David Dobrik
What's up guys? Welcome back to Views. We are back still in Bangkok. The trip continues. This is the pot. Continue. This is a new day. We've now been here three days. Ilya, do you want to fill us in on how those three days went?
Ilya Fedorovich
Well, I've only actually been here two days.
David Dobrik
Yeah. So what he means by this. Bear with us here. We had. And everyone chime in on this because this is quite. This is quite spectacle of a night we had. Like I've always said this. I've said this on the pod before. I'm bad at vacationing because I only see the nighttime. I have taken it to a new level of ruining my vacation. We went out drinking. What was it, Friday night? Yeah, we went out drinking Friday night. We stayed up till about. We started drinking at like 9pm Friday night, which is the problem. I can't pre game. I've always said this, but we were with some new guests, new friends, so I wanted to impress them. So I started drinking and then got really drunk around 5, 6am Well, I got drunk at 11pm I was gonna.
Natalie Mariduena
Say you were blackout by literally 11:30.
David Dobrik
Yes.
Jason Nash
How many beers did you have?
Natalie Mariduena
Two hours.
David Dobrik
I don't drink a lot.
Jason Nash
Okay.
David Dobrik
Normally.
Jason Nash
I see.
Natalie Mariduena
So that's why I was confused. I only saw him have like maybe six, seven beers throughout, like the whole night.
David Dobrik
Did you get roofied? I think I got alcohol poisoning from five beers. Did I get roofied? No, I didn't. I was with my drinks all night. Yeah, I mean, I don't think I would know.
Jason Nash
Okay.
David Dobrik
But anyway, so. Yeah. And then around 8am Long story short, this is what I'm trying to get to. Passed out at 8am was throwing up for the next seven hours. Natalie called me, called the hotel to call me. Yeah.
Natalie Mariduena
I couldn't get a hold of you for many hours.
David Dobrik
Yeah.
Natalie Mariduena
And I was like, well, we should maybe just really try to get a hold of him in case he's not.
David Dobrik
Not okay. Yeah. So. So my phone rang at 5pm that Saturday. The next day, it's already 5pm I'm still sleeping.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
I pick up, I tell Natalie I'm alive, immediately go to bed because I can't stand because I'm so dizzy. And then the next time I wake up is 6am the next day. And Ilia, same situation with you.
Ilya Fedorovich
Yeah. So basically, in summary, we went to bed or we went out Friday night, but we didn't end up getting up.
David Dobrik
Until Sunday morning, which is horrible. Which is actually very Bangkok appropriate if you've seen Hangover.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
It very much felt like it. Like it was.
Ilya Fedorovich
It. It felt like we erased an entire day.
David Dobrik
Like a time capsule, coma, whatever you want to call it, it was. It's wild. It's really crazy.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
And not in like a fun way. And like a damn. We lost. We lost our Saturday night.
Natalie Mariduena
Yeah.
David Dobrik
I don't know.
Ilya Fedorovich
I haven't slept this well. And I'm not kidding, like, two years. I slept for 18 hours, Jay. 18 hours.
Jason Nash
I'm not kidding.
Ilya Fedorovich
That's not an exaggeration, which is really good.
David Dobrik
You had like a day yesterday. You went out and did things.
Jason Nash
Yeah. When Naveen and I woke up around 8aM as you guys were coming in, and we went to a floating cafe and we joined the.
David Dobrik
Wait before we get into you. And Naveen heard things didn't start off on the right foot. This morning.
Jason Nash
I woke up in a bad mood. And then. So what happens is I wake up in a bad mood.
David Dobrik
I like when Jason gets real. Because we were like, he was setting up the pod. Naveen is here too. His wife. And he was setting up the pod equipment. And he's like, I just gotta be softer with Naveen.
Jason Nash
That's not what I said. No, you said that was the sentiment.
David Dobrik
Yeah. Yeah.
Jason Nash
That was the words I used.
David Dobrik
I changed it to make the sentiment more clear. But what you. What you said was, I have to be more careful with Naveen. Yes, that's what you said.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
But it's really funny because it was just like, you could tell that he really wanted to talk about it. And that was the perfect time when he was just, like, fumbling with the podcast equipment and then we were like, oh, what happened? So Naveen, through you.
Jason Nash
Oh, let me pretend to care.
David Dobrik
No, I love this type of stuff. This is this is the real life drama. What's going on, Naveen?
Naveen
So, not really drama at all. But, like, so I woke up, like, really early. I have, like, a little bit of jet lag. And he, like, looks at me. He's like, why are you awake? And I was like, oh, I just can't sleep. And so he goes, well, go back to sleep. Like, what do you mean? Like, how are you awake? I was like, okay. So I stayed up. Then we went to breakfast, and we sit down at breakfast and he's like, man, we're going home in a couple of days. That's good. And I was like, I could stay for, like, another two weeks. Like, I'm like, I can vacation for so long, but I think some people.
David Dobrik
Just like, no, jk, vacation for a while.
Jason Nash
Yeah, I just woke up in a bad mood. And then. Then she's like, but you also said.
David Dobrik
It wasn't your fault when you were telling us.
Jason Nash
I said it's not my fault.
David Dobrik
You literally said those exact words.
Jason Nash
I did not.
David Dobrik
When? Right when you said that. That's when I was like, oh, this is amazing. Hold it, because I want to talk about on the pod.
Jason Nash
I go. I go, it's not my fault.
David Dobrik
Do you remember I said it was my fault? Yeah. No, no, you said, it's not my fault. That's what you said. I'm not even kidding. That was the exact moment where I was like, please bring Naveen down for this pod. I can't imagine when you could so confidently be not your fault about that. She'll be like, yeah, it really wasn't his fault.
