John having Jyoji there was great! , Peter is a lucky man to have such a wonderful son and is Jyoji to have a wonderful dad as Peter, Yes yes yes you are wonderful too, it's always nice watching your live streams. Keep up the good work!
That sandwich episode is the first video of yours that my husband and I ever watched. We’ve been fans ever since. Also, Japanese sandwiches look incredible!
To everyone complaining about the poor audio, there is not a lot that can be done for these livestreams. John and other UA-camrs are held hostage by Google/Alphabet/UA-cam and the App they make for mobiles. The problem with an external microphone is it starts getting interference from cellular signals and the audio will sound garbed and terrible. This is true on iPhone AND Android. It's not a platform thing its just a limitation of the technology (GSM/CDMA). A wired mic won't play well with the gimbal and I have yet to find a solid bluetooth solution. Ultimately it's up to Google/Alphabet/UA-cam to improve the software.
Not exactly, the problem hasn't always been there. The iPhone has several microphones in fact but the more recent software from Google/Alphabet/UA-cam favors the mic of on the display side of the phone and filters out a lot of the ambient noise. Unfortunately that ambient nose includes those talking at a distance or off camera. Further, the app tends to favor the microphone located on the display side of the mobile phone NOT the one pointed at the subject. That's why it sounds so distant and muffled. The app should be using the mic located closest to the active camera or at least give the option of switching the mic being used.
Sup Nosh, I do believe he can just get a external mic so he can control the mic audio better, and also would help with the wind filtering. I definitely seen other vloggers using something like that. Obviously that is up to John, but I think it would help with audio quality
Naptime875 pick a model number of any external microphone for the iPhone. Next, find the manual by google searching the model number + “pdf”. That should get you the manual for the product. I guarantee you the manual will say to put the iPhone in airplane mode before using. Why? Because the cellular signal will cause interference with the recording. In airplane mode (no data) the mic will be useless for any live-streaming.
That episode about the different types of japanese sandwiches was awesome. That was the very first Only In Japan video I watched, and the one that brought me to this channel. The narration by Peter was great, I loved it, it left me with a craving for a boxed sandwich, the first chance I got to buy one, I did. Its in the US of course, so it wasn't as good, but it did kill the craving.
You may be able to add a crispy crunch back to the baguette, I have never tried it with Japanese bread, just American. You pop the fresh loaf in the oven (on the rack) with a small pan of water on a lower rack or of you don't have multiple racks you can spray the bread with a mist of water then bake for 10-15 minutes at 350°. If the bread is stale and hard you can actually dip it in water like a sponge, wrap in foil, bake for 10-15min at 300° then uncover and bake an additional 5min.
Hey, I loved that story when joji was eating his sandwich. Thought it was very cute...Like you. Nice little 7-11 sandwich video. Just found you.. love your videos. Best wishes from Bethlehem pa
When I visited Tokyo on an educational visit, several of of the students always looked for a McDonald’s or Denny’s. It was so disappointing that they would not go outside their comfort zone of food. My favorite meal was our first morning there, we ate at a small restaurant, in an alley, by the Tokyo fish market. It consisted of about 4 courses and was amazing; miso soup with baby clams, rice, assorted sashimi, octopus (not my favorite), egg. It was wonderful. We spent the rest of the day crisscrossing Tokyo on the subway, and didn’t eat a full meal again until dinner (McDonalds, ha ha, only because we were tired and it was at our hotel).
