[clears throat]

Good morning, Vietnam.

Only the boomers will get that joke. Did

you know that in Vietnam they don't call

it the Vietnam War? They call it the

American War. It makes sense, right?

Like why would they call it the Vietnam

War when Americans just came over here

and just started dropping bombs on them?

And it really says a lot about how the

narrative of history is so subjective

and history is written by the winners.

Well, in this case, I guess the United

States lost, but you know what I mean.

But dude, growing up in the United

States as a kid and watching like Rambo

too when John Rambo was over in Vietnam

with his machine gun just mowing down

Vietnamese people like

and they were just like

like that [ __ ] always annoyed me because

it's like why were the Asians always

these faceless insects and like John

Rambo was like the only human in the

movie? Like that [ __ ] was kind of

racist, bro. Um, not going to lie, it it

it made me it it made me feel less than.

And uh, I never really gave it much

thought until later in my life. And uh,

even the girl, right, the pretty love

interest to Rambo, like she was hot. So

I looked her up and I was like, of

course she was half white, half Chinese.

She wasn't even Vietnamese. Like why

can't they cast a Vietnamese person for

that role? So yeah, you know, white

people, you need to do better. No, just

kidding. Just kidding. I'm not a woke

person. Um, that was the '8s, so I

totally get it, man. Um, yeah, she was

hot. And, um, I would like to see more

Asian representation in the media. This

is my entrance. And, you know, that's

the the bathroom.

And um it's it's a bit messy, but try to

understand that all this clothing is

clean. You know, I have a washer and

dryer right there, so I use it all the

time. This is clutch if you're a nomad.

You know, you need to have find places

with washer and dryers. I always make

sure to have that. Um I recorded one of

my videos there cuz I'm lazy. This is

clutch. This clothes is clean, by the

way, the clothes on the floor. It's just

that I leave my clothes on the floor

because it's like organized chaos. You

know what I mean? for people who want to

call in on the Calendarly. I take video

calls there. Uh this is where the magic

happens. So yeah, that's the crib, bro.

Going to meet up with my buddy Chris.

We're going to hang out. He's visiting

for the weekend. See what happens.

Kind of a weird setup.

Yeah, it's kind of a weird setup. In

Vietnam, a lot of uh a lot of places are

inside. Like my place is in a nail shop

basically. But I'm going to take a

motorcycle, which is common here cuz

it's like it weaves through traffic

better. So I try to wear a mask for

that. It's like common cuz pollution and

stuff.

Sorry. Yeah.

So that was that was my uh driver there.

So that's like a electric vehicle

scooter. Um, Vietnam is making this big

push to convert all of their uh taxi

scooters and taxi cars to EVs

uh to basically reduce pollution cuz

Vietnamese cities like Hanoi and uh Ho

Chi Min City are like some of the most

polluted cities. So I think they were

they're trying to make that happen by

next year, which is which is amazing.

You know, some people think it's like a

little fruity to be sitting behind

another dude like that, but I don't

really mind, you know, as long as I'm

the big spoon, right?

Cool.

Water bus. I didn't notice this ever.

Those floors must be pretty cool to hang

out on. Should I record a video here,

guys?

[music]

Shame away.

Call us Anthony. I call her Anthony.

[music]

[music]

>> [music]

>> All right,

went to 7-Eleven to get some uh drunk

snacks.

Crucial

late in the morning. These 24/7

7-Elevens are so clutch, bro. It's also

just awesome how it's completely safe at

like 3:00 or 4:00 a.m. Even

in like a country like Vietnam, which

has a much lower GDP per capita than

most of the West,

it's way safer. So for sure like Vietnam

is

is definitely the front runner for my

home base because I like that like

you know such a peaceful safe society

and it's so affordable.

Check out where I'm staying. It looks

kind of sketch. Like I didn't say they

don't do graffiti but I got this gate

lock.

It's a nail bar.

And then,

you know, the gate closes behind me. And

then, I guess this is where people leave

their motorcycles.

[sighs] And there's my home.

Home sweet home.