Jason Nash
No, I was. I was thinking the. I don't. It might have came out of my mouth, but what I was thinking was I got to. When I'm in a. If I wake up in a bad mood, it just transfers over to her. And then she thinks that I'm mad at her, but I'm just mad at myself. I just hate myself. That's all it is.
David Dobrik
That is how you. That is like your. That is how you travel, though. Isn't that how Jason is?
Natalie Mariduena
Well, you know, it was funny yesterday. I don't even know if this was, like, if we talked about this on the last pod, but Jason, like, actually finally admitted he was like, I really don't know how to relax. Like, he just, like, can't take a beat and just, like, take a deep breath and be like, oh, I'm in Thailand. I'm on vacation with my fucking amazingly beautiful, hot, gorgeous wife.
David Dobrik
Wait, what did he. What was his he, like, used a word. Was it to relax or was it, like. It was, like, jittery or something? You did reveal something about yourself that we've all known.
Jason Nash
I said it while I was setting the podcast up. It wasn't on the podcast, but I said it right before.
David Dobrik
All things come out of your mouth when you're setting up the podcast.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
That's the only moment you have self realizations when you're recording the audio equipment. Damn. Okay. Right? Yeah. Because you don't like to relax. And I say this about Jay a lot. Like, we'll be. We'll be doing whatever. Like, we'll be in Santa Barbara on a beach chair, and he'll be like, isn't this amazing? And then I'll be like. In my head, I'll just like. I'll be like, he's fucking full of shit. Like, I don't know. Like, I don't even know if he's saying it because he thinks it or just. He knows. He knows. Like, his brain, like, computes, like, water, beach, friends. Amazing. Tell him. Tell him.
Jason Nash
Tell all your friends.
David Dobrik
Like, that's. That's how he thinks. He's not. He's not. Cause. Cause I know, because 10 minutes later, he'll be like, I gotta go check on Charlie. I got, like, 10 minutes. 10 minutes. He'll get some kind of bug of stress, and that's how he operates everywhere. So, like, I don't know. So I don't. I don't think he likes doing the relaxing things as much as he does.
Jason Nash
Do me in an earthquake.
Naveen
And. Well, when there was an earthquake in la, I'm, like, sleeping next to him and Charlie's in. In her room, and I'm like, oh. I think he's like, there's an earthquake. And I was like, yeah, I felt it. And I'm like, just relaxing. He goes, earthquake. He goes, charlie.
David Dobrik
Oh, he, like, processed it like it was a movie.
Naveen
Jumped out of bed and was just, like, screaming her name, like, running down the hall for her. But it's like it already passed. It was like a second.
David Dobrik
It's like a 2.3 magnitude earthquake.
Naveen
Oh, my God.
David Dobrik
Did it knock anything off the shelves?
Naveen
No, it was like a gentle, like, push.
David Dobrik
That's really cool.
Naveen
Or like, he'll, like, wake up and he'll. I'll be like, hey, is something wrong? And he's like, no. And then he goes in, like, the next room, but I can still, like, hear him. And I'll be like, oh, my God. And I'm like, are you good? And he's like, I'm just talking to myself. Like, that's normal. Like, people can just talk to themselves. And I'm like, oh, cool.
David Dobrik
Okay. That's really fun. Yeah. So. So, J.C. we all know this about it. Yeah.
Naveen
I guess it's not your fault.
Jason Nash
No, it is. Yeah, it's my fault.
David Dobrik
This hotel, I. I also have to say, is incredible. They did. Did you. You guys saw what Jason said. He didn't care that they did this, but I think he was kidding. What they did for me this morning was I travel with my own blanket. Like, my own duvet. I put it in a car. I put it in a checked bag. In my second check bag is my pillow and my blanket from my bed. So everything feels like my home when I'm here. And they noticed. The hotel noticed that there were two buttons broken on the blanket. And I got back with a note on my bed, and it had the. And it said, we noticed your blanket was broken, so we fixed it, and they put the buttons back on the blanket. That's fucking incredible.
Jason Nash
We saw the podcast was not uploaded yet, so we created one.
David Dobrik
Yeah.
Jason Nash
And it's live.
David Dobrik
Oh, my God. That'd be amazing. Yeah. Like, another hotel I stayed at in Hong Kong. This seems to be an Asian. Asian country trend. When I was in Hong Kong, I would bring my pillow everywhere. And they said, we noticed you had a pillow, so we want. We bought you a pillowcase so, like, you can. You can travel with it. Like a pillow holder for the airport.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
And that was the first time I ever had a pillow holder. And it changed my life because I used to put it in garbage bags.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
So every time I come to Asia, I'm very, very, like, taken care of by these people. This is. This is crazy. But I was telling Natalie, do you think this hotel is, like, too nice?
Jason Nash
What? Like, what do you mean?
David Dobrik
Like, they all say hello.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
What do you think about that?
Ilya Fedorovich
Well, I will say, like, the staff to guest ratio is, like, 8 to 1.
Jason Nash
I'm not joking when I say that.
Ilya Fedorovich
And, like, they. Like, we were at breakfast, and they walked up to us, like, this is gonna sound so bad.
David Dobrik
I know. I know.
Ilya Fedorovich
But, like, I don't know. I just. In my head, I'm like, if my mom did that, I'd be pissed off, too.
Jason Nash
No, no, no.
Ilya Fedorovich
Like, and they just walk up to you too many times. You're like, I get it.
Jason Nash
Like, I'm good. I'm good.
David Dobrik
It's not that. It's. You go to the walk to dinner.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
And you encounter at least 14 staff members, and they all stop what they're doing, turn to you, and they bow.
Ilya Fedorovich
I think that's a cultural thing.
