How about pinning thin post?😊
OOOOOH EXCITING! Can't wait!!!.... I can... cause I have to... BUT SERIOUSLY YAY!
Not to uh, sound punchable here but uh, FAH's Patreon - another thing you can believe the hype for...
Already there lads !!
Can’t wait for that 👏
Airlines these days really do have a way of teaching us not to get too attached to our earthly possessions. Really, we should be thanking them.
Truly humbling experience
😂😂😂😂
Really clever take😂😂😂😂
Could be worse. If you fly via Air India, you can get peed on.
Life lesson: pack underwear in carry-on for at least 3 days.
“What the bloody f**k are you wearing?” - Said all Indians when Trudeau was visiting India.
Ikr? Guy kept wearing wedding kurtas when he came here, so his wife divorced him .😂😂😂
Oh yeah that was... yeah
Yeah he was literally wearing wedding wear like wtf man ... just wear a regular suit , do your meetings and get lost 😂
Absolutely 100%
That's my embarrassing PM. Now known as our geno side PM. Can't we go back to wedding kurtas?!
They are so polite, to even listen to him instead of punching him in the face after ten seconds.
They don't want to inflict more brain damage than he already has.
They are working hard on their inner peace
I'm glad to see I wasn't the only one thinking that.
@@foilarmsandhogI prefer inner peace achieved thru spitting into Steve's chai latte.
And they clearly knew way more than he did about India
As an Indian I must say, Sanjay describes us more accurately 😂😂
Right?? I went back recently, and chilling with my parents and watching Netflix/Prime was literally all I did (aside from inhaling my mother’s cooking)
@@sabahmerchant1866 Yeah, the pizza part was the only part I *didn't* vibe with (gotta love Indian home cooking).
Replace pizza with any desi dish
I see only... He is targeting Indian utube audiance.
Not really :3
Did Steve hire someone to play a sitar jingle whenever he walks into a room?
That would be hilarious
Like President... Taft, I think it was, who came up with the idea of playing Hail to the Chief every time he walked into the room because he was a bit unnoticeable otherwise.
@@IntensivePorpoise Wasn't Taft quite famously 150kg heavy? I feel like that would be quite noticeable.
@@TetraDax yeah, I picked the wrong short named president. It was Polk (well, his wife, I actually remembered that part all along but left it out of my original comment for brevity).
Nabbed this quote from Wikipedia:
"Polk was not an impressive figure, so some announcement was necessary to avoid the embarrassment of his entering a crowded room unnoticed. At large affairs the band ... rolled the drums as they played the march ... and a way was cleared for the President."
@@TetraDax Famous for getting stuck in a bath tub. Had to have a special, larger one made for him lol
I'm in Varanasi right now and it's peak hippie season. The ghats are full of people who dress exactly like that and talk exactly like that. Nailed it.
Hope you had a good stay in my city.
You at the right time at the right place 😂
Locals never dress like that haha
Ohh if u dont dress in shirt apparently its real funny . Great now i know how to think
"What the bloody f&ck are you wearing?!" 😂😂😂😂 I know Foil is in shorts, but when he's dressed up a bit, it still looks strange to see them 🩳
I have to work with him
That's the new smart casual 😂😂
Foil looks cool in shorts
Yes, it's somehow jarring (in a humorous way) to see the shorts in the outro when he's got shirt and tie on his upper half like an office worker....
Arms is wearing Ann Flanagan's bead necklace
As an Indian Irish, I find this so apt and hilarious 😂
This sketch made for you lol
Hmu ? over coffee ?
@@foilarmsandhogTrue 😂😊
Naa, you are not Leo Varadkar?
@@sublimeranger. Nah. There is more than one Irish Indian in Ireland 🤣🤣
Quote of the Day: “What the bloody f**k are you wearing?”
(One of the best line reading moments)
You really are a UA-cam veteran. I see you everywhere😂😂
@@siaparekh5769 Me? A veteran? Hwhat? (Does hair flip)
Yes, I usually check comments of nearly all videos i watch, and I expect your comments. Every single account I follow and videos that get suggested, you’re there, Ironman
@@uttamkumar1711 Thank you, that’s sweet :)
Heeeyyyyy... I saw you too.. somewhere...
