Ep. 244 - JIT2JIT (Nick's Power Hour in Hong Kong)

green fellow neighbor

Parts of this felt like a modern Bourdain episode ngl

I'm with Slime on the seaweed shits nasty but the dry stuff bangs

This is like a long ass snap vid from that one friend

I’m very disappointed in you Slime. As a man from the Western Slope of Colorado you didn’t say the best fruit we have is peaches!!! Apples? Like wtff that is blasphemy. Represent your home state better next time dude please

Nick pls you don't need cilantro in your pho slime is right just don't get it you can also put mint, jalapeño, lime, or bean sprouts in it if you want to have toppings

living in Colorado as kid, mangoes were absolutely a high-value rarity and my favorite growing up. when we moved states and they became more available, I started eating them all the time, and I actually developed an allergy to mangoes. craziest shit to experience as a kid.

I have a Pikachu gameboy SP from the childhood like the one shown at 14:34 but when I looked closer, it looks like this one has red shoulder buttons, while mine has the standard grey. Idk why but it lead me down a rabbit hole of research but is that one a Chinese version/knockoff of the original?

ik im late but fun nerd fact no one cares about. Pokemon stadium 2 in japan is pokemon stadium 1 here. America's actual Pokémon Stadium 2 was japan's third game, pokemon stadium gold and silver. pokemon stadium 1 in japan had like barely half of the og 151.

Seaweed salad is so fucking ass I feel so validated. Shit tastes like licking a jetty. Coleslaw goes hard though maybe that’s just the Jewish in me

This episode doesnt work for me. It played the first 5 seconds and stops

"You need to wear shorts and a hoodie" all while three locals walk by in pants and short sleeves lol

pho and seaweed salad being on your woat list????? yall have horrible taste lmfao

This was such a strong episode and somehow also so out of the ordinary. Slime asking if they're in their WoAT era had no idea the banger Nick had just compiled!

nick trinketmaxxing as soon as slime isn’t there

Nick just needs to get Pho in San Jose fr, the hate towards Pho is wild

Damn they got the Haute42

That view is gorgeous.

I learned from this that sonic was first released on my birthday, I share a birthday with sonic! Thats so cool

“We should go to the planets where ants can die” is an all timer yard quote for me and I don’t even know why

Nick is so unbelievably right about pho, a friend recommended it to me and I had it twice and didnt like it, probably because of the cilantro. When I told said friend he just said he gets it without the cilantro, which made me feel betrayed. Removing the Cilantro and saying you like feels disingenuous somehow

The hot chicken taken is so contrarian. Except for Dave's, ts is actually butt

Jit2Jit is epic

It's kind of wild to me that Slime and the others think that this is the WOAT era. On the contrary - imo it was episode 150-200, where it kinda felt like yall were just clocking in and putting in the hours, that was truly the "worst" of the Yard... which is weird to say, because there really is no "worst of" for you guys, you just are mid at absolute worst. But overall since ep 200, things have really been improving somehow - sorta like how some shows absolutely stink for their season 3, but then seasons 4 and 5 somehow bring it all back. I also could be completely overthinking this, idk man it's 1:31 on a Thursday night at the end of my Master's and I'm playing Factorio and eating ramen while typing into the void, hoping someone might resonate with whatever tf I'm saying. Thanks for reading

"you have to wear a hoodie and shorts here" three people walk by in pants and t-shirt

what is this cilantro pho conversation lmao

“Uncle Nick Explores” needs to be a new series.

damn 40 mins in and i just now realize theres no lud or aimen in this one .weird

Yard essentials china edition

I dont even think about cilantro with pho. Go get better pho

I literally subscribed for this bonus ep, not the WOAT era by a landslide

The cilantro take with the ramen comparison is crazy. If pho doesn’t have cilantro it’s like the ramen doesn’t have the sliced boiled egg or the dried seaweed slice, it’s not everything about it