David Dobrik
I know, but it's like, it almost makes me not want to walk around because I'm like, just do. Just do your thing.
Jason Nash
I saw one guy. I started walking the hallway, and he was coming around a corner, and he basically just turned around.
David Dobrik
No, because he, like, stuttered. He was like, no.
Jason Nash
Like, they'll see stops in your tracks. I'm like, the hallway is huge. We both can walk.
David Dobrik
No, no, but it's not like that. Like. Like, they'll see you waiting for the elevator, and they'll be like, fuck it. I'm going to take the stairs.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
Like, it's like they want to give you so much. Like, it's so tranquil, but it just feels too. Like, I feel bad.
Jason Nash
You really want to fuck them up? Try to do.
David Dobrik
If you thought you said you want to fuck them all.
Jason Nash
No, if you really want to fuck them up, try to do their job. While something's happening, they flip. They're like, oh, oh, really? Like, they brought in room service last night, and I decided to help put some of the things from the cart onto the dining room table.
David Dobrik
She was like, don't do that.
Jason Nash
She was like, oh, no, no, no, no, no, no.
David Dobrik
I ordered. I ordered Diet Pepsi.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
The other day, and I noticed it was taking longer. And then I saw other waitresses walking around with Diet Cokes. And in my head, I'm like, oh, my God, I just ordered a Pepsi when they only have Coke products. And now this woman is probably on the most insane hunt for a Diet Pepsi, even though they don't have medicinal towel. That's why she's been gone for an additional three minutes, because she's going down to the next nearest hotel.
Jason Nash
She's on the back of a scooter. She's on a boat.
David Dobrik
I got to find this guy.
Jason Nash
She goes to Taiwan on a plane.
David Dobrik
They don't have them in this country, but we'll get you the Pepsi, sir. So, like, yeah, you do have to be a little bit more. You have to be a little bit more careful. And like, when I was. When I was going to breakfast today, like, first. Like, the first three people are like, hi, David. Good morning. And then the last one was like, hey, David, your friends are all sitting here waiting for you. It was like, fucking. How do you know this about me? How do you know they're here waiting for me? When I walked in fucking crazy. I'm talking about this, like, it's all a negative thing, but it's. It's all really incredible. I'm blown away by it.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
I. Very much. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. What?
Natalie Mariduena
Well, when I walked into breakfast, too, I was. I was just gonna walk straight to you guys. I knew you guys were sitting in there. And she, like, came to get me. She was like, Mrs. Natalie. And then I was like, oh, I'm just meeting friends or whatever, and she was like, oh, I know, I know. And she brought me, like, right to you. Like, I was like, the fact that she just knows that we're all here together.
Ilya Fedorovich
Staff members pick Natalie up and carried her over.
David Dobrik
Let's not touch the floo. Hey, was that one of those squeals that people always talk about? People always say, can Jason stop squealing?
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
I never know which one it is, but I think I just caught it. Was that it? Yeah.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
Oh, really?
Jason Nash
It wasn't that high. There's been better ones.
Natalie Mariduena
Yeah.
David Dobrik
No, but people say it's really loud. Does it come loud through the mic? Jason's the only one. Jason's the only one that wears the headphones while we pod. So we don't actually know what the squeals sound like. But I do hear your feedback.
Jason Nash
You could easily pick up an episode and take a listen.
David Dobrik
I can't do that for once. I'm terrified of listening to these things.
Jason Nash
They're not bad.
David Dobrik
If I hear. No, I don't think they're bad. I just have, like, such. I have such a mindset of how they are.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
Before they go out.
Jason Nash
Yeah. I mean, you're here when we do them.
David Dobrik
I know, but sometimes, like, the last couple, we've kind of shot, like, in a straight go. But sometimes we'll record a podcast for an hour and a half.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
And I'll be. And I'll have no idea what was used, and I just, like, would rather not want to know.
Ilya Fedorovich
Who decides that?
David Dobrik
Jason. And then Natalie decides if Jason made the right decision. Yeah.
Jason Nash
And for the record, when the podcast is late, guys, it's not my fault the comments read, you old fuck. It's about time. You don't know how to edit. God damn it, Jason. You fucked this up.
David Dobrik
That's really funny.
Jason Nash
There's a process. I edit it, then Natalie has to listen to it. Natalie's working on lots of things.
David Dobrik
Yeah, right?
Jason Nash
She can't always listen to it right away.
David Dobrik
No.
Natalie Mariduena
I just feel like that's just, like, a trend for people to just pick on you sometimes.
David Dobrik
Yeah. I don't think you should take it. So you take things very personally. I called Jason, an old fuck on the phone the other day. Oh, yeah. And he. Jonah. Okay. And. And Jay wouldn't let it go, really, for like, two weeks, bro. Jay was. And I was like. I was like. And I've seen this. I've seen this happen in person. We joke around with you all the time. And I think you know every time we're joking.
Jason Nash
Yes, I do.
David Dobrik
But, like, then there'll be like a random person.
Jason Nash
Except when I'm crying.
David Dobrik
They'Ll be like a random person on the street that'll hit you with, like, an old fuck or something. And. And you'll just. You won't be able to take it like a joke. You'll just be like. You'll be like, oh, okay, yeah, that's.
Jason Nash
Bipolar J. Oh, really? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
David Dobrik
Okay.
Jason Nash
That's. That's like my brain is.
David Dobrik
I don't know who to feel bad for. Do I feel bad for Jay for being called the old fucky, or do I feel bad for this kid who, like, really wanted to, like, bounce back and forth with Jason. Jason just is, like, stuck. But. Yeah.
Jason Nash
Do any people do that to you?
Ilya Fedorovich
Ever call me an old fuck?
