Okay.
That's important.
Stay hungry.

Always change.
Go higher.
Okay, thank you.
There's no time for sleeping, Amachan.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's a great advice,
but compared to what you did, just really tiny change, man.
I know.
Yeah.
Are you underestimating?
No, I'm sorry.
I'm not saying about--
The power of tiny changes.
No, no, no, no, no.
It's the buildup of tiny changes
that changes the whole world, Amachan.
Of course.
Yeah.
So, thank you.
I understand that.
Thank you.
Okay, thank you.
So, this is from Kimi Kimi San today.
Kimi Kimi San?
Yeah.
Like that song from Aespa?
Like, "Gimme, gimme now.
"Gimme, gimme now."
No.
Okay.
And I don't know that song.
You don't know that song.
(laughing)
I'm sure all the K-pop fans are like,
"Oh, that song!"
Yeah.
And it's Kimi Kimi San, okay?
Oh, it's not "Gimme, gimme."
Yeah.
It's "Kimi, kimi."
Yeah.
So, are you okay?
Yeah, I'm good, okay.
I just love K-pop.
Okay, yeah, of course.
Yeah, every time I have a chance.
Yeah.
Actually, on one of the descriptions of the podcast,
I wrote like a Korean lyric in Japanese.
Oh, really?
Yeah, like, I think it was like,
oh, "neko isosottenno."
That's from a song.
It's a really popular K-pop song that's on right now.
Okay.
And I just wrote that as a description of the episode
because I didn't have anything to write.
Yeah.
And I got like several DMs of like,
"What is a neko isosottenno?"
They freaked people out.
But I just love it.
I love it.
(laughing)
Yeah, they just felt that you mistyped.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know, right?
Like, bro, completely strange sentence.
I know.
(laughing)
It's a K-pop music, guys.
Okay.
Yeah.
Okay, so this is not "gimi gimi san."
It's "kimi kimi."
"Kimi kimi," okay, "kimi kimi san."

Thank you for the message, "kimi kimi san."

