As a Brit, I am embarrassed at the treatment of Jakub who is clearly a good bloke. Having a posh, stuck-up mummy's boy squealing "we would have died!" after being invited into his house is pathetic.
@@steven8hamiltonThe humiliation of a man who gives strangers a place to stay in his house for FREE. Sharing his details and cheating on him. But it's ok because "It's a joke bro"
Wasting food, mocking other cultures and turning your nose up at the idea of free basic shelter is possibly the most misguided way to “stand up” for the working class.
The disrespect towards the city’s goat tradition and calling Polish currency “monopoly money” was enough to rub me the wrong way. But then seeing the way you guys portrayed Jakob in this video was genuinely hurtful to a man kind enough to offer you a roof over your head for the night. Couch surfing is a great resource for travelers on a budget and definitely not known for being luxurious! And the food waste made me cringe as well, you could’ve just done the math instead of spoiling a whole trolley of food. Really not impressed this time
(goat as in goat clock, it is a famous cliche in Poland and a tourist attraction for ppl; it would be more spread out but they were doing construction work on the old town square, as pae fo renovations as they often do)
Oh well, I guess I should at least address it, as what's presented in the video is far from what happened in reality. The beauty of UA-cam, everyone... First things first, thank you to everyone for all the supporting comments (even if a couple were a little less so). To be honest, I'm quite surprised by this video myself, as one: that's not the deal we've had, two: they were actually quite friendly in person, we've had quite an enjoyable chat, including discussing some British panel shows I've been watching when they arrived (I would assume that's why the TV is blurred - for copyright reasons). However to set the facts straight: 1. I admit my flat was not in the best condition. They knew it. They've been warned beforehand, I had my hosting status as "maybe" partly because of that. And I did encourage them to try and find a different host, as mine was not truly ready for guests, but I would still be willing if I'm the only option. 2. I agreed to host them mostly because the feel of the whole piece was supposed to be (as it was described to me) showing the absurdity of British food prices (and presenting couchsurfing as a viable option for staying if you want to do it on the cheap). 3. As some have guessed, by they time they arrived at my place, it was already agreed they would not be staying - however the reason was never some fake "family emergency". I wonder how much of it is true, but the story that was given to me was that they managed to switch to a flight the same day (I was even given an exact hour of the flight, so it might have actually been true - not sure about the hostel scene though). 4. They did however film several variants of the story, one being "we found a better flight, but we could have stayed here, if we didn't" that I was told, and they even prepared a version where they pretended to go to sleep after all (which was the most prevailing variant for most of the time - one of the reasons why I don't really speak much on camera is not just because of how they cut it, but I just didn't want to take much part in the "fake stay" version - I'm neither good nor comfortable with lying). To be honest, if they presented either of those variants, I'd probably be fine and would have left the topic alone. But I'm not comfortable with the way it got presented in the end, as this is not what we agreed upon. Somehow I'm not surprised that in the end I didn't get a message from them when the video went up. So do with it what you like, but judging from the bit including me, I'm starting to wonder how much of the rest is also a fabrication.
So sorry you've been used like this. Even if your flat was not in the best condition, as you said, they HAVE been warned about it. And the fact that they didn't even message you before the video went up is something I can't fathom. I hope you never experience this kind of people in your life again, you seem to be such kind and genuine person, you did not deserve such treatment. And although I'm from Poland too I feel secondhand embarrassment for these 2 guys.

You put Jakub's real name and surname + showed where he lived only to show a few unfavorable shots of his house and leave, then made up an excuse and laughed about it in the video. You know he's 100% going to see this right. You could've just cut that portion of the video out if that's uncomfortable for you instead of making fun of the guy who offered you hospitality for free. That's not just being a dick, it's also doxing.
@@speedythey are probably referring to the north Korean embassy video, which didn't directly show personal info about the kids who were studying in the uk. But they kind showed enough for the north korean government to recognize the parents and possibly the kids.
I feel physically sick watching the part with Jakob. He seems so kind and sweet, and probably watches this too. Honestly if I put a bed up for the night for two strangers and went out and met them and did everything I could to make them comfortable seeing this would destroy me. NOT all of us are like this, the MAJORITY of brits love Poland and their culture 🇵🇱 ❤️ 🇬🇧
I don't know if the 'majority of brits love poland' or anything about it, they don't have to, it is just about not looking down on ppl and a place implicitly or explciitly/treating it with contempt It was not fully serious but there was a seeming element of not respecting others in general, and some level of looking down on ppl in a country, that may be related to current and historical views of it
Thank you for your kind words. It seems that not even these guys are like this, as the encounter was much different in reality... Seems it's just a face they put up for YT. Which is a shame, I feel it would be much better if they acted the way they acted on camera the same way they acted in person.
@@to5 I mean I live in the UK so I know that the majority of people are normal and kind. I'm curious what someone who's never been to the UK thinks of this.
As a polish guy living in UK can't believe what I just saw. These muppets making laugh of Jakob's home, but totally forgot how average British house look. How nasty and disgusting conditions they live in.

One of the reasons might be because of the specific room. The shelves are filled with japanese pornographic games. With all the offcolored stains there I would also be uncomfortable staying in that room.
I think I get the point of this video. You’re trying to point out that prices in the UK are so high that it’s actually cheaper to travel abroad. But all you’ve managed to point out is that Archie is just a pompous spoilt brat. And Josh is just as bad for going along with it. You two have publicly humiliated a man, not to mention showing his face, naming him and showing us his home. And that man was simply allowing people to use his home as shelter for no cost. You guys missed the mark here.