David Dobrik
No, not an old fuck. Do they call you, like, something that. Like a joke from the video? Like, do they probably say stuff about your height? Because I make a lot of jokes.
Ilya Fedorovich
No, actually, contrary to popular belief, everyone always goes, wow, you're a lot taller than David says.
David Dobrik
Really?
Jason Nash
It was so psyched at the club the other night because he walked up to me, he's like, yo, I'm the tallest guy here.
David Dobrik
I said that?
Jason Nash
Yeah, well, you said something else too.
David Dobrik
Ilya's really thriving in Bangkok.
Jason Nash
He said he came out of the.
David Dobrik
Urinal, he's like, no, no, I said.
Ilya Fedorovich
There'S a lot of tall dudes.
Jason Nash
Oh, no.
Ilya Fedorovich
I said, I have the biggest dick in the.
David Dobrik
Yeah. Urinal. Oh, Cuz the urinals were close. Yeah. You couldn't not see other people's dicks.
Ilya Fedorovich
Yeah, I saw them.
David Dobrik
I remember. I remember being there. Yeah. It was insane. I don't know why they do that. And the. The. The one in the Taiwan airport.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
Had glass. Had. Had a mirrored glass right where the urinal is. So you saw the reflection of your own dick, which I hate seeing. I'd rather see other people dicks than my own dick in a reflection. And you see everybody's reflection from the side reflection.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
So you're just fucking it's a straight dick show.
Jason Nash
People like dicks. You know, I used to think dicks are really ugly, but I've been trying.
David Dobrik
To come around to it.
Jason Nash
Yeah, people. There are people that right?
Ilya Fedorovich
Okay.
Naveen
What is it gorgeous?
David Dobrik
Yeah.
Jason Nash
Well, Naveen's made me change my thoughts on dicks.
David Dobrik
Really? Like other people's?
Jason Nash
Well, like, no, just my own. I think my whole life I've been like, so gross. Balls are so gross. Yes. Yeah. Why do you. You've asked me that a few times, dog.
David Dobrik
He loves knowing. Dude, if there's one guy that loves D, it's fucking Ilia.
Natalie Mariduena
Swear to God.
Jason Nash
You asked me that. Like three podcasts.
David Dobrik
Were you with. Were you with me on the pod when I said that you made it? That you made us ask to see your dick in the hot tub for like four months straight? I think I said this when you weren't around. Yeah, but you love talking about your penis.
Ilya Fedorovich
No, I actually don't talk about.
David Dobrik
Not anymore. Because we all saw it and you got to prove to us that it's the best penis out of the friend group.
Jason Nash
Yeah, he wanted to show his dick in the hot tub.
David Dobrik
He's like, wasn't it?
Ilya Fedorovich
But do you ever watch. May have asked this question before, but are you ever like watching a porn video? And no matter how.
David Dobrik
God, dude, you say this all the time.
Ilya Fedorovich
No matter how hot the girl is, I will click off the video if the dick is not nice.
David Dobrik
He says this all the time.
Jason Nash
I kidding. What's nice to you? Like a big tin can? Like a can? Like a.
Ilya Fedorovich
No, like, like long. Just like a nice looking dick that's like. Yeah, kind of big.
David Dobrik
I don't know.
Jason Nash
Sure. If you see a porno on the small dick, you click off. Okay, good. I'm with you.
David Dobrik
All right, no more.
Jason Nash
That's. I can do this.
David Dobrik
Jay, can I tell you real quick about Mood, please? Well, we think at Mood. Yeah, I'm speaking as. I'm as I work at the work at Mood now. Yeah.

Did you see the new big dilemma that is going around? It's the Usain Bolt vers Joey Chestnut theory.
Jason Nash
No.
David Dobrik
Or question. Have you seen this? No. Oh, it's amazing. So you know who Joey Chestnut is?
Jason Nash
Hot dog eater.
David Dobrik
Competitor eater. Can you eat a hot dog in like, I don't know how fast? Do you know how fast? Very fast. I could basically liquefy this hot dog. Who would win in a hundred meter race where they both also have to eat a hot dog? Usain Bolt or Joey Chestnut?
Ilya Fedorovich
What do you mean?
Jason Nash
Eat it first and then run or eat while running?
David Dobrik
Eat it first and then run. Usain Bolt.
Ilya Fedorovich
What are you on crack?
David Dobrik
But.
Natalie Mariduena
But Joey Chestnut would have a head start.
David Dobrik
That's crazy that you guys have this argument because I thought it was very clear that it was the other. Okay, let me.
Jason Nash
Okay, you're saying like start and then Joey chest is like. Then Usain bolts. So Joey chest, that's already like 40 meters ahead and now Usain Bolt comes in.
Ilya Fedorovich
Yeah, well, it depends. I think it's. It depends on how quickly this Chestnut guy can run. Like if he runs a 15 second.
David Dobrik
No, I think the race is decided within the hot dog portion.
Jason Nash
Interesting.
David Dobrik
Yeah, 100%. I mean this. No questions asked.
Ilya Fedorovich
No. Because if it takes an additional four.
David Dobrik
Seconds for what's a regular Usain Bull or what's a regular 100 meter time.
Ilya Fedorovich
Like for a regular person high schooler, 13 seconds.
David Dobrik
Okay. For Usain Bolt, eight seconds.
Ilya Fedorovich
9.8, 9.8, 9.65, 9.63.
Natalie Mariduena
Are you making this up or, you know, there's 9.58.
David Dobrik
Okay, okay, so let me fact check. Nine point. No, no, don't fact check it. 9.58, whatever. Yeah, so that's. Yeah, it's going to take Usain bolt more than 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 seconds to finish a hot dog. Dog. Joey Chestnut clears like finish, like in your mouth. In your mouth. Open your mouth. Dog gone. It's not like you put it in and you run within. You're chewing your. Wow.

