It's up folks! The third action-packed episode of Journey Across Japan: Escape to Fuji, as Joey and I travel from Toyama to Gifu in search of a 1,000 year old bath and resurrect a tacky, yet somehow beloved character.

Along the way we wander the traditional streets of Takayama, taste the localA5 Wagyu, explore my favourite museum in all of Japan and resurrect Dr Jelly, as we produce a Japanese commercial in just one day!

All this and more in today's episode!

I have to say, for me personally this was my favourite day of the trip so far. It was certainly a much welcome change from eating disgusting insect dishes, experiencing jump scares in abandoned love hotels and wandering through  creepy forests filled with statues.

We've got plenty of hilarious outtakes and deleted scenes from this episode, so keep an eye out for t
he Patreon Behind the scenes episode in the next couple of days!

IF you missed the last two Patreon BTS episodes, check them out here:

In the meantime folks, enjoy the episode and the rest of your Sunday!

Love how Natsuki started his own brand of hand gel 😂 When can we expect to see it for sale world wide?! Maybe it could be branded as “I Kill Virus Hand Gel”

Dr. JELLY to the rescu!

Mark Erwin

Was hoping for a second Dr Jelly it was worth the wait😁

Loving the series Chris, The continuation of the JAJ series is the way forward. Loving the podcast to btw.

Jashlo

Chris - what’s the track that starts in the car when you are driving eating poke chicken?

Cesar S.

Great first 2 episodes! Looking forward for the third one! Great job Chris and team!

Don't know if I'm just being blind but I can't seem to find the name of the ryokan you visited. Have you posted it anywhere?

That advert was excellent! Why can't all adverts here in the UK be like that, instead of those bloody gocompare adverts!

Satomi Arihara

I wanted to watch your 食レポ 😁

Another cracking episode Chris. Seeing Takayama brings back so many good memories even if I ate way too much Hida beef. Definitely need to visit there again someday.

AJ

Nice one. Thanks for a non-horrifying JAJ video !

Storm

Fantastic video! Your commercials was awesome too. Dr. Jelly!!

Had to watch the ad twice to see Joey casually frying in the background :)

Hot Log Time Machine would have been a great click-baity title.

David Miller

Chris, can you provide us with the name of the ryokan at Gero Onsen with the log?

At last, you guys got a reward for the terrifying encounters you had in the last two! I'm glad you guys got to relax this time rather than stress out or vomit from the food hahaha. The Showa Museum looks so neat- I definitely want to visit there!

I seriously can not make up my mind on which commercial is my favorite. Especially when Norm walks in and is immediately like "I... Should go.." Excellent video, tons of laughs and travel envy, 10/10 probably will watch again.

I think the first one wins for me, just because it was impressive how we thought up an entire concept and character and found a great location in the space of a day! At least this time we had a lot to work with already, it was just a matter of finding a good setting. Norm was hilarious!

robert whitaker

is there a way to order natsuki's hand gel online?

DanTheManWithThePants

Love the video as always. I have to ask - why the Yoshi noise at 2:31? Seemed rather bizarre.

Michael Taylor

Great video! Enjoying the series so far!

Jolie

Takayama just made my bucket list for travel when it’s possible to go. I loved seeing the retro museum. Noticed what looked like a Bruce Lee poster in the retro classroom when you guys were jamming on the xylophone. Was this a movie poster of that era? Very cool.

Blue Catwolf

Sorry, but maybe I did miss a line in the credits: "James Broad will be back, in 'You only live thrice, Dr. Jelly"?

DinoKōyō

What a day! loved the video had some great vibes

Jewel - (Freyja's Konjures)

Im about to give this video some much delayed love here in just a moment. 😎♨💕 You saucy damp boys, you. Lol 🤣 Edit: Its late, and I'll probably regret this comment once daylight hits. Lol Edit edit: Nope. Still quite enjoy "saucy damp boys". 😂 I should have gone a step further even, and said "moist". Lol 🤣

“Doctor Hand Jelly” could def be interpreted a few ways...