Full respect to Jakob it is such a kind thing to open your home and make yourself vulnerable to strangers so people you don't know can have a roof over their head.

Greetings from Poland my Brother! 😉 I was in Prague in october and I loved everything about the city and the country.. Ok, maybe except the prices, he he?
Insulting Polish tradition by calling it a sh***, calling Polish money 'monopoly money', insulting a man who opened his doors to strangers, and most of all... WHO do you have to be to make fun of an AMBULANCE hurryng up to save a human life?? Maybe your intent was to make people angry and get plenty of comments under your video, congratulations, you won this part
The more comments I read, the more convinced I am that this is meant to be a rage baiting content made by two insufferable men-children. What I can't understand is why would they willingly choose an image of lying, manipulating, immature ignorant. It baffles me.
As much as I don't mind joking when travelling about other countries/nationalities, the guys were straight-up disrespectful to everything and everyone they encountered when in Poland. Now I understand why people have such a wonderful opinion on the British lol.
That guy is Tory nob and the other guy is South African, we aren’t like this in real life, people get bad ideas of us when they see 19 year olds in the red light district, high as a kite drinking.
Jakob didn’t have any need for you fools to come through his home, but he invited you anyway and showed you hospitality. The only the thing of any value in this video is Jakob. Thank you Jakob.
As a Polish man living in the UK basically my entire life I was well excited to watch this video but turns out seeing u shit on every aspect of daily life there wasn't actually very enjoyable at all. Jakub seemed like a nice guy too, least you could've done was blur his face
Ośmieszyliście się na skalę światową. Gratuluję. Bilet w Poznaniu 2 złote? Hahaha, chciałabym. Żabka potraktowana jako Lidl? Widzę, że macie swoich widzów za idiotów.
Z biletem nie masz racji, jest bilet za 2 zł. Ale jest to bilet ulgowy i do 15 minut 🤣 Więc pewnie kupili po prostu najtańszy, bo jak widać najmądrzejsi nie są
No, a ja napisałam, że ulgowego mieć nie mogli. Skoro ulgowego mieć nie mogli to pisząc "Bilet w Poznaniu za 2 złote? Hahaha, chciałabym" wydawało mi się logicznym, że odnoszę się do ich sytuacji, ponieważ to ich film komentuje a skoro tak to odnoszę się do tego, że w Poznaniu osoba dorosła, bez zniżek nie kupi za tę cenę biletu.
For UK viewers, they manipulated the whole video, even the shopping was not "real" part of the food that they bought was purchased in the shop called żabka, you can see here 4:32 that is a different and much more expensive shop something like 7/11 than lidl that they were talking about
Sure, but can you really blame them…? If you’re gut says go, in a situation like this, just go. The room they paid for was cheap anyway, and the guys sofa bed was pretty dirty. Also, it’s Josh & Archie, this is not a serious video, not really, & food has always been cheaper in Poland anyway.
@@hunyesmith03 it’s not the fact that they left- that’s perfectly fine. it’s the way he was portrayed, the way they showed his face and name and where he lived. that’s not cool or safe.