David Dobrik
Went to zoo the other day.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
Can we just all openly talk? This may be controversial.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
So Peter, if you're listening, put your earmuffs on.
Jason Nash
No, they should listen, right? You're not gonna want to hear what.
Ilya Fedorovich
I have to say about the zoos.
David Dobrik
Well, actually, I don't know. I don't know actually know where I lean with zoos. I'm so 50. 50 on zoos.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
I see both sides. Like, I'll go, I feel, I feel like it's also like I'm animalist. So I'll see some animals and I'll be like, yeah, cage them up. But then I'll see others. I'm like, whoa, why the are you here? Yeah, like I'll see pelicans and shit. And I'll be like, there's a lot of them.
Jason Nash
Yeah. Or you see what, you see some animals at the zoo and you're like, these guys look happy. Yeah. Having the best.
David Dobrik
And then you'll see an elephant or an orangutan and you'll be like, what the fuck are you doing here?
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
So like. So okay, so here's my hot take on zoo. This isn't hot. This is hot. Can you guys tell me what you think about just so I can fall into place?
Natalie Mariduena
I think, I think it depends on the zoo. I think there's some zoos that are actually like a sanctuary and doing like rehab and stuff. And there's others that are just pure entertainment.
David Dobrik
Well, I would hope that all zoos are doing re. I thought that, I thought that was just like a zoo thing in theory, but not really. Well, that. Well, that's why I'm saying, like, don't all zoos claim that they're doing. Yes, yes. Okay.
Natalie Mariduena
But that's the issue.
David Dobrik
It's like, are you just making things up? Like, is that.
Natalie Mariduena
I think that's part of the issue is like some of them are Not.
David Dobrik
Okay, so why I think, really big zoo person. Well, why I think zoos are important is because it's like to have a kid come in and to, like, be inspired by that. Like, to see an animal either in distress or just to see an animal in general and to fall in love with that animal in person is so important to people that will make a difference with animals later. Like, there's not a lot of places that you can affordably, like, see animals in person. Right. Like, unless you're going, like, to safari.
Jason Nash
And what's the value in that? What's the value in looking at a gorilla or giraffe?
David Dobrik
Well, you may see one gorilla locked up, one kid may see a gorilla that's locked up, and then he saves a whole species later.
Jason Nash
Oh, I thought you meant from, like, a learning perspective.
David Dobrik
No, no, I'm saying. Yeah, I'm saying he, like, he falls in love with this creature because he gets to see it in person. And in return, we get a Steve Irwin or. In return. Do you know what I mean?
Natalie Mariduena
I mean, I wanted to be a marine biologist for the longest time just because of, like, the dolphin show at the zoo, you know?
David Dobrik
Right.
Jason Nash
Okay. And how would you. How would you save the dolphins by becoming a marine biologist other than storming it. Storming SeaWorld with this machine gun?
Natalie Mariduena
Well, I'd just be out there in the field on my bow, like, interacting, playing with them.
Ilya Fedorovich
Always goes to vacation, like, all, like, I'll just be on the boat with my girl.
David Dobrik
Whatever job she has that has to be on a boat. Okay, so what was I saying at the zoo yesterday?
Jason Nash
You were saying, you're just walking and you're like, what if. What if they caught us? What if, like, the animals caught humans? What would our zoo look like? Would we be in a house? Yeah, like, that's.
David Dobrik
I was curious because, like, obviously every little habitat is made like, like, where the animals from. Right. So you'll have the camels. It looks like a desert. The penguins. There's some ice water for the walrus.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
So for a human, would it be like, a house? In a pool? Would it be a townhouse? An apartment?
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
Infinity pool. Like what? Like, whatever. Whatever alien. A club. If they capture me with five beers on the side and some hangover pills in Advil. No, but, like, yeah. What would it be for us? And then I was like, what if Earth is the zoo? You know what I mean?
Jason Nash
What if we're being held captive? Yeah.
David Dobrik
What if we're. What if we're already being watched like a Bunch of zoo animals. I know it was a little deep, but. But you know what I'm saying about the house thing. Yeah, yeah, Listen, I'm battling a hangover right now, man. Try my best.
Ilya Fedorovich
You guys should put educational as your category.
David Dobrik
Well, I'm trying. That's what you don't realize that I'm trying to get more educational because I want people to. I want people to go to work and be like, you know what I learned on the Views podcast? That we. That Earth is a zoo.
Ilya Fedorovich
Yeah.
David Dobrik
And I want people. I want. I want things to strike. Conversation.
Ilya Fedorovich
You want their. You want employees to get job promotions by sharing your facts.
David Dobrik
Yeah.
Ilya Fedorovich
Nice. Yeah, I can see that.
David Dobrik
Anybody want to see my penis? We went to the red light district. I think that's what they call it here.
Natalie Mariduena
Ladies of the night.
David Dobrik
Ladies of the night. Yes. There's more. And a lot of them are lady boys. That's like the thing here in Thailand. So you walk down the street, it's like an alleyway.
Natalie Mariduena
Jay, you weren't there.
Jason Nash
No, no. Oh, shit.
David Dobrik
Oh, Jay, you weren't there. Oh, it was me, Natalie, Ilya and Faris. Right? That's who it was. Oh, Faris wasn't there either, if his girlfriend's listening. Okay. So basically, you walk down this road. It's not as glamorous as you would think it is.
Natalie Mariduena
Yeah, nobody thought it was glamorous.
David Dobrik
Okay. It was. Yeah, you're right. It felt like you were outside of the pyramids and people were like, come on, camel ride. Camel ride right here. It's like. It's like that. Like, they're. Everybody's, like, hassling you, pulling at you, grabbing your thigh and like. Like, really. It's like all the girls are really attacking you.
