Loving Your Culture and Relationships - Ep 4 - GeniusBrain w/ David So & Joe Jitsukawa

[@DavidSoComedy]

Hey y'all just wanted to say thankyou for all the love! I' figuring out an exact schedule right now for y'all! it'll be two uploads a week and I'm trying to figure out the best time for y'all to stop on by and listen? Maybe night time uploads vs morning?

[@MrSoko23]

mornings!

[@pandalover1238]

Night time please! It's so much nicer bc I can unwind and actually focus on your talk♡♡

[@tianayogenth1003]

Night time

[@ryanlee3676]

Could you also release these to Spotify as well ?

[@atzman6]

Night time because your night is my morning

[@yoosungkim5801]

Your guys relationship advice saved my almost failed relationship right now, especially the advice David’s mom gave. And how to say sorry even through the hardest times when you REALLY don’t want to. if i haven’t watched this i would probably be single by now lol.. so thanks guys, please keep making these!!

[@millendoan5641]

Idk if you’ll ever read this but this podcast has been really helping me with studying in uni. I listen to it while I do homework and it’s motivating me to kill it this semester. Keep posting more episodes, and being unapologetically yourselves! Much mudda love!!!

[@DavidSoComedy]

uggghhhhh thankyou!!! keep supporting and well keep cranking these out i fucken love being able to do these long format talks and topics!

[@jsherpa25]

I'm currently a college freshman and have been watching you guys since 7th grade. You guys have consistently been what I watch on the daily. I'll appreciate your real opinions and your dope stories. And of course the ones that are more to come. 😀

[@etherealvampress]

Exact same for me! JK and David kept me real with myself since Day 1, and I've always found a way to feel good and laugh with them throughout their videos. Much love ❤❤❤❤❤

[@jonabaih83]

Damn I love this podcast already, every episode just gets better.

[@xenghuong]

Damn, love every podcast! Need more!

[@brandonlee2880]

I’ve been watching both of you guys since I was in the 8th grade, now I’m a senior in high school. Without you guys I wouldn’t be the wise young man I am today. I’m extremely grateful for you two. You guys make my learning process easier. Thank you for all you do.

[@Syn741]

why is joe's cup so far away from him? LOL

[@Syn741]

good for you lol.

[@ibrahimaagne286]

Haha good eye

[@kpboix99]

Very mentally stimulating and entertaining discussion topics, enjoyed it :)

[@Stephanie-qi1ls]

41, 44 100% honest and unapologetically myself 50:07 57:27 people don’t speak their minds because they don’t know what’s in their heart. sometimes people are irrational because they’re in pain

[@pandalover1238]

When you were talking about that person and expressing their gratitude and change in perspective it reminded me of me of myself actually. I've been watching your videos just right about the same time as that person, 13 or 14 years old or so and now I'm in university. I remember I'd get so wrapped up in my own head and how I wouldn't allow myself to present myself the way I wanted to do so in middle and even high school. As I watched your videos even further I would slowly break out of my shell and become less apologetic and take things at an easier perspective. Still with worry of perception but less about concealing a part of my identity that I felt was wrong. & in turn I was able to weed out the people who weren't as honest and truly a friend. Even after all these years of watching & learning from you I've always been able to learn something new, in a way that opens my way of thinking. Thank you David!♡♡

[@atzman6]

28:40 What country does teach about crimes? The answer is Germany. In my 13 years of school i learned 3 years extensive about warcrimes, how hitler rose to power, mindset of the German population in the 1920 to 1940 and etc. I'm not saying that those warcrimes/crimes against Humanity are on the same level. I think to resolve the problem with japan's warcrimes, japan should aplogize to the asian country like the germans did to the jews.

[@thomaskittock2866]

America barely teaches that shit.

[@purpleplanetary]

Could you move the camera closer? I’d like to see all of the flaws.. thank you 😂

[@DavidSoComedy]

we will we have some stuff stock piled haha

[@jcheartspj]

I'm just a 16 yr old kid trying to figure myself out. Been watching you guys since I was a fetus, and I just want to say thank you guys for being there when a kid needed you most. I don't know if you know just how hard you impact my life, but thanks.