Ah.
Thank you.
Mm, thank you.
Thank you for the message.
Message?
Say, "kimi kimi san."
Thank you for the message.
Any flavor that you miss?
Yeah, kind of like--
This question, right?
No, what you miss.
Oh, do you?
The pizza, Papa John's pepperoni.
Yes, yes, yes.
More like Chick-fil-A's.
Yeah, Chick-fil-A's, yeah, yeah, yeah.
'Cause I said it so many times, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But do you have any, any brownie?
Pop-tarts breakfast?
Oh, yeah.
Do you miss it?
I miss it, man.
I love that thing.
Nah.
Do you know?
I would never be able to understand that.
Do you know how popular it is?
I don't-- Your opinion
that you eating Pop-tarts as a breakfast
or whatever, or lunch, or--
I don't think you understand the popularity of Pop-tarts.
06:01
I don't care if it's popular or not.
It's too sweet.
It's just a nationwide thing
to eat Pop-tarts as breakfast.
You should go to a supermarket like Walmart
and go look at the Pop-tart section.
It's huge.
What do you mean huge Pop-tarts section?
It's got such a variety.
Oh, really?
It's got like, there's four packs, eight packs,
12 packs, 36 packs and everything.
It's got so much variety.
It's not about the flavors.
It's the amount of packs.
It's the amount of, the flavors as well.
Of course, there's lots of flavors.
Over 20, I feel like there's a lot of flavors, man.
20?
Yeah, maybe I just bullshit at that,
but I'm sure there's over 10.
Okay.
I'm sure there's over 10, that's for sure.
Like sugar, strawberry, maybe, chocolate?
Yeah, strawberry, blueberry, rainbow.
Wait, what does that mean?
Chocolate, chocolate fudge, brownie, cooking cream.
What is rainbow?
I don't know.
No one knows what a rainbow flavor is,
but it's just there.
It's like colorful and sugary.
Okay, okay.
And it's sweet.
All right, s'mores, our favorite.
Everybody loves s'mores.
Not our favorite, your favorite.
Not me.
There's all these kinds of flavors
that are like so delicious.
And I can't believe you hate 'em, Yamachan.
It's just a disgrace to the American culture.
No, I'm not just, I'm not blaming about American culture.
I just leave them eat those things,
but I don't eat.
It's just too, you remember we did
the one week American food eating challenge?
Yes, yes, yes.
We had a Pope Darts breakfast, right?
Yeah, that was breakfast, yeah, one day.
And it was s'more taste, s'more flavor.
Yeah, yes, yes, yes, it was s'mores.
But it was just sweet.
Too sugary.
It wasn't s'more at all.
It was just sweet thing.
You didn't even taste the s'mores?
No, at all.
It was just sweet chunk to me.
There's gotta be something wrong with your taste buds, man.
It was definitely s'mores, the flavor was s'mores.
Really?
I can't believe you didn't taste any.
Yeah, it was sweet.
It was just too sweet for you.
Wow, I'm starting to think
there's something wrong with you.
I've always felt that in this program,
I'm the weird one who loves sweets, like chocolates,
but now I'm starting to think that
if you can't even taste the s'mores in Pope Darts,
there's gotta be something wrong with you.
Yeah, I kinda, no, I saw that there's a sweet cookie.
Yeah, the layers, right?
The cookie layer.
On top of it, white sweet thing.
Yes, yes, yes.
And inside, there's a brown sweet thing.
Yeah, it's like stripes, right?
Yeah, that's it, that's it.
That's all.
That's it.
09:00
Sweet, sweet thing, some sweet thing.
(laughing)
Sweet thing, sweet inside.
There's a brown sweet thing, and white sweet thing.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's chocolate, and white one's marshmallow flavored.
Yeah.
Did you not get that?
No, that is too sweet.
Wow.
Just sweet.
I wonder why those can be more sweet,
like sweeter than sugar.
Were they sweeter than sugar?
Yeah.
How can they make things more, like sweeter than sugar?
Well, I mean, sugar's not the sweetest thing
on this planet, right?
Oh, really?
Yeah.
No, am I wrong?
I don't know.
No, I'm not a professional sweet thing eater, so.
Like, actually, have you ever tasted sugar itself?
Yeah, it's not that sweet, actually.
(laughing)
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Wait.
No, I'm telling you the truth.
I'm telling the truth.
No, no, no.
(laughing)
What are you talking about?
You're not telling the truth.
It's not truth.
It's sweet.
You've done it before, right?
Yeah.
Like, you know, when they serve some coffee,
you know, they put sugar with it,
and I tried to eat only sugars, but it was so sweet.
So.
Really?
Yeah.
Well, it's not.
So, let me ask you a question.
Yeah, of course.
So, if you have sugar, right,
and then you just taste, just like a taste,
like this much, just a little bit, right?
And then you put it on your tongue,
of course you feel sweetness, but like,
compare that to like this much amount of
Meiji milk chocolate.
Okay.
That's so much sweeter, don't you think?
That's a really difficult question to me.
Why?
Because they're both, oh, it's maybe the same.
Really?
Sweet.
Oh.
For me, the Meiji chocolate's so much more sweeter.
Compared to the sugar?
Yeah, yeah.
Maybe because it doesn't have a taste or anything.
It's just.
But how does it happen?
What do you mean, how does it happen?
How can it be like things,
because chocolates, they use sugar.
Yeah.
To make chocolates, right?
True.
And chocolates are sweeter than sugar.
True.
You're right.
Maybe if it's added, maybe it's the texture,
maybe it's with cacao, it makes it so,
maybe if it has a flavor with it,
it makes it easier to like,
like feel the sweetness.
Okay.
Maybe something like that.
Just like how if it's spicy, if it's hotter,
like if it's hot water on a spicy mouth,
it's painful, right?
Yeah, yeah.
Maybe the temperature has enough effect to spiciness, right?
Just like how like texture could affect sweetness.
12:01
Maybe something like that.
Can be, yeah.
Yeah.
Right.
Okay.
So that's why I think sugar's not the sweetest thing
in this world.
Okay.
Yeah.
Right.
Yeah.
(laughing)
I see that.
Yeah.
All right, that's all, that's it.
Yeah.
Okay.
I persuaded you, didn't I?
Did I persuade you?
Yeah, of course.
Somehow.
Yeah, of course you did.
Okay, to a point.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Thanks for listening, guys.
Thank you.
