:10 Yeah.

1:34:11 All roads lead back to China.

1:34:12 Oh, I don't think it's that bad.

1:34:14 Oh, oh, okay.

1:34:16 I think it's kind of fine if we end up there and we go north from there.

1:34:19 Yeah, I I have no idea where Aaron Hart is, honestly.

1:34:23 Just that it's Yeah.

1:34:25 That actually makes So, she said just take the 318, right?

1:34:31 So, oh, I thought she said left.

1:34:33 Well, no, no, she meant left out of here, yeah.

1:34:35 True.

1:34:36 One day we say that.

1:34:38 Oh, yeah.

1:34:40 Yeah, then we just rip this east route till there's an awesome left turn.

1:34:43 And it's raining.

1:34:44 We're the strongest soldiers, we're brave, brave boys.

1:34:47 We're brave boys, we're brave boys.

1:34:51 Hey Michael, what we just find?

1:34:54 We found a road.

1:34:55 I think I saw that road.

1:34:55 She's 34 and a 432 and a[ __] whatever, it's just a road that goes north.

1:35:01 And it was kind of cool that we We were such shells.

1:35:04 We really suck.

1:35:05 We are such gross shells of ourselves.

1:35:07 We were brave boys, but we're putting brave faces on.

1:35:10 Peace.

1:35:11 But I think we're supposed to go north in this life, in this world.

1:35:15 Dude, we're still so[ __] We're [snorts] still[ __] up,

1:35:18 but we found a road called 324, so we're searching for the 318 to this one.

1:35:22 It's north-southbound.

1:35:24 It's a good road.

1:35:26 And hopefully it's like how all 100s lead to Beijing and it's like, brother,

1:35:30 are we going to really say this doesn't lead like Yeah, right?

1:35:32 You're[ __] there, bro.

1:35:33 Also, isn't that crazy?

1:35:34 It's like, yeah, 100s freaking 200s go north,

1:35:38 300 goes sou- uh[ __] south, and it's like, what about 100s?

1:35:41 They all just go to Beijing.

1:35:42 How about we just make them all go to Beijing?

1:35:45 Amazing.

1:35:45 I guess it's how[ __] was back in the day.

1:35:48 All roads lead to Beijing.

1:35:48 I don't think Beijing was a capital for a while, though.

1:35:52 It was but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but I

1:35:55 forget my Chinese history.

1:35:55 Was that a Qing Dynasty?

1:35:58 Maybe it was earlier.

1:35:59 Definitely wasn't Yuan Dynasty.

1:36:00 I'll tell you what.

1:36:01 it was a Qing Dynasty swap, but maybe I'm wrong.

1:36:05 The 207, but a little more east.

1:36:08 Yeah, but better and stronger and just like slowly banks us.

1:36:11 Ming Dynasty.

1:36:13 maybe it's really goes right to Aaron Hart.

1:36:15 We have a sign coming up with three towns.

1:36:18 I mean, maybe we just try to go to the Yamanote Square.

1:36:25 And then 84 km away.

1:36:28 Yeah, I think that'd be cool if we can make it there.

1:36:30 I don't think this I don't think we're going to be

1:36:33 able to get our normal 200 to 250 km today.

1:36:37 It'd be really cool if we did, honestly.

1:36:39 Oh.

1:36:40 Okay.

1:36:41 Well.

1:36:42 Huh.

1:36:43 It says north now.

1:36:45 Wait.

1:36:47 It looks like we didn't bank[ __] dick or[ __] Look, I see north, I'm happy.

1:36:52 This is what I was calling the Yamanote Square.

1:36:57 Cuz it kind of looks like the symbol for the Yamanote line.

1:37:00 And I think it's That's actually men.

1:37:03 In Chinese, like wo men.

1:37:05 Wo men jie.

1:37:07 All right.

1:37:08 I I want to learn that song, though.

1:37:12 __] [laughter] [crying] Jenda.

1:37:18 Jenda.

1:37:18 We screamed.

1:37:20 We screamed.

1:37:20 It wasn't filmed.

1:37:21 We screamed.

1:37:22 I peed right there.

1:37:22 I peed right under this sign.

1:37:26 If you guys want to collect my piss.

1:37:30 That was a cool maneuver.

1:37:33 I brought some light back in there.

1:37:34 How does this happen?

1:37:36 I don't even understand.

1:37:37 crazy.

1:37:37 So, two really good things happened.

1:37:39 One, you.

1:37:41 That's the sun.

1:37:41 It's out.

1:37:42 usually finds us.

1:37:43 First time we've seen her in a couple days.

1:37:46 What's the other thing, Michael?

1:37:48 We have reached the park path.

1:37:50 What?

1:37:52 We're back on the 207?

1:37:54 You must under- Look how much they intersect.

1:37:58 stand A park path is silly.