“There was so much to do in the resort anyway.” had me in stitches. This is such a perfect sketch!
Yea I just stayed in how was the best
Reminds me of a yoga class I tried once. Instructor was a young middle class white guy. He welcomed newbie me to the class and scoffed slightly when I said I’d followed a few UA-cam yoga videos, but otherwise I was a total beginner. He mentioned that he’d just got back from India. Several times. He then started the class and his accent suddenly shifted from somewhen in Surrey to deepest Mumbai! My face was like this 😮. I glanced around at all the other people (mainly young white women) taking the class and they were all hanging on his every word. I could almost see his head swelling as his ego inflated! I didn’t go back 😂
sounds ridiculously... sad?
@@moonhunter9993hilarious, I joined a yoga programme here in India, South Delhi, there was white lady in the class, going by the many Hindi tattoos on her, she definitely was here for sometime, with questions like how deep to we have to breath, up to stomach or lower, the class was full of snobbish people so every was joining in the boat, it was sad
I live near Hrishikesh, the Yoga capital & went to this meditation camp for mental issues as suggested by my shrink. There were many such westerners as instructors who were literally preaching natives their own religion & culture, that too wrongly. Ran away on the very first day.
That would’ve made me want to vomit during downward dog.
Every time a foreigner leaves India, a vestige of the spirit of Pt. Ravi Shankar follows them around for 6 months.
😂
That remark from Paul at the end!! *Chef's kiss*
Smiling throughout and then burst out laughing at his comment!
We laughed so much, you can nearly hear it
@@foilarmsandhog Paul himself grins right after 😅
Same
Same
😂
I'm not saying that the Thursday video is the reason I stayed home an extra day to recover from my cold before going back to the ole internship... But it might be one of them...
That is the highest of all compliments
9 out of 10 doctors agree that watching FAH strengthens your immune system!
If the two accepted therapies:"there ,there" or "shape up"--- the first applies for you. Laugh to curedom, laugh .
The Raddison … that’s roughing it 😂
THANK YOU. Someone understands my struggle
i thought Goa was more like Portugal, culturally? i may have heard wrong. (snuffles off to go journal)
@@foilarmsandhogI mean right…once in the Beirut Radisson they ran out of bacon one morning…it’s hell I tell you
@@YxG713 First time I was in Goa I was surprised to see so many churches and Christian shrines. And not a single Hindu temple.
So I'd say you're not very wrong.
More importantly, Goa is kind of a tourist trap. Even among Indians. The plot of Chennai Express is Shah Rukh Khan wanting to party with his friends in Goa but having to go to South India instead.
I'm surprised he didn't go to an Irish pub in Goa 😂
Damn it, that would have been a great addition
This is going back a bit, but Im pretty sure that I once went to a bar in Calangute (Goa) called - I kid you not - "The Shamrock Heart of Scotland English Pub". Not sure whether the Welsh feel bad about being left out...
@@MrMarcusIndiaWales is dry some days 😂
I love how even the time as a river concept is not even Indian philosophy
I'm not sure he cares about borrowing from different cultures 😂😂
Yes, I was ready to comment that it was Heracletus' saying.
@@user-hp7fd1ou3l Isn't ancient Greece like halfway towards India - from the Irish point of view? xD
@@leszekkadelski9569there’s a theory that Buddhist robes seen on those statues that were blown up in Afghanistan were a leftover from Alexander’s conquest of Afghanistan…which nobody has ever managed since :)
@@leszekkadelski9569 Alexander's empire expanded to what is now Pakistan which was a part of the old Indian subcontinent. Some of the kingdoms that were there took influence from Greek and Indian culture.