How much fuckin cilantro has Nick seen in pho?? That shit is about broth brotha

Nick.... the cilantro take is wild. Pho doesn't need cilantro. Whoever told you that was wrong

Dinosaurs were huge because the oxygen saturation in the air was higher, that’s what limits the size of animals

this shit been gas

Ludwig’s Suica arc educated all of us about what a Persimmon is guaranteed

H C

H.

i love the fun off beat episodes, its refreshing after eating out of the podcast trough with no silverware just in it with only my mouth

yeah nick you gotta go on a food cleanse you are weird now

The zoom in on the China exclusive Nick action figure killed me. 10/10 my favorite part

Uncle Nick touched me (emotionally)

nicks pho take is absolutely crazy pho is amazing

Pale lake

I want the boys to go to Jamaica together

"you have to wear shorts here" then 3 chinese people walk into frame wearing pants is truly top kek

dare i say goat era

im built different, the poo particles dont effect me

The main ep is truly top 10 maybe top 5, this isn’t the WOAT boys

they call it box art the way i be giving head.

not woat era. I have laughed out loud to a bunch of stuff in recent eps.

Long time listener first time commenter. The way Slime immediately rattled off “like Josh” after Nick talked about hot chicken sandwiches being designed to kill stupid people, absolutely sent me. He had to have been looking for a way to call Josh dumb for a minute to fire that off that quickly. RIP Josh. 😂

Who in your life told you pho is a vessel for cilantro That’s essentially saying you eat tacos so you could have the cilantro on top of it

Everyone tripping about the pho take meanwhile I'm flabbergasted they didn't have their visas sorted until a few days before their trip. I know most of the time they travel they don't even have to think about visas but I figured Aiden would at least know it's advisable to do it a month before your actual trip date

Need more of these videos has inspired to me to solo travel

i appreciate that they always come back to bones

23:30 yeah its the woat but we still love you guys

pho is thinner ramen which has different noodles and overall less oily and is not even served with cilantro every time he’s js wrong

CILANTRO IS NOT THE MAIN FLAVOR OF PHO!!! AHH! IT'S A GARNISH AND NOT EVEN NECESSARY. PHO IS THE CURE

Nick's phô cilantro take might be his weirdest food take yet

Nick’s food takes constantly floor me

Damn idk but i cant view it :(

Why isn’t there an audio version of this ep in the feed?

Fellas I just want to say 244 was genuinely an incredible ep. The Fake Rolex sidequest was cinema and Slime’s cane walk-cycle should inspire animator’s for decades to come

30:30 what the fuq, just close the toilet lid when you flush

I was just telling my girl the other day that coleslaw was put on the earth by the devil through the Dutch the other day, crazy

Not wanting to commit time to something but enjoying it when you finally do hit me right in the feels. It's like you were describing me. But at the same time, I'm like Slime where my social battery WILL run out fast and I need to disengage

Ngl I’d watch nick vlogs all day

Coleslaw is the whitest shit possible, as a white we get clowned for eating that nasty shit

The guy who does the cover art for radiohead (Stanley Donwood) is crazy good, did all the art for the albums exepct the first one. Good eye

To answer nicks question about the smelling like shit disorder “Between 80% and 95% of East Asians, including many Chinese people, possess a non-functional ABCC11 gene, which results in little to no underarm body odor and dry earwax. While they sweat through eccrine glands to regulate temperature, they have fewer lipids in their apocrine sweat, preventing the bacteria-produced odor common in Western populations.”

Wingstop for girls, but it's just a make up salon where they're experts in doing crazy wing designs for eyes

As someone who also has the cilantro soap gene, Pho without cilantro is high key one of the best soups. Nick has clearly only gone to trendy places with awful names like Titty Phock and has a mental picture of the food based on the lowest effort example.