1:38:01 We've been on the 348, the 328 for[ __] like 120 km.

1:38:08 And now it's this.

1:38:09 Yeah, we went randomly east and randomly west, kind of north.

1:38:13 And the 207's been like a direct north route,

1:38:16 so to see it, to get back on it is kind of crazy.

1:38:20 That's the um We found 11 km.

1:38:23 we're going to.

1:38:25 I think we should at least eat at.

1:38:28 Maybe we don't stop there for good, but I think it's called start at 2:00 today?

1:38:32 So late.

1:38:32 Jing men.

1:38:33 Yeah, like 12:00 or 1:00.

1:38:34 Jing men.

1:38:35 Jing men.

1:38:36 All right.

1:38:36 I can't believe we're seeing this again.

1:38:38 We I thought I'd never We started at 2:00, yeah.

1:38:40 She's brought us so far.

1:38:43 [music] Yeah, I'm not going to lie, today's That's good progress today.

1:38:49 Today is really hard.

1:38:52 Sometimes life just[ __] kicks you down.

1:38:55 Yeah, you dropped it.

1:38:56 That's how it works.

1:38:57 That's how I would see it.

1:38:57 This is my fault.

1:38:59 I dropped it.

1:38:59 I'm supposed to know that.

1:39:01 I'm supposed to know that.

1:39:01 That's fuck- It's just a hard day today.

1:39:07 This is sad[ __] boy.

1:39:09 Yichang city.

1:39:10 Oh, we reach Yichang, man.

1:39:11 It's okay.

1:39:12 So, option one is the one we've been talking about,

1:39:15 driving down this road that goes to Jingmen and the 207,

1:39:19 and it's only about 10 km away.

1:39:23 So, not too bad.

1:39:24 What could be better than that?

1:39:26 What is the other What is even another option?

1:39:28 That's such a great option to turn around.

1:39:31 It is a It is a wonderful option.

1:39:33 Just pull a U-turn all right here.

1:39:37 And then just read to me what that brown sign says.

1:39:42 Oh,[ __] Yeah, it's a hot spring.

1:39:45 When's When's the When's the When's the When's the spring?

1:39:49 We have no idea how far it is.

1:39:51 We have no info about it.

1:39:52 We just know that to the right there's a hot spring.

1:39:54 Hot spring.

1:39:55 Oh, by the way, it's not to the right.

1:39:56 That's a lie.

1:39:57 This is what I figured out later on, but the way that Chinese road signs work,

1:40:01 although this thing down here, this text right here is to the right,

1:40:05 if it's on the very top, it actually means forward.

1:40:11 It's kind of way to make a sign.

1:40:12 It is very confusing.

1:40:14 It is very confusing, but yeah.

1:40:15 Cuz it does have a like a large amount

1:40:17 of space between the two things in the forward arrow.

1:40:20 Yeah, you would think that you'd want to group it closer together.

1:40:24 Yeah.

1:40:25 But But yeah, this this hot spring is forward, not to the right.

1:40:30 And I think if it's to the right, they might put it below or something.

1:40:32 Hot spring, bro.

1:40:33 Well, we're spoiled for good options today.

1:40:36 Yeah.

1:40:38 And uh that sounds good to me.

1:40:39 Like What if the hot spring is just right here?

1:40:42 Yeah.

1:40:44 And what could be more healing for our injured injured bodies than a hot spring?

1:40:49 That's true.

1:40:49 That's what could get us back.

1:40:50 It would get us so right.

1:40:52 I made a smart play.

1:40:53 I took a picture of it.

1:40:54 So we can ask somebody where to go,

1:40:56 and we can just show them the picture of the hot spring.

1:40:59 Yeah.

1:41:00 We can even pull over at the gas station and ask how far it is.

1:41:27 Are sure going to [laughter] Yeah, I remember this dude.

1:41:32 Cuz I was like What?

1:41:33 I like left the convo, and I I didn't really get the I didn't get it.

1:41:37 I didn't I didn't know how far it was.

1:41:39 Cuz she wasn't like she didn't tell me a certain kilometer away.

1:41:42 So, I was like, "Let me just throw out

1:41:44 a crazy Some crazy number and get a little reaction.

1:41:48 see if she's like, "Yeah, about." Or like, "Way more or way less." Yeah.

1:42:00 And I think I pick it actually kind of worked.

1:42:02 It did.

1:42:02 All right, let's go.

1:42:47 Dude, that is a nice[ __] hot spring.

1:42:50 Oh my god, it's a Garth.

1:42:52 Dude, it actually was a Garth.

1:42:54 I might have just the thought of that if we didn't find this beautiful.

1:42:58 I think this was the best hotel of the trip, right?

1:43:02 I think it's the best hotel we've ever stayed in in tip-to-tip history.

1:43:08 This hotel was crazy.

1:43:09 It was insane.

