Does he acknowledge his subtitles at some point I'm this video? Can you link it? I left a comment to him a while back saying how the fake subtitles he uses for foreigners were funny the first couple times , but they eventually take away from the video and just become annoying that I can't follow the conversation.
He is genuine and not afraid to be himself. Something more people should strive for. You can also tell he was built for this travel-lifestyle, he strikes me as a guy that could do this sort of thing for decades
I needed to hear this. I just recently got into making content and looking at the analytics is depressing which leads people to pander to their audience and release lower quality work, I was really considering following trends that didn’t align with the work I wanted to make. But hearing this make me feel better and inspired to make some undeniably good shit
Dude you’re so right. Keep it up. My gf and I love watching the videos. We love how authentic everything is in comparison to other channels. And unrelated but you are also responsible for us saying “ripping cigs” way too much
Connor, you are fast becoming one of my favourite youtubers, and I enjoy these Pod-casts just as much, if not more than your regular videos, the pure honest truth without all the fake bs is incredibly refreshing and insightful and inspiring to me, as I have also had similar ideas for content creation and you are just solidifying them even more, so thanks bro! I look forward to meeting you somewhere on your/my travels in the next few years.
You're not wrong, quality should be the top priority. But remember that people gotta eat man. Some are happy just making low-to-mid tier content if it pays the bills. At the end of the day, its also about survival, and if it works, it works. You can definitley make the quality over quantity model work, just make sure you're smart with your money, or you're likely to be hurting between uploads or breaks etc.. Keep up the good work man. The channels are great and we look forward to more adventures and shenaningans.
Nah i really enjoy ur podcasts, keep them up, im binging all ur videos AND RUNNING OUT OF STUFF TO WATCH!!!!!. UA-cam was real dry till you pulled up🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I show everyone I know your vids they’re phenomenal, I feel like they’re an amazing view into what a normal person would experience traveling the world, I look forward to all your posts.
Video Idea? Curious if you would ever do a video on what you packed for your backpacking trip when you first started the UA-cam channel? It'd be cool to see what you used everyday and what items you brought that you never used. (I'm planning for something similar rn)
Unorganized babbling, but I watched the whole thing and will continue to watch your channels. The genuine realness and authenticity keep me coming back. Do not change bud. The cut to one of MY favorite Superbad quotes was clutch. Why are you sitting by yourself? Who are you Steven Glansburg?
as a fellow constant traveler that tried youtube for like a month and just decided to enjoy the travels instead. I love the videos, keep em up and please don't stop the subtitles
I totally agree about the quality of what you post on UA-cam. But polished quality is not what I want to see, some have lots of cool titles and effects. And the videos are so overproduced that it becomes boring to watch. For me it is the story, but most of all the person and personality.
"the only safe sex is with me, sweetheart" you got me cracking the fuck up. your sense of humor is deeply appreciated. you've become my favorite youtuber
that’s why your a legend everytime you post it’s a good quality video and worth watching and I know before seeing it that it will be just because all your videos are like that legend
Good to hear from you, someone's got to travel! Just watching Kevin Smith, the director, at his theater in Jersey talking film with the director and actor of the flick, Krazy House. Very supportive of indie film. Been on PR with new movie 'The 4:30 Movie'. He recently mentioned sometimes 'good enough is good enough' though his quality and vision I think is up-there. Recently, had a long talk with Theo Vonn on Theo's pod. Vonn and David Spade want to put together a film; and Kevin gave advice to the smaller indie person. Has to be someone out there with a way to rigg up a light weight ballast for your camera. Prob means it's time to hook up with filmmakers. All I could come up with was rocks and string. Wind plays well, so you want it at times. Good luck with the new plan. You and your gal have an opportunity to share experiences that could enrichen (I know that's a made-up word) the lives of others who don't get around 2 much. I know I enjoyed many of your vids, they really showed what it was to experience places I could only imagine in that 'real way' of yours. Just keep diplomacy to the forefront. And, thanks for the tip on the Rick book.
Love both your channels Conner. Don’t forget Harald Balder…he is definitely a no sell out travel blogger. Keep doing what you are doing because we like real and raw…
I never disparage the Earth but the wind does suck especially when I don't got a car & ride a bicycle for transportation. And what sucks worse than wind is cars !!
I do want to produce better content for my specific niche, but I at the same time I didn't even know how to talk to the camera and you have to start somewhere. Hopefully I'll get better at it.
Hey bud, why not join up with EricSurf6, he’s also a UA-camr in Japan, he does a lot of food vending machine videos I think you guys can relate somewhat. Maybe do a podcast with him and his family. Love you man, keep up your awesome videos.
Mate I've been traveling over 4 months so far and making vlogs and I'm getting hate because I say how it really is 😂 I don't know...but like you said those UA-camrs faking it and sugar coating everything 😂
I don't know about the economics of doing a UA-cam channel but as a viewer I don't bother watching old videos from channels that produce daily videos whereas I do watch old videos from this channel because they're great and timeless. I even watch some of them twice, the first time by myself and then again to show a friend. So you'd think that quality over quantity rewards over a longer period and is also more fun and less stressful. Unless of course you live paycheck to paycheck, in which case you do what you gotta do.
You have the small brained pod and small brained American channels. Is there another channel? Enjoy your content so just want to make sure I’m subscribed to it all. Thanks!
I agree with everything you are saying. Quality over quantity… that’s why I love your videos. Because you are real and you are all about the art of Vloging. Such an inspiration and a Boss! Keep going man, your real fans understand you!
Coming from a place of love, it’s hard to push the point of only releasing quality, in a slow tediously long video of Crap. Grid & get hungry. You’re not Quentin Tarantino… Quentin works his Ars off between films. Grind & Stay hungry. Rooting for ya but you’re not about BS. So this is the harsh truth. GL 🙏🏻
Reminds me of this UA-camr who used to be my favorite (Outdoor Chef Life). He made QUALITY fishing and cooking videos years ago, but after the pandemic who started selling out and focusing more on gaining views and sponsorships. It felt very disingenuous and felt turned off by it. It’s a shame what UA-cam does to people and how money ruins the best things in life.
Conner !! Here’s my update since your previous video about my travel. I’m just over 1 month on the road right now in Peru. 2 weeks in the Amazon, 1 week in the north coast of Peru for a beach getaway, 1 week in Lima / southern desert. Now I’m in Cusco. I did Machu Picchu, and I’m heading to Lake Titicaca next. My trip ends Oct 10 and then I begin my career in Chicago. I don’t want to wish away the rest of this trip but Japan will be the next international travel I do. Once I start working I’ll have money to join your patron. #KeepAmericanBrainsSmall
When you say Asian is really safe, I’d only agree about East Asia. Japan, China, South Korea, Taiwan are the safest. South East Asia can be ok, but there can still be some dodgy shit. Singapore being the safest country in SE Asia. Central Asia and Middle East isn’t even considered Asia to the East Asians. There’s a Chinese novel called Journey to the West and it’s about going to India lol
Please keep the funny small brained subtitles, your humour makes my day everytime
Does he acknowledge his subtitles at some point I'm this video? Can you link it? I left a comment to him a while back saying how the fake subtitles he uses for foreigners were funny the first couple times , but they eventually take away from the video and just become annoying that I can't follow the conversation.
@@Staring4827 not in this video, but i can't remember wich one
Love your videos brother. Zero fakeness. Zero virtue signalling. This sets you apart from 95% of travel bloggers.
💀
Agreed.
dude is based
He is genuine and not afraid to be himself. Something more people should strive for. You can also tell he was built for this travel-lifestyle, he strikes me as a guy that could do this sort of thing for decades
I needed to hear this. I just recently got into making content and looking at the analytics is depressing which leads people to pander to their audience and release lower quality work, I was really considering following trends that didn’t align with the work I wanted to make. But hearing this make me feel better and inspired to make some undeniably good shit
@sameernagra4015
Pass me your channel link and I will sub, I'm about to do the same thing, so just collating ideas and inspiration for now.
Your trip to the northernmost point in Japan was really good to watch.
Dude you’re so right. Keep it up. My gf and I love watching the videos. We love how authentic everything is in comparison to other channels. And unrelated but you are also responsible for us saying “ripping cigs” way too much

