Hello. Japan is famous for the righteous "samurai," "bushido," "ninja," "shogun," and "Zatoichi" who avenge evil, but there are also "hissatsu shigotonin" who assassinate unforgivable evil people.

I've known and worked with Larry for 30 years and he is THE nicest guy in show business. So proud of everything he has achieved in his decades of entertainment!

[@sjavijee]

As a drag queen from Amsterdam, thank you for using your platform to show people we are loving good people. And not what the haters want you to believe out of fear.. spread love!!!❤

[@donovantso]

WOW! Thank you Gareth for being open and understanding. I’m so happy you are able to be so respectful of something that is completely new to you. You have been my favorite and I think this video just proves how genuine and kind you are. Love and respect. 💜🫶🏼

[@letthereberock1]

Gareth and Larry both seem like such genuinely kind people that it brought this straight guy to the verge of tears watching this. If only the rest of the world would follow their example!

[@DavidTexas340]

It starts with you and spreading the awareness to all your friends! Ty em it’s a trickle effect!

[@kmauryo]

IKR I knew instantly he was hetero 😉

[@troygardner6559]

You are such a good guy and an amazing human!! The world needs more people like you!!

[@bobbybj69231]

And more drag queens! 6:32

[@DavidTexas340]

That’s why it’s imperative to not judge others so quickly until you get to know them. I give everyone the benefit of the doubt until they prove me otherwise.

[@jameshigh4274]

Thank you so much for being such a kind person. I love you Gareth!

[@djronniebruno]

If only all straight guys were as good looking and open minded as you Gareth. My first time watching. Great channel.

[@RickTexas]

I love Larry. For over 20 years, every time I went to Las Vegas, I would go to the Diva's show. Larry was always very friendly and willing to talk to everyone that attended the show. He would walk through the casino dressed as Tina Turner to tell people about the show. It looks like you had a great time with this story. You are very entertaining so I HAD to subscribe to your channel. The best of luck to you.

[@paulmorgan74]

At first I thought Gareth was just another SD bro from his thumbnails. After watching a few of his videos now I love how open-minded he is and the wide range of videos on his channel.

[@joeb.8213]

You’re an awesome person, Gareth and that’s why you’re so blessed. It’s a breath of fresh air to see a studly straight guy who is so accepting, loving, and kind. I won’t forget your simple act of kindness when you agreed to have a picture with me and my partner in San Diego. It was at Seaport Village. I instantly recognized you but didn’t realize you were tall. You were with a beautiful woman and a cute toddler. Keep thriving and thanks for being kind to the LGBT community.

[@curtbergeron703]

Why can’t all straight guys be open minded like Gareth! Hot Chocolate, you are amazing!

[@phantpwr]

The confident ones are. The rest are struggling and insecure.

[@lendalee1966]

The good-hearted ones are but don't put it off on just straight guys being jerks. There are gay people, gay men and trans. Women who hate straightening period no matter what the straight guy does at. That straight guy is not willing to sleep with the trans for any steps. He must be hard on transfolded. No, he's straight and he wants to biological women. There's nothing wrong with that. And he has no hate towards that trans woman. But she wants to make it into something. Then you have the gay drag queens that hate straight men. If the straight man isn't gay. Well, that's because he's straight. There are a lot of straightening out there that do not have a problem with the LGBTQ community. I know because I'm part of the community and I know a lot of straight people I have run across very few and I mean very, very few who do not like somebody because of their sexual preference but I have run across a lot of Christians. They do not have a problem with the person being gay or transfer anythey do believe that it's a sin. They believe they have to pray to God so that you don't go to hell. And that's nothing mean for them to say that they truly believe in the Bible. You cannot hate somebody for believing and the Bible if they were raised to believe in that bible. Just like Muslims or race to believe what they believe and Muslims. Religion also do not approve of gay people. And they actually believe in killing the gay. People Christians do not Christians believe in praying for you and being kind to you. A true Christian will be kind to a gay person. That's when you know they're a real Christian. Because true Christians do not hate anybody. But Christians true Christians are hated by the LG b. T community big time and that's not right. You're actually the one that's being in the wrong now. I won't admit there are some straight people that are also gay. People that are horrible transpeople. That are horrible. That's improving this year. There's a lot of trans women out there that are calling themselves transwomen. That really are promoted. Men that like to rape women and they pretend to be a transwoman. So they can go into women jails. Women's prisons, women bathrooms and term those women in the victimso. You gotta look at it from both sides. I look at it from both sides. There is good and bad. And it does not discriminate. You got good people and every group and you got bad people. And every group what bothers me is the majority of liberal woke. People do not believe that they believe anybody that's not like them is completely bad. That's wrong and the ones on the right that are hard cord. Nazi racist, homophobics, they are also wrong. I wish to God that people would wake up and stop being racist. Stop hitting on each other and start caring. About one another for the simple fact that we are all humans and the ones that are sick and evil and like to hurt other people. Physically and mentally those are the people. We need to lock up because they should not be around out in public where they can hurt people. And those kind of people come in every color and come in every type of Is type of sexual orientation