We are 5 minutes in and it's one of my favorite eps so far. Audio sounded great here but not sure about other platforms

What about a dang blue whale?? 🐋

This era is NOT the woat

An emotional sendoff to the episode :') thank you Slime for delivering such a powerful performance

The explanation around time commitment is super relatable. I never really heard it in quite the same way as Nick explaining how it’s difficult to commit to movies or a trip because you lack the control over the circumstances at the time, but then, also always enjoying it anyway.

the pho take is crazy cilantro is such a mild ingredient in pho loved the ep though

46:00 persimmon in both hard and soft forms are delicious...

Never been one to like Vlogs but this was actually really nice

"alright bitches we're in chiraq" is such a crazy way to open a vlog and yet it is so natural for him

lemonade stand all sick? call em Los Chomos Hermanos

he kept it small

The white bread is a soul food thing. It’s meant to mop up all the sauses from your meal.

Nick you are such a beautiful bastard and you need to be protected against Putin and his anti-lesbian army

Isn’t pho also w thai basil?

Nick once again with the worst food takes

Nicks pho opinion is so stupid

Nick hating pho is so real

I experienced Hong Kong on port call in the navy so it’s nice to see yall experience it alone and then with one close guy friend. It’s a cool perspective and a fun ep that felt nostalgic. Thanks

Nicks power hour is why hes so great he’s just such a real dude

saying pho is bad without cilantro is like saying a pizza is bad without basil

as a hong kong viewer is very nice to see them goofing around, it would be cool if they try some fried pig guts too

Slime got mile high slawed

Yall should play deadlock

i am getting so fucking rage-baited by nick's pho take, esp knowing that he was raised in orange county which has the biggest viet population outside of actual vietnam

Hi Nick. I am a Vietnamese fan. What you said about pho qualifies as Asian hate. Just fell to my knees in a Pho 98

This era is the GOAT

I eat yogurt and I'm not lost at all I'm trying to bottom, I know what I want

Favorite member of the yard.

I think Nick’s pho take is possible the worst take of all time. Cilantro adds such a minimal tiny amount of flavor. All the flavor comes from hours it sits in different animal bones to create a super savory stock-like soup. The noodles have a great texture and most meats added are super yummy. To say cilantro is the essence of pho and the main part is like saying bulbasaur is the main part of Pokémon and what makes it different.

Chomobani

The M2AF game store saga is one I am hoping continues

I like this weeks style of episode, but I wish there wasn’t music playing the whole time

Nick: “I’d kill to see the wold from a bugs perspective” slime: you can straight up do that, it’s in books” 😂😂

Def not in woat era lwk been really enjoying all the variety in the eps lately been a funny change of pace

I liked Nick talking to himself on the stairs with the reflection right next to him

these are the coolest little one off episodes ever

woah don't use his government like that in the description man

when everyone was addicted to league that was the woat era

As an audio listener I just fell to the floor 🥲

This definitely hasn’t been the worst era. In my opinion that would be the last eps of the first set

oh THIS is a trinket posts

"Pho is cilantro ramen" BRUH. Maybe this is a California thing, and they don't do pho right, but this feels like saying chicken noodle soup is just chicken ramen.

Watching this after the quest for healing trinkets is very funny. Its definitely not WOAT era

The Pho take is so mid. Most of the time the cilantro and veggies are on the side to add for preference… JUST DONT GET IT, YOU DON’T NEED IT! You don’t not like Pho, you just hate cilantro. That’s like saying you hate all pizza cuz it could have a topping u hate on it even tho the one presented to u doesn’t at all.

I don’t know how this happened but right after the fart in the end of the video it started to REEK all around me

He didn't even cry. It truly is the WOAT era

I think this is far from the WOAT era. I think the Slime games of favor is at least top 5 yard ep all time.

Nick hating pho because of cilantro is like turning down an entire cake because of the sprinkles

definitely not the WOAT era, this and the past few eps were extremely entertaining. especially Nick's power hour

18:32 i really enjoy opening things. People like to buy stuff just to keep it sealed. Really love a good opening the item to actually view its contents, love that.