Nah i really enjoy ur podcasts, keep them up, im binging all ur videos AND RUNNING OUT OF STUFF TO WATCH!!!!!. UA-cam was real dry till you pulled up🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
By the way, what a relief to see that even an experienced vlogger feels the same discomfort with bypassers while filming :)
I show everyone I know your vids they’re phenomenal, I feel like they’re an amazing view into what a normal person would experience traveling the world, I look forward to all your posts.
I love how honest you are about the social anxiety thing. It’s so relatable.
Video Idea? Curious if you would ever do a video on what you packed for your backpacking trip when you first started the UA-cam channel? It'd be cool to see what you used everyday and what items you brought that you never used. (I'm planning for something similar rn)
Appreciate the blunt people of the world. They actually care the most.
Unorganized babbling, but I watched the whole thing and will continue to watch your channels. The genuine realness and authenticity keep me coming back. Do not change bud. The cut to one of MY favorite Superbad quotes was clutch. Why are you sitting by yourself? Who are you Steven Glansburg?
Wind sucks. I've always thought this.
It blows!
I've given you a like, bro. But you deserve a 1000+ likes from me for your genuine integrity.
as a fellow constant traveler that tried youtube for like a month and just decided to enjoy the travels instead. I love the videos, keep em up and please don't stop the subtitles
I really like your style, direct and to the point. New subscriber from Norway.
Can’t wait to see your videos in India. Was cool seeing you with Ben and Ben.
Yeah, I agree. Backpacker Ben is a favorite of mine. He’s blunt, yet has a reserved side to him.
I totally agree about the quality of what you post on UA-cam. But polished quality is not what I want to see, some have lots of cool titles and effects. And the videos are so overproduced that it becomes boring to watch. For me it is the story, but most of all the person and personality.
Love your stream of consciousness ADHD word salad, it makes the pod more interesting to hear you adlib. Never change!
fr man I know if I see one of your vids im gonna enjoy, keep it up brother
You’re one of the few channels I’ll click on immediately when a new video is uploaded. Keep up the phenomenal work and enjoy the experiences!
Seeing ur videos in my feed; always know my evening is SORTED. 🎉
Thank you 🙏
This is why I love your channel and content, man. Keeping it real!
I totally appreciate u doing ur videos as genuine as possible. I love watching ur videos because of that. Never change ❤
Good content, just wish it was longer on the main
"the only safe sex is with me, sweetheart" you got me cracking the fuck up. your sense of humor is deeply appreciated. you've become my favorite youtuber