[@LakeConstan]

This is my absolute favourite Travel Deeper video, except for all the ones where Gareth takes his shirt off.

[@rikachiu]

Your humility and honesty is what makes you genuine

[@infinityotto]

*YOU SLAYED, MARSHMELLOW!* It's one of your most impressive videos. Good vibes all around.🪭

[@marcus40709]

That "pronoun" issue was a great way to open an interesting conversation. You really did your research. kudos to that Gareth! And that talk at the Cheese Cake Factory was amazing.. Nothing dramatic; not sympathetic nor empathetic. Just simply two guys talking. We need that now a days. Thia really is an interesting vlog Gareth!

[@mrki731]

I love Gareth so much. My level of respect went even way further than it already was. Thank you of being nice and open minded. Hot chocolate seems amazing! Would love to see her on Rupaul!!

[@gregg5958]

As if I didn’t like your videos enough already! Gareth this was FABULOUS. Thank you so much for being straight but not narrow. What a fun video this was. Marshmallow was a hoot. 🤣

[@curtbonnell4308]

Gareth, you are simply a wonderful human being. Too bad there are not more like you in this world, so much hate against the LGBTQ+ community these days.

[@Dan-xx5jq]

Great to see Garrett never afraid to do stuff out of the box. And it is great for those of us that have never seen this! And women love this?!! Who knew??! Wild!! I was just listening to Avicii's, 'The Nights' and the lyrics: "He (my father) said, "One day, you'll leave this world behind So live a life you will remember".....

[@f33rcetv34]

looked like you had such a good time- which is what drag is all about its not about agendas, pronouns, sexualisation etc. Its about having FUN and finding JOY in life Ive done drag for almost a decade and i can remember watching videos of Larry on youtubes early days as a teenager Simply the Best

[@robertgutzler4818]

I just stumbled upon this and I have to say it was the best show. I love that you had so much fun in filming this.

[@alexanderdiaz1]

Gay clubs are a great place for straight men to meet straight women. There's no competition, your relaxed, having fun. I know of a couple who were married last year and met at a gay club. Of course, if you get hit on by a guy, be polite and let them know your flatter but your straight... they'll walk away or be impressed that a straight guy is in a gay club, and may even introduced you to their straight girlfriends. Win Win For All.

[@Berlane_Defazio]

And if you don't meet a straight girl you still might get Lucky 😎❤️💋

[@ralstonjosephrj]

This is one of the best vlogs you made Gareth, I enjoyed it so much, you are such an amazing human!

[@joelvasquezacosta8824]

Baby’s first twoorp! 27 minutes in & still golden

[@Berlane_Defazio]

Mercy I remember Hot Chocolate from a drag beauty contest in texas in the 80's! The emcee's were Ruth Buzzi and Lyle Wagoner,, you may also recognize him from the film " Miss Congeniality 2 Armed and Fabulous,, Sandra Bullock pulls Tina's wig off!! 😊❤

[@budlongave.productions1900]

I loved how gagged he was when he though HC wouldn't be able to get their red lipstick. So cute.

[@Vicki21.]

Larry is awesome! He is so real and inspiring ❤️! God bless you, Hot Chocolate ! Stay well.😊

[@Lululila67]

how fun! Vegas is fun. Lots to do here.

[@PawneeIN]

This is so amazing. Thanks for sharing their stories.

[@michaelcutcliffe437]

I agree..........the world needs more people like Gareth and Larry especially in the current hate mode maga has thrown the world into!

