I would really love to hear how Bart’s mom grew up (childhood, the place she lived, parents, siblings if any, best memories, hard experiences growing up as a child and as a adult, how certain events shaped who she and how it affected her raising Bart’s)
I would 100% buy "A Bowl of Cucumbers" by Bart Kwan and listen to more podcast episodes with stories of momma Kwan
I actually would like to see a part 2, this was really insightful and interesting to listen to.
When he talks about his childhood and how asians are I'm always so amazed at how similar Latinos and Asians are
That's why they became Filipinos
Brown fellas😏 as I am both asian and Hispanic.
Bart I love listening to talk about history and the way you deliver it. You’re a great speaker.
Henneything She wants he could be a history teacher
Henneything She wants he’s married mam
I know! I kept thinking he should be a teacher because I started listening and being interested in history which I’m usually not but just because of his passion and how he delivered it!
If you have crazy parents, I feel like it's your duty to humanity is to not follow their footsteps and be crazy to your kids lol
How many youtube channels do you frickin comment on?!?!?!?!
I cant believe his mom was like the Japanese lost their way. I laughed so hard
I really enjoyed this podcast. Being Chinese myself, I completely understood what Bart was talking about.
Please continue this series.
To have a wife who appreciates every aspect of you. 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏
2:53
"You know how they call me the king of loop holes all the time?"
"Yeah I think that's just because you're chinese"
LMAO this killed me
Damn that was deep. Its amazing that bart wen through so much and came out amazing. I wonder why some people are more resilient than other people who experience the same amount of stress.
We used white rice in place of glue when I was younger 🥺😂
Can we acknowledge the fact that Geo looks HOT 😍🔥
Marlene Lopez SHE DOES🥰🥰🥰 I hope to be a hot momma like her one day LUL RIP
Yes please! This was so interesting and I can't wait to rewatch it with my teenage daughter and discuss the different family dynamics. I'd also be very interested in hearing about Geo's childhood as well.
I’m Chinese and I didn’t know all this shit! My grandpa is from Shandong too and it explains so much why he’s always dressed to the nines (button down, belt, slacks and dress shoes) 😁. I wish I had Bart as a history teacher hahaha
I love how open and honest Bart & Geo are with each other, it's something to aspire to...Bart's stories are fascinating BTW.
Geo's best insult to Bart today - "Your son is a Mexican, you trash bucket!",
I would totally read and buy 100% Bart Kwan's book, "A Bowl of Cucumbers". I hope you continue telling these stories. I totally relate to all those stories about getting beat and studying. Instead of finding a stranger beat me, my mom had her brothers and sisters beat me when I did things incorrectly. Once when I was elementary school age and was learning math over the summer, I didn't understand how to do a problem and my aunt yelled/slapped me multiple times in the face because of "how stupid" I was, that I got a bloody nose. And even when she saw I had a bloody nose, she dragged me in the bathroom yelling at me that I was so stupid that I made her make me have a bloody nose.
Yes, make more podcasts of this. And write a book. I want to hear more crazy Asian mom stories. Hearing about how Bart overcame his childhood traumas may inspire others to overcome theirs too.
I think people like Bart are funny and want people to smile and laugh so that they wouldn't feel sad the way he felt in the past, wanting someone to make young-him smile
I’m so glad people like Bart and Geo exist. For me, Bart lives an experience so close to mine and it’s such an amazing thing to know you are not alone. Thank you.
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE make a part 2 of this! Bart's stories are so fascinating. He is such a smart and disciplined man. It's interesting to see how the events in his life shaped him to be who he is today. Also, please write a book! I would buy it for sure!
THE PEOPLE NEED BOOK OF CUCUMBERS!!! 🙌
I am an American born Vietnamese. I 100% understand what you mean by "loop hole" people!!! Some people cannot follow rules/laws and always find ways to do what they want in a sketchy way!
Bart your stories inspire me... I just wanted to let you know, I hope you see it. You help me overcome all those little childhood traumas and see them as a way to become stronger. ♥️
I'll buy a book, the way you tell stories is so funny but also educational.
Totally agree with you guys that creativity can come from restrictions. When you have limited resources it allows you to be innovative. That’s why people in jail can make weapons out of standard items like turning a toothbrush into a shank lol.
