Wacky Weekend is finally out! 

Apologies for the delay guys, had a few copyright issues with a 1980’s classic featured in the video. As you’ll see though, it was (probably) worth the wait to get the song cleared…

In this rather epic episode we:
✅ Enjoy the worst ever noodle dish
✅ Discover the original Bond villain’s lair (for real)
✅Nearly die on a toboggan
✅Fly in a helicopter over the biggest volcano in Japan
✅Have our dinner stolen by cats
✅ And of course, Connor walks off the shoot.

It’ll be interesting to see if people think this was staged, but it was a genuine reaction.
Is Connor gullible? Am I monster? I suspect the answer is somewhere in between. What are your thoughts?

That helicopter ride definitely made up for everything I put him through though let’s face it.

I really wanted to elevate the cinematography in this episode and do Kyushu’s jaw dropping landscapes. With that in mind, I really went all out with the drone shots where possible. I’m particularly proud of this shot of Kaimondake, the sea and our car.

I stood by the side of the road for 20 minutes while Connor drove back and forth in frustration. But I’d been wanting to get this shot for some years and I’m delighted to have pulled it off!


But we’ve got a thoroughly entertaining Patreon Exclusive episode of outtakes, bloopers and deleted scenes for you to enjoy, once you’ve made it through the massive 42 minute episode on Abroad in Japan.

While I’ve been a bit quiet publicly, behind the scenes I’ve been working on two exciting new videos - will fill you in on a separate post tomorrow.

For now though, enjoy Wacky Weekend and the Patreon exclusive episode!
Have a great weekend - it’s awesome to be back!

How I Ruined My Friendship with Connor | Patreon Exclusive Video

This Wacky Weekend was nothing short of a revenge plot. It couldn't have gone better.

I saw the click bait title and my first thought was, "Oh, God! What have you done to poor Connor now?"

Torben

Jesus Christ that notification almost gave me a heart attack with that title 😂 Looking forward for this one!

DinoKōyō

It’s always a good weekend when there’s a new wacky weekend video!

Oscar Sjöstrand

Looking forward to watching it! Curious to see what you’ll make this year 😄

I've been so excited to watch this!

James

I saw the title as a notification and had a mini heart attack until I read some more.

Mariah Snipes

As we say in the American south, Conner will be strong. Lol been looking forward to this one for a minute!

mahamed

Next title enemies to lovers

Luke Beaman

Drone shot looks great from the still! Currently on a train but excited to watch this at home on OLED TV and do the images justice

morgana5

Can't wait to watch. Thankfully I know you guys are okay because I just watched you review people's refrigerators 😆

Beatrice

It really didn't look staged! That looked like genuine excitement from Connor, poor guy then had his deams dashed 😂

Putsies Mokies

I wanted to write something profound to catch your attention in this tiny time window when you post...asked my cat for an idea he said: mouow! (Means: food!) 😺

James Grant

Next time on wacky weekend chris is gonna tell Connor their gonna dine like kings and it'll be a fucking burger king. Bonus points if it's the only food option for 50 miles.

Daniel Gustafsson

Love Wacky Weekend! :) best duo in Japan! :) I rly like how fun the ep was edited this time! :) the worst part was the food right? xD

NyanAssasin

Chris tripping on that step was perfect comical value for me, loved this episode it was chaotic and funny at the same time.

Jade Dawson

Fantastic episode ✨ yeah helicopters freak me out too - glad it was worth it in the end! Ps poor Connor

Sean Salvador

That was a really fun Wacky Weekend video, the noodle restaurant I thought actually looked pretty good but I'll trust yours and Connors bad review. By the way, I've ordered a Journey Japan eSim for my trip this coming Tuesday! Looking forward to the fast speeds 😉

I think I watched an Abroad in Japan video on the tv for the first time last year and it was an epic experience haha. All the effort that went into cinematography paid off!

abroadinjapan

That's actually genius haha. I suspect he'd work it out though given how cynical he is now!

abroadinjapan

That's awesome! You're one of the first folks to test it out! Let me know how you get on 🙏 And if you have any feedback (critical or nice) would be keen to hear! In the long run I want the sims to come with some useful tips and ideas for travelling Japan. But first things, it's great to finally have a decent eSim I can recommend at long last!

abroadinjapan

Honestly, the first few minutes were creepy but it got good very fast. Still, screw doing that on a windy day haha

Hirami

Someone buy Chris a backpack 😂 that drone bag looked so uncomfy

Lauren Merchant

I need you to know I was enjoying a lovely cup of tea that is now all over my rug bc "tempura battered pussy" made me do a spit take.

Josh Martin

It's very unfortunate that Connor having a bad time makes for the most hilarious moments. When you really think about it, it's Connors fault 🤔

Hayley Khan

Note to self- never piss off chris, he will seek revenge! Poor Connor though, those strings are gonna have to be pulled! Great video as always though, production and editing is always next level!

That opening I watched 10 times