Ilya Fedorovich
I mean, that's what Ferris calls a. Thailand.
David Dobrik
Thailand. Yeah. Ferris calls Thailand Thailand. But yeah. So it's really intense. And then they bring you to a seat, they bring you into a club. There's more workers than there are people.
Natalie Mariduena
And it's not even like, bring. It's like they drag you. They take you in the street and drag you.
David Dobrik
They drag you into the club. There's like. Yes. So there's at least 30 girls standing outside each club.
Ilya Fedorovich
You know, they had rooms upstairs to go to.
David Dobrik
Yeah, yeah.
Ilya Fedorovich
I didn't ask. They told me so.
Jason Nash
The prostitutes were beautiful and very happy, Right?
Ilya Fedorovich
The prettiest girls ever, jay.
Jason Nash
Oh, good.
Ilya Fedorovich
10 out of 10.
David Dobrik
But they were really pretty girls, so it does get confused. I was also 19 beers deep at this time.
Natalie Mariduena
I think David had A different experience.
David Dobrik
Than the rest of us. Natalie was trying to fucking make out with me on the Tuk Tuk ride. After. After the lady. After we left the. The. The. The. The district. We left kind of quick. Yeah, it was.
Ilya Fedorovich
That's where they filmed the Hangover.
David Dobrik
On that street. Yeah, I think that is the street. Yeah, but yeah, it doesn't really.
Jason Nash
Were you able to tell. I want to hear about Natalie, but were you able to tell the difference between a lady boy and.
David Dobrik
I think Natalie's a girl.
Jason Nash
That's what I was asking.
David Dobrik
I just said, you want to hear about Natalie?
Jason Nash
Embarrassed. Natalie.
David Dobrik
Oh, do you want to hear from Natalie?
Jason Nash
No, no. I was saying I want to hear how she tried to make out with you. But I was saying, were you able to tell the difference between a lady boy and a lady.
David Dobrik
No.
Jason Nash
Oh, yeah.
David Dobrik
No, no, really, it's not like that. Really. I don't know if it's appropriate.
Ilya Fedorovich
What the are you saying, dude? It's so. I so clearly evident.
David Dobrik
I don't think so, dude. I don't think so. Yes. I think you're like underestimating, brother.
Ilya Fedorovich
You were not on planet Earth, man. I could see clearly with my eyes who was a lady boy and who was not.
David Dobrik
Okay, let me ask you a question right now. The last two girls that we were dancing with at the club. Lady boys or not?
Ilya Fedorovich
No.
David Dobrik
Surprise, surprise.
Ilya Fedorovich
Dead ass. I don't know, but no, they were.
Jason Nash
Not lady boys, dude.

David Dobrik
We have Zayn hijazi here.
Zayn Hijazi
Hi, everyone.
David Dobrik
How you doing? A very rare moment. We also have Ilya here, but you can't. I mean, you can't see it because we don't do a video pod.
Jason Nash
But taking a photo right now. Yeah.
David Dobrik
He's passed out and the mic is laying on his chest. So if he does feel like he has anything to add, he will add it.
Zayn Hijazi
He'll probably mumble it. He's like half asleep right now.
David Dobrik
We're in Bangkok. Bangkok, best city in the world. I said something. What do you think about Bangkok? I'll let you go. Good. So, yeah, we're very drunk and it's.
Zayn Hijazi
Almost a late night.
David Dobrik
Has it moved up to our number one city?
Zayn Hijazi
I think so. I think number two, it's.
David Dobrik
It's in the top three. 100, no questions asked. Yeah. What they say about Bangkok is 100 true. If you have the opportunity, you better move here immediately. Yeah.
Zayn Hijazi
It's really like, I've made like special moments, special friends and special memories here for sure.
David Dobrik
I mean, there was a moment. We lost Zayn for like a couple hours yesterday.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
And he had the time of his life. He came back. You remember? He was just like, you guys should have come with me at the most. Bangkok experience.
Zayn Hijazi
I really did, bro. We were in this room. It was like I didn't even make sense.
David Dobrik
At what point of the night did we lose you? Like four or five.
Zayn Hijazi
I don't. I. I had no recollection of time when I'm in the city. It's like everything is just like.
David Dobrik
It was very hangover esque.
Zayn Hijazi
Yeah.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
That we lost Zane. It was actually beautiful. It was like, we don't know where Zane's going. And then we had a mutual friend that we just made in Bangkok. His name's Jai. Jai. And. And Jai called one of us and was like, yo, I'm with Zayn. It's really late. Should I keep, like, watching him? And I'm like, jai, go to bed. It's fine.
Zayn Hijazi
Watching him, I. I felt like I was doing great.
David Dobrik
Well, he felt the need to take care of you. But I was like, no. Like, Zayn's a grown man. He can do it like himself. Don't worry. Zayn is also like. When you see him drunk, you're like, is he there? But he's fully in control.
Zayn Hijazi
I'm a mean machine.
David Dobrik
Yes. He's a mean. He's so good at being drunk.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
Where you don't have to. It looks like you should be worried about him, but he can fully get back.
Zayn Hijazi
Yeah, I'm really good, dude. It's crazy because it looks like I'm on the verge of puking every time, and I always look like the verge of passing out. Puking, starting a fight, and I just don't do any of those. I'm the perfect drunk.
David Dobrik
Wait, wait.
Zayn Hijazi
People get scared of me.
David Dobrik
I don't know why. Wait. That is a good question to ask you. Okay. So my first night here in Bangkok. Did we talk about this, Jay? How brutal was. Yeah, like, I was vomiting for, like, seven, eight hours.
Zayn Hijazi
Like, yo, what happened?