[@KasheYan15]

Love how u guys made these serious kind of topics so chilled and laid back

[@pinoyj316]

Look into how Germany deals with their past war crimes. They actually put plaques of the names of Jewish people on the cobble streets where their homes use to be that they were taken from. The plaque has their name, where they were taken, and when they died. Possibly accepting past crimes and putting them at the forefront is a different alternative to moving on? Idk look into it if youre interested, just my humble opinion.

[@BadTrash13]

Hey man, I just wanted to thank you for the awesome content. I recently went through a tough patch, but the discussions you've been having, the advice you've been throwing down, it's really helped me process what I was going through and helped me start moving forward. I really appreciate it. Love what y'all are doing.

[@DeeDee97]

Been listening to this whole cleaning and didn't realise how fast I cleaned thanks to these interesting topics. I love the way you both talks and reflect and explain such complex topics so well.

[@godisgood1463]

18:44 I truly believe that if you lived and witnessed first hand the atrocities the Japanese Imperial Army did the families then I can understand why it's so hard to forgive. Ppl in China witnessed babies being bayoneted so I can see how they can see Japanese as the enemies. Anyone who can forgive and move are really strong ppl. I hope the remaining survivors can find peace.

[@hangdiana]

I enjoy this ted talk about relationship with you and Joe

[@Jess-qu4ip]

I'm so sad this episode ended, I really enjoyed listening to both of your perspectives on some of this stuff and David dude, you made me realize that I have been and still am doing the exact same thing, where I want others to value me so I feel like I have value, it makes me want them when i dont because I just want them to want me. Dude seriously thank you.

we only on the 4th episode and this is already on the top of my lists of favorite podcasts i really love your real ness and openness and i love how it’s not very structured and y’all are just having a conversation you should think about trying to put it on soundcloud or spotify

[@rainpogchamp9665]

Thank you for this David, I absolutely love this podcast series, just discussion about many issues that I think, for the most part pertain to Millennials, as some of these topics are very sensitive or controversial and aren't spoken about often. Especially your very articulate manner with how you speak on certain topics, keep up the great work!

[@SKeyLPro]

I love this podcast so much, feels so personal. Thanks for being so real David!

[@arianalarosa9254]

By far my favorite podcast so far 🙌🏽! I love talking about relationships 😊💕.

Dood, it's such a fun podcast! It's really rare to hear guys talking about relationship, culture, and life, and it's been fun to listen to you both

Opening up my mind here and making me really think about some things. Great podcast once again! Thank You, David and Joe~

This was my first time listening to the podcast and I gotta say you guys gave me some information that I really needed. Thanks for this! I love the new changes to the channel and I feel this is a good direction! Keep doing what you do!

[@juliakim9769]

i was also in a relationship similar to david’s but speaking from a girl’s point of view, to me, he was so dependent on me for his happiness and self worth that the relationship was so one sided that I was scared to break it off and leave him completely. even after we broke up (i finally felt i had the courage to get out and stay out) i had to be his friend and help him through this breakup and it was really hard to do. i finally told him he wasn’t gonna get better if he kept on relying on me and i just can’t talk to him anymore. i just ended up feeling traumatized by this type of guy who used me as a crutch

[@alexgioskos215]

great episode was really good to hear the both of u guy vent this subject muah

I've grown up watching jk and davidso, and while I loved watching their goofy videos, sometimes it wasn't what I needed to get me through something. I'm really glad this podcast can talk about issues with a serious tone.

[@kwest1401]

I really loved this podcast. It's something everyone can learn from

[@JH4NG]

Damn love the content! From the culture embracing to the relationship segment and especially the “homegirl” part. I felt that lol

[@godsangel1644]

I really enjoyed this video and felt like I learned a lot. I completely agree with David on the learning the language and culture of your partner. I would want to be able to respect my partner's culture as they would do mine. My family is a huge mixture of different cultures so this train of thought is very natural.

[@Kenny21y]

I needed to hear that 2nd half...🙏

[@Abner3]

Thanks for the insightful video! I have a lot of introspection to do 🧠 Big kiddos to seeing serious Joe. It’s a nice change from wacky Joe that tries to get a chuckle from the audience.

20:05 in germany we have 1-2 years of talking about german war crimes in school

[@nctiddy]

nur 2????? hatte kein jahr wo nationalsozialismus kein thema in geschichte oder deutsch war

[@anessalwan]

@@nctiddy 5 und 6 klasse waren steinzeit bis antike, 7 -8 mittelalter 9 hatte was mit nationalsozialismus zu tun aber war auf die Zeitlich knapp weil wir französische revolution, gescheiterte deutsche revolution, napoleon und kaiserreich bis WWI und etwas weimarer republick. 10 war komplett dem addi gewidmet und In der oberstufe war ein halbjahr rom und einanhalb nationalsozialismus.