You've accurately captured the essence of the average white person in India lads 😂 no joke, I've met some Americans who tried to teach me about my own culture lol
I travelled in India for a month in my 20s and met a lot of travel knobs
@@foilarmsandhog it's the epicenter of travel knobs, Arms
@@kedaver263oh I don’t know, I think SE Asia will give it a run for its money…
Hey, I was in Ireland in a small group being shown the Christ Church Cathedral, and after I made the mistake to ask the guide for an explanation on something he said (I'm fluent, but still with a slight accent), a US-American lady started to translate English to English for me. I kid thee not.
@@bob_the_bomb4508Yeah, unlike SE Asia, at least travelers to India aren't buying their way into the locals' pants.
Paul walking in at the end to contrast with Arms' character was perfection.
I'm so happy Paul was there in the end xD What a great punchline
Paul is so good
@@foilarmsandhogwould like to see more of him. He is absolutely hilarious!
Namaste. Time is like a river, you can never touch the same water twice, and I sneaked out of class so that I can watch the new vid because yeah, time is like a river HAHAHHA😂
Nice work!!!
@@foilarmsandhog yup, done that for a couple of times now, HAHAHAHA kinda proud of myself for that 😁
As an Indian I can say most of the stuff said in this video is true, when non Indian friends of mine come back from India lol
My sister did the exact same thing, eventually came home and made a whole Edinburgh spoken word show from her journals. The family listened to aaaalll of it, many times!
I'm sorry I laughed so much at that last sentence
"Well I just stayed in Goa." I'M DYING AHAHAHAHAHHA
I LIVE THERE IT'S ALL SO TRUE
😂😂😂 best doomdah riffing from Paul there 😂😂😂
Arms looked speechless 🤣
@@SamFAHnthafinally! You commented. The whole rite of watching FAH skit, laughing, sharing and reading comments is almost complete. Now where's @IntensivePorpoise ? And the rest.
@@michellebyrom6551 She was here!!! Like any of us would be able to stay away for long 😂
@@michellebyrom6551 **appears behind you**
You rang?
Paul slowly makes his way to infiltrate Foil Arms and Hog lol
Mesho channeling his inner Colombo with that mackintosh...must be from hanging out with all the lawyers and cops in his other day job...
Defo! Serious detective vibes
Foil sneakily holding the script as if its a prop
You win detective prize
On a side note guys if you do ever visit India, visit the temples of the south, the Ganges in Haridwar & Varanasi & the backwaters in Kerala. As a South Indian I can tell you that you will really rediscover yourselves in these places!
And we love you Arms for including our local names Hindustan & Bharat!
Paul is to Foil Arms and Hog what Billy Preston is to the Beatles. A rare extra piece of pizzazz.
hahaha He will LOVE THAT
McDonnels Curry - Makes Food Taste Great
Just add boiling water
OOH
Oooooh 😂
It's finger lickin good
For those who don't know: Goa is a small state in india which is the most European non European place in the world.......even more European than UK
'I just stayed in Goa' man they researched it well lmao.
I even went to India for a month years ago in preparation for this sketch
@@foilarmsandhog and where did you stay? Goa?
Nice of you to upload this while I am on vacation in Goa.
Not staying in the Radisson, though.
I hope Emirates won't lose my bags on the way home.
As a desi person, this version of 'Steve' is the most punchable character in the FAH universe. Make of it what you will 🤣
This was so well done I struggled to watch it. Top notch knobhead acting! And Paul stealing the show at the end there - of course!!
Travel Knob Guy strikes again! 🤣
That last line was the most satisfying things i've ever seen on youtube. Thank you so much.
You're very welcome
I go home to india and watch tv and have pizza with my parents...The fah guys really hit it home there 😂
HAhahaha, Hialrious!! Amazing how many niche references you included like staying at a fancy resort the entire time, visiting Goa, calling McDonalds "local cuisine", the f**in henna :D
I've been to India and met these people, I'm not even exaggerating
To be fair I do go to a McDonalds (or a similar chain when unavailable) once, whenever I travel and sample the country-specific stuff they have. Those carry some local cuisine elements. I sure did it in India too. What I remember is, they didn't have red meat, they only had chicken or aloo (veg option). Burger King had mutton though.