David Dobrik
Well, I just. I can't do what you do. I don't have the professionalism.
Zayn Hijazi
It's because you drink beer the whole night. You're not supposed to drink.
David Dobrik
Zane, if I had tequila, I'm telling you, it'd be ten times worse.
Zayn Hijazi
Yeah, but the thing is, tequila. Tequila helps you not drink as much yet. Beer, you have to drink a lot of it.
David Dobrik
You take more shots than I. Than I have because I'm a tank.
Zayn Hijazi
I know how much I need to drink. But if you drink, like, a shot or two, you don't need to drink beer. Like, you're good.
David Dobrik
Like, I know you're like, oh, I need something in my hand. If it, if it's not, just hold my. Oh, my God. But if it's. If it's not. If it's not in my. If it's not in my hand, I feel like I'm not, like, participating. And then if I don't have a beer in my hand, I feel like people can throw shots at me more often. And then I'm. And I'm.
Zayn Hijazi
That makes sense.
David Dobrik
Four, five, six shots. But have you ever had a moment where you're like, have you blacked out? I have.
Zayn Hijazi
I've had my blackout.
David Dobrik
Have you for sure thrown up?
Zayn Hijazi
No, No. I, I, I, I, I have thrown up, but I haven't thrown up in a long time.
David Dobrik
Really?
Jason Nash
You don't throw up?
Zayn Hijazi
Not anymore.
Jason Nash
That's impressive.
Zayn Hijazi
I just don't.
David Dobrik
I.
Zayn Hijazi
Because I, I, I know it doesn't seem like I know my limits, but I do know my limits.
Jason Nash
How many, how much alcohol do you have yesterday in terms of shots?
Zayn Hijazi
You know, I do love talking about this because I feel like I'm very knowledgeable of this, so.
David Dobrik
You are. You're definitely.
Jason Nash
It's like, let's take a guess.
David Dobrik
We have a pro on the show. Here today?
Zayn Hijazi
No, no, I'm like, alcoholism number one.
Jason Nash
Remember this morning? He goes. He goes. He goes. I don't know. You guys saw it.
David Dobrik
You guys left me.
Ilya Fedorovich
He goes.
Jason Nash
There was all these backflips, man. Everyone was doing backflips.
David Dobrik
He kept describing after we left that.
Zayn Hijazi
Everyone was doing backflips and everybody was also sucking boat. Like they were blowing in from balloons. I think it's some sort of drug. I'm not sure.
David Dobrik
But, you know, that's. That was my least favorite part about, like, being like, when we were 18, 19, 20.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
Like, the one drug that I feel like we were on the most whip. It.
Zayn Hijazi
Why did people do that?
David Dobrik
Was whippets whip. It was crazy.
Jason Nash
It's nitrous, right? Right?
David Dobrik
Nitrous.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
Zayn Hijazi
But, dude, it looks like just crackhead like, it. It doesn't look good. It doesn't look like. It doesn't look.
David Dobrik
And what does it do? Like, you basically suck in this nitrous. I did it once that you put in, like a. A CO2 tank.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
Zayn Hijazi
You get like a head high for maybe a few seconds, and then it.
David Dobrik
Squeezes your brain cells and it, like, kills part of your brain. Yes, it's terrible. It's really, really bad for you. But people. When people talk about it, they describe it worse than almost any drug. Like, they really say, like, really you up? So I don't know.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
But a lot of people that I've seen on it, like, I did it, I feel like they're dumber. A couple years after I. I did.
Jason Nash
It once at a. A tailgating game, like a Grateful Dead concert. I took it felt awesome. Snap of a finger was on the ground. Don't remember the.
David Dobrik
But it only.
Jason Nash
Last minute I was out.
David Dobrik
Yeah, that's like a minute.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
Regardless. Okay. So that's what was going on.
Jason Nash
Okay.
Zayn Hijazi
So I'm not sure if it would.
David Dobrik
That.
Zayn Hijazi
I don't. It was just balloons. It wasn't whippets.
David Dobrik
It was. Oh, you don't know.
Zayn Hijazi
Balloons. But they were definitely inhaling shit. Because I was talking to my friend next to me, and she was saying that they're doing something. I forget what she said, though.
David Dobrik
Some kind of Bangkok magic error in the.
Jason Nash
How many drinks would you guess Zayn would have on?
David Dobrik
I don't want. I don't want to over guess. Okay, like, so the other night when we went out. You don't drink beer.
Zayn Hijazi
No, I don't.
David Dobrik
Okay. So I think he had like, 15, 17 shots. Yeah.
Zayn Hijazi
Which is. Which sounds like a lot. Right? But I think it depends on like out here I was pounding shots and I woke up the next day feeling like I didn't drink as much as if I took 15 shots in LA, in America, that would kill me. Fifteen shots, it's all, there's really something.
David Dobrik
About funny he was taking shots and like this the staff here in Bangkok, it's not necessarily like bottle girls. It feels like you're like every day like, like 40, 50 year old men and women that are like bottling like that are pouring the drinks and stuff.
Zayn Hijazi
Oh, these people are partying with us.
David Dobrik
Yeah. Zane was like, like yo, all these people are hammered.
Zayn Hijazi
And he pointed to like a 40.
David Dobrik
Year old woman pouring the drink and he's like, she has no idea what she's doing right now.
Zayn Hijazi
This, this lady was taking like shots with me.
David Dobrik
I was like, yes.
Zayn Hijazi
Yeah, yeah, they don't, yeah, I, I think they, they just know that we're like visiting here and, and they just want to give the time of our life. But like they're also like, I think they're just, they're encouraged to drink with us.
David Dobrik
Yeah.
Zayn Hijazi
So we were like, oh, what a fun night.