All I can say is that whatever private school he went to judging by his accent, they didn't do a very good job of teaching him respect and consideration for other people.
what do you expect archie is basically the definition of upper class who will start whining if anything not rich and classy isn't put on a plate for him as it has his entire life
Archie comes across as entitled and ungrateful. His inability to try to pronounce the Polish currency and general snobbish attitude helps paint British people in a negative light to foreigners. Full respect to Jakob for sharing his home for free, what a shame you through his genuine hospitality back in his face. You post some interesting videos but this one falls far below the standard.
thanks for your kind words. the whole story is in my opinion even more messed up: ua-cam.com/video/VGpr2Kr2ZvQ/v-deo.html&lc=Ugz65kCIAHUEH9prDrJ4AaABAg
@@mareksicinski3726 it's quite easy honestly. A lot of Polish words are hard for British people, we struggle to roll Rs and sounds like szcz are very hard to pronounce, but zloty is easy.
Some fun facts and clarifications: 1. Jakub did comment on this video. Search for the nickname “arakell” in the comments, upvote this comment so people can easily find it when they sort from popular. 2. What’s up with the goats in Poznan? “When the Poznan Town Hall was being expanded in 1551, the city councillors commissioned the construction of the clock to the master Bartlomiej. On the day of the presentation, a crowd of townspeople gathered around the town hall, especially since the ceremony was to be graced by the presence of the voivode and his wife. For this occasion, a feast was organised, with the main dish being a roe deed haunch. Unfortunately, during the roasting, the haunch slipped from the spit into the fire. Desperate, the master cook Mikolaj sent his assistant Pietrek to the butcher’s for new meat for roasting. After unsuccessful searches, the boy reached the city walls, where he noticed two small white goats, grazing in the meadows by the Warta river. Without much thought, as time was of essence, he hurried them to town hall. However, in the kitchen, as soon as they were released from the leash, clever little goats escaped from the cooks and ran up the stairs straight to the town hall clock tower, where they jumped onto the cornice right above the new clock. When the voivode arrived at the town hall, an unusual sight met the eyes of the onlookers. Two small white goats were happily butting heads on the clock tower. The whole story amused the voivode so much that he pardoned the cook for the theft. However, he instructed Master Bartlomiej to enrich the clock mechanism with the prancing little goats as a memento of this event”. Goats are the symbol of Poznan, we have statues of them, mural paintings, plushies. Just a part of our tradition now. This may be not a story about blood, war and heroism, but it’s just a part of our culture, and we love our goats. 3. Poznan is not a big city, you can easily walk from one end to another in about two hours. Walking around the center and complaining how bad your legs hurt? C’mon, even with that huge grocery bag you could just use google maps and it’s a 20 minutes walk at most, with plenty of benches to rest on on your way.
Następnym razem jak tak zrobicie ktoś po prostu może wam dać po mordzie zamiast pisać komentarze w intrenecie, pamiętajcie też że sporo Polaków mieszka w UK
Very disappointing treatment of the man that opened his home to you. As others have said, you were aware of what you were getting into. Feeling uncomfortable staying there is fine, but to frame the man in such poor light and mock his living situation is genuinely repulsive.
That was so rude to the polish man who let you stay at his for free. Going inside and filming his home + his face + his name and profile, talking about him being sketchy + shitting on his country. Wtf... Not only is this humiliating someone who was just being kind, you also just wasted his time. That man owed nothing to you. Unsubscribed
Don't forget Archie claiming that leaving Jakub was a matter of "staying alive", as though the guy was going to murder them in their sleep or something.
Small correction, as someone living in Poznan too: it WOULD be a great place to live if it wasn't for the constant construction (everything being renovated and modernized at once, at that). But I guess we have our city's mayor and Town Hall's administrative staff to thank for that. Otherwise I agree, the people themselves are alright.
Well, the money aspect was educative, but the real lesson this video is giving us is the answer to a question "why British visitors to Poland are generally perceived by locals as utter, obnoxious wankers". If that was a real goal of this video then congratulations, job well done!
@@pensychan8053 I literally don't see what was wrong about that room either, apart from it being a little cluttered? It didn't look like it was dirty or anything, just a spare room somebody was nice enough to let you sleep in for a night
As a Pole 🇵🇱 the topic of the film could be good, but due to the constant ridicule/complaining about our country, it only gives me the feeling that you wanted to humiliate us, or maybe just show this innate British arrogance.
It doesn't. Most Brits embrace Polish people and their culture and would be grateful for the man's noble hospitality unlike these two pair of entitled snobby pr*icks. We are richer for having Polish, Romanian and Bulgarian people in our county contributing to our society. Please do not let these snobs make us all look bad, we are not all utter entitled c*nts.
Please don't count this as an accurate example of us my friend. This does not reflect the average good brit in the slightest, I'm embarrassed watching this
The guys in this video are in the top 0.1% wealthiest living in the UK, they don't represent any of us. Their lives have been served to them on a silver platter with no struggle, no real world experience, it's people like this who often make us ashamed to be British. Love to Poland from GB.
As a Pole i have to applaud those two fine English gentleman, you truly showed how to respect other cultures & painted Poland & it's people in the best light possible. It was incredibly kind of you to let yourself down to Jakub's couch level & barely insult him in the process. The fact that you included the city hall of Poznan for almost a minute & ur wholesome words were inspiring. Going to other countries only to save money is also my passion but i usually do this in countries where they have darker skin... In those countries they are much more understanding & never get offended. You just proved that the British are indeed the most cultured people in history & by far enjoy the worlds best cuisine. Who doesn't want peas & beans for breakfast? What a shame ur no longer in the EU, please visit Poland again....
What was wrong with his apartment? :D Just a dude being a dude, playing videogames and very likely nerd enough to even know Josh and Archie from YT... People who share their apartments for free are not usually the posh-kind, no one can expect luxurious hotel from couchsurfing. And to be fair, you were the weird ones with a plastic bag full of LIDL :D

I feel SO bad for the couch surfing guy! He probably planned his day around you, probably excited to see you after checking out your videos. At least you could have stayed back for some conversations :(
I get why you wouldn’t want to stay somewhere you’re uncomfortable, that’s fair. But as the content creators you have the ability to tell the story in any way you want to, yet you chose the negative angle where you just complained about someone’s house and published it on the internet, probably making them quite embarrassed. There were so many other ways you could have told that part but this was not cool.
I think they could have handled the situation better too. Saying it's "absolutely brilliant" to his face and then walking out the room and giggling about how you can't stay in there is really immature and disrespectful, especially after someone has invited you to stay in their home for free. Maybe a few of Archie's true colours shone through in this video.
Now imagine that a Pole comes to London and the first thing he says when he sees Big Ben is "it's just a tower with some shitty clock". You don't know the historical background of Poland, or these goats, and you call it a piece of shit, like does this say about you?
What was even wrong with Jakub's place? Ok it was cluttered but saying you wouldn't have survived was ridiculous. That sweet and generous man trusted complete strangers to enter his home and sleep for no charge. So rude and disrespectful to his kindness and trust in you. Got to wonder what bubble you grew up in to think clutter will kill you. Appalling, nasty behaviour.
Honestly, 99% of British people would have been grateful for the hospitality and had a good evening with the kind gentleman. I've been to Poland many times and it's great. I just hope some of the disrespect was due to the editing.