100% correct... But thats not local cuisine.. we are as conservative about our food as Italians... So please dont insult indian local food by comparing it with MacDonald or kfc.. 😅😅
@user-qf5nc7pw7r it's made by local chefs, which means it's local food.
I see Hog made it back! 😂
And good luck getting that henna off 😄
It's still on my hand as I type
It looks nice though
@@foilarmsandhog Sharpie🖋️😅
I'd say he'll have more trouble getting the necklace off, with an ego that big after the trip haha
@@foilarmsandhog If you didn't let it sit on your skin long it should fade fairly quickly. Otherwise, it might take a couple of weeks.
Lemon juice and baby oil (not used together) can speed up the process.
As an Irishman of Indian descent this is bleeding amazing 😂😂😂
Arms, I love you but that was a very punchable performance 😄 Loved Anne’s necklace making an appearance!
I've done so many punchable performances lately... I'm going to have to watch myself
And yet, we’re still not annoyed 😁
1:44 “You wouldn’t …”
“understand …”
Hog was trying hard to hold in his laugh, and it fits both the character and the character break haha😂
1:56 Usually, I’m incensed by the term ‘chai latte’ but it’s Arms in a sketch so it’s fine 😂
You were supposed to be incensed! Damn it!
@@foilarmsandhog Haha got you! 😂
I do like chai but I cannot order a chai latte, it just confuses me to no end.
Chai is *meant* to be made *in* milk. Namaste, and you can't drink the same chai twice.
Talking of pretentious and poorly translated ways of saying tea in English, the one which incenses me is boba. I have developed a game of telling Americans who think it is hip to call their Tea Shop this what it actually means in Chinese. Most choose to change the name shortly after.
Not that transformational of an experience... Chai. Just chai. 😭😂
That’s not what the Radisson menu said.
Yeah, Chai means literally tea 😁like the guys who order naan-bread
Amoebas made my India experience completely unique and...unique. I loved my experience there, but I don't intend to return. The amoebas looooved me too much! LOL!
@@fuchurZero Right? I laugh when I see "chai tea" on a menu. I realize it's a clueless way of saying masala chai, but it is amusing.
After all these years, I can't believe that Travel Knob Guy still hasn't changed his ways (and his clothes)!! Hilarious sketch! 🤣👍
He's always ready with a smug take on life
😂 Oh the Travel Bore - absolute classic sketch character! Everything they do is **the best** 🙄
This is one of my favs for this year so far! 😂
Thanks! Glad ya enjoyed
Has the bore ever met the snob?
The thing is your first sketch I ever saw was the countries' Risk game, which had Paul in it. He's like a fourth member. Like Monty Python had their "associate pythons", you have Paul.
Arms is my inner me every time i take a bubble bath during exam season
I don't take enough bubble baths
@@foilarmsandhog maybe you should do that more
You know what I like most of this sketch? Foil’s incredulous looks and the “Emirates lost my bag.” 😂 I hope this didn’t happen to you in real life!
At least it's included
He wrote that particular line so I think he's just giving it socks
What does that mean? 😅 To give it socks?
@@katharinaeveliina means your really going for it
@@katharinaeveliinaEmirates only lost his socks.
And this is why I never talk about my time walking in the Himalayas in Nepal, where I reached Goyko Ri - only 17,500ft, (over 5,000m) - but where I could see 4 of the top 10 tallest mountains in the world, including (obvs) Everest. 😉
Most mountain climbers just get asked about how many dead bodies they pass.
Wonderful! You got all the cliches right. Heheehe...
Thankfully, tourists now are more educated and don't ask me if there are elephants walking on the streets of Mumbai/Delhi.
We still have the cows, though.
Yes! I remember meeting one down an alley in Varanasi, and just having to turn around.
@@foilarmsandhog Hahhahahaha...They're not hard to find. But (now) illegal to eat.
Wow.. "Bharat" @0:22 . You do know about the internal politics going on about "Bharat" vs "India" ! :) Well researched:)
He also calls India "Hindustan" at 0:59 so you are wrong.