[@anessalwan]

@@nctiddy je nach bundesland sind die themen sowieso anders. Bei mir war das jetzt der niedersachsen plan. Kein Plan wie das in anderen Bundesländern ist.

[@nctiddy]

Twenty4 L lebe auch in Niedersachsen und ich hatte so ein ähnlichen Plan aber ich kann mich gut daran erinnern dass wir sehr sehr oft über den nationalsozialismus gesprochen haben also ich meine damit das gefühlt jedes Thema zum nationalsozialismus führte, zb haben wir über Martin Luther gesprochen und dann kam irgendwann die Frage auf wie das und das mit dem nationalsozialismus in Verbindung steht das ist mir schon sehr früh aufgefallen

[@G00NIE]

Death is a very simple and understanding occurance. We live, we die. So I get it when SOME people can live life with that meaning and way of thinking. I dont however think it means they're "messed" in some sort of way. Isn't s bit messed up when something we care of about has to be gone forever, and we deny it, and get angry about it even tho we knew the whole time it was inevitable?

[@elidames6889]

Please stick with this. I have a really really good feeling about this podcast

[@angeLxLaw]

@50:52 I'm like Joe where my ex said "i think we should just be friends for now" bc he wanted to "focus on his studies" and the "for now" stuck to me and made me think we were just taking a break (he said it in Indonesian so context-wise it read more clearly, and he never explicitly said "i wanna break up"). So i casually said okay bc I didn't think much of it until his friend actually told me he wasn't really interested in getting back tgt again, and that he said it that way bc we never know what could happen in the future. But with his mindset then, I wish he had just been straight up instead of giving me false hope when he knew for a fact that he didn't want to continue :/ but this was like 2 years ago so I'm good now

[@xMeijin]

I hope you will be able to put this on Spotify !

[@Lalalalala...]

This was prob my fave episode yet. They are all good tho

[@Jo-gv5yg]

Hi, love this podcast. I just wanted to share some of my opinions on the relationship between Korea and Japan. I'm Korean american, but I lived in Korea for a few years and learned a lot about Korean history. I agree that hate should not be directed towards Japanese people now who had nothing to do with the things that happened in the past that were done by their ancestors. However, I do want to explain where it might come from. Although current Japanese people are not the ones that did it, the pain that was caused back then still continues to exist till this day. Our grandparents are war survivors. The war is not ancient history, it still a fresh scar. What makes it worst is ,as you mentioned, how Japan would not apologize and admit their wrong doings. Many women who were kidnapped and violated as comfort women are protesting still to this day for Japan to admit their inhumane acts and apologize. Comfort women are just a fraction of the dark things that happened during that time. Japan continues to show the same response of indirect denial and refuses to apologize. Japan and Korean relations have been very rough recently as Japan officially removed Korea from the trade whitelist. This only made underlying hurt and negative feelings to surface even more. Although my friends and your Japanese friends say they don't have any negative emotions towards Korean people, the government and many big companies degraded Korea and Korean people. As much as we can't generalize that all Japanese people hate Koreans, we also can't say that Korean Japanese people who live in Japan are free from discrimination and hate. There were plenty of Japanese people who publicly projected their hate towards Koreans in Korean Japanese neighborhoods. Korean and Japanese relations will always be complicated. The Dokdo issue is another giant one of its own. I think the problem of all of this is that there are still Japanese people that think they are better than Koreans, belittling Korea, not admitting to their inhumane acts which we can also see in their consistent use of the rising sun flag. In response to this, there are also extreme Koreans who are projecting hate towards a whole country, basically doing the same thing that Japan is in a way. Many scholars compare Germany and Japan and how they handled the aftermath of WW2 differently. For example, Germany has a Holocaust memorial in the center of their capital. It took a long time for Germany to recover and heal from the dark and inhumane acts during the Holocaust , but they are in a much better place through active efforts and education. I believe that although it is more complicated and difficult, Korean and Japanese relations can improve and slowly reach a point of healing and reconciliation, but the start will have to be an apology from Japan for actual Korean people to heal. It can only happen when the people truly want it and are ready for it.