There is also an imperial castle in Poznań. It is strange that such distinguished guests were not offered free accommodation there. Along with that bag of ruined food.
Shame, the dungeon part of the castle is no loger in use. Pity. But in the oldest part of the city there are the foundations of the old palatium. Certainly, such distinguished guests will not despise the former chamber of the first ruler of Poland and his son - the first king. Wow, a room with a view of the oldest cathedral, fabulously illuminated. And all this for free!
No one cares about an out of touch social recluse weebs opinion on generalizing a whole group of people, thanks. I find it hard to believe you've never seen, watched or talked to an English person before. Massive English youtubers called sidemen recently uploaded plane ticket video showing Poland in a positive light. Also you're being hypocritical, you're showing the same behaviors as these two guys. These guys generalized this guy and Poland while you generalize English people.
I really like your videos most of the time gentlemen, but you did kinda come across as dicks in this one. I'm really hoping against hope that it was a "Bit" with Jakub in on and part of the joke, however, if it was, that's some of the most convincing acting I've ever seen. Not sure I buy that though. you might've been going for the good old "Jeremy Clarkson spoiled moaning old fart" routine, but honestly there's a fine line between funny and just insulting, and this kinda stamped all over it. Please do better. Much obliged -Dan

Yikes. Not a great to be honest, especially on Archie's part. I understand the sentiment that was meant to come from this video, but it was poorly executed. Roaming around Poland and giving off "this is shit" energy isn't a great look. And then embarrassing a man who opened up his home to you is poor taste. I get that this is all probably a bit and a joke, but it's just a bit of a shitty thing to do. I'm usually a fan of your videos, but this one is a miss.
@@jamidodger6401 Yeah, generalizing is not great, I really do believe there are nice people from different countries. It is just not these two individuals
I used to work at a bar, there was no worse feeling than when a group of British tourists would come in… straight away they’d harass my college, throwing up, everything. Then I travelled to England thinking if this is how they act it must be a wonderful place, I went to liverpool to watch football and I have never seen a more disgusting country devoid of culture. Their culture is to drink beer all night and fight and harass people. Each summer they should be banned from EU. In Cyprus they are big problem.
As a Brit I would like to formally apologise for the actions of achie th Tory. We try our best not to associate with them. However based of this video alone your point is completely valid 🫡
I was born and raised in Poznan but my boyfriend is Brit, and I was so happy to show him my culture, traditions and beloved city. It was a great feeling to see him enjoying and liking everything about it… I’m not saying u have to love everything about it but you should still act with respect especially to a person that was willing to have you under his roof…all you did was just humiliating yourself and as the video went viral lots of people will see how disgusting and disrespectful you both are… you should be soo ashamed of your behavior…
i have always had bad vibes from him from when he started to appear on this channel. i've tried to like him, but he plays up to the 'posh-tory-boy-wanker' role a little too well for my liking.
I get being a bit uncomfortable and having second thoughts about staying at a person's home, but to frame the guy as a serial killer that you needed escape from 'in the interest of staying alive' was a bit of a dick move.
They probably told him they are UA-camrs even before coming to Poland, and you can see Jakub here in the comments (he’s responding to people, his nickname starts with “a”), he said the guys were nice in person but in the video they are acting way worse.
@@drinkinyawnin thanks for the comment. Yes, I did know they're youtubers, but I didn't know their channel (until this video blew up). It's just that the way it was presented in the end was not what we agreed upon
Humour is always good when it's not at the expense of others or their kindness. Jakub literally opened his home to you and you just fobbed him off. How very British of you.

Also great, witty, peak british humour calling an ambulance rushing to rescue someone's life cAmP while acting like an idiot. Not going to mention shouting in shop and not bluring Cashier's face 👍👍👍 You sure are great people!!
That guy was a legend for offering a large part of his flat to them for zero cost, all Archie did was just complain about something which really wasn't bad at all, some people would kill to spend the night there

These two are acting how the British imagine Americans are 24/7. Ever since the Catholic church video I felt iffy about how you two deal with people. This just proved it. That poor man.
Not a good look in this one lads. Also Can we appreciate how beautiful the old town of Poznan looks like? As it is extremely underappreciated in the video.
It was very hard to watch. I'm glad I don't have friends from the UK. I lived there for several years and unfortunately I also have similar experiences with young British people. Ignorance and arrogance - a difficult mix to endure if you want to be polite towards people. Jakob- you probably didn't plan to make a career on UA-cam, but you became one because of these morons. You are the only positive character in this movie. ❤️
Archie's conduct is nothing short of an embarrassment, and on behalf of the British people, I extend my apologies to the Polish community. His actions exemplify societal shortcomings, including a glaring lack of civility, culture, refinement, and a disconnection from global realities. Perhaps for his next endeavour, one could consider sending him to a less privileged nation without financial resources, where his lack of intelligence and imprudence would undoubtedly be on full display.
I’ve been an avid viewer of this channel since the early days and have always thought the videos you both released were genius. On the contrary, this one made me feel actually quite sad. The hospitality shown to you by Jacub was from the heart and couch surfing hosts are renowned for their kindness. This video paints Archie in such a bad light as a condescending, stuck up brat. It’s put me off the channel.
You guys have such good content and great ideas yet it's completely killed in this particular instance by Archie being an intolerable jerk, such a shame, feel for Jakob and hope he doesn't see this
I'm form Poznań and trust me, there is much more to our city than just being "the cheapest place to go in Europe". But obviously you need to be a more cultured person that both of you are to appreciate and find that. You embarassed yourself completely.