i watched both videos and it was amazing i went and made some off the sandwiches at work just so i could taste what u were talking about it was very cool and my favorite of the ones i did was chicken sandwich were i deep fried the chicken then baked with BBQ sauce then placed between bed and trim the edges
Crust on cheap bread is worth cutting off, but crust on a good sourdough or baguette is uhmaaazing! Great for dipping in soup, or olive oil & balsamic vinegar
How to distinguish between veg and non veg sandwiches and other stuffs in japan? Plz suggest, going to japan next month. And im a vegetarian, really necessary because of that.
Wasn't that Ricca-chan in the light-up dress?? ^_^;; Will buy a chiki-katsu sand from the Family Mart tonight... Really crave one now. And I haven't tried them before (they're quite expensive by local standards).
Nuts.. they were out of chiki-katsu sando. So I will have to make do with a Teriyaki Chicken sandwich. I notice they are starting to add local flavors - there was a Percik (Perchik) Chicken sandwich too - Ayam Percik is a Kelantan dish. Also two or three new flavors of onigiri, one was a "anchovy sambal" onigiri, I wonder if one day they won't just make a "nasi lemak" one as well. Complete with nori wrapper but the rice would be cooked with coconut milk and pandan, and there'd be some squid "sambal" in the middle, maybe even a slice of cucumber.
Yes Mr./Master Miyagi would be so proud! You came back to Japan and married your Japanese girlfriend. Whose honor you fought for all those years ago. You go Daniel Son!
When I travel, I eat what is in the country. What is the point of going to another place if one just eats western chain food. On my first visit to Japan with my son, he wanted to try Burger King. I just sat there while devoured a five eat pad burger. I had something outside. 😍
You should always try to ask permission but the staff at convenient stores can’t say yes or no. They aren’t the owner. It can take more than a month for permission to be granted to film and even then, you’ll have to decide an exact time and send a script to explain your content. To avoid inconveniencing the busy people at 7-Eleven with my request, I simply did NOT focus on the people, show their face, did not disturb anyone with the camera or blocking other customers. Be discrete. If you do get faces in a place without permission, blur the faces. Pick places used to dealing with tourists too. Central areas if you can. On the street, you’re okay as long as you do not focus the camera on any one person. I try my best to adhere to the rules. It’s hard to be perfect. In Japan, you’re expected to be. At local store, it food to have a business card to exchange with the owner and explain what you’d like to film. People almost always say yes and you often get more background in your videos. Business cards are very very important in japan and it’s something tourists should consider making just to hand out when they make friends too.
In Australia 7 11 store the sandwich is not match range than Japan . I like japanese 7 11 store because i can buy beer fruit sandwich any sandwich i can think of. This is the reason why where comes to retail con
Any chance you could get some kind of microphone for your live stream setup? It's pretty hard to hear what Peter was saying here and a lot of the other recent streams outdoors have been difficult to hear. I've seen you can get little ones that attach to the top of the iPhone which might be useful. edit: oops, looks like you literally talked about this! Hopefully it will be solved soon.
Drinking in public places. only in Japan where's the cops surprised they do that. any where else go to jail people don't like to share their food John makes them share funny see thier faces when he tells that thier sharing In all his videos he doesn't see it they make gag faces like really get your own. he doesn't see it even his wife look it up in his videos funny John don't be so cheap buy them thier own