[@chriswasian09]

the way you said," come on bitch" in lowercase had me 😂

[@lauralee9694]

Thankyou Gareth for bringing us Hot Chocolate and so much fun and love you are amazing❤

[@davidpatterson555]

As a gay man - there is absolutely nothing more gay men love than a straight men who’s not a homophobic a*hole. And he’s right! Most straight who end up at gay bars and drag shows end up having the time of their lives! Gay clubs have the best drinks, often the prettiest girls and just all around the best vibes full of love!

[@sollunaystars]

This was my first time seeing your content and I absolutely loved how you covered a DIL of Hot Chocolate! Just want to add that a lot of us straight women have our guard down in these spaces because we feel safe and welcomed. If straight men with good energy and intentions want to frequent these spaces they should start by actually befriending ppl in the community not just viewing it as a hot spot for beautiful women. ❤️

[@jd7089]

****oh wow Hot Chocolate don’t look 69 at all**** ❗️❗️

[@budlongave.productions1900]

Anybody know what kind of camera Gareth uses?

[@michelewebster536]

Not Chocolate is now and forever your Drag Mother, Baby Marshmallow 💕🥰😘

[@joeblow812]

Hot Chocolate and Marshmallow! ❤

[@DavidTexas340]

That was fun to watch.

[@Kevin-is-here]

[@rubenperez6563]

Hot chocolate did you perform at LA CAGE in WEST HOLLYWOOD?, because I remember that we took a picture together

[@jarodadair7950]

Great episode!

[@MarkOnbone]

That "Yes, Bitch" from Nick!! Love it! ❤😂

[@danaventura5998]

Wonderful video! Perhaps Hot Chocolate will come to Seattle.

[@lilman0820]

[@alessandrosmartins]

Cool. I see you in a different way now. 👏👏👏👏

[@anthonywood7515]

[@faafafineartist]

This is a loving episode.

[@Eric-cq1cz]

69 years old? Black 👏 don't 👏 Crack 👏

[@ABettaMe]

How many watched bc they thought they were going to see Gareth in DrAG??? 👀👀👀✋

[@JoshyJosh]

Don't meant to copy what other comments are saying, its just really true, more straight guys should be like this. He reminds me of my hetero friends :)

[@maxandmaggie2010]

When u come to Manila , check out O Bar one of the , the best drag shows in the world. We love Maxie . She sings with her own voice..................................all in you tube

[@jonathancardenas5252]

Does anyone know what camera he is using to capture his footage?

[@wendybutler1681]

Everybody loves Hot Chocolate! Imo, drag is the epitome of human artistic expression. The body as art. I love the art and the artists! If I was at a different point in my life I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to design and sew for drag performers. I have an eye for detail and I have serious skills when it comes to garment construction. Completely wasted talents as I blob out in disabled obscurity in rural Oregon. At least I have trees to keep me company.

[@diyeiogt]

😭😭😢 Thank you for doing this. 🙏❤

[@cp-gz8lz]

I just love you ! What an amazing human ❤

[@cosbystark69]

Ive been around Hot Chocolate a few times at pirahna and he is SO sweet, a world class human ❤

[@danielrobles7586]

Awesome Dude! 🙌

[@69michaelwhite]

OMGGGGGGGGGGGGG this was so awesome. I saw you for the first time with your Egyptian video. I was there in February and loved loved Egypt. But your willingness to partake with Hot Chocolate was epic. I met her over 30 years ago in Atlanta. Thanks for opening all types of folks to the Female Impersonators. Bravo Mister!

[@moshea8296]

So, so SO well done! Thanks Marshmallow. You nailed it!

[@HollandAbsher]

[@mikewatson5281]

Why?

[@billyruben6540]

Great episode, Marshmallow!

[@GreenWitch1]

So much fun! Im surprised he never went to New Orleans. My first introduction to drag was in NOLA in the 80’s. I’ve always enjoyed a good drag show!! Larry..You’re awesome man 😃

[@mkralj60]

marshmallow 😂

[@ajrivas210]

Well bro you got yourself an new follower b**ch! 😂 this means a lot for you being a heterosexual man and going into the world of others to understand that we’re are all just people! And what a great idea to shine the light for a legend like Hot Chocolate 💕

[@brandoncarpenter9681]

Gareth is a g. You are a great role model for all ages.

[@SweetDonny]