People who like cilantro: "you can barely even taste it!"

Nah I get Slime on yogurt. I enjoy it now and then but if you just hand me a cup of yogurt there is a solid chance i'll be grossed out and not want it, I gotta be in the mood. My 3 WOAT foods are beans, cucumbers, and the fuckass $1 for 8 walmart shitty hot dogs. I'll wolf down a plain dog on a bun all day if it's like nathan's or costco, but those cheap ass ones are actually unbelievably terrible. Also if something has cilantro I just don't order it, same with beans, so I can feel Nick on that. I hate asking them to remove an ingredient that makes me sound like a stupid baby bitch so I just find something else lmfao. Unless it's fast food, then i'll order my mchicky plain and my tbell with no beans add rice

I do like cilantro but I don't like pho. I've just never found it very flavorful

This era is not the WOAT I think you guys have been really creative and it’s been really entertaining and I’ve also been laughing a lot

Hey this isnt to bash uncle Nick but if we dont get a nick & aiden chinese power hour im gonna be devastated. I'll need aiden to imbibe more tinctures as recompense.

great ep, not WOAT

Staying with uncle nick on the weekend includes alot of introspection and im loving it

Inching closer to the Nick solo webseries

can't believe the man who eats cold factor meals is the culinary voice of reason this episode smh

After hearing the pho take Uncle Nick becomes the uncle we don't talk to

The Pokémon RSE soundtrack is an elite pick for background music

this is not the woat era. i have loved these last couple weeks of episodes <3

This part of the yard is lower on average for the day to day episodes, but has way higher peaks. The Yard D&D absolutely makes up for it too.

If only we lived in a world where we got nick vlogs

This episode lowkey goes crazy ngl

nicks on some bullshit with the pho take

This is dope

Nick is the embodiment of Vanilla mace's statement. HES SO WHITE!

Talkin about mikes brands and bringing up ikes, but not meaning mike and ikes threw me for a loop🤣

After hearing Nick's take on pho I wholeheartedly believe his luck of the draw of being born and raised in SoCal was wasted on his taste buds.

as the representative for the Vietnamese people, Nick pho is not about cilantro.

our favorite uncles watched over us today

Spending 12 hours making pho broth for nick to come in and say it’s just cilantro…

deadass that game store looked a lot like a corner shop in a mexican flee market

8:45 is a beautiful shot

What's the background music?

This is the goat era for real. Thank you uncle Nick for taking us with you. Wish each uncle would take us with them in different countries one day.

nick saying cilantro is the strongest taste in pho is CRAZYYYYY

Peaches are colorado Fruit MR. Slime

thank you uncle nick i had a fun day

This is so goated

I used to work at Ike's and my manager snorted wasabi powder in the back with another employee for fun

this era is lowkey the goat of the yard im ngl

End of last year was starting to slump but I think the Dinner Party Virus [feat. Its Time To Go] actually kicked off a new leg of the show that’s been better than ever insofar

You’re telling me nicks woats are something he is genetically incapable of liking, and another which he admitted tastes good smh

Great ep

This was cool. I always like the few special vlogs u guys make it adds to the podcast experience seeing a bit of what the trip looks like and what u guys experienced. helps us relate to when u guys actually talk about the trip

The Planet Where Ants Can Die sounds like young adult sci-fi novel

Nick is so right that Pho is fucking disgusting

Woat but im working on it ahh

m2af china episode

slimes thumbnail on his recent vid was pretty good i dont blame him

7 min in and this is already exactly the vibes I needed. Thanks uncle Nick I really felt the ignoring vs doing when it comes to all the big responsibilities and the terror followed by freedom and joy when you separate yourself

Spent the weekend with Uncle Nick and he taught me how to freestyle and hit a 720

22:30 bros doing the kelby closed yet open pose

you can get food without cilantro and still have all the herbs. the pho place by my house doesn’t even put cilantro in their recipe, just mint and basil. this is especially crazy because nick is from socal which has such a high amount of great viet food.

starfruit was everywhere in jamaica when i was there started buying it at home!