I'm taiwanese-canadian, and omg Bart explained my whole childhood so hard.. including the "summer is time to get ahead"
PLEASE continue on this topic, this podcast has been one of the most interesting I've watched in a while.
would definitely read that book and listen to more episodes like this!!
"A bowl of cucumbers" would be such a good read
Bart being the outstanding person he is today and having that kind of traumatic upbringing actually makes me wanna bow down in respect for him... Wow, he was already such a great person in my eyes that I didn’t think I could gain any more respect for him but he just keeps surprising me...
Even physically speaking, Northern Chinese are almost identical to Korean people. Southern Chinese people look similar to Japanese people. Historically, Northern China and Korea were ruled by the same people as well. ie: Mongolians, the Manchus (technically Chinese)
Yes, please write your book!! I would definitely add it to my bookshelf.
i would love to read bart's book and listen to more of these podcasts!!! U GUYS R SO CUTE the type of relationship u guys have is overwhelming- you uplift and encourage each other so naturally and just out of habit, its something rare
AHH I remembered hearing this episode on my walk the other day on Spotify and couldn't stop cracking up LMAO Love your podcasts!!
Love you guys. Been watching since day 1.
I just wanna say thank you for everything and all the videos.
Stay safe guys x
How does Bart have no ego? He never Feels insulted. That's my goal, to be humble some kind of way But totally Alpha.
I wanna hear more stories!! Dang that’s crazy
so fun listening to these crazy asian mom stories😂😂😂
bobby had his mom on tigerbelly. PLEASE have one of your guys parents on the podcast someday. our parents are only here for an amount of time
For my pink counterparts. Oh Bart my brother! 😅😂🤣
Took my chinese history class in college, this is pretty accurate summarized in a podcast :D
Lmao Bart's mom sounds like my Filipino mom! I died when he said "the lashings on my body" ROFL!
More Bart stories porfavor...also would be cool to see Geo compare parts of her childhood with yours Bart :)
I would like to see a part two but i wish we could hear from your mom. I’m curious to see where her thoughts/actions came from, just reading behind all of this.
IRIQUOIS right here. One stereotype of native americans is that we all lived in teepees. My tribe did not. We lived in big longhouses. We also have clans and still recognized them today. Im wolf clan, so my whole family would live in one big longhouse. Wolf clan, bear clan, turtle, deer, eel and snipe clan. Thats how we knew who was our cousin and wouldnt end up marrying them. I still have to ask if another native american is my cousin before i developed a crush lol we have huge familys. I have about 70 cousins i know about. I still meet new cousins
Yessss-the Chinese breakdown is so real! Lol. Some Chinese people do think Hmong people are chinese. Hmong people even know that we historically came from China and that there are some Hmong people there to this day.
Part 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 please! and geo is looking good!
Yes I’m down to listen to a part 2-100. Thank you in advance.
We need the series!!!
32:14 Same experience as Geo. I loved being at my Chinese friends house in grade school his house was so peaceful and proper but like Bart says the Ghetto can come out so quick
i would love to hear all of barts stories with his mom.
Yo, this episode was a bit on the dark side but I can't say I didn't like it. A lot of ppl can relate to you, Bart...my dad also came from an intense background, leaving the Philippines during Marcos then trying to eke out a living in Ronald Reagan's America. He raised us hard to the point that I said fvck you and joined the army as soon as I could... now that I'm 33 I look back on the lessons that he tried to impart from the end of belt/ fist/ slap and I can confidently say that the wisdom was valid.. just not the delivery system. Anyway, write the book buddy.
Omg how geo kept interrupting bart I was like I wanna hear what bart is trying to say about his mom 😭😭
Please do more podcast about this, i find the similarities between asians and latinos so interesting as i can personally somewhat relate to bart as i grew up in a very mexican/catholic household. And i would definetely buy a book written by bart.
Yes pleasee!! Bowl of cucumbers! I would love more of these kind of podcasts😊
23:15 True 😆 my grade school best friend Chinese his father would do that while gardening
I would totally be interested in reading that. I love watching you guys- it’s hard for me to focus when it’s just voice overs, and that book sounds hella interesting!