I think he was talking more along the lines of wanting to be more authentic. Like there are people who say 'Deutschland' if they want to be pretentious and sound 'authentically' German.
The average male Gora experience includes being repeatedly offered copies of the Kama Sutra!
The research!
Baharat. Hindustan.
Well done from Pakistan 😅
Which is funny because a lot of Indians just call it India. Particularly in the South, because they find it neutral and not derived from the Northern languages they believe are being imposed on them.
@@rayelgatubelobut there's a plan to change the country's official name to Bharat, no?
And that comes with a lot of resentment from the South because it comes from Sanskrit roots and they speak Dravidian languages.
@@pluviosityNot really. It already is referred to as Bharat in most Indian languages.
@commodoresan7275 ya. What's the confusion here with people na. We always called BHARAT DESAM in the south too.
One of the fascinating features of India is that sometimes a random dude, like a car mechanic or a chef, would come up to me and want to explain the meaning of life or something equally abstract. And every time they were utterly confused why I wouldn't want to listen to their enlightened thoughts. 🤣🤣 We don't get much of this in Poland. 🤣
So the meaning of life according to ancient Sanatana Dharma uh i am kidding... 🥴
Ps. I will haunt you in your dreams.. 😌
Welcome to India... I guess.. 😂
0:17 Spoilers for ‘Eat Pray Love’
Man, when that movie came out, so many white women went to my country (Philippines) seeking the same experience. Except they wanted to do it in a country where the prices were cheaper, there were more beaches and most of the locals could speak English.
@@invaderzam People took detours from Bali? Lol and also definitely not surprised
As an indian, seeing white guys here is exactly that they described to be
I'm sorry you had to see it again here
This was such a genius sketch! Maybe could be a start of a new “When a white guy visits ___” series, that would be so amazing 🤩
You lads are really gonna make Thursday the best day of the week!
I second that...
Africa needs to be a destination...
Arms in this is like me after I’ve been to my meditation class… the next day, I’m back to being more like Paul…
‘What the bloody f**k!?’ 😂
The ‘Zen’ soon wears off 😅
Kevin is not Zen. Zen is emptiness, and Kevin is full of himself. 😅
Oh my god I can't put into words how much I love this as a Hindustani 😂😂
Of course I'm more like Paul than Arms, just like every other Indian I know but still.
It's my favourite day of the week. A brilliant new sketch, Hog made it back in time to be part of it, Paul as guest star, the return of TripAdvisor, Foil wearing shorts, a killer Doomdah,...
Also, this is so accurate. I swear my university is full of these people. Some even came back with an accent.
Have a wonderful day!
How are you posting this excellent sketch the SAME DAY my mother is leaving for a yoga trip in India ?!
Hopefully not as a tutorial for her!
Because we know
Having lived in India all my life I always marvel at these white people who come here and suddenly connect with their inner spiritual self in a month. I mean it's been 44 years and I'm not even thinking of my inner self 😂
As an Indian, I confirm McAloo Tikki Burger is the local dish. (I never had it)
I am an Indian living in Canada...once I met a German gentleman who told me that he found spiritual entity during travel to India...even another man was druggist with many past traumas..then he went to India, made some spiritual connection..travelled a lot and it was healing therapy to him.he is a changed man now..honestly speaking I am happy to know that
This is how Megasthenes behaved when he got back to his home 😂
What the bloody f are you wearing!
Just perfect, literally!!
Be careful if you're drinking a beverage. I almost spat out my drink at the closing line 😂😂😂😂. Great job lads!
As an Indian, this is the most accurate thing I’ve ever seen XD
As a white guy currently in India myself, staying at a fancy hotel, this is SPOT ON
Enjoy, great country
Thanks a million
You know who else must be so glad about all the guests lately? The office. I bet it's never been so clean 😂
Imagine them walking in saying: “Sorry for the mess“ after cleaning for hours like in the vintage Anne Oisin vid
@@CaramelHopelesslyObsessed75For some reason I'm pretending not to know, I don't doubt they'd do that 😂
This is so true
Sanjay Oh my God. This was just too good.😅😅😂😂😅😅 as an Indian by nationality and Irish Indian at heart I approve this skit 100% 😂😂
Sketch was brilliant, cracked me up! And please guest star Paul again soon!