Aiden got that new COVID

I don’t see Nick as our uncle but more our famous cousin

Maybe Slime can control his farts, he kept it small

Ayeo “fishes bitch” hell yeah

Nick really doesn't know what's in pho. He's just guessing. Totally fair to not like a food, but to just make up an ingredient that isn't traditionally added is crazy.

All those years of nic implying he was a food guy only for him to have some of the absolute worst food takes in history AND have the cilantro x soap collab gene.

Damn the Nick schizophrenia episode really happened

Ain’t no way they play Slimes Games of Favors then start thinking they fell off 🤦‍♂️ GOAT era

first the movie theater nacho shit and now this pho take man what are we doing here

shout out Ike's Sandwiches - the menage a trois on dutch crunch is one of my all time favorites!

message 2 all chinese

ngl it couldnt be further from the WOAT era rn

the craziest food take I've heard since this insane pho take was the movie theater nachos....

hell yeah been waiting for one of these

I struggle with vacation the same way. My wife wants to go and I just cant even think about it. Once we go it's great but getting there is so hard for me.

It would be crazy if this episode reminded me of my childhood. Imagine if I had paused this episode to download and play the Bomber Man roms.

Glad we got the video episode early, cause the last premo and standard episode are so visual heavy I just couldn’t watch em till the next day

Whoever thought of this title needs a raise

MessageFrom1Friend

As a person who likes pho and cilantro, in no world is cilantro THE POINT of pho, can certainly be enjoyed without

Honestly I love these yard episodes where things don’t go according to the plan. Like the episode where nick and Aiden get a shake is one of my favorites. Keep up the good work 👍

How can this be the woat the medallion is yours

Nick really has the best high stoned thoughts stone cold sober. The power he would manifest if he smoked is frightening

On the vacation part, why don't you think being on holiday is "recharging"?

8:36 such a sweet ass shot

I love hanging out with cool uncle Nick

I'll say it, Yard Essentials Edition is goat era

lemonade cringe chomo disease is serious business, yall

that amnesiac art book is sooooo sick

Guys watch the new Netflix dinosaurs series voiced by Morgan Freeman. Its magnificent.

Nick might be becoming my favourite yard member

fuck ludwig do a beijing vlog

nick picks such good camera angles

I’m not with uncle Nick for the weekend I get to be with uncle Nick for the weekend

Nick sits very femininely on stairs. Or it might just be his feminine ass legs.

hell yeah we get an extra episode of m2af this week

Pretty sure the bread in the fried chicken box is to help keep the moisture in the box down, itll absorb some of it so the whole box doesnt get soggy

Wasn’t there also a nick and Aiden milkshake ep

Aiden and chomo stand being sick really sucks I would've loved to see them for a preimo 😔

Peak episode until "cilantro ramen".

I get the sense Nick has not been eating his pho with sriracha and hoisin. These two sauces pair with the pho in a beautiful way that provides a dramatically improved sensory experience. Especially valuable if his main complaint about it is that it’s too bland.

Fire ep

M2AJIT

Loving uncle nicks house

The fruit of Colorado is clearly peaches as in paladade peaches fuck Georgia all my oops live in Georgia

Don't worry the lighting in that hotel room looks super cozy

i for one and super happy with uncle nick week.

JIT2JIT smash hit success surprising no one

That Amnesiac book is a crazy pull

The name Jit2Jit alone is soo fire, this gunna be a good ep.

