This week the KoK boys have a lot to talk about.  Greg is on the Whiskey and Nick starts by yet again trying to psyche Jay out of messing up the intro.  Greg tries to convince everyone he doesn’t use English at work anymore, which was believable considering he could barely string a sentence together.  We discuss the fallout from the Rob_in_Japan interview followed up by our main topic: Zach Phoenyx.

Zach falls in to a category of common YouTuber visual tropes but also manages to cross the best (worst?) of them.  The pubic hair beard of Gaijin Goomba, the Rayban and backwards cap of Totally Drew, the unacknowledged trust fund of Chris Okano, and the laziness of TkyoSam.

We address some of the criticism of our previous episode, and despite the whiskey, Greg coherently and diligently points out our defense of Miss S. Potato. Taking inspiration from another JVlogger with experience being accused of inappropriate sexual opinions, we set this defense to some jazz piano to lighten the mood.

Jay stumbles through the Simon and Martina drama.  Our new favorite Canadians with shared cat custody had a whirlwind romance and whirlwind divorce with their fans threatening each creator separately for a myriad of reasons.  Martina, like a normal and well adjusted person, decided to move back to Japan!  Don't worry, Martina, your love of weeb shit will turn you into a glorious daughter of Nihon with no issues whatsoever like so many before you.

We end with a hilarious recounting of the New York Times recognized and official podcast of Japan (by Americans): The conbini boys!  What wonderful food did they discover? by "they" I mean the one who still lives here.  The other one just laughs like he microdoses mushrooms.

We end the show by questioning our life decisions. Again.