There are plenty of ways to execute an outside-the-box video concept without punching down on someone trying to do a nice thing. Archie is a prat and Josh comes across as the lackey all too happy to play along. Take some Tylenol for the headache this will cause in the morning.
watching this as a polish person makes me flatout pissed, i have never heard somebody call my currency "monopoly money"( 4:01 ), making fun of the Poznań culture ( 3:35 ) and so on.
This whole video just stinks of negativity, rudeness and nasty vibes. Enjoyed your past videos but this just isn't it. Plus you doxed Jakub's full name and his surroundings. Unsubscribing
As a Brit, I am embarrassed at the treatment of Jakub who is clearly a good bloke. Having a posh, stuck-up mummy's boy squealing "we would have died!" after being invited into his house is pathetic.
It's a joke, Jesus 🤦🤣

Wasting food, mocking other cultures and turning your nose up at the idea of free basic shelter is possibly the most misguided way to “stand up” for the working class.
I expect nothing else from these types of people, their videos aren't 'highlighting' problems they're just using it for content
What do you expect from a pair of Tory’s
I, too dislike fun
Ever since Archie came on it's been the same thing. Wish Josh kept his channel.
you forgot to add doxing the new YT trend.
The disrespect towards the city’s goat tradition and calling Polish currency “monopoly money” was enough to rub me the wrong way. But then seeing the way you guys portrayed Jakob in this video was genuinely hurtful to a man kind enough to offer you a roof over your head for the night. Couch surfing is a great resource for travelers on a budget and definitely not known for being luxurious! And the food waste made me cringe as well, you could’ve just done the math instead of spoiling a whole trolley of food. Really not impressed this time
(goat as in goat clock, it is a famous cliche in Poland and a tourist attraction for ppl; it would be more spread out but they were doing construction work on the old town square, as pae fo renovations as they often do)

To be fair waiting for metal contraption in the shape of goats to hit each other is very dumb. I don't think that's disrespectful
Typical young english attitude
@@unskeptable Most sensible comment I've read on here 🤣
Oh well, I guess I should at least address it, as what's presented in the video is far from what happened in reality. The beauty of UA-cam, everyone...
First things first, thank you to everyone for all the supporting comments (even if a couple were a little less so).
To be honest, I'm quite surprised by this video myself, as one: that's not the deal we've had, two: they were actually quite friendly in person, we've had quite an enjoyable chat, including discussing some British panel shows I've been watching when they arrived (I would assume that's why the TV is blurred - for copyright reasons).
However to set the facts straight:
1. I admit my flat was not in the best condition. They knew it. They've been warned beforehand, I had my hosting status as "maybe" partly because of that. And I did encourage them to try and find a different host, as mine was not truly ready for guests, but I would still be willing if I'm the only option.
2. I agreed to host them mostly because the feel of the whole piece was supposed to be (as it was described to me) showing the absurdity of British food prices (and presenting couchsurfing as a viable option for staying if you want to do it on the cheap).
3. As some have guessed, by they time they arrived at my place, it was already agreed they would not be staying - however the reason was never some fake "family emergency". I wonder how much of it is true, but the story that was given to me was that they managed to switch to a flight the same day (I was even given an exact hour of the flight, so it might have actually been true - not sure about the hostel scene though).
4. They did however film several variants of the story, one being "we found a better flight, but we could have stayed here, if we didn't" that I was told, and they even prepared a version where they pretended to go to sleep after all (which was the most prevailing variant for most of the time - one of the reasons why I don't really speak much on camera is not just because of how they cut it, but I just didn't want to take much part in the "fake stay" version - I'm neither good nor comfortable with lying).
To be honest, if they presented either of those variants, I'd probably be fine and would have left the topic alone. But I'm not comfortable with the way it got presented in the end, as this is not what we agreed upon. Somehow I'm not surprised that in the end I didn't get a message from them when the video went up.
So do with it what you like, but judging from the bit including me, I'm starting to wonder how much of the rest is also a fabrication.
Boost this mans comment
So sorry you've been used like this. Even if your flat was not in the best condition, as you said, they HAVE been warned about it. And the fact that they didn't even message you before the video went up is something I can't fathom. I hope you never experience this kind of people in your life again, you seem to be such kind and genuine person, you did not deserve such treatment. And although I'm from Poland too I feel secondhand embarrassment for these 2 guys.

You put Jakub's real name and surname + showed where he lived only to show a few unfavorable shots of his house and leave, then made up an excuse and laughed about it in the video. You know he's 100% going to see this right. You could've just cut that portion of the video out if that's uncomfortable for you instead of making fun of the guy who offered you hospitality for free. That's not just being a dick, it's also doxing.

I don't know if the 'majority of brits love poland' or anything about it, they don't have to, it is just about not looking down on ppl and a place implicitly or explciitly/treating it with contempt
It was not fully serious but there was a seeming element of not respecting others in general, and some level of looking down on ppl in a country, that may be related to current and historical views of it

Not only his face, but also inside his home. They could have just said to the camera they decided against staying without the humiliation.

A lot of Polish words are hard for British people, we struggle to roll Rs and sounds like szcz are very hard to pronounce, but zloty is easy.
Some fun facts and clarifications:
1. Jakub did comment on this video. Search for the nickname “arakell” in the comments, upvote this comment so people can easily find it when they sort from popular.
2. What’s up with the goats in Poznan? “When the Poznan Town Hall was being expanded in 1551, the city councillors commissioned the construction of the clock to the master Bartlomiej. On the day of the presentation, a crowd of townspeople gathered around the town hall, especially since the ceremony was to be graced by the presence of the voivode and his wife. For this occasion, a feast was organised, with the main dish being a roe deed haunch. Unfortunately, during the roasting, the haunch slipped from the spit into the fire. Desperate, the master cook Mikolaj sent his assistant Pietrek to the butcher’s for new meat for roasting. After unsuccessful searches, the boy reached the city walls, where he noticed two small white goats, grazing in the meadows by the Warta river. Without much thought, as time was of essence, he hurried them to town hall. However, in the kitchen, as soon as they were released from the leash, clever little goats escaped from the cooks and ran up the stairs straight to the town hall clock tower, where they jumped onto the cornice right above the new clock. When the voivode arrived at the town hall, an unusual sight met the eyes of the onlookers. Two small white goats were happily butting heads on the clock tower. The whole story amused the voivode so much that he pardoned the cook for the theft. However, he instructed Master Bartlomiej to enrich the clock mechanism with the prancing little goats as a memento of this event”. Goats are the symbol of Poznan, we have statues of them, mural paintings, plushies. Just a part of our tradition now. This may be not a story about blood, war and heroism, but it’s just a part of our culture, and we love our goats.
3. Poznan is not a big city, you can easily walk from one end to another in about two hours. Walking around the center and complaining how bad your legs hurt? C’mon, even with that huge grocery bag you could just use google maps and it’s a 20 minutes walk at most, with plenty of benches to rest on on your way.