11:29 POV: connor picks you up after accidentally fall to the ground on a date 😻
Dizzy from being so in love
11:00 I agree 100% man. But I need a SBA coffee mug in 12 different colors
Love both your channels Conner. Don’t forget Harald Balder…he is definitely a no sell out travel blogger. Keep doing what you are doing because we like real and raw…
pumped to see your new travels bro youre soo gd relatable lol
I hope you’ll tour Fukuoka. My mom is half Japanese and hasn’t been there since 1955. I would love to show her what it looks like today.
5:23 I am ROLLING 😂😂😂😂

Really liked the outside vibe of this !!
From one channel to another! What a wake up call!!!
Mate I've been traveling over 4 months so far and making vlogs and I'm getting hate because I say how it really is 😂
I don't know...but like you said those UA-camrs faking it and sugar coating everything 😂
Best travel dude by far. Keep keeping real man.
The A.D.D is real 🤣🤣🤣absolutely p.ssed myself when you mentioned the teacher sitting at the chair 😂😂😂
Dude! I love this!
I wish I could get blazed with you, get the munchies and watch 80's movies for 8 hours lol. Rock on from Perth, Australia.
We are here smogging out heavy on the croptober harvest, Cheers bahhaha
Well it seems like Japan is going well! Thx for the content.
You're the whistlindiesel of the travel blog space. Never ever clickbait ever.

video #8 of asking you to do more vintage clothing shopping
Agreed, stay real... stay hungry... stay foolish.
Bro I love your videos so much. Would be great if you make video about documents, travelling packaging and this kind of bullshit. Thx
I always wondered about the weird timelines
Your videos are awesome. Thanks!
You have the small brained pod and small brained American channels. Is there another channel? Enjoy your content so just want to make sure I’m subscribed to it all. Thanks!
haha your realness is what makes the content pop, never change and become a fake, reaction, bs, youtuber
Either you are the greatest actor or the realest person on YT. Either way you have my respect.
Yeah bro I absolutely love this
What about your Indian sidequest with bald? I identified the bar in his video, but you weren't there
Everyone is just here enjoying the decent into madness.
One 'real' travel youtuber I enjoy is Van Boys. The guy got robbed in Columbia recently, but he's still having an awesome time there.
Australia is the safest continent :)
I agree with everything you are saying. Quality over quantity… that’s why I love your videos. Because you are real and you are all about the art of Vloging. Such an inspiration and a Boss! Keep going man, your real fans understand you!
don’t change a thing. your vids are perfect!
Poler bears ehh?
Some might say the wind is.....divine.
5:27 we getting a little TOO specific
Will you be posting the video of you in India with B and B and Backpacker Ben?
Keep uploading, you're doing good!
Coming from a place of love, it’s hard to push the point of only releasing quality, in a slow tediously long video of Crap. Grid & get hungry. You’re not Quentin Tarantino… Quentin works his Ars off between films.
Grind & Stay hungry. Rooting for ya but you’re not about BS. So this is the harsh truth. GL 🙏🏻
you gotta post more on the OG channel man
Luv ya broski but Antarctica does
not have any polar bears sir !! O_o
Well, he is known as the Small Brained American, lol…
Reminds me of this UA-camr who used to be my favorite (Outdoor Chef Life). He made QUALITY fishing and cooking videos years ago, but after the pandemic who started selling out and focusing more on gaining views and sponsorships. It felt very disingenuous and felt turned off by it.
It’s a shame what UA-cam does to people and how money ruins the best things in life.
Hey brother can you please add an link for your second channel on your main channel?
smallbrainedamerican one word

Bought a shirt because your videos are fire