Jason Nash
Wow.
David Dobrik
Even the security guard that Zane Ken kept going up to the same security guard and dancing with him. And the security guard was incredible spirits.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
Like that's the thing about being in a different country is like first of all here in Bangkok or in Thailand more specifically, but like when we Instagram story or whatever, they love the camera. Like everybody here, like nobody, like in la, people hide from a flash the second a flash goes on. But people here, it almost feels like this and this sounds bad but it feels like people are doing it for the camera but not in a weird way. They just, they love capturing things and like everybody's down to like being a story or participate in something.
Zayn Hijazi
Like I think that's most Asian countries. Even in Japan, every time I put my camera, pulled my camera out, they were waving like they, they love the video camera and they love being filmed.
David Dobrik
Everybody's really welcoming to it and, and that was like, like there was a moment like I was doing like a story or something and this like security guard came over to Zayn. Like I think it wasn't even, didn't have to do with it. She was like moving a chair or something and Zayn started dancing with her and she loved it and she stayed like dancing.
Zayn Hijazi
She stood there and she knew that.
David Dobrik
She knew that we were filming and she stopped when the flash turned off and then she gave us a smile and a thumbs up, like.
Zayn Hijazi
But she knew, like, comedically, she stood there knowing that it would be funny for her to just stand there and not do anything and let me dance on her.
David Dobrik
It was.
Zayn Hijazi
It was really crazy. Like, I saw her, I'm looking at her face and I'm like, oh, she knows what she's doing. Funny that you sound crazy.
David Dobrik
Yeah, yeah.
Jason Nash
So that's part of, like, tourist culture, right?
David Dobrik
Yeah, but it's not. It was, but it's not like that. Like, you come hospitality.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
But you come to LA and people give you the cold shoulder.
Zayn Hijazi
Like la, you can never pull that in la.
David Dobrik
It's. It's really sad, like, when people ask me about la, like when I'm in this country or like in any other country that I'm traveling, it's really sad that I can't back it up. Like, being in a foreign country. There's no comparable hospitality in Los Angeles than there is in a foreign country. That's what sucks, because people are excited to hear about la.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
But, like, I can't. It's very hard to compare anything when traveling because people are nicer here. Like, everybody's down to just like hanging out.
Zayn Hijazi
And again, it is. It's Asian countries. Like, guys, we're in this hotel right now and we will go out to the restaurant here and it's every five seconds they come up, it'll be a staff of three, they come to the table and they continue to ask, are we doing okay? Are we doing okay?
David Dobrik
Yeah, it's.
Zayn Hijazi
It's like the hospitality is insane. They just.
David Dobrik
It's.
Zayn Hijazi
I think that's her top, top priority.
David Dobrik
I just. I. Sorry, I just had to move the mic away from Ilia's mouth cuz he started snoring. Are you back awake?
Jason Nash
Yeah, I'm here.
David Dobrik
Okay, he's back. I. I will say, what are we talking about? We've talked. Ilya, are you drunk?
Jason Nash
He missed the first 11 minutes.
Zayn Hijazi
Is he drunk?
David Dobrik
I feel like, yes, he's drunk.
Zayn Hijazi
I didn't see him drink a lot.
David Dobrik
He didn't eat and he had a couple beers and I think he's like, really hammering.
Ilya Fedorovich
Where the is the food?
David Dobrik
It's coming, it's coming. Just lean back.
Jason Nash
Have him go back down for a little bit.
David Dobrik
Lean back, go back, go back down.
Jason Nash
We'll wake you, we'll wake you back.
David Dobrik
To the hospital, back to. Back to why this hotel is so nice. So you know how earlier I told you how. Oh, Z, did you know this?
Jason Nash
What?
David Dobrik
My. There was my blanket. I brought a blanket from home. And they left a note on my bed saying, we noticed two of your buttons were broken on your blanket. So we fix them, shut the off. They sewed in the blanket, your buttons.
Zayn Hijazi
On your blanket from home.
David Dobrik
They put brand new buttons on my blanket. And this is going to be a stretch, but I think this is what has been happening. I have this tube of toothpaste I've been using. This may sound like a stretch, but I think this hotel's been doing this to me. And every time I use it back home, it is on its last leg. It takes. It's one of those toothpaste moments where when I push it out, I can't use both hands and put it on my toothbrush at the same time. But when I'm here, it is like. It's like they press it up for you when you're not in the room. Because when I come back to the.
Jason Nash
Toothpaste, there's no way.
David Dobrik
I swear to God, I touch the toothpaste and it comes out perfectly. Like it's full. And I know it's been almost empty since Los Angeles.
Jason Nash
Yeah.
David Dobrik
But I think they're pre prepping my toothpaste. I'm not kidding you.
Zayn Hijazi
What do you mean? When I'm here? You're saying I'm here. Like, you come here all the time. That's Highland.
David Dobrik
Like, now I've had this bottle of toothpaste that I've been fucking with for the last two weeks. And since I've come here, every single day, I push it. It takes a pinky push for the toothpaste to come out. Out. I genuinely think they're doing some to my toothpaste.
Zayn Hijazi

The episode kicks off with David Dobrik and Jason Nash welcoming listeners back to Bangkok, setting the stage for a deep dive into their ongoing adventures in one of the world's premier party cities.
David opens up about a particularly wild Friday night where his attempt to impress new friends led to an early start in drinking at 9 PM. This decision resulted in him becoming extremely intoxicated by 11:30 PM, culminating in hours of vomiting. Reflecting on the experience, David shares:
"I couldn't pre-game. I started drinking to impress them and got really drunk around 5, 6 AM. [01:44]"

"I slept for 18 hours, Jay. 18 hours. [03:14]"