Very disappointing treatment of the man that opened his home to you. As others have said, you were aware of what you were getting into. Feeling uncomfortable staying there is fine, but to frame the man in such poor light and mock his living situation is genuinely repulsive.
And I’ve been a longtime supporter of this channel. Not a great look rn.
That was so rude to the polish man who let you stay at his for free.
Going inside and filming his home + his face + his name and profile, talking about him being sketchy + shitting on his country. Wtf...
Not only is this humiliating someone who was just being kind, you also just wasted his time. That man owed nothing to you.

Small correction, as someone living in Poznan too: it WOULD be a great place to live if it wasn't for the constant construction (everything being renovated and modernized at once, at that).

Kuba, tszymaj sie facet. Osoby takie jak ty daja mi dume byciem polakiem. Archie & Josh, just appologise guys. This is embarrasing.
Remember that this people with monopoly money, fought for you independence :)
I'm so glad people are grilling you in the comments, you deserve it 100%
I don't remember the last time I actually bothered to give a video a dislike. Treating someone like that is not okay
I feel SO bad for the couch surfing guy! He probably planned his day around you, probably excited to see you after checking out your videos. At least you could have stayed back for some conversations :(
Also they basically committed a serious crime - they doxed his private information. Apart of treating him bad.
wow i finally understood why people hate the british thanks guys :)
I have never seen someone so ungrateful before, that man offered you a place to stay FOR FREE, did you expect a 5-star hotel? The disrespect
I get why you wouldn’t want to stay somewhere you’re uncomfortable, that’s fair. But as the content creators you have the ability to tell the story in any way you want to, yet you chose the negative angle where you just complained about someone’s house and published it on the internet, probably making them quite embarrassed. There were so many other ways you could have told that part but this was not cool.
I think they could have handled the situation better too. Saying it's "absolutely brilliant" to his face and then walking out the room and giggling about how you can't stay in there is really immature and disrespectful, especially after someone has invited you to stay in their home for free. Maybe a few of Archie's true colours shone through in this video.
Those are rich kids that never worked a real job. Not surprising
@@billylardner Not only that but Archie pretending like he had to get out for the sake of "staying alive" was a bit extreme.
Didn't ask.
@@wpprrzno one cares about you
Im asked
crazy how annoying and mean archie was throughout the video, really hateable guy it seems
You're only just realising this?
He was so entitled and snobby in this video. Acted like a child honestly. What did he expect? A 5 star hotel
comment about that goat tradition thing was also super disrespectful
Main character syndrome
@@felix9955 yeah, just absolutely zero empathy, really awful to see
Now imagine that a Pole comes to London and the first thing he says when he sees Big Ben is "it's just a tower with some shitty clock". You don't know the historical background of Poland, or these goats, and you call it a piece of shit, like does this say about you?
Well done Britain for raising these two...if there are more of you like them, you are doomed❤
What was even wrong with Jakub's place? Ok it was cluttered but saying you wouldn't have survived was ridiculous. That sweet and generous man trusted complete strangers to enter his home and sleep for no charge. So rude and disrespectful to his kindness and trust in you. Got to wonder what bubble you grew up in to think clutter will kill you. Appalling, nasty behaviour.
Mocking the couch surfing host like this is fucked.
Yeah fr, that guy offered a significant portion of his flat for 0 cost and Archie just complained about it.
archie doesn't understand solidarity and mutual aid, lack of honour there
As a Polish person , I need therapy after watching an australian and an eton pleb diss us like that
Honestly, 99% of British people would have been grateful for the hospitality and had a good evening with the kind gentleman. I've been to Poland many times and it's great. I just hope some of the disrespect was due to the editing.
Joshua is a South African
@@xaviwna even worse to be honest lol
*South African
Eton Pleb 🤣
1,47 mln subskrybcji pytam z jakiego powodu, ludzie powinni je stracić, może brak kasy pomoże im inaczej spojrzeć na świat, odklejone towarzystwo bez kultury, moralności i zasad.
Do you know that in Poland it is illegal to publicly someone's surname and place of residence?
In UK also
There is also an imperial castle in Poznań. It is strange that such distinguished guests were not offered free accommodation there. Along with that bag of ruined food.
😂
🤠
I'm afraid the dungeon part of the castle is no longer in use.
Shame, the dungeon part of the castle is no loger in use. Pity. But in the oldest part of the city there are the foundations of the old palatium. Certainly, such distinguished guests will not despise the former chamber of the first ruler of Poland and his son - the first king. Wow, a room with a view of the oldest cathedral, fabulously illuminated. And all this for free!
We don’t get tourists where I live, and I’ve always wondered why the English were commonly hated. I’ve experienced it for myself from this vid.
No one cares about an out of touch social recluse weebs opinion on generalizing a whole group of people, thanks. I find it hard to believe you've never seen, watched or talked to an English person before. Massive English youtubers called sidemen recently uploaded plane ticket video showing Poland in a positive light. Also you're being hypocritical, you're showing the same behaviors as these two guys. These guys generalized this guy and Poland while you generalize English people.
