The Worst Thing I've Ever Done in Japan 🍿 Patreon Exclusive Sneak Peek

Have you ever done something so dreadful you tried to scrub it from existence, only to realise it left an awkward six-month time jump in your book?

Yes? Then congratulations, you're in excellent company.

I'm back! And I come bearing a Patreon-exclusive sneak peek of the next Abroad in Japan video.

You might recall in the last post guys, I mentioned an episode in the works titled Life Lessons from 12 Years in Japan. It was a lovely, reflective piece. Or at least, that was the plan.

Instead, the video mutated into a dramatic retelling of the single worst thing I've done in Japan. A catastrophic moment that just so happened to occur at the most pivotal point in my career. For years, I’ve skilfully dodged this story out of sheer embarrassment (and also because I was waiting for the company involved to quietly drop dead which good news: it has).

I won’t spoil the episode here, but I will say this: the full story is coming soon, and it ties directly into a life lesson that I feature in the intro to the video.

Here’s that very four-minute extended intro from the video to whet your appetite. It might seem like a strange tangent, but trust me, it all makes sense in the end.

The video's currently being held up due to three pesky copyrighted tracks I’m waiting to clear. Once that’s sorted, the full video will be released publicly in the days ahead!

In other news, the charming Alex James from Blur swung by LOST bar last week! It was a pleasant surprise - he was over in Japan championing British food and drink and the powers that be deemed our bar a worthy stop. Most likely due to the absurd fact LOST is now the biggest dispensary of British cheese in Japan. His team filmed it so hopefully our chat will be out in the near future.



Tomorrow we're off for a Wacky Weekend shoot with Connor and Natsuki at a racetrack, that I'm very excited to share with you. More exciting photos and updates to follow in the days head folks!

But for now enjoy the preview of the Abroad in Japan video and have yourselves a wonderful Tuesday!

Great video Chris, haha. Feels like forever since we have seen new content from you.

Can’t wait to see this one in full! I have had many similar struggles with video. Before I was a full time game developer, I did game journalism, and the comments section was exhausting at the best of times. So much so that I begged the site to take the videos down years later. Perhaps I should have just embraced it, as looking back now I can laugh about it. Keep up the amazing work. I’ll be in Japan for three weeks starting Thursday and I’ll be sure to drop by Lost Bar in July during the summer heat!

I think I know what our man Natsuke would say to any of those commenters. (cue my favorite Natsuke drop) And hey, I hope the kind membership of this Patreon has done some good to your comment sanity, mate. 🥂

Ahh the hate comment videos. I think they were among the first I saw back in the day! I love how, rather than raking them over the coals - you always turn it into something humorous. Making the internet a better place, one dipshit at a time! <3