My fridge is just full of coleslaw and 5 flavors of chobani yogurt maybe I am the problem

Yay day with uncle nick

why doesnt nick have a nakeyjakey style youtube channel

This ain’t the WOAT, personally I feel like the first 50 eps although some pretty iconic moments that really defined the rest of the podcast, was by far the WOAT era. Which in my mind is still great

Jit2Jit with Roane? Didn’t know I needed this

Nick you are legitimately just wrong about pho lol. It is a damn beef soup and cilantro is literally a garnish

Can you get pink mouth from talking into a farted mic

Not a big Radiohead fan I’m a creep

Nick is insane for the his pho rambling

Another fact to blow your mind: blue whales are the biggest animals ever, out of everything including every dinosaur we've discovered. And they're alive today. So some things have still gotten bigger, not just smaller.

Soyjaking at the screen when all the Toku figures appeared

Sun tzu curse

Can’t wait til they get back to LA and we finally get CRIP2CRIP💙🥶♿️🤏🏿

This has got to be crazy to anybody not watching M2AF

I can't believe how wrong Nick's take on pho is

REAL big talk from Mr. Movie Theater nachos and Cold Factor meals

DougDoug made AI create a new covid

What is the deal with aiden getting sick in china?

This can’t be the WOAT era bc we just had slime ball and menthol cousins will keep me fed possibly forever

Crazy that the whole crew got sick. Travel is so fickle. I think I’ve gotten sick every time I travel internationally

if only I could try it. I want the full meal

I hope he cries in this one

10 minutes in and I must say I love the use of wide shots with Nick far from camera. Makes Nick feel like one small person in an overwhelmingly huge city.

Is this trinket posting?

this ep feels like watching m2af for the first time, i enjoy it.

Does Aiden have a Hong Kong sickness curse?

Im genuinely fuming over the fact that Nick describe pho as "cilantro ramen". His worst take yet and that is saying a lot

Seeing you do it, I realised I've not opened a CD case in a very long time.

Ya know I thought it was the WOAT era but the shit black has turned me around

Def not the WOAT because the audio isn’t as ass as it was in the beginning

I have bad news for Slime....all animals have never had doctors, not just dinosaurs .Humans are animal doctors, and only for pets and livestock lol

what would it be like to be picked up by a vacuum as an ant?

i hate coleslaw its ass

🥳🎉

chinese m2af

That Sonic 10th anniversary thing is fucking sick

Why am I the only one sweating? Hold on let me put another sweatshirt on before I go outside and think about it

I cannot stand for the daves slander

Nick’s pho take is literally worse than his movie theater nacho take

I love staying with uncle nic he lets me drink a beer with him and watch old skate compilations

Message2AllJits

Not mad, just disappointed

boat era tbh

The yard is genuinely having a generational run, since that sick Christmas ep every episode has been so good. What I dislike about pre recorded content you've been rolling out has been more then made up for with the effort you guys have put in and the fun concepts you've had for episodes

JIT2JIT: Gamer's Paradise

The soft seaweed he mentions is wakame I believe

Shoutout tidal listeners 🗣️

i’m only 5 mins in but i hope he finds a copy of hong kong 97

Slime asked if it was the Woat era but they been in their bag this last month

I love uncle Nick he lets me bum off his cigs and I’m 14

I think I dreamed this one time

Seeing the cheap chinese hitbox I bought on aliexpress in China really makes me feel connected to Nick Falco from the Yard.

This might be my favorite episode title yet. Congrats on infiltrating China (they aint coming back)

Nick going jit2jit while Aimen goes shit2shit

Uncle Nick definitely does not understand how to care for me but he lets me eat air heads for dinner so hes cool.

a Nick episode is all I could've asked for; from a humble lesbian

As a “creative” myself, Nick kind of hit the nail on the head about the all-in vs. ignore mentality cycle you get stuck in and how physically removing yourself to a far away location shifts your brain from feeling any guilt that typically lingers

Bruh nick is a god with these camera angles

Aye im sick too i cant make it to the podcast srry

I have a pretty good guess which thumbnail slime was working on LMAO

Did nick forget about the lovely nick and aiden power hour of the roadtrip for insane milkshakes after slimes betrayal

Nick's taking back what's his finally