I really like your videos most of the time gentlemen, but you did kinda come across as dicks in this one. I'm really hoping against hope that it was a "Bit" with Jakub in on and part of the joke, however, if it was, that's some of the most convincing acting I've ever seen. Not sure I buy that though. you might've been going for the good old "Jeremy Clarkson spoiled moaning old fart" routine, but honestly there's a fine line between funny and just insulting, and this kinda stamped all over it. Please do better. Much obliged -Dan
O kurwa, wielki i bogaty pan brytol (specjalnie z małej) pojechał do biednego, brzydkiego i taniego kraju, żeby sobie się pośmiać. Do jasnej cholery. Gdybyście ten hajs zarobili chociaż w sposób inny niż nagrywanie pranków dla zjebów lub poniżania innych kultur ze względu na to, że ich nie znacie (XD), wtedy może bym w jakimś małym stopniu was zrozumiał.
Ten wysoki rucha tego kurdupla w srake
brytolom jedyne co wyszło to to podbijanie innych kultur i czerpanie z tego korzyści. Ich mentalność się nie zmieniła.
Dla was nie będe pisał po Angielsku, by pokazać jaki ze mnie "RURAL POLE". Naprawdę nie wyobrażam sobie poleiceć do innego kraju i krytykować jego kulturę bez nawet jej poznania. Już pomijając to, że dostaliście dosłownie mieszaknie za darmo, a i tak się naśmiewaliście. Tak to jest jak kasa do łba dobije
niby tak, ale myślę, że w tym wypadku nawet pieniądze już nie miały tam czego zepsuć - skoro i tak nic tam nie było, ani odrobiny rozumu. Dwa rozpuszczone, ignoranckie gówniaki.
On behalf of us British I apologise for the short arrogant one. Takeaway his passport to stop any further embarrassment to the country.
Kinda unenjoyable, unfunny, and annoying how grumpy Archie is about literally everything in this video.
Theres a funny grumpy and a grumpy that your mildly depressing and annoying coworker has
Yikes. Not a great to be honest, especially on Archie's part. I understand the sentiment that was meant to come from this video, but it was poorly executed. Roaming around Poland and giving off "this is shit" energy isn't a great look. And then embarrassing a man who opened up his home to you is poor taste. I get that this is all probably a bit and a joke, but it's just a bit of a shitty thing to do. I'm usually a fan of your videos, but this one is a miss.
Cost of living in central/eastern Europe is lower and Ryanair is a low cost airline. What a discovery !
Now go to Norway or Switzerland.
Soon Brits won't be able to afford even Poland. Their country goes down faster than titanic.
Please, don't leave your lonely island ever again
So you went to a different country with a different cost of living and were surprised the cost of living was different? Christ alive…
Muszę przyznać, że dobrze, że was już nie ma w UE
We aren’t all like that. I personally love Poland as a Brit and can’t wait to see it. These two are an embarrassment to us❤
Szczerze- dla mnie też 👍
@@jamidodger6401 Wyjebane mam w was mozecie wypierdalac z Polski i szczegolnie z Krakowa ;)
Jebac UE, ściek dla naiwniakow.
@@jamidodger6401 Yeah, generalizing is not great, I really do believe there are nice people from different countries. It is just not these two individuals
After watching this I changed my mind about Brexit. It's actually wonderful that you guys have left EU😂
I used to work at a bar, there was no worse feeling than when a group of British tourists would come in… straight away they’d harass my college, throwing up, everything. Then I travelled to England thinking if this is how they act it must be a wonderful place, I went to liverpool to watch football and I have never seen a more disgusting country devoid of culture. Their culture is to drink beer all night and fight and harass people. Each summer they should be banned from EU. In Cyprus they are big problem.
As a Brit I would like to formally apologise for the actions of achie th Tory. We try our best not to associate with them. However based of this video alone your point is completely valid 🫡
the Brits:
* laughing at two mechanical billy goats *
also the Brits:
* look at that big clock we have :3 *
pure dumb ignorance
I was born and raised in Poznan but my boyfriend is Brit, and I was so happy to show him my culture, traditions and beloved city. It was a great feeling to see him enjoying and liking everything about it… I’m not saying u have to love everything about it but you should still act with respect especially to a person that was willing to have you under his roof…all you did was just humiliating yourself and as the video went viral lots of people will see how disgusting and disrespectful you both are… you should be soo ashamed of your behavior…
Archie seems like a bit of a prat, honestly.
i have always had bad vibes from him from when he started to appear on this channel. i've tried to like him, but he plays up to the 'posh-tory-boy-wanker' role a little too well for my liking.
@@userone5855 If he's acting, he should go to Hollywood. There's a future there for him. I suspect he's just a jerk though.
i think the whole comment section agrees
@@Braktooth I agree.
i really dont like archie at all tbh
I get being a bit uncomfortable and having second thoughts about staying at a person's home, but to frame the guy as a serial killer that you needed escape from 'in the interest of staying alive' was a bit of a dick move.
Yeah lads the way you treated Jakub really wasnt the one. Publicly embarassing him and laughing at his home, and not even blurring out his face
You can't record people with out permission In Poland because you can Go to court if the person feels you use his face with out asking .
They probably told him they are UA-camrs even before coming to Poland, and you can see Jakub here in the comments (he’s responding to people, his nickname starts with “a”), he said the guys were nice in person but in the video they are acting way worse.
@@drinkinyawnin thanks for the comment. Yes, I did know they're youtubers, but I didn't know their channel (until this video blew up). It's just that the way it was presented in the end was not what we agreed upon