1:43:10 I think the only one that could maybe come close is the one in in Hakone.

1:43:14 I don't even know if that one was that crazy nice.

1:43:17 That one was a nice facility.

1:43:19 I don't even remember the hot spring at that Oh,

1:43:21 no, that the hot spring at that place was much smaller.

1:43:24 Uh you also didn't go to it, I remember.

1:43:26 I think.

1:43:27 I think I went I think I went once, maybe in the morning.

1:43:29 I I one I went to and I filmed myself butt ass

1:43:32 naked in the hot spring and my penis is in the shot.

1:43:35 Oh, yeah, yeah.

1:43:36 You sent it to me on the way.

1:43:37 And you said rotoscope this on I said rotoscope my penis big.

1:43:40 So, it's the

1:43:41 [laughter] So, it's the only thing in the shot.

1:43:42 I love China.

1:43:43 I love China.

1:43:43 I love China.

1:43:45 Holy dude.

1:43:47 I can't believe Is this what we think I mean right now we think

1:43:50 it's like the most beautiful hot spring

1:43:52 resort that we've ever seen in our lives?

1:43:54 kind of a hard time finding it cuz it

1:43:56 Dude, it's so lucky that this existed because it was not only a hot spring,

1:43:59 but it was maybe maybe 500 m from the 207.

1:44:04 So nice on the road.

1:44:07 Yeah.

1:44:07 It was so nice that we couldn't find it

1:44:09 cuz we thought it was I don't a government building.

1:44:11 drove past it.

1:44:13 It looks like such a beautiful building.

1:44:14 We thought it wasn't even like Yeah,

1:44:17 usually buildings this pretty are like government buildings.

1:44:20 Oh my god, they have restaurants here.

1:44:22 Our first hot spring in the I'm going to cry.

1:44:24 They got a something.

1:44:26 They got a something.

1:44:27 Honestly, I was like let's just[ __] DoorDash it.

1:44:29 Yeah.

1:44:30 other Chinese person that's ever lived.

1:44:31 But if they got a something in the hot spring I'm going to cry.

1:44:36 They will serve food at the hot spring?

1:44:37 Oh my god.

1:44:38 I'm I'm proud of us for going 150 gongli.

1:44:41 __] e-bike.

1:44:43 E-bike gongli's pretty good.

1:44:45 Yeah, it's great.

1:44:46 I mean like Yeah, we only traveled 150 km.

1:44:48 That's less than 100 mi.

1:44:50 So, pretty good.

1:44:52 Pretty good.

1:44:53 Not even that bad.

1:44:54 I mean, I think it's a little under the average we did in Japan,

1:44:58 but it's but it's actually kind of similar.

1:44:59 Yeah, for a day that starts at 2:00 p.m.

1:45:01 What the[ __] We only had to pick up Mike.

1:45:03 We didn't have the fire of God in our eyes.

1:45:06 I I think I don't know how we ended up driving so I

1:45:09 think a lot of it was due to driving like the wrong way.

1:45:13 Like we would make progress the incorrect way and then also

1:45:16 like I think we were a lot more timid in Japan.

1:45:20 Like here we'll rip down a road 50 km not sure if it's the right road.

1:45:26 Yeah.

1:45:27 And in Japan it's like stop everything.

1:45:29 We have to go to 18 different convenience

1:45:33 to make sure that this is the right road.

1:45:36 And I feel like that was a lot of it.

1:45:38 And then also there is traffic in Japan.

1:45:42 Yeah, true.

1:45:43 We almost never ran into traffic here.

1:45:45 Cuz how many days we lost?

1:45:46 Like 10 days?

1:45:47 Maybe like 10 km extra a day.

1:45:51 It's not so bad.

1:45:54 It's like 10 minutes.

1:45:55 This place is insane.

1:45:56 This is the most beautiful hotel I think I've ever seen.

1:45:59 This place is insane.

1:45:59 This is the nicest hotel I've ever seen.

1:46:02 Yeah, maybe me too.

1:46:03 There's no hotels in Japan.

1:46:04 There is, bro.

1:46:05 It's the Ichigo Sand.

1:46:07 Um.

1:46:16 I want night.

1:46:17 You want you want.

1:46:19 I buy one ball.

1:46:21 I know it now.

1:46:22 I know it now.

1:46:24 We will have to learn it for a few more days.

1:46:29 Yeah, we got asked if we need a hot spring bath, which was an instant yes.

1:46:33 Yeah, and we said one night.

1:46:34 Also makes sense why we didn't know what she

1:46:35 was asking cuz we've never heard that be asked.

1:46:37 Dude, E one is one night, no?

1:46:40 E one me fun.

1:46:41 E one is definitely bowl.

1:46:42 I don't know if it's night or one.

1:46:44 One is bowl, but it might also be one or it could be one or it could be one.