We'd love to, he da best
Paul unexpectedly popped up in a mini-series I was watching the other day! Was such a cool surprise! 😀
What's the name of it?
He's very talented
@@Ensign_Roque I don't know about the mini series, but Paul appears briefly in (the truly excellent) Bad Sisters.
@@Ensign_Roque Oh!! UA-cam won’t publish my reply!
It’s Mag-pie M*rders.
Is that going to work this time??
Ha! It (kinda) worked! (Presumably YT has a censor on the second word.)
Spell those 2 words correctly/normally and that’s the title 😊
Kelvin Dawson must be making so much money from that acting with pen course. The BIC company must be so happy! 🤣
This is gonna be interesting 😂
Been hooked to your sketches since, Anne and Oisin and loved all three of your musical talent.
P.S. Please consider doing tour to India, you have major fanbase over here
Sketch Idea: Irish Farmer on a singing talent show
They'd all be singing his songs!
Man that's a good idea, I wonder if ut would be funny too if Mrs Flanagan would force Oisín to take part in a talent show. 😅
He’s got mehendi. 😂😂😂
Arms, I had to giggle when I saw the tattoo... that's gonna be a while coming off! And I loved the looks Foil and Hog were exchanging through the whole thing.
I didn't travel so far like India, but I went to Slovenia last week, so I can feel spirit when you come home, you're still on a holiday. ❤
Perfect! One of your all-time best! Woke up early to watch it! Thank you! ❤
😂😂😂 my head is shaking in the usual typical way out of appreciation for the research that went into the video and saying "wah! Wah!! What a video." 😂😂😂😂
This is glorious, love it so much, thank you for the laughs during chronic pain and chronic vertigo.
I wonder who made that henna drawing for you, Arms?
Maybe he did it himself 😊 He's very talented I heard
@@Ensign_Roque oh, what a coincidencde! I heard the same. He must be really talented then. 😄
My right hand
@@foilarmsandhog And here comes the proof of this lad's enormous and diverse talents.
Bringing in Paul for this one at the end delivering that line was just the icing on the cake! Perfect!
Always great to see Paul in your sketches :D This doomdah was exceptional!
LOVE PAUL ❤ Actually wet myself laughing because of him in the How to Speak Dublin video
No refunds
So many foreigners come to our country India to discover themselves...
... yet we have the most confused population on planet Earth!
Why's that?
😂😂😂. Stereotypes v reality!
Yup we are always confused
Seeing the extras on patreon is a completely different experience I wish I knew what I was missing earlier.
What a final line, landed that one perfectly.
"I lived in Goa" - got me cackling hard!
Yours truly, a Goan living in the West.
Arms you do sincere and sanctimonious so well. Loved Paul's line at the the end.
So which takes longer - building a simple set from a few flats and an item of two of furniture, or clearing enough space to have a tidy office set? I can imagine that if you nudge the camera just a gnat's to the side, you'd catch the tottering pile of things moved out of the way!
Office is SO much cleaner than a few years ago, we have it fully reset before every shoot!
@@foilarmsandhog nice one, well done! That must make a great difference to your work flow. (And generally make for a nicer working environment.)
@@foilarmsandhogbefore every guest arrives you mean?
@@foilarmsandhogThey grow up so fast…😅
'What the bloody fuck are you wearing?' 🤣
That henna drawing is soo good! Who did it and how long did it take?!
And also, there is in fact a very lovely Radisson in Goa 😄
I did it and it took about 15 minutes
@@foilarmsandhog Which "I" replied? Lol
It's always Arms
Please more dates in western-southern Europe!! Like Rome, for instance, or Florence, where apart from local population there are also lots of English speaking people enjoying their holidays.
Asking someone who went to Goa if they visited Taj Mahal is like asking a New York tourist if they visited the Grand Canyon.
The sitar music just cracked me up 😂
That was a fun search in the YT audio library
