4:10 fun fact: During WW2 one of the most common foods eaten was lobster. It was so cheap and there were so many of them that it was one of the only meats not rationed. Later overfishing lead to lobster becomming much more rare and turning into the expensive luxury food we know it as.
5:19 i never imagined how similar we mexicans and brazilians are, in Mexico we also eat bolillos every day, greetings to the Brazilian brothers and sisters 🇧🇷🇲🇽
The ants are from some christian cartoon called "Histórias de Formiga" (Ant Stories), the main character being Smilinguido Since brazil is a very christian country, it's not too alien to see older houses having something of that classic cartoon
3:25 the really wholesome thing about the rio movies is the main bird his species was considered extinct in the wild, and it brought light to the fact there are projects to bring them back from extinction and now they are back in protected parts of Brazil
the thing with that is we dont even know their current population so we are pretty sure they are back somewhere but we have no f*cking evidence to confirm that. Source: i am brazillian and learned this in school
2020 was a weird year ngl Here in Brazil our rightwingers had a phase though the entire year of loving a certain eastern european country because of its peculiar ways of protesting...
5:17 The average Brazilian household is too much like an average Indian household... even the dog is the same! (I mean we don't eat that every morning but everything else is accurate)
5:25 that's a Christian Cartoon called "Smilinguido", that talks about values for children. These were popular in the 2000's. Also, these cloths say "Christ lives in me when..."
06:32 belgium is the successor to rome because the frankish kingdom was in modern day belgium when it was founded and one of its kings, Charlemagne founded the holy roman empire
4:04 goddamnit you got me, I see "best homemade dinner on the planet" and I'm looking at that thinking, damn that does look good, potatoes a little undercooked tho-- "All of the UK eats like the Germans are still flying overhead" I laughed but also felt personally attacked lol. Though now looking closely, the guy who posted that's name is "Alfonzo Di Frasino" and he definitely has either a French, Italian or Irish flag next to his name lmao.
I was just thinking, a rich stew with boiled potato and fresh buttered white bread, damn that meal hits the spot fantastically. The other thought was "England changing its diet again to being food you can take over the world with again"...
about the brown brazilian plates... THEY ARE AS STRONG(or maybe even stronger) AS OLD NOKIAS, also the cloths are wrong, they vary a litle bit and they dont always have ants. But eeruthing else is right.
When Drew showed the image of the sidewalk in suburbs in the US and said it was bad I thought of how sidewalks in suburbs are here in Greece in the Balkans were the sidewalks are all FULL of cracks in them and have random trees and garbage bins blocking the entire sidewalk, so you are forced to walk on the road.
Sidewalks in Indian cities are often encroached upon by temporary shops set up by small businesses. Unless you are shopping, you have walk on the road due to these numerous small shops.
1:44 Correction UK 🇬🇧 did become a republic after the English Civil War but returned to being a monarchy because of the puritanical rule of Oliver Cromwell so once he died parliament invited Charles II back in order to restore the monarchy in Britain.
Mario and Luigi are supposedly Italian by race and Italy may or may not exist in their universe. They live in the Mushroom Kingdom. Anyway, their Italian status makes just as little sense as any real world race/country status would, so them welcoming you to Japan is ok.
3:55 The reason they’re in Japan is because they were actually made in Japan but the creator made them Italian for some random reason (he probably loves spaghetti)
Petition for Drew to make a series covering Ace Combat and its multiple universes: [Day 155] Operational Requirement F.155 was a specification issued by the British Ministry of Supply on 15 January 1955 for an interceptor aircraft to defend the United Kingdom from Soviet high-flying nuclear-armed supersonic bombers. Discussion about the need for a new supersonic interceptor had been ongoing for some time in the early 1950s, and several designs introduced, but improving radar systems and weapons mooted the need for better aircraft in the short term. Information about new Soviet supersonic bomber designs emerged in 1954, sparking serious consideration for the first time. The Requirement emerged as a much larger and longer-range system than previously studied. The Requirement called for aircraft to be in service by 1962, the same date as the Tupolev Tu-22.
5:25 The reason why these have an ant on them is because that ant is a character from a Christian comic and these always come with a nice biblical message
die zeit das reichtangle zu bekommen reicht für leute die es kaufen können (the time to get the reichtangle is enough for people that can buy it) see what i did there? i used reicht (slang version of bekommen that every german probably used at least once) in combination with reicht angle
When Drew gets married, he will be married to a Brazilian because he’s never been to Brazil. You know what happens when you don’t go to Brazil true Brazil comes to you.