The shop looks so lively with lots of options and fresh too.
Love it when you live stream with Peter and Jyoji! They crack me up! Jyoji is such a ham like his dad. 🥪🍺
Good job John, finally feeding Peter. :-)
Another excellent episode!
The collaborations with Peter are a lot of fun.
Hey, I loved that story when joji was eating his sandwich. Thought it was very cute...Like you. Nice little 7-11 sandwich video. Just found you.. love your videos. Best wishes from Bethlehem pa
I love Jyoji. He is wonderful!!! 💖💖💖
Very informative video, John! I'll definitely try the convenience store sandwiches on my next visit in Nov. THANKS!
Greetings from Brooklyn!! I love breads with crust too!! 🖒😃🍞

It looks more classy without the crust. I love the crust on my sandwiches 🥪
Love your videos man! Keep it up! 😁
i watched both videos and it was amazing i went and made some off the sandwiches at work just so i could taste what u were talking about it was very cool and my favorite of the ones i did was chicken sandwich were i deep fried the chicken then baked with BBQ sauce then placed between bed and trim the edges
About time you got Joji back. Now your video will be rated to a 10+
I was in Japan just recently and John I was looking for you! 😆
Wow 3 gangsters in the house!!!!! Ha joiji how bout my beer!!!!! 😂
Crust on cheap bread is worth cutting off, but crust on a good sourdough or baguette is uhmaaazing! Great for dipping in soup, or olive oil & balsamic vinegar
I visited Tokyo for nine days, I think I ate at either 7-11 or Family Mart everyday!! I know all about these sandwiches and the Tory whiskey lol
Watching John with Joji shows what a fun dad he’ll be with Rio!!
Would love a podcast with you two!
That kid's a natural vlogger lol!
Dude wants a Hero/Sub/Hoagie/torpedo it's his daddies genes...no?
7-11 Japan is overwhelming but their food is probably better than other convenience stores in Japan.
Poor crust! I love the crust on the 🍞!! I can eat a sandwich all day, everyday!
Dude, that Sando Video BLEW UP! CONGRATS
You made me go make a ham, egg, and cheese sandwich too. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Great 7 Eleven video
joeji so funny rolled his eyes @ uncle john
I loved the Sando episode.
How to distinguish between veg and non veg sandwiches and other stuffs in japan? Plz suggest, going to japan next month. And im a vegetarian, really necessary because of that.
OMG I love ジャパニーズ・サンド!!
Joji is a sweetheart and a ham at the same time! Love him!
I think when Peter said the egg salad flavor is ubiquitous I want to say they add in a kewpie type of mayonnaise and ajinomoto aka msg.
Peter you are so awesome and amazing 😊
One of my theories of taking off the crust is for presentation
John i love the moment when u see a Shinkansen 😆
Really fun livestream!
I do cut the crust when I make a sandwich but when I'm making a toast with a french baguette I leave the crust.
joji is a natural and sometimes his dad wants to punch John in the face ( hey Peter if you reading this, don't you ? )
Peter's patience is unbelievable-its the stuff of fables.😄
love the GO series, but you need to bring a mic along because we can never hear anyone but you John.
Nice video.
It looks nice
What???? Mcds??? Man thats such a shame!!! Love the japanese foods!!! Thx for the stream Guys
steven verhaegen Yeah I agree. The Japanese mcdonalds is a little weird I think but still.
Any more snack shops? 😊
here i love crusty bread. it is even better if it is still warm..
Konnichiwa minna san Joji is so smart, Have a blessed sunday
Jyoji! So cute!
Wasn't that Ricca-chan in the light-up dress?? ^_^;; Will buy a chiki-katsu sand from the Family Mart tonight... Really crave one now. And I haven't tried them before (they're quite expensive by local standards).
And what the heck is "Strong Zero"??? ^_^;;
Nuts.. they were out of chiki-katsu sando. So I will have to make do with a Teriyaki Chicken sandwich.

My dad never liked bread/sandwich.
Breakfast=rice&coffee
Lunch=rice
Dinner=rice&beer or sake
Yes Mr./Master Miyagi would be so proud! You came back to Japan and married your Japanese girlfriend. Whose honor you fought for all those years ago. You go Daniel Son!
Do 7/11s just play midi versions of songs?
John, when Peter (or someone else) is speaking you must share the microphone - it's very hard to hear Peter!!! :(
When I travel, I eat what is in the country. What is the point of going to another place if one just eats western chain food. On my first visit to Japan with my son, he wanted to try Burger King. I just sat there while devoured a five eat pad burger. I had something outside. 😍
When it comes to a baguette I like crust. As for sandwich bread(box bread)...cut it off!
John! I'm in Japan now for a month! So strange watching this here 😂 any tips on filming in stores? I've been avoiding it since idk if it's allowed.

In Australia 7 11 store the sandwich is not match range than Japan . I like japanese 7 11 store because i can buy beer fruit sandwich any sandwich i can think of. This is the reason why where comes to retail con
Hi, Ralph Macchio! I'm a big fan of Karate Kid!

Darn you John, no you can't say that don't disgust people please
Japan ! So Japan
Any chance you could get some kind of microphone for your live stream setup? It's pretty hard to hear what Peter was saying here and a lot of the other recent streams outdoors have been difficult to hear. I've seen you can get little ones that attach to the top of the iPhone which might be useful.
edit: oops, looks like you literally talked about this! Hopefully it will be solved soon.
Jenifer will not be happy
The audio isn't too bad.... I mean I've heard better and I've heard worse.
Can John find medication in Japan for his ADHD?
That was funny
You alright on money? Seemed a bit awkward.
or it fits in container better
Drinking in public places. only in Japan where's the cops surprised they do that. any where else go to jail people don't like to share their food John makes them share funny see thier faces when he tells that thier sharing In all his videos he doesn't see it they make gag faces like really get your own. he doesn't see it even his wife look it up in his videos funny John don't be so cheap buy them thier own

Please tone it down with the channel plugs just a little bit John.
ONLY in JAPAN Thanks