It's not 2 zł... they got the cheapest ticket with the student discount, so they actually could have been fined if caught.
I know Jakub myself, I've worked with him and he's a great lad!
Humour is always good when it's not at the expense of others or their kindness. Jakub literally opened his home to you and you just fobbed him off. How very British of you.
Calling our currency "monopoly money" was a bit too much to me. Instant dislike :)
respect other cultures, respect poland, respect other people
Use me as a ‘go back and apologise to Jakob‘ button
you have balls. And just as you insulted Jacob publicly, apologize to Jacob publicly. Do it, maybe you will save face
I'd say:,, Two idiots from the UK, who try to be funny."
Good job guys!!! You doxxed and made fun of guy who was nice enough to give you FREE place to stay, istead idk - talking about his life in poland, getting to know him. Also great, witty, peak british humour calling an ambulance rushing to rescue someone's life cAmP while acting like an idiot. Not going to mention shouting in shop and not bluring Cashier's face 👍👍👍 You sure are great people!!
Low key I thought they came across ungrateful in this. That poor bloke who offered his sofa
That guy was a legend for offering a large part of his flat to them for zero cost, all Archie did was just complain about something which really wasn't bad at all, some people would kill to spend the night there
@@tobysimmonds487 Dude went on to complain about the linen in the hostel and whined about wanting to get room service, his privilege was definitely showing in this vid.
@@mmgmagicAnd that was so stupid?? You want a better service, then just pay more. There's lots of good hotels in Poznań! They're just cheap and rude instead😂
These two are acting how the British imagine Americans are 24/7.
Ever since the Catholic church video I felt iffy about how you two deal with people. This just proved it. That poor man.
Not a good look in this one lads. Also Can we appreciate how beautiful the old town of Poznan looks like? As it is extremely underappreciated in the video.
Right?? I was thinking the same thing. It's a beautiful town with great architecture. Could have done this video SOO different.
it seems pretty obvious they chose the one place that's currently undergoing quite extensive renovation to make it look worse...
@@arakell woooahhh... are you the guy?
@@mikepwillis88 haha, yeah, i am the guy :)
@@arakell I'm really sorry they edited the video the way they did man. That was very sh***y of them.
Przynajmniej nie musimy się zastanawiać, który kran odkręcić, żeby leciała przyjemnie ciepła woda.
It was very hard to watch. I'm glad I don't have friends from the UK. I lived there for several years and unfortunately I also have similar experiences with young British people. Ignorance and arrogance - a difficult mix to endure if you want to be polite towards people.
Jakob- you probably didn't plan to make a career on UA-cam, but you became one because of these morons. You are the only positive character in this movie. ❤️
Archie's conduct is nothing short of an embarrassment, and on behalf of the British people, I extend my apologies to the Polish community. His actions exemplify societal shortcomings, including a glaring lack of civility, culture, refinement, and a disconnection from global realities. Perhaps for his next endeavour, one could consider sending him to a less privileged nation without financial resources, where his lack of intelligence and imprudence would undoubtedly be on full display.
Which one is Archie?
@@zakonnicagryziedzieci9036who cares
I’ve been an avid viewer of this channel since the early days and have always thought the videos you both released were genius. On the contrary, this one made me feel actually quite sad. The hospitality shown to you by Jacub was from the heart and couch surfing hosts are renowned for their kindness. This video paints Archie in such a bad light as a condescending, stuck up brat. It’s put me off the channel.
You guys have such good content and great ideas yet it's completely killed in this particular instance by Archie being an intolerable jerk, such a shame, feel for Jakob and hope he doesn't see this
He just couldn't stand it that Poland is actually nice, clean country. Jealous. That's it.
He saw.
he saw this video even left a comment talking abt their backstage behaviour his name is arakell btw
Too late.
Przykro patrzeć na takie marnowanie jedzenia dla zabawy i brak szacunku dla kogoś kto chciał bezinteresownie pomóc. Pozdrowienia z Poznania
I'm form Poznań and trust me, there is much more to our city than just being "the cheapest place to go in Europe". But obviously you need to be a more cultured person that both of you are to appreciate and find that. You embarassed yourself completely.
mi się wydaję, że wybrali to miasto, ponieważ obecnie jest najbardziej rozkopane w Polsce, żeby pokazać jaka polska jest beee. Na początku myślałam, że to przypadek ale im dalej w las tym stwierdziłam, że zabieg był celowy
@@Nid15 wybrali bo lot był najtańszy XD ot cała filozofia
The way you treated Jakub left me with a bad taste in my mouth, poor guy was just being nice, and was humiliated for no reason
A huge waste of food and awful attitude towards the couch surfing host and the whole country and their culture
There are plenty of ways to execute an outside-the-box video concept without punching down on someone trying to do a nice thing. Archie is a prat and Josh comes across as the lackey all too happy to play along.
Take some Tylenol for the headache this will cause in the morning.
hope you get sued for revealing personal data of a guy that wanted to help you out
watching this as a polish person makes me flatout pissed, i have never heard somebody call my currency "monopoly money"( 4:01 ), making fun of the Poznań culture ( 3:35 ) and so on.
This whole video just stinks of negativity, rudeness and nasty vibes. Enjoyed your past videos but this just isn't it. Plus you doxed Jakub's full name and his surroundings. Unsubscribing