Geo's makeup is fucking bomb, as per usual
Yooo that summer time shit hit way too fcking hard, asian kids never knew the meaning of summer
Book of cucumbers and another episode! And the cover should be glued with rice, where it’s all lumpy and thick. 😂 I hated using rice for glue as a kid
Bart’s mom should be an after school teacher for troubled kids
100% read the shit out of “A Bowl of Cucumbers”!
wow thank god geo and bart standing up for asians and especially us chinese folks. america/americans has been harsh on us lately
"Bowl of cucombers" for the win
“Got that Buddhist booty.” 😂😂😂
I'm down for more of the stories Bart! Let's get it
I did the rice glue thing back in my elementary days!
omg same.... for my 4th grade california mission project...my asian dad used rice to stick the Popsicle sticks together.
Please continue the story, I'd love to hear it.
18:30 A lot of Korean vocabulary that correlates to Chinese is said to be influenced from the Tang Dynasty when the dominant language was Minnan or what is now known as Hokkien. Compare the two side by side and there will be a handful of terms that sound similar in pronounciation. Other variants of modern day Minnan are Taiwanese, Teochew, Hainan, etc.
24:25 I think you're talking about Sun Yat Sen
bro the rice glue is too reall i did my 5th grade final project using that shit LOL
I've been taught recently that Native American culture is almost the same as the Asian culture
Dude, I'd buy the book
Please do another episode on your mom and her parenting style - its fascinating and tbh you're very hardworking so it wasn't all bad lol
Thx u 4 posting u 2 ❤❤love ur chemistry. Ur awesome Geo. 🇲🇽 baby
Yo shot Bart! Mean shout out for the bro Taika. #Kiwi
Yes! A Bowel of Cucumber 🥒 can’t wait for the book.
Very long conversation. I appreciate your honesty and candidness about your individual experience. However, it’s really important not to stereotype Asian people. We’re just as diverse as any other race 🙌💯
I wouldn’t read your book but if you make it an audiobook I would listen to it. If it was Bart reading it too, I would 100% buy the audiobook.
BART please write a book of all the weird events between you and your mom
Yes, I would love to hear more Bart!! I think it’s super interesting how people, including myself who have been through this sort of childhood trauma end up prevailing. I think it’s a really good balance to recognize that the experiences are fucked up, but that it gives you resilience and maybe more grit to persevere! I 100% made it to the Ivy League, because my Mexican mom was on me like a “tiger mom.” Still not HARVARD tho😂
We need a crazy asian mom series FS
This was fun to listen to. Def need a part 2
Wow i’m early for once, i’ve waited all night to say this... its 6:45 am here and i should be sleeping. So goodnight as i probably will fall asleep to this in like 10 min
Using steamed white rice & water to create glue... ahhh brings me back to my poor childhood too!
I would 100% read "A Bowl of Cucumber" O_O
Thanks for mentioning the hmong people @18:20 ❤️❤️❤️ it’s true! Hmong people come from a Chinese linage and are called the Miao. They fled south of China to the mountains of Vietnam due to conflict between newly arrived Han settlers increased during the 18th century under repressive economic and cultural reforms imposed by the Qing Dynasty.
GEOS skin do be glowing tho 😳😳😳
Yes please it’s helping me out since I’m working through my trauma as well.
Bart you should definitely write a book! I feel like I can relate to so many things you’ve said in today’s podcast!!
Book of cucumbers!!!!!!
My grandfather would beat me with a wooden paddle, briar thorns, hickory stick, leather belt etc.
Still to this day, I dont know what _"Stop acting cute"_ means.
I respected and love the guy though, Im starting to think I involuntary made silly faces.
Edit: Rest in peace Papa
I would read that book LOL. Bowl of Cucumbers
Yess part 2 please!!
I'd read the book and give it to everyone I know. Please write this book! I work in a bookstore lol I'll sell this like crazy
"They were 2 tall twins but only one was good at massage" LOL
Please write that book Bart, I think so many people would be interested in it!
Yes more episodes of this pls
I would buy that book for sure!!
Bart got some stories!
Bart you should make a script and sell it to netflix for a show or a movie! I’m sure you have already but just in case...
Bro I fuckin HATED Kumon. Like my mom was already strict as can ever be and it was like Kumon was my moms best friend.
I quit in desperate tears.
